Dakota Insurance Laws

WASHINGTON. Special Telegram, May 2s.-
The senate to-day passed a bill which has also
zone through the house. and only needs the
presidential signature to besome law, pro-
viding:
All general laws hereafter enacted by the leg
lslature OF Dakota, Incorporating insurance
companies, are leGallzed and made valid at once,
and shall have the same force and effect as if
they had becn passed by congress.
Under the Revised Statutes the territorial
Legislatures are authorized to grant charters
for various purposes, but the power to in
corporate insurance companies is not con-
tanned in the law, SO that it requires this
special act of congress to allow them to do
so. The senate committee on territories
states that several laws have already been
passed to incorporate insurance companies,
and under them these companies have done
n large insurance business, and to remove
doubt rs to the legal status of the companies,
and to protect the interests of those who
deal with them, legislation is necessary, ana
therefore the bin was passed.

insurance commissioner ofNew Hamp-
shire that since the withdrawal of the

aggregate capital of S525,o0o, twelve
state and two town mutuals have
been organized; making in all five
stock companies with a total capital
of $1,025,ooo, fifteen state and nine

still regards it as an exceedingly I'm,
wise measure.

rest. They work night aud day, year in
and year out They look like little else
than mammoth chunks Of solid iron, be-
tween which the piston-rods play back and
forth. One floor OF ordinary height ae-
commodities them. But the Cornish
pump, whose piston is worked with q
walking beam, needs tall structure for its
operation. The most wonderful walking
beams in the world are these that render
service in the Cornish engine build
ing. They look as though they
might be forty feet long. They
weigh "a or '25 tons apiece. The long
piston rod shoots up and down through
three floors. The stroke is 10 feet and 6
inches. They make 1917 strokes to the
minute. aud at each stroke nearly GOO gal
Ions of water are sucked in from the
intake. There are two of the monster
walking beams. One only is in use at a
time, and that not always. The necessity
for its service depends upon the consump-
ton of water by the city. This varies
from $4,000, 000 to 81, co.. 600 gallons per
day. The pump was stroking leisurely on
Thursday. 1t wouldn't have been doing
so, however. if it had not been for Com
missioner Datz One of the 17-ton piston
rods snapped one morning and fell with
great noise and crushing weight into the
basement of the building. The Board Of
Works found in this an excuse for new
expenditure, and they wanted to expend
$40, 900 or $4,000 for a new pump. The
keen witted Commissioner saw, how
ever, that trifing sum spent in repairs
would restore it to working order, and they
were made, in spite of the Works. protest,
for something short of $1,000.
From the Cornish engine room across an
out-of-doors raised platform, the News man
was escorted to the stand pipe building.
The walls of this structure are over six
feet thick, and no enc has ever yet been
able to find how much it cost to put them
up. They enclose two great iron tubes,
standing on ends and towering $50 feet
above the ground level. One of these
tubes imprisoned a solid column of water
six feet in diameter and as high as the pipe
itself. The other was not in use. 1t is
into this receptacle that the water is
pumped by the engines. From them-or
the one of them that may be IN use-the
water flows by natural gravity into the
long pipe, shaped like the spout of tea
pot, that mounts to the water level of the
reservoir on hill top not far distant.
This reservoir is % feet above the level of
Bergen Hill and will accommodate 40, 000,-
600 of gallons of water. Thence the water
is conducted through two great mains in
to Jersey City. 1t is stored before service,
however. in the monster reservoir on Jersey
City Heights, which holds 100000, 900
of gallons, and is always full. As the
News man rode along back he noticed that
the two mains are unprotected by covering
against the weather, which may corrode
an destroy them.

THE &c. A. C.'S NEW HOME.
TEE BEAUTIFUL CLUB HOUSE IN
SOUTH BERGEN TO BE OPENRD.

Mammoth Fair That VIII Rival the
PaIma's Fair in Display and Attrac-
Iiveness-iA Description of the New Club
House, with a Picture.
The possession of its own club house
and that, too, one of the finest club houses
in the city-marks an epoch, of course, in
the history of the Jersey City Athletic
Club. 1t marks an epoch, of less signif-
canoe may be, but an epoch all the same, in
the history of progress of the South Ber-
gen section of the city, which it helps to
beautify. When the cornerstone of the
handsome structure the gentlemen of the
club have since put up on Crescent and
Clinton avenues was laid the SUNDAY
MORNING NEws-the TATTLER then-an-
ticipated its appearance with cut made
from the architects drawing, and gave
some details of the plan to be followed in
it's erection. The building that the TATT1ER
then PORTRAYED is finished now, and is to
be formally thrown open to the public this
week with fair. The fsir will begin on
Wednesday next, and Will continue for ten
days. 1t may not eclipse the great fair of
the Palma Club last winter, but it will
compete with 1t in beauty of arrangem ent,
attractiyeness of display, and in all other re-
spects. The new club house is pic
tured in this column. The base.
ment and first story of the building
are of BelIeville brown stone, which is
laid in what is termed rubble and rough
ashlar work. The upper story is of wood,
shingled, with batten Trainings to the win
dows, and gables giving those portions the
effect of half timbered work. The entrance
porch on the front, extending nearly the
full width of the building, is divided into
three large bays, formed by massive stone
pillars. which make very impressive fea-
ture of this.part of the building In the
upper story of the front all the windows
are grouped in an exceedingly artistic
style, and framed in by heavy moulded
archltrave. The gable on the front pro-

jects slightly beyond the face of the build
ing and is supported at either end by large
brackets, and in the centre by the project
ing bay window beneath. A triple win
dow is placed in the gable. On the
Crescent avenue side the tower
is the most conspicuous feature.
An open belfry at tn, top affords mag
nificent view of New York, its harbor, and
the surrounding country. The character
of the work on the opposite side is similar
to that on Crescent avenue. In the rear is
the extension with hipped roof, while on
the main roof, towards the front, feature
has been made of triple dormer to bal
ance the tower on the opposite side. The
roof is steep-pitched, having dormers
placed at proper intervals. Passing
through the heavily panelled oaken doors
at the main entrance is spacious corridor,
the floor laid with Minton tile. From this
corridor runs the main hall, which extends
through the centre of the building. The
reception room, library und ladies' parlor,
on the east side of the hall, are finished in
selected Lakewood, highly polished, and
are to be furnished in the most artistic
style. The library is on the southeast COR
ner, extending into the tower. The wood
WORK and mantel piece in this room are of
superior finish and made after special
designs. On the west side of the hall are
the secretary's room and gentlemen's par
Tors, and, beyond, the billiard room, which
runs the eatire width of the building,
and will contain six elegant billiard
tables. All are finished in cherry.
The northwest extension contains the bath,
coat room, and BARRIERS shop. For those
using the gymnasium, a private staircase
leads FROM this room to the gymnasium
above. A notably spacious hall is on the
second story. Its open fireplace is its glory.
The gymnasium occupies 50x78 feet. The
roof Is supported by well-proportioned yell
low pine trusses. its apex being forty-eight
feet from the floor. The floor is of the
best selection, comb grained yellow pine,
| perfectly smooth and oiled. 1t is one OF
| the largest, and when furnished, will be
one of the best equipped gymnasiums in
| this section of the country. In the south
east corner of the second floor, embracing

which extends around three sides of the
