A Test Case

Testimony was taken Wednesday before
Vice Chancellor Walker in the action
brought by Hamlet Poole, of Burlington,
to test the right of the Supreme Circle,
Brotherhood of America, to raise the price
of insurance on old contracts in the order,
and argument on the testimony will be
held some time In January.
Those who testified were Secretary
Walter and his assistant, Mr.. Ruhl, of the
order; Actuary Dawson, of New York and
Paul Throckmorton, a prominent officer
of the organization. Their testimony was
confined to the facts In the case and these
facts were raised in the suit when Mr..
Poole fled 1t for the 1900 members who
objected to haYing their insurance rates
raised.
According to these facts, Mr.. Poole
Joined the order many years ago. at which
time the Supreme Circle, as 1t now does.
held fund out of which death benefits
are paid. At that time, and up to last
March, the rate of insurance charged to
Mr.. Poole and to other members of the
order was so cents a month for $500 OF
insurance. Last March the Grand Circle
raised the rate so per cent. on the plea
that the order could not exist permanent
ly unless the additional rate was paid in.
This meant that those holding $500 worth
of insurance had to pay In 80 cents cents a
month instead of so cents.
There are 5000 members of this order in
this state and the testimony of Mr.. Poole
also taken Wednesday, tended to show that
1900 members objected to the raise in the
rates.
The testimony of the officers was con-
fined to the plain facts as raised by Mr..
Poole regarding the raise in rates and the
right of the organization to raise those
rates. The actuary confined his testimony
to figuring out where the organization
would land If the rates were not raised,
this being the contention of the officers
and the actuaries that the increasing num-
Der of men getting along in years. and
consequently the increase in the number
of deaths, demanded the increase.

CHESTNUT STREET THEATRE.


"a Midnight Bell'' is one of Charles
Hoyt's clever comedy dramas dealing with
rural life in Northern New England, and
it can be Justly claimed to be the biggest
success of any of Hoyt's works. 1t will
be at the Chestnut Street Theatre, Phila-
de1phia, this week. The intent of this
play is to picture certain striking features
of rural life in Yankee land, and certain
types of characters. The play is in four
acts and the time is the present. The
plot deals with a mysterious robbery of
certain bonds from the town bank. In
vo1ved in this unraveling of the hidden
facts are Squire Olcott, president of the
bank; Stephen Labaree, cashier of the
bank, and Napier Keene, a lawyer from
the city. We also have in the little circle
of our acquaintance John Bradbury, the
young minister, who is the most eligible
man in town in the eyes of Lizzie Weber,
the elderly miss, but just as spry as ever,
then we have Deacon Tidd, the local Poo
Bah; Martin Trip, the bad boy of the
town; Nora Fairford, the school-ma am,
and several other town notables, who
lend their peculiarities to make the will
age one of the first water in the eyes of
the author looking for queer ones. The
greatest amount of care will be given to
the scenic effects, which promise to be
decidedly picturesque, with the school
house and yard, with children romping
and playing in the snow, others coasting
down the hill and snowballing one another
Then the schoolroom scene is one not to
be forgotten, when Deacon Tidd comes in
to look over the children and take advan-
tage of an invitation to say few words to
them. His speech goes somewhat like
this: "I'm allus glad to see children in
school, cause it keeps 'em out'n mischief
and other peoples back yards. Study
hard and learn what's practical-stick to
the three R's-readin', 'ritin' and 'rith-
metic-and yen grow up to be good citi-
zens." Outside of this exceptionally good
comedy element, we witness several very
pretty love affairs that keep up the interest
because of the determination of Dan Gu
pid to have all hands guessing until the
last minute.
