state Insurance In Germany.

The Berlin Tageblatt, of recent
date, contains some astonishing
figures received from the imperial
home office regarding the German
system of state insurance OF work
ingmen. There exists in Germany
a system of insurance for all work
men or employees against old age.
Disablement pay was granted In
1897 to $4,000 workingmen and
women, and old age pensions were
awarded to $4,000 persons, the
amounts together so paid totalling
Sl35,O00,000. The contributions
to the insurance fund or what may
be called the premiums paid, which
are in the proportion of one third
from the employers, one-third from
the workmen and ne-third from
the State, amounted to $125,0OO,-
600, the interest on which will
eventually permit of reduction in
the amounts to he contributed.
There were $4,000 industrial
establishment in the Fatherland at
the end of 1897, with 5,750,O00 in
sured persons insured against acci,
dent; and there were 4,645,OOO
agricultural settlements with IL
100000 persons similarly insured.
In addition to all these, the work
ers in the building trades have to
he reckoned, so that the total num-
ber of workingmen insured against
accidents in Germany in 1897
amounted roundly to 18,000,O0O
The number of accidents, fatal OF
otherwise, was $4,000 and the
money compensation paid in lump
sums or annually to $4,000 of the
insured was $16,OOO,0OO!

Men who go out fishing in an open boat
in the midst of a binding storm and enjoy
1t, must be strong and healthy and are
pretty sure to live to ripe old age. Un-
fortunately, the rush and hurry of modern
business life will not permit the average
man to take frequent outdoor exercise.
In lieu of life spent partly in the woods
and on the water, a man must find some
kind of medicine to tone up and invigorate
him and incite the vital organs of his body
to the faithful performance of their normal
functions. DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery is the only thoroughly effective
medicine for this purpose. Its principal
action is upon the organs that feed the
blood, the stomach, the large intestines and
the liver. 1t facilitates the flow of the di-
gestive juices in the stomach and the
production of healthy chyle in large guam
titles in the large intestines. 1t invigorates
the liver and purifies and enriches the
blood. When the blood is rich and pure
the old, inert tissues throughout the body
are torn down and replaced by new and
healthy flesh tissues and nerve hbers. If
mans blood is filed with the rich, pure
elements of health, he can get along with
scanty amount of exercise. Disease germs
CAR gain no foothold in his system

No good man, no Brother with
a pure heart and right intentions,
will desire to be excused from his
duty. Those who cherish respect
for fraternity and its teachings will
esteem attendance at the Lodge
meetings privilege rather than
burden, a pleasure rather than an
irksome task. There is no test
more clearly reveals the amount of
regard which members cherish for
their Lodge or the welfare of the
Order and the carrying out of it's
principles, than their habits of at
tendance at stated meetings Were
all as negligent as some in this re-
spect, the Lodge-room would cease
to be, and the great good which is
heing accomplished by our beloved
Order would cease. .-Fraternal Ne,os.

During the current month six
losses by death have been reported
in our Jurisdiction. They are as
follows: Michael Harrington, who
died at Butte, Montana, Thomas
Mcnamara, who was drowned in
the Klondike country. A. E. Bouch-
er, all OF Storey Lodge No. 3; also
E. T. Plank, of Gold Hill Lodge
No. 2; G.. A. Fletcher, of Alpha
Lodge No. 1; and A. S. Dickson, of
Silver City Lodge No. 16. These
deaths will swell the claim to be
made on the Supreme Relief Fund
to about $11 900, which will prac-
tically be the same as last year. 1t
was hoped that the relief required
by Nevada Jurisdiction this year
would be somewhat reduced from
former demands, and at one time it
looked as though $4,000 or $4,000
would be all that would he required.
but the deaths of last month catne

Grand Recorder Gignoux received
a letter this week from Bro. George
Garrison, of River Lodge No. 6, A.
o. U. W., who it was reported was
lost somewhere in the Klondike
country. An item was going the
rounds of the press recently to the
effect that nothing had been heard
from Mr.. Garrison for a year or
more, and that his wife had recent
ly returned from the north after a
vain search for him. The letter re-
ceived by Recorder Gignoux was
dated at Dawson City, Oct. 10th
last, and reports Garrison all right;
also stating that Ed. Reynolds is
getting along nicely.

