to me, and take care of the
babies. Prank c. Clark.
Heartbroken and almost fainting,
Mrs. Clark sobbed before the cor
oner's jury today and the six men
that this little note was the sole
lagacy her husband had left her and
their two babies when he leaped to
his death from their fourth floor
apartment at Forty-first street and
st. Lawrence avenue. Mrs. Clark
collapsed at the inquest and Police
man John Dunning broke down
when he told of removing the body.
The jurors were in tears.
Clark, who was a waiter, had re-
turned to their rooms in the St.
Lawrence apartment building in
despair early today. He had been
out of work four days. There was
not cent and no food in the house.
Penning the note he laid in on
the table and went where the two
children were sleeping. Robbie"
six month old, woke and cooed at
him. For several minutes he hung
over the infant, kissing him and
playing with him. He then went
to Kenneth, two wears old, and
told him to love papa" Remov-
ing his coat, Clark then slammed
the rear door leading to the porch.
He did not return and a nameless
fear caused his wife to rise and
look for him. On the porch she
saw nothing. She fastened back
and found the note on the table.
Back again on the porch, she peered
down in the darkness and saw a
black mass, relieved only by a white
nightshirt. Screaming, she de-
scended and lifted her husbands
dead body.

Socialist Trouble
In North Dakota

After having been removed by a
referendum vote as secretary trea-
surer of n. Dakata Comrade c. f.
Payne says in a circular to the
membership as follows.
Before we can take up the ques-
ton of democracy in the Socialist
party for discussion, there is another
side issue which has been forced to
the front for solution and that is
the question of compromise.
In March, seven members of
Fargo local signed nominating petit
tions for candidates who were not
Socialists or members of the Socia-
list party, for members of the Fargo
school board.
The matter was brought to the
attention of Fargo lacal at two diff
ferent meetings and the result was
that the local adopted a resolution
eXonorating the members who had
signed the petitions and the local,
as local assumed the responsibility
of such acts. The result of this.
is that Fargo local stands as the
party responsible for individual
members having given assistance to
the capitalistic candidates.
Later, however, the state execu-
tive committee has adopted and sent
out circular letter in which they
exonorate Fargo local in exonorat-
ing its seven members who had Civ
en- aid to the capitalist candidates.
1t is true that the petitions were
signed by members of Fargo local
before the local had nominated its
own candidates; but this does not
settle the question of whether
member of the Socialist party may
aid the capitalistic candidates; and
of whether a local is justified in
giving its quasi endorsement to
those capitalistic candidates by ex-
onorating the members who have
signed their petitions.
1t must never be forgotten that
the Socialist party is Of the working
class; that the tactics OF the work.

Pay For Space i'm The Paper For
Their Dead Dog

Their Dead Dog
Louisville, KY, May An
memory of Billy Hansbrough, half
column paid notice appeared this
morning in a local paper. Billy
was a dog, a mongrel. His master
and mistress were Capt. and Mrs.
William Y. Hansbrough, of TAO 5th
street One hundred and twenty
four lines of nonpareil type are de-
voted to the sad tale of Billy's
career of how, when pup, he was
picked up on the street in Paducah,
KY, by his master; how in time
master and mistress forgot that he
was a brown-eyed, sweet-faced dog,
and become their little child and
sunbeam. The suddenness of
Billy's death, the memorial" says,
has left desolation in its path"
Capt. and Mrs. Hansbrough tell
how, after Billy had been stricken
with stomach trouble, Sunday,
April 10, they sat up all that night
and kept warm hannels to his little
cold body. When morning came
he seemed better, and took his usual
little walk with his master, came
back and had his little feet bathed,
and then got up in his chair at the
table"
The notice thus tells the story:
After loving greeting to master
and mistress, he went through all
the rooms of his happy home, where
his toys and playthings were, then
got up on his little bed, and they
gave him his rag doll. But prayers
could not save his precious life."
The memorial concludes with a
description of the ride to the Gene
terry, and while little bird in a
tree above them was singing, they
laid their darling to rest in the
family graveyard, in space between
| that which was reserved for his
master and mistress, and as they
turned from that little grave they
knew it would be their only com
fort while they lived"
Wonder how Capt. and Mrs.
Hansbrough made their money
Perhaps they own some factory OF
cotton mill where little children had
to work 10 or IL hours a day foi
so cents a day.
Oh, these good, Drowned d-eyed,
sweet-faced little dogs How
sweet they are in comparison with
the cheap forms of human flesh
known as workingmen's childrenl
Socialism proposes to change this
modern social system that produces
sweet-faced dogs and ugly-faced
human beings.

The National Tribune. q short history
Of the 140th n. Y.-J. T. Everts, ST.
Johns Mich.
The 140th n. Y, also called the Mon
roe County Regiment and the Roches-
ter Race Horses, was organized at
Rochester for three years, Sept. IS,
1862, with Patrick III. O'Rorke, Of the
Regular Army, as Colonel It left the
State Sept. 10, 1862, and after some
service In the defenses of Washington
IL was assigned to the Third Brigade,
Third Division, Fifth Corps. In 1863
the three years men of the 18th N Y.
were consolidated with it, and in 1854
the members of the 44th N. Y were
transferred to 1t. The 140th N. Y. was
fighting regiment, and out Of its total
enrolment of 1,707 1T lost 149 killed
and 10 who died from disease, acct
dents. ETC., of whom ~ died In Confed-
crate prisons. Col. O'Rorke was killed
at Gettysburg while leading the regi-
ment into action on Little Round Top,
and was succeeded by Col George
Ryan, also of the Regular Army, who
was killed at Spotsylvania. He was
succeeded by Col Elwell s. Otis, who
was brevetted Brigadier-General, and
Lieut-Col. William S. Gruntsynn, who
was in command when the regiment
was mustered out June 3, 1865.-Edi-

EXPENSES OF INSURANCE..

The Investigations into the insurance
business are giving the people a very
great deal. but none too much, educa-
ton upon the important question Of in
surance. In the testimony Of John r.
Hegeman. President OF the Metropoli-
tan Life Insurance Company, It deyel-
ops that the smaller companies are
managed much more safely and eco
nomically than the larger ones. In his
own company and in the New York and
Equitable Companies the ratio OF ex-
pense to the total income for 1904 was
20 per cent, while I'm the smaller COM
panies the ratio ran down as low as 13
or IA per cent. The ratio OF expense
to the amount paid policy-holders of
liis company was 10 per cent, with the
same for the New York Life and 43 Der
cent for the Equitable. while in some
OF the smaller companies It was as low
as 20 per cent and 80 per cent. The
business seems to be exceedingly prof
liable for those who are managing Il.
In 1887 the Metropolitan Company had
a surplus Of sS63.392. while ut the end
OF 1904 1t was 314,s35,741, and the pre-
miums had increased I'm the same time
from $5.618.767 to $50.80S.924. In 1904
the Metropolitan made $3.031,925, from
the habit Of policy-hoiders OF surren-
dering their policies after they have run
a year. This was particularly true OF
industrial policies.
