Yesterday afternoon, just after five o'clock,
Mr.. E. C. Chase attempted 10 cross the tracks
of the Grand Trunk road near the freight she'd
with a heavily laden two-horse team. The
team stuck on the rails, and the advancing
train struck the sled and pushed it, with the
horses, quite a distance. Neither driver nor
horses were injured, but the groceries were
scattered in every direction, covered with the
yolks OF hundreds Of broken eggs.

New York Life Insurance Co


The New York Journal of Commerce says:
'Tbe officers of this well known company have
every reason to be proud of their thirty-eighth
annual statement. The income for the past
year was nearly twelye millions of dollars, and
the payments to policy holders over six mil
lions. The cash assets at the first of the year
foot up the magnificent total of $50 800, 1906 80,
while the surplus at 4 per cent. is over seven
millions of dollars, and by the standard of this
State is estimated at ten millions. During
1882 the amount of premiums received increas-
ed 81, 100000 over the previous year, and the
interest on investments $685., 900. The excess
of income over expenditures was So, 7SS, sos %.
This is entirely due to the marked financial
ability displayed by the company's officers in
making investments. The average rate of in
terest now being received by the company up
on its securities is about 3-4 per cent, an ex-
traordinary high rate in these days of low in
terest. Yet the market val9e of the securities
is about two millions in excess of their cost"

The Armory Fair,

The second night of the Armory fair was
fully as successful as was the first. The
storm was SO severe yesterday, so fierce
and continuous, that no one supposed
there would be many in attendance. In
this people were greatly disappointed,
for the large hall was densely
packed with people who thronged around
the different booths, land talked and admired
first one beautiful article and then another.
The exhaustive description given in these
columns yesterday of the opening night
and the different booths, leaves little more
to be added. They are all elegant,and the
hall wears very beautiful garb just at the
present time with its red, white and blue,
which is to be seen on every side. The
people who were expected from Mime
apolis did not make their appearance in
consequence of the snow blockade. They
will be down Friday evening, however,
and participate in the gayeties of the oc-
casion. The pleasures of the evening
were greatly enhanced by music furnished
by Seiberts orchestra. The voting was
commenced last night. Of course, the
first night there is not much exciteme nt
Tonight it will be more interesting and
the enthusiasm will begin to appear,
which will increase as the voting pro-
crosses. Friday night will be big one,
and the spacious hall will be full of
people.
