The Fire Marshal Law.

Insurance Commissioner Basford
and State Fire Marshal Craft did a
neat bit of detective work in bring
ing to justice the man who hired his
woman clerk to set fire to his place of
business at Howard which was insur-
ed for three times more than it was
worth. Fire Marshal Craft went to
work quietly and in couple Of weeks
had the facts that sent the man to
the pen-the woman confessed.
The law is good one and the swift
results in the Howard arson case will
be full warming that hereafter every
suspicious fire will be closely looked
into.
o. A. Rudolph, President Of the
State Mutual Fire Association of this
city, is the father of the fire marshal
law and urged the passage Of such a
law two years before he was made
chairman of a committee OF insurance
men to formulate and urge the passage
of the law. Mr.. Rudolph had care
fully investigated the results of the
Fire Marshal law in Indiana, and was
conv WINGED that a similar statute in
this state would do much towards
putting an end to arson.
The wisdom of his efforts have been
highly appreciated by all insurance
companies doing business in this
state and the deterrent effect of the
law will make all property more
secure in the future.
Many men, even insurance men, had
little faith in a fire marshal law at
first, but they had not looked into the
merits Of this system Of protection
so closely as Mr.. Rudolph, who finally
drafted a bill and then discussed its
merits with insurance men, after
which a committee was appointed
with Mr.. Rudolph as chairman, and
from that committee came the pre-
sent law that will save honest men
thousands Of dollars yearly.

D(Ihe Norwegian slooruJoa, 1amou!
the world over-ser having been tn,
first and only craft to have threaded
it's way through the Arctic Ocean from
the North Atlantic to Behring Sea
and down to San Francisco, is now
the property of that city. Capt.
Roald Amundsen, the noted Arctic
Navigator sailed from Christiania,
Norway, with a crew of seven men In
the year 1903, and after three years he
succeeded in reaching Nome by the
Northwest Passage. Captain Amund-
sen left the little Gjoa at San Fran
cisco in charge Of the Norwegian con-
sui, who presented the sloop to the
city to be preserved as a historic re-
lie.
The city authorities gladly accept
ed the gift of the famous old craft,
and decided to place the vessel in a
conspicuous position at the extreme
western confines of the golden Gate
Park, just bordering on the ocean
beach.
The "Gjoa" was fitted into cradle
of wood, and loose dry sand filled in
all around up to the waterline. The
work Of hauling til old sloop out OF
the sea up the beach io- height of
more than 40 feet and several hundr-
ed feet across the big boulevard to the
point where it is mounted in per-
manent position proved very heavy
and difficult task Of engineering.
Several days we're required to accom-
plish this work.
The total weight of the empty hull
of the "Gjoa" is estimated at 300 tons.
The total length over. all is Is feet;
length of waterline, IS feet; beam, l6
feet; depth OF hold, 16a feet. The
Gjoa was not primarily intended for
Arctic navigation. She was built by
Captain Sexe, an uncle of Thomas T.
Sexe of Canton, at Rosendal, Hardan-
ger and designed for coast trade. When
purchased by Capt. Amundsen, the
vessel was reinforced with stout
wooden and iron beams and sheathed
with an outer layer Of Pinch planking
and fitted with petroleum engine of
80 horsepower and twobladed pro-
peller. However, sails were depend
ed upon as main motive power.
Capt. (Amundsen lectured in Can
ton after his Arctic trip and was
guest Of the Griegs while here.
