on the 18th day of May. 1908. An
examination made August 81, 1909,

unsatisfactory condition, showing an
unwarranted expense ratio. The prin-

the salaries paid were extravagant
and too many of them for the amount
of business being produced The
president and secretary resigned and
a new management came into control.
We believe that the new Officers are

REFUSED To
PAY LOCAL MAN

sig. Olsen, a Grand Junction
man, formerly in the railway
service, now living on his ranch
near Glenwood. and who was
injured in the horrible Dotsero
wreck last January, has had
costly experience with fraternaI
insurance company, according
to the bulletin just issued by
W. l.. Clayton, state commission
cr of insurance. The commits
sioner takes "A rap at several
companies. Copies of this bull
letin, Just issued, were received
by The Sentinel today. Here are
some of the interesting and inn
portant statements:
Conductors Indemnity Exchange
of Kansas City: Many inquiries,
mostly from railroad men, have come
to the department about this organ
ization. II il is operating in Colo
RADIO IL is doing so without authority
of law, having failed to comply with
the requirements of the secretary of
states office or this department. The
public is warned against insuring in
it, as our courts and the insurance
department can afford its policyhold-
ers no protection.
Railway Conductors Protective
Associations: This order bears the
same relation to Colorado as does the
Conductors Indemnity Exchange of
Kansas City-an outlaw repudiating
its Just obligations, as evidenced by
n case recently submitted to the de
partment The public is warned.
Fraternal Order of Railway Men:
Sig. Olsen, an engineer of the Denver
& Rio Grande Railroad company. was
injured in the Dotsero wreck last
January. He carried a $4,000 policy
in this order, under the terms of
which he was to receive $4,000 n
week benefits in case of accident. The
order was promptly notified of the
accident and the weekly indemnity
demanded. This was refused, the
order taking the position that he was
in arrears at the time of his injury.
After repeated written demands for
satisfactory adjustment of his claim.
Mr.. Olsen submitted the case to the
department. From a careful investi-
cation of the numerous correspond
ence, receipts and papers, We found
th.d the policy was in good standing
at tSe time he was injured. We noti-
fled the order by mail on November
Is and received no reply. Then on
December II registered letter was
sent and received by the order, evil
denced by the return registry card.
This met the same fate as the first
one and remains unanswered. Under
the law governing organizations of
this character. the department is pow
erless to afford Mr.. Olsen any assist
ance in the enforcement of his claim.
statement of his case, however, we
trust, will serve as a warning to the
public and avoid like experiences.
Commonwealth Life Insurance
Company: This company, on the 2Sth
day of September, 1909, was granted
n certificate for the sale of stock, and
agreed to furnish the department with
copies OF all the literature used by it
in that connection. So far 1t has
failed to keep its agreement. Other
companies organizing in our state in
a similar manner have promptly COM
piled with this requirement of the
department. The public should be
aware of a company that refuses to
disclose to the insurance department
the methods employed by 1t in the
sale of its capital stock, even though

 "The first We knew of the killing was a report which spread around town that Jesse James was dead" said Mir Flanders. For months reports had been coming in almost daily that he had been killed or captured in this or that part of the country, but we paid little attention to them I stepped to the front door and looked at the big house on the bluff where the man we had known as MT. How ard had lived. The hill looked like an anthill with men swarming up it's sides from all directions.
 Before I could start for the scene two men came into the telegraph of fee. They were the Ford boys. Charley kept nervously pacing up and down, pulling his little black mustache, while Bob started laboriously filling out a blank. He was having considerable trouble with it and I said to him:
 Shall l write it for you?
 q can write it myself, all right, he growled
 "He wrote out two telegrams. One was addressed to the governor and simply said: We've got our man. The other was to the chief of police ot CoiI man; will bring the body
 "As I took them Bob Ford pulled out a revolver at least eighteen inches long, broke it and dropped out an empty shell on the floor. The bullet from 1t had killed Jesse James. I was young then and inquisitive and deter. mined to find out who was shot.
 Have some trouble, up on the hill?' I said
 "'Yes,' he vouehsafed.
 "'Anybody hurt?' I insisted.
 Killed man, that's all,' he re. piled.
 By that time Charley had nerv- ously edged Bob as far as the front door.
 "'Who was it?' I shouted.
 GA horse thief who got gay growled Bob If any answer comes to the telegram send 1t to us. We'll be uptown
 q was too excited to get any more definite address than 'Uptown,' and the two went out and gave themselves up to the police. They told their story and an undertaken went up the hill and took the body to his shop. At 4 D. m., when it was laid out in state and he opened the doors, everybody for miles around was waiting to pass through and see it.
 That was the last seen of the Ford boys around there. They took the re. ward and went west, where Bob was shot in a dance hall, possibly by some revengeful member of the old gang, and Charley committed suicide, both a few months later"

