RICK ON INSURANCE RATES
Of Man in Cedar Eapidi Fixei Tbem for
tha Entire 8 tats.
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. The bull was then kicked

olT from the twenty-llve-yard line and by
straight line plunges and an end run by
Norgard they forced the ball over the line
for a touchdown, Nlcoll carrying the ball.
He failed to kick goal. The alumni kicked
off to Nlcoll, who advanced It about fifteen
yards. The high school started a punting
game and all through the remainder of the
half they punted continually. The rest of
the game was played In a hard manner, the
ball changing hands a good deal, tn the
first half Dtmmock was laid out and was
Substituted by Meneray. The playing of
Wheeler and Cutler was a feature of the
alumni, they making the most of the gains.

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.
Fred IVitsch, a well known and wealthy
farmer of Lewis township, was committed
. yesterday afternoon to St. Bernard's hos
pital by tie commissioners on Insanity.
Deitsch, who Is (II years of age and hns
a wife and three children, has been acting
queerly for some time p.xst and recently
his condit'on became such that his family
I nnd friends decided some steps toward re
straining him should be t.iken. Deitsch,
the evidence nt the hearing showed, was
laboring under an Idea that he was being
persecuted and that some one was anxious
to kill him and the members of his family.
Cnaght Stealing Wheat.
R. C. Vrooman, a young mnn about 20
years of age, was arrested last night,
charged with breaking Into freight cars In

the wheat cars have occurred recently and
the officers were watching last night and
