the scene of the tragedy, when the
shooting occurred.

it. We hope in the future to

an accommodation which every

Nothing is 80 good a criterion
of the prosperity of community
as the amount of business done
by life insurance companies in
that community. When other
business is good and people are
prosperous then the life insurance
companies can do good business.
When business is dull and people
hard up for money the business of
the life insurance companies is
small. According to this stand
ard the people of this vicinity are
in prosperous condition tinan-
cially. During the last two
months a large amount of life in
surance has been purchased by
our citizens. The local fraternal
associations have received large
increase in membership, and be-
sides life insurance agents of 9th
or companies have done a good
business.

STOLE DOUBLE EAGLES.
the Government Ciew to His
Identity as the Thief.

Behind the widely-published news
paragraph announcing the capture in
Chicago Of a clerk who had robbed the
subtreasury there of $1,000, there is n
little story with n moral, II anyone
hunts for IT,
When the theft was first discovered
Chief Wilkic. of the secret service, de
tailed Capt Thomas |, Porter, of the
detective Office, to investigate IL. The
$4,000 stolen was the contents of bag
Of 500 gold pieces and Capt, Porter hit
upon the idea of visiting the Chicago
poolrooms and learning whether any
one was playing there with a suspicious
supply of double eagles. He found one
establishment whose frequenters Cos
siped freely about a man known TO
them only by nickname, "The Mys-
terry" All that he had ever said about
himself was that he was employed in
one of the suburbs of the city. but il
had been noticed that he never turned
up till little after four in the after
noon, when he would play the races
with $50 gold pieces until six and then
would leave the city by one of the
suburban railroad lines.
Having obtained description Of
THE Mystery" Capt Porter trans
ferred his field of observation TO the
subtreasury where he was not long
in making the features fit young man
named Wallace, whom he thenceforth
Swallowed for awhile; and Wallace,
when finally touched on the shoulder
by the captain and informed that he
was wanted promptly threw up his
hands and made candid confession.
II seems that he began his career Of
crime in the usual way, by stealing
two double eagles, which he gambled
away, making good this loss a little
later from his salary. He then helped
himself to 500, and if this second VEN
ture had gone against him he might
have been saved OF further offending.
But unfortunately he played TO good
luck that day and made winnings so
handsome as to encourage the idea that
all he had 10 DO was TO keep at his tricks
long enough and his success was sure.
He restored the 500 and when the rest
of the money was spent he stole $500
more, which he lost. Evidently with
a notion that he had been doing things
on too small a scale TO stand a long
run, he made his next haul take the
form of $1,000 bag, from which he
replaced the $500 and then proceeded
TO gamble away the surplus.
by the time the detective took him
in charge the last penny Of his $4,000
was gone As he was bonded by one
of the indemnity companies for $500,

which is entirely prohibitive?
Until we can have protection in the
