To Share Pro Rata.

ATCHIsoN, August 24.-The Frank
lin bank of ST. Louis to-day began suit
i'm the district court of this county
praying for the appointment of a re.
ceiNer of Howell, levitt & Co.'S effects
and asking that FL. G. Solomon, the
agent here of the First National bank

ing of the property. The object of the
proceeding is to make all the property
OF the firm, including that held by the
Chicago bank, subject to the claims of
all the creditors. The petition slleges
that the First National bank of Chica-
go has possession of property belong
ing to r. Howell worth 1922, 900 and
that the claim of the bank is only a
small proportion of that sum.

PROPERTY SECURITY FOR MONEY.
The Financial Ideas of MT. westrup.


Topeka. Kas., August pa num-
Der of alliance leaders were recently
in secret meeting with Alfred P. West
rup of Chicago, editor of the Auditor
ium, the organ of the mutual bank pro-
paganda, and listened to the idea he is
advocating on financial matters. Mr..
Westrup is an avowed anarchist and
does not believe in government. Con-
sequently he does not take much inter-
est in the :sub-treasury scheme of the
peoples party. What he wants is a
mutual organization that will issue its
own money regardless OF the govern
ment and entirely independent OF it.
His plan is to make all property, whether
personal or real, basis of credit
for its owner who will put in an appear
ance at the Office OF the mutual banking
propaganda, register there his belong
ings and on the strength OF it receive b
receipt which will entitle him to.a Ger
tain amount of credit the understand
ing being that his property is ample
security for it's payment.
These receipts or certificates OF credit
are intended to circulate freely as
money. which Westrup thinks they
will do without trouble. He has been
in the city several days talking his plan
over quietly with the leaders OF the
new party and so finally arranged for
the little meeting which was held in A
M. Mackay's office. He por-
trayed to the finauciers in the new par
ty the advantage of his more advanced
ideas and urged those present to use
their influence in securing for his
scheme the Endorsement of the peoples
party in it's platform in this state
He assured them that the peo-
Piles party of Kansas had progressed
further on this line of thought than
any other in the country and he in
sisted that they were sufficiently ad-
vanced in financial education to take
the study OF his higher course
The Kansans who attended the meet
ing, while they are in favor of all the
money they can get from the sub-treas-
ury and everything else in the list OF
categories of the proposed financial leg
islation, are hardly prepared at this
time to take the power of making
money from the government provided
the government will make enough for
them. They promised Mr.. Westrup
after he had answered all the knotty
questions propounded to him they
would take the matter under advisement

In the Caucasian province OF Georgia,
where drouth has lasted long. marri-
ageable girls are yoked in couples with
an ox-yoke on their shoulders, 9 priest
holds the reins, and thus harneSseo

GIRLS strip themselves naked and, led by
an older woman, who is also naked, they
steal harrow and carry it across the
field 10 q brook, where they set it Hfoat
Next they sit on the harrow ana keep

for an hour. Then they leave the har-
row in the water and 60 home.
"A similar rain charm is resorted to
in India. naked women drag pillow
across the field by night 1t is not said
that they plunge the pillow into the
stream or sprinkle it with water. But
the charm would fardly be complete
without it. Sometimes the charm
works through an animal.
ITO procure rain the Peruvians used
to set black sheep in field, poured
chica over it, and gave it nothing to eat
till rain fell.
0In the districts of Sumatra all the
women of the village scanti!y clad, go
to the river, wade into it, and splash
each other with the water. A black
cat is thrown into the water and made
to swim about for awhile, then allowed
to escape to the bank, pursued by the
splashing of the women. In these cases
the color of the animal is part OF the
charm; being black it will darken the
sky with rain clouds. So the Bechu-
anas burn the stomach of an OK at even
ing, because, they say, the black smoke
will gather the clouds and cause rain to
come The Timorese sacrifice black
pig for rain, white or red one for
sunshine. The Garos offer black
COST on the top of very high noun

Sometimes people try to cOerce the
raingod into giving rain. In China a
huge dragon, made of paper or wood,
representing the raingod, is carried
about in procession: but II no rain fol-
lows it is cursed and torn to pieces. In
the like circumstances the FelOupes OF
Senegambia throw down their fetiches
and drag them ubout their fields until
rain falls. Some Indians of the OrinOcO
worshiped toads and kept them in ves-
sells in order to obtain from them rain
or sunshine as might be required; when
their prayers were not answered they
beat the tOads. killing frog is Eu-
