The Illinois Life Insurance Company.
The Illinois Life ■ Insurance
Company is spoken of as follows
in “The Spectator.” This is the
leading life insurance magazine
of the country and is published
at New York. It says;
“The Illinois Life Iusnmuce Com
pany’s statement, issued early in Janu
ary, is tho record of another highly suc
cessful year for this young Western in
stitution. Tho results of tho business
during 1808 should be very gratifying
to tlie company's polioyholders, agents,
and to tlie management. Daring tlie
year the company increased its insur
ance in fierce to 186,500,000, and it paid
to beneficiaries and polioyholdert. in the
way of dividends, annuities, cash bene
fits and endowments, $780,000, mean
while inoreadng its net admitted assets
by almost $1,000,000. The fact that not
withstanding the large increase in poll-
oy reserve liability a gain was made in
aorplns of over fifteen per cent of the
increase in liability, is especially note
worthy and commendable. Tlie sclied-
nle of the company’s net admitted as
sets of *.’.,015,058 shows weU-distribnted
investments. The broad and progres
sive spirit that in a comparatively few
years made Chicago one of tlie great
cities of the world seems to permeate
the management and agenoy force of
this typical Western company, and to
be making of it an institution of which
Baiubridge was the scene of an
awful tragedy .Saturday morning
which resulted in the death of Mr,
Joliu Hunter and the wounding of
Mr. Mercer Baggs. The two young
men'had been partners iu the
furniture business, but had dis :
solved partnership. There was
some difficulty about the settle
ment of accounts and it was known
that bad blood existed between
the two men, but no one expected
a tragedy.
The two met just in front of the
old court house square on Broad
street, and without notice to any
one began firing at each other,
,Iu all eleven shots were fired
both pistols being emptied and
when the smoke cleared away
Hunter was found upou the ground
dying and Baggs seriously wound
ed by a bullet in the arm and
nock.
Hunter was shot in the breast
and groin, four bullets taking ef
fect, death issuing almost instant
ly, or as soon as he could, be mov
ed to his room ot the Bon Air.
Boggs was shot in the uock and
arm. The former is a flesh wound
and the latter' painful but not
dangerous.
Both young men were well
known here Hunter was an am
ateur ball player aud had ofton
played iu Thomasville. His re
mains were met hero on the 2:15
p. in. train by his father Dr. Hun
ter of Qnitmnn and Mr. M. Baum
He was buried in Quitmipi Sun
day.
