PRIZE Fl ill’I‘EltS “'IIO RECEIVE PRINCE- I LY SALARlBS. l Young men nho desire to follow cc- cupatious which offer flattering pros~ peels orgnttinzalongin the world would do well to turn their attention to prize- tighting. Its pecuniary gains are en- ormous, and there is no profession in the United States at the present titne which pays better. An account of a prize fight is ot'general interest. but the Uitli.‘ account of prize fighting has hitherto escaped attention. Yet more fame in the "ring” is as nothing com- pared with a prize-fightcr’s income. Mr. John L. Sullivan's attempt to solve the problems oi dramatic art have excited langhtcr, and some people have been bald enough to say that he is not an actor, He is certainly not a Booth, :1 Salviui. or an Irving. Yet Mr. Sulli- van reociVes a salary higher than that ot'any actor in America. His art and genius command $2,000 a week. The art of self-defiance pays better than the art nl' Shakespeare. it is doubtful if_any actor in the world, except Sarah Bernhardt, \vonld command such a salary. Booth probably could not get it. A good actor who stands first in his particular line of actâ€" ing is glad to get $200 a week. But Mr. John L. Sullivan gets more than $2300 for standing on the stage five min cites. with a Grand street pose and a B Avery eloeution. lle earns more in live minutes than a first-class actor earns in a week. It is a striking exam- ple of the supcrority of matter to mind. Mr. Frank Slavin, of Australia, is another example of a man with immense earning capacity. His customary sal- . ary from theatre managers is the modest sum ‘ol $1,300 a Week. Mr. Charles Mitchell, of England, commands the. saint: salary as his colleague from the Antipodes. Mr. James Corbett is some what diilident on the salary question, and demands oply 8700 a week. Mr. l’rtrr Jackson, who hails directly or in- directly from the Congo Republic, I'v- ceires $3500 a week for sparring in theatres and halls. He is paid more lor one week’s service than the average Alto-Americanclergyman receives in a year. Mr Peter Muller, of Dublin, l‘c- ceives $1,000 a week. In prize fighting it is woe to the van- quished. This is true in a financial way as well as in every other way. While Mr. Sullivan gets $2,000 a week , and Mr. Jackson $500. Mr. Jacob Kil- raiu receives only $150 a week. Mr. Joseph McAulifie, who at one time was considered a coming champion, was de- feated by Slavic, and so he commands at present only $75 a week. Mr. Joseph Choynski was defeated by Corbett, and he accepts engagements at $75 a week Mr. James Duly, who was defeated by Jackson, gets $50 a week. Mr. Sullivan gets $2,000 a week for forty weeks a year, which gives him _ an annual income of $80,000. At. this rate he would make almosta million dollars in twelve years. His income is ten times as large as that of a first-class . actor, and three times as large as that , of .i first class lawyer or physician. He maker as much in one year as a college ,3.rol'c.~sor earns in twenty years. He root-ires higher compensation than any clergyman in the world. lt' Sullivan should save. his money, in a comparatively few years he would be a millionaire, and he would grow still riel-i-r by the annual inereasemeut ol , his fortune. If all the prize-lighters were saving, in the course oftime we should have such millionaire families as , th‘ Suliirans, the Slavins and the Cor hit“. The west successful of the prize- fi_lttel's would be among the richest neo- lil‘ in the United States. . ’l'he prim-lighter is a popular hero. .\ minister who is a scholar and a think- er uill preach to twenty people a sermon on which he has spent days of thought and labor.

It'n building worth $1200 is insured for say 51000, the Royal Canadian is oblig- ed to pay $1000, ifn loss occurs. In such a case the London Mutual is obliged to pay obliged to pay $90. The London Mutual pays only $60. 3. Fora. cow worth $30 killed by light- ning the Royal Canadian pays $30. The London Mutual pays only 820. For other animals the Royal Canadian pays the full value. The London Mutual pays not more than $5, no matter how valuable the animal maybe. ' , 4. In the Royal Canadian animals are insured against lightning while at pasture anywhere. In the. London Mutual they are insured while posturing on the premises of the insured only. 5. When articles are insured specifically? such as musical instruments, the Royal Canadian is obliged to pay the full amount insured up to the cash value of the article. The London Mutual pays only two-third of the cash value, no matter what the in- surance- mny be. 6. When “ordinary contents " of out buildings are insured by the Royal Canadian ALL implements are included. In the Lon- i don Mutual only one reaper and one mower are included, no matter how good others may be. 7. When the outbuildings are not joined to each other the Royal Canadian insures under one sum the “ordinary contents” of all building not cut otfhyu distance great- er than 40 tt., the some. as if the contents were all under one roof. The London Mu- tual requires a Separate sum on the con- tents of each building, if the distance is more than 12 ft. This is a very important difference in many cases. 8. In the Royal Canadian it is a part of the contract that standard STEAM 'runusunus may be used without a. special permit and without any restriction as to the distance from stocks or buildings, caretakers, pails of water, kind of fuel or direction of the wind. Many of the policy holders in the London Mutual were obliged to run tlfeir own risk while threshing last senson,be- cause it was found to be impossible to com- ply with the couditions of their permit. When a farmer pays for insurance he should secure a policy which will hold him safe when it is most required. 9. The Royal Canadian is obliged topny its losses within sixty days and usually takes much less. The London Mutual need not pay for ninety days, and since it has become so hard tip as to be obliged to bor- row ruoucy largely, it usually takes about the full time allowed. 10. The Royal Canadian policy is subject to the statutory conditions only. It has none of the nmncrous Variations against the policy-holder printed in red ink on the back of the London Mutual policy. 11. As to security, the inspector of insu- rance reports that the Royal Canadian has $202,758, the amount he estimates to be necessary to enable the company to carry out all its engagements with its policy holders. Besides this he reports that it has to the good the $400,000 capital paid in cash by the shareholders, and a net surplus $l 17,607 making in all a. total cash surplus of $5l7,607 to protect its policy-holders against unexpected contingencies. in ad- dition to these cash items it has a subscrib- ed capital of $l00,000 not called up. Re- garding the security of the London Mutual the inspector reports that the amount of unearned prcmiutn it should have on hand is $290,309. To make up this amount in cash a second call would have to be made on the premium notes for a large amount, teavingn surplus of only $74,2t8, even if there were no bad debts, and this surplus is made up wholly of the unpaid balance of pr. mium notes already heavily assessed. The company reports the losses adjusted but unpaid at the close of the year at $6,- 387, but. the Inspector of Insurance finds that. the liability for unpaid lOSScs at the end of the year was $30,286. The cash on ‘ hand to pay these losses only amounted to $13,911. In view of the foregoing facts farmersi will have no difficulty in deciding as to the company in which they should be insured.
