Cholos. On one plantation 600 inof-
ienslve men were murdered in cold

houses, machinery, etc, have been
burned. and property to the value Of
millions have been wrecked. All for
eigners have fled the valley, one of the
most fertile end productive in Peru.

Secretary of the Treasury, the same bankers and

told them that we could not refund our indebt-

OBITUARY.
SENATOR MATT CARPENTER


This distinguished senator died yesterday
morning in the city of Washington. \ short time
ago he had an attack OF pneumonia. from which
he had almost recovered, when, from impru-
dent exposure very recently. he suffered re
lapse with the fatal result stated. He had also
been suffering from Bright's disease of the kidney
for several years.
Mr.. Carpenter was born in Vermont in 1874
After spending few years at West Point and
afterward brief period in the study OF law with
the distinguished Rufus Choate, he removed West
to Milwaukee and began the career of "A very
brilliant, successful lawyer. He elected a
United States Senator from Wisconsin in 1859
serving one term. He was defeated for second
term but afterward four years later, he was again
returned to the Senate. He had nearly finished
two years of his lust term at the time of his death

THE MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE
COMPANIES STATEMENT

Elsewhere will be found in this issue o.
the Sentinel the tabular statement of the New
York Mutual Life Insurance Company for
the year ending December 81, 1850. There
are special reasons why the present pub
lished statement of this Company will 6e of
interest to holders of life insurance i'm gen.
erai, as well as to those contemplating in
vestment in life insurance. The assets are
of a magnitude not easy to comprehend, ag-
gregating S91, 735. 7s6, a sum nearly twofold
greater than the second largest Company in
America. This vast sum is placed in mort
cages secured by real estate, nearly $54, 000,-
600; in United States and other bonds, up
ward of$l9 00O, GOO, and in loans on collaterals,
more than 81 600 900, which, with the Com
panys own real estate, cash in banks and
Trust Companies, at interest, form the grand
total stated above. Death claims paid dur
ing 1850 amount to $4.324, Az; matured en-
dowments, $1,Gl3,7H dividends to policy
holders, 50, 299, 734: surrendered policies and
additions, 50, sos, TIA total returned to

rate of interest is sufficient to pay them at
maturity-is, on the 4 per cent basis, $685.

81, ga. 767; on the New York standard of =.
per cent, the surplus exceeds ST., 900, OOO
an important gain over the previous year.
In 1879 the Mutual Life entered upon a
new departure which at the time excited
widespread discussion and awakened appre-
tensions of danger on the part OF many of
its supporters and policy holders. The Com
pany that year put into effect reduction of
10 per cert. on the price at which life in
surance had previously been sold. They
encountered harsh criticism from without
and organized opposition from within. The
statement for 1880 juStifies so far the repu-
tation of its management for eminent capac-
Ity. The business OF the Company increases
and its surplus increases. Certainly nothing
further need be said in vindication OF the
integrity of this great Company under a
test which no other Life Company would
undertake, nor in behalf OF the executives
who reduce the cost of life insurance to the
public, and at the same time leave unim.
paired the perfect security of the policy
holder.

ion needle points were sticking into them as she
walked Then a feeling Of drowsiness came over
her. A delightful feeling Of lassitude ensued-a
freedom from all earthly care and woe. Her
babe was warm. and light as feather in. her
arms. The air was redolent with the breath OF
spring; a delightful melody resounded in her
ears. She sank to rest on dcwny pillows, with
the many cold red lights dancing before her in
resplendent beauty. and knew nothing more until
she was brought TO her senses.

4 CALIFORNIA woman sued the Green
Mountain Gold Mining Company to recover
$50, 900 for the loss of her husband who was
killed while in the employ of the Company.
The jury gave her 5000. The defendants
moved for a new trial because the Judge in
structed the Jury that they could consider
not only the pecuniary loss to the plaintiff,
but the injury sustained by her IN the loss
of her husbands society. The case was APP
pealed to the Supreme Court, which said:
We think that the social and domestic relations
of the parties, their kindly demeanor toward each
other the society, were parts of "all the circum-
stances of the case for the Jury to take into
siderauon in estimating what damages would be
Just, from pecuniary point of view especially as
there is nothing in the to show that the Jury
were instructed that they might give damages by
way Of soace.
The California idea is a good one and
ought to be universally adopted. This thing
of estimating a man, husband, father
who in all the relations of life is regarded
as an honorable citizen as the value of a
horse or a mule might be estimated, is not
enough, and the Supreme Court of Califor-
MIA hit the nail on the head when it gave
value to the society" phase of the subject.
