Dear Sir: ] ac- knowledge the receipt Of your com pany's rheck for ten thousand lSi0,- COO dollars, in full payment of the two policiesheld by by my late hUs- band, Captain Wm. O. O'Nejil, IsJ U. s. Volunteer Cavalry, who was killed in she charge on San Juan hill near Santiago de Cuba, July lst, 6S9S.
 The Captain only applied for this insurance two months before his death, and the policies had only been in my pOssessien for a few weeks when they were matured by his ur- timely death. I desire to thank you for the active assistance you have extended me m having tbe claim promptly settled and to state further that your company has paid the claim as promptly as possible ani without any question whatsoever. 1 cheerfully recommend the New York Life Insurance Company to anyone desiring insurance that really in sures and can be relied on to furnish protection when it is most needed. The fact that your company for warded me their cheek the VERY DAY the the proofs of death were re- ceived by them, Is sufficient com mentarV on their manner of line death claims, and sufficient answer to the unwarranted rumOrs, inspired by malicious parties, that they in- tended to contest the claim l. gives me pleasufe 60 raTute these rumors and state that they were ab- solutely without foundation in fact. l remain. Yours very truly.

Col. Myron H. McCord.

A copy of the Daily Arizona JOURNAL MINER sent the Times con- tains an account of the presenta- ton of a gold mounted sword by the citizens of PheHix to Col. Myron H. McCord. of the First Regiment, Arizona, New Mexico and Oklahoma volunteers. Col. McCord who, from his long residence in Wisconsin, is better known in the Badger state than in Arizona, re- signed the governorship of the lat ter to accept the colonelcy of a regiment formed in Arizona, New Mexico and Oklahoma, which regi- ment is likely to be continued in the service some time. The conduct of Mir. McCord in this instance is certainly admirable from the stand point of patriotism, and a man who would resign the off e of gov ernor to enter military servIce, ever as a colonel, is deserving of praise and sets a good example.-Oshkosh Wis., Times.

locomotives mado for the Delaware
and Hudson Canal company, in Eng
land, under direction of HOratio Al
len, q civil engineer. 1t was brought
to New York. but was found too weak
TO admit of its use with safety. ana
horses took It's place on the levels. The
expense of building the canal was
greater than had been estimated. The
1880, OO0 cash capital of the company
was not sufficient to complete II. and
the state loaned its credit in aid OF
the enterprise to the extent Of S502,OO0
In 1929 rival companies attempted to
crush the Delaware and Hudson COM
pany, circulating stories that its coal
deposits was useless as fuel, ana the
early bankruptcy of the corporation
was predicted. Dividends were aban-
doned for II time, and shares which
had cost 500 each and earned no didl-
dends for five or six years sank in

PHILIP HONE INTERNENES.
The dissolution of the company was
only aVerted through the action of
Philip Hone, who raised the whole sum
necessary to save the organization ana
handed it to the president without Sc
curity. In 1894 loan was effected
from the state of New York, and when
it matuIed i'm 1919 it was promptly
paid. In 1880 the companys mines
produced 43COO tons, and in 1860 tho
product had reached &,0000OO tons. In
1870 the profits of the company were
h4,t,
it's capital stock. This was at the
height of its prosperity. Then there
were 14oO boats plying the waters of
the canal.
But railroad competition has reduced
the business until last year there were
only 250 boats carrying coal. OF itself
the canal is Il cheap route for carry
in" coal. but owing t. the extra hand
ling required to transfer the product
from the cars To the boats and tho
boats to the blrgcS, il is unable tu
compete with steam roads. The gray
itV road has been during the winter a
source Of expense by reason Of the
snow dlitts on the mountains. ID 10
1870 the canal had cost oyer Sc OOO. 600
