The Sea.

1t is the sea which ennobles every
thing. Between the line and the surf
there was but the ancient foreshore,
covered with prickly tamarisks and
mauve colored heath, with yellow sand
conspicuous here and there. At the linn
it OF the foreshore the rugged border
line cut clear into deep and somber
blue. 1t is she-blue as any grape on
this cluster which hangs in the cooling
breeze. The azure deepens, filling up a
good half of the range of sight; the
white sail of fishing smack floats
alone, like hollow shell; the eternal
monotone of ocean is borne upon the
ear. Draw near and see the leaping sill
yer foam
Above this intense blue the sky is trans
parently, superbly pale and the stars
are hurrying to light their lamps. There
is not living soul, nor plant, nor
any sign of the hand of man. There
might be nereids and fauns dancing
on the strand, as in the days when the
world was young. H. A. Taine III

WHO WAS THE BOY5
Rose Krocak Is Badly Hurt by "a
Thrown stone.

Rose Krocak, the eleven-year-old
daughter of NJ. Krocak, of 478 Michi-
gan srteet, is confined to her bed from
an injury received at the hands Of
an unknown youth. DR.. ShimOnek,
who is attending the child, states that
the result of the patients injuries can
not be determined as yet, but it is
probable that there was a rupture of
the intestines, and the case was a Sc
riOus one.
Rose Krocak attends the parish
school connected with the st. Stanis-
laus church, at Western avenue and
Superior street. Thursday morning,
just as she was about to enter tbs
school house door, boy, whose identi-
ty has not been ascertained, threw 4
stone at the girl. The missile struck
her in the abdomen, and for the time
being gave Rose trouble Soon after
entering the school, she tainted away
at her desk, and then it was that her
companions told the story about her
being hit with stone The child was
put to bed at the house of the sisters,
who have charge of the school, but, as
she grew worse, a physician was called
in. Yesterday she was removed to
her home, and last evening she was
reported as resting easier. The play
mates of the injured girl claim that
the boy who threw the stone is a pupil
at the Monroe school, which is in the
immediate neighbOThOOd of the par
ish school. Neither Rose nor any of
the other children know the name of
the lad, but several of them say that
they know him by sight. The case
was reported to the police yesterday,
and an effort will be made by the Of
ficers to locate the youth.

Minnesota Departments Ruling
About Fire Policies.
Insurance Commissioner Dearth has
been in correspondence with the inSur-
anCe departments of several of the
Eastern states, notably Massachusetts,
since Aug. l, relative to a ruling which
he made in August prohibiting the fur
ther use in this state of what is known
to the insurance fraternity as the ''un-
derWriters' policy" For example, the
Mechanics, Milwaukee, issues what is
known as the German Underwriters, -
the Hartford Fire issues an under
writer's - policy; the N. w. National, of
Milwaukee, issues what is known as
the Northwestern Underwriters the
Capital Fire, of Manchester, n H,
has the New England Underwriters -
and the Pennsylvania Fire association
issues a Joint" policy. The insurance
laws of most of the states, Minnesota
included, provides against the issuance
Of these policies, insisting that any
company assuming a risk shall have it's
name clearly and unmistakably dis
played at the head of the policy. The
strict enforcement of this law was Mr.
Dearth's aim, but he found himself
alone, practically. The Massachusetts
department finally came around to the
ruling out of such policies, where two
or more weak companies have united
under the name of such and such an
underwriters association, but the Mas
sachusettS man has not vet declared
himself as against the underwriters
policy, so called, where it is backed by
a single company, of good standing.
