secretary, was most interesting document.
ln lt he sent forth the many obstacles which
the insurance auxiliary has been compelled 10
surmOunt. When il lirst got fairly started tile
order was enIOined from issuing insurance GER
Iificates. The case was decided In favor OF the
order, and then when the insurance project nad
got new start the State Insurance Commits
sion gave notice that they would reopen the
case. Thus IL drags along, and in all probability
Will not reach tnality until 1t goes through
the Supreme Court OF the United States.
In support OF the alliance plan 10 pay a
stipulated sum OF money TO members or their
heirs on account OF death or loss by fire, Mr..
Fawcett claimed that the insurance plan IS
further advanced in Germany than IN any
other country, and he stated that ne mas IL on
the authority of men who have carefully noted
The workings Of the compulsory insurance laws
that they have greatly reduced the suffering
and want prevalent among the lower classes
Mr.. Fawceit complained that the aIlisnce is
confronted in the United States by claws which
make it possible for great insurance companies
or cOmbineS 10 accumulate great fortunes at
the expense of our citizens, and also by The
fact that said companies and combines use
their accumulation. 10 a Certain extent, 10 pre-
vent the passage of any bill which would In
anywise tend TO lessen the profits of their bust
ness"
Mi. Fawcett then turned MS attention TO the
Insurance companies of the Stale, and fired
some very hot shell into the combines in the
following terms:
I'VE are also confronted by the fact that the
insurance combine of this State has in some
manner succeeded in defeating every mutual
insurance bill which has come before the State
Legislature. thus compelling the people TO pay
tribute 10 them. And now. as fraternal order.
we desire 10 cooperate among our
selves in the matter OF insurance IN ac.
cordanee with the provisions of section
431 OF the Civil Code. and although
our plans have been declared by the court TO be
within The limits OF the law. some unseen force
seems to be at work to prevent us from carry
ing our plans into execution"
In conclusion Mr.. Fawcett recommended a
changes a
geSted that the conversation of the men regu-
larry appointed TO solicit applications should in
no case exceed 90 per cent of the admission
Zee. and IN this connection il was his opinion
that IL would be unwlse TO fix the minimum ad-
mission fee at less than 81 %.

The number of names on the great register of Graham county is l6l3 and hence the county will in the future be in the ranks as first class county. The difference in the government of a first class county and second-class county is only in the fees and salaries of county officers.
 The officers to be elected on Noyem- Der 9th will receive fixed salaries, all except district clerk and sheriff. The increase in salary to officers in this county will amount to 5000 more than was drawn heretofore. The new asalries will be as follows:

JUST LIKE A PAGE

Court Officials Gave the Boys Great
 Deal of Liberty.
 Court pages seem to have been for given good deal of mischief, if we are to credit the annals of European courts The thought suggests itself that the high dignitaries were at times weary of etiquette and magnifcence, and were secretly grateful to an au- dacious youngster for creating a diver sion.
 One day an important official of France, who went often to Versailles, was waiting in an antechamber fol the coming of the king. He leaned back in his chair, and rested his head against the tapestry on the wall. A page slippei up behind him and with a great pin fastened the officials wig to the tapestry. Just then some one cried: Here is the kingr'
 Up jumped the official, leaving the wig hanging to the tapestry, and con- fronting the king with bare head. He was not at all disconcerted. and said gravely: II did not expect to have the honor of saluting your majesty to-day in the guise of choir boy"
 The king repressed a smile, and at once recognized the incident as the Work of the page He insisted upon knowing who was the guilty one. and then ordered him not to appear before him again until he had begged the officials pardon.
 The page retired after receiving his orders. At midnight he decided to ex- ecute them. He galloped away on horseback to the residence of the off cial, and awakened the household and the whole neighborhood, declaring that he had message from the king. The official got out of bed and put on some ! of his court garb in order to receive the kings messenger properly. At last the page was ceremoniously admitted to his presence. Then the boy said ''Sir, I am here at the kings command. I have come to beg your pardon for pinning your wig to the tapestry"
 Sir" replied the official, calmly, ''you need not have made such haste" Then the page retired with as much hustle and ceremony. He appeared before the king the next morning, and was promptly asked if he had done as he was told. He answered that he had, as many witnesses could testify. When the king was told how the page had ex- ecuted his orders, he shrugged his shoulders and said: That is just like a page. "-Youth's Companion.

 Spectacles are the most universally useful gift which optical science has conferred upon mankind More wonderful instruments abound. The miracles disclosed to human vision by the telescope and microscope are known to all To such marvels spectacles lay no claim. But to compensate for this their mo march and the cottage of the peasant their beneficial influence is equally diffused. It is remarkable also that unlike most oths produc tions of art and scienee cost can add nothing may be mounted in gold, and those of the humble cottager in iron, but the optical medium-the glass lenses to which they owe their perfection must be the same.
 THE ADVANTAGES of these spectacles over all others are:
 l. They can be worn with perfect ease for any length of ti ne at one sitting, giving as- tonishine clearness of vision by candle or any other artificial light, comfort to the spectacle wearer hitherto unknown.
 ?. How to select glassess: It requires pro fessional guidance, even when good article is offered. The Doctor not only has the best glasses that can be found in the market, but carefully examines the eyes, and gives indis- pensible advice for the proper selection Of them.
