Insuring workIngmen.

The German government provides a
system of compulsory insurance for
working men. Under this system a
workman 90 years of age pays an
equivalent of 40 cents a week for three
years, and at the age of Go he re-
ceives the sum of SIT, in the meantime
having had an insurance against ac-
cidents. The annual premium is di-
vided into three parts, one of which
is paid by the workman, another by
his employer and the third by the
state. The report for 1896 shows that
1889, 900 persons were insured under
the law, of whom 100000 were en-
ployes in shops and factories, 1920
900 wee employed in agriculture and
100000 were in the employ of the
state. In that year the number of ac-
cidents was 1887, of which GAS ter
minated fatally. The total expense of
the system for the year was S13, 400, 900.

have been having attacks of kidney COM
plant, the pain in my back over my hips
was very severe at times; my urinary sys-
tenn was also in bad state of derange-
ment, sometimes the urine was scanty and
then again the amount would be excessive,
and difficulty of passage always existed.
l heard of Doan's Kidney Pills at time
when l felt that | was going to be sick,
but their use warded off an attack, and |
am now feeling very much better; the
urinary organism has regained q normal
condition, and the terrific pain in my back

triri, as she pitifully said. mot to be
any trouble"
But the little, dropping figure; the
white. wan face; the desolate eyes and
quivering lips were in sorrowful con-
trast to the bright little wife Frank
had worshipped. There had been no
cloud upon their love, even II life had
been full of perplexity, and not one
self-reproach or memory OF harsh
words added to the widows grief.
Less than nothing, for there were
debts to pay, was the result OF wind
ing up the business Frank was con-
Quoting when so suddenly stricken
down. Laura knew this, for there were
never any secrets between her and her
husband. When the first shock was
over she applied to me, as usual, for
advice. II was thinking of taking
boarders," she said. looked down upon
the sweet, pale face, the sky-blue eyes
trying to face life bravely, and /
thought Of the varieties of martyrdom
In this plan. How insolent servants
would bully her! How swindling
boarders would cheat her! How fault
finding women would brighten her!
Il don't think it would do" l said.
Because / am not a good house
keeper? But could learn. Frank
didn't mind. If l was making a pud-
ding and he wanted me to make out
some bills, and the pudding burned up
while l did it, he never scolded a bit
only laughed"
But boarders would scold."
Il wouldn't have any one to call me
away" she said, her tears falling fast.
Can you make out bills?" ! asked.
oh yes! / know all about bookkeep-
ing. was my fathers bookkeeper un-
til he died. At home, you know"
We'll, l think l can get you some
to do!'
And did. By having the work done
at very low prices, l persuaded some
of my business friends to intrust this
work to "a young friend of mine, and
took care that the money passing
through my hand was sufficiently in
creased for Laura's wants.
1t was amazing to see how bravely
she met her trouble, and how much
Christian submission lay in her low
ing heart. She could talk quietly o.
her brief, happy married life, recalling
all her husbands love, and yet pa
tiently bearing her loneliness and sor-
row. She worked faithfully, and many
acts of charity came from her slender
resources for those who were poorer
than herself.
l, who had felt a plying tenderness
for the child-wife was first to add
to that by-gone feeling a sincere re-
spect for the true woman developing
in poverty and grief TO such noble
character. Three years had passed
since that August day when my god
son died, when there came from Cali
fornia a cousin of Laura's, bronzed
and bearded stock farmer, who had
won wealth in that fruitful country
by honest toll and fortunate invest
ments. He was the most startling con-
trast to Frank Tibbitts, a strong, self
reliant man, with loud voice, will

@ecgsness of the Estate Left BY Harriet
8secber Stowe FeH by Her Twn
DoUohters

! HARTFORD, CONN, June 30. - The
meassfness of the estate left by Harriet
bescher Stowe is soon to be made ap-
parent. Her twin daughters, who made a
nome 1or ner on Forest street in this city
so many Years, are in danger of being de-
prlved OF the old home now so historic.
When Mrs. Stowe made her will some
years ago she thought she would leave
property enough to provide amply for her
daughters and also for her son. By
Ieouieil she lbequeathed her Forest-street
mouse to her daughters, but failed to put
her signature to that portion of her will.
When the estate came to be invoiced it
was found thai there was not enough in
the daughters share to support them COM
Ifortably or enable them to keep the old
home for many years. 1t is now learned
that their brother has notified them that
Ihe is about to cell the bouse. The people
who have heard OF the proposed sale of
the house are greatly agtated. 1t has
been suggested that the money which was
10 be raised for a statue OF Mrs. Stowe be
devoted to the purchase OF the house for
The daughters.

FORT ROBINSON, NEBR June 30-The
troops of this post are preparing to en-.
gage in an action against the Bannocks at
a moments notice. Four troops of the
garrison are under orders 10 be in readi-
ness to move for the Fort Hall Indian
Reservation country in case of trouble
with the Indians OF that vicinity. The
troops designated are under command of
Lieutenant Colonel Hamilton, and will be
furnished from Fort D. A. Russell, Wyo.
OMAHA, NEBR., June 80 AT the head
quarters Of the Department OF the Platte
in this city army officers when shown the
fore DING telegram stated it was true that
four troops of the Ninth Cavalry had been
ordered to be In readiness to move to the
Fort Hall reservation from Fort Robin
son. They stated. however, that it was
more than probable the troops would not
move. The order for the soldiers to be in
readiness was taken mercy as precau-
Iionary measure in the event that there
should be an outbreak among the Ban
nocks. Discussing the reported outbreak
OF the Bannocks the officers at army head
quarters laughed. at the idea of a few
hundred Bannocks going upon the war
path. They added that on the Camas
prairie there grew a root the Indians used
in making medicine in cases of sickness.
For many years the Bannocks had visited
the Camas prairie to gather the root.
which is ripe at this particular season of
the year. However, they have gone in
particularly large mum bers, taking their
wives and families with them.
