Inquiries have been made A9 to whether the city could not do this work as cheaply as individuals, and this was asked yesterday of a city official. He replied in the negative. reason why the city cannot do the work so cheap," said he, "lies in the fact that so many people who are hired by the city to do work for it try to gouge it and charge it far more than they would a private person. Mind you, I am far from saying all do, but some do I know, and An the most barefaced way. I heara of one case in one of the departments where a man put in a bill for $26.50 for doing certain work.

A kick was made on it, but the man stood out that it was right. It was agreed finally that the matter should be submitted to arbitration, and both sides agreed on the arbitrator. "Now, what do you suppose the arbitrator allowed? Why, just $8.50, one-third of the claim-and he said afterwards that really it should not have been more than TRAFFIC BLOCKED BY DERAILMENT The derailment of a freight car on Vaughn's Creek trestle, Just below Tryon, yesterday blocked the track effectively, "delaying all trains several hours.

SECURITY A life insurance company should be, and may be, the strongest of financial organizations. be, because its province is to guard the savings of the people; to protect widows and orphans, and to give support to those who are old and unable to support themselves. It may be, because of the uniformity of the workings of the "law of mortality" upon which it is based; because of the fixed scientific principles in accordance, with which it is conducted. because it is protected against the chief perils which are a constant ace to banks, trust companies, and other financial enterprises. There can be no "run" upon an insurance company; and experience has proved that a well managed life company, instead of suffering from a financial panic, can turn it to advantage by prudently investing surplus funds at a time when market values are depressed.

That what should be, and may be, is actually the case, 1x Illustrated in the position attained by the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States -a company whose reputation for financial strength, fair dealing and promptness is world wide. Write, "phone or call. W. J. RODDEY.

This unofficial and unauthorized advertisement will probably appear in The Citizen today unless business looks up in police circles, Thers is no doubt the town is quiet. and it is a very lonesome place for those who formerly loafed in bar rooms. Their old quarters are cold and cheerless, with a lot of workmen engaged in tearing out fixtures to fit the rooms for new occupancy, and making so much noise that there is no comfort there.

For a time a man could spend a pleasant two hours in hearing cases tried the warm police court, but now there are no cases to speak of, and if a man lingers by the register after court is over the police reject him. Yesterday was a typical day--just one case. John Kearns, a darkey, was charged with stealing about $1.50 worth of clothing, the property of the late J. D. Beale, and was held to Superior court in $200 bond.
