How many of US who can now
write 1899 will live to write 1902
How many widows of the present
generation of married men will be
sofrowing, and perhaps, suffering
from want of necessities of life,
poverty stricken, no protector, no
one to earn bread, no income, no
bank account, only life without
hope of relief from the pangs of hum
ger, and the misery of nowhere to
pillow the aching head when weari-
ness demands rest? Not one widow,
the relict of IL member of the A. O.
U. W, for every one of the 1000
widows of ourdeceased Brothers will
have nice little sum in the bank
81 900 or $4,000, and while she will
be sorrowing for the loss of him who
was 50 near and so dear, her thought
will be most kindly, for herself and
the children were provided for by
the brotherhood and their minds
are content in the submission to the
"Divine will" Your neighbor's
family is not provided for; ask him
to Join the A. O. U. w. and thereby
protect his family. In 1900 may be
too late-too late. We will not ac-
cept as members any one who will
probably or even possibly die before
1900, but even next week may be
too late, for the man who is robust
and healthy to-day, may die to-
morrow.

Fraternity has mission to per
form in this world over and above
the simple fact OF giving protection
to the loved ones of deceased MEM
hers. This it has successfully ac-
complished, and will continue to do
so till eternity, but in addition, it
will bring about conditions that
will obviate the misfortunes Of pow
erty. 1t will teach men and women
that there is more in life to live for
than the few passing dollars and
cents that come to and go from us
with systematic regulation that
betokens continuous labor to pro-

duce it, and constant demand to
take away. 1t will teach the world
that God intends that all shall exist
and enjoy life, without being OPP
pressed by few that they may revel
in luxury at the expense of the
many. 1t will bring about a situa-
ton that will make all men equal !;
laws will he made aud enforced for
all alike. 1t will teach that no man
has any right to more OF this world s
goods than he can use to advantage,
and that peace, happiness and good
will to all will come only through a
desire on the part of each to act
generously with his neighbor, and
to possess only what properly be-
longs to him or should be used by
him, for his comfort and ease. In
short, fraternity will educate the
world up to the idea Of the Father
hood of God and the brotherhood of
man.-Oregon Frater.

O. U. W

A man must reap as he sows. If he sows
ill-health he will reap ll-health. If he
neglects his health the weeds of disease
will grow up and choke it.
II is a daily and hourly marvel that men
will recklessly neglect their health, when
a moments thought should tell them that
they are courting death. 1t lies in most
every mans power TO live to green old
age If man would only take the same
care of himself that he does of his horse, or
COW, or dog he would enjoy good health.
When man owns a hundred-dollar horse,
and it gets sick, he does not waste any time
about doctoring him up When his garden
gets full of weeds, he doesn't delay about
roofing them out, for he knows they will
choke out his vegetables. When he is out
of sorts, sick, nervous, headachey, has no
appetite and is restless and sleepless at
night, he pays little attention to it. The
result is consumption, nervous prostration
or some serious blood or skin disease. DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is the
I best of all medicines for hard working men.
1t gives edge to the appetite, facilitates the
flow of digestive juices invigorates the
liver and puri6es and euriches the blood.
1t is the great blood-maker and flesh

the lungs are too far wasted to admit of

Don't Let him Get Away.

A great deal of difficulty is ex
perienced by members when they
start out to secure new members,
and to assist them in the work we
quote the following good advice:
Hard work is better than 'pecu-
liar knack."
Go straight to the heart of the
matter. Don't beat about the bush.
Rest assured that misrepresenta-
ton will be detected, and there is a
penalty.
The man who has declined to in
sure ten times may consent on the
eleventh trial.
II you anticipate a rebuff, and
show it in your manner, yon will
be sure to receive it.
Be thoroughly posted about your
own Order, and scarcely less about
competing Orders.
Be generous when you discuss
your competitors and the canvasser
will be generous with you.
The man who already carries a
policy may take out another, or at
least he may be relied upon to say
a good word as he introduces the
canvasser to "likely subject"
In canvassing, letters and circu-
lars are merely Introductory. Per-
sonal work, face to face soliciting,
alone effects anything.
Every good risk can be insured.
Work is necessary, hard work some,
times to be sure, but faith in sue
cess supplies all needed resolution
and energy
Silence is often more effective
than loquacity The thought may
often come to you in moment OF
silence. There is such a thing as
talking a man to death.
1t takes bushel of arguments to
inspire the confidence of a man
with very small income. He is
likely to think all corporations are
robbers.
If deputy or member is caught
in falsehood his goose is cooked" /"
Stick to the truth. Life insurance
does not need to be bolstered with
falsehoods.
Don't approach a man as if you
were in donbt. Don't talk to him
as If you felt that he probably
didn't need or didn't have conf
dence in life insurance He may
conclude that he does not need it.
or that there is some ground fol
distrusting it.
Look at your man. Is he good
risk2 Is he in good health? Is he
in receipt of a decent income from
his trade, business or professioni
Then he is your man--the man you
are looking for. He is a fit subject
for your arguments. He can be
insured. d.-Col. JeaoeU.

