What the Bishop Said
New York Mail and Express)

(New York Mail and Express.)
The. Episcopal cleric now in New
York attending the services incident
TO the observance of. Advent yesterday
added another to the many stories told
Of that kindly man. the late Bishop
Williams: who. prior to his death in
Middletown, Conn, year ago, was
accorded the unwritten title of PreIate
of America of the Protestant Episcopal
church.
Bishop Williams, whose charities
were as well known as his humor,
loved a good dinner and was not
averse to a bottle of good wine for
his stomaeh's sake as an acc0mpani-
ment,'' said the clergyman.
"On one occasion he was invited by
a friend of similar tastes to go on a
fishing trip. A single bottle of gen
erOus size was added to the luncheon
hamper by the host The clouds which
covered the sky when the little fish
ing boat started were dispelIed by the
sun, which shone hotter and more hot
by the time the fishing grounds were
reached.
THE bottle Of wine, attached TO a
cord knotted about its neck, was sus-
pended overheard in the water to cool.
well knows. water is a great lOosener
of knots
Luncheon time found a very thirsty
bishop anticipating the cooling
draughts from the suspended bottle.
With edibIes spread upon the small
deck the wine was sought, but the

men past her fair and fertile valleys
into the rugged mountains where ma
ture has stored her mineral bounty.
And right well were these mining pio-
neers rewarded for their perseverance,
their industry. their confidence in the
the future of the state Of their adop-
ton. Idahos mines have yielded album
dainty.
They have made many men wealthy
already and they will make more men
wealthy. The half of that story has
never been told. But Idaho's other
possibilities are now being recognized.
The state contains thousands upon
thousands of acres of rich farming
land. land that, at the touch of the
agriculturist, has brought forth a
thousandfold. Idaho's fruit alone was
worth last year well over GOO. 600, and
the fruit raising industry is still prac-
ticaily in its infancy.
Nor has the growth OF Ldaho's wealth
been confined to the farms and the
mines alone Her cities have increased
in population and in taxable property
More homes have been built than ever
before in single year and mere peo-
pie have been brought to realize the
advantages of the Gem states -four
ishing communities.
on the whole, Idaho may well look
back upon the year now ending with
pride in her achievements; she may
well look hopefully into the future. see
ing there only the smiling sky which
betokens greater good fortune yet to
come. Again The Herald, on behalf
or the people of Utah, eongratulates
Idaho upon her advancement in the
of states and prophesies for
her greater glory in the year To come

IDAHo's PROGRESS.

THE HERALD presents its compli-
ments and best wishes to Idaho.
Utah's sister state. We believe we
voice the sentiments of every citizen
of Titan when we say that the pros
perity of Idaho is very near and dear
to the people of this state. 1t is a
pleasure to speak OF Idaho. for its
record has been one of continuous and
unbroken progress. Sure and steady
has been her growth until the close
of the second year of the twentieth
century finds her well abreast of her
neighbors in most respects and ahead
OF them in some.
Time was when Idaho was looked up
on simply as a mining state. The rush
for avenues 10 speedy wealth carried

NEW INSURANCE LAW.

N INTERESTING POINT in life
insurance has just been passed on
by the supreme court of the United
States. In effect, Justice Brewer,
speaking for the court, said that when
a man commits a murder he forfeits
all rights under his life insurance pol
icy That is, when he has been con-
victed and executed, his heirs cannot
collect the sum for which his life was
insured
The case went up from Texas. A
man by the name of Burt was found
guilty of numbering his wife In due
season he was executed and his heirs
laid claim to his life insurance. The
company resisted payment and suit
was instituted. 1t was carried through
all the courts of Texas and finally
reached the highest court in the land,
with the result above stated.
Now, of course, what the supreme
court of the United States SAYS is
law There is no getting around
that fact and kicking against the pricks
is useless as well as an exhausting
employment. Still, the Judgment
doesn't seem exactly fair. The court
said that the holder of a life insurance
policy enters into an implicit, though
tacit. obligation to do nothing which
would accelerate the maturity of that
policy.
Yet time and time again men who
carried large amounts of life insurance
have killed themselves and their heirs
have recovered the money 1t is sure
" no worse, or not much worse, for
a man 10 accelerate the maturity of
policy by killing another than by kill
ing himself. Certainly in the latter
contingency the acceleration is consid-
erably more rapid. for murderers often
have a long lease of life between the
date of the commission of their crimes
and the date of their execution
AS a general rule, the decision may
be all right because, as the court sug-
gests, insurance companies are not ex-
pected to insure against crime as we'll
as against death. Still. il is easy to-
imagine case where a thoroughly in
nocent party might suffer The widow.
for instance, of the man who takes hui
man life, is surely as much entitled to
his life insurance as the widow of an
innocent man.
In any event the heirs or devisees
should be entitled to recover the
amounts paid for the life insurance.
II is manifestly unfair to charge man
for protection he does not receive.
However, the subject is one that
need not trouble many of US All
of the better class of insurance COM
panies put very liberal construction
on their policies and may be depended
upon to do the right thing

Capitalists have a right to do as they
please with their money so long as they
do not become public charges, says a
Missouri court. Wen, rather. And cap
italists are not likely to become public
charges, although there is no disputing
the fact that they are usually public
chargers.

States--only $50, 900. That would be a
large fortune for some people but it
isn't much for DR.. Lorenz. The good
he has done cannot be measured in
money, either. He has literally gone
about healing the cripples without
money and without price whenever the
circumstances warranted it. No for
eigner is entitled to a higher place in
the esteem of the American people
than this distinguished Vienna sur
geon.

with the fair to celebrate the Louis

qualities in his character which were
not known before. But his conspicuous
position and the fine style in which he
is filling it make him all object of
renewed interest and gives force to
the proposition to nominate him for
president on the democratic ticket in
1904.
The direct and intelligent methods
of Mr.. Francis, and his notable abil-
ity to grapple with practical prob
lens, not to speak of his polite

him to a political organization that

DAVID R. FRANCIS.

David R. Francis, as the leading
spirit of the st. Louis Worlds Fair,
will be invested with degree of dis
tinction which has never before come
to any person in similar position.
It was Francis who pushed the scheme
to the front and was instrumental in
causing the people of St. Louis to take
hold of it with zeal and enthusiasm,
feeling which has been followed by
great wave of municipal reform. st.
Louis, rich but apathetic commun-
lty, afflicted with bad government,
will blossom forth as an object lesson
of civic enterprise, and all this will
bring Mr.. Francis into flattering
prominence.

We are glad to hear from Mr.. Rich
ardson, and will not add to his troubles
any further by sending him more Con-
servatives. But we think he is going
at 1t in the wrong way. We suggest
that he read Hamlet's soliloquy and
see if that puts things in any different
light. Then if he still chooses to take
up arms against his sea of troubles,
instead of disseminating the Conserv-
ative let him write to Teddie direct ;
and we have no doubt that Teddie will
so amend his "sistem" as to provide
either for lower price of corn or for
the fattening of hogs without that
cereal.

Groceries on credit. their cattle and
Hogs isn't worth anything unless they
are fat and they cant afford to fatten
them at the price of corn as every Hog
they sell looses them money.
