accident insurance, and the rejection
ofjust claims for indemnity and death
losses upon strictly technical grounds.

extremely low rates and adjusting
their losses on basis of fairness and
justice, has built up membership of
twenty thousand, and carries an in.
surance of One Hundred Millions of
Dollars.
The United States Mutual Accident
Association has adjusted and paid
honorably and promptly over four
thousand claims amounting to nearly
half a million of dollars, at cost to
its members of only one-half the rates
charged by stock accident companies
and invites all who appreciate homes

A Story Of a Statesman.

A capital story is circulated among
the employees at the State House. 1t is
said that the day of the assembling of
the Legislature, a rural gentleman,
carrying large black-glazed cloth
valise of the style known as "Kenne-
beckers." on which was strapped a
huge bed-quilt, appeared in the shoe
blacks room in the State House base
ment. Depositing his baggage by the
side of the shining" chair, he allowed
his large boots to be made presentable.
When the extensive territory was cov-
cred with brilliant varnish the un-
known requested the "boy" to "send
his valise to his room" ITO your
committee roomp" inquired the boy.
"Naw, to my room-bedroom sonny"
"Why," said the astonished youth,
''members don't sleep at the State
House" eyes, they du," said the
new member, ''and be sure to have my
quilt laid on the bed. Wife said that
city folks seldom had clothes enough,
and I'm used to plenty" The boy
protested that there were no bed
chambers for members, and at last the
now indignant member betook himself
with his baggage to the engineer s room.
where he sat in chair, watching the
revolutions of the big wheel, and
lunched on doughnuts and cheese,
which he extracted from a capacious
paper bag.
After repeated inquiries the new
member found that it was as the shoe
sinner had said-that members did not
lodge at the State House-and he went
sadly out of doors in quest of cheap
boardinc-house.- Boston Herald.

Commissioner of Statistice Nordin
has prepared longevity table showing
from the deaths that have occurred in
Minnesota during the year 1884, the
ages that have been reached in the diff
ferent counties. Seven persons were
100 years old or over at the time of
death. The place of residence, nativity
and ages of these people are as follows:
Dakota county, Ireland, 10; LIE Sueur,
Ireland, 10; Hennepin, Ireland, LOG;
Olmsted, England, 102; Ramsey,
France, l01; Meeker, Virginia, 100
Olmsted, England, 100. Thomas Far
rel of St. Paul, who died few days a.
60 at the age of lip, will probably head
the list for 1885. He was also a native
of Ireland, which demonstrates that the
Irish race thrive remarkably we'll in

MO1alcNtO Normal School.

Editor of the Review:-The Senate
and House committees of the legisla-
ture paid their regular official visit to
the second Normal school last Wednes-
day. say second" because it is the
second school of the kind that was
founded in the State. As to numbers it
ranks first, having at present an enroll
ment very much larger than the one at
Winona which is the oldest in the
State.
This school has asked the committee
for an appropriation of $4,000 for the
purpose of erecting an addition to the
present building. This appropriation
must be obtained, or at the opening of
next school year many who may seek
admission, will have to be turned away
for want of room. The school is now
filled to its utmost capacity, and the
faculty, although an excellent one, is
not large enough for an institution of
this size. Too much work is imposed
on one teacher, and justice cannot be
done to every pupil in the classroom.
The people of Southern Minnesota may
well be proud to have school of this
kind in their midst, but l am inclined to
think that not many appreciate the ad-
vantages derived from it. This institu-
ton sends forth every year number of
we'll prepared teachers who are to be
the educators of the youth of the State,
and prepare some OF. the young men to
fill the seats in the legislature which
may be vacated by those now occupy
ing them.
The State has been very liberal in its
appropriations to the oldest normal
school, because it is the Oldest Its
bmilding is nearly twice the size of the
one of this school; its faculty is larger
by four or five members, and its appa-
ratuses and fixtures are superior. Yet
there are 125 more pupils instructed in
this institution than in the one at Vino
ma, but only with detrimept to both
teacher and pupil. Everyone must ad.
NIT that in class Of 80 or IS justice
cannot be done to every pupil, and
that too much work is imposed on the
teacher. Some of our honorable law
makers may claim that the State is TOO
poor at present to make such an appro-
priation, and that the taxes that will
have to be levied on their constituents,
if it is made, will be too high. They
