LARGE INCREASE IM RATES SHOWN Under Dean Schedule Insurance Rates Have Moved Up 25 Per Cent.

ONLY A FEW DECREASES. ONLY TWO BUSINESS HOUSES IN THE CITY SHOW THAT RATES WERE LOWERED FIGURES SHOWING INCREASE. By compiling figures submitted by twenty-four local business men to the insurance committee of the Commer clal club, it is shown that since the Dean schedule went into effect fire in Eurance rates in this city have made an average increase of twenty-five per cent In some cases rates on local con cerns have been increased over onehundred per cent. The request made by the insurance committee of the Commercial club that local business concerns submit to it, figures showing their old and present fire insurance rate is being responded to in a most satisfactory manner and the committee will soon have enough data on hand to enable it to obtain an intelligent view of the local fire insurance situation. This Information will also assist the committee to a great extent in its efforts to remedy the situation. The statements made to the commit tee by local business men are held confidential but the following table of figures shows the fire Insurance in creases made on twenty-four concerns : Former Rate Present Rate S2.26 . $3.05 1.85 1.39 1.73 1.77 2.80 3.45 2.10 1.47 1.60 1.97 1.34 2.10 1.43 1.62 1.25 2.83 2.10 2.23 2.50 1.72 1.80 1.40 1.42 2.13 1.96 1.99 2.88 3.82 4.47 3.45 2.17 2.06 2.94 1.88 4.08 2.87 2.19 2.00 3.65 4.00 3.30 4.99 2.22 3.79 2.44 3.47 In two instances reports showing no mcreases in rates were submitted Two business houses reported that they had, under the Dean schedule been given a reduction on their rates. SPECTRAL WARNINGS. The Bloody Mark That -Appeared on Cardan's Finger. Who shall say that spectral warnings are entirely chimerical? History has many Instances to the contrary. Thus the once well known tragedian John Palmer died on the stage at Liverpool. At the same hour and minute a shopman in London, sleeping under a counter, saw distinctly his shade glide through the shop, open the door and pop into the street This an hour or two later he mentioned very coolly, as If Mr. Palmer himself had been there. ; Cardan, the noted Italian philosopher, saw on the ring finger of bis right hand the mark of a bloody sword and heard at the same time a voice which bade him go to Milan. The redness progressively increased until midnight The mark then faded gradually and disappeared. At that midnight hour his son was beheaded at Milan. . The father of Dr. Blombey was cap lain In an army serving In America. We are told by Dr. Rudge that aiz officers 800 miles from his position "were visited after dinner by this modern Banquo, who sat down in a vacant chair. One said to him, "Blombey, are you mad?" He rose In alienee and lowly glided out at the door. He was lain on that day and hour. St Janes.' Gazette. The Wooing of tho Woodcock. The wooing of the woodcock Is one f those sights to witness which a lover of nature la all its moods will make a journey of miles. The scene is enacted at twilight and the setting is of willow or alder bushes whose branches are Just beginning to show the tender green of early spring. Suddenly from the damp ground a bird . form shoots upward like some swamp spirit until it Is outlined against the gray of the evening sky. Then it circles above the branches, and the song of the wooing begins. Hidden In the darkness of the thick lower growth, is the object to which this love song is directed. The bird above circles perhaps a score of times, then drops back to the damp thicket making a sound which can be likened only to the dropping of water into a woodland pooL Again the bird soars and circles, singing still the love song. This is repeated time after time until the last gleam of light has faded and night's darkness comes down. Tho Emotions of Birds - flving out their lives birds know anger, greed. Jealousy, fear and love, and they have their play times. In my field experience I once snapped a chicken hawk with a perfect expression of anger on bis face because a movement of mine disturbed him at a feast set to lure him within range of my camera. No miser ever presented a more perfect picture of greed than I frequently caught on the face of a young black vulture to which it was my daily custom to carry food. Every day In field work one can see a male bird attack another male who comes fooling around his nest and mate and make the feathers fly. "What I Have Done With Birds, by Gens Stratton-Porter.

FOUNDER OF CUSTOM Mrs. Millikan Revives Interest In School Correspondence. SCHEME IS A NOVEL ONE. Greensfork. Ind.. June 20. Interest in an old custom that has prevailed in the local Bchools was revived by the visit of Mrs. Susan Teas Millikan of Marion to Greensfork this week. She is a former teacher In the local schools.. Mrs. Millikan originated the pupils' correspondence bureau of the Clay township schools. Pupils opened correspondence with school children in many states and in a few instances the correspondence was carried to for eign countries and continents. Some of the correspondence has continued thirteen years. By the scheme local pupils were able to correspond with those in lands far removed. It was customary for the writers to tell about the schools they attend and ask for information concerning other schools. In some instances plans for improvement along certain lines were suggested and adopted. The receipt of foreign letters always was an event of interest local ly.

