Nearly all the prominent companies
will accept woman as a risk, if she
passes the lynx-eyed medical examiner
with good bill of health, but few COM
panies seek closely for female risks.
The woman who carries the largest in
surance in the United States, if not in
the world, is Mrs. George Hearst, OF
San Francisco, widow of Senator
Hearst. Her insurance, held by several
companies, is placed at 100000. Mrs.
Marshall o. Roberts, married the other
day to Capt Vivian, of the British army,
presented him as wedding gift, an in
surance policy on her life, properly
made out in his favor, for $3.50 Sew

Tho Gay Season.

It is universally conceded that New
York never has seen a gayer season
than this, when so much in the way of
public festivity was going on, or ''com-
ing off, as the conventional phrase
puts it. We managed to squeeze three
of the biggest balls into one week. Of
these three, the cooks ball appealed
most directly to the public ''taste," par
ticularly as it was preceded by an after
noon display of culinary art equal prob
ably to anything that, in these degen-
crate days in the French capital, could
be shown in Paris. Ispeak of degener-
ate days over there as compared with
the days of Incompatible cookery in
Paris, say ten or more years ago. The
culinary scepter is now held in this
city-we have imported the most IA
nous French cooks, and at least five Of
our leading restaurants are better than
Bignon's or any other in Paris. The
ball advertised as the great cooks
ball" leaves in doubt whether the
'sgreat'' applies to the cooks or the
ball, but both were worthy of it.
The old guards ball in the Metro
politan opera house is always an
immense affair, and this year, as
usual, it attracted almost an
army of military men from other
cities. For day or two all the prin-
cipal hotels, particularly in the vicin-
ity Of the opera house, were full OF
them. But the ball of the week, if not
of the season, at least by the estimate
of those who assisted in the function,
was McAllister's so-called ''New Years
ball. though given when January was
more than half over. The immense inn
pudence of this affair fairly challenged
admiration. McAllister announced in
his circular that ''once in two years. or
so it was safe to assemble, in an affair
of this sort, "the best elements of gem
eral society" Accordingly, representa-
tives at least Of the "best elements
were graciously permitted to be pres
ent, and for one night only We're al
lowed to assemble in the same room
with the sons, wives and daughters OF
the respectable old thinkers, furriers,
tobacco peddlers, liquor dealers, salt
fish sellers and other honest, hard
working old buffers who made the
money upon which the Four Hundred
now spread and swell. The very word
ing of the invitation was insulting, but
some of those who accepted and paid
for these invitations would put up with
a great deal for the chance of being
permitted even ''for one night only" to
minole with the so-called sssmart set"

Insurance, Foreign and at Home-The
Bomb Throwing Inducemeut-
Heavy Life Insurance.
COPYRIGHT, 1927

I met the other day Gen. George T.
d'Utassy, formerly of Cincinnati, but
who for a couple Of years has been q
resident of Baltimore. 1t has been said
that an insurance agent, like poet, is
born, not made, and Gen. d'Utassy, as
his friends assert, is born underwater,
and since then has been much polished
and perfected by long service in the
business. He occasionally takes up poll
tics us a advertisement, and during Fora
ker's first campaign as governor of Ohio
made German speeches throughout the
state for him. In the recent senatorial
contest in that state noticed his name
among the members of the Lincoln club
who favored Sherman as against Fora
ker whom he helpled to elect governor.
In the present case Gen. d'Utassy is
especially interesting to us because of
the fund of information he has in re-
gard to life insurance, which is becom-
ing more and more an interesting
subject for the public. He gave
me in sentence pretty good
idea of the magnitude which the insur-
ance business has attained when he
said that the companies in the United
States disburse nearly $s5,O0o,o00 per
year in claims, or an average of up
wards of 81 900 every minute in the day.
Their interest from investments is
above 1876, 100000, and they receive from
the public in premiums a sum exceeding
$3.50, 1000, 900. This vast amount of
money is drawn annually from the
earnings of the people, and whether
they get value received for it in the
protection it affords to families is
matter for them to determine. Gen.
d'Utassy and men in his line can prove
to you by little book, which each one
of them carries in his inside pocket,
that there is nothing like insurance
this side the pearly gates. recall an
address by Mr.. James w. Alexander, a
prominent insurance man of this city,
in which he gave it as his opinion that
the highest vocation which man can
elect is the Christian ministry, and next
to that he placed the life insurance
agent. And Mr.. Alexander was not
making a humorous speech, either, al
though he has been known to do such
things.
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1892-02-01
some Big Life Insurance.


It is part of Gen. d Utassy's business
to find out how much insurance his
fellow-men carry and show them that
they ought to carry more. He says he
finds little profit in men who have no
insurance at all. They are beyond
hope and he passes on to the other
class, which he finds more susceptible
to the seductive mortuary tables, en-
dowments, indcmnities, dividends and
all the rest Of the glittering thing.
While in Europe, not long ago, he found
the insurance habit prevailing there to a
very great extent. Some very large poll
cies are held by foreigners, and, as a
rule, in American companies. In reply
to a question as to who carried the
largest life insurance, Gen. d'Utassy
said the distinction undoubtedly Da-
longed to certain Duke Somebody, of
England, whose various policies in
many different companies aggregated
Sc, 600, 900. The prince of Wales was gen
orally believed by insurance men to
be the next large holder with some
thing like s2,50o,0oO The car Of
Russia is also insured to large amount,
but of late insurance agents had not
been urging him to increase his hold
ings on account of the activity of the
Russian bomb throwers. ndspeaking
OF bomb throwers, the insurance fra
ternity owed a great deal to the late
Mr.. Norcross, of Boston, who tried the
experiment on Mr.. Russell Sage. Since
that event wealthy gentlemen are less
difficult of approach by insurance
agents, after they are entirely satisfied
on the point that they are insurance
agents and not wandering gentlemen
with bombs. Several very large lines
of insurance had been taken out by
rich gentlemen since the Sage incident,
and agents are still quoting trade from
brisk to buoyant and beyond. AS to
the largest life insurance policies
held in the United States, the
general thought no one disputed
Postmaster General Wanamaker's
claim to that distinction. Mr..
Wanamaker is insured in several com
panies to the amount of $1,5o5,o60.
There are two other Wanamakers in
Philadelphia, William FL. and S. NJ,

insured for S125, and the latter for
100000. Probably the second largest
policy is carried also by Philadel-
| phian, Mr.. Hamilton Disston, the saw
manufacturer, whose insurance at last
accounts aggregated s6o5.eoo. Another
Philadelphian, W. W, Gibbs, has poll
cies amounting to 100000 while Will
