Taken for a Bank RObber.

A young man stranger IN AlpenH,
Ark, had been lettering the better
part Of Thursday afternoon in the
vicinity of the Alpena Canning fac
tory, for no other purpose except to
wait there until a side door Pullman
train should pull into town, and
take him to Harrison.
However, his presence near the
factory brought suspicion in the
mind of the owner of the establish
ment, and every few minutes he
would stick his head around the
corner of the building to see that the
stranger didn't carry away his mill.
, The strangers side-door Pullman
did not pull in ION scheduled time,
consequently he decided that, as the
citizens of Alpena were now peace
fully sleeping, he too, would follow
suit by sleeping on the bench in the
depot's waiting room
1t must have been between eleven
and twelve o'clock when all of a
sudden the stranger was walked up
and told to put up his hands-he
did, and did it quickly. There was
a considerable body armed to the
teeth with the muzzles of their mus.
kets at the bosom of the stranger
They accused him of attempting to
rob the Alpena bank.
1t seems that the canning factory
man could not sleep well, the picture
of the solitary being lettering OH the
bank of the creek near his mill,
brought him visions of Jesse ames
raids. Yes, the stranger had evil
designs; the bank people must be
notified, and presto, the bank Off.
cials soon formed vigilance
committee and a search for the des-
perado was instituted.

Winter Oats

Most every farm needs from three
to FIVE acres Of oats for every horse
on the farm. In planning the oat
crop don't forget that the winter
varieties ou yield the spring varie-
ties Therefore, make preparation
to seed as many oats this fall as
possible. For Central and North
Arkansas use the Winter Turf varle-
ty and seed with drill between the
first and fifteenth of October. In
South Arkansas, either the Winter
Turf or the Red Rust Proof Oats
may be used. and their seeding
should be done with the drill about
the last half of October. Seeding
with the drill and seeding at proper
season help to prevent winter kill

When they finally found him, and
heard his story as to how he came
to be there and taking into consld-
Grafton that he didn't have even a
pen knife and the home.like appear
ance Of his person-in stocking feet
and shirt sleeves-they came to the
conclusion that the owner of the
canning mill must have been drink
lag something heavier than tomato
Juice, for the leader of the armed
party turned to them and said:
Bows, this is no bank robber we
have here. He is a newspaper re-
porter on the bum"
After which, they one and all left
the stranger to wait for his train
and went quietly to their homes

SHOWS HEAVY INCREASE.
New England Mutual Life Insurance
Company Reports for 1914.

The seyenty-frst annual statement of
the New England Mutual Life Insur-
ance company shows a phenomenal in
crease in business and surplus for the
year 1914.
The company has received from poll
icy holders since organization 1888. 600, -
600 1t has now on hand gross assets
over $40, 600, 900, and has paid to pol
icy holders over SAP, 900, 600, so that it
has not only furnished insurance pro-
lection for over seventy-one years, but
has an excess of nearly S25, 600. 900, of
benefits to policy holders over and
above total premiums it has received.
A very important feature of che con
servative management of this COM
pany is demonstrated by the increase
in dividends, which have more than
doubled in the last eight years. In
1908 the dividends declared by the COM
pany were 1865, 600, in 1910, 81, 255, 900;
in 1912, 81, SAL. 600, and in 1915 81, $40,
600. This certainly is very commend
able for it reduces the net cost Of in
surance to policy holders to minimum.
The New England Mutual Life lnsur-
ance company was chartered by the
commonwealth of Massachusetts in
1885, which makes it the oldest mutual
life insurance company in the country.
The wealth of experience acquired dur
ing nearly century of its history
places the company in an extraordinary
strong position.
The idea of mutually has always
been a dominant factor in shaping the
policy and practice of the New Eng
land company. Every policy holder is
member of the company and en-
titled TO vote at the annual meetings.
The policy holders. who are the sole
owners, are thus assured permanent
control.
A. l.. Saltzstein, who is the general
agent of the company, with offices in
the First National Bank building. re-
ports excellent business conditions.
The new business produced by his
agency in the year 1914 was the largest
in the history and 1915 promises to be
still better.
