600 Burglary Insurance.

Special to the Leader.
Somerset, o., July 25.-The Somerset
bank, which was raided by burglars
last March, has met with some Difficult
ty in collecting on policy of $4,000 OF
insurance against burglary. which had
been placed with the Bankers Mutual
Casualty Company of Des Moines, Iowa
The company had not been licensed by
the State department of insurance to
do business in Ohio. and hence the
trouble. Some time ago Superintend-
end Vorys received word from the bank
that the company had sent an adjuster
and would settle by the payment of the
amount of the loss $5,500 Later ad-
vices are that the company refuses to
pay, and an appeal was made to the
commissioner in the matter. AS the
company was not licensed to do bust
ness in Ohio, the bank must go to Des
Moines to sue.

COURT HOUSE.
OF Wood County Made TTstlAg Place b.
Ardent Lovers.

Bowling Green, o., July 25.-The
doors of Wood county's court house are
now doubly locked, the windows have
been battened and fitted with metallic
strips. Treasurer Mum is having a
strong steel door placed at the entrance
to his office and Sheriff Kingsbury is
cleaning up the two Remington rifles
in his office which were captured with
the zeltner murderers year or two
ago.
These apparent preparations for war
are not taken in anticipation or raid
from midnight robbers, but for various
other reasons. -.....
The commissioners have ordered the
outer doors of the court house locked
with chains and padlocks in addition
to the regular locks to keep out the
boys and girls who have been making
the temple OF justice nightly trysting
place. Outside parties have secured
duplicate keys and the chain and pad
lock scheme will be used till new locks
can be obtained.
Treasurer Mum on several occasions
recently has found the outer door to his
office open in the morning and hence
the new steel door. AS tothe windows,
they have been made more secure to
keep out dust and wind.
Sheriff Kingsbury is securing up his
guns for the reason that they like other
firearms get dirty for want Of use.
In connection with the double lock-
ing Of the doors it might be said that
recently some one on mischief bent got
into the jury room on the third floor
and turned the water on-result. a
ruined ceilino.

The two most expensive departments
in thu New York city government are
these Of education and police. The de-
partment of education costs nearly $40,
100000 a year and the department of
police nearly $12 100000. But there
are 11,700 employees of the department
Of education and 7,710 of the depart
ment OF police, and thus per man it
costs more to police the city than to
educate it's children. The average po-
lice salary is higher than the average
teachers salary.

A curious flint bowlder was recently
discovered at Lewes. in England.
There is cavity in 1t, and in this wal
found a full grown toad. Evidently the
animal crawled through hole into
this cavity when it was quite small and
was unable to get out again after it had
grown. The hole through which it en-,
tered is quite small, whereas the cavity
to which the opening led is large and
might, under ordinary circumstances
have formed comfortable home for
the toad.
