STATE INSURANCE OVER $700,000 premiums to Constitute Liabil ity Fund Are Reaching Vast Proportions i " ' Belief that the j « State Insurance: ?

The amount ©f business offered to the State fund has been greater than expected and there has been a big payment of pre miums In the last ten days. All of the income from premiums has been sent to the Corn Exchange National Bank, of Philadelphia, which ■was designated as the official deposi tory for the Workmen's Insurance Fund and some of the money will be Invested without delay so that money not needed for immediate use will earn. Thus far only one death en tailing liability payment from the State fund has been reported. About the Capitol there is con siderable interest in whether some of the employers who took short term liability insurance from stock or mu tual companies for sixty days will not enter the State fund. The payment of j State fund premiums has run any- i ■where from $5 to $150,000.

Quite in contrast is the scene where Manuel (Orrln Johnson) is herd ing n flock of sheep in a beautiful green valley. An effective touch appears when Manuel spies a stray lair' and picks it up. Then there is a typical ilesta or carnival in which flowers and gaily colored confetti and streamers are thrown over the dancers an
