Car on Eustis St Leaves the Rails and Runs 20 Feet Along the Pavement Before Stopping. An electric ear jumped the rails on Eustis st near the corner of Renfrew at 10.30 yesterday morning. There were a score of passengers On the car.

Several were bruised. and many of the others were badly frightened. The car was numbered 2131. The conductor and motorman refused to give their names. The car was outward bound and was going at a.

high rate of speed. It left the track just before it reached Renfrew lit. It ran along more than 20 feet and was stopped by one of the iron poles on which the feed wires are strung. When the ear struck several passengers jumped. One man struck on his shoulder but was not seriously injured.

The car was only glightly Injured. a. TIIJ Profit from This Year's Experience. ifill A great many people, members of the Massachusetts benefit life association, have been thrown into a state of excitement and apprehension at the suggestion that they will be called upon for money to enable the beneficiaries of dead members to get 100 cents on the dollar on their claims. A Globe reporter has asked several well-known lawyers for an opinion on this question, as well as several leaaing life insurance officers.

and the replies were such that the members can afford to keep calm and refrain from adding to their sorrows brought about by their present losses. The receivers were asked if the members would have to make up the deficit to pay claims in full, and they said they did not know anything about it yet. There are a great many questions which the receivers will be called upon to set Readville Circuit Meeting Will Begin Today. their promise and dodge the New Eng- Only one can fill well.

The fact that the horses go to Dover next week, and that Rigby is to follow with a meeting, will help Porter.

I do not look for Narragansett to get much of an entry and it will not affect them half so much as the other places. Dover 'will have a cracking good meeting next week.

There is one sure thing. that the Hicks family study the interest of the horsemen, and will do all they can to entertain them. Rigby will give, in all probability, meeting after Old Orchard. This gives two weeks at Portland. for, following it, comes the Transylvania stakes at that place.

Naturally Frank Farnham, as the 1 manager of the fair, comes in for most of the roasting. This is as natural as 3 was unfair.

If anI man can show me how you can ten off a 10-hour program of horse. bicycle, exhibitions and cavalry drill between the hours of 1 and 6.30 I will patentee the respectful attention of the Rigby folks.

The moneys already In the possession of the company will require much legal consideration before they can be called assets of the association. and again there are funds paid to the company by members still living who believe that their claim for a return of a part of this sum is just as good as the claim of the beneficiaries of dead members. For instance here is a man who in paying his dues or assessments or premiums. whatever they may be called, was exceeding liberal in his estimate of the company's solvency and integrity and said: 'I am away a great deal and am liable to forget when my pre' are due. Here is a sum of money to pay all the assessments for the next two years." This brings up the question whetter all this money belonged to the company as assets or whether a part of It was trust funds which should find no place in the company's statement of assets.

and which should be returned to the person paying it just as conditional assessments were paid back or are to be paid back. There are not many who paid these sums in advance, but there are some 1 and the question will have to be decided and passed upon. Again. in the payment of the last assessment a great many people paid the call without stipulating that the money was to be refunded in the event of the company going under. Wiser ones sent their moneys conditionally, but It is a question to be decided by the courts whether the people Ignorant of business ways, and presumably the ones least able to afford it, will have to lose their money because they did not make this stipulation or whether all who paid the last call will get their money back.

Then there are people, a great many hundred such. who held policies upon which they knew, and it was admitted, they paid more than was necessary. They always understood, and it was part of the plan of the policy. that the money they paid over and above what the insurance actually cost was placed on one side, and when by their increased age the time came that their insurance cost more than the sum they paid these surplus payments of earlier years were to be used to keep their payments down to the old sum. Now.

the members who have surplus payments to their credit have an impression that when the division comes there must be some of these surplus payments for them, because the emergency fund was made up of these payments, and so they are more interested in this question than the one involving another assessment. to pay the death claims of others. and this matter will have to be passed upon by the court. On the question of the legality of an assessment to be Issued by the receivers a great deal can be said for the encouragement of those who would have to pay it. A great many assessment life companies have failed in Massachusetts, but there has never yet been an assessment made by receivers upon the members.

who were already losers in more or less heavy amounts. The supreme court has never yet given a decision upon the matter. The case quoted by another paper last week was a New York case, where the law is different to Massachusetts, and the company, too, was an accident company and not a life insurance company. In the original draft of the letter issued by leading policy holders recently to Massachusetts benefit life members. urging them to pay up, there was a paragraph stating that since they would have to pay anyway they would do better to pay and save the company than to have the company go under and still have to pay.

