What Life Insurance Officers Learn
About Their Patrons.

From the San Francisco Call
"Dr. Talmage says that Joseph was president
OF the first life insurance company" said q
downtown agent as he whirled around in his
office chair. 'Did it ever occur to you that an
application for life insurance policy is a very
interesting bit Of personal history For in
stance, this application is from q well-edu-
Gated, well-born young widow. Her name il
Helen Corbett, of Galveston, Tex. She was born
in Richmond, Va, August 10, 1859, and is,
therefore. twenty-nine years old. She has been
a widow ten years and has had two children,
one OF whom still lives and is named as the
beneficiary for her $4,000 policy. She has not
paid the first premium and never made
application for insurance in any company
pe1ore. her fathers name was Charles Canale
smith, and he was born in Bonneville, Tenn,
and died at the age of fifty-nine Of typhoid
fever. The mothers name was Susan Kelly

Poetry and Plumber.

From the 6acranento RECORD Union.
On Sunday night David McLennahan, who
lives about miles below Franklin, on the
Lower Stockton road, lost Q dark bay mare.
saddle and bride. When his hired man went
out to look for the animal he found piece of
poetry, . la Black Bart, which read a. follows:
But horse am compelled to borrow.
Plesse pardon this act Of transgression.
And win leave him at my Destination
You viii md him Il you 60 down.
BY nscsssity and bad wsiiinS.
Yours truly, BW
Mr.. McLennahan came to Sacramento and re-
ported his loss to Chief Lee and then went 10
Stockton, while the chief communicated With
officers north. On Tuesday young man about
twenty years Of age, who gave the name of Fos-

She Saved the Baby.


One of the most heroic acts performed during
the Revolution when the whole nation rose to a
high plane of heroism, was that of a child in
South Carolina which may be new to northern
readers. During the investment in Charleston
the country north of Coopers river was ravaged
by Col Tarleton. Some of his men reached
the plantation of Mr.. Robert Gibbes at night
and after killing the cattle and shooting down
the terrified negroes proceeded to shell the
house. MIR. Gibbes was helpless cripple,
whose wife hadrecently died. His oldest daugh-
ter, Marian little girl of thirteen with the
help OF one or two house servants. carried her
father and younger sisters to place of safety
III the swamp. She then discovered that the
baby, her cousin, a boy of two years old, had
been left behind. The house was in flames. The
shells were falling thick upon it. The field be-
tween her and 1t was filled with drunken, riot
GUS soldlery. But she did not hesitate She
kissed her father, and, with a gulp of terror,
darted toward the house. A soldier caught her.
where are You going!" he demanded.
For our boy!' breaking loose.
The men stopped firing. As she entered the
mousse the walls began to crumble, and the
flames shot high above the roof But in mo-
ment she reappeared with white bundle in
her arms. Tradition says that Tarleton's men
cheered her loudly as she ran back to the
swamp. She was badly burned, but recovered.
and lived to be one of the most patriotic Of
Carollnian women. The baby whom she saved
was afterward the gallant Lieut.. Col. Fenwick.

People who have grown up in the neighbor-

known, are not quite sure whether there ever

tine Washington, near fredericksburg.
For Parson Weems was reputed to have a
very vivid imagination. He used to drive
about Fairfax county in an old-fashioned gig
with a calash, peddling his own books and
Others from plantation to plantation. When
he succeeded in making a sale he would whip
out the fiddle that always accompanied him,
and, standing up In his gig. play the merriest,
maddest dance music. The negroes, who
stood gaping around his gig, could no more re-
sist him than the rats could resist the Pied
Piper OF Hamelin! First, they swayed, then
they beat time with foot and hand, and at last
broke into a regular corn-shucking jigl When
Weems remained overnight at the house of one
Of his patrons he would volunteer to read
family prayers, and at the moment the last
"Amen" was said, would fall to playing reels
and jigs upon his fiddle. His sermons were the
oldest ever heard from q Church Of England
clergyman. He was often at Mount Vernon,
and from General and Mrs. Washington he re-
ceived many kindnesses. In the course of
much 6reside gossip during his wanderings
from one country house to another, Mr.. Wsems
picked up the anecdotes Of Washingtons
youth which he has told in his book. And IL

And now for the foot-races, % reported BY
Parson Weems: 'Egsdl he ran wonderfully

of the observing naturalist, if it is an
affair of health, but the brisk, quick
gait from point to point, and the linger-
ing and observation upon arrival.
In fact, with short skirts, with easy
boots, with a companion as alert as ones
self, with shoulders back, head up and
arms swinging, a gait of twenty mill
utes to the mile, if fifteen is too much,
gives one presently sort of uncOn-
Seriousness of the separate acts of NOV
ing the feet, and a sensation as near
akin to flying as it is given to the chill
dren of earth to have. while the lungs
are filled with purifying breath to their
remotest cells and the blood is spinning
in its slenderest vein.
But whatever form the exercise to be
taken assumes does not so much signify
as the fact that exercise shall be taken
daily in some form, says Harriet Pres
colt Spofford. Nor is it right that it
shall be optional with our young maiden
whether it shall be taken or not.
It is as much the duty OF her parents
or overseers to insist upon it in suitable
amount as to insist upon her proper diet
and clothing. 1t is to be remembered
that she does not belong to them or to
herself alone, but also to her generation
and her race.
These have an interest in her and a
right; they are wronged. as much as if
they were cheated of any other possess
ion, if her health is in any way inn
paired, so that she is made the channel
through which impoverished blood and
lowered vitality are passed on to be
intermingled with the healthy blood and
exalted vitality of those who have been
obedient to law. and if. instead of lift
ing the race the one step that should
be in her power toward its goal of per-
lection, she debases all the generations
that are to come.
