PROTECTS THE POLICYHOLDERS
\ OF THE SOUTHERN LIFE

Tue jefferson Standard Life Insur-
ance Company Comes to Their
Rescue.
Fayetteville, n. c., March 81, 1909.
Today was consummated one of the
most important deals that has ever
occurred in the annals Of Southern In
surance The Jefferson Standard
Life Insurance Company of Raleigh,
n. c., came to the rescue of the policy
holders of the Southern Life Insur-
ancc Company of Fayetteville, and
guaranteed to them that their insur-
ance would be protected by the large
assets of the jefferson. 1t has been
known for some time that the South
en Life would re-insure its policies,
several flattering offers were made by
large companies throughout the coun-
try to obtain this business, but the
directors of the company, looking to
the interest of the policy holders, and
knowing the strength and standing of
the Jefferson, selected it, after mature
elaboration.
In 'effecting this reinsurance and
protecting the policy holders, the
Jefferson Standard Life Insurance is
in no way directly or indirectly con-
nected with any transaction Of the
Southern Life. The policy holders of
the Southern Life Insurance Com
pany are to be congratulated upon
their good fortune in having their life
insurance policies guaranteed by the
Jefferson, which is one Of the strongest,
if not the strongest life insurance
company south Of the Mason and
Dixon Line, and one of the strongest
in America. 1t has a surplus to policy
holders Of nearly half million dol
lars. 1t is well managed, conserva-
tive, and is backed by some of the
most prominent fnanciers in the
South.
The officers Of the Jefferson
are Joseph G. Brown, president; P.
D. Gold, Jr., first vice-president and
general manager; Chas. W. Gold, Sec
rotary and superintendent of agen-
cies; Chas. w. Gamwell actuary;
Ex-Governor Chas. B. Aycock and
Judge R. w. Winston were special
counsel for the Jefferson in making
the transfer Of the business. The re-
insurance agreement was fully ap-
proved by James r. Young Insurance
Commissioner of North Carolina.

New York City.-Never before in
the history of the State Of New York
have there been so many criminals
behind prison bars as there are at
present. The State prisons are over
crowded, the penitentiaries filled to
OVERCOMING and the warehouses so
congested that the inmates are in
each others way.
Prison officials and criminologists
assign two reasons for the crowded
condition of the penal institutions
the hard times prevalent for the last
two years and the influx of undesira-
BILE aliens to the big cities of the
State. Unable to obtain work these
men drift to crime and eventually
land in prison.
Sing Sing Overcrowded.
There are more than 1000 convlcts
IN Sing Sing Prison, originally built
to house but 1900; the prisoners are
doubled up in cells, lodged in out
houses and the chapels and some are
said to sleep in the main office of the
prison. In order TO accommodate
the horde Of convicted men recently
sent from this city-and they have
been going in weekly patches OF
score or more-Warden Frost has
been compelled to place cots in the
beautifully decorated Protestant and
Catholic chapels.
A batch OF sixty-hve was trans
ferred to Clinton Prison against the
protest Of the officials of that institu-
tion, who say they have no room to
spare. Numbers Of Sing Sing con-
,victs-short term men-in order to
make room for the new arrivals, are
sent daily to the site of the new
prison now being constructed on the
west bank of the Hudson, near Iona
Island, and kept there in shacks I'M
der the watch OF Keepers. These men
are employed in the building of the
new structure.
THE same condition is reported by
the warden OF the penitentiary on
Blackwell's Island. The census there
recently showed 1119 men and eigh-
ty-three women IN cells. This is far
above the average census, and the
rate at which the courts are sending
prisoners there has alarmed the peni-
Tertiary officials. They are in a
quandary where 10 conine the prison
ers. AS in Sing Sing, the problem OF
employing all the convicts is puzzling

steps are being taken 90 put a number

the city and used for city purposes.
Reports from the Elmira Reforma-
tory state that that institution is
overcrowded, and transfers are being
made daily to the upstate penal in
situations in order to relieve the over
crOwding.
Most of the Elmira recruits come
from this city, and with the six
Courts Of General Sessions working
daily the number Of youths committed
TO the reformatory weekly from this
county averages TWENTY-FIVE. An av-
erage OF ten a week are committed
there from the Brooklyn criminal
courts. A batch Of seventeen was
transferred from the Tombs recently

CHILD ATE cUTICURA

A New York friend of Cuticura writes:
my three year old son and heir, after
being put to bed on a trip across the At

Gated a box Of graham crackers and a box

made for the box, it was found empty and
the kid admitted that he had eaten the
contents of the entire box spread on the
crackers. II cured him of bad cold and

peace and safety" The order send
ing Thaw back to Mattaewan will
be signed this week. There was no
crumb of comfort for Thav in the
1000 word opinion handed down by
Justice Mills. All the contentious
of his old adversary, Jerome, are
upheld. and II Is declared Thav is
still insane, suffering from persist

neiac as on the day he shot White.
Thaw received the news with OUT
ward calmness that appeared more
forced that real. Justice Mills *
pressed his deep sorrow for the
prisoners mothef and recommend
ed. evidently for that sympathy,
that Thaw be granted greater priv
legeges at Mattaewan.
Mrs. Thaw in a statement the
other day declares that the decision
Is In no sense a victory for Jerome,
that every prop was taken from un-
der "thas arrogant vindictive prose-
cutor of a sane acquitted man."
She says that when he arose to make
his closing argument he had more
the app 'arance Of a schoolboy CON-
PEELED to say his piece than OF a man
who dominates the courts Of his own
judicial district. She declares that
Justice Mills decision Is a mystery.

Hightower said that matters were not in such serious shape as had at first been supposed and he be- lieved that the offices both here and at Tucson would be re-opened within a course of two or three days.
 Mir. O'Brien, whose illness caused the suspension. was still ill on the ar rival of NIT. Hightower at Tucson. but he thought he would be able to be at his offices by Monday. There is no uneasiness among the patrons of the firm there and no action had been taken by them leading to the suspension which was purely volun- tary. There has been no appointment of a receiver, but MT. O'Brien himself put matters into the hands of a law yer
 MT. HiEhtower said that there was no probability that any of the patrons of the firm either in Phoenix or else where would lose a dollar. The senti- ment among the patrons at Tucson is that MT. O'Brien himself is better able to straighten matters out than any one they could name.
