SAN Francisco, Cal, Oct. live receive
Hartford county's favorite, The AgiS, every
week, and thought that perhaps some of our
Eastern friends would like to hear about San
Francisco, the metropolis of the far west
San Francisco is indeed city of hills, so
much so that the cable car has been found to
be the only practical mode of street transport
alton. One Of the old residents said, when
asked why electricity is not used, 1.-The hills
are so steep that electricity could not even run
up the wires"
Looking westward from the top of Straw
berry Hill, beautiful elevation in Golden
Gate Park, can be seen the beautiful Golden
Gate and the mighty Pacific, with ships pass
ing to and from all parts Of the world. To
the north and south rise the foothills of the
Sierra Nevada, the "snowy range" while to
the east lies the beautiful city of San Fran
cisco. Closer and beneath us are throngs of
pleasure seekers, strolling through the park
There goes wealthy young man, driving his
pair of fine horses. Next comes man who
is not blessed with so much of this worlds
goods, driving along in his spring wagon,
with the bottom covered with straw, milk
cans and children perhaps he feels richer
than the other. Close behind is a party of
Cinnamon strolling leisurely along with their
pig tails streaming out behind in the strong
breeze which always blows in San Francisco
The buildings of the Mid Winter Exposition
are situated in the park, but they are now be-
ing torn down, and there will soon be nothing
to indicate that the largest exposition ever
held by one of our states took place on this
spot.
There is one subject which is rather NAL
odorous but should not be left out in de-
scription of San Francisco, and that is the
disposal of the city's garbage. Instead of be-
ing cremated or carried to distance and dis
infected, as it would be in our eastern cities,
it is here dumped on the outskirts of the city
and allowed to stand and generate disease
germs. 1t is proposed however to introduce
the eastern plan shortly.

LATER AND AUTHENTIC.

In the last issue of The lFqiS, we notice IAN
Open Letter. addressed PEI sonally to Edward
L. Gernand and John A. Evans, which is in re-
ply to former article published in reply to an
alleged comparison of the Equitable Life AS
surance Society and the State Mutual Life As
surance Co., made by Mr.. Joseph Bowes, Man
ager, and Mr.. John ]. Alexander, Agent, of
the Equitable Life.
We are at all times ready to defend our Com
pany in our official capacity, and we will be
glad to give any information to intending in
surers as to the merits of the different plans of
insurance; but we have neither the time nor
the money to carry on. IL personal cOrrespon-
dence through the newspapers.
Mr.. Alexander states that he has been in
formed" that the Equitable Life Assurance
Society gave pro rata paid up insurance to
those who were either unable or unwilling to
continue their policies in force under the Ton
tine plan. We have the names of many policy
holders in the Equitable who did not receive
such value, and were secured through an ad-
vertisement in the daily papers. The following,
we believe, are sufficient to prove our state
ment:
Mr. Henry A. Sage is the president of the
Easton, Pa, horse railroad. He paid large
Tontine policies of $4,000 each. Having
failed to continue payment of premiums, he
tried to make some arrangement with the
Company. OF course they would not do it,
and he could not recover a cent. He now re-
grets that he was coaxcd into so costly and il
lusory Il plan.
MFR. +. ]. Auspach, of No. 134 South Third
street, Philadelphia, took IL ten thousand dol
lar policy on the Tontine plan in the Equitable
in 1875. He paid on the whole of it for some
years, when circumstances compelled him to
stop payment on $1,000, for which he could
not get cent. He still clings to the other
5000, but says he is tired of it. But un-
it is what he bargained for.
MIR John L. Cummings, of No. . n. Clark ST.,
Chicago, I!l., through adversely in business,
left with the Equitable S2S5.o0 on Tontine
policy for $1,000 which he p;iId $500 Il
year for three years. He says the Company
would not wait for me- Why should they !?
They had the money as they had expected to
have when Mr.. Cummings insured.
mir. E. G. Ward, of No. 1G1 Macon street,
Brooklyn, paid eleven quarterly premiums Oh
Il Tontine policy for $1,000 in the Equitable
He neglected to pay the twelfth until he
was too late, and he was out to the extent of
S372.35. The company got the money and
Mr.. Ward the experience

Capt. Charles A. Conner was taken very i'll

A sad accident befell one of our neighbor-
ing PerryviIians on Tuesday morning at an
early hour Mr.. Elmer Pond, brakeman on
the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore
Railroad, having made his regular run to Bal
timore the night before, was on his return run
and as he was crossing the bridge attempted
to go from one car to another, with bag of
coal which he had gathered from the empty
cars when he missed his footing and the bag
dragged him between the cars, the entire train
passing over his body and mangling it beyond
recognition. The crew did not notice any
thing unusually wrong until they reached
Perryville where they were notified that they
had run over a man on the bridge. Upon
looking up the crew they found the man Pond
missing. His remains were taken to Perry
vile and dressed and afterwards taken home
