The Raising sf Lseenses Causes tke State Lafe rnsnranee Conpany
 Te AbAnaen This

That the raising of licenses for fire and life insurance companies to do bus mess in certain localities will react in the insurance company quitting the field or raising the rates for the risk. is to be seen by the statement in In- surance Commissioner Frank N. Ju- lfan's office The State Life insurance Company filed formal notice of quitting the Statss
 This insurance company is known as one of the strongest doing business in the State, and it is expected that other companies will follow suit at an early date. In the letter on file In Commis- sioner Julfans' office the reasons for quitting the State are given as the ex- cessive municipal licenses in the cities of Mobile. Montgomery and Dothan
 Insurance journals for the month car ry notices that 8 company in Dothan has raised rates 50 cents on mercantile risks and 20 cents on residential risks while company at Mobile announces increased rates of 20 cents on mercan. tile risks, and 1s cents on dwellings,. The reason. is stated in the insurance Journal. Is the ''exhorbitRnt tax of s40o which has been made on all fire insur- ance companies doing business thsre.s
 The journal also announces that twn large companies have taken up tn sfr agencies in Mobile. but as yet Commits stoner Julian has received no ofacfai Information of the fact.
 Since the enactment of the general prohibition law. the rnunicipalitfes feel ing the loss of revenue from the na- loon most. have instituted raise on all insurance companies doing a business fin the municipality. As result of this additional license tax. several agencies have been withdrawn from a particu@ lar locality, or the number Of agents iessened in a given territory.

 Whether the name Mccoy was the right one given by the men who an- swered Captain Smith. cannot be learned, because of the witnesses the negroes produced It was the inten- ton of the police to hold them for further investigation, but the habeas corpus proceedings have opened the doors Of the jail and the. officials have to begin their work all over again.

BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTES PAID
 T0FAMOUS FRENCH ACTOR

Paris. Jan. 2s.-The best known men and women in French art. science and literature, gathered today at Port aux Danes, a little village near St. Ger main. to render their last homages of the famous French actor. Benoit-Con- stant Coquelin. who died January 2T.
 The body lay in the retreat for aged actors. founded by the munifeence of M. Coouelin and beneath the shadow of a statue of Molire. Special trains were run from Paris and other points. Ed mond Rostand, bereft of his noble friend. was there plunged in profound melancholy and Is dnconsolable.
 Among the others was a saddened group of actors and actresses with whom Coqueiin had won his most cele- nrated triumph. MT. Claretie, of The- atre Fransaise, who had seen Coquelin grow into greatness; Paul De Rouiede. Coquelin's inseparable friend and a score or more of aged actors who had been gathered to pay their last re- spects.
 M. CoqueIn's body was laid out in e simple comm in the salon of the home, which had been transformed in- to mortnary chapel. The crest of the Coquelin family. a tall palm. in flow CTS. reposed on the cofifn.

 There is one community, however. which can show. for almost every man. q pol1-tax receipts. For in Capitol Heights there is an election on Mon day, the first of the history of the town of Capitol Heights. The little bunch of Capitol Helghtsmen stand as a model to the citizen. For 1t is said by one Of theirsnumber. that they have become imbned with the spirit of citi- zeuship, and urged one another to pay the tax, and register. The street-car men, who run to Capitol Heights, talk ing the citizens of the newiy-made town. back and forth. have caught the spirit. they say, and are as zeaious for a good showing at the first poll of the town on Monday.

 But beyond ths instance, the poll. tax is coming slow. The. rest of the county folks. less fortunate than the Capitol Hsigts residents. havesno eiee- ton to spur them on, and hence are Elistiess.
