two great divisions, participating" an!

those in which the insured person
shares in the profits" of the company.
ard those that furnish protection
against death for a aiven term. and
nothing else. A man Of % may by pay.

policies can practically be d%isresarded.

Orleans Timcs-Democrat. In a recent
history OF South America attention is
called to a number OF things which tend
TO show that the popular estimate of
valor and heroism in that section of the
world may not be altogether the correct
one. 1t is related that once the Peruvian
monitor Huascar fought against three
Chilean ships.
After both Admiral Grau and his flag
lieutenant were killed. Capt. Aguirre

ceeded by Capt Carbajal. who was put
hors de combat by a shell. The com

who was disabled. and finally Lieut..
Gareyon. with the ship on fire, three feet
OF water in the hold. and with a loss OF
half his officers and crew, was forced
to strike his flag. On July %, 1879. the
Huascar was in action against the
Chllean ship Abtao. Torpedoes at that
time were not much understood, and one.

CROP WORTH LESS
That OF 1904 Is Greater Than 1908
Yield, But Its Value IL the
Reverse.

Measured In dollars. the l 1000. 600
bales OF the l90i cotton crop are WORTH
less than the 10000. 900 bales of the 1905
crop. says the New York World. The
difference In total value is enormous. a
pound of raw cotton which last Febru-
AIRY sold for II cents is worth only eight
cents now.
Cotton Is selling at $40 a bale now, as
compared with $40 to SIS a year ago. Al
that rate the total value of the 1904 crop
will be less than $500. O0o. 00O. while the
1909 crop sold for over 500. 000. 900.
1t is p%aradoxical that as one result OF
the increased industry OF the southern
planters they receive 5000. 900. 900 less. II
they had planted less. cultivated less and
allowed the boil wecvil to flourish they
would have been better OF. The imme-
date effect will be to discourage south
ern enterprise and to diminish the value

States principal article of export. The

ciaries.
