The Directors of the UNION MUTUAL
LiFE Insurance COMPANY have the
honor to present to Its Polisyholders the
FrFTIErH ANNUAL REPORT of the COM
pany.
Tho year of 1899 was one of unprece-
deDted prosperity to this Company, a
larger number of policies and greater
volume vi New Insurance having been
written than in any year since the Home
Office of the Company has been located
in Portland and for several years previ-
Gus TO it's removal from Massachusetts, to
Name.
At the beginning of the year the man
agement of the Company asked it's repre-
seatatives In the field To write Ten Mil
lions OF New Business before the close
of December, and the fact that 1920 Poll
cies, aggregating s1o, 352, 6T4, have been
placed upon the books of the Company
is practical declaration of the earnest,
faithful work that has been performed
By those employed in che field service of
the Union Mutual. A greater compli-
ment could hardly be paid to the repre-
sentatives of the Company than the
record they have made In accomplishing
larger results than they were asked to
achieve by the Home Office at the com
mencoment of the year. This Company
is fortunate in having field organization
of capable Superinendents and efficient
Managers of its several agencies. These
representatives of the Company are en-
titled to receive the commentator of its
Officers and Directors.
The New Insurance written in Maine,
and likewise the Insurance in Force, as
will be seen from the comparative state
ment below for ten years, (Which sur
passes that of any prior period,) exceeds
that of any previous year in the history
of the Company and demonstrates that
it enjoys the confidence of the intell-
gent citizens of this State, who are its
neighbors and are thoroughly CONVEX
SAINT with its current affairs and the
methods by which its business is con-
Quoted.

what the Democrats win DO at the
Meeting Here To-day.

Along with the Bryan meetings In
Portland today comes this meeting Of the
Democratic state oommittse at which the
Nebrasks Colonel will be invited 10 be
present and talk things over In an in
formal way.
The must important thing 30 be settled
will be the matter Of the time and place
for holding the state convention. As far
as the gubrrnatoria candidate is con-
cerned, there IL no contest-it is to be
samuel Lord, OF Ssoo. But there are two
or three cities which would like to have
the Democracy foregather with them.
BY the rights OF rotation the convention
really belongs TO the capital city. but 10
IL understood that Lewiston will make q
strong bid to pull In her direotion. Au-
gusta hasn't hsd the convention since
1890. Bangor had it In '92, Lewiston In
"a, Portland In 'e6 and In '9s, Bangor
gathered it unto herself once more. 30
Augusta looks upon IL ss her right. But
Lewltton says that since Bangor has had
1t twice there Is no reason why she
shouldn't and IL inclined TO contest the
claim of the Augu sta people.
Lleweliyn Barton, having resigned
from the treasuryship Of the committee,
new psan must be chosen for that.
Among the names mentioned In connsc-
tion with the place of the Cumberland
Representative on the 90 mmfttse are
those Of Postmaster George q. SWEET Of
Portland, and william N. Pennsil OF
Brunswick.
The meeting Of the committee will be
held at the parlors of the falmouth.
Caterer CArnsy's men are In City hall
preparing Cor the banquet to be rendered
Bryan by the Maine Democratic club to-
night. The tables will be arranged In the
form of a square and present plans are
for four hundred plates. The number,
however, 10 apt to be considerably in
creased On account Of the coming OF out
of town diners, who have not signified
their intention OF being present. The
table decorations will he cut flowers and
potted plants The ball itself will not be
eu bellished to any great extent.

HATS OFF.
This is the Eaics OF Or. Hsiiock Out
In Minneapolis.

Rev. Leavitt n. Hsliook, ID. D., o
former pastor Of the wiiiiston Consregs-
tional church OF this city has inaugurated
a new reform In his Plymouth church In
Minneapolis. MINI. He had been thi nix
ing of the idea for many years and few
weeks ago he succeeded In nrousing
enough courage to announcer his plan to
the people Attending bis church. The Idea
OF the reverend gentleman was that oil
ladies should remove their hats while at
tending diviae service. He explained the
subject as preliminary to the regular
services few Sundays ago and requested
that all ladies' who we're willing TO COM
ply with the request, should take Oh tseir
mats. All Of ths ladies In the oonsrega-
ton did not pay heed to the advice Of
their pastor, although the majority Of
them assented. One lady at the oonolu-
sion of the service, took the palus to seek
out Mr.. Hsiiook and say that, while
agreeing that the move might be q wise
one, ste objected to removing her hat In
church. But evidently the mind Of this
lady changed pretty quickly for at the
evening service she appeared, carefully
removed the pins ana laid the hat beside
her on the seat. The pastor was watching
her and ss she removed her hat, broad
smile spread over his good natured ooun-
tenanoe.
At q subsequent ssrvics when q number
Of strangers were In attendance, DR.. Hall
look stepped forward and requested that
eve, ybody comply with the regulation s
that the church had established. AZ shis
there was general removal of headgesr

his congregation, he was able to lock
