FOR CLAIMS
Airplane Is Used to Speed
Death Settlements by
Company.

Airplane mail is one of the latest
agents of speed being employed by tic
Lincoln National Life Insurance Com
pany.
Many of the death-claim checks and
other important messages are being
sent from the Lincoln National Life
Insurance Company home office by
mail. This quick payment Of death
claims and the close contact with all
agency problems is the continuation of
the service ambition which has moved
the Lincoln National Life since its
organization.
Every mechanical device obtainable
for speeding up the different angles
Of service, and of connecting by in.
Simultaneous communication the several
departments is a part of the magnifi-
cent new home of the Lincoln National
Life.
Electricity opens the incoming let
tiers in the mailing department. 1t
folds outgoing letters and seals and
stamps the envelopes.
ELECTRIC TYPEWRITERS.
Two sets of Hollerith machines keep
the business records of the company
up to the minute so that agents can
be apprised at once just where they
stand. Electrically operated typewrit-
ers turn out quick letters for the
home office and field men alike.
The usual battery of addressographs
is amplified by a many-function ma
chine that turns out premium notices
and invoices at a high rate per min
ute.
There is a ditto machine for dupli-
eating premium cards and all similar
data which saves the work of many
clerks and gets results much more
quickly.
The building itself. which has been
proclaimed by several critics as 1.-The
Most Beautiful Life Insurance Build
ing in the World" was planned and
arranged by Architect Benjamin W.
Morris of New York and Harry A.
Hopf, industrial engineer of New
York, with a view of aligning each
department for the highest efficiency
in service.
ITS HISTORY.
The Lincoln National Life 1nsur-
ance Company was founded in 1903.
Arthur +. Hall. who was making
notable sales record at indianapolis
for the Equitable Life Assurance So
ciety of New York, organized the COM
pany.
The men who gathered to discuss
the proposed organization represented
the business leaders of Fort Wayne.
They were moved with a common
ideal to organize a life insurance com
pany upon the Hottest principles of
business ethics.
Shortly after this the plans of or
ganization were completed and on
September /, 1905. the new company
began business, every dollar of its
stock having been placed without the
payment of commission 10 anyone.
On December 81, 1905, the new
company's first statement showed
$500 600 Of insurance in force, while
its total assets were S116,097.
Five years later, on December 81,
1910, the assets had mounted TO $4S5,-
4OS and the insurance in force TO
S5,392, 2Sj.
incidentally it might be noted that
the amount of insurance which the
company had in force at the end of
five years is less than One-half the new
business written now in single
month.

NEW YORK. February 1.-THE
statistical showing in the steel mar
ket during the past week has been
very satisfactory. The January book
ings were about as expected, and pro-
duction has continued very active,
especially in the West. New business

well maintained. Some hesitation was
displayed. however, and in some
quarters there was a disposition to
question domestic buyers ability to
continue to absorb present large pro-
duction. Pig iron was inactive. but
prices were steady despite increasing
concern over foreign competition.
Copper Demand Quiet.
Copper, steadier Demand both for
export and domestic consumption has

Tin moved up steadily in response
to the strength manifest abroad, par

Lead Buyers Cautious.
Lead has been cut by the leading
producer to the level of outside com
petitors. Buyers remain cautious, as
demand for some manufactured goods
has slowed down somewhat.
Zinc declined in sympathy with
London, but rallied on the decrease
in domestic stocks, which created
better domestic demand.
Scarcity of antimony on the spot
gave spot prices further strength, and
futures were firm in sympathy.

The mine lays half a mile away from the fine camp site, and owing 10 rugged and high hill between the camp and the mine, the easiest method of reaching the workings is by row boat for the tunnel has been started directly from the beach at an altitude of about I5 feet above tide water.
 Two Pets Minks in Camp
 For while a beach crow was one of the pets which formerly hopped about the camp at all hours of the day, but on account of the crow getting into the habit of bringing his gang around with him at early hours in the morning, Kasenek, an expert rifleman, decided his rest was being broken up too much, so one morning he arose and with his gun-well, the crow was seen no more. Very much out of the ordinary, though, are the antics which two pet mink, which are making their home at the camp. Hard ly larger than rats, only much longer. these beautiful little fur bearers move about the tents from early morn to late at night, and so familiar are they becoming they even hop into the hunks occasionally.A certain box in which scraps of food are thrown, is the first thing they head for upon coming into camp from romp about the woods. An old stovepipe, which has never been cleaned of soot, is their favorite playground, running back and forth through the iron tun- nel with great dexterity. They have been named Romeo and Juliet.
 Both Men OIdtimers
 Alex Kasenek, of Russian birth, now a naturalized citizen of the United States, is an exceptionally splendid example of the Alaskan prospector. A graduate of Russian and German universities, shortly after arrival in New York he became an American citizen by special decree, due to his grandfather being member of the Russian officials who remained at Sitka for some time following the purchase of Alaska from Russia. He was a member of the noted New York hospital staff for a considerable pe- riod. At the time the United States entered the world war, Mir. Kasenek, an Alaskan veteran, was in the Nome region and enlisted at Fort Davis, three miles from Nome. He was a member of the Black Bear division, 27th infantry, an officer of the regi- mental supply department. While overseas he won number of medals for his expert marksmanship.
 John Smith is also veteran of the world war serving in the First bat talion, 85th division, heavy artillery. He saw 19 months service overseas and was p months in service. He was gassed at Chateau Thierry and later sent to a high altitude in Colo rado. He received his discharge in 1919. Like MT. Kasenek, MT. Smith is an oldtimer in the country and has prospected in many of the interior districts.
