This nnt un Is nearly twice as great as tho 1:11 toial of life Insurance In force In K;!Klari(l, Oerniuny, Franco and Uuti nla. S'-lontlflc llf In iiranrp l-t linked npen the litiowi h1; that there Is a natural law governing th mortality of (lie racfi by which may ho deter mined the average lifetime of a largo number of persons ut a given ao. True, It rannot he predicted iu what year any particular Individual will die, hut It may he determined with approximate accuracy how many per sons out of n Riven number will die at any specified age. If the mortuary records of any ennmiiinlty aro studied and the va rious ages noted at which the sev eral deaths have occurred, It will be found that the yearly mortality U governed by a law which Is practi cally Invariable. Supiose, for exam ple, that auch an observation covers a period of time suftlclent to Include the istory of 100,000 lives. Of these a certain number will be found dy ing at age 20, a larger number at nge 3o, and bo on at the various ages, the xtreme limit of life reached by any no being In the neighborhood of 100 years. Asa result of syst'i.iatlc study of mortality record life Insurance ompanles hav .u-orporated the re sults of the1 .omputatlons into what are called .nortality tables. These tables reveal at a glance the Inexora ble workings of the natural law gov erning the mortality of the race. They show how many In any large umber of persons born will live to age 30, how many to age 40 and how many to any other age. They also how the number that will die at each age and the average lifetime re maining to those still alive. In the simplest form of life insur ance a number of persons combine to ereate a common fund to be drawn tpon in providing for the families if deceased members of the organl ti'.lon. This organization is called a e-itual life insurance company, and contract is made by the company rlth each member, fixing the amount o be paid in tho event of his death .o Home member of his family, who ! called the beneficiary. One of the most popular forms of insurance to-day Is endowment in aurance. It has been devised for the person who may wish to make some provision for h!:t own future as well aa for the future of his descendants. Ad endowment policy Is one which Is paable to the Insured himself if e lives through a specified number ef years or to a stated age, or paya ble to his beneficiary In the event of kls death before the speclllcd period. There is a twenty-year endowment, a ttilrty-yeur endowment and so on. At age 3 5 each of tho 81,822 inein Wors of a company takes out a ten ytnr pure endowment' policy of H,000. During the next ten years the 7,649 members who die will re stive nothing. At the end of that po niod the 74,173 survivors will bo paid a total of J7 1.1 73,000. Kind Ujo present worth of this sum nnd proceed as In computing tho net sin gle and net annual premiums for or dinary life. The net single premium for such an endowment policy is $042.65. Thiu amount in ten years at 3 V4 per eent. compound interest will amount to only $S06.52 instead of the face value of the policy, $1,000. This dif ference U made up by tho premiums iojTelted by the members who die 4urln? the term and who get noth ing. Here comes In what Is known aa forfeiture In life insurance. To obtain the net single premium the mors popular form of endow ment, known as ten and twenty year endowment, suppose that each of the Il,t.a2 members of the company, be-Idt-H carrying pure-endowment poli cies also curry term insurance of like amount covering the same period of ton ears. Then each of the 7,649 persons who die during tho ten years will receive $1,000 and thus by com bining toe premium of a policy the mot single premium of a regular en dowment Is obtained. There are innumerable other forms of policies, but these are rep resentative and suffice to show how the premiums of all policies result from computations based upon the mortality table and the expenses ln adent to the running of a life insur ance company. The reserve in life insurance is 4 m ply the insurance fund or mortal ity fund of the company, from which ail death claims are paid. The re move Is made up of the net annual premiums and the money these pre miums will earn M 8H per cent, eom pound interest. Neither net pre miums nor the Interest thereon can k devoted under the law to any e-Uier use than to the payment of htu claims. Anthony J. Henson.

