Two More Brothers Gone.

Chas. Curran, member of
Storey Lodge No. 3, Virginia City,
died in Hawthorne on Monday
morning of this week. He former
ly resided in Bodie. He leaves
two children, Horace and Mabel,
who reside with their mother, now
Mrs. ]. Baumann, in San Francisco.
Mr.. Baumann was here Tuesday
to see about making arrangements
for bringing the remains to Virginia
for burial. Mrs. Baumann went
on to Hawthorne.
Tom O'Donnell, a member of
Storey Lodge No. 3, died at his
home in Gold Hill last Monday
afternoon. He had been working
in the Sutro Tunnel, and last Fri
day was taken with pneumonia.
He was taken to his home in Gold
Hill last Saturday, but medical aid
could not save him. O'Donnell
was a young member of the Order.
He was but "a years of age, and
had been a member of Storey
Lodge but six weeks at the time of
his death. He had only paid two
assessments.

Which Is Best.

Figures recently compiled by
the Insurance Economist shows
that out of 822 old line insurance
companies that have been charter
ed in the various States of the
Union, only 48 are still in exist
ence and actively engaged in busi-
ness. Pennsylvania, the native
State of the A. o. U. W., has had
the largest number of these in
stitutions, an even hundred hav-
ing been chartered in that State,
of which only three are now in
existence. Nebraska has charter
ed two such companies, but
neither are alive to-day. With
this record staring one in the face,
is it any wonder that people are
deserting the old liners and turn
ing their attention to the fra
ternals? Not one of the reliable
fraternal societies has ceased do
ing business, nor have they ever
defrauded any person out OF a
lust claim or refused to pay loss.
Because the protection offered by
the A. O. u. w. and kindred as
sociations is cheap is not an in
dication that is unsafe and un
reliable. The principles under
lying the two classes of protection
are vastly different-one is con
Quoted to see how much the pro-
moters can make out of it, while
with the other the spirit OF fra
ternity prevails through all its
dealings with its members, and
the ambition of its officers is to see
not how much but how little
money each must contribute to
keep it on a sound and substantial
basis.-NebyaSka Workman.

either as a result of disease, aCc1-
dent, or old age, as defined by
statute, is not entitled to do busi-
ness in this State as fraternal in
surance company.
Many members of the A. 0. U.
W., knowing of these additional
features in other societies general
ly through membership therein
honestly believe that our fraternity
could be improved by taking up
these other duties. But we believe
life insurance, such as the trater-
mites give, is broad enough field
without adding anything else. 1t
will be found to be sufficiently ex-
pensive for the majority of our
members without adding other
things which will surely increase
the cost. If we undertake to do
more, we may make it impossible
to do that one thing. Life insur-
ance, or protection to the home, is
the most important thing Let us
stick to that, and do it properly
If we run after too many new in
ventions we may run up against
such rulings as that in Nebraska

"A Penny Saved Is a Penny Earned"

Economy is the lesson taught by
this saying. 1t is true economy to
take Hoods Sarsaparilla, at this
season because it purifes, enriches
and vitalizes the blood and thus
prevents sickness and puts the
whole system in a state of health
for the coming season. Every bottle
of Hoods Sarsaparilla contains 100
doses positive proof that it is econ
omy to take only Hoods.
Constipation is cured by Hoods
Pills. 25c,

Love and Life Insurance.

A Catholic priest of Milwaukee,
Rev. Father Harrison, in an able
sermon on life insurance, gives this
advice as a prerequisite to mar
rage, II would advise young
ladies to demand of any young man,
as the first introduction to her
friend, policy of at least $1,000
written on his life. In this | am
perfectly serious. His life insur-
ance policy and marriage certificate
should both adorn the prellmlna-
ries to the wedding breakfast" "
The wisdom of this sentiment is
admirable, and the pity is that love
is often so blind to the future. In
surance upon her husbands life
may be repellant to many young
wife-yes, in cases within our per
sonal knowledge, we know it to
be so-but, really, nothing can be
sillier. True, it is generally in the
very earliest period of her married
life that such a notion obtains, but,
on the other hand, there are in
stances where a wife's opposition
to life insurance continues long
after the lovey-dovy days of the
honeymoon.
The Milwaukee divine, evident
ly knowing the feminine mind, ad-
vises life policy even before the
wedding bells have pealed, and
there is food for thought in his
suggestion. Why not? No man
should have the right to take a
young woman away from a lucra-
tive situation as wage-earner, and
bv the very act of marriage make
her dependent upon his own earn
ings, unless he be willing to pro-
tect her future and the welfare of
her offspring. In ninety-nine
cases out of every hundred, the
only way he can do Is through
life insurance. He may talk about
his strong right arm, and insist
that the world owes him a living,
which is all very well in its way,
since it is the way of a lover max
ing his first venture into matri-
mony-but poor, foolish man, to-
morrow his soul may be required
of him. 1t would be better if the
insurance contract were ante

Stick TO One IhlnQ.

The A. O. U. w. promises, be-
sides the fraternity of the Lodge
(Which consists in mutual associa-
ton and help, social advantages
and care for the sick) but one thing,
and does that one thing well. That
one thing is a protection for the
home, or limited life insurance,
amounting to 1000 or $4,000, as
the member may choose. This linn
tied promise is one that is kept
with certainty, and at small ex-
pense.
But there are new societies
springing up which add other
promises to this, with view of
making their plans more attractive.
Among the additional promises
made are total or partial disability
payments, endowment, and sur
render values, stated sick benefits,
and stated assistance when out OF
employment.
1t should be understood that
every added obligation means an
added cost, and in consequence ad-
ditional doubt of stability, Besides,
these additional promises create a
complexity of management that
often leads into difficulty, and some
times run counter to State laws.
AS an instance of this we note the
following recent ruling by the de-
partment of insurance in Nebraska;
A fraternal company which by
its bylaws provides for an endow-
ment or surrender value payable
to the insured before his death, ex-
cent in case of sickness, temporary
or permanent physical disability,
