State Superintendent of Insurance Geo.
I. Anthony has made public the advance

of the insurance department
This report was all ready to go to the

of insurance but the new superintendent
went over and revised the entire report
Superintendent Anthony criticises ex-
Superintendent Snider for admitting the
mutual companies which he recently
shut out of the state and says an opinion
of the attorney general which was given
to Mr. Snider was on file in the Office
when he admitted them.
Superintendent Anthony says the pro-
vision of the law exempting fraternaI in
surance companies from the regulations
of the state insurance department,
"has been taken advantage of by null
titude of men who were born weary, and
reared in a purpose to neither toll nor
spin for a living. AS statesmen out of
a Job suddenly becoming oracles-im-
parting wisdom to the world-these
men out of meat blossom suddenly into
titled lords of benevolent insurance, as

genuity and folly"
Superintendent Anthony thinks this
class of insurance companies ought to
be regulated

adian Defenses Denied.

NEW YORK, July ia special from
Montreal says: The minister of militia,
when shown dispatch from Washing
ton saying that the United States gov
eminent had secretly sent spies into
Canada to study the typographical situa-
ton and means of defense in the event
of invasion, said: II do not believe a
word of it. There is no necessity for
sending spies over here, where every one
is at liberty to come and make his own
surveys"
This view hardly corresponds with
that held by the late Secretary Sir John
Thompson, who, anticipating such a
movement on the part of the United
States and the cooperation of Canada
with the United States to secure this in
formation, had special legislation passed
in parliament in 1882 to meet such a
contingency.

The Waller meeting held at the court

The friends of the late Gust Mauer of
Hays City, who was murdered at the To-

the Mauer case be investigated by the
state board of charities.
Two members of the board of chart
ties have already expressed themselves
as regarding the case as nothing serious
and Mauer's friends do not like this.
It is now said that they propose to get
a thorough investigation by having the
attendant who had charge of Mauer in
the bath room arrested on a charge of
criminal negligence. DR.. Eastman may
be included in the warrant.
An investig ation in the courts cannot
fail to put the responsibility of Mauer's
death where it belongs.

charge of the building in which Mauer
was confined and where he was killed. ,

To the Editor of the STATE JOURNAL.
I read with pleasure in the JOURNAL
that G. G. Foster, judge of the Uni cd
States district court, had taken his family
and gone for months pleasure trip.
That he was better than he had been
since he was taken sick and that his com
plete recovery was only question of
time. 1t was known throughout the
United States that the Judge
was in very precarious condition
for years. That his death at any time
would not have been surprise to his
intimate friends. That he had treated
with the most learned doctors of Europe
as we'll as a great many of the most noted
doctors in the United States. Would it
not have been interesting to the public
to have been informed where the Judge
procured the medicine that worked such
a wonderful cure? If you did not know
the Judge would have told you if you had
asked him. If he had been cured by
some noted physician every paper in the
land would have published it. But
when he was cured with less than So
worth of Gavitt's System Regulator ina
tive herbs) it would perhaps have sound
ed too much like patent medicine ad to
have mentioned ii. There have been
dozens of citizens of Topeka cured with
the same medicine who were worse,
think, than the judge ever was. There
fore it is no surprise that he is now in a
condition to take trip for pleasure. w.
w. Gavitt's Medical company of Topeka,
Kan. is shipping the same medicine all
over the United States, and wonderful re-
ports are coming in of marvellous cures
from every quarter. And yet there are a
few in Topeka who have never used it,
Notwithstanding it is sold on an absolute
guarantee to cure all chronic diseases or
they will refund the money paid for the
medicine. 1 am well acquainted with
the manufacturers of this medicine.
Have witnessed the workings of the med
icine in several cases and know all the
facts in this case, and it is certainly
worthy of mention.

Composer.

ing to Walters unhappy fate. Mr..
Smiths music is quite popular. His
Frederick Douglass waltz is now in its

The basis of his Waller composition is
to be southern negro melody. Some
time ago while in Atlanta, Ga, he heard
a peculiar, wierd melody from the lips of
an old colored aunty, 80 years of age.
1t was singularly fascinating in time
and note and Mr.. Smith spent hours
with the old lady getting the tune, which
he transcribed and now has in his DOS.

tune, while very pretty, consists of only
eight measures. To this the old aunty
had adjusted eighty stanzas of her own
composition, and she insisted on singing
them all to Mr.. Smith.

SOLID COMFORT

In the good ancient days of Adam and Eve,
Man very little, that perceive;
He didn't wear breeches that bagged at the knees,
Or dress suits and linen that kept out the breeze
Or collars that choked him each breath that he Grew
He simply was clothed in g fig leaf or two
How nice it would be. when it's hotter than love,
Aud mercury crawls to one undred above,
If could enjoy the ecstatic relief
Afforded by wearing a catalpa leaf
That bliss is denied US; have to wear clothes;
The day has departed VIII en- everything goes;
To take solid comfort there's only route,
And that is, to purchase cool summer suit
Those Gray Worsted Suits or Chevots of blue
For sale at the great GOLDEN EAGLE will do;
Our balbriggan underwear also are ''bz' :
They'll keep you cool a cucumber is
While negligee shirts such never wore
Are kept in abundance at Clothing Store.
Well furnish you socks that will sweat your feet,
And summer nec6tes that stylish and neat,
And straw hats light a zephyr at night,
And alpaca coats that way "out of sight,;
But what is a greater indictment by far,
We're selling much cheaper than other folks are;
So call, for know if you do you will buy,
And take solid comfort in sultry July.
