Insurance War Settled.

Fire insurance companies have re-
sumed business in Kentucky, after hav-
ing suspended business since the pas
sage of the Glenn Green insurance law
by the last Legislature. Richmond
agents have been notified to that effect.
A conference was held in Louisville last
week and concessions were made both
by the State officials and by the repre-
sentatives of the companies. In order
to make the Glenn Greene bill inopera-
tive, suit was brought before Judge
Stout, who declared the law unconsti-
tutional
The agreement has been ratified by
the companies and signed by Gov. Nc
Creary. This ends, for a time, at least,
a most ve4ing problem for many bust
ness men and it is hoped that by the
time The next Legislature meets bill
will be drawn that will be satisfactory
both to the State officials and insurance
companies.
The Glenn bill is to be suspended
pending the test of its legality in the
courts.
The Governor is to appoint commits
sion of three to study the fire insurance
situation and recommend new law to
the next Legislature.
There is to be an immediate reduc-
ton of 10 per cent in rates on residence
property in the cities, a 10 per cent. re-

Important Decision.

The Supreme Court of the United
States reversed the conviction of the In
ternational Harvester Company of viola
ton the antitrust laws of Kentucky with
fines OF $1,000 each in five cases. Suits
were brougt in five Kentucky counties
against the Harvester Company. Viola
ton of the States anti pooling statutes
were alleged and that prices for agricul-
tural implements we're raised through
pools with the Deering and Milwaukee
corporations was charged. The court
pointed out that the penalties were in
conflict with another State law which
permitted tobacco growers pools to en-
nance prices. Justice Holmes stated
that the law Of Kentucky allowed the
enhancement of prices by combination
up to the ..real value" of the articles in
question. The court set aside the PEN
alties on the ground that the exemption
Of tobacco pools from the operation Of
the trust laws made penalties on manu-
facturers for enhancing prices invalid.

kiiIina cookina odors.

No odor of cooking should greet the guest in a private home or even an apartment which claims to be of the exclusive class. A simple ands agree able deodorizer may be made of a handful of cloves, allowed to scorch with bits of orange peel on a tin plate in the oven, says the Kansas City Star. This mixture imparts fra grance not unlike that of carnations, and, scattered about the rooms, it will completely destroy the odor of cook Ing vegetables or roasting meats. In the country the wise housewife may gather sweet clover, and the sprigs, dried out, will impaFt fresh and de- dcious fragrance to the house linens all next winter. Lavender, that stand by of oldtime housekeepers, may be purchased in little bags at trifing cost and makes delightful fragrance for the linen closet.-Exchange

SUFFRAGISTS DO NOT
 RESPECT SUNDAY AT
 NATIONAL CONVENTION
(From Mrs. w. B. Williams,
 Anti-Suffragist.)

During the recent suffrage conYen- ton at Nashville, the residents were shocked at the lack of respect for Sunday obserYances shown by the suffrag gtsts. yhe newspaper men pres ent said it was the first time they had seen a purely political meeting on Sunday afternoon, and the local min isters protested against the suffragtsts dissertation of Sunday. In this con- nection it Is worthy of note that in Chicago also. Sunday political meet ings came into existence along with woman suffrage. The Nashville So- ciaIists bore eloquent witness of their devotion to the suffrage cause during the convention. They were out in full force bearing haners on which was inscribed: Every Socialist is Suf- fragist'' and Two million Socialists will vote for Suffrage in 1e16." Tn Califc crnia a woman Socialist has been elected to the legislature since the bal lot was granted to women. There is no better way of helptng the Socialists tear down the Stars and Stripes and substitute for 1t their red revolution ary flag, than to support the suffrage cause

constantinopIe-

Constantinopie was known as Lygos until 65s B. C., when it blossorned forth into Byzantium and bore that name for close on 800 years. Byzantium, like Rome, was built on seven hi1h, and this resemblance, led Septimus Seve- rus to rechristen it Nova Roma. On making the city the capital of the Ro- man empire Constantine the Great be slowed his own name upon it, and ever since it has been known as Con in the western world. This name, however, is ign. red by orientals, who have called it Istampnl and Stam- bonl since its capture by the Turks in 1453

 The colonel explained in a postscript:
 'NThe case of this girl is that she wants a pension because her father was soldier and died in military prison. I have come upon only two obstacles to her wish:
 First, that she is not the mans daughter.
 Second, that he is still alive"

The Post of Danger.


 The Sieur de JoinvilIe in his meB1oirs Of St. Louis tells us that a certain man, sore besef by the pressure of temptation, sought counsel from the bishop of Paris, whose Christian name was William And this wise William of Paris said to him:
 sNThe castle Of Afontl,hery stands in the safe heart Of France, and no, invad- ing hosts assan it. But the castle Of La Rochelle in Potion stands on the line of battle. Day and night it must be guarded from assault, and it has suffered grieFously. Which, gentle man. think you, the king holds high in faKoT, the governor Of MontF hery or the governor of La Rockefeller The post of danger is the post of glory, and he who is sorely wounded in the conn bat is honored by God and man.