IVniisylvatiln Shipped 800,000 From One of Its Hatcheries. Tho largest lot of frogs ever grown In captivity In rennsylvnnlii were distributed from the Pleasant Mount hatchery, In Wnyno County. Fish Commissioner Mcehan decided lur.t year to add fro culture to the service rendered by the fish commis sion, nnd n few v.-ero raised at the Cony and tho Kilo hatcheries nnd -distributed. The experiment was successful, nnd frog raising, It was decided, should also be tried at the new Pleasant Mount station. There tho frog crop was entirely successful, nnd the 300,000 were rnlsed und tent out. The process of raising young frogs 13 exceedingly Interesting. When four or five days old they are ready to ship and are from 1 i to 2 Inches Ions. When twelve days old they are worth 2 cents upleco for bass bait, bo there Is money In raising frogs If one knows how, since It Is possible to grow 2,000.000 of them to the acre. The frogs are shipped In cans of four hundred each, packed simply iu wet moss. The raising of frogs Is easier than the raising of poultry. A frog a week old planted now will bo fit for the table next year, and In two years will bo a "monster." Two kinds of frogs, the greenhcads and the western, were raised at the hatchery, but the greenhead Is pre ferred by epicures. The market price of edible frogs Is from $1.G0 to $3 a dozen.

This substance has hitherto been so expensive ($1.60 a pound) as to preclude Its general UEe. The Inventor of the new process claims that he enn furnish laevulose at a price which will enable It to compete with glucose. Laevulose is of special importanco beeauso It enn bo taken by persons suffering from diabetes, who cannot eat cane sugar or ordinary starchy foods. It Is further claimed that tho luultn, a starchy substance from which the lnavulose Is made, is free from the deleterious effects of ordi nary starch when taken by diabetics. Chicory roots and dahlia tubers are, it seems, very rich in lnulln, and it is from these sources that the inulln is obtained for the manufacture of lae vulose. These plants can be culti vated cheaply on a large scale. A portion of the lnulln will be usod for tho manufacture of a bread for dia betic patients. The plants can be found In most of the States. Education In Japan. The number of public schools in Japan Is at present 27.13S, in which 5,084,099 children are taught by 108,360 teachers: 93.23 per cent, of all the children of Bchool age went to these schools. In 1873 29 per cent, of school age children went to the pub lic schools; in 1883 51 per cent, and in 1893 59 per cent. A rapid Increase in attendance is noted after the Chi nese war. Tho percentage of attend ance of boys compared with that of girls was 40 to 15 in 1873; the differ ence now la only 7 per cent. The at tendance ut the various commercial and Industrial schools was as fol lows: In 1901, 36,000; in 1902, 95, 000 1. e., only 2,000 loss than the number of Intermediate schools. Tho univcralty for women held Its com mencement exercises recently, 86 graduates receiving the so-called academy diploma and 132 the uni versity diploma. Of those receiving the university diploma, 73 had stud ied housekeeping, 4 5 national litera ture, and 14 belonged to the "Eng lish" family. This university was founded for the purpose of educating women to be good wives and moth ers. Frankfurter Zeitung, Criers ut tho I'urU Hallos. The position of crier at the Paris Halles, or Central Markets, Is one which, In view of recent rovelatlons In a case before the law courts, ought not to be despised. The men who cry Gatlnals fowls for sale earn 20 a month; those who sell Brittany fowls get 18 a mouth, and thoutt who dispose of ducks only receive 10 per month. Rabbits bring the crier only a pittance, for 6 a month Is all be gets. Not everybody can be m w .oi , iur uuivbb uu uavv auunci i vocal chords and a passable voice i you will not be engaged.

