MAY COMPEL RESTITUTION.
Suits Against Officers Of New York
Life Thought Likely.

A dispatch from Saranac Lake N. Y, last
night says: There is a strong probability
of suits being brought against officers Of
the New York Life Insurance Company by
Attorney General Mayer to force the resti-
tuition of policy holders of $4,000 or more
contributed to the republican campaign
funds, as admitted by George w. Perkins
before the insurance investigation commit
tee in New York last Friday.
Attorney General Mayer today refused to
either deny or admit that 1t is his intention
to bring such suits, but an intimate friend
such action was quite likely.
1.-The only knowledge have are the news
paper reports Of the testimony given by
Mr. Perkins, said the attorney general.
"My course will not be determined until l
receive an official copy of the testimony.
Then l will decide what action may be
taken In the matter"
Mr. Mayors friend, who is in q position
to know whereof he speaks, said
at Is quite true that the only knowledge
Judge Mayer has is that obtained from the
newspaper accounts, but he knows that
these reports are substantially correct.
know positively that he would not have any
more hesitancy in beginning action against
the New York Life officials than he had in
proceeding in the Equitable case There is
however, doubt in his mind whether he
could force the restitution OF the money
given for campaign purposes. The question
is whether such contributions were legal or
Illegal"

he was high in the air and his balloon was

Morrissey buffeted the storm for an hour

rapid pace toward the earth. He managed
to cut loose his parachute and eventually
fell into the Nemaha river, where he was in
danger of drowning. He managed to grasp
a tree stranded in the mud and to this he

Visitors to the yosemite.

You will be surprised to learn that there
were less than 5000 people in the Yosemite

kept spasmodically since 1885, but 1t was
imperfect and inaccurate until recent years.

Little Sergeant Harley was good soldier
not to keep his men well in hand on a day of so

But just the blankets were being spread on
the guard-house floor, and Harley gazing
placidly at the stars above him and thanking his
stars, there came out of the darkness Larry
Bagglety, and with him a zephyr that seemed
first to have wandered through several distlleries.

True for you Larry. 'Tis as fine this

day, Larry"
Don't mention it, What's little thing like

As he paused for reply Larry took something from
inside his blouse, held it up to Harley's face, and
continued, in hOarse whisper: "Shmell of that

Harley had not tasted liquor twenty times in
his life; but suddenly he found himself wishing
that he had great capacity for alcohol, for the
he could absorb from the bottle in his
hand the less trouble would the stuff cause in the
guard. Had the liquor and the charge been given
to him by anyone but Larry Bagglety he would
have tossed the bottle across the road into the
stubble-held. But the Comrade who has saved ones
life Outranks almost everyone and everything else,
any soldier knows, and the remembrance of such
service will make the best of them willing trans

discipline to favor his benefactor.
