Insurance Against Hail in Iowa.

The armer of Iowa are making sue
cessful a system of insurance against
hail, a organized for that pur-
pose at Des Moines five years ago hav-
ing now more than 10000 policies and
more than 1000, 900 acres of farming
lands. 1t has paid in losses $1,000 in
1898. 1876, 900 in 1894. $S1, 900 in 1895, $751;
900 in 1896, and 1904 900 in 1897, or a to-
tai of $500, 900. The average assessment
has been Z cents per acre per year. The
concern is mutually cooperative. Mem
bers pay a fee of 81 and 2 mills on the
amount on which insurance is asked,
and the association insures its mem
bers. their heirs or assigns, against loss
or damage by hail to the growing crops
to an amount not to exceed 5000 on 100
acres according TO government survey.
No loss is paid which occurs later than
the goth of September. This form OF
insurance protection against a danger
which constantly mi Western
farming has been found as satisfactory
in practical test, ii is said, as the tor
nado associations Of the same region.
A farmer whose crops are injured and
who does not receive pecuniary compen-
sation gets one bushel of the kind Of
grain destroyed for each 100 bushels
raised by the other members of the CO.

TO OTHER RACE TRACKS
Horses and Horsemen Leaving
Great Falls for Hamilton.
SOME WILL GO TO BOISE
Starter Regain F~avorably Impressed
With h Northern Metropolis and
the Good People There-A
Pleasant Meeting.

Great Falls, Sept. 25.-Great Falls
closed and to-day the horsemen are
making arrangements to ship their
horses, part to Boise and part to Hamil-
ton. Pat Regain, the starter, has engag-
ed to go to Boise, but will first
spend two days at Hamilton, for the
purpose of seeing the town and the
meeting, and in particular. to get a
look at the great DAILY breeding ranch.
In speaking last night of the meeting,
which has just closed here, he said that
in coming here he had an idea that
Great Falls was a place where a starter
might have to buckle on a pair of six
shooters n be prepared to exchange
leaden compliments with cowboy riders,
who objected to his style of starting. At
the very least he was ready to jump
the fence at the end of the second day
and get home the nearest way. But he
had been very pleasantly disappointed.
The horsemen had all been very nice to
him and so had the management and
the citizens. Every one seemed to be
anxious to nave good, clean racing and
were at all times ready to back up the
officials of the track. There had been no
ttdplt hlChlIS dilu Nlt Ao"h AAEtAA
had made such a favorable impression
upon him that for the first time he was
sorry to close his engagement and go
away. He hoped that Great Falls would
be included in the circuit for 1899 and
that it would be his good fortune to re-
turn for that meeting, in one capacity
or another.
. The following owners will ship to
Hamilton: II. G. Covington, /. More
house, T. E. Butler. w. A. Stotesbury,
j. Cochran, L. G.. Smith, +. Van Ness.
J. ]. Moran, A. Neal, Dan Conlay, T. F..
Mclaughlin, r.. Smith, ]. c. Twohy, w.
D.. Randall, f. Mcmahon, j. S. Dough-
erty, d. Phillips, Marcus Daily. The
others have not yet decided whether
they will ship to Boise or direct to the
coast.
There are a few Jockeys fines not yet
paid, but these will be collected by Bob
Curran at the Hamilton meeting or by
Regan at Boise. Some of the fines will
most likely have the effect of barring
the jockies receiving them from all
further riding in this circuit. as their
services will hardly be worth to any
owner the amount which II will be ne
cessary to put up to clear the boys.
Yesterday morning there was a little
race at the track. which was not in
cluded in the programme, and was put
up by the owners for a pure of s35. Ben
Led ran against Agate for five fur
longs, winning in 1:02h.
Another incident of the meeting was
the sale made by w. ID. Randall of the
stallion Robair to Frank Smith of Big
Sandy. The price paid was $500 and
the animal will probably be used for
breeding purposes. Some time ago the
animal was sold for SO, 900, but his knee
was injured and he has not been able
since to go upon the track.

creased loans $50. 900. 900 during the
month Of September will give way to a
moderate adjustment. II begins to look
as though the New York banks will
not be called upon to the sua extent
for cash money. Eighty millions Of
treasury deposits widely distributed are
important in this connection, and the
recent rise in rates in New York de-
veloped the fact that interior institu-
lions had plenty of money to loan at
prevailing rates. Banks here having
heavy country business show rather a
large falling off in deposits. but redis-
counting is said to be small. The re-
cent tendency has developed an effort
to enlarge circulation and the increase
of $500, 400 for the week, based on new
3 per cent bonds, was X out prin-
cipally by two banks.

HlLARITY, THEN THE JAIL.
4 Few Jocks and swipes Go Too Deep
Into the Red Gun,

INTO the Red cup.
Great Falls, Sept. 25.-Racing week
has passed with less activity in police
circles than had been expected. The
men who were suspected Of being at
all shady were treated very firmly at
the station by Chief Guerin and his
officers, and in -nsequen they have
been meek and quiet. There are some
echoes of the track still in the city to
Judge of the names and occupations
Of the men arrested to-day. They are
mostly those who desired to celebrate
their winnings or drown the memory
of their losses, and the charge is us
ually that of Trunk or drunk and dis
orderly. This is the case with Phil
Tracy, who was drunk and refused to
pay for a meal that he had eaten in
a restaurant, or to leave the place. He
is on to-morrow's list. William Mat
fino, an employee at the race track. went
out last night and overindulged his
appetite for strong liquors, and he is
also an inmate Of the Jail. John Sui
Ivan, a horseman, is under arrest for
carrying concealed weapons, and will
get his trial tomorrow. John Epper-
son, a Jockey, was arrested last night
on the charge of attempting to beat his
board bill at the Great Falls hotel.
He had his examination. at which he
pleaded not guilty and was bound over
on $50 bonds to appear tomorrow
morning in Judge Burleigh's court. He
furnished the bond.
The only other arrest Of the day was
of a Mrs. Moreland, who resides on the
west side. She has been a little off
in her mind the last few days, and this
morning she wandered along the bank
Of the Missouri river and at a point
neal the Montana brewery. tried to
throw herself into the water n COM
NIT suicide by drowning. She succeed
ed in the first part of her plan. but
the water was shallow and before she
could get to deeper water Officer Bis
sett was after her and brought her to
land. She is at the city Jail tonight.
but seems rational and IL she improves
by morning she will probably be al
lowed 10 go. The officers believe that
her insanity is only temporary and is
induced by either morphine or the ex-
cessfve use of alcoholic stimulants.

There is considerable rivalry in the

democrats and some are republicans.
Some are married and some are not-not

enough 10 become bCnedicts. Some few
weeks ago the chief OF the money de-
partment of the COUNT became the happy
father OF a big republican boy. at which
there was great rejoicing in the republi-
can ranks and the West Bozeman pre-
cinct. Last week the democrats received
great and Joyous news. One OF the dep
uties OF the district clerks office brought
down 20 the disconsolate wing Of the dem
ocratic portion OF tho game the news that
he. too. was the father OF a boy-a great
