THEY PUT 1T OFF.
True Stories which show the Dam
ger of PrOcrassinatiOm.

A young man, living in an interior town in
the State of New York, thought favorably of
insuring his life. But he put it off. Before he
got ready to sign an application, he met with
an accidental death.
| Philadelphia merchant signed an applica-
ton for $50, 700 of life insurance. He put off
meeting the medical examiner Before he was
ready to be examined he died
A young man living in Manitoba applied for
| life insurance. When the policy was delivered
he declined TO accept it, saying that he had
learned how he could do better with his money.
Before he could do better with his money lin
less than three months), he was taken sick and
died.
| A Pennsylvania man allowed his $40, 900 life
insurance policy to lapse in December, 1890.
He was then in good health. In January, 1891,
he was buried.
An Ohio man agreed to insure his life if his
wife consented. His wife was not willing. 1t
| happened that the man who did not insure his
life died soon afterward, and the wife who was
not willing that her husbands life should be
insured now depends on her own resources for
support.
A South Carolina man promised to take out
a $4,000 policy, but declined to do it then
and there He asked the agent and physician
to call on him in few days" In a few
days he died without securing the insurance
New York man returned his life insurance
policy to the company because his wife thought
| they could not afford 10 pay the premium. He
died suddenly few weeks later leaving no
provision for his wife and family.
Delays are dangerous. No time like the
present to insure, when for small premium
insurance can be had in the best Companies.

From the Colorado Daily CHIEFTAIN Mar q:
Once more the record for fast running on the
Midland from Leadville has been broken this
time by our friend. the old and tried engineer,
Automatic Bates. The conditions of the run
are from Leadville to Colorado Springs in four
hours. one hour and fifteen minutes faster than
any time ever before made. The cause of this
great dash from the cloud-capped frigid zone TO
the Italian climate of Colorado city and vicinity
was an opera troupe that held tickets which de
manded their being at Colorado Springs at a
certain time. They were detained in some way
on the west end, ard if they were not tlanded at
their destination the company were in it for
damages. Accordingly the corps of engineers
were overhauled and the brave old Bates chosen
to do this the bravest of all runs He arrived
safely with has train. placing a cloud upon all
previous fast running.
Engineer Bates formerly handled the throttle
on the c. & P road. and was well known along
the lire. and particularly in this county.