Assessment Rates.

Every month or so some new fra
ternal society presents itself as an
aspirant for public favor upon the
basis of more favorable rates and
increasing benefits than its older
competitors. So far az the increas-
ing benefits are concerned, the fra
ternal societies that offer so much,
will find that they will not be able
to fulfill their promises. The So
cieties to-day, which charge the
highest rates, are not charging more
than sufficient to pay for benefit
Mt death, and to add to this Death
Benefit. semi-endowment features
or disability benefits, is simply to
take into the system more than 1T
can stand at The rates charged,
Then again, most of the new socie
Ties expect to obtain their success
upon the smallness OF the rates,
believing they can hood-w'iE
enough people to JON during the
early years, with the prospect of
getting something for nenrly moth
ing, and then raising the rates upon
them when the mortality makes it
necessary If people go into these
cheap societies with this knowledge,
we'll aud good, but we are of the
opinion that most of those who go
into such societies, gn in with the
expectation that the rates in force
at the time OF entering, will con-
tinue.
There is no excuse mt the present
time for any new society to be start
ed with insufficient rates, and it
such societies are started upon rates
that no sensible man believes can
he perpetuated, it simply follows
that those who start such societies,
manifestly expect to fool the public.
Experience upon these lines, is so
weighty, and so recent, that there
is no room for argument. All of
the older societies have been COM
pelled by the necessity of increasing
mortality, to re"djnst their rates,
and some of them giving the mat
ter too husty consideration, have
been compelled t" MAKE other
changes. 1t is important that when
change is made, or when rates
are computed, that they be sutfici-
ent. One of the old societies, whose
annual meeting WAS recently held
in Detroit, has made at least three
changes in It's rates, and all of
these changes have been the ont
come of pressing mortality liabili-
ties. And yet in the face of this
experience, and this object lesson,
the promoters Of new societies step
into the field and audaciously
promise to fulfill what the older
societies have found by bitter ex-
perience, they are unable to per-
form. Do not be cajoled by the
fulsome promises and pompous
provisions of the new claimants for
public favor. Their cheapness will
prove their destruction, and those
who pin their faith with them, will
be very much disappointed.-P. s.

Allen, Assistant Secretary Vanderl1p, As

cially notified Of the purpose OF the peo-
pie of the United States to present MIN

expressed his gratitude for the tender,
which he freely accepted. He SAID mad
the proposed home been the gift Of few
wealthy men he should feel indisposed to
accept it. But he noted that the found had
over 4S, 900 subscribers, indicating that the
home was to be really the gift Of the
American people and as such he would
accept 1t with as much pleasure as he
had the sword bestowed upon him by
congress. He then talked upon the loca-
ton Of the residence. The admiral show
ed a decided preference for the section
in which he had made his home during
his former details of duty in Washington.
He W1SAed the mouse to De 1OCel6u3 ilit liz

The committee listened to ALI these
wishes and saw no reason why each and
all could not be gratified. The admiral is

even a better showing.
Now the Twin Cities cannot afford to
have this great gateway to the East, this
great equalizer of rates closed by the
passing of it's stock into hostile hands.
Local capital can do itself and the com.
munity much good by seeking investment
in 500 stock.
But even if the opposition lines were to
get hold of the 500, they would keep it
quiet, for its existence is the great excuse
for some Of them not to stand by their
own agreements.
If the 500 were ever to become less in

bad day for the Twin Cities. This gen

The Minneapolis & st. Louis Omaha

the read completed sometime in Novem-
Der, but delays caused by the bad
weather last summer and the utter I'M
possibility of getting the steel for the

it impossible to close the line this year

the grading is now substantially done all

1t will be impossible to get the steel

that the road will be in shape to handle