This paragraph was stricken out when the appeal came to a leading lawyer for signature, for it was his belief and that of many others that the members could not he called upon to pay after the company had failed. According to the attorney general. too. the members will not be held liable to pay assessments, for in his recent report to the governor he showed that the company was not a mutual company and the members had not the rights of MeTtlhers of a mutual company, for it was a close corporation and the members had I had no right to elect officers or to have a voice in the management. It was shown that there were no memhers other than the original ones who signed the agreement, and so, even if it should be decided that the members of a mutual life insurance association were liable for the full payment of death ceetificates, in all probability it would be shown by the court that this did not apply to the Massachusetts benefit members.

From out the much-criticised agreement there may yet come an ad- 1 vantage of which none of them have dreamed. Unknown Bicyclist Has Attacked Two but Was Driven AwayOthers TerrorIzed by His Actions.

which I much too low for his bight. The police of division 3 have been notined of his presence. but have been furnished with no satisfactory description. better off there from every point of view no one doubts. They proved themselves wholly incapable, careless of the rights of the horsemen, and not possessed of the first rudiments of knowledge of the ru.es.

As to the racing, It was as good as it could possibly be under the circumstances. When horses get an hour or more, and sometimes two hours. between heats, racing becomes unworthy of the name. Yet, at that, it was pretty fair to see, when you saw It. The real good things of the week were the win of Louis Victor over the much-touted Tommy Britton; the defeat of the 2.07 class by Roan Wilkes, the win of Gazette over Retina, Woodshed, Alcyo and that band; the continued victorious career of Monopole; the killing of the talent by Town Lady, and the handy walk-in of Bismark.

I have the satisfaction of being the only man, barring Charles Bassini, the owner of Louis Victor, who has thoroughly believed in the horse. I saw him go an easy mile, in the mud, in fourth horse place at Saugus, in 2.1514, and it would Le hard to make me believe it was not as good as 2.10. I set him to go there and he beat it last week, though the Rig-by Judges accommodatingly kept him in a slower class. I am going to increase the limit now, and set Victor to beat 208 acme day this year, bar accident. The talent played Prince Alert to beat Roan Wilkes.

Vassar, Ben Esperanza and the rest of the 2.07 pacers, but NA, 11- liam Beggs made it a cake walk for the roan horse la straight heats. I do not think any man can drive Alert better 1 than Birney, but ho made a bad drive with the hobbled borse in the first heat of the race. It may be that it made no difference In the result, but Alert surely went as good as 2.05 in that first trip. I telieve Prince Alert has get to be good and at himself to race with Roan Wilkes any time he is as good as he is now. The stud can go in four or five as sure as he can pace in 2.10, and so sure a performer is hard to find.

He races like a steam engine and acts very strong. Refina had an off week and did not race anything like she could at Old Orchard. Gazette won very handily, in-need, and proved himself a gallant old warrior. To my mind the hero of the race was I Woodshed. The pony had a cut in his foot that would have stopped a bulldog, but he tried as hard as if it was not there and went a grand race.

Monopole won a cracking race, and while I have seen Mart Dernarest make many a cracking drive. I do not think he ever landed what looked more like a forlorn hope. Almost any one can win with the best one, but Mart pulled this off with what looked like a beaten horse. John Cheney had John H. Shultz over to Lady race, and the mare royally entertained her owner with a most decisive victory over so good a mare as Morale.