BOY TORTURED BY ECZEMA

When my boy was six years old, he suffered terribly with eczema. He could neither sit still nor lie quietly in bed, for the itching was dreadful. He would irritate spots by scratching with his nails and that only made them worse. doctor treated him and we tried almost everything, but the eczema seemed to spread. It started in a small place on the lower extremities and spread for two years until it very nearly covered the back part of his leg to the knee.
 Finally 1 got Cuticura Soap, Cuti- cura Ointment and Cuticura Pills and gave them according to directions. I used them in tue morning and that 1 used them again and the improve ment even in those few hours was sur prising, the inflammation seemed to be so much less. I used two boxes of Cuticura Ointment, the same of the Pills and the Soap and my boy was cured. My son is now in his sev- enteenth year and he has never had return of the eczema
 T took care of friends child that had eczema on it's face and limbs and I used the Cuticura Soap and Ointment They acted on the child just as they did on my son and it has never re- turned. I would recommend the Cuti- cura Remedies to anyone. Mrs. A. J. Cochran, 1923 Columbia Ave-, Phila- delphia, Pa, Oct. 20, 1909.'

trailing fringe of green and white leafed vinca vine drapes down a foot or more around the edges of each.
 The flowers and vines are planted in wire baskets, semi-circular in shape, so that two just fill each urn. When the flowers in one lose their fragrance it is to be replaced immediately by another. A sufficient number of bas- kets are being tended by gardener so that fresh flowers always will be in the uYns. The flowers were chosen be- cause of their ability to withstand the sun and winds, and it is not expected to be necessary to replace the baskets more than three or four times in the summer. The insides of the iron urns are lined with moss to protect the roots from the heat of the metal.
 The idea to have the flowers on the poles was obtained from public build ings in Europe by Henry c. Flower, president of the Fidelity Trust com. pany.

Washington.-Sec of War Dickinson is off on a trip that will take him around the world. Several years ago William H. Taft, while the head of the war department, made such a voyage and it came to be known as the Cupid voyage" At least two weddings resulted from that long jaunt, that of Miss Alice Roose- velt and Representative Nicholas Longworth being among them. In this trip of Secretary Dickinson's, however, the party consists mostly of married folk
 The objective point of Secretary Dickinson's trip is the Philippine islands, where he will spend five weeks familiarizing himself with con- ditions there.

 A story which Mrs Zurulda Samuel, mother of the James boys, tells to many visitors to her farm near here is the shooting of Jesse James by his cousin. Bob" Ford An interesting description of that occurrence is given by c. K. Flanders, one of the leading merchants of the town.
 At the time of the shooting Mr. Flanders was a young man and the only telegraph operator in St. Joe, Mo, where it occurred. He sent the first message to the outside world, tell ing of the occurrence. Jesse James, with his wife and two traitor cousins, Bob" and Charley Ford, were living there. A reward of $5,OO0 had been of fered by the governor for the outlaw, dead or alive. The story of how James when asked that fatal morning by his wife to hang picture in the

A little different is the English method of using homemade cloth balls to remove grease. Moisten a half pound of dry fuller's earth in a little lemon juice. Add a half ounce of finely pulyerized pearl ash and work 1t into thick paste. Boil into small balls and dry in the sun or near the fire. In few hours they will be ready for use. When needed moisten the spot with warm water and rub with the balls. Place in the sun to dry and then brush off the powder or wash if necessary.
