The Mutual Life of New xor,,

The accumulated assets of The Mutual Life
Insurance Company of New York, as appears
from the annual statement in another column,
under the management of President f. S.
Winston, have reached the enormous aggre-
gate of $103, S76, 1881. The Company last year
paid polcy-hoders, for dividends, death
claims, matured endowments, etc., tho sum of
$13, ,O62.19, and was in receipt of an ia
come of over $19OOo,O0O. The old Mutual
Life is without peer on the face of the globe:
il other companies grow, it grows still faster;
if they make liberal concessions to policy-
holders, they but follow its lead, provided
their liberality is within the limits of Iegiti-
mate life insurance. The Mutual never
adopts any methods that experience has not
shown to be safe, for safety, above all things
is what is needed In life insurance. Its policy
is simple and liberal. The Mutual is, in fact,
the pioneer and model among mutual life
companies.

The friends of the school, especially those
who contributed towards the new building
will be glad to know that the prospect seems
good for the Legislature to give the required
amount to finish and furnish it. The building
is of brick and stone, and the outside is COM
pleted. The educational committee gave q
hearing on Wednesday, at which Hon. John
l.. Stevens presented an exhaustive and yalu-
able paper on industrial schools in this and
other countries, after which Supt Rowell, Mrs.
L. M. n. Stevens, and Judge Baker, trustees,
ex-Superintendent DIR. Allen, gave in brief the
practical need, and reasons why the Legisla-
ture should grant the aid asked for. During
the ten years of its existence, the results have
been most gratifying, and it is confidently
hoped that the Legislature will unite with the
private subscribers in further caring for this
helpless and unfortunate class.
