is A GOOD HUNTER.



d. c. Nellis. one of the proprietors
of the Columbia hotel. will go down in
history as the greatest duck hunter
in the country In company with one,
Uhl France, Mr.. Nellis went to Barr,
Colo, last Friday on a huting trip, re
turning Sunday. They returned with
one lone duck and their stories are
somewhat conflicting as to which one
belongs the honor of having shot the
trophy. Mr. France claims Mr., Nellis
bought 1t, while Mr.. Nellis claims ne
killed seventy-fve at one shot but
that the other seventy-four went to
the bottom of the lake.
II is also stated by persons in a
position 10 know, that Mr. Nellis used
up one thousand pounds of powder in
landing the one duck, besides running
a narrowed hunting suit, and losing
mis- hat. After securing the duck (uo
matter whether he shot it or bought
iu he went through an Indian two
step which attracted the attention Of
the police department of the little
city and Mr.. Neville, his partner. had
to vouch for his sanity by telegram
before the authorities would allow
him to leave.
The duck will be mounted and
placed in the lobby of the hotel bu.
as Mr. Nellis is somewhat sensitive
as to his ability as a marksman tn"
writer would suggest that his friends
avoid the duck subject as much rs
possible when talking to him.

Local Insurance Men Discount Reports Of
Embarrassment

II was the general opinion yesterday among local
insurance men that persons who were insured in
the London Lloyds had for anxiety be-
cause of the reported embarrassment of certain
derwrtters in the historic British association. The
local agents had news from the home office bear
ing the subject but rdicued the idea that there
was any serious financial trouble.
Lloyds, of London, is association OF more than
six hundred underwriters, each of whom pays IN
s25,0oo when he is admitted to membership. These
underwriters in turn divided into groups with
memberships Of from ten to twenty. Each group
has its 'attorneys,' agents. who write business
for it. Each member accepts q certain part Of
every risk and is individually liable for his part
but not liable for his fellow underwriters.
One of these groups which has written consider
able American business, has been rather hard hit
recently by heavy fire losses, and this fact rise
to the reports In the past the other underwriters
have always rendered any assistance needed, and it
is practically certain that other groups will help
out in the present case, provided assistance be
needed which is not likely.

PAYMENTS ANTICIPATED.
Knickerbocher Trust Co. ahead of
Time zgith It's DepOsit0rs.

The directors of the Knickerbocker Trust Com
pany decided yesterday to anticipate the four1n
and fifth payments of per cent each to the de-
posftors. The two instaments will be paid on
August 20. Under the resumption plan they were
not due until December 26. 1908. and February 26
1907 respectively The two preceding install
nents were also anticipated by the trust company
and with the 10 per cent paid at the opening, the
depositors on August 20 will have received 30 per
cent of the 20 per cent of their deposits which
under the terms of the resumption plan they were
TO receive in per cent fnstalments at intervals
covering a period Of two and one-half years.
For the remaining 80 per cent Of their deposits
Il may be remembered. the depositors received
surplus certificates bearing per cent interest
payable sen-annually out Of the net earnings Of
the company. These certificates are to be retired
out Of the net earnings and surplus provided that
in event the latter is reduced below 5000 900
The KnickerbocSer Trust Company has made
remarkable progress since IL reopened its doors
March Is last, and II is expected that the
naming fnstaments will be anticipated before
they become due. and that soon thereafter the
company will be in position to pay off the
plus certificates.
