Walter Damrosch once related an
amusing experience that befell him in
Orange. The musical director took up
on himself the task of training n cho-

Mendelssolin's Elijah" and had reach

"Hear us, Baal; hear us. mighty

out sonorously. when Damrosch cried

way Not that dreadful howl! Don't
say 'E-a-a-l' Soften little Give n
more musical sound to the words. Say
.Bawl.'"
"Whereupon." he says. ";lie Orange

"'Hear us Bawl! Hear lis Bawl!
Hear us. mighty god!'
"rhey quickly realized the peculiar
fitness of the sentiment and broke
down in laughter"

ODD INSURANCE SCHEMES.
Novel Risks Granted by Up to Date
English Companies.

1t was stated recently as fact of
now possible To insure for the coutil-
gency of being tho father OF twins.
And so it is. You can also insure pro-
spectivc triplets. Eut that is o small
matter compared TO the queer risks in
surance companies are taking every
day. Anything, from The vcissitudes
of playing fast bowler On Il kicking
wicket to the chance of an heir chang
ing his religious tenets. is now a sub
ject for an insurance policy
1--WE insure people against the possi-
bility of any calamity. whatever it may
be-" said Mr.. Armstrong of the Ocean
Accident Insurance company to Mail
representative.
Frequently we are asked to insure
against man changing his name. Say
somebody leaves a property to John
Smith on condition that he takes the
name and style OF Howard Montma-
rency Nandcleur. he wants to borrow
money on his property. The lender de-
clincs to advance the money on the
ground that he has no guarantee that
Vandelcur won't return TO being call
cd Smith. We insure the lender
against that contingency, and Nande-
leur (nee SMITH gets his money.
"Anothcr type of case is an insurance
against the discovery of Il missing man.
A prodigal son leaves home for his
country's good. and nobody knows
where lie is. His father, years later,
leaves his property to be divided equal
ly among his children. The trustee of
the will finds himself in q difficulty.
The prodigal may return from his
husks, and then the other heirs will
have had more than their share. We
insure the trustee against the prodi-
gals return.
Not long ago we insured mort
gagee against the mortgageor's marry
ing outside the faith, because such a
marriage would have cost the mort
gageor his property. y.'-London Mail.

raE DESTRUCTIVE STORM.

On Tuesday afternoon a destructive
cyclonic storm;visited North Mississippi
Western Tennessee, and portions of
Arkansas, leaving death and destruc-
tion in its path. Grenada lay just out
side OF the southern edge OF the storm,
and while we feel for the afflicted
communities we can but give thanks
that we escaped. Batesville received
a hard twist but no lives were lost.
The nearest point 10 Grenada to be
badly devastated "a Arkabutla, in
Tate county. Nearly all the houses
were swept from the earth and ten
lives were lost.
An cou OF the storm will be
found on the first and last pages OF this
issue of the SENTINEL. AS later re-
ports come in from isolated country
districts the horror grows, and it will
be several days before the Hull details
| will be known.