MUST LOOK YOUNG.

Tills Aecomati For Dye Lockf That X araea Sometimes Show. . Tes, she's a good nurse, doctor," aid the patient rather reluctantly. You don't mean that," was the answer of the physician. "What's the matter with her? Come, tell me." "Nothing," began the faint contradiction. "She's quiet, tidy and sympathetic, but, doctor, her hair's dyed. I could see it plainly yesterday when she lat between me and the window." The doctor did not speak for a moment. He did not even look surprised. "Such a nice nurse, too," went on the patient. "Why should she do such a foolish thing?" It was then that she learned from the floctor that dyed hair is not nearly 60 uncommon in the case of trained nurses as might be supposed. Sick people like to have young nurses about them. Even physicians have a weakness for the young nurses. They believe that their interest and enthusiasm are greater. "The nurses term of usefulness is short enough as it is," this physician said, "for the work is so exhaustive that they must soon succumb. Some of them are compelled to give up after ten years. Few are ever able to keep up until they have put in twenty years. "If they feel that gray hairs, coming perhaps a little earlier than they are due, are going to make the term of their best days even briefer they are driven to hiding those traces of time and overwork by the use of hair dye, and the number that do make use of it Is very much larger than anybody supposes." New York Sun. MAHOGANY. The "War Tate Ilaaattfiil Wood Waa Brona-bt Into Faahion. Every one knows how effective and handsome mahogany is when used for good furniture, but few of us know how its value was first discovered. In the latter part of the seventeenth century a London physician naa a brother engaged in trade with the West Indies who on one occasion brought home several logs of mahogany as ballast. The doctor was building a house, and bis brother suggested tnat the logs would serve for celling beams. Acting on the proposal, the doctor gave orders to the workmen to make use of the mahogany, but their tools were not equal to the task of cutting the hard wood, and the logs were put out of the way in a corner in the garden. Some time afterward the head carpenter tried to make a box from the wood, but was unsuccessful with ordinary tools. He told the doctor, who was interested In the baffling timber and ordered heavier tools to be made to work it with, says Home Notes. When this was dons and a box at last made and polished, it was So handsome that a bureau t was made from another of the despised logs, and this was declared by experts to be so superior to other furniture making woods that the craze for mahogany set in, and furniture made from it became highly popular, the then Duchess of Buckingham fostering the craze in the fashionable world. A Seas Serpent Identified. Some forty years ago, when out with a boating party for seagull shooting, I espied a monster fish basking on the surface of the water, with its head well up in the air. The creature allowed us to get within thirty yards, when I sent two charges of shot into its head, with the result that it rolled over on its back, and our boat soon came up to it It proved to be a large angel shark. I thought I would make quite sure It was dead and sent two more charges into its upturned belly. I must have, unfortunately, burst its air bladder, for it began slowly to&lnk. Had I not killed it at first, and had it reared its head and flapped its wings, we should probably have added one more story to the long list of sea serpent fabrications. Manchester Courier. A Narrow Sqaealc. Tour front door is unlocked, sir!" shouted the policeman when he found that Mr. Careless Householder had gone to bed without attending to his locks. "It's all right," replied the burglar from the bedroom window a minute later; "my son will lock it when he comes home. Here's a shilling for you." "An easily earned bob," chuckled the policeman as he walked away. "A narrow squeak," said the burglar, with a sheet round his shoulders. "Very," replied his accomplice, whose hands were tightly clasped over poor Mr. Careless Householder's mouth. London Express. Skirt and Shirt. "Skirt" is etymologically the same word as "shirt." though it has come over another linguistic route and properly means a short garment. In fact, "skirt," "shirt," "short," "shear," "kirtle" and "curt" are in all probability near relations. But "skirt" has got itself specialized to a lower garment, with special reference to the lower edge thereof, the boundary where the garment is cut short, whence the verb 'to skirt." Corrected.

