EARNINGS.

Surplus is not ouly the measure OF
financial strength, but 1t is the only
fund from which dividends can be
paid, and the larger amount of surplus
earned the greater the dividend posi-.
bilities. During 1900 the Equitable's
surplus earnings were much larger
than those Of any other company. Not
only during 1900, but for the past
twenty years, the Equitable has led all
other companies in the amount of sur
plus earnings.
INCOME SAVED FOR INVESTMENT.
During the past ten years the Equit-
able has saved, for investment, from
Its income more than ia millions of
dollars. No other company has. dur
ing the same period, saved AZ much,
the nearest being about 10 millions
less.

A GRACEFUL RESPONSE.
Lieut.. Gov. Tillman said in
reply:
Iam grateful to you, senator's,
for the resolution you have just
adopted. When I assumed the
duties of this office it was with
many nisgivings, for never before
in my life had I held any political
Office whatsoever. If have given
you satisfaction; I nave accomplish
ed my sole desire. In years I am
young, while most of you have
passed the meridian of manhood.
In the ordinary course of human
life it will be with sadness ard
sorrow that I see many of you
pass to the great beyond, but
when years have passed away and
shades have faded into shadows
Ky mind will wander back to my
relations here and think of ''auld

prosperity attend each and every

year, and God be with you till we
meet again.

siugly and in twos and threes, and
in a few minutes the chamber was

w. p. Marden Destroys Marvel
for Kansas and the Museums.

Bangor, Me-, Feb. 16.-W. B.
Marden, of LIBERTY Waldo county,
who has been famed far and wide
as the possessor of whiskers the
like of which were never raised III
Kansas, has cut the whiskers off
and burned them in tbs kitchen
stove, partly because they were
getting to be heavy nuisance and
partly because he had become
tired ofanswering questions.
In 1898, when the whiskers were
said to measure eight feet nine
inches, a man came all the way
from Boston to offer him q good
salary if he would just 60 up to the
hA5, sit q few hours day on the
stage of a museum, aud let the
ss-ept,cal yank gently at his
whiskers to prove tLat they were
g:nulne and not glued on. Marder
declined the offer with thanks,
saying that so long as farming was
middling good i'll Waldo county,
as his pension kept on coming
regularaly he would not think OF
associating with Circasaian beau
ties, skeletons and the like.
Other museum agents came and
went. All failed in their attempt
to engage Mr.. Marden and bis
whiskers. Mr.. Mardan stayed at
home AMI worked, and sat Oh the
piazza in summer and read about
the wars and the murders and lot
the salty breezes and the meadow
airs blow through the wonderful
whiskers, which grew until, as he
walked, they swept the ground
like a hop vine hanging out The
tail of q wagon. In strange town
Marden would have a crowd at hia
heels all the time, but he seldom
cared to wander from his own cook
stove aud in the course of years
Liberty got used to him and his
beard, and even the little rude
boys got tired of calling him Whis-
kers Marien.
When Mr.. Marden worked in
hay field or III his copper shop be
would tie the whiskers up in q
knot, just as woman ties up the
skirt of her calico dress when she
mops the floor. When as some
times happened, he went to Il
dance or other social gathering,

So it was that the other day Mr..

THE LAST DAY.

When the senate convened at y
O'Clock the last bills from the
engrossing department had not
been verified a d it was 10 o'clock
before the last ratification of acts
was had.
It was stated that the delay III
the eDgrossipg department was
caused by the fact tha> the special
pension bill appropriated $15o,0OO
for pensions, while the general
appropriation bill gave only
100000 for pensions, and there
was doubt as to whether the
increase made in the special bill
would be valid.
Attorney General Bellinger was
sent for at 8 o'clock yesterday
morning and after examining both
billa stated that be would advise
the payment of the extra $5O,OoO'
as it was clearly the intention of
the legislature to make the in
crease. Acting on this advice the
work of enrolling the bill for
ratification was resumed.
It was at 10 o'clock that the last
acts were signed by the presiding
officers of the two bodies, and
then joint committee was sent
to inform the governor that the
legislature vas ready to adjourn.
The governor sent message in
reply to the effect in substance
that he had signed the appropria-
tion bill, the general supply bill
and the legislative supply DILL, aud
the legislature might adjourn
whenver it felt like it.
Mr. Hamer, the clerk of the
house, came over and announced
tLat that body had finished all its
work and was ready to adjourn.
The CLERK of the senate was then
sent to the house With similar
message.
