More than three months ago the 9AZETTK called Mr. S. M. Young's attention te the frauds which he was perpetrating upon the people of Terre Haute through the wi!d cat insurance of which he is the local head and from time to time since that date has reminded him that he is, in effect, carrying on a system of robbery which uses forgery, either .on his own part or OT the part of others with his knowledge, as one of the means of making it success!cl. Mr. Young still presista in carrying on this nefarious business. aud apparently tinds people who are not informed of tlie crookedness of the concern which he represents and who have not the sagacity to detect the fallacy of his arguments. lie has claimed^ that the Standard, which be represent#, is an execution to the wild eat companies of similar constitution, and is all right, but the following from Ohio, where the company! originated, ^ill show the falsity of his claim: Hpet lal IMsjmteh to the Enquirer.

CoiA"Mm:s, (., Jan. 19.—For some time there has been a secret, but official, investigation going on as to the manner in which some of the Mutual Aid Associations of the State are conducting their cooperative life insurance business, and the most corrupt practices have been disclosed, outranking even the worst phases of grave-yard insurance In Pennsylvania. These practices have been known for some time and not disclosed, in older that the ends of justice might be met, but the work of the examinations is leaking out, and at any rate the petitions for prosecution is the Supreme Court will soon be ready for tiling. The companies involved so far are the Bellefontaine Mutual Aid Association, the Standard, of Mansfield, and the West Middleburg Association, of Logan county, and the results of the examination into other Associations will soon be known. Considerable surprise is manifested over the discovery that the officers of the Belleflontwiue Association have permitted speculation in certificates, and have a lot of claim 8 for which they have noininde assessments as yet, because it would bring more than the members would stand in the way of assessments. The Standard, of MariBfield. is managed by Anderson, who gained so much notoriety as an assessment manipulator while General Manager of the State Mutual Aid Association iu this city. It is claimed thai this Association refused to show its minute books, but other records disclosed enough to satisfy the examiners that the officers insured "old and dying men, themselves held the certificates in the office for speculation, and assessed as often as it was possible for them to do so.

The Association of West Middleburg is a family concern. Joel Haines is President, one of his sons Secretary and another Treasurer and Manager. They are said to hold a large number of certificates on decrepit old creatures for personal profit, and that when assessments are levied exceptions arc made on the certificntes held themselves. They formerly ran a little grocery, aud now they are issuing certificates by the hundred and doing a land office business

Tne modus operandi of the operations for speculations in ull of these companies is said to iudude the most flagrant practices of forgery. These officers have to send out their notices for assessment certified to by witnesses of the death and a physician. The parties insured know nothing of the risk on their lives and none of their friends. It is claimed that cases have been traced down showing that in getting the benefit of these assessments the speculating officials forged the names of physicians and ot wituesses to the death, and had fictitious names printed on the notices, and thus abstracted the asses.ments, which went to no beneficiary, but into their pockets, and it was from* $1,000 to $3,000 in each case, making a regular bonanza. The assessments of tbis class were made as frequent as the fleeced members could stand, and just claims of members that died and wtre regularly taken in were held back, so that while the' speculating managers ot the brace box were getting rich the beneficiaries were not getting their dues st all, and in m!any cases being glad to compromise and settle lor one-half wr OLe-third of what the certificate called for.

On the information gained by this examination, petitions will soon be filed by the Attorney-General in the Supreme Court,and/ the bottom will drop out of many Associations of the mutual order in Ohio, "there are mftpy of these honestlv and caraittlly managed, but a system which certainly"

A REPORTER of the Norfolk (Va.) Ft'rginian, recently referred in that paper to a nversation with Prof. Cromwell, the world-renowned art exhibitor, whereia he states that he bad some year or so before suffered excruciating torments from rheumatism, and that he had tried all kinds of medicines and so callcd cures— all without effect. He heard, however, of St. Jacobs Oil, and resolved to give it a trial, which he he did, and he stated that its effect on bim was almost magical. A

complete cure was effected, and since then he has never suffered from rheumatism. But in order that he might beat all times prepared for the enemy, he never traveled without carrying in his trunk a bottle or so of St. Jacobs Oil.

