INSURANCE.

Fire insurance rates in Providence i'll
<oon receive attention from the New
England Insurance Exchange, and very
radical changes will be made.
The New England Exchange is the
rating organization OF stock companies
doing business in New England, and is
looked upon as the most efficient organ
ixation OF its kind in the country. Re-
Gently the Exchange assumed jurisdiction
over Providence, and one of its first acts
WAS to appoint Q committee to look into
the matter OF rates here, with view to
placing them upon basis profitable to the
Insurance companies and satisfactory to
policy holders.
The committee appointed is large and
influential one, and every member OF IL is
thoroughly familiar with the conditions
which obtain in Providence.
II IN known that several plans have been
suggested, but nothing definite has yet
been decided. Recognizing the import
snce OF the work the committee proposes
to take time in formulating plan.
The writer called yesterday upon a
member Of the Providence committee and
asked for information in regard to the
committees work and probab BILE action. He
was told in substance that:
"The results OF underwriting in Provi-
depce OF late years have not been salts

"No system OF rating has been adopted
yet but 1t 10 certain of course that IL will
be according TO some good schedule.
"This will have salutary effect OH the
building construction of the city for it
will charge for defects and make allow
anccs for Improvements"
"The man with the good building and
favorable location will get low rate,
while the poor building will have TO pay
q rate adequate to the hazard
The system which will be adopted will
be an equitable one and will appeal TO the
favorable judgment OF every thoughtful
business man. In answer to further
questions, IL was stated that rating
bureau would probably be opened in
Providence with resident manager not
an insurance man, who would have con-
troll OF all matt teTs pertaining TO insurance
rates and who would apply whatever
schedule the Exchange would conclude

lie impressed upon the writer the fact,
that as yet nothing had yet been decided
upon. that the committee were working
slowly and carefully In the matter and
that whatever system is finally adopted

An Able Physician Explains the After

The speaker was a prominent physician.
Continuing, he said:
Il mean getting over the after effects Of the
grip. ANY one who has seen as much OF il as
nave can easily understand it. The grip lasts
for long time. and seems to take special
hoid upon the system. 1t frequently runs into
pneumonia, sometimes leaves the hearing
partially impaired, the throat with an irritat-
ing soreness ana the stomach with impaired
digestion. It seems to take a long time to re-
cover the strength, the energy, or the am 81
tlon after one has had q run Of the grip, and
we frequently ind neuralgia. rheumatism
and even worse things following it.
Now, what should any sensible man or
woman do under these circumstances The
answer seems hard but is really easy. Sim
ply help Nature to get over the trouble
stimulate the body and faculties just a little.

advocates IN order to drive grip out OF the
system. 1t should be remembered however.

nothlng Tor this purpose is equal to good
whiskey II is unfortunate however, that
there IS SO little pure medicinal whiskey to

that there is but one strictly medicinal
Whlskey upon the market, and that is Duffy S
Pure Malt. It is not like ordinary whiskey,
however much druggists and grocers may say
so. II has. IN fact, properties possessed by
no other, and is beyond question a stimulant
which can safely and eftectually be taken to
prevent the grip or drive away its most dis
astrous after-efects"

cendiarism.
Chicago, March 4-One more Of the
frequent attempts to destroy worlds fair
buildings was made this afternoon, but
the attempt failed and resulted in the ar
rest of a man who gives his name as
Michael Murphy. The police believe
they have in custody one of the
gang of men which has succeeded in
doing so much damage to the exposition
buildings by the use of the torch. The
fire was discovered by guard in station
house No Z, which is unoccupied.
The building is close to the ter
minal station, and the early discovery
of the flames probably saved that struc-
ture. The fire company soon eXtinguished
the blaze the damage being nominal. The
man under arrest was seen near
the fire station shortly before the
flames were discovered. and the
Columbian guard in charge says
he believes he can produce evidence
which will show that Murphy set the
place on fire. The man had been seen
prowling around the buildings during the
last two weeks, and when arrested was

Of Hon. S. A. Jackson, the democratic

The deceased was buried with Masonic
honors. The Knights of Pythias and
Knights of Honor, of which orders Mr.
jackson was a prominent member, also
took part in the funeral services Rat
life is in the Kosciusko Jail and
no evidence of violence was mani
tested to-day. The murderer stood
at his grated cell in the
prison and coolly watched the funeral

liminary trial. The grand jury will take
up the case, return an indictment for
murder in the first degree, and the trial
will open about the middle OF the
week. AS the excitement is
running very high over the
tragedy, it is believed Ratliife's attorneys
will ask for a change venue The
