Frank II. Hazard, administrator on
the estate of the late Thomas Hedley
was enjoined by the appellate court to-
day. on the petition OF P.Francis Walk
er from selling land owned by II. IL
Ballou and wife of East Providence
under a mortgage for $l00. Mr. walker
bought a mortgage of Mr.. Hedley ana
was told by him there was no other in7
cumbrance on the property When Mr..
Hazard became administrator he
found that the mortgage Mr.. Walker
bought was on a lot owned by Mrs. Bal
lou and that there was a mortgage on
a lot owned by Mr.. Ballou. lt appeared
from the books OF Mr. Hedley that $15
had been paid by the Ballous but Mr.
Hazard could not tell whether the
money had been paid on the mortgage
on Mrs. Ballou's lot or the other one SO
he had to advertise her land for sale,
Mrs. Ballou produced receipts showing
she had paid S13l principal and interest
on her mortgage. The court said IL was

ROBBER INSURANCElIN CHINA.

one OF the nourishing businesses of
Northern china Is that of the brigand
insurance companies. These organza-
tlons, FOR a specified fee, undertake to
protect the traveller from robbers. Be
fore starting on journey ARRANGEMENTS
are made with one OF these concerns.
and they send an escort Of one or two
so-called riilcmen. Each company has
distinguishing tlag. which Is put in
some conspicuous place. either on the
cart or boat, as the case may be. Now,
in meeting a band OF brigands the con-
voy goes on ahead ana holds a parloy.
informing them that he represents such
and such an insurance company, and
ir they recognize him as a friend all
Wcll and good: IL not. the matter has
to b. fought out. which usually results
IN the rihemen running away.
Ii rs very evident to any one that
these guarantee companies are merely
agents for the brlgands, and as long as
this system is permitted TO flourish SO
long Will Northern china be a robbers
den.
Ths truth OF the matter Is that the
brlgauds I'm Manchuria are nothing
more than soldiers who were dlsbanded
after tht late Japanese war and who
carried their rifles ana amunitiQn with

They are. however, coWardly lot

ease was smallpox. The man was put
into n room until the smallpox hospital
at Fields Point could be heated.
W was evident 10 the doctors that the
man had been sick with the disease
about five days. and that he had consld-

Or. Chaplin ascertained that there has
been considerable smallpox at Norfolk,
Va. In his work on boats from that
place the patient may have contracted
the disease ltoln sailor who had II IN
a mild form. Or. Chaplin thinks Santi-
ago will come out of u all right but the
doctor Is anxious that the outdoor pa
tients who sat with the victim this
morning take extra precautions IN re-

of smallpox. The name Of the patient
is Eugcnio Santiago, who up TO this
morning resided at n boarding house at

the opinion OF DIR. Chaplin, superinten-

the hospital who went there this morn
ing had better get yaccinated as quick
ly as possible.
Santiago went 10 the hospital early
this morning and asked TO be treated
for am eruption of the face. He, as rs
the custom. was given a number and
took seat with the other patients.
The number of patients increased. San
tiago did not understand when his
number was called and he sat with the
other patients until nearly noon.
DIR. Swarts was attending to patients
suffering from skin diseases and as
soon as he saw Santiago he diagnosed
his case as smallpox. DR.. Swarts AT
once telephoned to DIR. Chaplin, who got
TO the hospital as quickly as possible,
