Union Mutual Life Insurance Co

At the annual meeting of the Union Mutual
Lite Insurance Company held at its office
yesterday forenoon the following gentlemen
were unanimously elected members of the
board of directors for the term of three
years:
James Yereance, New York City; Edward
A. Noyes, Portland, Me-; Josiah III. Drum
mond, Portland, Me-; Frank e. Allen, Port
land, Me.
The annual report of the directors to the
policyholders printed in full in another part
Of this paper shows gratifying progress in
all the departments of its business.
The Uuion Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany, being particularly Maine institution.
1t seems proper that the citizens of our State
should recognize this fact by patronizing it
when they purchase life insurance. The
effect of such patronage would be twofold,
(frst it would build up at home large pro-
gressive company, which would be required
to employ an additional force at its office, so
helping the city locally; Second keep the
money expended for life insurance within
our limits, INSTEAD of sending it out of the
State, thus retaining the capital Of the citi-
zens largely within our borders for employ
ment here, instead Of elsewhere.
We hope to see our citizens recognizing
the sterling qualities of the Union Mutual
by their patronage. The results of the BUSH
ness of this we'll known company as whole
reso clearly set forth in the report Of the
directors we do not further comment there
on, as they speak for themselves.

HE PAID THE BILLS,
The British Brig Tasma Ordered Not
to Leave Port.

The British brig Tasma, for Nova Scotia,
with ballast, started in tow to leave this port
yesterday without paying Ryan and Kelsey,
the ship brokers, who cleared her. The nee
essary papers were made out by the law firm
of Woodnan & Thompson, and put in the
hands OF Deputy Sheriff Sargent, VINO
started in pursuit with tug boat. He over
took the Tasma just as she was passing the
Breakwater. As the tow boat came along
side the brig hoisted the British flag. Mr..
Sargent boarded her and ordered the captain
OF the vessel to 60 no further. The captain
said that he was under the flag of England
and that Mr.. Sargent had better be careful
what he did.
Il have heard such talk before" said Mr..
Sargent, 'and say You shall not leave port
until these bills are paid"
After due reflection the Englishman con-
cluded that he had better settle his accounts
without going farther, and so he did. His
game of bluff did not work on Mr.. Sargent.

sherIff's Assoc,atlor

The sheriffs of Maine met at Augusta yes
terday and formed Sherif's Association,
electing these officers:
President-Sherif Irish, Rockland.
Vice President-Sheriff Wormell Bethel
Secretary and Treasurer-Sherif Stevens, Au-
gusta.
1t was decided to secure a change in legis-
lation so as to double the sheriff's fees. As
the law stands it is claimed that in some #
the counties the statutes do not give the sher-
ifs recompense that is adequate to pay the
expenses Of the office, and in some cases, af-
ter the sheriff is paid his share of the fees
by deputy, the deputy is really out of pock-
ct by the expense he has necessarily incurred
