THE COLLEGE.

will obllge the friends Of Yankton COL
lege by inserting the following quota
ton from the Congregatiopalist of March
9th issue, from the Chicago correspon-
dent signed "Franklin." d. BIN.
A wise benevolenee cannot bs too core
ful In discriminating between the claims
OF institutions which are Endorsed by So
cietles in which the christian public has
reason to contide, and the claims OF IN
situations which are without this en-
dorsement.
1t ought to be understood that the
failure to obtain such endorsement is, TO
say the least, suggestive OF obligations
elsewhere, or unworthiness on the part
of the claimant.
The college society, for example, ls
not likely to with hold Its sanction from
one college and give 1t to another, with
out q good and sufficient reason, and
when this hes been done tho institution
which IS recommended onght to receive
the gifts needed to enable 1t TO carry on
Its york Just o the needs Of
Yankton college are peculiarly
pressing. 1t seems too bad that
its appeals should IN o way he
interfered With by those of another
institution in the same territory. Yank-
ton ia without endowment, has a faculty
of nine persons, a fine and rapidly in
ereasing company of students. By its
very prosperity it is compelled to try
and secnre ten Thousand dollars at once
for the erection of u PLAIN, modest build
ing of brick for q ladies' hall. When
Yankton has been provided for, it will
be time enough to hearken to the app
peals of come institution which may
have been started to boom real estate,
iust as it will be wise to heed the appeals
of some one of the many schools called
into existence by the generous and fos-
tering care OF the new weat commission
when the treasury of that society is
supplied with funds for the general
work to which it stands pledged.
4 pastor whose church is self support
ing and liberal in it's help 10 the causes
which in a new country are always ap-
pealinR for aid, thus writes: "For the
sake Of the penniless boya and girls who
seek a higher education. for the sake OF
the hard working students, many of
whom are the children of onr noble, yet
poorly paid home missionaries, we ask
help for Yankton college," The aid asked
for is at least consistent with the de.
mand of the field. Why should IL not
be granted.

BILE positions, but latterly working with q frenzy
Of energy in the interests of the poor aud un-
fortunate women Of all kinds. Her zeal is not
always tempered with good judgment. but
sometimes proves very annoying to comfortable
people. Within the last few weeks twenty dis
reputable houses have been raided by the police,
and the inmates fined in sums rang

Robert Odlum, who lost his life jumping from
Brooklyn bridge in the summer OF 1885, went to
the District Commissioners and wanted to know
why the houses were selected while scores Of
others had immunity. Getting no satisfactory
answer, she has prepared q resolution reciting
the matter and demanding an investigation and
the impeachment Of the commissioners. Repre-
sentative Martin. Of Texas, has promised TO pre-
sent the resolution to the House at the first
opportunity.
Mrs. Smith has a book now in press which
she states will be before the public a few weeks

The Senate Committee Again Considers Full
ler, but Reaches No Conclusion.
WASHINGTON, May 31.-The Senate commit
tee on the Judiciary to-day further considered
the nomination Of Mr. FnIler to be Chief-justice.
but did not reach . conclusion. Another meet
ing will be held later to-day or TO- morrow. There
seems to be no doubt that the committee will
report favorAbly on the nomination. The delay
il said to be due rather to . fear that the COM
mittee will be accused of haste and want %
thorouehness If it ~neelects TO examine and
weigh all that is laid before 1t, than to any spe-
cial matters which have been charged against
the nominee. A certain Chicago man has been
writing persistently asking for delay to give
him time TO put certain things in shape for
presentation to the committee, and he has been
accorded the time.

CHARLES B. PEET, Esq, President United States Mutual Accident A~oci

CHARLES B. PEET, Esq, President United States Mutual Accident Asnci
alton:
Dear Sr-At the completion this day of IN examination IF your company by
direction of Hon. Alfred Carr Superintendent of the Insurance Department of
the State of Missouri we take pleasure in testfying that the facts of the annual
statement of the company for Dec 81 last were tuthfuny set forth; that your
company vas then in possession of the assets claimed, and that its liabilities
wrea accurately determined
The vouchers and returned checks Endorsed by benefciares for death loss
claims and by the insured under disability claims. with their accompanying
proofs have been duly compared by us sin detail and found to be correct The
balance OF items constituting the remainder of the disbursements of 1887 were
also compared with the books and proved to be true.
For the income account the TENS were verified, by comparison of the entries.
from the first detail by individual numbers of certificates in the daily receipt
books and policy registers through the whole system of records to the final entry
in the ledger. 10 sufficient extent to satisfy d that n o miShtement can have
occurred and that all the account is correct
We find also that the system of checks adopted in carrying mt the detail Of
current Office work is ample to detect error in shy direction, and to protect the
company, its oHcers and members in all their relations with one another
AS far as can be shown from the paucty of statistics of casualties available
for public comparison, the ratio Of total losses by the company to total numbers
insured-nealy the whole business of the company being gin the preferred class
of hazard-s@ms OBJ exceedingly favorable thecostso far not having exceeded
So per thousand of indemnity. All claim against the company, except for
fraud, have BEEN paid promptly in full In cases of change of occupation, while
a policy is in force, from a preferred toa hazardous class as from that of q mer-
chant to that of a cowboy, the policy us justly scaled in case Of loss to an amount
which would have been originally written in the after class
The practice If the company in charging a uniform assessment and making
the amount of policy vary with the risk assumed, seems to be upon a more correct
basis than tina. of uniform policy with variable premium
We are satisfied that the business of the company from its organization to
the present time has been honestly and judicioudy administered, and that is
whole sysem of accounts and the Intercourse of its managers with its memben
are compact and under a method not easily to be improved upon.
