The Antics of “Bobs” on the

Dead Line.

The spectacle of_I_.ord Roberts, shriveled

it

and seventy,plunginsz into the smoke and struggle in South Africa and emerging with "the garter " in one hand and aduke

dom in the other, is exhilarating. and suggestive in view of "the dead-line-at fifty" discussion which has been in-sins for months past. Roberts, as an old man. who had fought his battles and won lil# medals, who had all to lose and nothing to gain, stayed at home during the early weeks of the war. _-\ndY0\1YlS0l` flifhfefhi Methuen and B-Jller --Bullet. lllllltffl bl admiring friends a human battering mm. who would smash through the B0€l`S 50 -Pretoria in the good old beefy British way~set out on the search for eaSy 81°F?- “W_ha_t they got is recent and painful history for England.

Roberts and Kitchener-the }'0ll“§°1`

mail was expected to do the bi;-1 lhlllgfi- were sent out as an eleventh-hour h0D€-

dropped out of sight. And in the ;,end ` was Lord Roberts, twenty years past the dead line, who fought out the war an won. \\'lien he found that the Boers did not do battle according to the books, he changed his tactics to suit their little ways. "Bobs" apparently did not know that he had been as good as dead for twenty years; and at seventy he sho wed ability to learn, to adapt himself to con- ditions instead of trying to conform them to his previous standards.

Itis futile to lay down general laws;

folly to apply them to individuals. Yet the dead-line at-fifty heresy has been

-accepted as gospel by somany people that.

it is worth foi‘owing up, with “Bobs” as a beacon. Undoubtedly there is a dead line. Some men have already passed it at .thirty; others never reach it till they follow a clergyman feet first out of church. But every man has crossed it when he feels that he knows his business and can rest on his knowledge.

A Faithful Wife.

When Frederick T. Moore embezzeled

$51,111) from the Bank_of Commerce of Boston and fied to Chili. his devoted wife followed him and shared his cell when he was discovered and arrested. While the United States has no extradition 'treaty with Chili it is customary for friendly governments to surrender such -criminals as Moore, and the civilized world issurprised at the announcement that Moore will not only be permitted to f-remain in Chili, but has been given his liberty. It is said to be wholly on account of the faithful wife, who has won the uzoodgraces of the authorities by her wifely devotion.

to its members and their dependents up- wards of two million dollars in insur- ance and sick and funeral benefits the society issues policies for $500, $1000, $1500 and $2000, the latter sum beingjthe limit of any life, and the premiums for the same are only 60 cts to $1 per month per $1000, according :to the age of the applicant. The death rate in the society was only 56 per 1000 of the membership in 1898, and the average death rate since the organization of the society was 4.94. The Sick and Funeral Benefit Branch

through an obtional feature, is very popu-

o

The benefits are $300 per week

first two weeks of illness and $2 per week for the succeeding ten weeB, altogether , $56 during any year, besides a. funeral benefit of $30. The fees for the same pay- able monthly in advance are from 25 cents to 45cents, according to the age of the member when joining the branch. During the year 1899 over $57,000 were paid out on sick and funeral benefits, and $158,000 in insurance.

There are now about 700 subordinate

branches or courts as they are called, throughout Canada, and the order is now _ well established in all the provinces and territories of the Dominion.

* - The Gold Position.

Affairs in South Africa. are progressing

slowly but surely toward a cessation of hostilities. When this shall have been ac- complished, the material increase in gold receipts at London cannot fail to benedt the general European financial situation.

The stock market will be particularly exposed for some weeks to come to shocks from either internationally or dc- mestic politics; and any rash bull operat- tions may be brought to a sudden termin- ation. Thereare both good and bad fea- tures in the situation; more- of each than f usual? so that't_h_e dimculty of calculating future movements is much greater than a 4 year ago, when the tide of prosperity was all one way. Now"-there are conflicting currents, and more ckre in avoiding treach- erous eddies willbe necessaryfthan usual.
