Turtle Lake, N. D., Dec. 3.-samuel
Haiback was found dead in his bed in
shack on his homestead, having
been asphyxiated.
The condition of the room indicated
that the man had gone to bed after
filling his stove with Ignite and clos
ing the shack tight. There was a
poor draft in the chimney, and a
change in the wind during the night
sent the gas from the coal back into
the room, suhocating the man as he
slept. To make death certain, the
stove exploded, filling the air with the
noxious vapor.
Haiback came from Norway In 1900.
and located in Mclean county, near

FOR STATE INSURANCE
FLORIDA GOVERNOR HAS NEW
PLAN FOR LIFE RISKS.
Legislature Defeated Bill, but He Be-
lieves Public Sentiment Insures Sue
cess for the Proposition.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla, June IL
The state of Florida will enter the lite
insurance business if Gov. Broward wins
the fight he is making to secure the
necessary legislation. Public sentiment
seems to be with the governor. In his
message to the Legislature of 1908 Gov.
Broward strongly suggested the enact
ment of such law. The bill passed the
lower house practically without opposi-
ton, but was talked to death in the Sen
ate on the closing day of the session.
The following reasons for state insur-
ance are set forth by the governor:
Every policy will ne guaranteed by the
state. premiums will he low; bonuses will
be 'arge-ali the earnings of the depart
mcnt; policies viii be free from restrictions
The department will he purely mutual ana
all assets and profits VIII belong to ana

serve funds will be invested In the state.
Its policies will acquire liberal surren-
der and loan value after two years pre-
niuns have been paid, thus enabling the
insured TO raise needed money at low
rate.
The surrender value will be applied. The
maximum cost win be known AZ the start
The cost Of the policies viii be reduced
by the trcnnial distribution Of the surplus,
In which there are no stockholders TO share.
All the surplus will be returned to the pol
ley holder.

CRUSH TO SEE TERRY
DRURY LANE PACKED AND MANY
DISAPPOINTED.
Great Actresses and Singers Appear at
Jubilee-Many Waited All Night
for Seats in Vain.

LONDON, June 12.-The all-night
vigil of the admirers of Miss Ellen Terry.
who were anxious to get into Drury Lane
theater and witness ner jubilee matinee
performance this afternoon ended III the
disappointment of hundreds who, after
Drawing a twenty-four hours wait out
side the pit and gallery doors, failed to
obtain admittance.
The doors were opened at 1880 to ac-
commodate the crowd and for few MIN
utes the scene resembled football scrlm-
mage. Then came the word that the
house was full, and number OF I'M
sentimental policemen moved on the
crowds whose Spartan patience had
failed to secure the hopsd-for reward.
When the overture of the remarkable
programme, containing the name of prac-
tically every stage star now in London
was started, Drury Lane was packed
from floor to ceiling.
Probably such galaxy of stage tai
ent was never before seen in combina-
ton as for hours occupied the boards of
Drury Lane in honor of Ellen Terry.
Signora Duse, Nine. Rejane and the
two Coquelins came over from France,
and Nine Melba and Signor Caruso
were down for songs, while the feature
of the many sided programme was the
cast of the first act of Much Ado
About Nothing" in which twenty-three
members of the Terry family. headed by
Ellen Terry herself, appeared.

New Railway Into Central Asia.

Within a short time regular trai file will
be opened on the Tashkent railway, a
new line which starts at the station
Kinel east of Samara. and runs south
east to AkuubinSk in the Mongodjarsk
mountains, north of the Aral sea, thence
to Kazalinsk and Turkestan. where it
connects with the Central Asia railway.
The new railway is of great impor-
lance. Although the traffic to central
Asia was maintained long ago by steam
ers on the Caspian sea and the Central
Asia railway. up to the present it took
six and one-half days to travel from
Moscow to TaShEent, whereas it will
now take only four days,
The journey from Moscow to Tashkent
will cover 2OOO miles. Besides accela
rating the passenger and post service the
Tashkent railway is important as far as
the freight traffic is concerned. MS for
instance the transportation of corn to
central Asia and cotton and horticultural
stock from central Asia into European
Russia. The new railway is also impor-
tant from strategical point of view
