Open Letter From
Pacific Department
Royal Insurance Company Of Liverpool


Many OF the Companies which al
the memorable meeting Of June 18th
voted In favor OF a horizontal deduc
ton OF mot less than 25Tt," have. rs
We predicted. found II impossible to
settle their San Francisco losses on
that basis and have been forced.
though reluctantly. to pay consider
able more than an average OF 1870 OF
their claims. Some which voted to
adjust every claim on Its merits and
pay the same Dollar for DJllar,'
have fallen away from that high and
correct standard and have submitted
their policy holders to sharp dcduc.
tons from adjusted claims. Others,
while paying In full have, In accord
rnce with Eastern usage. exacted
cash discount In lieu OF sixty days
time In which to make payment.
The "RoYAL" has paid every
claim a. soon az the amount Of loss
has been agreed upon with the assur.
I'd, In full, In cash, without . cent Of
discount. Comparatively few compa'
nies have pursued as broad and as lib
eral a course.
We have refrained from commenting
upon the conduct Of any individual
company, believing II better to extol
the virtues OF our own. The ROYAL
INSURANCE COMPANY OF Liverpool
has paid to date 1853 claims, aggre-
eating $3.50, 635.SS. We have remain.
Ing but a few unsettled losses, and
these are chiefly awaiting authorize
ton of claimants abroad, probate pro
ceedings. or further investigation a.
to actual amount Of fire loss.
The ROYAL" continues to be the
leading Fire Insurance Company OF
the world. Its annual income Is over
SIS ,000. 900. Its San Francisco gross
losses were not very much more than
cne.third Of one years premiums, and
its surplus, after all losses are paid.
will exceed the surplus Of any other
Company In the world.
II has been building up its reserves
for years against just such a disaster
as came to San Francisco and was
therefore able to meet Its great losses

A Home lovinu Bird,

Direct evidence of the return of the same individual bird of migrating species to particular spot season after season is not easily obtainable, but N. c. Beers believes that he has such evidence concerning a chipping sparrow at Lakewood, N. J. says the Youths Companion. A few years ago he heard little bird concealed in the top of maple uttering a peculiar song which he could not recognize. The next season he heard the same peculiar song in tree but a few yards from the original point. This time he identified the bird, which seemed to have learned song of its own. The third year he did not visit Lakewood at the proper season to meet his little friend, but the fourth year he heard and saw it again near the same spot. It appeared always to make it's summer home in the trees on an area not more than two acres in extent.

JOKE ON PROFESSOR
UNWITTlNG VICTIM OF HIS OWN
 ADVICE.
Pupil Faithfully Followed instructions and the Result Was Broken Rest for the Unfortunate Music
 Teacher.

The late Prof Julius Eichberg, whose violin school was at one time one of the most fourishing institu- tions of Boston, enjoyed telling the following joke which was innocently played on him by pupil
 Just before the vacation season he once inquired of boy how much he intended to practice on his violin dur ing the summer.
 "Oh, not very much" replied the youngster.
 Not very muchi How is that?"
 Because I want to play and enjoy myself. There are many other boys where we go summers"
 That's very we'll" answered Eich- berg. but can you not devote one hour a day to your violn?"
 NO, sir" was the prompt reply.
 Half an hour?"
 No, not even that. have no time"
 ''It is too bad, for you will forget everything you have learned"
 Eichberg stopped minute to think and then said:
 What time do you rise mornings when on your vacation?"
 Very early, sir-between five and six
 Well, that's the best time. Put in half an hours practice every morning before you go down to breakfast"
 The boy promised faithfully to do so, and teacher and pupil parted on the best of terms.
 A few weeks later, Eichberg was peacefully sluEi5ering in one of the cool rooms of fashionable summer hotel, which he and his family reached the night before, when he was most inopportunely awakened by the furi- ous screeching of violin just over his head.
 T wonder who the plaguey catgut- seraper is at this hour" grumbled he, as he looked at his watch, and was mortified to see that it was not yet six o'clock
 Sleeping late, as was his continental habit, was altogether out of the ques- tion for Eichberg that morning, for the outlandish screeching was faith fully kept up just half an hour, and then suddenly ceased.
 By that time, however, he had dressed himself, and having come downstairs, was about to enter the dining room for breakfast together with the usual early risers, when he was joyously greeted by boy with familiar face, who said proudly:
 T follow your advice, professor, and have not missed one morning. Have just put in half an hours practice"
 T know it. grimly answered Eich- berg.
 Immediately after breakfast he walked to the desk and asked for an- other room.

Is the Horse Doomed?

One has only to compare the streets of London, where horses are far more used than here, with those of New York to realize how much we have gained by our increasing use of me chanical motors for our trucks and street cars. The banishment of horses from the city, for any use except park and suburban driving, would make the town as much more comfortable than it is now as the present New York is more comfortable to get about in than London. But Mr. Edison's promises for storage batteries for automobiles have not yet materialized. It might be prudent not to sell your truck horse until your neighbor has used one of the new motors and you can see how it works.

of the United States so far as its pop ulation Is concerned any more than 1t Is as far as its agricultural products are concerned. Northerners, south erners, customers and westerners mingle harmoniously there, all grow ing prosperous together. Every state in the union is represented by at least 800 natives.
 A substantial evidence of the intel lectual worth of Oklahomans generally is the number of modern daily news papers which they support. Further more, they have good schools, libra ries and churches.
 Oklahoma has modern public school system supported by the in- come from a s35,O00,000 public school fund and local taxation. The 5,000,- 900 fund" consists of 3,100875 acres of iand, valued at $30,000,00 the in- come from the rental of which amounts to about s600,000 per year; and s5,000,000 paid into the school fund by Indian Territory in lieu of land, all of the 3,10O,S75 acres being
 
 The original act opening Oklahoma territory to settlement reserved in all that section of the territory then thrown open sections 16 and 36 in every township for the benefit of the public schools of the future state. Each successive act provided for simi- lar reservations and the statehood en- abling act made additional grants to the higher educational institutions, re- sulting in the big total above named. The state will decide whether the school lands shall be sold. All pro- ceeds from sale of the school lands must be turned into the school fund and forever remain intact.

tains about 150 coal mines, employing about 10000 operators.
 The principal rivers of Oklahoma, east, are, naming them from north to south, Arkansas, Salt Fork, Cimarron, North Canadian, South Canadian. Wachita and Red.
 The government acquired what Is now Oklahoma more than a century ago under the terms of the Louisiana Purchase. Early in the century the government set this land apart for the segregation of the various Indian tribes, then being driven west by the advance of white settlers. Hence, while Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, Ne braska, Colorado and other Louisiana Purchase states were being populated, Oklahoma remained for 80 years a wild Indian camping ground.
 At the time of the opening all of Oklahoma. except that portion taken from Texas in the Greer county bound ary dispute and the narrow strip be- tween Kansas and Texas, extending to the Colorado and New Mexico lines, was included in the Indian Territory. Oklahoma territory, which was held by the government for the use of the Indians, but had never been assigned to any tribe, consequently consisted in those days of only about 2,000,000 acres. There occurred the first great rush for homes, which brought into existence Oklahoma City. From time to time the government transferred other portions of land from the Indian Territory to Oklahoma territory for settlement by whites, until, when the Oklahoma Indian Territory statehood bill passed, all that remained of h. dian Territory were the reservations of the Choctaw, Chickasaw, Chero- kee, Creek, Seminole and Quapaw tribes.
