They did not like the term reputation

After the vote had been announced.
Mrs. Marion H. Durham of Iowa offered
a resolution to the effect that. while the
w. c. T. [. no longer recognized the
Temple debt as a legal obligation, it
still would consider it a moral obliga-

Draws $4,000,

Topeka, Kas., March 2~S-(Special.) The
Equitable Life, of New York. has not yet
served formal notice on McNall OF its with
drawal from Kansas. although he expects
it now almost any day. The Equitable
sent its Western agent to see McNall a few
days ago and arrange affairs SO that 1t
would not have to give the amount OF SAL
aries its officers drew, and also would not
be required to comply with the special pro-
vision concerning tontine business. McNalI
said that the company would lave to give
up the information he had called for If it
expected to do business in Kansas. The
Western agent notified the company of his
unsuccessful efforts to change McNalTs
policy and the company concluded to with
draw. McNall says that the president of
the Equitable gets SIS. 900 a year.

Sentimental Smoke Damar...

Among the peculiarities Of the recent
downtown. Chicago fires are claims for
smoke and other sentimental damages on
contents Of buildings more or less remote
from the fire. The variation In views as
to the actual loss is always large. as may
be seen from one Instance where the own
insurance men place the loss at $50. In an
other case a claim Of 10000 was made
where 1t Is believed no loss existed, but
a compromise Of several hundred dollars
was finally made against the strong pro.
test of some OF the companies interested
Those we'll versed say that such claims
are for the most part imaginary and would
not be co~untenanced except for the weak
ness Of the local agents.
