ACCIDENT INSURANCE.


 A case of interest to those who take acci dent insurance has just been decided by United States Judge Dyer, of Wisconsin. Suit was brought to recover $1o,000. The insured had committed suicide His life was insured against injuries effected by 'external, accidental or violent means," but the policy was not to apply if death was caused wholly or in part by bodily infrmi ties or disease of the insured, and suicide was also expressly excepted. The case was tried before jury, which returned special yer dict finding that the man was insured, that he committed suicide and that he was insane when he hanged himself.
 The judge decided that the company was liable. In his opinion he discussed two questions. The first was whether the fact that the insured was insane when he commit ted suicide may have rendered it a death caused by bodily injuries effected through accidental means and taken the case out of the special exception in the policy; and, sec ond, whether the death was due wholly or in part to ''bodily infrmities" SO as to exempt the company. As to the question of insani- ty, it was clearly proved. In such a case the act of suicide was no more the mans act, said the judge, in the sense of the law than if he had been impelled by an irresistible physical power. When the insured, then, took his own life it was not his voluntary, rational act. The physical violence, therefore, which terminated his life was the same as if it had come upon him from sources outside of him self and for which he was not responsible.
 In regard to the second question it was contended that insanity was a disease, that the death was caused by the disease, and hence the company was not liable. The judge said that was the law in cases where the insurance was general, not special, or life policies, but did not apply to accident poli- cies. Although it might be said that Gran dal would not have committed suicide if he had not been insane, and so that insanity was promoting cause of death, yet on the strength of numerous authorities on similar cases it must be held that the act of self-de- struction must be regarded within the mean ing of the policy as the true and proximate cause of death" It was therefore decided that his widow was entitled to recover the amount of the policy with interest.
 This is an important decision and the s'pointsn are very fine. It is not probable that insurance companies will lose much by

Consumption
 Conquered
WHEN THE DOCTORS COULD
 DO NO MORE.
CHAS. A. CABRERA, 32 Hawley Street,

1 CHAS. A. CABRERA, g Hawley Street, Boston, Mass, writes: ''One year ago I was apparently far | gone with Consumption that my life seemed only question of days rather than months. With my faith in the ability of physicians to help me all gone, I tried almost every known remedy, with no apparent benefit. Finally, as a last resort; I was induced to try Dr. R. 0. Flowers Lung Cordial. The very first dose gave me relief, and with the first bottle took new lease of life, and
 can honestly say to-day that one spoonf.d of this remedy is worth more to the sufferer other known remedy. A bottle of it is now one of my choicest possessions, and at the first symptom of a cough or cold fly to it for the relief it never fails to give.'
 DR. FLOWERS LUNG COR. DIAL is without question the most wonderful Lung remedy ever discovered. It eradicates the germ of CONSUMPTION as no remedy has ever been known to do. It stands without rival for COUGHS, COLDS, BRON- CHITIS, ASTHMA and CON- SUMPTION.
 Price $1 per bottle. A copy of Dr. Flowers Rules for the Treatment of Consumption ac- companies each bottle.

The Bicycle and a Turkish Mob.


 At II o'clock I decide to make start, and the bicycle being the focus of attraction for most undignifed mob as I trundle through the muddy streets toward the suburbs of Adrianople. Arriving at street where it is possible to mount and ride for a short dis tance, l do this in vain hope of satisfying the curiosity of the crowd and being permit ted to leave the city in comparative peace and privacy; but the hope proves tc he vain one, for only the respectable portion Of the crowd disperses, leaving me, solitary and alone, amongst bowling mob of the rag, tag and bobtail of Adrianople, who follow noisi- ly along, vociferously yelling for me to "binI bin!" (mount, mount), and "chu! chu!" (ride, ride) along the really unridable streets. This is the worst crowd have encountered on the entire journey across two continents, and arriving at 8 street where the prospect ahead looks comparatively promising, I mount, wheel forward with view of out-distancing them if possible: but ride of over a hun dred yards without dismounting would be an exceptional performance in Adrianople after 8 rain, and I soon find that I have made a mistake in attempting it, for as 1 mount the mob grows fairly wild and riotous with ex- citement, ,ainging their red fezes at the wheels, rushing up behind and giving the bicycl @ smart pushes forward in thelr eagerness to see it go faster, and more than one stone comes bounding along the street, wantonly flung by some young savage unable to con tain himself. quickly decide upon allay- ing the excitement by dismounting and trundling until the mob gets tired of follow ing, whatever the distance. This movement scarcely meets with the approval of the un- ruly crowd, however, and several come for ward and exhibit 10-para pieces induce ment for ma to ride again, list overgrown gamins swarm around me, and stradding the middle and index fingers of their right hands over their left to illustrate and emphasize their meaning, they clamerousty cry, "bin! bin! ehu! chus monsieur! hou! chu!" we'll as much other persuasive talk, which, if one could understand, would probably be found to mean in substance that although it is the time -honored custom and privilege of Adrianople mobs to fling stones and similar compliments at such unbelievers from the outer world as come among them in conspic- uous manner, they will considerably forego their privileges this time if I will only "bin bin!' and 'Echui chu!n