"THE PERSECUTED JEW. Q Ia, It Ia Claimed, the Moat Splrttaal Man Alive. "The Jew is said to have what Is known as the commercial instinct," said Oscar S. Straus. "Hume tells us that under Richard I. 500 Jews sought safety in the castle of York, where, not being strong enough for defense, they killed their wives and children, threw the bodies over the walls into the mob below and, setting fire to the castle, were themselves burned alive. The gentry owing money to the Jews hastened to the cathedral, where their bonds or promissory notes were kept, and made a bonfire before the altar. The compiler of the Annals of Waverley, in relating the event.' Hume says, 'blesses the Almighty for thus delivering over this Impious race to destruction.' History blazes with such stories of 6elf sacrifice and barbarity. The commercial instinct in this particular case appears to have been on the other side. "Instead of the Jew being a natural barterer, he Is the most spiritual man alive. He has been pounded through the ages, robbed and massacred, but he yields neither his traditions nor his ideals. Had he been materialistic he would have sold out long ago and bought peace. If he would join the

Greek church he would be safe in Russia. Rather than do that he will walk into the jaws of hell. Therefore I say that he is spiritualistic or idealistic rather than practical or material. Were L to choose a family that would live I would have it meet hardships and persecutions. Were I to choose one to die I would give it pleasure and luxury. The Jew, denied his civil rights, despoiled of his property, scourged and murdered, has only been made tougher and longer lived. His enemies have given him strength and trained him most admirably for the battle of life, no matter in what part of the world fortune may lead him." New York World. TO KEEP YOUNG. Be Active, Seek Variety and Don't Be Afraid to Lanark. Never retire from active life if you can possibly avoid it; keep "in the swim;" keep the mind active; never refer to your advancing years or say "at my age." To preserve youth you must have a variety of experience. The country .woman at forty, although breathing a purer air and living on a more health ful diet than the city woman, often looks fifty, while the latter at the same age does not look more than thlr ty. But her mind is more active than that of her country sister; that is the secret of her more youthful appearance. Nothing else ages one more rapidly than monotony a dead level existence without change of scene or experience. The mind must be kept fresh or it will age, and the body cannot be younger than the mind. Few minds are strong enough to overcome the aging influence of the monotonous life which rules in the average country home. City people have infinitely greater variety of life. They enjoy themselves a great deal more than country people. They work hard when at work, but when they are through they drop everything and have a good time. There is no doubt that the theater, in spite of its many evils, has done a great deal toward erasing the marks of age. People who laugh much retain their youth longer. Success. r K Overreached. Old Joe, a farmer, was noted for the many ways he had of skimping and saving. One day he hired a big country boy to help him with his work. The boy reported for duty at 5:30 o'clock in the morning, and Old Joe sat him down to breakfast. After the lad had finished the meal the sharp old farmer said, "What do you say if we eat dinner while we are at it?" As the boy agreed, they fell to and ate a little more. Then, seeing that the youngster could eat no more. Old Joe suggested, "Suppose we finish up and eat supper too." "All right," assented the lad, and he managed to swallow another crust of bread. "Now let's get to work," shouted the gleeful farmer, thinking of the saving in meals he had made. "No," returned the boy, "I never work after supper. A man's time is his own then." London Times. The Fora-etful Sanrian. A colored preacher took some candidates for immersion down to a river in Louisiana. Seeing some alligators in the stream, one of them objected. "Why, brother," urged the pastor, "can't you trust the Lord? He took care of Jonah, didn't he?"

A BURMESE RAT TRAP.

