How lie Cot lac Nickname.

Jerry Simpson, the Kansas congress
man who died recently, was Canadian
by birth. and in early life was a sailor
on the great lakes.
Simpsons chief claim to fame rested
in his sobriquet, 'Sockless" Jerry. He
acquired the nickname during one CT
his early Kansas campaigns, and it
chung to him through life. 1t was about
that time that the tariff Issue was
prominent, and an eastern manufac-
turer of hosiery sent Simpson a box of
fine socks as a present, intending there
by to convey an object lesson on the
vale of American industries. Simpson
declined the gift, and in doing so said:
"Our forefathers refused to drink tea
because it was taxed 3 per cent, and
held a tea party in Boston for the pur-
pose of getting rid of the stuff. 1 have
just finished figuring UP the tax on
those stockings, and 1 find that it
amounts to 20 per cent. will wear no
socks till the tax is taken off"
He was half in jest and half in earn
est, but the people accepted his declar-
alton seriously and as the tax was not
abolished they concluded he was not
wearing socks. Hence his sobriquet of
''Sockless Jerry" There was nothing
in it. He wore hose, although it would
be hard to make the farmers of Kansas
believe it.

PAUL MOTIONS IDEAS.

L. president of the Equitable Life
Assurance company, believes great
good will result from the Investigation
of the affairs of the insurance compa-
MES.
''The result OF the present investiga-
ton" he said today, will be beneficial
not only to the insurance companies,
but to all corporations. The inquiry
will have the effect OF forcing insur-
ance companies and other corporations
upon firmer and sounder basis. 1t
will promote conservatism that will
insure a safety of investment which
the public desires. do not care to talk
about the extravaganza which has been
exposed, further than to say that in
my judgment such thing will be i'm
possible after the present investigation
is concluded :"

APOSTLE MISSION HOUSE.
Reasons Advanced Why Young
Priests Should Put in a Year Here.
lSpecial Cnrresnnndenca

Especial Correspondence
washington, Nov. Among the
most popular courses of lectures at the
Catholic university is the one given by
rather Elliott at the Apostolic Mission
| house. There are in attendance at this
lecture twenty-six priest students. Be-
sides the large number who are in resi-
dence ct the mission house, the others
come from the Holy Cross, college, Di-
Vinity hall and the Paulists This
course Of lectures is on the methods of
giving missions particularly to nom
Catholics, and it includes the prepara-
ton OF sermons on the main TOPICS of
instruction that anyEpriest will preach
on all his life long. A bishop said of
the course at the Apostolic Mission
house: 1 wish it We're possible l would
have every young priest in my diocese
follow such a course for even if he
does not devote himself TO the giving of
missions he is by all odds better
equipped for the ordinary ministry
after have written out his sermons and
instructions on these every day topics :"
II is true; young priest who spends
a year after his ordination at the mis-
sion mouse is ten times better fitted for
ms ministry than one who, in the stress
OF pafochlal work, has no time for ser
mon preparation. The latter breaches
as infrequently as he can. and when he
does he is not adequately prepared. He
very often inflicts a, half-hour agony
OH the people.
Many young priests are becoming
more ana more persuaded of this fact
and are wisely devoting themselves be-
fore the hard active work begins to the
adequate preparation.
Inc hon-Catholic mission work has
progressed SO far in this country now
that there are Twelve dioceses w1ere
the diocesan priests are giving mis-
Sions.

bands is the one in Peoria. AS soon as

CITY OF DENVER.
Reception rendered by Queens
Daughters Social Success.

So phenomenally successful was the
reception rendered by the Queen s
Daughters to their friends last week
that similar affairs are being planned
for the course of the winter season.
The reception was held at the home of
the Misses Shevnin, 1861 Pennsylvania
avenue, on Thursday evening. Oct. 26,
from until II o'clock. During that
time about $50 friends called and the
offerings made to assist in the Christ
mas work planned by the society
amounted to a trifie over $50. This is
considered remarkably fine. Aside
from the financial success achieved,
the evening was a delight socially.
The pretty home of the Misses Shev-
min was made more artistic by a Hal
lOwe'en decorative scheme. In the din
ing room a cluster of rich red apples
was suspended from the chandelier by
red ribbon streamers. and pumpkins
cut into every conceivable form we're
artisticauy arranged about the room.
Cut flowers adorned the table. In the
library a bower for fortune-telling had
been fitted UP in the corner, and here
autumn foliage i'm abundance was used.
The ices were served from a prettily
decorated corner Of the library.
Both parlors were decorated in cut
flowers, and i'm the hall a harpist dis

Will Not Be Cheaper.

Asked if he thought one result would
be the placing of insurance on q, cheap
er basis. Mr.. Morton replied:
IL hardly think so. The people do
not want cheap insurance, but they do
want safe insurance. My observation
has been that cheap insurance is never
safe insurance Insurance has become
an acknowledged investment. one in
which a man does not have to wait
for death before anybody can obtain
any good from it. Being a legitimate
and good investment. and being recog-
nized as such, the public has a right to
demand that it be safe.
My belief is that the present agita-
tion is going to bring about just that
result-the guarantee Of a safe invest
ment in insurance. Hereafter men who
run insurance companies will not dare
to do anything that will make invest
ment in their companies other than
safe. for fear of exposure and condem-
natin by the public
