UNAUTHORIZED INSURANCE.

The danger of placing insurance
with unauthorized companies is illus"
trated by the experience Of Mrs. Jo-
hanna Winner of Reynolds, N. D.,
whose deceased husband carried q
life policy for 5000 with the Bankers
Union Life Insurance company of Chi
cago. This is an assessment COM
pany which has never been admitted
to North Dakota and is not under the
supervision Of the insurance depart
ment. After a delay of six months,
Mrs. WINNER, who Is the beneficiary
named in her husbands policy, Sc
cured from the company an offer OF
$602.OS in full settlement for policy
of $1,000. "Whatever., may be the
merits of this case" said Insurance
Commissioner Taylor, ut Is useless for
the department to attempt to secure
any relief for Mrs. Winner because
the company in question is wholly be-
You'd the supervision or authority of
this department. Had the company
been authorized to transact business
in this state the matter would have
been upon an entirely different foot
ing. Then we could have required
the company to show by what right or
excuse it Topped $1,400 off a $4,000
policy, and unless it had such right
which may we'll be doubted-it could
be compelled to redeem it's obliga'

A NoN.PARTIsAN ORGANIZATION

A NoN.PARTIsAN ORGANIZATION
In commenting upon the rumors
which are afloat regarding prospec-
tive candidates who may run for the
office of city commissioner at the spe'
cial election to be held February ~,
the Tribune mentioned that there was
talk in Hobbies and corridors that the
Commercial club is anxious that
George Russ become candidate. The
statement slipped into the item In
advertently, and, without casting any
reflections upon Mr.. Russ, the Trib'
une desires to correct 1t.
The Commercial club is strictly a
non-partisan organization. Men of all
political creeds are enrolled upon its
charter and are fighting the good
fight for the advancement and prog
ress of the city. They are all work
ing together, boosting for Bismarck.
Their sole aim and purpose is to a.
sist, so far as lies within their pow
er, in making Bismarck the, largest
city in the state, and one Of the most
powerful municipalities Of the entire
northwest. If political schemes were
permitted to creep into the endeav'
ors of the club many well laid plans
would gang aft agley." Hence the
club endorses no candidate-not for
state, county or city Office.
It may be true that there are In
dividual members who are anxious
that Mr.. Russ become a candidate.
Any endorsement which he receives,
however, will come from individual
citizens, and not from the Bismarck
Commercial club as an organization.

FIGHTING The RATEL.
This South African Badger Has 4 Grip
Like q euIldoa.


There is curious long nosed little
creature Of South Africa called the
fatel. which is said to exhibit most
peculiar method Of fighting It's human
adversaries. The son Of Bri*isher In
South Africa who was using for the
first time a shotgun had what hardly
could be called an amusing experience
with q ratel.
The boy saw the ratel creeping round
an ant hill. He cantered of at q not
very rapid pace, and the boy fred at
easy range. The animal turned heels
over head, much in the same manner
that tame squirrel will disport itself
in wheel cage. The ratel paused
once. as IL in pain, but never took his
eyes of the boy. The lad did not think
of running. but dubbed his gun and
stood, prepared to meet spring.
1t happened that the English boy had
never been told how the ratel fights.
Almost every boy in the veldt knows,
but this lad did not. To wait thus, ex-
pecting leap breast high. is to give
the ratel exactly the chance he wants.
Hesitating not a second, the ratel Gid:
ed swiftly in and seized the lads feet.
The boy hacked him with the butt end
of his gun, kicked at him. shouted his
loudest. but the ratel gnawed away
with the pertinacity Of bulldog. At
every blow the creatures teeth closed
like a wise. The boy seized his long
tail. wrenched and twisted it, but the
ratel would not quit his hold.
The struggle lasted for shorter time
than it takes to tell 1t. The muscles of
the lads instep were cut through. and
he tumbled backward-not at full
length, but against an ant hill. This
circumstance probably saved his life.
The ratel let 80. as 1t does when its
victim drops, to spring upon the lads
throat and rip his stomach with its
hind claws. But the plucky boy lifted
himself upon his elbows and lay across
the summit Of the mound. That might
only have prolonged the struggle, but
his father ran up at the moment. The
boy was many months In bed and
many more on crutches.-New York
Press.
