A SPLENDID SHOWING.
NORTHWESTERN LIFE AND SAY.
INGS co.
An Iowa Institution, Which is Being
Envied by All of The Greatest
Investment Companies.
Progressing Rapidly.

Mr.. Nelson j. Russell, executive
special for the Northwestern Life and
Savings Company, of Des Moines, is in
the city in the interest of the above
company, and the wonderful success il
has achieved, as well as the plan OF
investment which it offers, is worthy
Of universal consideration.
The plan of this company, briefly
stated, is as follows: To provide the
element of security, the company was
organized under the insurance laws OF
Iowa, thus making an investment with
IT as safe as government bond. To
provide the element of profit, the death
loss is reduced to the minimum, and
each persistent policyholder is given
his full proportion of all benefit derived
from lapses.
Policies in this company are written
for ten years only, and are divided into
shares, each person sustaining as many
shares as he may desire. A single
share costs $3.50 month or $50 year
and may be paid monthly, quarterly
semi-annually, or annually. Each
share provides an insurance benefit in
event of death during the first five
years of $50. 90 and of$30O. 90 the second
i've years of the endowment period, but
ii maintained till the end of ten years
each share is guaranteed to produce the
sum of $4,000 and accumulations, con-
sisting of each policyholder's full share
Of interest earnings and all profit from
Iapses from the reserve fund.
Policies are exempt from execution
and taxation. No medical examina-
tion is required, both sexes are eligible,
and rates are the same for all ages,
from five to sixty. Loans equaling ga
per cent of all deposits made will be
granted by the company after the third
year, thus making the policy easy to
maintain.
When this company was organized
in 1896 its promoters had large faith in
the popularity of the plan. The success
actually attained, however, has far sur
passed their expectations. 1t is re-
garded in insurance circles as absolute
~ phenomenal. More policies were
issued in Iowa by the Northwestern
Life and Savings Company during the
year 1898 than by any other old-line
company doing business in the state.
ITS gross admitted assets increased from
S60, 000 90 in 1897 to sl34, 10000 in 1898,
and its first mortgages on Iowa farms
deposited with the Auditor of State
rose from $36 ,6l2 90 in 1897 to $l19 .612.OO
in 1898. 1t is safe to say that no finan-
cial institution before the public to-day
is so challenging the consideration and
receiving the unqualified endorsement
Of intelligent, conservative people, as
is the Northwestern Life and Savings
Company of Des Moines.. Some of the
brainiest men and greatest inanciers
Of Iowa are among its officers, which
has inspired public confidence in the
concern from its organization. 1t is
rsceiving the unstinted praise of
the press of this and other states
daily, and we have no hesitation in
saying that we consider it one of the
safest and best plans of combined in
gestment and insurance in existence.

Austin, New, Nov. 6.-An Indian,

Otherwise There Is but Little Change in
His Condition.
Paterson, n. j., Nov. 6.-The condi-
ton of Vice President Hobart was but
little changed Monday except that he
was slightly weaker. He spent a
fairly comfortable night and slept a
good part of the night. DR.. Newton
again spent the night at Carol Hall
and said at o'clock Monday morning
that Mr.. Hobart rested as well as could
be expected under the circumstances
He denied emphatically the statement
published i'm one of the morning pa
pers to the effect that Mr.. Hobart was
suffering from cancer Of the stomach.
He said that the statement given out
by him several days ago with the con-
sent of the family entirely covered the
malady Of the vice president, and add
ed that there had been no new develop
ment of the disease. His official morn
ing bulletin contained nothing beyond
the above statements.
Many letters and kilograms of SYM
pathy have been received and Mr.. and
Mrs. Mckinley daily send a telegram
and a box of roses and violets to Car

Hobart took a lively interest in the
news Of the day, extending to the Boer
situation and the coming election, but
that he Or. Newton) and the members
of the family discouraged such discus
sions as likely to unduly excite him.
Mr.. Hobart takes no solid food and
comparatively little liquid nourish-
ment. His vitality, upon which he is
living, is remarkable, and his cheerful
ness is strong factor in sustaining
the members of the family in their
affection. He fully realizes that his
end is near.

Neighbors Beers Command the Rail-
way Between Kimberly and Cape Town.
London, Nov. 6.-Attention is mo-
mentarily transferred to the northern
frontier, where the Beers are advanc-
ing and the small British detachments
are retreating. Dispatches from Cape
Colony points indicate extreme disaf-
lection among the Cape Dutch, who
are exulting over the Boer successes
in Natal and are verging on an out
break. No new particulars have been
received of the engagement Thursday
at Bester's Hill. The war Office is in
clined to minimize the results of the
fight. Renewed hope is in the hearts
of the populace since the report that
the Beers surrounding Ladysmith were
defeated near Besters Hill. While
the gain is believed to have been slight,
the engagement demonstrated that the
British were still able to take the Of

graphed the news to the war depart
ment from Cape Town, and the report

crowds cheered the promulgated dis
patch.
Slight Success for British.
The correspondent of The Standard
at Ladysmith says the British scored
slight success, that was sufficient to
show the enemy that they are still
equal to aggressive battle. He adds
that the Fifth lancers and some field
artillery drove command of Free
State Beers from their camp, five
miles to the southwest of the town.
Only three of the British soldiers were
hit News from Natal is still meager,
and what has been received is mixed,
the main feature being three accounts
of Thursdays fighting around Lady
smith. One of these describes the TAX
ing of the Boer camp at Besters Hill
in such fashion as would mean, if it
were true, distinct check to the Free
State burghers. 1t is understood that
the Beers have proclaimed the upper
Tugela division of Natal annexed to
the Orange Free State. A dispatch to
The Daily Mail, dated Burghersdorp.
Nov. 2, says that the large British
camp at Stromberg Junction has been
broken up by order of General Sir
Redvers Butler and everything has
been moved to Queenstown, fifty miles
to the southwark.
Beers Command the Route.
Thirty-fives hundred Beers have
crossed the bridge mt Bethulia, destroy
ing sections of the railroad near that
place. Reports show that while the
British still hold De Aar and the Or
ange river bridge, the Beers have the
latter undermined, thus commanding
the route from Cape Town to Kimber-
ley. A report that the Basutos have
risen is telegraphed from Cape Town.
1t is not given official credence. If it
were true the Beers of the Orange
Free State would find their time full

~ occupied. The rising of one tribe
of natives in South Africa means the
rising of all. Repeated rumors that
the Ladysmith garrison has capitu-
lated are received from Europe, but Ill
are denied at the war office, it being
held that JOubert would be the first
to proclaim such a victory. Buffers
movements are now the subject of uni
versal speculation. The war office is
necessarily silent on this subject. The
mobilization at Delagoa Bay of the
force en- route to the Cape is a posi-
BILE coup.
Humanity on Both Sides.
The humanity of both armies in
caring for the wounded and the court
eous exchange of prisoners are among
the redeeming features Of the HOSTILE
ties. The British transport Nineveh
has reached Cape Town. The New
South Wales Lancers from Aldershot
were aboard. The Tenth Hussars
sailed from Liverpool on the transport

Beers are displaying great courage and
skill in the management of their ar
tillery, but that the British guns are
the more effective. especially those
brought from the Powerful. General
Butler has ordered the withdrawal OF
the troops at Stormberg Junction. The
detachment was sent to Queenstown
