FOURTEEN
1 Of the thirty-one persons killed in the
wreck of the Mystic Shriners’ special
train at Honda, Cal., on Saturday, May
Iith, were insured against accidents in
the Aetna Life Insurance Company, of
Hartford, Conn. This involves a loss of
$110,500, which is the largest loss ever
jncured by a company under accident
policies in any one disaster. The total
amount which the Aetna Life had at risk
on the lives of passengers on this train
was at least $154,000, but of those insured
with the Company other than the four'
teen killed only one is reported severely
injured. The amounts payable for deaths
in this wreck are all double the amounts
insured, and in four cases they are triple
the amounts insured through the fact that
the beneficiaries were killed in the same
disaster. This emphasizes most strongly
the enlarged scope of accident insurance
protection as furnished by the Aetna Life.
The fact that nearly one-half of all who
were killed carried their accident insur
ance in the Aetna Life is striking evi
dence of the confidence reposed in the
Company by the insuring public, and
that confidence is wisely so placed. It i 8
only a large company like the Aetna Life
that can withstand such a calamity as
this. If all of the persons killed and in
jured in this wreck had been insured in
Aetna Life, the resultant claims would
be paid immediately on receipt of proof
of death and without in the slightest de
gree impairing the strength of the Com
pany. The Aetna Life furnishes absolute
protection to those insured in it. Call on

Calls Off Cabinet Meeting to Be Photo
graphed Hurdling.
Little Freddy Jones played hook?
from Grant school recently and got
spanked for it. The same spring
weather tempted Theodore Roosevelt,
president of these United States, and
be fell as little Freddy Jones did, says
a Washington special to the New York
Times. But the president got away
with it, probably because there is no
one in spanking authority over the
president except the senate, sitting as
a high court of impeachment.
One of bib most successful photo
graphs, one that will best seifte to Il
lustrate history pages describing a
strenuous president, is a snapshot of
the president jumping a powerful
horse over a fence. He has long want
ed to get another of those pictures or
two of three of them, for the historians,
of course. He wanted to please as
many historians as possible. For days
the horses and the camera and the
fence and the president and the pho
tographer have been waiting for an
other trial. The other day was Just the
warm, soft, spring weather to make
blood and horses jump well together
and the sun was all that a photogra
pher could desire.
“Bully!” cried the president, and
summoned the horses and Lieutenant
Fltz-Hugb Lee, bis military aid, who
rides to hounds himself.
“But It is cabinet day,” ventured the
shocked Loeb.
“Bother!” protested the president.
Then he set bis teeth. That was an
other attempt to hamper him with
precedent
“Call it off,” he told Loeb.
Loeb, shocked, because the cabinet
has met twice a week on the eame
days and at the same hour slnoe Wash
ington’s day, telephoned the cabinet
members suggesting that if they bad
nothing Important to bring op the cab
inet meeting would be postponed a day
and the president would go riding. Of
coarse they hadn’t Bnt Attorney Gen
eral Bonaparte is understood to have
laughed outright
WONDERFUL NEW MARKET.
Great Variety of Articles Required by
Panama Canal Commission.
Henry Harrison Lewis, writing In
Harper’s Weekly, calls attention to the
unprecedented stimulus which the con
struction work on the Panama canal
should give to American manufactures
of all kinds. “A fair working Idea
of the great variety of articles required
t»y the commission," says Mr. Lewis,
“can be obtained by scrutinizing a sin
gle requisition recently received from
the Isthmus.
“The articles mentioned In this sin
gle requisition appeal direct to more
than twenty dlfferen classes of manu
factures, such as manufacturers of rail
way supplies, car factories, tube works,
manufacturers of tools, blacksmith sup
plies, rope works, cotton mills, manu
facturers of barbers’ supplies, paint
and varnish works, oil refineries, man
ufacturers of tools, glass works, spirit
refineries, manufacturers of offlee sup
plies, nail works, makers of high ex
plosives and manufactnrers of agricul
tural implements.
The quantities required by this requi
sition are worthy the attention of any
manufacturer or dealer. For Instance,
it calls for more than 800 tons of dyna
mite, 20,000 \ dlons of red oxide roof
ing paint, 260 tons of white lead in oil,
800,000 pounds of black powder, 150,-
000 hewn railroad cross ties, 4,000 mule
shoes, 1,000 single beds, with springs,
and 1,500 single mattresses, 20.000 gal
lons of kerosene, 4,000 feet of steel
rope and 350 pounds of rubber bands.”

