CONSTABLE TlNDlSH OUT OF POCKET
Found No Money When lie Presented Will
liam CnrIeY's Order

Constable William p. Windish is
not only a sadder but wiser man to-
day, but is also out of pocket S110.
Mr.. Windish accepted the order OF
William Curley, of Chester, who was
arrested and fined, in company with
Henry Reason and Daniel Stewart, for
violating the State game laws Fifty
dollars was the amount of the assess
ment levied on each man by Magis-
trate Sasse. Mr.. Windish accepted
Curley's order on a Chester savings
fund for S110, the amount of fines and
costs for himself and Stewart. The men
were allowed to depart. and when Mr..
Windish went to Chester yesterday and
presented Curleys order at the savings
fund, he found that Curley had been
there before him and withdrawn his
account Of about $500, he having for
feited all interest due on the sum de-
posted by drawing it without first
giving notice.
AS Mr.. Windish accepted the order in
lieu of the money for the fines, he
will have to pay it out Of his own
pocket.

A MOST WISE
INVESTMENT
Made by The Late Edward
RidgeIy, Of Dover,
Delaware

When a man has capital to invest
he naturally places it where he can get
the greatest interest. For him to OBJ
tain over per cent. simple interest or
nearly AZ per cent. compound interest,
for thirty-five years would be con-
sidered an exceedingly profitable in
vestment, yet this is just the kind OF
investments The Mutual Life Insurance
investments the Mutual Life Insurance
Company Of New York Is Offering
every day. The estate of the late Ed
ward Ridgley, the distinguished Dover
lawyer, is the beneficiary OF such a
wise business foresight on the part
Of Mr.. Ridgley. Back in 1865 he took
out a $4,000 policy on the ten payment
life plan.
During his lifetime he surrendered
additions amounting to S620.11, and
still the company paid at his death &c.,
AS, making a total Of S7.O9S.11, which
is more than the money invested at s
per cent simple interest would have
amounted to in the thirty-five years
that the policy was in force.
The Mutual Life issues policies in
amounts Of $500 to 81 100000 and a
holder of a $500 policy on which the
premiums may be paid monthly re-
ceives the same proportionate returns
as Mr.. Vanderbilt or Mr.. Peary. who
are insured in The Mutual Life for One
Million Dollars each.
Below is a letter received by Mr.. Fell
from Henry Ridgely. Jr, son OF
the late Edward Ridgely, in reference
to this settlement:

as containing some disclosures relat-
Ing 30 the inside history OF what went