The Rodents Will Eagerly Enter It snd Cannot Gat Out. Rats may readily be induced to jump or drop Into any receptacle, especial! If It affords them adequate concealment, and they do this without one lingering suspicion of their Inability to reach the only existing outlet when the time for retreat approaches. Thus traps on this principle may readily be designed and are obviously preferable to our rat traps where the animals are numerous. In Burma, where the rats are a perfect pest, they use a jar trap, which is thus described by a traveler: "The common Pegu jar I used was about one and a half or two feet deep and fourteen or fifteen inches broad, and a hole was punched in the shoulder Just large enough for a rat to enter. "There was about six or seven inches of paddy (rice in husk) in the Jar. which was then buried to within about eight inches of the top. The mouth of the Jar was then closed with a board and a stone. "A quantity of old timber Joists and straw were in the outhouse and no end of rat holes everywhere around." With this contrivance he caught seventy-two rats in one night. The rats can readily enter, but they cannot climb the smooth sides of the Jar to escape. London Family Herald. A FIREPROOF TREE. The Chaparro, One of South America's Natural Curiosities. On the vast plains of Colombia and the north of South America, called savannas, which are parched with heat except during the rainy season, there is one of the greatest of natural curiosities, a tree called the chaparro, which is fireproof. It is the custom of the Colombian herdsmen to clear the ground by means of fire for the new vegetation. which springs up so luxuriantly In these regions after the rainy season. But not even the Intense heat of a prairie fire affects the chaparro tree. It survives the flames to afford a wel come shade In an otherwise treeless country. It Is a small tree, 6eldotn growing to more than twenty feet in height. with a girth of about three feet It owes its curious Immunity from fire to the nature of its hard, thick bark. The bark lies on the trunk in loose layers, which do not readily conduct heat to the more delicate parts of the structure. The natives believe that this tree grows only where gold is abundant In the soil below, and it certainly is com' mon in auriferous districts. Westmlnster Gazette. False Hair. False hair was first regularly worn in England by Queen Elizabeth, who had upward of fifty wigs of different kinds for her private use. After her death a few women adopted the French fashion of wearing wigs, but It was not until the restoration that wigs, or, more correctly speaking, perlwigs, came to be extensively worn by the sterner sex. These were intro duced In the court of Louis XIV., where a natural bead of hair was not considered sufficiently luxuriant for the artificial tastes of the times. The term "perrwlg" is a corruption of the French pernique. Wigs were originally adopted not as a remedy for bald ness, but In the Interest of personal cleanliness. The laws of ancient Egypt compelled all males to shave the head and beard. This explains why turbans were not worn by the Egyptians, the bushy artificial hair being regarded as a sufficient protection against the heat of the sun. The Romans, on the con trary, wore wigs because they were naturally bald. St Louis Republic. What Displeased Him. Two hunters were making their way across a lush meadow after a rain The ground was moist and soggy, but their feet by quick stepping could be prevented from sinking more than an kle deep. Suddenly the one in advance disappeared up to bis neck in a narrow stream that, owing to the luxuriant growth on the bank, be had observed only as he stepped Into it With diffi culty he pulled himself out and began wringing the water from his garments. "Weil, darn a country," he remarked, with feeling, "where they set their creeks up edgewise and hide 'em in the grass." Philadelphia Ledger. Dreamers. There was never so much need for real dreamers as there Is today. The business man, caring only for "his beef, his beer and his pew In eternity," will laugh scornfully and want to know how his balance sheet would appear did he give way to dreaming, forgetting that his operations originated years ago in the vaguest visions; also that happiness is not a necessary compliment of a heavy cash box.

TWO FATALLY INJURED. New York, June 20. Fifty passen gers became panic stricken when an explosion in a motor box of a trolley car, set fire to the car on the Flush ing avenue line today. In the wild scramble to escape from the flames, Minnie Harmen aged twenty-eight was fatally injured and six others were trampled on and are in a serious con dition. Doctor Mary Crawford, of the Williamsburg hospital ambulance did heroic work in rescuing victims. WEATHER'S CAPERS Guardian of Elements Visited His Wrath on People Of the County. THE STORM WAS TERRIFIC. The heavy rainstorm of yesterday af ternoon and evening did considerable damage in every section of the coun ty. The crops were badly maltreated but no permanent damage was done owing to the fact that they have not yet progressed far enough. Fruit was blown off the trees in large quantities and the roads were turned into quag mires. The Bell and Home telephone com panics report that some wires were blown down and that some phones were burned out. Prompt work, how ever, promptly restored this damage. The street car company was badly af fected. Interurban cars owing to trouble at the power house, were delayed on their schedules. Some places trolley wires were grounded and on the South Eighth street line traffic was blockaded for some time by a tree fall ing across the tracks and a car burn ing out. The storm rvas. accompanied by vio lent lightning displays, but so far as known, the lightning did no damage to property. In the afternoon there was a heavy fall of hail lasting several minutes. Rain was badly needed in this locality, but the weather man turned the faucet open too wide yes terday. A miniature cyclone that exhibited all the eccentric characteristics of real Kansas gale, whirled around the sheet-iron smoke stack at the Fulle Bros, greenhouse during the storm yesterday afternoon and ended by lift ing the stack from its foundations and smashing It upon the ground. Fortu nately none of the glass greenhouses were struck when the heavy C2-foot stack dropped. The damage is est! mated at $35. Kept Them All on Edge. - One of the favorite devices of Lord Nelson when ships were cruising in company was to signal to a given craft that Lieutenant Smith or Staff Engineer Brown or Captain of Ma rines Jones was to take charge, on the assumption that all his superior of fleers on board had been put out of action. The author of "Trafalgar Refought" says that the result was very good, for no one knew when he might be called upon to take command, and every one therefore made & point of trying to make himself fit to carry out the duty should it ever be assigned to him. Selfish Etiquette. Some rules in an old book on eti quette seem to encourage a practice commonly called "looking out for No. 1.