THE ftmeral ot the late J. II. O'Boyle was largely attended. It was conducted by Teire Haute Lodge 51. The directors of the Savings Bank attended in a body.

Ftom the Advocate.] SHE HAS OUTLIVED HEB USEFULNESS.

Not long since, a good-looking man in middle life came to our door, asking for "the minister." When informed that he was out of town, he appeared disappointed and anxious. On being questioned as to bis business, he replied: "I have lost my mother, and my father lies here we have come to lay her beside him."

Our heart rose is symathy, and we said: "You have met with a great loss." "Well—yes," replied the strong man with hesitancy, "a mother is a great loss in general, but our mother had outlived her usefulness. 8he was in her second childhood, and her mind was grown as weak as her body, so that she was no comfort to herself and was a burden to everybody. There were seven of uSj sons and daughters, and us we could not find any one who would board her, we agreed to keep her among us a year about but I have had more than my share of her, for she was too feeble to move when my time was out, and that was more than three months before her death. But then she was a good mother in her day, and toiled very hard to bring us up."

Without looking at the,face of the heartless man we directed him to the house of a neighboring pastor, and returned to our nursery. We gazed on the merry little faces which smiled or grew sad in imitation of ours—those little ones to whose ear no word in our language is half so sweet as "mother"—and we wondered if the time would ever come when they would say of us:

There she lies now in her coffin, cold and stili, she makes no trouble now, demands no love, do soft words, no tender little offices. A look of patient endurance, we fancied, aim) an expression of grief for unrequited love, sat on her marble features. Her children were there clad in weeds of woe, and as an irony we remembered the strong man's words: "She was a good mother in her day."

When the bell ceased tolling] the strange minister rose in the pulpit, liis form was very erect and his voice strong, but his hair was silvery white. He read several passages of .Scripture expressive of God's compassion to feeble man, and especially of his tenderness when the gray hairs are on him and liis strength faileth.

He then made some touching remarks on human frailty, and our dependence on God, urging all present to make their peace with their Master while in health, that they might claim his promises when heart and health failed them. "Then," he said, "the eternal God shall be thy refuge, and beneath thee shall be the everlasting arms." Leaning over the desk, and gazing intently on the coffined form before him, he then said reverently: "From a lit.tle child 1 have honored the aged but never till gray haii covef ed my own head did I know truly how much love and sympathy this class have a right to demand of their fellow-crea-tures. Now I feel it." "Our mother," he added most tenderly, "who lies in death before us, was a stranger to me, aa are all of these, her descendentR. All I know of her is what her son has told me to-day—that she was brought to this town from afar, sixty-nine years ago, a fl ippy bride—that here she has passefl most of her life, toiling as only mothers ever have strength to toil, until she had reared a large family of sons aud daughters—that she left her home clad in the weeds of widowhood, to dwell among her children and that till health and strength left lier—God forbid that conscience should accuse any of you of ingratitude or murmuring on account of the care she has been to you of late.'*.

But on the other hand there is stteh force in one'." ability to carry a point by the simple process of making everybody uncomfortable until it is accomplished, that one may well pausv in deciding the respective claims to superiority of those two very different sorts of talent. It is true that in the fable the sun made the traveler take off'hi* cloak whereas the wind made him draw it more closely about him, and the story is told to illustrate the superiority of gentleness to bluster. •But it is to be borne in mind that only by making itself disagreeable aud the traveler uncomfortable did the sun suc1

The woman who, beginning an acquaintance with her persistent suitor, by a little wholesome aversion, ends by marrying him, "in order to get rid of him," pays a practical and overwhelming tribute to the advantages arising from a capacity to make ones self an insufferable torment.

They know that by beginning early and being constant in prayer, there is nothing from a sealskin sack to a house with a mansard roof that is not possible to them.
