The people of Minnesota are moving,
like those of Iowa did a year ago, to
prohibit the so per cent. cO-insurance
clause in fire insurance. The insur-
nnce companies in that State, as in
many others. attach a clause in the pol
icy providing that unless the insured
carries policies covering at least 50 per
cent. of the value Of the property in
sured, in case Of loss he shall receive
only that proportion to the face OF the
policy which the amount of the policy
bears to the per cent. In other words,
insurance becomes partner with the
insurance company so far as paying the
premium is concerned. but there is a
discount on his dividends so far as the
profits are concerned. The great mass
of people do not look upon it as fair
deal and there is likely to be cOnsidera-
BILE inhibitive legislation.

The average clergyman is not built
upon the proper plan for money
making man. He cannot make money
rapidly, and when he tries he COM
mits some serious blunder. That is the
way it was with a clergyman from
Buffalo who went to New York to get
rich. He had been told to go there
and he could secure fortune in about
five minutes. He took with him $500
in good cash, which an accommodating
gentleman had promised to take ip ex-
change for several thousand dollars
that ''looked just as good and would
pass anywhere" The accommodating
gentleman got the $500, and later the
clergyman went to the counsel for the
LexOw Committee and complained
that he had package of tissue paper
that was Of no value whatever for
paying bills. He has now gone back
to Buffalo satisfied that there is moth
ing for clergymen in the ''green goods"
business. Still he has excellent ma
terial for a strong sermon if he cares
to use it

charges all his present woes to an ad-
vertisement, and so does his wife. He
advertised mot wisely but too WELL"
His advertisement brought him wife,
and now she is trying to get rid OF him.
The story would make first-class plot
for a play. and We commend it to strug-
Cling young dramatists in search of
material. When Mrs. Kohlhoss- good
name for farce-comedy, decided
that she had been married long enough
she consulted lawyer, who sent her \
letter giving her some advice. 1t SO
happened that this letter fell into the
husbands hands and he unhesitatingly
opened and read it. This made Mrs.
Kohlhoss mad and she had her husband
arrested for opening a letter addressed
to her. The case came up in the United
States Court and Mr.. KohlhOss' cOun-
sci raised the point that the wife could
not testify against her husband. The
judge sustained the objection, and as
Mrs. KOhlhoss was the only witness
there was no evidence for the jury to
consider and the case was thrown out
of court There are complications and
situations enough for anything from a
one-act farce to q six-act mel0drama.

AS an example Of the possibilities Of
the domain of crime, the case of H. II.
Holmes, the insurance swindler, prom
ises to take a conspicuous place in
criminal history. The ingenuity which
has marked this individuals efforts
was backed up by an energy which, in
a better cause, might have won him
fame and a fortune. Beginning his ap-
premiership in crime when he was a
mere boy. he seems to have improved
every opportunity to acquire proficiency
in it. According to the reports now OBJ
tanned he began his remarkable career
by getting his life insured and then Sc
curing a corpse and having it identified
as his own body. From this venture he
netted S12,5OO. The plan was so sue
cessful that Holmes secured an accom-
plice and repeated it several times, OBJ
tanning considerable sums Of money
with most of the attempts. These bold
swindleS, however, are only a part OF
the career Of the man now under arrest
LII ullduclpuld. ne SeelllS W udN Z IA
banded and developed his capacities
with every new crime performed Until
he attained skill which in other lines
of effort would be called genius. His
swindling operations were as numerous
and as Enthusiastically novel as his means
of increasing his list of creditors. His
latest crime, the swindling Of life in
surance company by means of what
was probably bogus corpse, has mere
ly had the effect of raking up an entire
career of criminal adventures ranging
all the way from petty swindling and
theft to large forgeries and more helm
Gus crimes The various incidents con-
nected with his latest effort place him
under suspicion of murder. It will be
strange and sensational story which
this case develops when it comes to
trial. 1t will be the story of man who
not only seems to have done wrong as
matter of fixed policy and choice, but
who allotted his wrong doing with an
energy, shrewdness and imaginative
fertility which indicates real love for
the work.

To Start the Story.

In writing n story, there are authors
who do not plan the course of events
in advance, because they do not know
them; but they write on, certain that
some ingenious complication will sug-
gest itself-in short, the story is to
write itself.
confess believe in, and rather fol-
low, this system, for the reason that
the incidents seem more like real life,
where the unexpected SO often hap
pens, and where events turn up in a ca
PRECIOUS way. However this may be,
l have always found that everything
depends on getting well started-that
is. started with such eagerness and
enthusiasm that you could sit down
then and there and write on and ON
to the end.
Others deliberate and potter. as it
were: hover on the brink. hesitating to
make the plunge: the moment of depar-
ture is put off and put off, and when
at last a start is mace it becomes a
task and a drudgery. and is virtually
no start at all, because it is so labOred
and uninspired that you feel you have
not begun.-MemOirs Of an Author
Percy Fitzgerald.

ait effects attendant on an Over-indul-
Gence in lager.
Bishop FallOws believes men do not
drink beer-that is, the majority do not
for the alcohol that is in it, nor for the
tipsiness Over-indulgence induces. He
maintains that they drink it as beyer-
age simply, and that the drunkenness
Is in most cases the result Of uninten-
tiOnal excess. He believes, too, that
many slaves of drink have been made
through their first indulgence in what
at the time they thought was 4 harm
less beverage, but that the alcohol in it,
awakening an appetite dormant in
many and only becoming active rs it
was fed. finally saturated the victim
and reduced him to the pitiable cOndi-
ton of the habitual drunkard.
Acting on this belief Bishop FallOws
