Rates Held Inadequate.

1t having become evident to the SUI
preme Lodge that the first three classes
would not succeed, according to an ex-
pert of the District Of Columbia tnsur-
ance department.. the members of those
classes were urged to join a fourth class
Members of the fourth class are now
being urged to join the fifth class, be-
cause the heads of the order believe that
members Of the fourth class have not
been paying enough money, or paying
at adequate rates to mature their Ger
titicates of insurance
In a statement made public by Harry
P. Wiley. grand chancellor of the Dis
trict of Columbia branch Of the knights
of Pythias, many technicalities and in
surance details are given to prove that
the fourth class was in better condition
in 1910 than in 1853. The figures also
show that the fourth class at the old, or
inadequate rates" was fast spending
more money than got, and that death
claims were grow, 10 be in excess of
the amounts paId \, inombers for assess
ment.
This statement shows that the insur-
ance department of the knights of Pyth-
las is guaranteed by the Grand Lodge OF
tne oruer. In effect they are Two Separate
organizations. The statement says that
any deficiency in the insurance depart
ment would have to be paid by the Grand
Lodge, or that members throughout the
country would be assessed.

Drexel Game to the Last,

Round three-The last reverberation Of
the gong had not died out before Drexel
was half way to Beresfords corner. He
rushed the Englishman, evidently hoping
to carry him off his feet by the speed
and aggressiveness of his attack. Beres-
ford met the rush with wicked jolt to
the body, which brought Drexel up short.
gasping for breath. And then the Hon.
Bobby" got to work in earnest. He
shot over left hook, which DreXel failed
to block. 1t landed square on his jaw,
and his heels flew up, while he toppled
over to the canvas floor He was up
again in a second, smiling confidently
and glancing encouragingly toward his
corner. but his smile did not conceal the
fact that he was badly distressed. Beres-
ford was waiting for him, and hardly had
Drexel arisen than a right crashed
against his jaw, and as he stood dazed
for an instant Beresford's left landed on
the other side. The last blow seemed to
paralyze DreXel. His hands dropped to
his sides and his eyes rolled up. He
stood trembling at the knees, unable to
lift hand but waiting gannely for the
next blow. Beresford stepped around him
into position and posed his right hand for
the final knockout Then he looked at
the referee. The latter glanced at Dr-xels
corner, and the latter's seconds tossed a
sponge into the ring. then scrambled in
after 1t and helped their man out.
Every one who saw the bout agreed
that 1t had been a slashing fight and that
Drexel had succumbed only to Beresford's
superior ring generalship. The fight was
to have gone six rounds and would have
been settled on points had there been no
knockout.
The Hon. Bobby was surprised when
the details of the fight were repeated to
him, but conceded that they were cor

the offices Of E. & c. Randolph i'm Wall

signs of his combat. but when he was
asked about the bout he merely smiled
and waved his hand. remarking

Property Holdings Questioned.

Mr.. Williams points out that the order
has exceeded its corporate rights because
1t acquired more than 100000 in real
and personal property. He declares the
charter limits the Knights of Pythias to
the ownership of 100000 worth of prop
erty
Because the Knights of Pythias is a
District of Columbia organization operat-
Ing its insurance branch throughout the
United States by virtue of having re-
ceived certificates of compliance with the
law from the insurance department of
the District of Columbia, the petition for
injunction to prevent certain insurance
increases and for the appointment of a
receiver for the Grand Lodge will be of
great Importance to the insurance de-
partment of the organization throughout
the country, it Is stated.
The dissatisfaction has arisen because
of the establishment of the insurance
branch of the knights of Pythias of a
fifth class it is explained. This class is
the fifth insurance propaganda which the
department has put forth. The first, sec
ond and third classes have gone out of
existence. According to insurance experts,
each succeeding class has been estab-
l1shed for the purpose of rerating the
insurance, each class having q different
plan and rates.
