some Of the remedies I saw adver-

was worse than ever, and in most
cases didn't even get temporary

TOOK JUST A FEW MINUTES
To Run Up Substantial Subscription for Aged and lnfrm HebreWs-l. 0. B. B.
 Work Yesterday.

New Orleans May 26.-The feature of the day in the session of the Independent Order of BNai Brith was the spontane- ous contributions of members towards the construction of a new charitable ln- stitution in the city, which will separate the old and inflrm from the Tulane in- .firmary.
 ' Then Isdore Newman, speaking on the question, said he thought until a sepa- rate home was provided for the old and infirm the Jews of New Orleans had not performed their duty. He said that the old Jewish custom of giving tenth of daughters dowry to charity should be- revived, and that instead of spending the money in vanity it should go towards providing place for the aged people now mixed with the i'll inmates of the infirm- ary. The sentiment met a hearty re- sponse and the following resolution was adopted:
 Resolved, That individual contribu- tions be received at this convention of District Grand Lodge No. 2, Independent Order of B'Nai Brith, to be held as a nu- cleus to a fund to be raised to provide for home for the aged and infirm in dis trict No. T."
 A subscription was at once started and in few minutes the total amount of the subscription ran up to $2650. Mir New man said he would obligate his family to make the sum $3000. The following com mittee was appointed to take charge of the fund for the home: Isdore Newman, John Kahn and Henry Marx.
 The special committee, appointed at the last session of the grand lodge held in Montgomery, Ala, in April, 1895. to con slider the feasibility of establishing technical and manual training school in connection with the orphans home at New Orleans and to suggest ways and means of carrying out such a project made a lengthy report, which was re- ceived. but not debated

 We do not know what this means and cannot believe that it Is true. A meet ing of the Southern advisory committee is to be held tomorrow in Augusta and representatives from the exposition com pany in Chicago are expected to be pres ent. We were informed by the Hon. Patrick Walsh. chairman of the advisory committee, yesterday that important matters would be submitted to the meet ing In Augusta and that a report would be received from the Chicago manage ment. We do not know what this report will contain, but we do know that any postponement of the exposition now will be regarded in this state as breach of good faith on the part of the Chicago people.

 Feeling Still Strong.

Atlanta, Ga. May 26.-A special from Zebulon, Ga., to the Constitution says that Tom Delk was convicted there to- day of murdering Sheriff Gwynn of Pike county.

 'If the people generally understood the ASSOCIATION it would be difficult to per- suade them to take any other form of life insurance"
 This remark was made to us recently by a man who, for more than half a score of years has been actively engaged in the business, but who had not, up to that time known just what our system is. We do not doubt the entire accuracy of his statement. We may say, too, that this has always been our view of the case. From the hour when THE FIDELITY'S banner was first flung to the breeze it has borne the in- scription. Prove all things; hold fast that which Is good;' and our invitation today. to every man, is: Examine our system, please, and then decide on it's merits or de- merits for yourself; we will be content to abide the issue"
