The Phoenix Mutual Life Insurance
Company of Hartford, Conn, numbers
among the oldest and strongest old line
annual dividend insurance companies in
existence. The United States commission
er's reports shows that this company has
more assets for each 81 900 of insurance in
force than has any other life insurance
company. A great bulk of assets with a
proportionately greater ratio of liabilities
is no evidence of strength
The ratio of dividends paid annually
since organization to date exceeds that
of any other companies. The policy is
particularly conspicuous by the total alb
sence of restrictions and by the inclusion
of valuable guarantees and benefits not
found in the policies of other companies
The rates of this company are lower than
are charged by other companies for the
same class of policy, being the regular
board rates not padded. Money saved
or protection insurance her rates are
lower in every case than companies maxi
ing a specially of this class of insurance
alone There is no form of insurance
that the Phoenix does not write which
other companies do, except Tontine insur-
ance.

MALONEY'S WEDDING.

A very large and appreciative audience
was that which responded to the general
invitation to attend "Maloney's We'd
ding" at the Peterson theatre Friday
evening. Those who were present had
oceans of fun and those who stayed away
missed a fine entertainment and were the
losers. The company presenting this
farce comedy was not a very large one,
but every member was a comedian, and
their claim of producing $50 laughs in $50
minutes was fully carried Out. Several
very pleasing specialties were introduced
and hearty encores accorded each. Mr.. j.
c. McDuff in his limitations, Mr.. Andy
Adams in his songs, and Miss Eta Gierde
with her fine meZZo-soprano voice, being
at once installed as favorites. In the play
of Maloney's Wedding there are no minor
parts, each character having an individu-
ality of it's own, and being necessary to
the carrying out of the plot, so it would
be %invidious to compliment any particu.
lar one to the exclusion of another. Suf.
flee it to say that their rendition OF this
brilliant little skit was fully up to what
had been claimed for them in advance

to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure
in all its stages and that is catarrh. Hall's
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure
now known to the medical fraternity.
Catarrh being a constitutional disease,
requires a constitutional treatment.
HALLS Catarrh Cure is taken Internally,
acting directly upon the blood and
mucuous surfaces of the system, thereby
destroying the foundations of the disease,
and giving the patient strength by build
ing up the constitution and assisting
nature in doing its work. The proprietors

DELEGATES TO NATIONAL CONVENTION.

AS the state convention draws nearer
interest in the candidates for delegates
begins to increase. That one OF the
thirty-four delegates will come from
Lafayette county there is but little doubt.
As to whom the man will be, if one does
go from this county ought to interest all
the democratic voters. The county con-
v~ention next Monday will practically
settle the race for one OF the places on the
delegation.
Col. j. ID. Shewalter, 16 to 1, is a candi-
date. He would vote for 16 to 1, and
plenty of it, in the convention, and there
are many who would like to see him sent.
DIR. Jacob J. Patterson, of Higginsville,
Is the f%avorite with a large number. 1t is
not known to us that he has ambitions
along this line, but his friends are amhi-
tious for him, as the following letter
which is only one OF several of the kind
we have received, will testify:
To the Editor of the Intelligeucer.

would be more acceptable as a delegate
from Lafayette county to the democratic
convention at Chicago thar DR.. j. j.

to see this honor conferred upon aim. feel

faithfully represent us.
Very truly, LAFAYETTE.
DR.. Fulkerson Is a ~tireless worker, and
should he be chosen will truly represent
the wishes of his constituents. The selec-
ton OF a delegate is important and there
will perhaps be but two candidates, Col.
Shewalter and DIR. Fulkerson, though as
we said above, the Doctor is not a candl-
date OF his W choice. His friends how
ever have put him in the race. Either one
of these men are able to represent this
county wisely and we'll.

him that he bore no malice toward any
honest man, and that he left no enemies
behind.
In all of his life that which was the
most beautiful, that which shone in the
%briIliancy of the MONDAY sun, was his
devotion to his home-to his W family
circle. Here it was that his magnificent
character became rounded into perfection.
With the assistance of a faithful wife be
reared a family of children who command
the admiration OF all. He loved his home
as he loved his God. He made it cheer
full, as did an approving conscience bring
cheer to him. He loved his children, and
sacrifices for their education and advance
ment which would have been hardships
to others, were pleasures to him.
In the college he was dearly loved by
students and faculty. He was proud of
C~entral-proud of her accomplishments
and his whole soul was wrapt up in her
past, present and future.
When Col. Jones died, Methodistic edu-
c%ational circles sustained a loss. But
tributes to his memory will not take
away the burden of grief that o'ershadows
his loved ones, nor replace in Central
college and among his friends one who
was loved and respected. They can but
stimulate others to a life of integrity and
Christianity. We can but feel,
him as we have known him, that death to
him was but a gate to heaven. We can
but feel that he passed triumphantly into
the presence Of his Master, and was
awarded a crown of eternal Joy and peace.
He lived to die, and when death came he
conquered it. When his fevered brow was
famed by the breath of eternal morning,
there was sorrow here, but Joy in heaven.
With him now there is no sickness; his
suffering is over. Trials no more to him
will come; he is in that home of the blest.
To his sorrow-stricken wife and father
less children the INTELLIaENCER bears
sympathy. The day is not far distant, at
best, when they will be called to go. May
they adorn themselves in the habilaments
of Christian service, wear honorably the
legacy of an honored name he left them,
and be prepared to meet their loved one
in that "Home Over There"
