PERKINS IS PROUD
OF ACHIEVEMENTS
Retiring N. Y. Life Man Especial.
~ Proud Of the ''Nylic''
Organization.

New York, Dec. 1S.-The retirement |
of George w. Perkins from executive
office in the New York Life Insurance
company was marked by one of his
unique statements. Mr.. Perkins told
of his work of recognizing the COM
pany's agencies turnout the world and
Of the system established by, him Of
dealing directly with the insured, thus
securing a large volume OF permanent en-
clared. had increased the interest of
the agents in the company and i'm
proved the quality Of the business Sc
cured. He felt pride, he said, in Great
ing the organization. Mr.. Perkins
then said:
"When I entered the firm Of J. P.
Morgan & Co. it was understood be-
tween Mr.. Morgan and myself and also
understood and approved by the New
dual position should not continue.
However, my long connection with and
deep interest in the New York Life
Insurance company made me loath to
leave it, especially as came to realize
that my connection with the financial
world was of substantial value to the
policyholders Of the company; and I
believe this is demonstrated by the
statement I herewith submit as to the
operations of the finance committee
during the period Of my Craftsmanship.
"My business responsibilities. already
very great, have within the last few
days been so increased by my election
to executive positions in other compa-
mics, that ask you to accept my resig-
nation as Of this date. In taking this
step desire to testify most heartily to
the unselfish devotion, at all times, of
my associates on the finance committee
| to the policyholders' interest, and to ac-
knowledge my obligation to them for
their wisdom and counsel, without
which the results accomplished would
have been impossible.
The financial statement referred to
BY Mr.: Perkins is a report by Treasurer
| F.. H. Shipman. showing among other
| things that the New York Life five
years ago, when Mr.. Perkins became
chairman of it's finance committee, had
$3.50, 100000 in stocks and bonds; where
as it has now $212,000,000 (par} bonds,
drawing ~ per cent average interest,
which are worth at least $1OOOO,0O0
more in market, and that on Mr.. Per-
klns' transactions in bonds for the
| company, including syndicate participa-
tons. the company has made $10O19,-
| $7O2,679 on five transactions in securi-
| ties.
The trustees, in accepting Mr. Per-
kins, resignation, passed a resolution
which expresses "our high appreciation
of his long, and valuable services to the
company,'' and congratulating him on
the great opportunities, Which his
are opening to him.

IDLE OF LONDON
MARCH TO CHURCH
Army Of 5000 Unemployed Make
Spiritless Demonstration at
St. Paul's Cathedral.

London, Dec. 18-London IS unem-
at st. Paul's cathedral yesterday.
Only few hundred with banners
went in the procession from Trafalgar
square to the cathedral, where they ar
rived during the progress of the ser
vices and up the steps of which they
marched singing the HMarseillaise. -
Here the motley crowd was Joined by
contingents from other quarters, and
all to the number of some 5000 began
filing into the cathedral silently and
respectfully, making an homogeneous
picture in contract with the fashion
ably-dressed worshippers,. s+-
Such a scene has not been witnessed
at st. Paul,s since twenty years ago,
when John Burns, now president Of the
local government board, led similar
demonstration to the cathedral.
Altho the preacher made sympa-
thetic references to the problem Of the
unemployed, the men became tired long
before the servic ended and most Of
thin filed out. Some of the leaders de-
livered addresses from the steps and
the demonstration was quietly dis
persed.
General Nicholson Advanced.
One of the first official acts of the
new secretary Of war, Richard Burden
Haldane, is the appointment Of General
Sir William Nicholson as quart ermaster
general, which makes him the third
military member of the army council.

JAP TROOPS RETURN
CELEBRATED IN TOXIC

Toxic, Dec. 19.-The first official eel
ebration in honor of the return of the
Manchurian armies was held yesterday.
Field Marshal Oyama and General Ku-
roki were guests of the guards divis-
ion.
Ten thousand men of all armies in
their field uniforms, with twenty-four
guns, marched from Hibiya park to
Tyeno park, a distance of three miles,
their battered flags telling eloquently
Of the ordeals thru which each regi-
ment had passed. Great enthusiasm
was manifested.

The expenses of the celebration were
defrayed by voluntary contributions.

RAILROADS
TO INTERNATIONAL FALLS
Duluth, Rainy Lake & Winnipeg Road:
Purpose Now Seems Plain,

The name Of the Duluth, Virginia &
Rainy Lake road has been charged to
the Duluth, Rainy Lake & Winnipeg
Railroad company. No official reason
is given for the change, altho it has
been suspected for some time that the
road 70 ID, would build to the International
Northern. The company will have to
grade fifty miles and lay steel sixty-two
miles to reach Fort Frances on the Can
adam side. Inasmuch as the company
has ordered 5000 tons of steel for 1906,
its purpose seems no longer in doubt. :

IN Memoriam.

John Wesley Moser, youngest child
of Mrs. M. E. Moser, was born in Verona
Lee County. Miss, Jan. 80, 1882, and
died, after an illness of Is days, July II,
1905, in the old home made sacred by
the hallowed memories of % years, and
under the inspiration of a love which
knew no bounds
John was not free from the foibles
which beset human life, but he loved
his mother, his kindred, his home, and
the sacred memories of his boyhood life.
knew nothing of his mature man
hood, but do know that during his
boyhood days in Verona, he was always
in the home at nights, under the sweet
influences of the parental roof.
When the days work was ended, and
the evening repast finished, Johns
mother always knew where to find him,
and never did he tread upon that mothers
heart, nor cause the bitter wall to escape
her lips. 20! where is my wandering
boy to night.
He honored his widowed mother, he
loved the old home, and the kindred ties
that clustered, in loving embrace,
around the dear old hearthstone. And
there are boys, far more pretentious,
who might learn, just here, an inval-
liable lesson from this devoted son.
Honor thy father and thy mother!
and there is little hope, and less respect
for the unnatural son, who persistently
ignores this injunction. No human heart
can bleed and love like a mothers!
And here skepticism is wont to thrust
in it's poisonous shaft, and cry aloud,
with seductive accent. "Why this
poignant visitation, this cruel messen-
ger, to blight a home, upon whose sa-
cred altar, burned the passion of affec-
ton?
do not know, It's not province to
know! but ! do know that a golden thread
Of mercy runs through the whole web
of Gods administration. When the
volume of each life shall have been I'M
folded in the clear light of an eternal
ftuition, then, the complex paragraphs
will be punetured by the hand of our
Father, and every sentence, and every
word italicized by the marvellous disclos-
ures Of His love! Here is the central
link in the golden chain, which binds
a sinking universe to the throne of God
So it must be, for infinite love hath de-
vised it, and infinite wisdom hath fore
told it, and infinite power will accomplish
it.
In closing this humble tribute to the
memory of the diseased, l offer no
apology for his mistakes That he had
faults, in common with our fallen hui
manity, l %candidly admit, and the only
shadow in all this young life, is the sad
truths that such a big, generous heart
was so long in yielding to the wooings
of the spirit.
| am informed however, that he was
penitent and prayerful in his Affections,
and that he surrendered his heart to
Col and died without fear of the future.
Hence, his sorrowing loved one rest in
the hope that teey shall meet him in
the home Of the redeemed and saved.
j. I. CUNNINGHAM.
