Hill's connection with the Equitable Life Insurance association was entirely proper and that the fees he received were not excessive for the services rendered Bitter partisans have in times gone by severely criticised the New York statesman’s political methods, but his personal and professional reputation has always been con- ceded to be above reproach In fact Hill's most implacable foes have candidly admitted that his in tegrity and personal character, both for honesty and morality, are unimpeachable, and the investiga: tion by the State Bar ascociation, invited by Mr. Hill himself, effect ually and completely wipes any stigma that might have been attached to his name by reason of his connection with the insurance company. In these times when the disreputable dealings of men of power and distinction have been exposed and grafters and boodlers everywhere are being relentlessly prosecuted and convicted, it must be a source of gratification to Mr Hill that during all his | career, both as an officer and a professional man hus rep station for honesty and integnty rem uns un. sullied. out ng publi ————— Excursions N.P.

The play 1s bubbling over with laughable incidents, but at the same time there 1s running throughout a deep, dark plot told in a fascinating style. The dramatic situations are strong and the large audience was kept in a state of ex pectancy until the fall of the cur- tain on the last act. The plays from the pen of Mrs. Addie Las Porte, who plays the emotional leading part, and 1s in every way calculated to please. A comedy honzontal bar team appeared for the first time last evening between the second and third acts and the tramp proved a winner. Aldo & Armour are the names of the young men, whose grotesque makeup and clever antics furnish uproanous fun for the audi ence. The team has been engaged for the entire weck and they are alone worth the price of admission. - - - Fat and Lean Men Modern sclentific Invest'gation In 1 medical way now that the plump man not necessarily the “healthiest” or the best a disease.
