 in Effect. Today.

F A general advance of: ten per. cent. on all fire insurance policies covering Danielson property, real estate and personaL becomes effective this morn- ing.
 This advance, the first in number of years on such classes of insurance, is not due to inadequate fire protection nor to serious losses, for there has not been a serious loss in Danielson in- years, but to the facts, that the. in surance companies are facing de- cidedly increased cost of doing busi- 9ress. to war taxes on such corpora- tions and to other important reasons.

Return From Florida Trip.

Mr.. and Mrs. F. r. Benedict arrived
home Sunday morning from their four
weeks stay in Florida and Cuba. The
trip south was made in company with
Mr.. and Mrs. E. Z; Benedict. and that
to Cuba with Mr. ami Mrs. Merritt
Greene, Jr., as members of the party.
On the journey from Key West a bad
storm was encountered, with waves
rolling very high at times, and the
decks swept time and again. All Of the
members of the local party were vio-
lently i'll. with the exception Of +. r.
Benedict, who managed to save himself
by lying fiat on his back in his state
room. Mr.. Greene lost during the con-
fusion a fine pair of field glasses Dor
rowed from DR.. r. F. French, OF this
city, which added to Mr.. Greene's dis
comfiture on the trip. The party spent
five days in Havana.
Mr.. and Mrs. Benedict returned home
sooner than they had expected owing
to the crowded condition of the Florida
resorts. At st. Petersburg alone there
were $4,000 tourists, and no places ioT
many of them to stay. Ordinary hotels
were charging from So to $40 per day.
and the best hotels from SIS to $50, and
all are booked three and four weeks in
advance. Many tourists are leaving as
soon as they arrive for lack of accom-
modations.
Mr.. and Mrs Greene expect to be
home about March /, and Mr.. and Mrs.
E. e. Benedict in about month.
