"sMore money!" is the cry Senator Harris, of Tennessee, has introduced a bill to repeal all laws against the cireula- ton of state banks. At present the tax of ten per cent. on rates for circulation paid out by any bank other than those au- thorized by the laws of the United States prevents the issuing of the old time money which had different value in every State. At almost every session of congress some body moves to repeal the tax. The motion is warmly supported by some bankers who want the people to believe that the cur "equal to the wants of trade" unless they, the bankers, are licensed to print it and loan it over their counters at good rate of interest. These people exert an infu- whom the fiat greenback agitators cannot reach. Some of them are bankers of con- siderable reputation who may not be actu- ated by sordid motives, but who have suc- ceeded in making themselves believe, or who have been brought up in the belief, that there is an element of elasticity in bank issues, and that this supposed ele ment is necessary to a perfect system of currency. Hence there is a certain re- spectability about the agitation for the re- peal of the 10 per cent tax.
 But respectable or not respectable, the agitation for repeal of the tax ought not to succeed. It probably will not. The currency we now have is as good in one part of the country as another. It should not be changed for currency which would rot be very good in any part of the coun- try and would vary in value in every part.

:. THE ROOM OF VELAsCo.

This is great country for booms. Not long ago all the Northwest was booming. Seattle, Tacoma and other equally thriv- ing places were in everybody's mouth. Now all is flat in the Northwest, and Seattle and Tacoma and the others are doing the best they can under adverse circumstances. But we can't do without boom. The boom centre has shifted to the Southwest. Velasco, Texas, is it's headquarters. And it is said that the certainty that Texas has at last on her coast a permanent deep water harbor is becoming known in all the cities and towns, not only of Texas, but of all other States, which have been looking 1ongingly for years for an outlet for their products by way of our southern seaboard. At Velasco ships are unloading their cargoes at the wharves; people are focking in from all directions; buildings are going up in all quarters of the town railroad construction is being pushed for ward, and all the indications of bustling, busy, booming city are multiplying on all sides. The future commercial importance of Velasco is confidently predicted by every cool-headed man of business who has visited the Magic City within the past two months. Its prosperity has gone beyond the point where even egregious blunders cannot retard it's growth. It will not be long before every through line of railroad in the State will be extended in order to get share of the volume of traf- fc that will pour in and out of Velasco. Lines of ocean steamers will soon be ready to take advantage of the rich harvest of business its harbor facilities will enable ii to handle.
 And so forth and SO on. All aboard fol Velasco! Perhaps the boom will hold un. til few more can get there and buy out
 side lots at outside prices.

Changing Customs Among the Jews.


 From Hsrper's Weekly.l
 The new currents of the time that have developed New York of the past into the present metropolis have had their natural effect on the social and religious customs of the Jews. A certain picturssqueness, which gave A peculiar halo and beauty to old-time Jewish life, has vanished in the stir and hustle of this elevated age. The historic festivals used to possess G special atmosphere, and their charming and poetic associations aided powerfully in maintain ing family life and developing an asthetic as well as religious influence. Sabbath eve in truly pious Jewish household was a poem in itself, family reunion, reli- gious thanksgiving, a pesn of joy, in which old and young alike participated. Its scenes have inspired many Jewish poet, and furnished Heiue with the sub | feet of one of his most characteristic pc ems. The Jewish wedding of @ few de- cades ago possessed all of its quaint Ori- ] eutal features The special festivals, like | Passover, Pentecost and Tabernscles, were | fragrant with their traditional ceremonies, while Purim rejoiced the Jewish heart with it's merriment and good cheer, and the Feast of Dedication. in honor of the vic tories of the Maecabees, occurring neal Christmas, was crowned with games and gifts. In those decades, too, the Jew were few in number, and lived within eas, distance of each other, 50 that the com munity was like large family.

For Remembrance.

It would be sweet to think when we are old Of all the pleasant days that came to pass; That here we took the berries from the grass, There charmed the bees with pans, and smoke
 unrolled,
 And spread the melon nets when nights were
 cold,
 Or pulled the bloodroot in the underbrush, And marked the ringing of the tawny thrush, While all the west was broken, burning gold. And so bind with rhymes these memories, AS girls press pansies in the poets leaves And find them afterward with sweet surprise; Or treasure petals mingled with perfume, Losing them in the days when April grieyes; subtle summer in the rainy room.

Nebraska,s Adventure With Wolves

Kate M. Putney in the St. Nicholas
 Once Nebraska had been to visit at their neighbours, and started for homo when it was nearly dark; but as it was 6 moon light night she did not feel lonely and had just thought, "What a lovely evening for ridel" when she heard pattering steps. Looking around, she saw two wolves stealthily following. She urged her pony to it's greatest speed, and tried to think out what she should do, for she was by this time only half way home, and seven miles from the nearest house.
 She kept perfectly still because she knew that if she screamed before she was at tackled, although it would scare the ani- mals away for a time, they would return, and would soon get used to the noise and not be frightened by it. She felt certain | so few of them would not dare attack her, for wolves are very cowardly, but she al- so knew that they would summon the rest of the pack almost instantly.
 l The wolves were now in full pursuit, and she, glancing back, saw there were three. She was alarmed indeed now, and as they were gaining on her every minute, she knew something must be done if she was to reach home alive. She knew the wolves would not long hesitate to attack l her, for there was quite large pack of
 them gathering. Her pony, too. sniffeG danger, and the next instant, before she | comprehended what he was going to do,
 he had turned and sprung right into the | midst of the snarling pack, paving and
 kicking right and leftl
 He had not forgotten his wild habits
 nor how many times he had saved himself
 from the ferocious animals. And now hit
 bravery stood his mistress in good stead for as his feet came down on the wolves
 fierce yelps showed that he was not deal
 ing gentle taps. In few seconds ther,
 were four stretched dead on the ground
 and the others had fled.
 The young rider had thought, as soon a
 she knew what he was going to do, tha
 she was safe if she could keep on his back
 and this required all her strength ant
 skill. When the pack were all gone sh
 looked down at the dead bodies and shud dered as she thought of her narrow ei cape. With no injuries, and only fe' anxious minutes, she had secured fou } dead wolves, worth more than fifty do ? lars. -
