INSURANCE COMMISSIONER MERRILL of Massachusetts has issued report cover ing the operations of the surviving en- dowment companies in the state for the calendar year of 1899. Only ten of these were remaining on December 31, out of total of 56. Now there are only nine. Forty of these companies went to smash during the year, leaving in their train serious losses and distress to thousands of people. As none of the nine sur. vivors has yet reached the maturing period of it's certificates, the reason why they have stood as long as they have is apparent. It appears from the commits sioner's returns that to meet an ultimate liability of $7,276,9OO, the surviving companies have now on hand $221 ,905 or SPA to meet each S7s7 of promises The further remarkable fact appears that the officers of the companies have collected some $15, ,O00 more from mem
 bers for expenses than the endowment fund now on hand amounts to.

A Five Minutes Talk.

Could we have the favor of a personal interview with almost any resident of Waterbury we are confident we could convince him of the honest sincerity of our belief and moreover could produce re- liable evidence to prove our statements. We do not admire and never use sensa- tional advertising, believing that honest and exact statements, together with the testimony of responsi sible people, concern ing an article of true merit, will in the end gain the fullest confidence of the people. For this reason we shall tell you only what we absolutely know and can fully prove. During the last year nu- merous cases of obstinate blood diseases of long standing have been cured; victims of jaundice and other liver troubles have been restored to health; sufferers from constipation and it's attendant evils write us of relief and cure and hundreds of people debilitated by disease, old age and overwork, have been made we'll and strong again by taking Sawyer's Dande- lion Compound. It contains no chemi- calls, has no inert and dirty sediment (this is true of no other kind) is better, purer and costs less than any other spring medi cire. Do these facts suggest what you should dol sA%YSk' Sl1SsYfilkE' xnDsossr co.

 PARIS, March 22.-When Maitre De menge had concluded his address in behalf of Antonin Proust accused of corruption in connection with the Panama scandal, the jury retired to consider their verdict. After being out short time they returned and gave out these results of their deiibcr- ations:
 Charles de Lesseps. accused of corrup t. ing Minister of Public Works Baihaut to support the Papama Lottery Bonds bill, was found guilty.
 Baihaut, who confessed his guilt in open court, was also found guilty, as was also Blondin, who acted as between in the bribery of Baihaut.
 All the other defendants were acquitted.
 These are Marus Fontane Panama Canal director, NJ. Sans Leroy, eX-Deputy, who was accused of changing his vote in com mittee on the Panama bill as the result of bribery; Senator Beral, accused of being bribed by Baron Reinach; and Deputies Dugue de la Faueonnerie, Gobron and An tonin Prout, who were accused of corrup tion.
 The court sentenced NJ. Baihaut to i'm prisonment for five years, to pay q fine of $50, ,O00 and the loss of civil rights. NJ. Blondn was sentenced to Imprisonment l for two years, and Charles de l.csscps to one year, the one year to run concurrently with the five years sentence already i'm | posed upon him. All three of the con victed prisoners were condemned to pay the costs and damages demanded by the l civil parties to the proceedings.

READING IN ICELAND.
Culture as It Exists Away Up Toward tn,
 North Pole.

Culture as It Exists Away Up Toward the
 North Pole.
 W. E. Mead, in his paper on Books and Reading in Iceland" thus speaks of the universally of the reading habit in that far-away island:
 "One naturally expects the clergy to be more or less educated and to have books as necessary accompaniment, but one hardly dares to expect much of the ordinary farmers of so poor a land as Iceland; yet in spite of all draw backs the Icelandic farmer manages to have at least few books, and some. times a remarkable number.
 ''On my trip to Hecla and Krisuvik omitted no opportunity of looking over the books in the farmhouses. Some times I found nothing but the Bible and the psalmbook, or an old Urea tisc on farming, or some practical religious work, put little inquiry usually brought out a few volumes of the old sagas- At a farmhouse almost under the shadow of Hecla 1 found on the chest of drawers in my bedroom, sev- eral choolbooks-one for learning Danish-a volume of tales, and the usual psalmboolk Against the wall hung a portfolio partly filed with Ice
 
 landic newspapers.
 '"The members of the family appeared to be very intelligent and by no means to have limited their reading to the few books in sight A day or two later we were at Skumstathir, on the south | ern coast As we had just come from some of the places most famous in Ice landic story. asked our host if he had a copy of the Njalssaga. He was a tall, shrewd-loolting man of over sixty, with a strong face, a mighty, hawk like nose, little fringe of beard under his chin, and sharp. penetrating eyes He thought there was a copy in the house and returned with a well-worn volume published in Copenhagen in \ 1772, having a part of the title page \ printed in vermilion. Other books were | lying about the room. A bunch of news \ papers published at Reykjavik hung ' against the wall. and the first number of a religious newspaper was handed about as specimen copy.
 Books turn up in unexpected corners. While we waited for the wind to sub side. SO that our horses could safely swim the 0lfusa, we stayed at the house of the ferryman. He opened bottle ot port wine for us; and when asked for a book to while away the time he brought a small armful for me to choose from.-Atlantio.
