A PROMPT REFUSAL.

To the Citizens of Raleigh:
When a committee consisting OF some
of the largest and strongest fire insur-
ance companies belonging to the South
eastern Tariff Association called on the
Raleigh agents of the Greensboro FIRE
Insurance Companies, and demanded
that an advance of twenty-five per cent.
be charged on rates of fire insurance or
else companies belonging to the South
eastern Tariff Association would with
draw their agencies from the Raleigh
agents of the Greensboro companies,
prompt and fiat refusal to advance the
fire insurance rates was made by the
Raleigh agents. Representing the
Greensboro Fire Insurance Companies
am still surviving and writing fire in
surance at the old rates.
Call on me at 107 Fayetteville street.

ANTlSEPTlCS.

They DO Not Destroy, IL Es Said. bat
Only Arrest Germ Life.
The Edinburgh Scotsman begs leave
to correct the erroneous belief that i'm.
plies that antiseptics can prevent de.
cay. Decay may be arrested without
killing the micrObe which would pro.
duce 1t. A few drops of a solution Of
carbolic acid added to dour paste will
keep 1t sweet for a certain time, not
because the germs In the paste are de-
stroyed. but because these germs are
hindered for the time being in their
growth and multiplication and because
the paste Is rendered temporarily an
unsuitable soil for the growth Of what.
ever microbes may fall from the air In.
70 it.
When the effect OF the acid has worn
of and disappeared. we see the paste
going to the bad as rapidly as If 1t had
not been treated antiseptically at all.
Molds will grow In it. and 1t will decay
In the fashion familiar to everybody.
1t Is in this way cold may act as an
nntiseptic when 1t Is used to preserve
meat and fish. There Is no destruction,
but only arrest OF germ life. II we wish
to kill microbes, therefore, we not only
have to use disinfectant, but we must
employ 1t in proper proportions and see
that 1t thoroughly attacks the germs
we wish to destroy. 1t Is for this rca.
son that all attempts to kill germs
which the air may contain are worse
than useless We cannot "dlsinfcct' the
iir. II we could do SO. We should re-
luire to saturate the air with our germ.
iclde to such an extent that to breathe
it would kill us.

WHAT is TEMPERAMENT
NO Wonder Thfs Chiid's Brain Is All
In q Middle.

1n q Muddl0.
The half dozen blocks about Dupont
circle include the homes OF as many
scientists of national reputation. These
gentlemen of course know each other
and meet frequently. Not long ago one
of their neighbors began to wonder
whether such intimate intercourse
among scientists was a good thing
his cogitation having had its rise In the
following incident
His little daughter has Just reached
the age when she asks 200 questions n
day. About a month ago her father
spoke of some author cs lacking the
proper temperament" for writing on
history. That word Temperament"
apparently took root In the youngsters
mind. What was temperament? She
asked that question twice an hour for
an entire week.
Finally her father gave her note to
Professor - and sent her of to find
out. That scientist answered the que
~ as follows: Temperament is an In.
dividual tendency to the rise of GER
tain mental state" Father and daugh.
ter wrestled with that little while and
then applied to a second member Of
the scientific group for help. No. 2
called temperament ian ensemble Of
physical and mental traits arising from
fundamental constitutional differences
In individuals" This put the little
girls father completely at seq. SO No.
3 was tried. His judgment was that
Temperament Is the psychic resultant
Of the whole organic life of the indi-
vidual." BY this time hope was aban-
doned. But when No. 4 volunteered to
make 1t clear the family spirits re.
vived. Temperament Is a general dis.
position OF the mind" he wrote, 1.-The
distinctions Of which depend on the
dominance Of one or the other of the
physiological systems"

But a Tucson Visitor Yes
t6rddu Owns Manu-
Millions.
How Mr.. Burrdge, OF Boston,
Accumulated His Vast
Fortune.

Tucson had visitor yesterday, who
left for Sonora this forenoon who en-
joys the distinction of having amassed
in the comparatively short period OF
ten years. a fortune variously esti-
mated at between $12 2.000. 900 and $15.-
O00. 900 He has made 1t not by the sud
den discovery Of gold at Nome or of
diamonds at Kimberly but by the legi-
innate and intelligent use OF his brain.
His name is A. c. Burrage. and his
remarkable financial feats of the past
few years have earned for him the sob
riquet of the Boston Aladdin" for in
conservative Boston he made the be-
ginning and the greater part of his
vast wealth.
A decade ago Burrage was so poor
that he was cited into the poor debtors
court OF Boston to explain his Inability
to pay three small judgments which
had been secured against him by de-
fault. He did not have the money or
the property to meet them. Although
legally absolved from the judgments.
he has long since paid them in full.
with interest. and regards them now
as distance marks In his race for
power.
Burrage made his mark and the nu-
cleus OF his present fortune In the great
gas war w..-ch was waged in Boston be
tween ]. Edward Addicks, the Della
ware gas magnate on the one hand.
II. H. Rogers on the other. Burrage
was but a lawyer IN very moderate cir
cumstances at that time, but he had
brains enough to discover certain
charter rights of the Brookline. Mass.
Gas Company "a rival of the Bay State
Gas Company, which Addicks was then
These rights had not
hitherto been fully appreciated. Burrage
brought them to the attention of Rog-
ers, VINO promptly appreciated not on
ly his advantage over his rival, but the
ability Of Burrage. Burrage was quick
Iy enlisted In Rogers forces. and he
did yeoman's service there. For this
work he was given fee estimated 1T
about half million dollars and that
was the start in his meteoric career.
The Standard Oil Company took him
up and engaged him to further some of
their great copper deals. More mil
lions thereby came into his pos
session. Millions beget millions
and now Burrage. who is not yet
