The fourth aero. under Captain

the scene was almost a duplicate Of
that enacted at the second assault.
In every case Payton was careful to

SPECIAL SESSION
OF THE m. ". A.
RATE QUESTION WILL BE CON-
SlDERED AT MEETING TO BE
HELD IN CHICAGO IN
JANUARY.

The head camp of the Modern
Woodmen of America, held last week
i'm Buffalo, adjourned to convene in
Chicago on the second Tuesday of
January for the purpose of readjust-
ing the insurance rates. All of the
head officers and standing committees
and delegates who met in Buffalo were
instructed To attend the Chicago meet
ing, which will probably be the moS
important session that the society has
ever held, as the rate question has
been very generally discussed among
the head camp officials and the more
active members for several years.
The special session of the head
camp was recommended by the execu-
tive council and a resolution author
i2ing the meeting was adopted by a
unanimous vote of the head camp
which was attended by more than SOC
delegates.
1t seemed to be the opinion of the
society officials at Buffalo that a read
iustment of the rates was absolutely
necessary before the QeXt triennial
meeting. in order to meet the de-
mands of the legislative bodies in the
several states in which the society is
doing business. During the past yeai
bills were introduced i'm a number of
the legislatures in an attempt to reg
hlate fraternal insurance rates, but in
nearly all Of the states they were de-
foated. The bill proposed In the Mich
igan legislature was acceptable to the
officials of the Modern Woodmen. but
some of the other societies opposed ii
strongly.
Prior 10 the Chicago meeting the Of
ficials viii submit several plans for the
consideration of the delegates. and il is
intended that the rates decided upon
viii be maintained for am indefinite
period. I'm an address before the con-
vention in Buffalo. former Head Consu,
w. \. Northcott strongly advocated a
REIMBURSEMENT of the rates, declaring
that the time had arrived when this
step was absolutely necessary i'm or
der to insure the societys perpetuity.
Mr.. Northcott did not offer any sug-
ecstions as To what plan he consid-
cred advisable for the head camp to
adopt, but he declared that this is too
great question TO be decided upon
hastily.
II is quite certain that the rates of
insurance, which are now especially
low, will be raised, as the mortuary
table submitted o. the head camp by
the executive council shows that some
of the members are not paying what
their insurance costs. The law COM
mittce of the society recommended
that twelve assessments be collected
hereafter in each year, but i'm view of
the fact that the rates are To be read.

Miners to Be Eliminated.
Upon recommendation of the law
committee, the head camp decided to
hereafter eliminate miners from the
membership list. Prior 10 six years
ago miners and other underground
worllmen were not admitted To mem

occupation.

from some of the western states, and
particularly Colorado, made such a
hard fight i'm the interest of miners.
that il was decided TO accept them as
insurance members.
The officials presented a statement
at the Buffalo meeting, showing that
the society lost considerably over
I,000,000 in the past three years

the fact that miners paid an extra fee
over and above their regular rate
