4 Happy Impulse !

While sitting In the cars recently,
one of New York's wealthiest steam .
boat owners read the advertisement
Of the Louisiana state lottery company.
He felt an irresistible impulse to buy
a ticket. 1t was on the morning OF
the June drawing, and he telegraphed
for a ticket. The lists had not closed
at No. 319 Broadway, New York city,
and he received from NJ. A. Dauphin
a ticket-the last one sold there
when to bis surprise, in a few hours
a%fterward, he received a notice inform
ing him that he had drawn $4,000. us
there such a thing as luck?'. Any
information about the next drawing
on the second Tuesday of the month
will bs given on application to M. A.
Dauphin, New Orleans, La, or same
person at No. 3l9 Broadway, New
York city.

Venus and Cold Waves.

Venus as a goddess, in the olden
days, and as a planet in these later
times, is believed to have exerted and
to be exerting considerable influence
upon human affairs. The object Of a
paper read in England about two
weeks ago, by Mr.. B. G. Jenkins be-
fore the Dulwich college geographical
club, was to show another wonderful
effect wrought by her upon the sister
planet, the earth. About every eight
years-=for example in 1929, 1887, 1915.
1855, 1860, 1871 AID la79-oold waves
have moved through the atmosphere
when least expected, and Mr.. jenkins
tried 10 demonstrate that Venus had
produced them. Owing 10 these waves,
be says, the ZEN ReTGtlre Of the globe
for the next t Fty years VIII be below
the average.

tPlus. Minus.
These figures are sufficiently eloquent. The
increase hes been rather more fairly shared
during the quarter than during the last month,
but 1t is very large In bnth periods at all the i'm
portar cities OF the Atlantic States. As the In
crease In average prices h has been only about 20
per cent, the returns from every city except
San Francisco and Syracuse indicate an In
crease 10 the quantities of products exchanged
New York handsomely maintains the lead
among the large cities In proportion Of In
crease In exchanges, and for the month of
March L Is not surpassed In that respect by any
other city, but Chicago Kansas City and Phila-
ddelphia shows gains Of more than 50 per cent.
more than go per cent and six cities an In
crease of over 80 per cent.
The monthly statement Of the Controller OF
the Currency shows that the increase In bank
note circulation during March was only s74s. 900.
Yet there was great @ amor for more notes
during the larger part OF the month. 1t is evil
dent that the provisions Of the bank Ing act are
not auch as to. sufficiently encourage tenn
porary or local increase of circulation In an-
swer to any sudden demand and II Congress
were not particularly wrong headed on that
subject, some modification in the provisions
governing the Issue Of notes might be reason
ably and hopefully recommended. Whatever
may nave been necessary during the war, and
Ia the early days of the national banking sys-
tenn. there does not now seem to be any good
reason for requiring an increase of capital
stock, with all Its liability to irrational local
taxation, as a condition of an increase of cir
culation. Why should not all national banks be
permitted to issue Just IA many notes as they
please to protect by a deposit II the required
amount OF United States bonds2

els each. To show the magnitude Of this single
river facility for transportation OF bulk grain
to the seapoard In comparison to the number
OF railroad cars and trains which would be re-
quired for the same amount. 1t may be stated
that these 900 bushels would occupy 600 cars
and Rt the Rveraae OF 20 cars to a freight train.
would make up 30 trains with as many engines.
and nit least employing 120 men -engineers. Hre-

freight cost to New Orleans ut t24D0 contract

nearly three times ma much per bushel. The

Mississippi Valley and the st. Louis Transp por-
