General sentiment is that Mr..
Lindbergh is trying to commit GER
tain Republicans to his candidacy for
governor. After that he can run for
congress, as usual, claiming to be a
Republican, and the man who ex-
presses himself favorably toward his
gubernatorial candidacy will be eff
|fectually prevented from criticising
him as candidate for any other Of
flee. Mr. Lindbergh is gaining a
reputation as a rgular fox in tn poll

The Catholic Mutual Benefit Asso-
citation was organized in the village
of Niagara Falls, N. Y, in July, 1876,
and was incorporated by the legisla-
ture of the state of New York in
1879. Its act of incorporation is
known as Chapter 496 of the Laws
of New York, passed June 8, 1879.
The object of this association as
set forth in section 5 of sa d act, is
To improve the moral, mental and
social condition of it's members; to
educate them in integrity, sobriety
and frugality; to endeavor to make
them contented with their position
in life, and to aid and ASS st men,
bers and their families in case of
DEATH"
The organization of this associa-
ton was first suggested by the late
lamented Rt. Rev. S. v. Ryan,
Bishop of Buffalo, and by it's men,
bers he is referred to with pride and
affection as the Father of the G. NJ
B. A." His name, W tn many other
distinguished prelates, and vast
number of the reverend clergy
throughout the United States and
Canada, adorn it's rolls.
The qualifications for membership
are, that a man shall be a practical
Catholic, physically sound, of the
full age of sixteen years and under
fifty years of age at date of initia-
ton. Every applicant must have the
signature of the pastor of his parish
to his application paper as guaran-
tee that he possesses the first quail
fication before his application can be
considered in any branch.
Being business society, having
for it's objet safe and reliable life
insurance for it's members, and as
the strength and perpetu ty of all
such associations depend entirely en-
the nature of their life risks, all ap-
plicants must undergo a rigid medi-
cal examination by competent ply
stefan, regularly appointed and sworn
to perform his duty honestly. All
certificates of examination made by
such exam ners must be submitted to
the Supervising Medical Examiner of
the council, who approves or disap-
proves the applicant, according to the
statements contained in such ertif :
no cd TO-
or balloted for until the branch has
been notified of the approval of the
grand medical examiner. In addi-
ton to this, each branch has board
of five trustees, to whom all applica-
tions must be referred, who are en-
powered to approve or reject.
The cost of admission is as fol-
lows:
Initiation fee. ........... $500

A member may, at any time be-

plication.
The $500 initial on fee and the
monthly dues are the property of the
branch. The association charges but
so cents for the admission of men,
Der. 1t is called the initiation tax,
and is paid by the branch to the
ceived from the member.
The corporation is known as the
Supreme Council of the Catholic Mu-
tual Benefit Association, and is COM
posed of representatives from each
grand council in addition to it's own
officers and holds it's convent ons tri-
ennially.
Every parish or congregation is en-
titled to have one branch, and every
state, territory or province having
ten or more branches aggregating
one thousand membe rs, is entitled to
have state organization, called
grand council.
Grand councils are composed of
their own regular officers and one
representative from each branch in
the r jurisdiction, and meets trien
niaily also.
The assets of the Association
amount to nearly two million dollars
and it has the large and increasing
membership of sixty-two thousand
Catholic men giving insurance pro-
lection to over three hundred thou
sand dependents, and nearly thirty
million dollars have been d stributed
to the widows and orphans of it's de-
ceased members since it's organiza-
ton.
1t has the approval of our Right
Reverend Bishops, and is affiliated
with the American Federation of
Catholic Societies, the Amer can
Missionary Congress, and has Lie
membership in the Catholic Church
Extension Society. 1t also has men,
vership in the National F'ra.ern..4
Congress of America.
The reserve fund is surrounded by
the safest and most reliable safe
guards for it's protect on. 1t is con-
stantly being increased by setting
apart ten per cent of each monthly
beneficiary payment and the interest
on it's own deposits and securities. 1t
is from time to time invested in the
safest of interest-bearing secur:t es,
such as municipal and county bonds,

the association are required to give
heavy bonds for the faithful and hon

account regularly.
This association, as we'll as all 9TH
er associations, societies and compan-
les that undertake to insure life,

tendent of the insurance departments
of the different states and be sub

alton of books, accounts and meth
DDS of doing bus ness, ETC., by the Of
ficers of said departments.
We refer with pride to the records
of the insurance department of the
state of New York to prove that, of
all the fr;,ternal insurance societies
doing business in this state, of which
there are above two hundred, the C..
M. Il. A. stands at the head of the
list, equalled by none, as being the
best and most economically managed.
it's ratio of expenses to receipts be-
ing the least.
The beneficiary, on the death of
member, is paid promptly within the
time fixed by the constitution, to- the
person or persons legally entitled to
the same, and is by our act of inccr-
poration exempt from execution or
liability for the debts of deceased
member.
The cost of insurance in the c.
M. B. A. is based upon the actual
cost of pure life protection, and is
therefore much lower than the cost
of similar amount of insurance ill
any of the regular old-line companies;
and instead of a member being re-
quired to pay the whole years pre-
MUM at one payment, the c. M. B.
A. divides the cost into twelve parts
and let's the members pay one part
each month.

The pastor of parish in which a

New Branches.
Not less than fifteen male persons
are necessary to start new branch.
Members who have been granted
transfer cards from branch may be
admitted as charter members of any
n,w branch, and may form portion

makes it successful.
A fair example Of this came in the
sixth inning after Mayer walked with
no one out Cicotte, who had relieved
Scott in the box. hit sharply over
second, and the ball appeared ticketed
for the outfeld. It was an absolutely
safe hit, technically, as Bush could
not have thrown Cicotte out. But the
diminutive Tiger, shOrtstOp skidded
over back of second, snagged the ball
with his gloved hand, and, with his
back to the diamond, snapped it to
Kavanaugh, forcing Mayer at the
keystone.
Il is not stretching the apology
stuff to kick when a clean hit re-
suits in a force out, When luck breaks
that way a team simply can't win.
The game, was more Cobb than
anything else. In the first inning he
doubled behind single, and the run
scored on Crawford's fly, Ty attempt
ed to score from second, but was dOu-
bled. ......
In the third inning two were out,
none were on, and Ty had two
strikes. He picked a single, went to
third when Scott failed to touch first
on Crawford's boUnder to Chase, and
both scored when High bumped to
left for base.
In the fifth two were out again
when Ty was walked by Cicotte.
Crawford hit the right field bleachers
with a triple.
In the eighth Cobb was safe on
Chase's tumble. He stole second and
third, but was stabbed out trying to
sWipe home. The great star, despite
his low hitting percentage, seems to
be working harder this year than ever
before. Playing with winner keeps
an athlete keyed up to fighting pitch,
and Cobb is trying all of his wiles
to score runs and keep his team in
front.
Though beaten. the SoX did not
