SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 19.- More
t .^u J.vO applications have been re
ceived for amusement and other con-
leasions at the Panama-Pacific Expo
sition in 1915. Oue hundred accept
ed to date involve a total expenditure
of about $7,000,000.
More than 7,000 people will be em
ployed in the concessions district. The
total amount to be invested in amuse-
ments in 1915 will probably aggre-
gate $12,000,000.
Among the most important conce»-
slons will be "The Grand Canyon of
the Colorado,” a working model of
the Panama canal; naval sub-marines

the first chapter of Genesis; "Toy

city of Nuremburg, Germany; "Fire

that in the very near future the gov
ernment will be able to provide for
an old age pension for government
employes out of the profits of the
government's new monopoly of life
insurance.
This monopoly went into effect Jan
uary 1st. Since then the government
has issued 22,119 policies for a total
insurance of nearly $1,000,000.
The law provides for the creation
of an old age pension fund out of the
profits.
