A New Department.

CHICAGO, August 20.-The latest ex-
ploit of the mammoth department store
of Siege], Cooper & Co., has created q
commotion in wholesale and retail
fish circles, east and west, and has also
dimmed the lustre Of the famous Full
ton market of New York as the leading
fish entrepot of the country. The firm
in question has contracted for the en-
tire catch, Of the Long Branch.
N. ]. fisheries, owned and operated by
United States Senator Blodgett, and
averaging two carloads, or twenty to
twenty-five thousand pounds of ocean
trout, weekfsh, Goldfish, haddock and
founders, each week. The entire catch
is to be rushed to Chicago by fast ex-
press and the figures at which the con-
tract has been closed will enable the
supplies to be retailed in this city at an
average of four cents per pound against
the current rate Of nine cents in Fulton
market.

Mrs. Davis New Understudy.

Mrs. Jessie Bartlett Davis, wife of
Manager Will Davis, of the Haymarket
theatre at Chicago. and long the noted
contralto of the Bostonians, has eugRg-
ed as an understudy, Mrs. Jennie Haw-
ley Woodrow, of Salt Lake City. Mrs.
Woodrow is about twenty five years of
age, is q prof ounced brunette, and has .
very attractive stage presence. She was
born and raised in Salt Lake City, learn
ing much of her music from Conductor
Evan Stephens, of the tabernacle choir,
and after singing considerably In home
concerts and operettas, married aud
travelled. Ysaye, the noted musician
and violinist, was much taken with Mrs.
Woodrow's voice not long ago and
recommended her to Mrs. Davis who
on giving the young woman q careful
examination, accepted her as under
study.
The operatic and concert stage has
been the dream of Mrs. Woodrow's
life, which is about to be realized. The
dispatches say she is an apostate Nor
mon. AS she never was q member OF
the Mormon church she can hardly be
called an apostate. But her associa-
tions have largely been within Mormon
church lines, as might naturally be
inferred from her place of residence.

Mutual-Mutuality.

A MUTUAL life Insurance company
is one in which there are no stock
holders to eat up the profits. Conse-
quen,ly, in mutual company all the
profits of the business are divided
among the policy holders. This makes
it cheaper to insure in mutual COM
pany than in stock company, though
both charge identically the same rate.
The Equitable, Etna, Travellers, Ger
mania and other stock companies turn
a large part of. their profits into the
pockets of the stockholders. Conse-
quently, their dividends can not be as
large as those of THE MUTUAL LIFE
OF NEW YORK, every dollar of whose
profits is turned over to the policy hold

The German Governments Teachings.

The German government today
breaches protectiOnism and passive
obedience, tariff war against America
aud police war against popular aspira-

cape these influences, and preach
hatred from day to day where they
should preach the brotherhood of man.
This is sad TO contemplate, for Germa-
ny is naturally looked up TO as a great
reservoir of scientific and literary
wealth. Germans used to be generous
towards foreign countries-particular
ly towards England and America,
which have sheltered their exiled
brethren and paid wages to millions Of
their emigrapts, Yet scarcely ever
