GHOST IN PHOTOGRAPH.
Dead Man's Face in Group Picture Shocks Washington Fire
 men.

Washington.-Ghosts, net one, but two or three of them, insist on hang Ing around the quarters of engine No. 3. on the Tenellytown road.
 One of the ghosts, according to the dremen. bears a striking resemblance to driver who was killed by being thrown beneath the wheels of the en- zine. The latest appearance of the dead driver was the other day, when the members of the company had a group picture taken.
 When the plate was developed by the photographer there appeared a lace at one of the windows of the mems sleeping apartments. This face bears remarkable resemblance to that of the dead driver. The firemen say that every man of the company Is accounted for in the picture. and that it is impossible Tor stranger 10 have been looking out of the window while the picture was being taken.

SLAVERY FOR oRPHANs.
Children Adopted by Farmers Sub.
 iected to a Life of Hardship.

Galveston, Tex, June 23.--Wash- ington county citizens have protest ed to the authorities to stop the inn portation and distribution of orphans to the foreign settlers in that region. The protest is made in humanity's sake and is backed by recitals of evil dence that these orphans sent out from an ayslum in New York are practically placed in slavery.
 Settlements of Poles and Scandi- navians have taken twenty-five of these children ranging in age from z to 12 years, and have applied for more little ones to adopt. The chtl- dren are made to work in the fields and are reared. if they survive the hard life, in ignorance. These for eigners are all farmers and never learn to speak English. They are a sturdy class of people and their off, spring strong and used to the hard ships of such life. The orphans gIv- en to these families are American children, whose lives are endangered
 Agents were sent out with the first consignment of nearly 200 children for distribution in Texas and the ter ritories, and complaints made tothese agents were not considered.
 The eldest of the orphans relate pitiful stories of their lives with these unspeakable foreigners, and a formal protest Is being prepared to present to the governor of Texas to intercede with the authorities of New York.

POWERS ARE DEFINED.
Attorney General Says Life Insurance Agent Cannot Effect Fire Contracts.

l Hartford, June 23.-The following communication from Attorney Gen.
 eral King to Insurance Commissioner I Upson gives the formers opinion as
 to the powers of the life insurance
 agent in this state, which the attor-
 ney general does not think include
 the writing of fire Insurance busi-
 ness:
 have before me your communica-
 tion reading as follows:
 l May an authorized agent of life
 insurance company that is legally ad-
 mitted to do business in this state ] negotiate or effect contracts of insur-
 ance or reinsurance with any quali-
 fled domestic fire insurance company
 or its agents, or with the authorized ! agents in this state of any foreign fire insurance company duly admit ted here? Or, in other words, does section 3631 apply to fire insurance
 business only?"
 Section 3631. "The authorized
 agent of any company legally admit ted to do business in this state may, | without being deemed broker or i procuring brokers certificate of au- kthority, negotiate or effect contracts | of insurance or reinsurance with any qualified domestic insurance company or It's agents. and with the author ized agents in this state of any for eign insurance company admitted to do business in this state"
 The language of this section, standing by itself, might. perhaps. seem to permit the agent of alife in- surance company under the condi- tions set forth in your communica- tion. to effect contracts of insurance or reinsurance with fire insurance company or its agents.
 From an examination of the legis- .lation since. 1885 on this subject I am satisfied that such is not the true construction of the section.
 In my opinion, the agent of a life insurance company that is legally ad- mitted to do business in this state may negotiate or effect contracts of insurance or reinsurance with any qualified domestic life insurance com- pany, or its agents. and with the au- thorized agents in the state of any foreign life insurance company ad- mitted to do business: but such life insurance agent is not authorized. by section 3631, to effect contracts of fire Insurance or reinsurance.

THE NOISE AT PoIIs.
Teacher Says Grown People as Well as Children Were Weary of Address.


 Tt was not the children in the gallery who were SO much to blanc for the disturbance at Polls theater on Thursday evening during the con- mencement exercises of the graduat- ing class of the high school, but the person or. persons who brought such speaker here to entertain the au- dience that was present are tho ones who should come in for the criti- cism." The above statement was made to Democrat reporter this morning by one of the teachers in the high school. The teacher stated that poor judgment had been exer. cised in bringing Mir Cable here, as mot only the children and the other disturbers in the gallery were weary of the address, but almost the entire audience as every word of it was read from manuscript.
 The gallery outbreaks at Polls seem to occur every so often and just at the time when there is larga audience at the theater. After every outbreak there is much talk of not allowing the thing to occur again, but as long as there Is a gallery these things will come off, especially at those times when the gallery is so full that there is hardly room in the place to squeeze another person in and the police have poor chance to hustle around to pick out the offen- ders. The last serious outbreak hap pened during the engagement during the wiIter of the Sothern-Marlow All Star company when during the death scene in the last act of Romeo and Juliet" the gallery behaved as 1T the show was farce comedy.

CANADA CONSIDERING
! ANNEXATION OF JAMAICA
American Consul Says Islanders Favor

RN w, w, Jermane.

Washington, April ACCORDING to
the American consul at Three Rivers,
Canada, the Canadian government is
seriously considering the proposition to
annex the island Of Jamaica. The con-,
sul's letter to the American govern
ment says:
''The esta blishment Of steamship
lines between Canadian ports and Mex
leo and a line between England and
the West Indies with New York as the
calling port have evidently quickened
the annexation sentiment. The pres
ident of the West Indian Electric com
pany, who has just returned from a
visit to Jamaica, declares himself a
convert to the policy. Of bringing that
island into the Canadian confederation.
/ 'The Jamaicans would be unanimous
for annexation to Canada if they can
be convinced that it can be accom-
plish9 I'd without y jeepardizing their ban.
with the United States. They fear
that if Jamaica were part Of the do
minion the Americans would put duty
on this one Of their most profitable ar
ticles of export. - &
