Chinese Commissioners Visit Hub of
the Universe.

Boston, Feb. 1.-THE Chinese high
commissioners, who will be the guests
of the city and state for two days, ar
rived here from New York this fore
noon. The party was received at the
station by Governor Guild and Adju-
tant General Frey.
Mayor Fitzgerald later took charge
of the party, and for several hours the
foreigners were whirled about the city
from one historical point to another,
and finally taken to Harvard college,
where they were entertained at
luncheon at the Harvard Union by
President Eliot.
Later the commissioners were the
guests of the American board of COM
missioners fOr foreign missions at
Congregational House.
Tomorrow the party will visit the

TEN THOUSAND ENOUGH.
Governor johnson Does Not Think a
Man Should Have More.

Duluth, Mimi, Feb. III do not be-
lieve that any man should have more
than $4,000 a year, for If he lives right
he does not need any more declared
Governor John A. Johnson in an address
at the Lyceum theatre tonight. Cover
nor Johnson spoke under the auspices of
the Duluth Y. NJ. G. A. Continuing, he
said:
THE most vicious standard of success
in the world is that which sets up dol
lars and cents as the height of human
ambition. There is a man in New York
who has set his ambition at one billion
dollars, and if he ever lives to acquire
it he will be sorry that it is not two
billion. The man who makes money the
be-all and end-all of his career is the
most miserable man in the world.
There are many men whose records
are tending to besfnirch the fair name
of the nation" said the governor, in
conclusion, but / believe we have at
its head a man great enough and good
enough to guide the ship of state in the
right direction"

Lodge Attended.
Especial TO The Herald.)

Rexburg. Ida, Feb. 1.-THE Wood
men of the World had a big time here
on Saturday. The occasion was a pub
lie installation of local camp officers OF
Rexburg Camp No. 566. The days
programme began with the forming
into line of the local Woodmen at
Flamm's corner at IL a. IN: the col
unnn was headed by the Kicks Acad-
erny brass band. The line of march
was taken up and the column proceed
ed to the o. s.. L. depot to meet the
1870 train which had on board the
Free Silver Camp No. les from Poca-
tello, which came here to take part IN
the ceremonies Of installation. A de-
gree team Of the visiting camp We're IN
uniform and armed with the symbol
of their order, the axe. Mayor JACOBS
and c. w. Woodmansee of the Rex
burg Commercial club met the visitors
at the train and welcomed them
Mayor Jacobs turned over the keys OF
the CITY to them. After marching
through the principal streets the
Woodmen held a short meeting in the
forenoon at FIamm's hall, where ad-
dresses Of welcome were made by
Mayor Jacobs in behalf of the city,
and Chairman Woodmansee for the
Commercial club. An able response
camp, after which the camp honors
were given to the mayor.
In the afternoon an elaborate pro-
grakme was rendered. 1t consisted
of musical numbers by the Academy
band, the Rexburg orchestra, and local
artists. The degree team from POca-
telio gave an exhibition drill and seated
the local officers. Addresses were made
by County Attorney Soule OF ST. An
thony, and Attorney Frank HoltZ-
hein.er of PocatellO. Those gentlemen
in an earnest and able manner ex-
planned the objects and benefits of the
order. They cOmplimented the people
of Rexburg on what they had done in
the industrial and educational lines and
also the Academy band and those TAX
ing part in a musical way TO make
their visit pleasant.
Near the close of the afternoon meet
ing the officers were installed with the
ceremonies and admOnitiOns of the or
der. About fifty new members were
initiated on Saturday night. There are
now about 200 members in the local
camp. Judge Stephen, the district or
ganizer, expects that the membership
will be 500 before long, Auxiliary or
genization will also be perfected soon.
The meetings in the afternoon were
we'll attended and many had to remain
standing being unable TO get seats.
There were some amusing features be
tween times. A kangaroo court of the
Woodmen arrested and imposed trivial
fines upon members and officials of the
visiting and local camps.
The work of the order is recognized
by all thinking people. We wish the
local officers success in whatever they
undertake.

the ground beneath it a second cobra

The natives one and all declared that
the mate Of the dead snake had come
Riong during the night and shed its

this could have been possible. But
whatever might be the true explana-
ton, there were the two skins.
Another story, which, however, IS

that q lady awoke one morning, and,
looking round the room, was Mortified
at seeing a snake coiled upon the back
of a chair. She was newly from Eng

such incident. and her terror was so
extreme that for time she lay notion

breathe. But presently she plucked up
a little spirit and look round for some
way of escape. Unfortunately, there
was only one door and the chair stood
close beside it. and not for all the
wealth of the Indies would she have
attempted to run the gauntlet
In this predicament she could do
nothing but cry out for help. soon she

NOTICE TO SHYlOCK.
State Takes Up Cause Of San Fran
cisco Insurance Victims.

