There is no reason loss should fall on a few series equalizing matters it can be borne he trouble is that too many societies are making a desperate effort to force up their percentage of profit and dislike to have # portion of each quarter's profits go into a sinking fund. For the same reason they class all premiums earned and unearned g protits. These' associations are willing to sacrifico safety to the publication of high docome rates.

He asked that his mail be kept, however, until his return to the city. Inquiry at the postofice showed that Adutt had called for a letter there and today a watch was kept at the general delive window. Soon a slight built, boyish looki young man stepped up to the window and in- quired for Adutt’s mail. Marshal Hitchcock was in attendance and 'ed the youth under arrest. When searched a Palmer house key was found in his pocket. It was found that Adutt had received word that the police were loaking for him and he nad moved over to the Palmer house, where he had registered under the name o Mueller. At his room in_the Palmer house two large trunks were found. They have been taken charge of by the marshal pending an exami- nation. Adutt has been living very moder- ately here.
