The National Benefit Association of Indian
apol1s, of which an advertisement appears in
another column, is home institution, organ
lied under the laws of the State of Indiana with
its principal Office in this city.
This is not life insurance company, under the
ordinary acceptation of that term, because death
losses are only paid where death is the result of
accident. as distinguished from death by disease
OF natural causes. Where, however death is
the result OF accident and happening within a
gwen time after the accident, the full amount of
the policy is paid to the beneficiary named in
the policy. The chief feature and great benefit
OF this institution is the payment of certain
and stipulated sum for each week that the in
sured is disabled in whole or in part as the result
of accident
TO person dependent upon his daily labor or
vocation for the support of himself family, the
benefits of such an association can hardly be
overestimated The rates charged for this char
acter of insurance are graded according as the
employment of the insured is more or less liable
to injuries to the person, and run from those
styled preferred risks" as, for instance,
countant, to those of specially hazardous for
example, brakemen on freight trains. Thus, by
a judicious classification of employments, the
company is enabled to furnish insurance at the
very lowest rates consistent with prudent man
agement and certainty of indemnity for those
engaged in any kind of business. While this is
an Indiana institution, still it has amongst its
members many of the best known business men of
Cleveland. Detroit, Pittsburg and other cities.
The affairs of the company are carefully and
economically managed, and it is worthy of the
patronage of the public. ''s~

DYNAMITE NOTES.

The Summary Manner in which the Swiss
Council Treated Anarchists.
+ LONDON, Feb. 2-The threat to destroy the
Federal Palace at Bernie had different effect
from that intended by the threateners. The
letter which forwarned the Federal Council of It's
fate was received last Friday. 1t bore the ira
ditional earmarks of the Anarchists, and was
written with red ink. 1t stated that it was the
intention of the writer's to blow up the Federal
Palace, to destroy the picture gallery, and to
slaughter the councillors There was, however
a condition on which the lives of the councillors
might be spared. If they would repeal the laws
already passed for the expulsion of Anarchists
from the republic, and would abstain from
passing similar laws in the future, the explosion
would not take place. But il they insisted on ex
polling Anarchists they were to be sent to heav
en- or elsewhere by the aid of dynamite The
The Federal Council happened to be in session
when the letter was read Within twenty
minutes after its reception resolution was
passed which authorized and commanded every
officer of the republic from the President down
to the humbest cantonal constable, to expel
from Swiss soil every man and woman who
could be fairly shown to be an Anarchist. The
resolution was adopted without a dissenting
voice or vote Ten men so far have been es
corted over the frontier for Austria to deal with