London Qlobe. FRANCE AND EGYPT. Almost as Many French as English In Egypt. In view of the now AnploFrenrh agreement, It may not bo out of place to note tho extent of French Interests In the valley of the Nile. These aro enumerated in the Paris Temps, by M. Villlers, who maintains that, until now, France has preserved all her privileges, those she holds from the capitulations as well as those secured by the conventions of 187C and 1879, viz., personal liberty, Inviolability of domicile, exemption from taxation ex cept custom dues, house tax, nnd tho municipal tax at Alexandria, and a special Jurisdiction. As to tho more recent Interests of the French they are, nays M. Villlers, guaranteed by the Calsse re la Dette. and the agree ment which created the mixed tribun als. There are In Kgypt, according to the census of 1897, no fewer than 14.155 French subjects, as against 19,500 English, of whom 7,000 are sol diers and 6,500 Maltese speaking Ital ian. Of tho 2,310.000,000 francs of the Egyptian Dette, 1,580,000.000 francs are held by Frenchmen. Tho majority of the shareholders and bondholders of the Credit Foncier Eyptlen are French. The trade of France with Egypt amounts to be tween CO.non.ooo and 70,000,000 francs. There are 108 French commercial es tablishments, nnd the landed property belonging to Frenchmen amounts In value to about 53,000.000 francs. Three-fifths of the directors of tho Suez canal are French. French mis s'onarles have 15,000 pupils speaking French In their schools. The French law school at Cairo, the French hos pltals, and the French clubs continue to exist, while the French department for tho study of Egyptian antiquities, upholds, says M. Villlers, "the tradi tions of our science In the road opened up for It by Bonaparte In 179S." Chinese Worship of Stone Animals. Francis H. Nichols In his Journey through the Chinese province of Shensl saw a temple where stone ani mals were worshipped. He says: "In rows of heavily barred brick cages are stone Images of animals. They are all life-size and are remarkably well executed. Among them are ele phants, tigers, and monkeys, whose sculptors must have secured their models a long distance from Shensl, where the originals are not found. The stone animals stand for the Buddhist Idea of reincarnation. They are worshipped as sacred and are supposed, In a vague way to be en dowed with life. It Is to prevent them from escaping and running away from their worshippers that the cages have wooden bars In front of them. Between the two temples was a pond where fish were fonged, or set at lib erty. In its workings the system j of fonglng animals has very much tho effoct of a humane society on the : western side of the world. On the ' theory that any of the brute, creation i may be tho dwelling place of the soul , of a former human being, lame and ', sick animals become tho c.-ire of the priests; In some of the brgcr tem ples special provision Is made for cnrlng for the sick cats and doss. To fong an animal of any kind Is considered an act of supreme virtue. To obtain good luck a pious China man will sometimes purchase a live flr.h and have a priest fong It. This is done by placing It in the pond re served for the purpose near the tem ple." London, New York, Berlin. I "I agree," writes a correspondent, "that your contributor wns justified in saying in yesterday's Chroniclo that there is nothing majestic about Berlin. On the other hand, it is cer tainly handsome and Imposing. It is the only modern city I know of that has managed to escape looking artifi cial. Tho labor of building Creater Berlin has been most dexterously hid den. There Is very little of the deadly uniformity, the Euclidian lines tho pro.;nle precision one notices in New York. Il'.-rlin Is something consldera- ' bly better than a mere chessboard of brick and stone and mortar. The streets have a curved and enticing spaclrupnors; they aro shaded with avenues of trees, faultlessly asphalted and clean with a cleanliness surpass ing that of Paris. The architecture is rather too flonld for English tastes; but for all that decidedly effective, and a drive from Unter dor Linden to CharlottenburB will take one past a finer succession of houses than either Indon or New York can show. And even the official architecture, In spite of the Kaiser's directing patron age, has Its points. There aro no statues In the Siegesallee quite so un forglveablo as those In Central Park and tho streets of London." London Chroniclo. j Man Lives In a Glass House. Tonopah, Nov., enjoys the unique distinction of numbering among its in-, habitants a man who lives In a glass house. In consequence of the scar- , city and high prices of building mate rial, William F. Peck, a miner, con-1 structed of empty bottles a bouse 18 feet by 20 feet, with celling '8 feet high, containing two rooms. The in side walls are plastered with mortar. Polygamous Monarcha. No less than six foreign inonarchs with whom the United States and other great Christian powers maintain diplomatic relations, accrediting min isters plenipotentiary to tholr courts, ! practice polygamy.

