SHAW, GEOROE BROWN- 11. W. THOMAS, X. W. WAI.DRON, MILTON LOOMIS, C. L. SQUIRES Protecting the Widow. The subject of building and savings as sociations on a partly new plan is attract ing attention. In the old associations, in the event of death the widow of the workinginan often has no way of contin uing the monthly payments,and the prop erty is seized by the association, which sells it to the highest bidder. Of course she receives back the savings of the fam ily, with six per cent interest, provided the property has noL depreciated in value. The new plan provides for the widow's protection by associating with the old style of payment of monthly dues the new feature of paying a small sum additional per share as an insurance fund. This in surance fee enables the society to guar antee to the family of any deceased mem ber the commutation of the payment ot monthly dues without cost to the widow, children or other heirs, until the society runs out. Suppose a man has six shares on which he pays SO a month. He also pays twenty cents extra per share per month for his insurance fee, making his entire monthly payment $7.20. At the end of the year he has paid SI 4.40 for his I insurance. The society has received it I and he, as one of the members, has still} an interest in it. Suppose he buys out his six shares and receives SIOBO, for which he purchases a home. If he dies a week after the purchase, the widow at once becomes the possessor of a home, and the building association keeps up the monthly payments. All members of the society are exam ined by a doctor the same as in any insu rance company. Members between 21 and years of age only are taken. The mean therefore is lis years. Ordinary life insurance for SIOOO for one year in old line companies on persons 38 years of I age costs more than $14.40 paid to the j building association each year. After a building association has been in progress a few years its membership generally numbers about 400. All together they I hold about l,f00 shares. Each month I therefore the society receives $1,300 as j dues paid in and SBOO insurance fund. j The insurance fund amounts to SB,OOO j per year. If no one dies that year the! amount becomes a reserve fund. If at any time a member who has been lu good standing for any period finds that lie can j not continue his payments, lie can draw ! out all the money he has paid in tor dues j with six percent interest, but his insur ance money he forfeits. In a trial of the sheaf binding machines at the Koyal Agricultural Society exhibi tion at Derby, England, there were nine competitors. McCormick's harvesting • I machine of Chicago, was awarded the ! first prize and gold medal, and \V. .John son's harvester of New York, the silver! medal. There is a White House problem which the Burtalo Express, bright and penetrat ing as ili s,professes itself unable to solve. "A great deal of money," it says, "is an nually spent in repairing the White House. The sum during the last fiscal year was j $30,000. These repairs are supposed to be heating, plumbing, etc., but there is neither yentcllation nor plumbing. Who can understand government affairs? What private citizen could spend $150,000 a year on house repairs, and still have his house eternally out of repair?" The Express has evidently run against one of those things "which no fellow can find out." There are several of them in Wash ington. When Sitting Bull heard of the killing of Spotted Tail, he said it was a lit end ing for a fool. Bull claims that lie sur rendered when he should have kept on the war-path. Two squaws were caught carrying ammunition and guns into Sit ting Bull's camp. He undoubtedly means mischief, and if lie says a word many young bucks at the agency will follow him. Trouble may be expected at any moment unless more troops are sent to that vicinity. The funeral of Gen. Robert Patterson was largely attended. The pall-bearers included Generals Grant, Sherman, Por ter and Hancock, John Welsh and Judge Biddle were present and Generals Selio fleld, Sickles, Ilartranft, and Congress man Kelly.
