A DELAYED Execution.

An eighteenth century execution on
Remington common was stopped for
a time owing to strange cause. On
Aug. 10. 1853, two days before the
date Of the execution. a heavy fog
came over London, accompanied by
thunder and lightning and torrents OF
rain. These conditions lasted for near
ly forty-eight hours, and many people
believed that the last day had arrived.
When the time fixed for the execution
arrived the assembled crowd cried
shame on the sheriff for hanging a
man when the world was coming to an
end. AS he persisted in his prepare
tons they burst through the barriers
and stopped the proceedings, shout
ing that the culprit might as well wait
a few minutes, when the grand sum-
mons would come to all. The sheriff
had to obtain the assistance of force
Of soldiers before the execution could
be carried out.

LOWER INSURANCE RATES

Official announcement is made by
Thomas K. Binnie, president of the
Washington State Underwriters
association and head of the Under
writer's association of Spokane, that
reduction of thirty three and a
third per cent in fire insurance rates
on all brick office and mercantile
buildings in all parts of the state
has become effective and that the
new rate may be applied to all bust
ness written since January 16, 1911.
Buildings used for manufacturing
purposes are not included in the
foregoing.
The extention of the new rate was
discussed at length at the meeting
of the State underwriters in Feb
ruary when the question Of a graded
commission to agents also was taken
up. The prevailing rate is substan-
TALLY Is per cent to all and the new
arrangement, if adopted, will mean
the application of the Western
Union scale to all business written
by state agents. This scale is 10
Der cent on ordinary business, 20
per cent on office buildings and
mercantile establishments, and %
per cent on dwellings, thus making
the latter the most desira ole bust
ness to write.
