DRIVES BUSINESS TO EASTERN AGENCIES On Wholesale Ifoaae Has lasoTaoee Written In !trir Tork ss Others Threaten to Fellow the game Coarse. Local fire Insurance agents, when ques tioned, assert that there Is no trust or com bination among the companlea they repre sent, but nevertheless they cannot make a rate until they have consulted H. Bennett, a gentleman who resides In Cedar Rapids, and fixes the rstes for the entire state of Iowa. Mr. Bennett, whose salary Is de frayed by the different fire Insurance com panies doing business In the state of Iowa, bears the title of "Kate adjuster of the state of Iowa." The f-ict that local agents, before dulng business have to submit their applications to Mr. Bennett, has within the last few days caused a large wholesale house to place all Its flro Insurance In New York with the result that the local agents are out their commission on policies aggregat ing iw.oco. The wholesale house applied to the local agents for a rate and Mr. Bennett ai consulted. Mr. Bennett decided that tl was the lowest rate that xthe wholesale house should be offered. This the wholesale houfe deemed too high and, with but little trouble, succeeded In securing all the in surance It wanted In New York at 75 cent. Now, when this lecame known, Mr. Bennett In haste notltled the local agents that he hod reconsidered the matter and that they oould place the risk here at 75 cents. Word from Rate Adjuster Bennett, however, came too late. The polk-les had been secured In New York and the local men are now wondering "where they are at." ' This Is but one Instance, local flro Insur ance men say, where owing to being com pelled to consult Rate Adjuster Bennett they have lost business In this city, and several of tliem feel like kicking over the traces, but are somewhat diffident In tak ing the Initiative Another large wholesale house In this cty whlch recently expended upwards of 15,000 In Installing a "sprinkling system" In its plant for fire protection, and with a view to materially lessening the cost of its Insur ance Is having considerable trouble with the local agents, owing to the fact that Rate Adjuster Bennett will not give his consent to a rate which the " wholesale house considers right. It was stated yes terday that this house would, in the event of Mr. Bennett's refusing to give his con sent to a lower figure, do as the other wholesale firm had done and place all o! its fire Insurance in the east. Local fire insurance agents are consider ably worried over the situation and yes terday afternoon it was stated that a meet ing of (he local association would be called to discuss the matter and take some uteps to keep the business at home Instead of It going east. - High School Beats Alumni. The game at Lake Manawa yesterday afternoon between the High school foot ball team and an alumni eleven resulted In the defeat of the alumni by a score of 6 to 0. The alumni hid the advantage of both weight and experience, their men averaging about ten to fifteen pounds heavier than the high school boys. The alumni kicked oft to the high achool. Cutler caught the ball and returned It twenty yards'. The high school bucked the line for several good gains. They forced the ball into the alumni's territory, where they lost it on downs. The alumni started down the field, but were soon stopped by the youngsters. Tie playing of both teams was fast. The high school got the ball on downs, advanced it on tackle plays and line bucks. They were materially assisted by a rtrap fastened on the back of Nlcoll, who would, drag Cutler and Redfern through the line for big gains. The half ended with the ball In the possession of the alumni In the center of the fleldv The second half opened up with the high school kicking off to the alumni. They ad vanced the ball a few yards and lost It on downs. The high school got the ball on the twenty-yard line and tried for a place kick, but failed.

J, P. Hess, J. J. Stewart, H. W. Rothert, What Sulphur Doos For the Human Body In Health and Disease. The mention of sulphur will recall to many of us the early days when our mothers and grandmothers gave us our daily dose of sulphur and mulasses every spring and fall. It was tha universal spring and fall "blood purlner," touio ana cure-all, and, mind you, this old-fashloued remedy was not without merit Xhe idea was good, but the remedy was crude aud unpalatable, and a large quan tity had to be taken to gat any effect Nowadays we get all the beneficial af fects of sulphur In a palatable, concen trated form, so that a single grain la far more effective than a taulespoumul of the crude sulphur. In recent years research and experiment have proven that the best sulphur for medicinal use la that obtained from Calcium (Calcium Bulpulde) aud sold lu drug atoies under the uame of Stuart's Calcium Wafers. The are small, chocolate coated pellet and contain the active medicinal, principle of sulphur In a highly concentrated, ef fective form. Few people are aware of the value of thla form of sulphur in restoring and maintain ing bodily vigor and health; sulphur acts directly on the liver and excretory orgs is and purines and enriches the blood by tha prompt elimination of waste material. Our grandmothers knew this when they dosed us with sulphur and molasses every spring and fall, but the crudity and im purity of ordinary flowers of sulphur were often worse than the disease and cannot compare with the modern concentrated preparations of sulphur, of which Stuart's Calcium Wafers Is undoubtedly the best end mostly widely used. They are the natural antidote for liver and kidney troubles and cure constipation and purify the blood in a way that often surprises patient and physician alike. Dr. R. M. Wllklns. while experimenting with sulphur remedies, soon found that th sulphur from Calcium waa auperior to any other form. He says: "For liver, kidney and blood troubles, especially when result ing from constipation or malaria, I have been surprised at the results obtained from Stuart's Calcium Wafers. In pa tients suffering from boils and pimples and even deep-seated carbuncles, I have re repeatedly seen them dry up and disappear In four or five days, leaving the skin clear end smooth. Although Stuart's Calcium Wafters Is a proprietary article and sold by druggists, and for that reason tabooed by many phyalclana, yet I know of nothing so safe and reliable for constipation, liver and kidney troubles, and especially In all forms of skin diseaae, as thla remedy." At any rate, people who ere tired of pills, cathartic and ao-called blood "purifiers" will find In Stuart's Calcium Wafers .a far safer, more palatable and effective preparation. Thomas Bowman, Emmet Tlnley and Con gressman W. I. Smith. One hundred and twenty of the children from the home will attend the services and march behind the hearse to the cemetery, whete the casket will be placed temporarily In Congressman Smith's vault. Short services will be held at the resi dence, 714 Avenue D, at 1:90 o'clock and friends desiring to view the remains can do so today at the residence between the hours of 10 a. m. and 4 p. m. The casket will also be open at the church Monday. Wealthy Farmer Insane.
