the complainant to have an insurance

out a policy i'm the Pennsylvania COM
pany for $4,000 on a building I'm the process
OF erection which was known as the Mar
tina cottage
OF II. +. Smith 81 Son, was the agent OF
the Pennsylvania company. and he was
entrusted by the officers OF the sani-
tarium with writing the description of the
property insured. Later the company in
sured the Martha cottage for $4,000 in the
Pawtuckot Mutual company.
on Jan. 3d. 1901 the Martha cottage was
destroyed by fire and the Pawtucket COM
pany promptly paid the amount OF the
policy Issued. The Pennsylvania company
declined 10 so do, claiming its insurance
was on the main building owned by the
sanitarium company and not on the cot
tage burned.
The description In the latter company's
poli v was for n three story building of
stone, whereas the cottage was two and
half stories, one story only being of
stone. The complainant says the differ
snco rs due Go a mistake on the part OF
Mr.. Smith and that the policy should be
changed so as 60 cover tho cottage burn
cd
The Pennsylvania Life Insurance com
pany has demurred 90 the bill OF COM
plaint or the ground that no fraud is al
legged and because tho complainant has
an adequate remedy az law.

The 126th anniversary of the birth
of freedom IN the new world was cefe-
brated by our people yesterday at
Norton, Long Island and Agra. The
largest crowd went to Norton, the
number being about $50. A goodly
number attended the Agra celebration
and few went to Long Island. They
all report having enjoyed the day very
much.
The Herald is in receipt of a copy of
the Hobart okla. J News, Republican.
We notice in a write-up Of the repub-
lican county convention that n. @.
Bracken'S name was among the list of
delegates, and also that he was chosen
chairman of the committee on creden-
tialS. Newt. seems to be getting into
politics pretty deeply down there,
Notwithstanding editor Royce's very
pointed advice to school teachers to
keep out of politics. The paper also
contained the ad OF II. G. Wey & Son,
hardware merchants.
There are three republican candi-
dates for the legislature in this county
up to date. John Gray, who announces
himself for Curtis for Senator, John
Thomas, who is declared to be for
Long, and the present representative,
Evan Hebrew, who was elected two
years ago as Burton man. Strange
Phillips county republicans could not
trOt out a candidate who could stand
for something for the state and coun-
tvs good instead of being a mere fig
ure-head to boost somebody into the
United States Senate. Senators ought

Ansst,er JaiI-bird Flown.

Last Thursday mornings early
dawn showed gaping hole in Tie
county jail wall just above the grated
bars OF the west window, and it need
ed no close inspection to see that the
solitary occupant thereof bad made
his exit, and left fer more congen: al
chimes.
Two pieces of iron, one nearly as
large as crowbar were found on Tor
of the large pile of brick, stone and
mortar which lay on quilt on the
floor of the jail at the bottom of the
window. All the material had been
taken out on the inside except the
large base stone which was pushed
outward. 1t must have taken the
priSoner-two or three nights at hard
labor to accomplish the work he had
done.
There is no Indication of which way
he went and thus far nothing has
been heard of m-though dilige1t
search is being made.
The escaped prisoner is Kenneth
Wallace who was arrested on charge
of stealing team and buggy a few
weeks ago.
