Did 1t Ever Occur
to YOU

That it would be poor busi-
ness policy, and in fact exceedingly
dangerous, for me to make the uncon-
ditional claim from week to week IN
these columns that the Mutual Benefit
Life Insurance Company of Newark, N.
j., was absolutely the BEST life IN
surance company in the world and is
sued the BEST policy for the insured,
unless knew beyond a shadow OF
doubt that the statement was literally
true and could be proven to the entire
satisfaction of any individual who is
hunting for the BEST and will be con-
vinced only by proven facts? Only last
week I was offered contract with
company that is recognized as being
as good as any except the Mutual Ben
eft, at much better compensation.
When l declined the representative
said: We would be mighty glad to
have you with us, and I don't see why
you decline to do so If you are in the
business for the money you can get out
Of it, My reply was: While need
money and your commission is larger,
still know that your company has not
done as much for it's policy holders
and never will and does not issue as
liberal contracts and at as low cost as
the Mutual Benefit, and it Is my hope
that eventually all intelligent people
will appreciate the fact that my claim
that l represent the BEST company
and sell the BEST policy is absolutely
true, and when they do 1 will do the
business. His reply was: "Of course
all people who are posted know that
the Mutual Benefit is the BEST COM
pany for the insured. and for that rea-
son is not the best for the agent"
Look before you leap!

From an ordinary contest Of words, the

Within a few minutes every able
bodied man was in the midst of the
bowling crowd. The wahines saw their
kanes getting worsted, so took a hand
as peacemakers. The only heritage
that the peace makers seemed to get
consisted of some blows and smashes
from the excited contestants. Finally
order was restored. A hasty glance
at the crowd showed that almost every
man had received a black eye and every
woman had had her face scratched and
her holollu torn. After peace was res
tored the attack was renewed on the
gin bottles and the festivities continued
until late in the night.

ARTHUR SEWALL
IS REPORTED
SUGAR VESSEL ARRIVES OFF DE-
LAWARE BREAKWATER LAST
SUNDAY FROM HONOLULU.

A special dispatch to the Marine EX-
change today announced the arrival of
the ship Arthur Sewall on November s
at Delaware Breakwater. She was
out 13l days from Honolulu. The ar
rival OF the vessel had been expected.
She left Honolulu June 80 and as, she
always makes good passages, it was
thought Sc would make this trip in
fair time. One hundred and thirty
one days is only an average passage
| from Honolulu to Delaware Breakwa-
ter
The vessel beat the time of the ship
Fort George. The latter vessel ar
rived at Delaware Breakwater NOvem-
Der 3, 143 day from Honolulu. The
Arthur SeWall sailed from Honolulu
June 80 SO made the trip in 13l days
thus beating the time Of the Fort
George by y days. The Captains Of
the two boats had a bet as to which
vessel would make the best passage.
Captain Jeffrey of the Sewall has Won
The Sewall had 5000 tons of sugar of
which 1912 tons were from Castle and
Cooke and 1888 tons from c. Brewer
and Company. The quotation on sugar
that day was probably S.SS cents a
pound. That quotation was the last
that has been received so there has
probably been no change up to date.
With the quotation of 3.SS, sugar was
worth $3.50 a ton! The cargo of the
Arthur Sewall was therefore, worth
$3SS, 600

The weather was perfect, no wind was
blowing and the turning of the vessel
was accomplished without the slightest

neat a piece of work of the kind wit
messed in the harbor.
AS the vessel steamed down the
channel, out to sea, she was saluted by
a chorus of farewell whistles from the

that vicinity of the harbor to which
the Sheridan responded with a croaky

Before Judge Townsend yesterday
in chambers the question as TO the
time Of selling the Tishomingo Oil
and Cotton company plant was argued.
The complainants wanted to sell the
property right away and at whatever
price il would bring.
One reason for this, me com
plainants say, was because as the
thing stands they can get no insur'
ance on the property. The attorneys
for the receiver OF the Bank OF the
Chickasaw Nation who are in
tcrested In the sale of the prop
erty desire that the sale OF the prop
crty should be postponed until next