San Francisco, June 9-At confer
ence today between Insurance Commits.
sioner E. Myron Wolf and F. G. Coo.
gan. attorney OF the underwriters, Mr..
Wolf warned the latter that he would
Immediately call for a list Of policy
holders from every company which
failed to eign an agreement to extend to
80 days the time for proof of loss.
The notification is equivalent TO
declaration of war on all companies
which have not signed. The statute
provides $1,000 penalty for failure to
respond to the demand. In effect, the
order will compel every company to
grant the extension or 60 out of busi
ness in this state.
The sweeping order applies to more
than half Of the companies doing bust
nees in the city, and is designed by
Mr.. Wolf to complete the work begun
when notice was served on all the
companies suggesting that ali sign an
agreement which would prevent the
policies from lapsng through the ina
bil'ty of the insured to get their proofs
made out in time.
The policy holders OF the Traders
Insurance company will form corpor.
alton to look after their interests in
the litigation which will be brought
to compel that concern to pay all obli-
cations in full. This was determined at
a meeting of the policy holders held in
this city today.

.EXASPERATE CITY
BY LONG DELAY
Insurance Men Defer Paying San
Francisco Losses.
Millions Lie Idle in Banks to Greet
Of Companies While All Manner
Of Devices to Avoid PAYMENT or
Reduce Amounts Are Being Re.
sorted to.

San Francisco, June 9.-Interest here
has centered in the insurance situation.
Business conditions remain uncertain
and wait upon the settlement of losses.
The time has come when the insurance
companies must positively declare
themselves The policies held by San
Franciscans call for the payment of
about 100000, 900. So far but little
more than $1,000, 900 has been paid.
and almost all of this was in email
amounts. The 5000, ,00O,0O is needed
to enable the people of the city to re.
sumo business. How badly the money
is needed may be gathered from the
clearing house figures. In May, 1905.
tho clearances in San Francisco
amounted to $4,000, 900. For May.
1905, the clearances amounted to
$50, 900, 900. In other words, one-third
as much business was done last month
as in the corresponding month year
ago. The policy holders have become
weary OF the dilatory tactics of the III
surance companies. They have re-
Trained from criticism for six weeks,
but now are insisting that their claims
be paid without further delay. The
policy holders of each company have
banded together for protection. They
have the support Of the newspapers,
the commercial bodies and the indus
trial and commercial organizations of
every city on the coast. They no long
er deal as single individuals with the
insurance companies, but present a
solid front which is not to be repulsed.
This organization will save them in the
end.
1t is known that millions of dollars
are lying dormant in the banks of this
city and Oakland to the credit of the
insurance companies. The question
naturally suggests itself: Why do not
the insurance companies pay? The
answer is that they are trying to drive
the best bargain they can, hoping to
bring about compromise in the end.
These are not pretty tactics, but never
theless they are used.

BLOW TO THE WEST.
Mining, Irrigation and Lumber Inter-
ests Will Feel Effect Of Economy.

Mining, irrigation and Lumper 'nter-
ests Will Feel Effect Of Economy.
Washington. June 12.-House repre-
sentatives struck a severe blow to the
entire West in cutting down the all
important appropriation for the geo.
logical survey carried by the sundry
civil bill, and unless the senate in
creases these items, mining, irrigation
and lumber interests will feel the effect
of the house legislation. In all $685.
900 has been cut off the geological sur
vey appropriation.
The government was about to begin
the testing of mineral fuels OF the
West, including the Goals and lignites
of the Pacific coast. Little work OF this
character can be done, for the appro-
priation was only 500, 900, when twice
that amount has been annually appro-
prlated for similar work in the East.
Instead of 500, 900 to carry on the
investigation of mineral resources, in.
cluding black sand experiments at Port
land, the house grants but $50, 900.
This will shut off the black sand work
entirely, when the present special fund
is expended.
The appropriation for forest reserve
surveys is cut from $3.50, 900 to $780,
900 and a cut OF $50, 900 is made in
the appropriation for topographic sur
veys, which form the basis of all the
geological survey work. Congress has
been appropriating 5000, 900 annually
to gauge streams preliminary to under
taking actual irrigation work. This is
cut to 500, 900 and means material in.
reference with irrigation surveys in 10.
calities where new projects are contem-
plated.
Another cut that will be felt is in
the appropriation for the annual report
on mineral resources of the United
States. This will cut down the sub
ject matter of the valuable government
document and will restrict the issue to
the inconvenience of the mining inter-
ests of the country.
