LARGE ANNUAL DISBURSEMENT
Steady and Substantial Growth Shown
BY Sixty first Annual Report Of Union
Mutual Life.

By steady and substantial advances
the Union Mutual Life Insurance Co,
OF Portland Me-. is increasing the
long establshed prosperity that has
attended it's business. The 6lst annual
report printed today contains facts OF
large interest to those who are familiar
with the development of this well
known home institution. the annual in
come of which has grown to be nearly
$4,000, 900. with yearly disbursements
to policyholders now about $4,000
During 1910 the assets increased
more than $l,000,000 and $220.0
represent the gain in surplus, all of
this growth coming about in year
which was not remarkable for any
particular general business prosperity,
but which has. in some quarters, been
considered rather an unsatisfactory
period. For long time this institu-
ton under the leadership of President
Fred E. Richards has been one of the
most prominent financial institutions
in the State, and the progress that is
being made with uninterrupted regu-
larity indicates that it will continue
to hold that important position.
1t is interesting to observe further
that the new insurance placed upon
the lives of Maine people showed quite
an increase. which is precisely as it
ought to be. eXemplfying the doctrine
of reciprocity, for the Union Mutual
has more than s6,000.000 of its funds
invested in Maine securities and en-
terprises. and constantly manifests a
Willingness to assist III the develop
ment of the State. Ii has forceful
claims for the patronage of Maine peo-
pie who contemplate insuring their
lives.

THE RATCHET BURIED
After Lively Meeting of the kennebec
Central Driving Club.

II has been common talk, that the
members of the Kennebcc Central
Driving Club were at loggerheads,
were jealousspf each other, sore at each
other and acting very much more ike
small boys than full grown men.
As time rolled on and the silver
cups. for which they are racing, were
won. by this one and that one, some
times won by fair means and some
times by foul. the trouble has increas-
ed. The growing grew louder and the
membership of the club corresponding
ly lessened.
Matters arrived at such state, that
a house cleaning and a heart to hedrt
talk became absolutely necessary and
that is just what took place Monday
night.
Fifteen of the members were pres
cnt--the speeches of w. 5. Malcolm,
] NJ Nichols, II. II. Lee and one or
two others. were SO interesting that
the meeting did not break up until T.
o'clock.
The silver cups Chat have been the
innocent cause of all the troublc) are
permanently disposed of. j. Manley
Nichols is now the absolute owner of
the Free For All cup.

the cup for green PAGERS. The cup tor

Sardless of records.
They are to have four classes, \. Il
{ and d. Glass A is to take the place
of the free for all. Class 3 will be
made up of PAGERS not quite fast
enough for Class A. Class {, PAGERS
are those not considered good enough
to race in Glass B. Class ID is for the
trotters, OF which there are four good
ones.
After going d race or tWo. the win
ners in Glass c viii be put into Class
B. winners of Class 3 will have to
jump into the free tor-all and some
of those that have been racing in ton
fast company will be dropped back in
to a class where they can have a bet
ter chance to win.
BY doing this the club is back on a
friendly footing. No meeting ever
broke up. or closed with the members
feeling any better. one toward the
other By doing as they did. they as
sure the public. or that part of it. that
is interested in the sport that they will
see this winter. some of the best rae
ing ever seen on the Kennebec river
long noted for rare sport in this line.
At no time within a period OF 20
years has there been SO many fast
horses available as we have now. so
many of them and SO closely matched,
that never speculation permissible,
the man that could pick winners and
do it with any degree of certainty,
could fill his trunk with money.
The club is united, the club has the
horses to race, and are to race them.
not a few of them, but all of them.
To the doubters the club would say:
Don't say, or write word, until we
have held the races of Thursday next
And one more the following week. If
you keep still until Jan. 20, you will
forever hold your peace"

and Paraguay, will be made minister
to Portugal.
Mr. Peirces resignation and the re-
sultant changes were announced yes
terday afternoon, and have caused
great deal of comment on the Govern
ment's diplomatic policies. 1t revived
the speculation as to the causes of the
resignation of David Jayne Hill from
the diplomatic post at Berlin. and it
was said that his lack of sympathy
with what has come to be known as
the dollar diplomacy led to his leav-
ing the service.
1t revived, too, the reports that Oscar
Straus resigned the post at Constanti-
nople because he believed that the State
DEPARTMENTS requirements that he give
what he regarded as a disproportionate
part of his time to advancing United
States trade were not appropriate to
diplomacy.
The cause for Mr.. Peirce's resigna-
ton is not stated.