The looked for "Installation exer-
cises and program" were given at
length last evening, to an apprecia-

The program consisted of fifteen
numbers, many OF the performers
showed very exceptional ability.
The Orchestra consisting of Har
monica viii Denton, champion solo
ist, Cornet Ben Williams, band lead
er, Organ Miss Minnie CarInan who
discoursed sweet music at intervals
in the program. The chorus con-
sisting of Mesdames Campbell, Os
borne, Freudenthal, and Cook, and
the Misses Carman; Messrs. Bath
urst, Williams, Goodrich and Pettee
sang very acceptably. Recitations

lightfully rendered and received
much applause The Harmonica
selection was finely rendered and

Address by II. E. Prudential
was a carefully written and plain
declaration of the duties Of the Or

it does, the Order A, O. U. w. a
power in the world for good.
The Solo by Ben Williams and
the chorus was we'll executed and
gave the audience much pleasure

Mouse" was very amusing attempt
to laugh at the ladies' fear of mice
but failure to shoulder the feat
exclusively on the ladies.
The program closed with an Ode
by the chorus and members of the
Order, program that would be
creditable in much more preten-
tious locality.

bered by Gas Company Employees.
Mr.. B. T. Ellison late general man
ager Of the st. Pauf Gas Light company,
was again the recipient of q handsome
and costly present yesterday afternoon.
On Wednesday evening the many en-
ployes Of the Jackson street office pre-
sented him a beautiful bronze figure
piece. Yesterday evening, in the shops
Of the gas works, on John street, the en-
ployes Of that department brought Mr.
Ellison down in a carriage and bid him
accept the gift from their hands of a
large and handsome cut glass punch
bowl. There are four pieces, the sa1Yer
being solid silver, the Iadle the same,
and the standard and bowl proper in two
sections. On g. silver plate was en-
graved:

pEoyes Of the st. Paul Gas Light COM
pany. gas manufacture and gas storage
departments. Jan. l. 1900"
Mr.. Ellison was ushered into the room
and asked to be seated in his old chair,
which he occupied fourteen years ago,
when he had charge Of this department.
Mr.. V. J.. Ebert then said:
The employees Of the st. Paul Gas
works, for whom you have acted as gen
eraI manager for so many years, hearing
of your contemplated resignation from
this company, requested me to have you
again see you seated in the old chair you
formerly occupied when among them, di-
recting. them, as gas man is called to
do night or day. assisting them. when

the little homes these men return to
after day of toll in heat, smoke and
dust. have sought your kindly advice in
times of trouble and have always re-
ceived your personal attention. These
men have remembered these many acts
of kindness, and regret keenly your with
drawal from the management of this
company, but knowing your health may
be benefited by the change, somewhat
compensate them in the loss Of their
chief
Before taking your departure they
wish you to carry with you to your home
this .memento Of their esteem, "a Low
ing Cup" as it were. and each time you
depths that you will gain strength and
vigor and keep a. warm spot in your
heart for us all. Wishing you Godspeed
in your new field Of labor and success
through life, we bid you farewell.
In reply Mr.. Ellison traced, to some
extent, the history Of his connection with
the company. He said that he had been
through the same arduous service as the
men before him. But he was not going
far away, only to West Superior, and
he hoped to remain in touch with "alI Of
the old boys" He could not but feel that
they were paying him too high honors,
as such testimonials as he had received
on Wednesday and last night would be
appreciated by the biggest men in the
United States.
In the evening quite a number of Mr..
Ellison's associates met at his house, 642

Auditor Dunn's Trial Balance Shows
1t. to Be Growing.
State Auditor Dunn has completed q
trial balance of the state school fund
which shows the total amount outstand-
ing on land contracts to the credit Of the
general school fund to be 500, 1884.
Since the close of the fiscal year of 1888,
$420, 649.8S has been paid on these con-
tracts, which Mr.. Dunn considers a very
gratifying showing.
The following amounts are due from the
counties of more recent settlement, rang
ing from accounts Of 100000 and upwards:
Yellow Medicine, $172,0O1.69 Willzin, $179,-

The balance is distributed among the
other counties of the state in amounts Of
less than 100000
The amount outstanding has been re-
duced during the year $4,000. The total
amount Of interest that is due on con-
tracts and from daily balances IS $685.
676.SS.
In addition to the amounts due from
contracts and that on deposit the per-
manent school fund owns over Sc, 900 900
worth of interest-bearing bonds OF other
states, which brings the total amount to
the credit of the permanent school fund
to 81, $50, OoO
The fund. which now amounts to over
| Sc, ,0O0, 900 all told, Is constantly growing
The state receives 5 per cent on the land
| contracts, and as fast as the money is
paid in on these instruments, it is turned
into the general school fund and loaned
out to towns, school districts, for munich
pal improvements, and that which is not
invested in this way is deposited In the
various banks of tho state or invested
in bonds of other states. At a recent
meeting of the state board of investment
the interest ratio on. daily balances of
state funds was raised to per cent, and
that amount is paid by all state banks
who carry on deposit the states money.

vestment, is at all times earning money,
