 Yesterday 1 received my blank appli- cation for additional insurance in m old life insurance company and find several new and rather personal questions which were not asked me when l became a policy holder in tho company five years ago. Among them find this one print ed in red ink:
 Are you a ibertine?' This interrogatory has been put in since joined.
 The company knew the kind of man [ was when I took out my policy, and now must I change my whole course of life in order to get additional insurance?
 No!
 If I've got to be hbertine in order to get insurance in a New York insur- ance company, I'll insure myself.
 Of course people have approached me | at different times about becoming n lib ertine, but saw that it would take nae away from home a good deal and might lead to immortality, and so gave it up Life insurance Is first rate boon to those who can collect it and then get re- suScitated, but if one must lead a double or quadruple life in order to be eligible the business will surely fall off ill the l future

 Memphis June 12.-When the commit tee on resolutions appointed at todays session of the Southern and Western Staes Silver convention makes its re- port tomorrow there may be a lively time. The committee went out at Q o'clock, and it is thought will be ready to read the platform at an early hour tomorrow
 The plank which may make all the trouble is one which endorses Joseph c. Sibley of Pennsylvania for president. MT Sibley is a man of brilliant attain ments, a ferVid friend of the free silver idea and a cordial hater of the admnis- tration policy.
 In his speech tonight at the Audito- rum he did not spare Cleveland or Car Bsle. It is somewhat doubtful at present whether the plank will ever get through the convention. If it does it is almost certain 1t will never get through the con- ventlon. The more conservative mem bers of the delegations do not believe it will be good policy to introduce presi- dential boom for even so popular a friend of the free silver movement as MT Sibley into platform which was originally inteded to show nothing but the feeling of the convention on the money question:
 From the standpoint of the white money enthusiast nothing was left to be desired by today's convention.
 i Two thosand delegates braved the torrid skies to be present and every state, with few exceptions, sent it's most prominent and representative men with instructions to shout for silver, vote for silver and tolerate no discussion of any thing else but silver. The delegations varied greatly in size. the largest com ing from Mississippi and Tennessee, and the smallest from some of the far west ern land so-called silver states. The small representation from the silver states was explained to the convention by Gov L. Bradford Prince of New Mex leo, on the ground that all these states had recently attended the convention at Salt Lake City. Nevertheless. said Gov ernor Prince, not one of these states was unrepresented. A committee has been appointed at the Salt Lake City convention to represent all the states, and this committee would arrive tomor- row.

The platform was presented by the committee and it was decided to vote on each plank separately.
 The first and second blanks, declaring for prohibition and woman's suffrage, were adopted A long and tiresome de- bate followed on the financial question. The committee reported in favor of the free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1. John Richards of IIllsboro offered as a substitute for the government na- tional bank system that the government start banks and loan the people money onproducts, goods and land. A. P. Chase of Morton introduced a regular green back plank. Nearly every delegate took part in the discussion and the convention adjourned at noon without agreeing.
