Paw ASSESSMENTS When Dine.

The following decision OF a case recently
tried In Illinois is of special interest TO men,
hers Of beneficial and Insurance organizations
II appears that one Albnus Brasher of Milan,
Ill.,. became member and obtained a certih-
cate of insurance for $4,000 in the Home
Forum Benefit Order. The order is chartered
under the state OF Illinois with its principal
Office In Chicago. 1t appears that Mr.. Brasher,
who had been member for more than year.
had failed TO pay three assessments which
were levied between the months OF August
and December. 1898. He fell sick on the 3oth
of November 1898. and while In bed and his
life despaiTed OF. his friends went TO the local
treasurer at Milan and rendered the three
assessments, which were past DUE the rules of
the order requiring each assessment to be paid
within thirty days from notice. None Of these
assessments had been paid. On the 9th OF De-
cember his friends paid these assessments and
the treasurer gave a receipt therefor not
knowing that Mr.. BrasheF was III and his life
despaired of at the time. Mr.. Brasher died on
the 18th OF December, 1898, six days after the
payment. The local treasurer returned the
money and took up the receipts, as he had &C
cepted the money In Ignorance OF the Illness Of
Mr.. BraSher.
The case was hotlS contested by the attorney
for the plaintiffs. The certificate of member
ship and proof OF death were submitted. The
Judge instructed the jury TO find for the de.
Tense He held that the certificate OF member
snip proved on its face that 1t was Issued 90
the general condition that the member should
comply with the bylaws of the order; that the
benefit assessment should be paid within thirty
days from the date OF the notice. and IL not so
paid the certificate would be null and void. The
Judge held that this constituted a continuing
liability and not a specific contract except as
the continuing liabilities were discharged at
The time provided for in the conditions of the
certificate and the bylaws; and that a failure

corning certain part of the
territory In question, but will
not consent to arbitration in regard
to the rest of it, holding that she has a
clear title. When Congress meets I'M
doubtedly tho whole matter will be
brought up and some vigorous resolutions
will be introduced in support of the
Monroe doctrine, and in favor of its en-
forcement in this particular case. Con
gresham Livingston tells the Washing
ton Star that if the administration does
not take action before Congress meets he
will introduce a resolution in the House
of Representatives which will recite the
resolutions passed by the last Congress
asking that Great Britain arbitrate the
Venezuelan boundary dispute, and ask
what, if anything, has been done looking
to such arbitration. The resolution Will
also provide for the appointment OF
committee consisting OF three members OF
the House and two Senators, with power
to make complete investigation OF the
question. Both parties seem to be alive
to the Importance of the question, and
there is likely to be a good deal of rivalry
between them as to which shall press it
the harder, There are signs even that
the administration is about to show a
little more back bone in it's treatment of
foreign affairs.
