A Cheap Insurance Co.

The following extract from late of
ticial report of the Supreme Lodge O.
the Knights of Honor, will interest the
members of the order and all Others
who love to know of the work of mutu.
al benevolence. 1t is dated Boston
April 10:
1t is with great satisfaction that the
Supreme Officers submit the following
statement relative to the Widows and
Orphans Benefit Fund. 1t is well
known that large number of deaths
occurred IN our ranks from yellow fe-
yer during the past year. Aside from
this cause we suffered an unusually
heavy death rate during the Summer
months. Up to July, 1873, our deaths
had never numbered over twenty-one
in any month but the total deaths in
the period of five months were three
hundred and thirty-six, and required
the sum of S670,000 to meet the calls
upon the w. & o. B. Fund,-an
amount greater than had been disburs-
ed from this fund from the beginning
OF the Order, five years previous. To
meet this extraordinary demand two
assessments were laid in November.
two i'll December, three in january,
three In February and two in March.
These assessments have been cheerful
~ met, and orders on the Benefit Fund
have now been issued upon all deaths
up to January Oath, 1879, and the as
sessments now in process of collection
will pay all deaths to March Ist. The
first death in the Order from yellow fe-
yer occurred August 18th, and the Or
der for the benefit upon the same was
drawn October 10th. The last death
from this cause took place November
the 10th, and the order for the benefit
on the same was signed March 2lst :;
orders upon all other deaths by yellow
fever were issued between these dates.
With total loss more than double
that of any other like beneficiary socie-
ty, we have paid in full every benefit
caused by the epidemic, and proved to
the world the ability of our organiza-
tlon to successfully meet the severest
trial. These events have proved the
wisdom OF our system of one general
jurisdiction for the Widows and Or
phans' Fund, and the efficiency of our
laws for the government of the Order.
No extra judicial measures have been
necessary to meet the emergency, and
all consultation required between the
Supreme Officers has been carried on by
letter. Aside from the payment of
death benefits, about $4,000 was con-
trl6uted voluntarily for the relief of the
living, who were in want and suffering
by reason of the epidemic. Fraternally.
IN .. M. A., j. A. CUMMINGS,
Supreme Dictator.
1t will be seen that this order is Il
mutual life insurance society, and those
who know of its work believe it to be
one of the most economical and sure
means of such investment. 1t is said
by one of the members of the lodge in
this place that for every dollar paid in
by each member, fifty thousand dollars
have been paid out, and that too dur.
ing this peculiar time of high death
rate. Each person by joining the Or.
der is insured for $4,000.

nant water which may accumulate.
Where the road is wet from beneath,
there is no better remedy than tile
drainage. 1t will generally be much
easier to sink the water-line than to
raise the road-bed, and one or the other
must be done before good road can
be had.
Rocks and stones should be removed
from the track, as they cause much
damage to the wheels of passing We
hicles, and are a serious source of an
noyance to travellers. The stones which
do the most damage are small and are
brought to the surface by the action of
frost, and may be easily removed with
a crOwbar. This should be attended to
every spring. Loose cobble-stOnes may
be easily removed with an iron garden
rake. 1t would pay well to have man
go over all the roads in town two or
or three times during the season and
remove the small stones as they are
both troublesome and dangerous.
The culverts should be kept in good
condition, so that any sudden freshet
may pass off quickly and not do much
damage. When this is neglected, much
expense is often incurred in making re-
pairs which would not have been need
ed had the bridges been kept in order.
A good road should be wide enough
for two teams to pass each other in
safety, and as free from bad places as
possible, us no more load can be carried
than the team can draw over the worst
part of the road. If one-third of the
load must be left behind because one
eighth of the road is bad, it is quite a
serious loss and heavy addition to the
cost of transportation.
Another thing of great Importance,
out which has received little attention
I'D this state, is the condition of the
roadsldes. In some of the states there
are laws requiring the destruction OF
noxlous weeds, such as the Canada
thistle. Many of the worst weeds have
obtained fOOthold and been spread
over the country by being allowed tC
ripen their seeds by the wayside. How
often we see the owner of field root
up all foul growth inside the fence, but
allow it to grow and seed outside with
out let or hindrance. This is a subiec
which demands attention, and in som,
places people are moving in the matter
If the rOadsides could be mown two O.
three times each season such growtl
would soon disappear, as it never flour
Ishes under frequently repeated NOW
Ings; and no cheaper method can b,
adopted to get rid of such undesirable
plants and weeds. With little care
as good grass may be grown on til,
roadsides as in the fields, which will b.
great improvement to the appearance
of both the roads and the farms through
which they pass, and a benefit to al
concerned Warren BrOwn, in Man
chester Mirror.

on the second floor above the basement,
back of the stove used for cooking.
This, of course, was done at night, and
in the daytime the hole made, was
closed by board that was kept near
the stove. The chimney was built from
the ground up, and as soon as the inside
was reached communication of course
could be had with the basement of the
prison. Pieces of rope and twine of all
kinds were gathered together, until
finally enough was had to enable our
men to descend to determine what next
to do. Then, and only then, were
others than Capt. Flick and lieuten-
ant from his regiment concerned in the
work. After this other officers were
approached until thirteen had Joined in
this undertaking. All were sworn to
secrecy, and all the thirteen were Ma
sons. Among the number was Col.
Rose of the Tooth Pennsylvania vOlun-
teers, who first appeared at this time
Col. A. L. Straight was not of this num-
ber, as at this time he was confined in
cell for attempting to escape before
this.
The first idea was to tunnel into the
sewer and from thence across Cory
street into the James river, but when
the sewer was reached it had to be
abandoned, on account of the great
stencil arising from it. No one could
enter but short distance before being
overcome by the foul air. Then, this
outlet being closed up, it was decided
to tunnel across the street and into an
old tobacco shed used for storing hogs
heads of tobacco. The next time a de-
| fail from thn do 81
Rose managed to get out and step the
distance off, and the tunnel started ac-
cOrdingly. After digging the distance
stepped by the colonel, they started up
and found that they had miscalculated,
as they came up Immediately under the
fence and right under the guards. That
being closed they again started ahead,
and, after going a short distance, found
they at last were right, for after digging
upward they found they had come up
under an inverted hogshead standing
on the dirty floor.
That night was to see the great stam-
pede for freedom and the North. Capt.
Flick gave up his place to go out with
the original thirteen to Col. S. D.
Straight OF Indiana, supposng, of course
he could manage to get out with the
next lot. The first man out of the tun-
mel passed out of the warehouse door,
out across the street, climbed the lamp
post and extinguished the gas right un-
der the nose of the guard, who supposed
the man to be an employee attending to
his duty, and did not say anything or
challenge him at all. The thirteen were
to have One-half hour start before any
more started. AS soon as the time was
up all began great rush to get out,
and it continued until four o'clock a.
m. the next day. Capt. Flick did not
succeed in getting out at all, the rush
was so great.

time Mrs. Ide's calls had brought Alex
(my colored manl who caught the horse
and tied him. He then threw me a
rein which fastened to the cart with
the halter, and wading ashore, we both
easily pulled it out. L procured some
more pieces of harness in place of the
tug-straps, which sank to the bottom,
and we went on our way rejoicing that
it was no worse. l forgot to mention
that we started out to make some fash
ionable calls, and the above incident
shortened, but did not prevent our
making them.
We have had two lots of green
peas, and my radishes look well and

make their fortunes out of it.

The tunnel was first proposed and

valley of the Shenandoah, at the time
OF Lees second invasion of Pennsylva-
