THE GRP.
Washington a Rich Field for
the Scourge.
WORSE THAN CHOLERA.
Why the Life Insurance Busi
ness is a Paying One at
the Capital.
Washington, D. C., January 5.
me capital nas Deen Overrun with la
grippe for two months. During the former
epidemic of this dread and mysterious
scourge Washington suffered more per
haps than any other city in the country in
proportion to its population. Hundreds of
well known men were stricken with it,
and many of them died. In the govern
ment departments and in congress it seems
that every other man one meets has suffered
with this disease. Two-thirds of them sor
rowfully confess they will never again be
the men they were before that mysterious
visitation. More than one promising career
in public life has been cut short by the loss
of vitality, the depreciation of energy,
brought about by the modern destroyer,
la grippe.
Attacks Newcomers.
Dr. Hamilton, the celebrated surgeon,
tells me la grippe has cost more lives ana
broken down more men in Washington
than would be the result if cholera were to
visit the city. There appears to be some
thing in the sanitary condition of the cap
ital which induces a spread of this disease.
It ravaged the city two years ago and is
now once more on its rounds. Washing
ton is healthful enough in most particulars.
It is a clean, well drained city, but ma
laria is its worst and most persistent en
emy. The physicians say this tendency to
ward malaria weakens the vitality of men,
particularly of newcomers to the city who
have not as yet become fully acclimated,
and leaves them a prey to the European epi
demic which we call by the French name.
It thus happens, oddly enough, that a
change of administration in Washington
increases the death rate. It brings to the
city a large number of men and women
who soon feel the insidious influence of this
malarial spot and fall victims to grip, con
sumption, fever or other diseases which
flourish upon a low vitality. If one were
to say, looking at the matter from the
Washington standpoint, that the election
of Cleveland brought the grip scourge upon
us, he would be laughed at, and people
would inquire what ot her woes are to be
charged up to Mr. Cleveland’s account.
Yet this statement, broadly, and for the
indirect reasons already given, would be
literally true.
It Affects Life Insurance.
La grippe has left so many men in this
country in an enfeebled condition that the
life insurance companies, always keenly
awake to the newest wrinkles affecting the
mortality rates, have added a new question
to the long and formidable list of inquiries
which they fire at candidates for insurance.
It is, “Have you had la grippe?” An af
firmative answer to this question does not
necessarily prevent the applicant getting a
policy. But if his general health is a little
under par, if he has some unfavorable
symptoms or tendencies, or if his family
history is not as good as it should be from
the standpoint of longevity, the fact that
he has had la grippe may ci.use his rejec
tion. It may be the last straw that breaks
down the life insurance camel.
A western senator who is in the prime of
life and who has. always regarded himself
and been' considered by his friends to be
perfectly sound was much surprised a few
days ago when a life insurance company re
jected his application for a policy. When
he pressed the company for an explanation,
they told him it was ti ne he seemed sound
and strong, but his family history was not
favorable, his father having died at 45, his
grandfather at 50. and his mother and
grandmother at about the same age. “Be
sides,” said the life insurance man, “you
have had la grippe, senator, and the com
pany Is dreadfully particular about men
who have had the grip.”
Congressmau Hitt on Hurd Times.
Though the times are hard and ready cash
is scarce, the life insurance companies re
port their business as good as usual. If
there is any change over a year ago, it is for
the better. They explain this on the hypoth
esis, which seems reasonable enough, that
as men get into financfclglifficulries, or be
come
to other avenues of investment, they natu
rally turn to life insurance for their families
and for a form of investment about whose
soundness, if the company is wisely chosen,
there can be no misgivings. Two-thirds of
the life insurance written nowadays is a
combination of protection for the family of
the insured with investment for himself.
In hard times, or times of scanty operation
in new business enterprises, more men turn
to life insurance, just as real estate is al
ways the last value affected by a panic.
Congressman Hitt was talking about this
with your correspondent today, and he said
he semembers very well the panic of 1873
and the influence it had upon men in the
matter of investments. They did not like
to leave their money in the banks, and did
not wish to invest it in trade or manufac
turing. So they put it into real estate, on
the theory that realty was always sure. “I
know a number of instances,” said Mr.
Hitt, “of real estate purchases at that time
made by men who simply did not know
what else to do witu their money. Because
of the panic they thought the prices low,
and as soon as times improved they expect
ed to closeout at good profits. Those men,
or their estates, are holding that property
today, having never been able to realize as
much for it as they paid in the midst of the
panic of 1873.”

