The a5 Per Cent. Advance in Insurance.
Rates.

Rates.
Local insurance agents have receiv-
ed instructions to advance rates on
all classes of property rs per cent,
with the exception of dwellings,,
churches and farm property. This
advance goes into effect at once, and
the same advance is made to apply to
all territory east of the Rocky Noun
tains, it being stated that this action
is the result of the large and nuner-
GUS fires which have occurred during
the past three years, rendering the
business so Improbable that not
only the good of the companies but
the safety of the public demands that
rates shall be Immediately advanced
lest the companies be forced to with
draw their indemnity, as 40 companies
have done during the past year.
The advance was ordered recently
at special meeting of the middle de-
partment of the Board of Fire Under
writers.
The meeting which determined up
on the advance was held in Philadel-
phia. A % per cent. raise in the fiat
rate was offered, but on certain spe-
cial mercantile risks and other haz-
ards the advance will amount to
about so per cent. 1872
Enormous fire losses, which have re-
Gently been shared by almost every
insurance company, are given as the
reason for the advance. The fire
February 2 in Waterbury, Conn,
caused more than 81 900, 900 damage,
and $4,000,000 was the estimated val
ue of the property destroyed at Pat
erson, N. j., week later.

why Easter Is a Movable Feast.

During all of March the sun is com
ing farther north.
About the Goth it shines directly on
the Equator and the day is just as
long as the night. The time of the
old Jewish Passover, and hence our
Easter, depends on this date. This
latter always comes on the Sunday
following the first full moon after the
sun crosses the line. This accounts
for its being SO movable feast.

IT MUST be a significant fact to the
Democrats to see the extinguishment

for. According to the Democratic
idea, liberty in this country has for
some time been a thing of the past.

A Rare Literary Treat.


On last Saturday night the county
examiner, the principal and teachers
of the Oakland public school were
royalty entertained by Mrs. K. R.
Rasche and family at their home on
Water street. Music and song, mirth
and laughter, lightened the hearts of
the teachers and lifted the cloud from
the troubled pathway over which
they daily trod, and the pleasures of
that evening have left lasting i'm
preston in the minds of those
SO fortunate as to have been present,
which times telling touch cannot
brush away. After different members
of this highly cultured family had
contributed their share toward the
evenings amusement different teach
ers arose and rendered their part and
speeches were made by Examiner
Browning and Prof. Dewitt. When
ample justice had been done to a
magnificently set table they all re-
luctantly retired to their respective
homes. Among those present were
Misses Cecilia Keinner, Rose and Alice
Maroney, Mae Hamill, Ella Martin
and Elizabeth Leary, and Profs. Ed
A. Browning, A. W. Dewitt, H. A.
Loraditch and Archie Perdue. In re-
turn for the generous hospitality they
received at their hands the teachers
will entertain the Rasche family to-
night at Hotel Loewenstein.

the charge of committing the assault
on Mrs. Gilbert Dennis, a well known
dresSmaker, at her home in this city
over ten months ago. Mrs. Dennis
died from her injuries about fortnight
ago without recovering sufficiently to
talk nationally. Julius Van Brake,
cOlored, formerly proprietor of the
Brunswick hotel, testified today before
the coroner's jury that on March Is
Cole had said something TO him to the
effect that he (Colel would be a happy
man If Mrs Dennis was dead, and
also had said once, when he looked
worried: Yes, if you had on your
mind what I have on my mind you
would look worried, too"
Van Brake said Cole made state
ments regarding the reason why he did
not care to visit the sick woman.
among other things that Mrs. Dennis
might say something which would open
the investigation.
Detective Harting, who has been
working on the case ever since the
crime was committed, testified that
Cole is the only person among those
whom he investigated who wavered IN
his statements.

ton Favors Retaining Trans
ports For Future Use.

Washington, Nov. THE annual re-
port of General Ludington, quarter
master general, is review Of the work
done by his department during the
year. The most interesting feature is
what he has to say regarding the trans
ports, in view of the desire in some
quarters to dispose of them He says
that the ships are fitted up in the best
possible shape for the transportation Of
troops and that representatives. of for
eign nations have asked for the plans
of the fittings with a view Of imDrOv-
ing their transports. The reports con-
tinues:
Nearly every ship sailing from Ma
Mia had on board about 100 sick who
were provided with every attention and
comfort in the transport hospitals that
would be found in any well regulated
hospital ashore.
"Of the many thousands of persons
who have been transported on the YES
sells of the army transport service since
its inception, not lone life has been sac
rihced by reason of any fault in the
fittings or accommodations upon the
army transports.
In view of this excellent record, and
of the experience of the department in
its futile efforts to secure suitable com
mercial ships for the trans ortatiOn OF
armies during the war with Spain, and
the further fact that when Withdrawn
from active service transports cannot
be advantageously disposed of by sale.
l am firmly convinced that, even though
circumstances should permit the with
draWal. of the transports from regular
line service to the Philippine Islands, II
would be wise policy TO retain suff1-
Gent number of transports as part of
the equipment of the army to be ecOnO-
rnically cared for and kept in such
condition as to be promptly available
for any emergency which may arise re-
curing the transportation Of troops on