I When tho Nntlonal Irrigation Con gress met In Portland It heard n re port on tho Irrigation work carried on at Belle Fourcho, S. D. There are larger undertakings upon which parts of tho $25,000,000 approprla-. ted by Congress are being spent, but nt no place nro the possibilities for reclaiming land greater. In the tract aepregated for Irrigation there are 4 65,000 acres, on both Bides of the Polio Fourche Hlver. Tho projoct has under way the construction of two lminenso dams Tho first will be more than 4 00 feet In length and will serve to divert the waters of tho Hello Fourche Hlver, Grow, Owl, Indian Horse, and Willow creeks Into a canal leading to the main reservoir. This canal will bo six and a hnlf miles long, forty feet wldo at tho bottom nnd fifty-eight foot wide at the waterllne. The dam to hold back tho water in the main reservoir will be between 4,000 and 6,000 foot In length. 125 feet high, 500 feet thick at the base and 100 foot wldo on top. Tho total cost will be $3,000,000. This obstruction will Impound a lake ten miles long and three tulles wide at Its broadest point. The conn try which will surround this artificial hake is mo3t picturesque, being among the foothills of tho famous Black Hills. Writes Flywheel Inmirnnce. Only one company issues flywheel Insuranco because only one man enn write It. He Is monarch of all his Inspectors survey; his right there Is none to dispute. Two years ngo he was a professor in a small engineer ing college with some theories and figures of his own about flywheels. His success is largely duo to his own formula, for flywheel Insurance Is almost pure mathematics. When a whool Is revolved at a high enough speed the centrifugal force exceeds the centripetal and the wheel flies apart. Solid cast Iron explodes when the speed at the rim Is, roughly, three miles a minute. A thick rim explodes Just as easily as a thin one of the same material. Wood explodes at a greater speed. Jointed Iron at a less. The underwriter allows a rim speed of a mile a minute, one third the explosion rate, as a safe limit for solid iron wheels. This permits a two foot pulley wheel sixteen revolutions a second, while it keeps a sixteen foot flywheel down to two. A Jointed wheel Is allowed still less. The un derwriter has only to name the num ber of revolutions he authorizes, and to proportion his premium to the size of the wheel. Tho larger the wheel, of course, the more destructive its explosion. Leslie's Magazine. M. Huthncr, Norway's statesman and soldier, urged that no concessions be made to Sweden. Ho is the Goernment's auditor. Tailor's Life Saving Cout. A London tailor has Invented a new llfo saving coat and gaiters, with which It Is possible for a person clothed therein to maintain an up right position when Immersed In the water, even If not possessing any knowledge of swimming. The coat resembles in appearance an ordinary pilot cout, but it Is fitted with an air belt, which is inflated with air through a tubo. The guiters each weigh two pounds and are fitted with two brass wings or blades fas tened to the back of the heol. As the wearer moves his foet in the water these wings open and shut, and uot only propol the wearer along like oars but enable him to maintain as upright position from the waist up ward in tho wator. A practical demonstration of the utility of tho invention was recently undertaken In the River Thames by the Inventor und Its efficiency and life saving qualities clearly shown, even when moving against the tide. Scientific American. Digging for Fish. The natives of certain parts of In dia are In the habit every year, In the summer, of digging the dry river banks for fish, which they dig out by hundreds, just as they would pota toes. The lumps aro broken open, and the fish, perhaps 8 or 10 Inches long, will be found alive, and often frisky, as if Just removed from Its supposed native element, the water.

Want Bhortfr Hours Railroad Employees Will Makt a Concerted Move to Secure Them Preparations sire under way for a concerted movement on the part of the big railroad brotherhoods to .secure a reduction of the present working liouis for railway employ ees all over the country. The move ment already has been discussed in the grand councils of the older. It is said that it will assume defi nite form within the next two months. The grievance committee of many western roads will gather in Chicago in December at the same time the schedules govern wages and hours will expire on at least thiee western roads, the North-western, the Burlington and the St. Paul. According to plans now laid the opportunity will te seized to broach the proposed de mands of the employees. The pres ent hours cf work on the railnads range from ten to fourteen, hut in no case are they fixed. This is due to th? nature of the employ ir.ent. Tlie l.ro'. herhoods, it is said, have no intention of appealing for a limited work day. They have planntd to seek a gtiieral reduction which shall be proportionate iu alt b auches cf the railroad service. ........ . r Good Iuveutment of One Dollar.
