SUMMARY OF $ f
IdABILITIE S.

Above see Statement of the Company, show
its condition AT the close of 1891.
The year has been a hard one for Insurance
Companies, so hard that many have given up
the struggle for eXistence; still the Home
comes ont of the battle stronger than ever be-
fore.
Please notice not only the amount, but the
quality nj the securities held by the Company
and the enormous Reinsurance Reserve held
FOR the security of policy holders.
The premium receipts of the Company dur
ing the past year have been larger than ever
before, the Increase over the very large pre-
miums OF 1880 being some 5000 %, although
many risks which have proved Improbable
have been cut off without hesitation and the
business was never IN better shape than now.

Trouble with the New Coins.

WASHINGTON, Feb. lS.-Tbe new silver
dimes, quarters and half dollars are caus-
ing no little Inconvenience in several ways.
It appears that in the milling, in order 10
subject the coins to as little wear on the
face and back as possible, the edges were
slightly raised, so that they are, in fact,
somewhat Thicker than the old ones. Con
%sequently they cause considerable trouble
for bank tellers and others who handle
considerable money, in that they are not
yet used TO them.

SAN Francisco, Feb. 17.-Sarah Althea
Hill-Terry, Sunday, while insane, wan
Iered away from the home OF X. +. Cul-
breth, where she was stopping. Later
she was found at the house of Madam
Plezanee, Il negro woman who was Mrs.
Terry's nurse several years ago, and who
has always been her firm friend.
Mrs. Terry's mania is OF II violent type,
with occasional intervals of lucidity. A
peculiar feature of the case is that she is
desperately in love with Il. Porter Ashe,
the wealthy turfman. and constantly begs
her attendants and the spirits to send him
to her. The last defeat which Mrs. Terry
sustained in the courts was recently, when
she failed to recover the insurance on Ter
ry's life, it being held that he died while
violating the law.
Unless her brother, Morgan Hill inter
venes, she will be sent 10 an asylum in a
few days. No Intervention is probable, as
she was disowned by her relatives long
