Mr.. Kemp may be all the advance

fact together with the number OF

Nearly 100 Stockholders Of the Farmers Mutual Fire Insur
ance Company of this County Meet in Annual
S Session and Elect Officers.
Gratifying Report Made by Secreary-Proposal to Drop the
Assessment Plan Rejected Next Annual Meet
ing to be Held at Wabasso.

The annual meeting Of the stock
holders of the Redwood Falls Farm
ers' Mutual Fire Insurance Co. of
Redwood Falls township was held
at the court house last Saturday
afternoon. There was a larger at
tendance at this meeting, and more
ginger manifested than at any other
meeting ever held by the company,
the stockholders from around Wa
basso, particularly south of the
town, having driven over in the
cold for the purpose of bringing
the next annual meeting to that
rustling little town. They accomp-
lished their purpose, and later on
when it came to the question of a
depository for the company's funds,
two Of the directors on the board
put up a game fight for the new
bank at Wabasso.
The meeting was called to order
at l 30 o'clock by President Steele.
Fifty members were present, aud
afterwards this number was in
creased to 100. The minutes of the
last meeting were read and APP
proved, and then came the report of
the secretary and treasurer, A. D..
Stewart, which had the approval Of
the directors attached to it. It was
adopted, and is published in this
issue. Before the adoption T. l..
Gilbert congratulated the company
on the big balance and Neil Mckay
likewise offered congratulations.
The recommendation of the di-
|rectory that adequate insurance

provisions be made for blooded
stock was taken up, the board rec
ommending that registered cattle
be insured at two-thirds of their
value not to exceed 800, and that
registered horses be likewise in
sured at two thirds of their value,
not to exceed $500, the registry GER
tificate being required in all cases.
w. A. Hartwick tried to get the
amounts reduced to $500 and $75,
and in this he was backed up by A.
M. Stewart and 2. o. Callaghan,
the latter claiming to have knowl-
edge of estopped animals having
been sold at from $40 to $50, but
the original figures were adopted
by vote of % to 2, a large number
of the members not voting.
Secretary Stewart then brought
before the meeting the question of
amending the bylaws at the next
annual meeting. It appears that at
this time stockholders having 81, 900
worth of livestock are carrying only
from 800 to 5000 insurance, and
that when an animal from the bunch
is killed by fire or lightning the by
laws provide that the company pay
two-thlrds Of the value of the ami
NAL to the owner. Mr.. Stewart
strongly suggested revision
whereby the insured be compelled
to insure the whole herd, or the
loss be pro rated. In this he was
backed up by Martin Bredvold,
who said that the company was TAX
ling the entire risk, while it was
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1904-01-06

getting an assessment on only a
part. Discussion was then deferred
until the next annual meeting.
While the secretary's proposition
to drop the assessment plan was to
have been discussed, so much oppo-
sition was developed that Mr..
Stewart gave up the idea. He con.
tended, however, that the only
valid objection he had heard to il
was that it would act as a hardship
in making the payment. This might
be alleviated by having the pay
ments made in Ave installments.
He insisted that the assessment
plan was expensive and awkward,
and that the other proposition was
a money saver. T. l.. Gilbert
thought that if the membership was
educated 10 making the payments it
would be good thing, while Rob-
ert Nilsen of Brookville, who OPP
posed the first plan of Mr.. Stewart
liked the installment proposition.
Martin Bredvold opposed either
suggestion and insisted on sticking
to the assessment plan. The mat
ter was dropped at this point.
The election of seven directors
followed, John Whittet, w. A..
Hartwick and Neil Mckay being
chosen as tellers. A number of
nominations were made, but when
the ballot was finally counted it was
announced that G. B. Root of Sher-
man, A. D. Stewart of Redwood

Mission Medical Work.

During the ninetY-four years of its
existence the American Board has COM
missioned 137 physicians; thirty eight
of these physicians were ordained men,
and twenty of them were women. At
the present time fifteen of our twenty
missions have one or more physicians
on their staff, numbering in all forty,
of whom twelve are also ordained men
and twelve are women. By the latest
enumeration there were connected with
these several missions of the board
forty-two dispensaries and twenty-nine
hospitals, as follows: In Turkey, eight
dispensaries, six hospitals; in India and
Ceylon, sixteen dispensaries and eleven
hospitals; in China, ten dispensaries
and eight hospitals; in Africa, seven
dispensaries and three hospitals. and in
Japan, one dispensary and a mission
ary physician in one hospital. By the
last report there were little over 25O,
600 patients treated the previous year
in these various institutions. This med
ical work is perhaps more nearly self
supporting than any branch of the mis-
sionary enterprise. For although the
poor are treated in multitudes of cases
without any charge, yet in other cases
those who are able to make payment
either in the form of a fee. or Of a gift
out of gratitude for the good they have
received. Many of these hospitals are
entirely self-supporting. and some of
them, like the one in Madura City,
have been furnished with good build
ings by the free offerings of natives.
ONLY few of whom have as vet pro-
fessed the Christian faith. The total
cost of this medical branch of the mis-
sionary service to the American Board.
aside from the salaries of the American
physicians who are In charge, has been
not far from $4,000 a year.-American

Best Tests for Diamonds.

