Mixed pruos and Victim Died.

Wellington, Kan.-Robert Maple,
merchant of Perth this county, was
arrested for violation of the state pure
food and drug act and upon arraign-
ment before Justice Gilmore of this
city, plead guilty and was fined $35
and costs. One week ago Maple, who
is not a registered pharmacist, but
who has been selling drugs under a
merchants permmit from the state
board which permits the sale of nom
poisonous domestic remedies, sold
farmer named Pierson two ounces OF
what was supposed to be tincture Of
jamaica ginger Pierson diluted this
with pop and he and liveryman
named Kier drank of the mixture,
Both were taken sick, Pierson dying in
few hours, while Keir's life was saw
ed by the liberal use of antidotes.
The symptoms in both cases pointed
strongly to aconite poisoning and the
coroner's investigation developed the
fact that Maple had bought some
aconite tincture in the same invoice
in which the ginger was purchased and
had probably mixed the two drugs in
putting them on his shelves. The
county attorney was at first inclined
to prosecute him for involuntary
manslaughter but as there was no evil
dence of criminal intent he was in
dicted for misdemeanor simply

CUT THE COST OF INSURANCE
KANSAS LAW SAVED CITIZENS
$685., 4sS.s1.
Superintendent Barnes Asserts That
Poor Mans Dollar Buys Equal
Amount With Rich Mans.

Topeka.-Kansas saved 40 cents for
each man, woman and child within her
borders during the past year through
the operation of the new fire insurance
law, according to the statement made
by Insurance Superintendent Charles
w. Barnes in his annual report. The
new law gives his department the
right to fix rates. The average re-
duction on residence property through
out the state was 141a per cent and
aggregated $697,4SS.S1.
Only one state in the Central West
-Missouri-has a lower average fire
insurance rate for farms than Kan
sas. The rate in Kansas is Slip; Mis-
souri,, Sill; Illinois, $1.24; Nebraska,
$1.32; Colorado, Slab; and Iowa, $1.79.
Discussing the new law which has
resulted in a REIMBURSEMENT of and de-
crease of rates, Superintendent Barnes
says:
There is one feature of this law
which is of greatest Importance; that
is, the dollar of the poor man buys
against fire that is purchased by the
millionaire or the man of wealth. This
law places insurants Of the same same
class upon exactly the same basis. 1t
places all property of the same class
upon the same basis"

PRIVATE DWELLINGS,
OR BOARDING HOUSES?
THEIR INSURANCE RATES ARE
TOO HIGH.
n They Could Be Classed as Dwelling
Houses, the Rate Would Be
Cut From $3.50 to
80 Cents.

Topeka Kan.-Eight Kansas univer-
sity fraternities and four sororitles
presented a petition signed by their
presidents, to Charles Barnes, state
superintendent of insurance, asking
that the fraternity and sorority houses
be classed as private dwellings and
not boarding houses in the matter OF
fire insurance. Grant w. Harrington
of Kansas City, a graduate member OF
the Sigma Nus, brought the petition to
Topeka. The petition reads:
"a recent insurance rating classed
the college fraternity houses in Law
renee as boarding houses and in
creases our insurance rates according
ly. We protest against this ruling and
ask you to have the injustice done us
corrected. Our houses are not board
ing houses They are our homes dur
ing the university year. Every occu-
pant is a part owner and financially
interested. They are not operated for
profit, but for the mutual benefit OF
all, and there are no transient board
ers. We feel that they should be
rated the same as other residence
properties"
The Sigma Nus have constructed a
new $4,000 home and as a private
dwelling the rate of fire insurance on
this property would be so cents per
hundred But as boarding house the
rate on the property is $3.50. The
difference in the rate is what caused
fraternity to bring the matter up and
all the other fraternities and the so
rorities joined in sending the petition
to the insurance department.
