HIS MALADY DUE '10 CIGARBTS, AND IU‘L'S LIKELY TO RECOVER. New Bnnxswrcx, May 28 ~Elmerl Hardy, the 19-year-old son of James! Hardy. ol’ New street, who was attacked with wuvnlsions, at first believed to be hyilrnplrobia, is somewhat easier, but is yet in :1 very precarious state. Dr. .ll..:btr, his physician, now says the your: man's trouble is beyond all doubt 1'... "t-éllli. ol‘ ciguret smoking. During lzi=i night the convulsions grew less l'rc- oi: oi, and the sufferer obtained about two hours’ sleep. Consciousness has rctuwntd, but ail power of speech is paraiyZed, which the physicians say is ..ihe result of the strain to which the liilchics oi the tongue and throat have been subjected. The patient still kept his hands clutched over his heart, in- dicating trouble in that organ. The l::ll'1‘ cniwulsions have not been accom- pau'ed ly tl.e barking sound and the mapping so marked at. first. Young Hardy has always been a :vcry steady and well-behaved boy. It is now known that as soon as his work was finished the cigar-ct was never absent from his mouth. This afternoon Dr. Barber raid that, if no unfavorable symptoms set in while the boy’s system is weaken~ ed from the terrible ordeal through which he has passed, he may yet recover. He does not regard the paralysis of the vocal organ likely to be permanent. 1-. Wild Animals in Possession of a Ship. The annexed incident, of such recent ancnn'enco, proves what would be the hapless consequences, but for the re- straining powers of the Most High, as exercised upon the brute creation. lleoce, how mercif'ul was the announce- ment, after the flood, to Noah and his sons, “And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air. upon all that moveth upon the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea; into your hands are they delivered " (Gen. ix. 2). The overdue British barquc Margar- rl. (Captain Sargent), front the West Coast of Africa, arrived at Boston after a remarkable voyage. Captain Sargent said that, between the gnlcs and the nature of his cargo, he had an experience he does not wish again to meet. Besides a regular cargo, there were twelve snakes, one hundred cockatoos and parrots, an orangoutang, some monkeys, two crocodiles, and a gorilla, which he was bringing from Africa for a museum. Rats caused the death of oil but four of the cockatoos and parrots, by eating up all the corn that had been provided for them. During a gale the snakes and crocodiles broke out of their boxes in the hold, and invaded the l'orecastle, so that for five days the men could not venture into their quarters, but had to live in the cabins. These reptiles, along with the rats, kept up a continual war- fare,- until tno surviving crocodile killed the last snake, and completed the chain of vengeance by being killed during a fierce storm by some of the cargo falling on it. Duringthe scrimmage amongthem the monkeys took to the rigging, and stuck there despite all etiorts to dislodge them. Finally they were all washed away except four, which were captured. The worst passenger was a. five-foot g0rilla,_which was imprisoned in a stout wooden box. The top ofthis the animal forced off, but, though held by a chain, ‘ be had considerable play, and, getting possession of an iron bar, he Scht the decks. He wound up by partially scalp- iog the negro cook one day, and only letting go after he had been nearly kil- lod with an axe. All the men were more or less hurt by the beast, and he led them a lti of terror. â€"-â€"~â€"¢ -0 Baron do llirsch's mare Laflechc is now the favorite for the Derby.

The Royal Canadian offers the following advantages Over the London Mutual: l. [in building worth $1200 is insured for say $1000, the Royal Canadian is oblig- ed to pay $1000, it‘o loss occurs. In such a case the London Mutual is obliged to pay only two thirds oi‘the cash value, or $800. 2. Nu horse worth $90 is killed in the fields by lightning, the Royal Canadian is obliged in 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 $20. For other animals the loyal Conudinn pays the full value. The London Muiunl pays not more than $5, no matter how valuable the animal may be. 4. In the Royal Cunadinn animals an insured against lightning while at pnsturo 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 ot‘ the article. The London Mutual pays only two-third of the cash value, no matter what the in- surance may be. < 6. When “ ordinary contents " of out buildings are insured by the Royal Canadian ALL implements are included. lo the Lon- don Mutunl only one reaper and one mower are included, no matter how good others may be. 7. When the outbuildings are notjoiucd to each other the. Royal Canadian insures under one stun the “ordinary contents ” of all building not cut. oil‘ by at distance grent~ er than 40 it., the some as if the contcnia were all under one roof. The London Mr.- tnul requires a Separate sum on the con~ tents of each buildingI 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 port of the contract that standard STEAM rinmsnnna 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 Mutqu were obliged to run their own risk while threshing lost season, be- cause it was found to be impossible to com- ply with the conditions of their permit. When a. farmer pays for insurance he should secure a policy which will hold him sub when it is most required. 9. The Royal Canadian is obliged to pay 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 up as to be obliged to bor- row mouey 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 numerous variations against- the policy-holder printed in red ink on the buck of the London Mutqu policy. 11. As to security, the inspector of insu- rance reports that the Royal Canadian hnl $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 ilmt it has to the good the $100,000 cnpiiul paid in, cash by the shareholders, and u not surplus $117,007 making in all ii. total cosh surplus 'of $517,607 to protect its policy-holders against unexpected contingencies. In adâ€" ditiou to these cash items it hos n. subscrib- ed cnpitol of $100,000 not called up. Re- garding the security of the London Mutual the inspector reports that the amount of unearned premium it should have on hand is $200,309. To make up this nmountin cash a second cull would have to be mode on the premium notes for it large amount. leaving it surplus of only $74,2l0, even if there were no bud debts, and this surplus is made up wholly of the unpuid balance of pri mium notes already heavily assessed. The company reports the losses adjusted but unpaid ut the close of the your at $0.- 387, but the Inspector of Insurance find: that the liability for unpaid lossesut the end of the your was $20,280. The Cllrll on hand to pay these losses only amounted to $13,911. In view of the foregoing facts funnen will have no difficulty in deciding on to the company in which they should be insured.
