A $4,000 Check on a Shingle.

Joseph G. Palmer, a California pio-
neer, and at one time banker and
politician, died yesterday in Onkland,
aged 63. Mr.. Palmer, in the early days
of California, was a member Of the
firm of Palmer, Cook & Co., a bank
which did an immense business, and
whose influence was felt throughout the
State. To show his readiness to adopt
original methods in an emergency, it is
related that once depositor called to
draw a large sum of money ($2S,000)
from the bank. Mr.. Palmer's consent
was necessary, but he had been called
away to attend to some duty at a lum-
Der yard some mile or more from the
bank. Thither the depositor fastened,
and made known his wants and the
necessity of having them attended to
at once. Mr.. Palmer could find neither
pen, pencil, ink nor paper; but without
a moments hesitation he picked up a
shingle, borrowed a piece of red chalk,
and with it wrote check on shingle
in large and distinct letters for $4,000.
This was good when presented for all
the money the depositor had in bank,
and it proved an exceedingly good adj
vertisement for Palmer. 1t gained con-
fidence for the original genius of our
first great banker, whom everybody ad-
mired and trusted.-Sdn Francisco

State Elections This Year.

The politicians will not be inactive
this year. Elections take place in
twenty-three States. Rhode Island
will open the contest this month with
an election for Governor, State officers
and Legislature. Oregon will follow
in June, and the Democrats are SO con-
fdent of victory, although General
Garfield carried the State, that they
called the convention in advance of
the Republican. Kentucky will elect a
Clerk of its Court of Appeals in Au-
gust, and IN the same month Tennessee
and Alabama will choose Governors and
Legislatures. Maine comes along in
September. She will elect a Governor
and Legislature, which will have the
naming of Senator to succeed Mr..
Frye, who, it will be remembered,
stepped into Blaine's vacant place in
the Senate when he became Secretary
of State. In October Ohio and Iowa
will fill some of their minor offices.
Colorado will provide herself with a
Governor and Legislature, and West
Virginia will elect an Assembly which
will choose a L. S. Senator to succeed
Mr.. Davis. In November Connecticut,
Delaware, Kansas, Massachusetts, Mich
igan, Nevada, New Hampshire, South
Carolina, Texas and New York have
Governors to elect, while Illinois will
vote on Legislative candidates, who
will have the destiny of David Davis
as a Senator in their keeping. Both
parties have plenty of work before
them, for on the issue of the State
will depend in a great mea-
sure the next great struggle for the
Presidency.

Cattle Raising, 4 National Industry.
Kansas Farmer.

The history of our stock interests in
general, just as one remembers it with
out consulting books or special author
tiles, is an interesting one. Only half
a century ago, when railroad building
was done almost wholly in the brains of
engineers and mechanics, the stsid old
farmers had their little hocks of sheep,
cattle, horses, and hogs, and kept them
on farms ranging form fifty to
two hundred acres each divided into
eight to twelve arce fields. They killed
for home use one beef and dozen two
year old hogs in the fall, and a mutton
occasionally during the summer. Ten
to forty head of cattle, those days
was a large herd for any farmer. They
fstted couple Of steers every year and
sold them to the butchers Out in the
Back Woods which meant Ohio,
traders gathered up the fat cattle into

Mark Twain's Idea OF Pretty House.
New Orleans Tmes-Democrai.

Apropos of paint and the fondness
which We have in New Orleans for
painting our houses white, it is said
that when Mark Twain was in our city
recently, he was asked how he liked the
looks Of a rather pretentious dwelling
which is white painted-the heavy
looking columns, the elaborate porch,
winding steps, balustrades, and all.
Like it, said the wicked hunorist,

Few people have any idea Of the
value of metals other than gold, silver
and copper, which are commonly sup.

They are not, however; there are many
metals more valuable and infinitely
rarer. The following table gives the
names and prices of all the known met.
