The Mutual Life Insurance Co.

1t is understood that at the late meet
ing OF the Trustees of the Mutual Life
Insurance Company Of New York, the
committee which has had the subject of
retrenchment In expenses under con-
81 1eration for the past two months, made
a report, IN which important economies
were recommended. The report is stated
to have received the unanimous concur
renee of the Board.
The principal features of the recon-
mendations made by the committee re-
lated to a reduction in salaries, advertis-
ing, printing, law, medical and other
expenses.
The purpose of the committee is rep
resented to have been, after full CONSUL
tatlon with the officers of the company,
TO so adjust the econ )mies proposed as
not to impair in any way the capacity of
the institution to conduct its business in
the most effective and successful manner.
1t is SAID that the chief officers of the
company, including the President, ex-
pressed to the committee a desire that
they should participate in any sacrifice
that might be deemed advisable, in Or
der TO dust the scale of expenditure to
meet any prospective diminution of in.
come from the reduced rate of premiums
recently adopted, or from the depressed
condition of the money market in caus-
ing the rate of interest on investments to
recede below existing rates.
As this company has, for many years,
computed Its surplus upon 1, basis of an
income of four per centfrom Investments
it seems pretty we'll entrenched as against
any further proba decline in the value
of money, 50 that the economies to be
put in practice will result in an augmen-
tation of dividends to the policy-holder,
in excess of what they would otherwise
have been.-Adv.

Alarm at the Opera House.
an Entertainment that Almost Ended
in a Panic-Ho,o the Excitement pa,
Cuetled,

an Entertainment that Almost Ended
in a Pdnic-HOw the Excitement pas
Quetied.
Last night vocal and instrumental
concert was given at the Grand Opera
House, under the auspices of the Ladies
Aid of the M. s. II. A., ch was at
tended by over thousand persons. The
concert was under the direction Of Mr.
Clarence Shank, assisted by Thomfs
Gambril, and consisted of q well selected
programme of solos, duets and choruses,
with several fine piano selections. The
participants were Misses Currinder,
johnson, Hirst, Green, Fillman, Breen
and Walters, and Messrs. Carpenter,
Braun tein, Bertolette, Aldrad, Gam
bril, Toner, Booth and Walters. l.. Ely
Quigg also gave recitation and select
read ng, in very entertaining manner
About $50 o'clock fire alarm was heard
on the street, and as fire engine ratified
past the Opera House, some wickedly
thoug ghtless boys in the gallery cried out
"fire," while about dozen more started
for the door and clattered noisily down
the steps. Instantly the alarm spread
ali over the house and the audleuce arose
en- ndsse, with the apparen mt intention of
making united rush for the door.
When the alarm started, Misses Flor
ence Hirst and Emma johnson were
singing duet, "Where Gentle Winds"
and for an instant they paused, evident
ly frightened at the unexpected confti-
sion, and were about to run from the
stage. AT this point Mr.. Edwin Hirst,
father of Miss Hirst, went hurriedly
down to the footlights, and requested
his daughter and her companion to re-
main in their positions and continue
their song. Fortunately the girls obsyed,
and with commendable courage remain
ed upon the stage, and sang with their
accustomed fervor and sweetness. Their
brave conduct, combined with efforts of
Mr.. HiIst and several other gentlemen,
soon quoted the audience, and the girls
finished their songamidst perfect storm
Of applause During the excitement two
women tainted and number of persons
were badly scared, but no one sustained
any realinjury.
The thoughtless boys who started the
panic, deserve an unmerciful thrashing,
as 1t was not their fault that the conse-
quences of their indiseretion were not
more serious. Great praise is due Mr.
Hirst for his presence of mind, and the
girls for the courage, as they prevented
panic the results of which might have
been appalling.

The Temperance Work.

The Ladies Temperance Aid held their
regular weekly meeting last evening, ,and
were addressed by W. X. Sutton and
Rev. F. b. Duval. John Hare was pres
ent, but on account of it being late post
poned his remarks until some future time.
MIR. Duval spoke IN an earnest Kramer
for one hour and a quarter, referring to
the large number of saloons in the city
and the evil effects they have upon socie-
H, He also referred to some OF the laws
Of the country and how far short they fell
of lite protection. Referring to the re-
cent murder, he said it was a crime to
allow murderer to go unhung, and a
double crime to allow the cause Of mur-
der to exist. Alessrs. Byron and Finley
sang solos and the meeting was an excel
lent enc in all respects. 1t was ably pre-
sided over by Mrs. A. A. Laws.

The Democratic party is not as dead al
the Republicans would desire, and that
the stalwarts do not so consider it, is evil
dent from the signs of alarm for the sue
cess of Republieanism in theypresidentia
year. 1t is yet too early Ito form any safe
estimate as to the probable candidates or
either side though the contest for the
Republican nomination is at present con-
fined 10 three persons-Grant, Blaine and
Sherman. The first named is practically
beaten before the fight begins-the he
publican defeat in New York has done
that much at least. 1t has also RELOCATED
Roscoe Conkling to the retired list To-
their fortunes were linked. Conkliui
staked his all on New York and lost. Tn,
blow will be hard to recover from ant
certainly precIudes the possibility o
the gifted lothario obtaining tn
coveted prize, Blaine is confident AM
aggressive and will work for Blaine and N
other candidate. Sherman, too, is selhsf
and grasping, very ambitious and will en-
deavor to secure REORGANIZATION by all pos
sible means at his command. The entire
federal patronage will be brought to hl'
aid and as the representative OF the ma
chine portion of the party Sherman VIII
strive TO reach the coveted goal. Lit is al