Bismarck has bid adieu to the 2.20 trotting class. I hope the 2.15 fellows will have as short races as be has given the other lot. When they beat him they'll know they have been to the races. There was one thing done at Rigby that the management must be censured for. That was declaring off the 3-yearold class.

An association that made so much money showed bad judgment in keeping the youngsters so long under suspense and 'then calling it -oft. But, you will say. there were only two or three to start. Sure enough, but then It was Rigby's fault there were not more. The races ought to have come off on Friday, when there would have been a big field.

The worst of this is that the big New England association, "with fair round belly with good capon lined," does not get the afterwards of this, but the Rigby management, when they go looking for entries again. If Rigby is wise it will dodge the New England fair and run a fair of its own, and do not let the ideas of some of the solons from the rural districts lay down rules to ruin George Burnham's liberal ideas and fair play. better off there from every point of view no one doubts. They proved themselves wholly incapable, careless of the rights of the horsemen, and not possessed of the first rudiments of knowledge of the rues. As to the racing, it was as good as it could possibly be under the circum- stances.

SANDWICH, Aug 22--A skeleton of a human being was found buried beside the main highway between here and Barnstable, at a point where the new state highway is being constructed. by Michael Canary, one of the workmen, yesterday afternoon.

About 18 inches of earth covered the skeleton, which was quite well preserved. None of the residents of Scorton can account for the burial of any person at or near the place where the skeleton was found. To The Globe man Canary said that he examined the satill quite carefully, and that there was a crack in it about two inches in length on the right aide above the frontal bone. He could not toll whether the skull was that of a male or female. Nearly the complete skeleton was found.

and from appearances it is likely had been buried for a period of at least 15 years. I 11' 1--M Iliverside 1 Driving Park HUDSON, MASS.

Readville Circuit Meeting. Today begins the biggest race meeting ever held in this part of the country and one of the most notable ever held in any section. With infinite pains and an amount of hard work Sec Charles M.

Jewett has carried out the plans of his directorate so thoroughly that I believe this meeting will make history of a sensational character. I have been asked what is the best day to go to Reedville. Looking over the card I am at a loss for an answer. They are all such great days that to pick any one specially would be to take a chance. Every day has its race of national interest, and there are several in which the home feeling will be very manifest.

Now that Star Pointer has shown his ability to trim Joe Patchen. from the outside as well as he can from the pole I believe that there will be more interest in seeing the big horse try to beat two minutes than in a race with the black stallion. The horse has stepped a last quarter in 29 seconds and raced in 2.02 outside of a horse. Admitting that the pole mearie ometh 1 and that McCleary can take the chance of letting his horse all out in one mile. I look to see Pointer beat two minutes, under favorable conditions.

this week. It is an awful task to set even the champion of the world at. and I think I hear Dr Bailey say, "You won't bet he'll do it." but if the atmosphere and track be as good as Star Pointer the two-minute horse will be a reality this day week. To New Englanders the race in which Bumps, Guinette. Heir-at-Law, Planet and Badge will be the central figures will overshadaw any race of the week.

This is the race that may result in a hollow victory or a race that will live long after all the horses in it are gone. At first sight it would seem as if Bumps would walk away with it in straight heats. Thert comes the question. Can he go a faster race than Guinette? Good judges think it a shame that two such great horses should meet with the possibility of killing each other. and then having some horse that either can trim easily win the money away from them.

I do not know of any race this year that will require such careful judging. It will not do to let Bumps and Guinette or either one of them lay up. nor would it be fair to let the others do so. I do not envy the men who will be in the stand, but from the caliber of the usual occupants of the Reedville box I have no fear of their ability. Reedville has an excellently advertised meeting, and I cannot see how it can fail to get all the money if the weather is favorable.

Every one wish it success. Meetings to Clash. The meetings which follow that at Dover close this week, and it will be a case of the survival of the fittest. They are Old Orchard, Saugus and Narragansett. Each has a fair Rev Lawrence W.
