a peculiar experience which,

to the police, the alleged body inferred
here as that of La Flora s. Baker, de-

Baker was cashier of the Northern

The Biggest Graft of All.

The summing up of THE Story of
| Life Insurance." which has been run
| ming for several months in McClure's,
| has been awaited with general inter-
est as the article has drawn near it's
| close. Mr.. Hendrick does not disap-
point popular anticipation. In the
| November number of the magazine
he delivers one of the most eloquent
and impressive utterances in review
of this subject that has appeared in
! print. The article opens with an an
| alysis of the oyershadowing menace
of the whole business-the craze for
size-in comparison with which the
evils hitherto described become in
significant. Mr.. Hendrick relates
how the Mutual and Equitable have
paid for new business, in this coun-
try alone, nearly ninety cents out of
every dollar taken in. He describes
the breathless pursuit for agents-in
which bakers, grocers, and ish-cart
peddlers were enlisted, and summer
schools" started for the purpose of
roping in college graduates. He tells
how under the bonus system watches,
diamond rings, summer outings n
expensive banquets have been lavish
ed on agents at the expense OF the
policy holders; of how a large traihc
in deceptive policies has peel carried
on; and of how the vicious system Oh
| rebating has continued in defance OIL
the laws passed against 1T. All these
evils he traces to the N source-the
mania for / big annual showing.
With the exposure of this last,
most astonishing graft which this
history has retailed, Mr.. Hendricks
comes to the conclusion of his story.

holders of the country will rank as
one of the most fasterly statements
which the life insurance investiga-
ton has called forth.

Although many remarkable
achievements of l.. T. Cooper and
his medicines have been printed
from time to time none are more
startlingly wonderful than his cure
of deafness. His phenomenal sue
cess seems to have taken New
Orleans by storm. Every news
paper in the city is devoting col
umns to the reports of his work.
From the small boy to the be-
whiskered grandpa, and from mil
lionaire to pauper, every n has
some extraordinary story to relate
that is more remarkable than the
rest. His headquarters at the
American Drug Store is besieged
with callers and a dozen clerks are
busy all day long selling the medi-
cineS.
One can spend an interesting
hour watching the crowds come
and go, and listening to the story
of his patients. One man, Mr.. q.
Garcia by name, who gave his adj
: dress as 144S North Robertson
street, New Orleans, telling his
experience, was overheard to say,
that for six years he was unable
to hear without the aid of an ear
trumpet, and yet he was apparent
ly having no difficulty in under
standing every word spoken to
Fhim in an ordinary conversational
tone. When asked about the re-
suit of the treatment in his case,
he said: my hearing had become
SO poor that | had to give up my
position. For the last six years |
have not been able to hear without
the aid of a trumpet and of late
even then only when spoken to in
a very loud voice. | also suffered

TRENTON, Nov. 6:-Because of a

Emergency Hospital, of this city, OPP

Gale has gone to his former home,
and it is said he took the keys of the
institution with him, leaving the case
in the hands of a local lawyer with
instructions to secure the sum he
paid for a half-interest in the hospi-
tai.

there was any misrepresentation on

he would open the hospital in a few

The hospital was at first run on a

Gently the institution was converted
