Graduates who Use Ribbon,

Agrave professor concerned with read
ing the essays of a large number of grad
yates from a co-educational college
demolishes an old respectable tradition
when in q private letter he writes:
Brass clamps are a great improvement
on pink ribbon for tying up the loose
pages of wise young women's wise essays,
but the present generation of girl grad
yates would never think of using ribbon
anyhow, it commonly chooses cotton
Irvine or mucilage." Herein is shock
ingly exemplifed the influence of the
mind masculine over the character
feminine. The knot of ribbon is still
very much the rule in schools where
girls alone do congregate.-Exchange.

Frankfort's System of Banks.
OF all the schemes designed for small
savings and to encourage the poor tc lay
by small sums the penny savings stamp
system, established in 1882 at Frankfort
on-the-Main, is the most unique. Frank
fort is distinguished among European
cities by the large average wealth Of its
citizens, and by its exceptional promi-
nence in all that pertains to banking
and finance. Many great banking fami-
lies had their origin in Frankfort, from
which branches have been established
at Paris, London, Vienna and New York.
There are today not less than 200 bank
ing houses, public and private, in the
city. 1t might naturally be expected,
then, in view of these facts, that some
original features in the line of savings
banks should be found there.
The Frankfort Savings bank is a pri-
waite corporation established in 1928,
nearly seventy years ago, when Frank
fort WAS a free city and independent of
all state allegiance and control. 1t be-
gan with 294 depositors, with Sc, 1884
marks to their credit. In 1890 there
were 5G,697 depositors, with an aggre.
gate capital of So, ,697 marks, the re-
ceipts and withdrawals that year being

weekly deposit, and the Penny Savings
institution, which is adapted to the
methods of the humblest class of depos.

pennies per day or week.-New York

TIE first shipment-thirteen cars
of the Diamond c cattle last week
brought 5 cents a pound, live weight.
in Chicago, the steers averaging llG4
pounds-below the average weight of
range cattle. This gives Il net profit
of $50 a head, or Il check of $1,000 in
round numbers for one trainload of
cattle. These same cattle cost $40 Il
head, laid down at Dickinson, two
years ago, and it has not probably
cost to exceed 81 Il head per year for
their keeping. We would like to see
the country that will show better re-
turns from money invested in stock.

Saturday night. Saturday morning he
was married to a young woman of his
WI nationality at his home in the real

mony was continued through the day.
A large number of guests were pres

rlided the house.
Thirteen men were caught, including
the groom. The bride was the only

arrested. Each of the men was sent to

Where Flesh Turns to Stone.

The character of the soil in and around
Rapid City, S. D., has a peculiar and
marvellous property; a wonderful char
acteristic which completely controverts
the Biblical injunction, "Dust thou art,
and to dust thou shalt return" For the
last fifty years the "Bad Land" lying
seventy-five miles to the southeast of the
little city above mentioned, has been the
wonderland of America, it being a local
ity uneQualled in the world as a recep-
tacle for ~petrefactions of animals of
both the land and water kind. But the
wonders of tho bad Lands" are equalled,
i'll n respect at least, by the mineral
saturated soil at Rapid City.
True, petrefactions of remote geologi-
cal ages are not found in such p~rofusion
at Rapid City as they are farther south,
but, what is equally as wonderful, hui
man bodies which have reposed but a
short time in the soil of those South Da-
kotean hills are transformed into statues
of stone as hard as the hardest marble.
But few of these last resting places have
been disturbed, and those only when
friends thought it absolutely necessary;
however, in each case the same peculiar
ity was exhibited.-St. Louis Republic.

Atchison and Reading incomes, which are

1t is still easy to discern decided signs of inn

ness--Railroad News in
General.

CHICAGO, Sept. The fact that the
Burlington company is pushing the ex-
tension of its lines to Helena, Mont, is
being utilized in certain quarters to
create discord among the members of
the Western Traffic association. 1t has
been known for several months that the
extension was under way, but it does
not seem to have occurred to anybody
until the last day or two to kick up
row about it. The presidents agree
ment provides that no new roads shall
be built, and that no extensions of exist
ing roads shall be constructed, within
five years from the date the agreement
went into effect, in territory already oc-
cupied by members of the association.
The Union Pacific, the Northern Pa
cific, and the Great Northern all have
lines to Helena, and they are all MEN,
bers of the Western Traffic association.
When the Burlington extension Is
completed it will, of course, be COM
petitor of these roads for Montana bust
ness, and will have the shortest line
from Helena to Chicago. The Montana
lines seem to have been rather slow to
take alarm at the invasion of their ter
ritOry, but it is said they are fully alive
to the situation and will bring the mat
ter before the advisory board at its
October meeting in this city. The claim
will be made that the Burlington has
violated its agreement, and there is
prospect of lively row. The Burling
ton officials do not seem to fear the con-
sequences of this agitation. They say
that work had been begun OH the extern
sion before the Western Traffic assocla-
ton was organized, and that to complete
it can be no breach of the agreement.
