Fire risks in city are determined
with almost mathematical accuracy,
by the means of two schedules which
are used uniformly by all companies,
said one of the insurance men who is
working up information for the may
or's insurance investig ating committee
There is the standard schedule which
is used for the classification of the
city itself, upon which the base rates
of the city are set, and the Dean
schedule upon which the additional
risks for the individual buildings in
the business section are set.
Richmond has just, been examined
by the national board of fire under
writers, and her rating should be pub
lished in a few days, but it is inter
esting to know on what basis the clas-
| sification is made.
A standard for perfectly protected
| city is first set. Next the city is
charged with certain deficiencies for
every point that the city falls short
of that ideal standard
Relative Weight
| The relative weight of the various
units is shown by the following SEIZED
; ule of deficiency points which may be
! given to a city.
| Water supply. 100; fire depart.
ment, 1900; fire alarm, $50; police, so;
building laws, 200; hazards, 800; struc.
tural conditions, 700; total 5,000 A
class one city has not over 500 points
i in deficiency, second class sol to
1000, a third class 1.001 to $500, ETC.
a tenth class city having a deficiency
of over $500 points.
In rating the water supply and the
fire department, the manner of ap
Dointment of employees. their condi
lions of employment number and ad
vancement, are all considered. as well
as the actual condition of the appara
tuS that is TO be used to fight fires
/ Thirty-two things are considered il
rating the water supply and "a items
in rating the fire department
Other Factors.
Cooperation of the police and fire
departments in connection with fires
the building codes, and the structural
conditions of the business areas beal
an important part in the making VI
of the final count. The manual notes
that non-observance of the building
] code should be equivalent to no code
as far as the rating of the city is
concerned.
/ The detail with which the protec
ton to the city is rated, is shown
from the following notes. If a fire
chief is removable from office withou
cause, 10 points are to be counted off
the perfect city having the fire chic
! appointed for an indefinite term, anc
/ removable for cause only after pub
lie hearing Officers should be ap
pointed upon examination, seniority
and record, failure to do so penalizins
the city from five to 10 points.
If good quality of gasoline is no
kept at convenient points ready TO
/ quick handling, from five to 10 point:
can be added to the total deficiencies
Even the condition of the streets are
considered in the scale. Cross walks
steep grades, cutters, railroad grade
crossings, and drawbridges may give
the city from 10 to 20 additional
points.
To Check Up Survey
! By studying local coal conditions il
the light of the schedule which is use
for the survey, the local insuranc
committee will be able to check up Oh
the survey that has just been com
pleted by the national board.

the taxation amendment question, the

the new amendment would provide a

 But there was an old unwrftIen law reasserted by Bismarck with so that no Prussian officer might marry any foreigner.
 Even this strong tradition did not deter the young duke. He was in love. and love Is the master in all lands.
 Full of anger over the situation Karl got virtual exile order. The duke went over to Geneva, Switzer- land, where on October 2s, 1913. he married Miss Leishman.
 Nancy made bride of great beauty, but the strain of the news that an imperial plot had been al- ready discovered told, and, in the mid- dIe of the ceremoney, wnen a tenn porary bench, put in the church for the accommodation of the large num- Der of visitors, came down with a crash, she tainted.

 The duke resigned from the army rather than run counter to the Bis narckian edict, and took up his resi- dence in Belgium. He gave himself to the management of his estates.
 Then came along the war.
 When the allied powers had things all their own way, and the kaiser. taking time by the foreIock, had gone. swiftly into retreat in Holland, the day of kings in Germany had. for the time being at least, vanished. The estates that had been granted to his family by the crown in the misty past were declared reverted to the German people
 Karl, the princely lover, was poor La handsome young man in quest of employment that might retrieve his fortune.
 With the family money gone, and her husband in a strange land, Nancy Leishnan was left to the mercy of the relatives of her husband, who had never approved the match. It was virtually a case of living from thei charity and the result was her re nnoval to Paris and the institution c the divorce suit
