bronze Among the seven wonders Of

Chares. n pupil OF Lyslppus. the sculp

u. c. The popular belief Is that u
stood astriae the harbor OF Rhodes
that II was l05 feet high and that
ships could easily sail between Its legs
Pliny said that few men could CLASP
its thumb. II was cast on metal plates,
afterward joined together. and this
process occupied twelve years. In the
interior was a spiral staircase reach
Ing into its head. and In a great mirror
suspended TO It's neck were reflected

to Egypt
After Il had stood for sixty-four
years this colossus was overthrow hs

the shore for 923 years-that Is. until
A. d. GT2-when they were sold by thu
saracens to a dealer. The original
cost was 300 talents-about S0.0o0VCi

who has been permanently located
here as representative of c. d. Rou
let. was present at the meeting. and
he clearly outlined TO the aroused
property owners the circumstances
and meaning OF the new rates.
While the schedule establishes a
much higher rate on practically every
building in the business section. the
schedule at the same time provides
way for reducing these rates. one ex'
ample viii suffice. The Enterprise
has heretofore paid sl.s5 per slOo for
insurance on the building. The new
rate is Sac. Now Mr.. Roulet shows
how si.2O may be taken on this rate
BY complying with certain things for
which the Enterprise building is pen
allied. The Enterprise Is charged 81
for keeping gasoline in the building,
an improperly arranged flue costs DC,
keeping rags scattered about In the
pressroom costs Sc. broken plaster on
the ceiling costs sc. making total OF
si.2O which may be reduced or de-
Quoted from the rate II these things
are remedied. Furthermore. II the ele-
vator shaft Is closed and provided with
door. an additional 15c comes of,
and the result Is the Enterprise rate
will be s1.14. as compared with the
old rate Of si.35. Besides being an
economy. the things required to be
done by the insurance company are
in themselves desirable things 70 be
done for other than insurance rea'
sons. Every building in the city is
penalized in practically the same way,
and Mr.. Crane made II clear TO prop
erty owners that they could have their
insurance reduced by doing certain
things. many Of which involved no ex-
pense whatever. and others which cost
very little. In the end the insurance
will be less. and the city and each
property owner will profit by the re-
moval OF the fire hazard. by better san
itary conditions and general improve
ments about the buildings. In other
words. the rate is self-operative and
can be reduced or will be advanced
at any time when conditions are
changed. For instance. II property
owner will close up certain door or
run water pipe to a certain place,
he can have his rate reduced instant.
