THE NEW INSU TRANCE AGENT.
He Comes in With the New Law-PauI
Morton on His Opportunity.

The new insurance law of the State
of New York has opened up a promis-
ing field for both men and women
with brains and energy in the sale of
life insurance. The law now provides
standard forms of policies, each of
which practically bears the hall mark
Of the State of New York, and this new
order of things has established the
sale of life. insurance on a correct
basis.
The prohibition against rebating and
extrayagant allowances to agents has
driven out of the business the old
type of insurance agent, who in many
cases virtually bought business, with
large rebates, instead of selling it.
His place is being taken by profess
sors, lawyers school teachers of both
sexes, and others, who find that being
a life insurance agent under the new
system offers greater reward than
their previous vocatiOns. The law has
reduced commissions but all of the
Life insurance is something that
everyone needs and under the pres
ent system it's sale is being conducted
with becoming dignity and propriety.
Paul Morton, president of the Equita-
BILE Life Assurance Society, has taken
the lead in building up an agency or
ganization that is in keeping with the
demands of public sentiment, and the
standard he has set for his company.
He says: 1--WE want new agents, both
men and women, but none except en-
ergetic, able and truthful people need
apply. For such there is a splendid
opportunity"
Mr.. Morton's policy of injecting new
and vigorous blood into the agency
force of the Society is meeting with
success in all parts of the country.

SAHARA GROWING DRYER.
French Observer Says the Gases Arc
Shrinking and Will Disappear

G. f. Gautier, a French explorer is
authority for the statement that the
Sahara is continuously becoming drier
to such an extent that the GASES are
perceptibly drying up and will disap-
pear altogether in a relatively short
time. He quotes historic records and
physical signs to show that springs
were at one time more plentiful than
now, and that the extent of the
patches where vegetation f1ourishes
were much greater even SO to 100
years ago.
AS the climate of the region has I'M
dergone no change in perhaps thou
sands OF years, he believes that the
disappearance of the water must be
due to purely mechanical causes. He
considers that it is due to the con-
t1nual advance of the great sand
masses to the north, thus forming an
impenetrable barrier against the wa
tershed Of the Atlas mountains.-N Y.

KNITTING MACHINE ROMANCE.
Invented That a Tilted Lover Might
Have His Revenge.

Romance may certainly figure in
many of the knitted waistcoats and
gorgeous stockings worn by our I'm
dergraduates of to-day, but these have
not so romantic an origin as the first
Of these articles produced in this
country.
For tradition has it that William
Lee, who in the sixteenth century in
vented the knitting frame on which
both stockings and waistcoats were
produced mechanically, was driven to
this piece of ingenuity by the cruel
fiouting of the lady he loved, who hap
pened to be a stocking knitter
Enraged at his failure to make an
impression on her heart, he sought to
make it on her purse by killing her
means of livelihood; and one is glad
to read that all stocking makers COM
bined to Illustrate his cruel purpose,
with the result that he fed with his
invention to France, where he finally
died Of a broken heart, whether for
love Of his lady or Of his spoiled in
vention, tradition does not say.-Lon-
don Chronicle.

"Tainted Money! No New Thinu.

Nay, nay, nay!' said the arch
bishop, waving white, jeweled hand
as the chief began to divulge some of
his larger plans. Tell me not of thy
wicked schemes! Thy methods / must
condemn utterly, but if thou bringest
me the money, well, I can at least see
to it that it be not used for bad pur-
poses. And speaking of money, we
need for the walls of the apse a hun
dred bags of gold. Dost think thou
couldst manage it?'
Ay,' said the Gentle Robber, and
that night he despoiled nine men,
killing three that resisted longest, for
he was a great lover of holy church,
and a devout believer, nor could she
ask of him any service that he would
not perform. THE Gentle Robber,"

called at the office of The Evening

hands with the reporter who yester-
day wrote the interview with Mrs.
Wong which the badly beaten morn

about sensationalsm, etc. He was
pleased and happy and said so. The

to create a sensation, but to serve
the public with what it wanted to

v. f. GARRISON GETS
LAS VEGAS JOB
LEAVES PRINCIPALSHIP OF THE
SANTA FE HIGH SCHOOL To
ACCEPT PRESIDENCY OF THE
MEADOW CITY NORMAL.

Much satisfaction is expressed in
territorial educational circles and
among Las Vegas people over the APP
pointment of DR. w. r.. Garrison, OF
Santa Fe, to the presidency of the
Normal university at Las Vegas. The
choice was made at q meeting of the
board of trustees held on Wednesday
afternoon. The new president will
assume the important duties of the
position on August 1st, and with that
purpose i'm view will move with his
family from the capital some time
during the summer. Prof. f.. j.
Vert. whom DIR. Garrison succeeds,
and who resigned as president of the
university several months ago, has
agreed to conduct the summer school
so that no halt in the regular pro-
gram of the institution will ensue
upon the change.
The new president comes TO his
duties with an enviable record and II
splendid equipment. He graduated
from Yale college with the degree OF
b. 5. at the age of 10. receiving
few years later from the University
of Chicago the degree Of Phi. D., in
recognition of his efficient services at
that institution as an assistant in
structor IN history. Later he became
a correspon dent for one of the St
Louis papers and i'm that capacity
spent some time in travelling upon
the continent of Europe. After two
years of service as n member of the
faculty of Butler university at Indian
apolis, DIR. Garrison became president
of that important institution, which
appointment he only gave up on ac-
count of poor health. Recently he
has beer GCting as principal of the
high school al Santa F2.
That tn: Norma university will
continue II Waintan Its high reputa
tiCn under the nov president IS freely
predicted ty all those acquainted with
the facts
