Ttue flames , originated Croix the explosion of Quint A Cumin:cis Sionr.—Any one happen ing,intothe fifth story of Oak Ball last Monday morn ing, at about eight o'clock. would have looked upon a strange steno; There; at `-along table. - extending across the room, were five doctors, with all thit para. phertialia of their profession, and, attending them, as many clerks With pen in hand busily at work on a pile of papetwppread out before them. About this group were gathered * host of men, the emPlovtia of the establishment; some hundred or more: in nuMber. with Mr. Wanamaker himself in their midst. They were of all ages and sizes, from little Milton, Wanamaker 'a messenger, up so gray-haired old men already, past three score. It was evident enough that all were interested.in what was transacting, and their smiling faces and frequent laughter showed that ,they were not more interested than Pleased. ' The impresaion most apt to be given at first sight was that we were back again in war times, and that all these were volunteers eager to enter the service, and now being examined as to their physical fitness by the Board of Medical Examiners. And the first Inti mation of the real character of tbe business came from seeing Mr. C. B. McLean, the manager far "The American Life Insurance Company," busy amon g th e men,eiidently superintending "aJob," while Mr. John S. Wilson, the Company's enterprising Secretary and Treasurer, smiled upon thescene with evident statis t-fiction. " WO this chre,tho explanation of the scene was easy enough. Christmas is at hand, and it is the habit of wanamsher & Brown to make Christmas presents to their employes. Casting about for something that would be of real Value and eatisfaetion to the Men, Mr. Wanamaker, with his usual, practical-appreciation of thar want?, had hit upon a policy of Life Instirance is "The American" of this city, as the very best gift that he could place in their t ands. he idea was a most excellent one, and was acted upon immediately. A single conference with Mr. McLean, on Saturday last, sufficed for the full ma turing of the arrangement of the plan, nd on Monday morning, as We have seen. "The American" took fall poesersion of the immense clothing house at Sixth and Market streets, and in the space of six hours had made out •One Hundred and Thirty-three applications. for amounts ranging from one thousand to fifteen thou sand dollars each. and amounting In all to nearly Two Hundred. 'Ttionsturd "Dams. Oa these applications policies were immediately made out, the Premiums paid by the firm, and cm Chrlatmas day each ealesmtur, cutte.r and tailor in the employ of our "Largest Clothing Rouse" will have on his life an insurance of at least one thousand dollars; a sure • provision •against his family being left, In any event, entirely destitute. . It took a generous heart to conceive the gigantic beriefaction, and a will accustomed to prompt and re solute action to execute it ;fur any one at all aztquamted with the rates of Life Insurance knows that it is no trifle to • assume it one jump the premiums of nearly Two Rundred Thousand Rollers. -- These policies'are all non-forfeitable after two or 4' three payments, and eo very soon assume a real money value; but, so far as that is concerned, Mr. Wanamaker 1111 already negotiating with "The Ameri can" to assume himself the renewal of all these poli cies for eo long as the men may continue in his em ploy. It was a grand'day's work for "The American," a pleasing surnriee and welcome present to the men,and a noble deed on the part or Mr. Wanamaker, worthy the imitation of other of our leading and. most enter prising business houses. . fooroonnenic ALBUMS.—Frank Moore, No. i 2) South Eighth street, and No. 1304 Chestnut street, has on hand the most complete and elegant assort ment of Photographic Albums to be found in this city or elsewhere.
