SOME BIG BANK NOTES.

The largest amount of bank note in
circulation in 1927 was f100O. 1t is said
that two notes for el00, 600 each and two
for Go. COO each we're once engraved and
issued. A butcher, who had amassed
an immense fortune in the war times,
went one day with one Of these GO, O00
notes to private banker, asking for the
loan of 1000, and wishing to deposit
the big note az security in the bankers
hands, saying he had kept It fer years.
The fJ00O was at once handed over, but
the banker limited at the same time 10
the butcher the folly of boarding such
a SUN and losing the interest.
Very trne. sir" replied the butcher,
but likes the looks ont so VERY well
that have t'other one of the same kind
at home.n
An eccentric gentleman in London
framed bank postbill for t30, COO, and
exhibited it for i've years in one Of his
sitting rooms. Then he died, when the
picture was at once taken down and
cashed by the heirs.
Some years ago, at nobleman's house
near Hyde Park, a dispute arose about
a certain passage In Scripture, and, a
dean who was present denying that there
was any such text at all, Bible was
called for. When it was opened a marker
was found in it, which, on examination,
proved to be q bank postbili for c4O. 600.
IL might possibly have been placed there
as q reproach to the son. who, perhaps,
did not consult the Bible so often a. his
mother could have wished.

The movement for high license, which
has suddenly become feature of the
temperance cause, began In Lincoln,
Neb., and two years ago the whole State
adopted the plan. The City Council of
Lincoln originally raised the price to
5000 a year under the impression that
no license would be called for, and OPP
ponents Of the measure believed that
surreptifious sales would go on. Thsre
were twenty sal IONS. and the proprie..
tors Of six met the heavy fee. the rest
going ont of business. At once those
six men. who had paid 30 well for thsi
priviieCes. became practically special
officers to see that m one sold vithouta
license. There WAS much resistance to
the new idea, especially In Omaha,
where the les saloons became 50 after
the right to sell was % expensive, bat
the remaining dealers paid into the city
treasury 5000, instead Of the Si6,5O
formerly received.

A CoMPARIsION.
The exhibitions at So. Paul and Mime
apolis were fairly representative Of the
business Of the two places. At St. Paul
most of the line was made up of loads of
goods from the stores. The city has
grown by the mercantile industry. At
first trading point at the head of steam
boat navigation,it has maintained throug h
every stage Of progress the position OF
chief depot for the Northwest. It's whole
sale trade rivals that of Chicago. The
business last year amounted to SOS, 100000.
Some of the buildings wherein this trade
is carried on are very large and imposing.
Minneapolis, on the other hand, as its
exhibition to-day symbolized, is the seat of
the milling and numbering interests in this
part of the country. If st. Paul has its
being on account of the terminus of
river navigation, Minneapolis has grown
and is rapidly increasing because its plant
is watered by the falls of St. Anthony, the
head of smooth water in the Mississippi
Among the possibilities recognized now
by the nillers at st. Anthony's falls, is that
the granary of the northwest may be
drained by the Northern Pacific road into
lake boats that will feed hoppers to be re-
stored to activity on the Genessee. One
cannot talk half an hour with st. Paul
and Minneapolis Een without discovering
a degree of business nervousness mixed
with the present outpour1ng of enthusiasm
over the opening Of the great northern
route. H.D.C.

The Stallion Meeting.
Turf, Field and Farm.

The great stallion meeting at Beacon
Park, Boston, under the management of
Mr.. W. P. Balch, will commence on Tues
day next, on which day the 2;20 and $50
class will be trotted, and Jay Eye See will
go against time. In the 2:20 race there
are five entries: King Wilkes, Romero,
Onawa, Young Fullerton and Kentucky
Wilkes, and they are pretty evenly match
ed. Ten are nominated for the 2:50 class,
and when the smoke of battle clears away
we may see one or two or new stars in the
trotting sky. The best ones in the 2:25
class on Wednesday are Deucaliou,
King Almont, Allegheny Boy,
Almonarch and King Wilkes.
Who can elect the winner? In the 2:40
class, on the same day, there are eight en-
tries, anu after it has been decided the
pacing quartet, Buffalo Girl, Richball,
Flora Belle and Westmont, will contend
for purse. The classes for Thursday
are three minutes and 2:3O, and on Friday
the open-to-all fellows will come to the
stand for tho word. They are Phallas,
Director, Sata Claus and Young Fullerton.
The four-year-o and under will also
claim attention. They are Bayonne
Prince, Meander, Kenmore, Orlando, Don
Carlos and Montgomery. The programme
is novel, and the meeting will be attended
by thousands from far and near.

King Almont, the fastest entire son of AL
mont except Piedmont, A. j. Feek, his
driver, tells me he is eight years old, 16M
hands high, and wears a 13-ounce shoe and
Bounce toe weight forward. He was bred
by Gen. Withers, and sold to the late @.
W. Griswold, of New York. Feek adds:
Gle was bought by his present owner,
Richard Baker, of Watkins Glen, N. T., and
was the first horse sold at the first combin-
alton sale gotten up by Kellogg, and was
never considered of much account until I
took hold of him year ago last spring. 1t
was always supposed he would stop, but his
race the other day at Providence, knocks
that idea On the head. I lost the fourth
heat, in 2:23, by hitting him hard on one
side, causing him to swerve. Don't you
know the best of US are sometimes more to
blame than the horses. Next heat he came
right back in 1928. merely touched him
up on the shoulder. His dam, Jennie, is
also dam of May Queen, record 2:20."