quired to obtain a photograph in a coal
mine as in the average metal mine, as not
only is the coal itself black, but the dust
from the coal darkens all parts. It is very
difficult to keep the lens clear of moisture
and coal dust, as sometimes a sudden blast
of damp air will cloud the lens at the last
instant. Magnesium smoke, moreover,
hangs about for a long time. Mr. Hughes
considers it best to photograph when the
air current is along the line between object

there is much greater tendency to “un

WAR BETWEEN TOWN§.
Bloody Battle in Which the Marshal Was
Killed and Many Wounded.
Webster City, la., Jan. 4.—City Mar
shal James Larson, of Dayton, is dead,
and many of the citizens are seriously
wounded, including Frank Doud,United
States marshal for Montana under Pres
ident Harrison; John Gustofson, a mer
chant who is badly cut, and William
Burton, an itinerant minister. All this
is the result of rivalry between the towns
of Dayton and Frazier.
Nearly 200 miners went from Frazier
to Dayton the other night to settle up
old scores. They first visited the dance
hall and drove the women out and as
saulted the men. The citizens of Dayton
quickly armed themselves and gathered
in the public square.
When the Frazier crowd entered
Tucker's restaurant and commenced to
demolish it the first shot of the night was
fired. Marshal Larson was pleading
with the men to leave the town, when
some one sent a ball through his body,
causing death. When this news reached
the public square the men there started
towards the restaurant. Although out
numbered two to one, they made a good
fight. A bullet passed through the hat
of Nicholas Murray, and it was no un
common thing for a shot to enter an arm
or leg. After the fight most of the Fra
zier men went home, taking along their
wounded. About 80 remained and went
to drinking.
Twenty men, each carrying a Win
chester, paraded the town in the morn
ing. In the afternoon this armed patrol
arrested nine miners on a charge of mur
der and riot. This almost precipitated
another battle.
There is a company of militia at Fort
Dodge and one at Webster city. Both
were held in readiness to answer a call.

Waycross, Ga., Jan. 4.—Some time
ago an old man who claimed to be a de
tective, came here, as he said, to look for
blind tigers and moonshine stills. He
was a cripple, and appeared to move
about with great difficulty on account of
his deformity. Suddenly the old man
disappeared.
He had frequently spoken of a gang
of gypsi® B were operating a moon
shine still in the Satilla riv«g swamp be
low here, and it was thought that he had
gone down to investigate the report. It
seems that those who had employed the
old man to come here became uneasy
about him as time passed on and
nothing was learned of his whereabouts.
Finally two detectives came here and
made inquiry concerning his mysterious
disappearance, and of what he had said
about moonshine stills and gypsies. The
detectives then went down io the gypsy
camp, but failed to get any information
about the missing man. They then con-
I eluded that probably he bad been foully
dealt with, and they began a search
! through' the surrounding country fol
him. In the river swamp they found
the skeleton of a man, but it could not
be identified.

MELLO’S DARING.
Peixoto Was a Spectator of His Passage
Out of Bio Harbor.
New York, Jan. 5.—A letter received
in this city from Rio de Janeiro says
that President Peixoto was the most in
terested spectator in Fort St. John, oi
the passage of the Aquiaaban out of the
harbor on the night of Dec. 1, and ths
fierce cannonading of the bar forts.
The writer states that Mello apparent
ly made no secret of his intention to gc
out, for everybody seemed to have known
It, and the three forts guarding the en
trance —St. John, Santu Cruz and Lage
—were all specially prepared for him.
He. moreover, did not take the precau
tion of putting out his lights, all of
which were burning brightly, so that
the ship looked, under the powerful
search lights that were continually train
ed upon her from the moment she began
to move down the bay, like an illumina
ted palace afleat.
"Peixoto was so greatly interested in
the contemplated move of his bold op-
Sonent,” the letter goes on to say, “that
e determined to go out to Fort St. John
and watch that particular thorn in hie
side, the Aquidaban, sunk, as he
thought. He saw what was perhaps the
most spirited engagement that has ever
taken place in Rio harbor, but he also
saw the Aqidaban emerge from it appar
ently unharmed, and certainly bolder
and more defiant than ever.
"Just as she passed Villegagnon this
friendly fort opened fire with its heavi
est guns on the other three forts, to dis
tract their attention. The Aquidaban
fired her first gun when within about 200
yards of Lage, and when fairly between
St. John and Santa Cruz belched forth
from both sides apparently with every
available piece of artillery. The distance
between Santa Cruz and St. John is
only one mile and 97 yards. You may
therefore form an idea of the risk Mello
ran.”

HIS WIFE GONE,
And with Her Goes Henry Marcus' Je-.rel
»ud Cash.
New York, Jan. 4.—Jeweler Henry
Marcus, of One Hundred and Forty-sec
ond street and Third avenue, mourns the
loss of a wife, $2,000 worth of jewelry
and S4OO in currency. They all disap
peared between 1 and 4 a. m. Christmas
morning, and the jeweler believes they
went together. The Morrisania police
have offered him lots of good advice, but
their efforts at locating his wife have
been fruitless.
"We were married eight years ago,”
said Marcus. "We never had any chil
dren. I bought this place three years
ago and have been doing pretty well.
We saved all we could and lived in these
rooms behind the store. My wife occu
pied a room further back, and a cteor led
from her room into the hall. When I
got up Christmas morning my breakfast
was not ready, and my wife, my money
and every valuable piece of jewelry I
had were gone. The door leading into
the hall was locked and the key was
gone.
"I don’t believe she has eloped, al
though rny friends try to make me think
so. My wife bad acted strangely for sev
eral days before her disappearance, and
I believe that she was demented. I an
pealed to the police, told them my fears,
and suggested that a man be sent to Ho
boken to search outgoing steamers. It
was not done.”
Some of the jeweler's friends laughed
at his theory of his wife's dementia.
They talked about elopement, and spoke
of some young man whom Marcus had
trusted and befriended nt various times,
and who disappeared about the same
timg that the woman vanished.