This is an age of limitations, particu-
larly of gems, and the amount Of imi-
tation precious stones on the market
is enormous" I am told by w. A. Gin,
the welf-known jeweler, land the as
sertion is continually made by dealers
in these commodities that it would re-
quire the services of an expert to de-
termine the real from the false. With
regard to diamonds, the belief is gen.
eral that this is entirely true, but never
did the general public entertain a
greater error.
There are certain simple tests ia
which any one may submit a stone
alleged to be a genuine diamond and
determine almost instantly the truth
or falsity of the claim made for it. A
real diamond will not be acted on by
acids or aIkalis in the least, and may
be placed in a liquid containing these
substances without injury to it. There
are other simpler and easier tests
however, which require nothing in the
way of testing materials that a person
cannot find in any household without
the need of visit to the druggist
These, too, are practically infaIIible
for 1 have never heard of an imitation
that would answer fully to them.
I'm the first just take a small piece
of silk and rub the alleged diamond
vigorously for a moment, and it viii
acquire sufficient amount of positive
electricity to attract bits of wool, cot
ton or paper, exactly as a magnet will
attract particles of metal.

FIogged Englmd'S Printate.

An amusing reminiscence of a fog
ging he once gave the Archbishop of
Canterbury was recalled by the Rev.
Canon Bury, rector of Harleston, at
Northampton, yesterday. Commencing
a recent speech of the Primate on
missionary work, he incidentally OBJ
served that he was at school with the
Archbishop. Randall Davidson was one
of the pupils of his (Canon Bury's)
father, and he could not recall that the
future Archbishop was remarkable
for anything save his inordinate
impudence. Though himself con-
spicuous for his exceptional for
bearance, on one occasion young
Davidson provoked him beyond all pa
tience, and he therefore turned on him
and gave him a very severe thrashing.
The future Archbishop did not take IL
lying down." On the contrary, he at
once complained, and so got him into
trouble, and, not content with that, he
complained to his own parents, and got
Canon Bury's father into trouble
Thus it was that their mutual remini-
SCIENCES were not altogether pleasing.
But Canon Bury firmly believed-if he
were an Archbishop he would say he
was profoundly convinced-that the
thrashing did the Archbishop a power
of good. 1t was the foundation of the
character he afterward displayed of
tact and caution and reverence for
his superiors which had led in a great
measure to his elevation to the prim-
acy.-London Telegraph.

BEAUTY AND BRAINS.

A RECENT report from Chicago says that hun
~ dreds of applicants for positions teachers in
the public schools in that city engaged in a
frantic struggle either put flesh work it off
to fit themselves for beauty test. The report
goes on to say "a rule of Board Education
applicants shall satisfy the medical examiners that they
of proper size height and weight and the
that candidates will be graded according their
physical development has led to the tissue building
struggle
appears the trouble originated in report from the
"Child Study Laboratory" that experimental investiga
ton and research have demonstrated that mentality and
physical beauty closely related; of au-
thorites puts it. The healthy develops symmetr

At the time the rule announced there upward

examination Naturally enough springng of the rule
caused huter and splutter Some of the applicants
are said be "scrawny" and others are said to be
"fat and they have but little time fit themselves
for the test OF comeiness they have and all
work vigorously class eating patent breakfast
foods and the other doing overtime in massage rooms
and sweat baths
Out of the agated and agitang discussion resulting
from the rule learn that UP this time the Chi
Board OF Education has had accept teachers OF
low grade OF beauty because there were not enough
beautiful to fill all vacancies With the present
large numbers of applicants however, believed the
board FIJI the schools with teachers one of whom
will fall below the second of the three grades of physical
perfection into which they to be classified 1t is
quite probable the rule will work some benefit for Chi
and that in the of few years the higher
beauty grade of school teachers in that city may ap
proxmate the average standard teachers in San Fran
CISCO and if the enterprsng authorities of the Child
Study Laboratory will deserve vote of thanks from the
community.
