Fire losses in the United States and
Canada during the first six months Of
1911 were over $30,OO0,O00 more than
in the same period Of 1910 Last year
was not what is regarded as a good
year for fire insurance companies. An
increase Of $90,000,000 in losses in six
months, in view of the fact that last
year the bulk of the losses came in the
closing six months, is not regarded as
suspicious for the year as a whole.
Already this year a score of COM
panies have retired from the field by
reinsurance, merger or receivership,
and that number win be greatly in
creased before the end of the year,
unless there is marked change for
the better.
The fro losses last year were 1884,
470,650. This year they threaten to
exceed $30O,o00,Oo0. That not only
means the absolute elimination of that
much OF the national wealth, but it
also means the elimination Of num-
Der of the fire insurance companies
upon whose indemnity the credit of
the country is party based. A large
proportion Of these losses are due to
carelessness, individual and municipal
IL every property owner will resolve to
take the best possible care of his own
risk, and if the municipal authorities
will enforce the laws they now have
on construction and protection, the
best possible beginning will have been
made for the much needed reduction
of the fire waste.-Record Herald.

CHARLESTON, S. c., October 30
Joseph Pulitzer, proprietor of the New
York World and st. Louis Post-Dispatch.
died aboard his yacht, the Liberty, in
Charleston harbor at 1:4O o'clock yester-
day afternoon. The immediate cause of
Mr.. Pulitzer's death was heart disease.
Although he had been in poor health for
some time. there was no suspicion on
the part of those accompanying him that
his condition was serious.
The change for the worse came at
about 9 o'clock yesterday morning. when
he suffered an attack Of severe pain. BY
daylight he appeared to be better and
fell asleep soon after 1880. He awoke at
l O'Clock and complained of pain in his
heart. Soon he fell into faint and ex-
pired at / 40 o'clock.
Wife at His Bedside.
Mrs. Pulitzer who had been sent for.
arrived from New York yesterday, and
reached the yacht shortly before her
husband died. AT his bedside also when
the end came was his youngest son, Her
bert, who has been cruising with his
father
Mr. Pultzer's son Joseph. jr.. is now
on his way from st. Louis with his wife.
and one of his daughters will come from
Florida. Ralph Pulitzer, the eldest son,
is on the way to Charleston, and will
meet the train en- route.
Up to an hour and a half before his
death Mr.. PuitZer's mind remained per-
fectly clear. His German secretary had
been reading to him an account of the
reign of Louis XII of France. in whose
career Mr.. Pulitzer had always taken
the liveliest interest.
Last Words He Spoke.
AS the secretary neared the end of his
chapter and came to the death of the
French king, Mr.. Pulitzer said to him:
'Leise. gans leise, gans leise."
(Softly, quite softly.)
These were the last words he spoke.
Some members of Mr. Pulitzer's party
will go north today on the train with
Mrs. Pulitzer. Herbert Pulitzer and the
body of the dead journalist. The other
members of the party will remain on the
yacht, which will probably sail for New
York late today.
Mr. Pulitzer's yacht has been in
Charleston harbor for six days. She was
on the way to Jekyl Island. near Bruins

The Greater Palais Royal was formally
opened this morning
To the younger generation the changes
that have taken place in the building
mean merely that a successful depart
ment store has found it necessary to add
to its size because of business demands.
and that. of course, is true. To the
patron who can recall the original open
ing of the store the Greater Palais Royal
stands for more than Mr.. Lisner's per-
sonal success. 1t typifies the prosperous
growth of Washington itself Thirty
four years ago the city shopping section
tered along the Avenue and crowded to-
gether up 7th street. Into this section
entered young merchant of indomitable
business ambition, who was also an ideal
lst with dream. And the ambition has
made the dream come true.
The Greater Palais Royal of today rep
resents the fulfilled ambition of the mer-
chant prince, but not at the expense of
his idealism. One proof of this lies in the
fact that he built a hospital for the poor
before he laid a brick on the present i'm
prOvementS. Mr.. Lfsner keeps a personal
view on his mammoth establishment, but
his genius for training others along the
lines OF his own executive ability is so
| remarkable and his trust in his clerks
so strong that he is able every year to
spend recreation months at his summer
home in New Hampshire, to continue his
lifelong devotion to the study of music
and to perform the many duties which
rank him among the prominent philan-
thropists and citizens Of the National
Capital.

A Man of Action.

Prominent in journalism in America for
more than thirty years, Joseph Pulitzer
was looked upon as a man of action and
ideas. Born near Budapest, Hungary,
April TO- 1s47, his father was a man of
education, intelligence and fortune, and
when the son reached his sixth year his
physical condition was such as to pre-
clude the belief that he would attain his
ma jority. AS child Mr.. Pulitzer was
restless, impatient and precociously alive
to the affairs of the world. He was a
voracious reader even as child. and to
his liking for reading in his early years
Is attributed his lifelong trouble with his
eyes, which were weak at his birth.
At the age of fourteen years Mr.. Pulit-
ger was cast upon his own resources. His
father had died short time before. 1t
had been expected that his estate would
supply amply the wants of his widow and
son. but it developed that the fortune had
vanished. Forced to make a living for
himself and mother and fortified by an
excellent education The had gained at the
schools in Hungary and from private
tutors, Joseph Pulitzer went to Paris and
thence tn London.

Took Care of Mules.

His first occupation was the care OF
sixteen government mules at Jefferson
barracks. With the few dollars he thus
earned he returned to st. Louis at the
end of four weeks. Until the summer OF
1856 he worked hard without great finan-
cial reward. and meanwhile learned with
difficulty the English language. In the
winter he worked as Il stoker on board a
