EVIDENCE SUFFICIENT.

The Spectator of (of n y tables for 1895
have appeared, showing the rate of interest
earned by the q leading life insurance
companies They show that the Union
Central Life Insurance Co, of Cincinnati,
O., ratio for 1894 is 7.01 per cent, against
S sc per cent, the highest of any other com
pany, and 499 per cent, the general aver
age This is an extraordinary showing for
the Union Central, being / 35 per cent
above the ratio of any other company.
That is to say, on an equal amount of
money invested the Union Central earns
as much as the best ofthe other companies
and nearly one fourth more
Extending the comparison for twenty
years, from 1915 to 1894, the average of the
Union Central for all that time is GO
against %, the highest of any other COM
pany, and SIS the general average.
The Union Central average per cent of
death claims for thirteen years, compared
to mean amount of insurance in force, has
been 0 65, or 65 cents for each hundred dol
lars insured. The lowest aver ge of any
other company has been IS and the high
est 210. The average of the twenty four
other best companies has been 1856.
The above are the vital points of man
agement in a life insurance company, and
from the actual records we can grant all
any other company claims and still have a
margin left in our favor.
The results of high interest and low
death rates are for the benefit of the in.

VIOLET FAME.

TIE Well Known Lady Currie Uses Her
Influence with ths Sultan Of Turkey.
Lady CurrIe better known by her pom
nnme Of Violet Fane, has quickly made
her mark az British cmbassadress at Con.
stantinople, and, fnom all hear, there has
never, since tho accession OF tho present
sultan, been foreign lady who stood 30
high In the good graces Of his Ottoman
majesty, who loses no occasion Of paying
her marked attention. Her influence at
his court sho used In very efiicacious
manner the other day.
A DR.. Pachayan, an Armenian Chris
tian. had been convicted of some treasona.
bio practice or other at Constantinople and
been sentenced TO death. A few days prior
TO the date fixed for the execution of the
sentences his hancee called upon Lady Cur
rie, threw herself at the embassadress'
knees and made a passionate appeal 10 her
excellency TO help her to secure a oommu.
tation OF the doctcPs sentence. Violet
Fame, who IL the most warm hearted
woman imaginable, as may be gathered
from the pretty poems that she has pub.
lished from time to time, was much
moved and promised to do what she could
at the Yildixkiosk.
1t happened that the next day was Fri.
day tho day Of the Salamlik-that Ia, the
ceremony Of the sultan's going to prayers
and on his return from the mosque. see-
ing Lady Currie and her husband near the
entrance Of the palace, he invited them TO
take refreshments with him In ono of the
pavilions OF tho gardens. Lady Currie
availod herself Of tho opportunity TO appeal
to the olemency Of the sultan In behalf OF
the condemned man. On learning that she
was interested In his fate. he informed her
that her request would DO granted, and .
few hours afterward ono Of his aids do
camp carried TO the embassy not merely
q Communication OF the death sentence.
which was all that she had ventured to ask
for, but free pardon for the doctor.
Since then the Armenian population at
Copstantinople swears by Lady Currie,
who has become In the eyes Of the people
one Of tho most important personages of
the empire sinoo 1t was altogether unprec-
edented that commander Of tho faithful
should thus publicly yield to tho charms
Of foreign woman-aye, and Of a grand
mother at that, as Lady Currie has several
children by her first marriage TO Mr.. Sin
gleton, who have children OF their own. -

and be proved a wonderful success, so
much so that the visitors failed to score

the good work of Dunn he was well sup
ported By the team, only two errors being
made, while the Pawtuckets managed to
make IL.
Todd was In the box for Pawtucket and
the Portlands got fourteen hits off his de-
livery, and the visitors from this city
could only find Dunn for six.
Barton, the new man, caught Todd, and
Terrien did good work behind the bat for
the home team.
Only three OF the visitors were able to
get as far ss third base. Magoon
atoned for his errors by making phenom-
enal plays. The score:

FOR A POKER CONFERENCE.
The Herald Says q Congress Of Experts Is
Greatly Needed.


The need of the hour-a poker congress
That Is to say, a national conference OF
poker players, who shall pass upon all dis
puted points, decide all mooted questions,
establish what Is canonical and orthodox
and reject what is mere hercsy and schism.
OF no other game can 1t be so truthfully
said that its laws are In an absolutely
chaotic condition. 1t Is fondly called the
national game. At some time Of his life
every citizen Of tho United States has
played it, II not for gain, then for fun. A
poker player travelling over the American
continent finds himself one Of vast broth
erhood OF fellow players. Yet everywhere
he has to learn and unlearn. Everywhere
he finds the beautiful symmetry Of the
game marred by tho introduction OF some
Objectionable feature or the loss Of some
pleasing and necessary ones
An ecumenical council Is, Of course, I'M
possible. But The Herald ia willing to
step into tho breach as self constituted
pope with this proviso that It's decroes
shall not be taken as infallible, ex cathedra
utterances, but as obiter dicta submitted
to tho faithful for acceptance or rejection,
as they may elect. Perhaps with this OK
ample before them an coumenical council
lin other words, o national conference OF
poker players-may be o possibility of the
near future. This paper will simply pre-
sent tho problems, offer what seems to bs
the best solution and await future devel.