POLICEWOMEN FOB LORAIN.
Ohio . Sooloty Leaders Offer Their
Servioee, and Mayor Aooopts.
Disgusted by unpunished crimes In
the way of robberies and pocket pick
ing, society women of Lorain, O., re
cently offered their services to Mayor
King as policemen, says a special dis
patch to the New York World. “Huh!
A good Joke,” he remarked. “Imagine
a bunch of the Four Hundred dressed
In picture hats and peekaboo waists
patrolling the streets in search of
criminals!”
But he promised to accept their serv
ices and said he would swear them In
the next day. ‘TU use as many as re
port for duty,” he told them at the end
of their Interview.
The women declare they are in dead
earnest, but the mayor thinks they
will change their minds after a night’s
sleep. “I’m game, though,” be said
the other night. “I’ll put them on duty
If they come around. We need a few
more policemen or some policewomen.”
Korean Financier.
A Korean countryman named Yi
Tuksu has come to the conclusion that
something should be done to prevent
the collection of money to pay the pub
lic debt becoming such a drain on the
circulation medium as to cause embar
rassment to the merchant class, says
the Korean Daily Times. He suggests
that Koreans give up such luxuries as
their gold rings and silver hairpins
and other objects of intrinsic value;
that these be conservatively appraised
and stored carefully In same safe de
posit and used as bullion to back a pa
per currency which will circulate
among the people. Whether this is
feasible or not It shows that the Ko
reans are willing to look the dlfl3culties
of the situation squarely In the face
and desire to meet all valid objections
halfway.
Asked Per Prayer.
The Hon. John Langley, who comes
to the next congress as a representa
tive from Kentucky, need to be ap
pointment clerk of the census bnrean.
He knew how not to make an appoint
ment when he didn’t want to. A story
Is told of an excellent old clergyman
from Pennsylvania who called on
Langley to urge the appointment of a
young woman from that state. The
oppolntment clerk talked in snch man
ner as to lead the clergyman to believe
that his young woman would get the
oppolntment. It didn’t materialize,
however, and the man of the cloth
asked one of Langley’s subordinates:
“What kind of a man is Mr. Lang
ley?”
“A good man, I think,” was ths loyal
reply.
“But what Is his reputation for truth
and veracity?”
“I always understood it to be sound.”
“No. He tells me crooked tales. He
told me a flat falsehood.”
“There must be some mistake.”
“No, there is no mistake, and I told
him he had told me a falsehood.”
“And what did he say to that, sir?”
“He put his hands on my shoulders
and said, ‘My good brother, pray for
me.’ ’’—Washington Herald.

Mental Photography.
A member of the Photographic soci
ety has been trying the new mental
photography which has been making
some stir in Berlin. This local experi
menter took a blank photographic plate
Into his dark room, bound It to his
forehead and for thirty minutes con
centrated his thoughts on the face of
a close friend of his. The developed
plate, which he says is the identical
one that he bound to his forehead,
shows faintly traces of a face that has
many points of resemblance to that of
his friend. Such, at least. Is the opin
ion of some who have seen the plate,
though others declare that Its mark
ings are Indeterminate and look like
nothing in particular. The point raised
by the experiment is whether or not
an image on the human brain can be
photographed, since the X ray <mn se
cure an image of the arteries of a body
ot of something Inclosed In a solid,
opaque covering.—Philadelphia Record.
