GENEROUS CONCESSIONS.
Made by Metropolitan Life to the
Policy Holders.

Policy Holders.
1t has been made known in the
latest published statements of the
Metropolitan Life Insurance Company
that all full-life policy-holders in the
industrial department who reached the
age of 70 In 1906, and all who reach
that age in 1907, are to have their
policies continued for life without
further payment of premiums. 1t is
further provided that any one holding
a full-life Industrial policy which has
been in force fifteen years will at the
age of so receice the amount of the
policy in cash.
Perhaps no former act of this com.
pany is so significant as this yolun-
tary generosity toward aged policy-
holders from whom II can expect no
compromising relations in lie future.
1t Is stated that this concession alone
costs the company more than a mil.
lion dollars. ANY similar gift, Qor 1t
IS purely voluntary gifD, by an in
diyidual would cause the donor to be
widely proclaimed as leader in phil
anthropical work. 1t Will not go en-.
trely unrecognized because it eman-
ates fromsa Corporation
Further concessions made by the
Metropolitan Life Insurance Company
during 1906 affect their younger poll
cy-holdcrs, and have taken the shape
OF voluntary cash dividends upon In.
dustrial nolicios--dividends not prom.
ised nor implied in the policies, not
bargained for, hoped for, or expected
by those who receive them This is
an item of something like two nillion
OF dollars, making the total voluntary
concessions during the year mare
than three millions.

Sudden Death OF korsts Spear.

News came Tuesday to Mrs. b. +. Her
rick of the sudden death In Boston Mon
day night of her brother, 5. Kozsta
Spear, who had returned to that city after
two weeks stay here only the day pre-
vious, departing in apparently the most
robust health and high spirits. His
brother, c. l.. Spear, of Brattleboro went
TO Boston and accompanied the remains
here yesterday.
II appears that Monday, while riding
in a street car on Washington street, Bos-
ton, Mr.. Spear was seized with an attack
of epilepsy, said to be his first one, and
fell, striking his head with such force as
to fracture his skull. He was taken TO a
hospital and rallied sufficiently to express
the opinion that he would soon be .'all
right" but he died in few hours.
Samuel kozsta Spear, son of Samuel
and Lucy Spear, was born in Braintree,
being 81 years of age at his death.
When about i6, he went TO Massachusetts,
and made his home in that state the rest
of his life. For about 20 years he was a
member of the police force of Boston.
Having fine physique, good carriage
and courage, he made fine policeman.
Nine years ago he became janitor OF the
Massachusetts, Hospital Life Insurance
building, which position he held until
his death. He visited Randolph and
Braintree each yaer, and had MANY
friends in both towns. One brother tnd
one sister, above named, are his near rela.
tiyes surviving.
The funeral will be held this afternoon
at 3 O'Clock from Mrs. B. F. Herrick's
