The Grand Lodge officers of the
Ancient Order of United Work
men decided last week at a meet
ing in Chicago to raise the insur-
ance rates of the Order for men,
bers more than 55 years old. The
increase will make the rates 80 per
cent higher than at present. The
cause for the action was the ina
bility to meet death claims that
have occurred during the past three
months.

HOW IT'S DONE IN
NEVADA.
Staid Mining Operators Get
Dizzy Watching Up-to-
Date Methods iE the
New Camps.

G. d. Rookiidge, manager of the
Pioneer Sampiing Works at Salt
Lake who has just been rounding
up some Of the Nevada camps, has
returned home, saturated with
contagion contracted while brush
ing elbows with goldbugs on his
trip" says the Salt Lake Herald
and this is the way he saw things
done in Nevada:
Ordinary, everyday, sober min
ing men usually have to be shown
a whole lot of things before they
will invest in a property, but the
rule does not apply to the Nevada
camps. The man who stands
around and wants to argue the
question, who insists that develop
ment must be done before he will
consent to part with his cash,
doesn't get in, that's all. While
such a man is telling the owner of
q property that he likes the looks
of the ground, and, if it was devel-
oped some he would be inclined to
tackle it, some one else steps up,
shakes a check in the face of the
owner and a sale is made before
the other fellow gets a chance to
catch his breath.
THE SHORTEST ROUTE.
Going to Manhattan, Mr.. Rock
lidge took the Austin route and he
considers it the best way to go
from Salt Lake aud considerably
the cheapest.
The fare from Salt Lake to Bat
tie Mountain is $40 so, from Bat.
tie Mountain to Austin 50, and
from Austin to Manhattan, about
eighty miles over a fine road, by
stage, is $40 80. To go around by
Tonopah costs from $65 to SIS ac-
cording to whether a stage coach
or auto is taken from Tonopah.
The single fare by auto from Ton
opah to the camp is $50 for the
fifty miles.

Scientific men have at last discov-
cred how to catch the octopus. All you
have to do is to put salt on his tail"
a very fine specimen of the octopus,
or. as it is more commonly called the
devil-fish." has been added to the New
York aquarium. AS a general thing
it has been found impossible to take
this creature alive and in health, be-
cause as soon as any object touches
one of its tentacles, or ''feelers," it
fastens to the rocks so tenaciously
with the other tentacles that some of
the limbs may be. and generally are,
torn OF. Fishermen lately discovered.
however, that salt sprinkled upon the
gills of the creature acts as an anes-
thetic, and renders 1t temporarily
powerless. The specimen in the New
York aquarium is said to have been
captured in this way

The Vice of Haste.

Every virtue lies between two vices.
Such is the location of the virtue OF
leisure. Especially in this hurrying
age and country, haste becomes a
habit and then a disease. If one rush
es to the next mail with letter
whose reception, whether this week
or next. is no matter at all: If he
vaguely feels that not TO have to hur-
ry for his car is to begin the day but
slackly. evidently he is il the grip of
a disease. The spendthrift OF his time
is no worse than the miser of it. who
must needs have every moment at
usury, remarks Arthur Cotton, in
Reader. If procrastination is thief
who steals from tomorrow for the
benefit of to-day. he has his counter
who steals from to-day for the benefit
of tomorrow. Thievery is thievery.
and Poor Richard, with his Have you
somewhat to do tomorrow, do it to-
day." was most immoral counselor.
This encroaching future must be kept
in its place. and justice and courtesy
done to the hour which is our guest.

Shot a TriHe High.

During the Spanish war, while the
battleships were on blockade at San
tiago, il was customary to load the six
pouniar guns every evening to protect
against possible torpedo boat attack,
says Harper's Weekly. While the trig-
gers were being cased down one of the
guns on the Massachusetts was acci-
dentally discharged, the shot passing
over the quarterback of the Texas,
which was lying next in the blockad-
ing line. All the officers Of the Texas
were on deck smoking and talking
when the shot passed few feet above
.heir heads. Almost before it struck
he water a signal was started on the
Texas from its commanding officer,
Capt Jack Phillips, to the command
ing officer OF the Massachusetts. The
signal was, Good line, but a triiie
high"

Important Mining Suit Decided.

More courtship After Marriage.


Some men seem to consider their
marriage certificate as a sort of fully
paid-up policy of happiness. They act
as If the courtship days were those OF
paying premiums of compliment.
cheerfulness. courtesy, consideration
and chivalry. and that marriage cuts
on all these premiums of loyer-like at
tention. The only way to get an abso-
lutely guaranteed insurance on matri-
mony is to keep paying the premiums.
Many first-class matrimonial policies
lapse just because OF thece suspended
payments. There Is n tendency to as
sumo that this love Is known and rec
ognized. so why speak OF 1t?
This is dangerous taking for

But courtship is not solitaire; like a
quarrel. it requires two to make it
success. II is not the wife alone who
needs the gracious sweetness of con-
centrated comradeship. for husbands
who are built on the right lines have
the same hunger for loving kindness
and kindly loving. Courtship is a
vessel of promise that is often wreck
