| = do you belong to the Harrison
Mutual Burial Association?
No.
I,,s Well why don't you?
=: Because I don't know anything
about it..
:; Well sir, do,you know you can get a
membership in this Association for
ten cents, which guarantees hundred
dollars to you. You can take It out
for the whole family, and it will only
cost ten cents for a certificate for
adults, and five cents for children
under ten.
You only pay twelve cents when
there is a death. Children are not
assessed, but receive a fifty dollar
funeral. You pay an assessment of
six cents for childrens' deaths.
How can this be done?
Simply because there are over a
thousand members of the Association.
and each member pays ten cents, max
ing the hundred dollars. The other
two cents are for the paper and enve-
lope and stamp used to notify you.
This is not graft. No one is paid
a salary. No monthly assessment.
The death rate, according to the
life insurance companies, ranges from
seven to twelve in thousand, a year
so you see you could live seventy
years. yet, and never pay out the
amount. .
This Association is established by
us,in every large town in the country.
We are acting under the laws of the
United States. We place, them only
In, the hands of those who can afford
to pay for starting them, and keeping
them going. Who are pushers.
This is just the Association that
everyone, rich and poor, should be-
long to.
We established this association
in Great Bend and Barton County,
with headquarters at the E. r. Moses
Mercantile Co. Already themember-
ship numbers over eleven hundred,
and we will have two thousand In the
next week or so.
An assessment is made at each
death, and if there is any money over,
it will go on the next death, without
another assessment. Remember it
only costs you ten cents to join, and
five cents for children. Get GER
tificate at once, it insures you hund-
red dollar burial.
Apply to us while VS. are here. or
to the E. r. Moses Nero. Co., Great

Berlin, March 3O.-The depart
Ere of three hundred troops, for
the Southwest African country,
which was made today, was the
scene and the occasion of very
serious riotipg, which. aroused
1.-The curiosity and suspicion of the
German officials. At times the
.riotipg was almost beyond the
Control of the civil authorities.
A crowd of at least a thousand
persons gathered and molested
the soldiers on the street. The
police charged the rioters, with
drawn swords, which made them
scatter, only. to reassemble at
the railway station where they
tore down the barriers, NAL
treated the railway officials tore
up the track and caused much
general confusion. The police
finally gained the upper hand
but the affair has caused a most
serious apprehension, and indi
Gates a widespread discomfort
among the people.

NEW YORK IN DOUBT.
Hot Contest On In That State Today
Result Still Uncertain. -

New York, March 31st.-The DEM
ocratic primaries and county conven-
tons now being held throughout the
state, reveal several phases which are
surprises to uninitiated. The votes
show that in the counties where the
democratic vote is the strongest, the
caueuses and conventions are against
Hill. Where the republican vote is
heaviest the primaries seem to be in
favor of Hill, owing to the apathy of
the democrats residing in these dis
tricts. The democrats outside of
New York city have declared against
Hill. 40 counties have held their
primaries and conventions so far in
the state, and of the total of 655, 1893
votes cast at the last state election,
these counties carried 251, 500, or
less than one-third of the total. These
figures are remarkably significant as
showing the weakness of Hill among
the democratic voters. The most
bitter antagonism has been shown
against the machine, by the demo
Gratis throughout the. country districts,
and many democrats who formerly
were favorable to Parker, Hills man,
have swung around to Hearst. 1t is
now a bitter fight against these two.
Many of the conventions held were
snap conventions, and all sorts of
trickery was resorted to by the ma
chine men to gain their point. In
one particular county the Hill heelers
were in control, and as the voters
came into the meeting they were
counted. AS soon as the Hill men
had enough to hold a meeting they
proceeded to business and declared
the polls closed, carrying the precinct
by two votes, leaving eight anti Hill
men just outside the door. In Ma
CARA county the feeling is very bitter.
Hill's men carried this district by a
majority of three, and a bitter con
test Will be made for recognition OF
the opposing factions. There are
numerous contests in other parts of
the state, and the indications are
that=the coming state convention will
be one of the liveliest held in Yeas.

article in. which it favors# an
Anglo-SaXon alliance. They
contend that England. is less
dangerous to Russia than is
America, and winds up the
article in the following sentence:

robbed Spain of her colonies,

tion of making the. Pacific an

MISSISSIPPI NEWS MATTERS
Brief Chronicle Of All Important Happenings
Progressive jackson.

Every Mississippian is interested
more or less in the Capital City of
the state, Jackson. For too many
years have they been ashamed to
point it out to strangers as the seat
Of government. Jackson was not pro-
gressive and Jagged behind in the
race for state supremacy. But con-
ditions are fast changing. Jackson
has awakened from her nap and is
doing things that will be a source of
pride to every loyal citizen of the
grand old commonwealth. Wonder
full improvements have been made in
the past few years. Magnificent
buildings have gone up and others are
under way. Countless residences of a
more or less pretentious type adorn
her thoroughfares. The manufaotur-
ing interests have several times dou-
bled and it is only the beginning. The
population has jumped from 5000 in
1900 to $4,000 at present with several
populous suburbs not included. In
dustries representing half a million
dollars were begun in one day recent
ly and more than that much more cap
ital is knocking at the door today.
The Board of Trade has organized on
a business basis and will make an en-
thusiastic, energetic and persistent
campaign for a "Greater Jackson. "
The good people of Mississippi will
never again have cause to be ashamed
of their Capital city.

CHAMP cLARK's CHALLENGE.
Says he will Cut Throat of Man Who
Called Him a Liar.

New Albany, Ind.-"If the man
who just called me liar will meet
me outside of the park when l finish
my speech, I'll cut his throat from
ear to ear" declared Congressman
Champ Clark of Missouri during a
Joint political debate with Congress
man Charles B. Lands of Indiana, be-
fore the Chautauqua assembly there.
The debate was the principal attrac-
+tion of the Chautauqua. During the
speech of Mr.. Lands some one in the
audience shouted:
"Where's Bill Taylorq"
Mr.. Landis replied:
"He is in indianapolis and will
stay there until he gets justice.
When Mr.. Clark took the platform
he referred to ex-Gov. Taylor as an
assassin, charging the republicans
we're protecting man who should
be hanged. Continuing he said:
"The republicans want to rule this
country by sensation" Some one in
the audience cried out: That's not
true; you are liar. /"
Congressman Clark shouted his
challenge, which was greeted with
Kisses. When quiet had been restor-
ed Mr.. Clark concluded his speech.
