EOsTER AND GOSCHEN.

LONDON, March 7.-Charles Foster, secre-
fary of the United States treasury, and
Right Hon. George j. Goschen, chancellor
of the exchequer, have had two interviews,
but nothing has been settled concerning
the holding of a currency conference. That
matter depends entirely upon the coming
negotiations.
In an interview with an Associated
Press representative, Mr.. Foster said that
st was impossible to disclose the nature of
his conversation with Mr. GOschon. Per-
haps they referred to a currency confer
ence, but the matter has not been dis
cussed at any length. The correspondent
having referred to the confidence felt in
America that such 3 conference will be
arranged, Mr. Foster said that he hoped
that the confidence was not misplaced,
and that il a satisfactory basis could be
obtained he would not hesitate TO confer.

The Fnhnlnna RasiIi.i.-

The basilisll was the most famous of
the many fabulous monsters of mediva-
val folklore. According to the popular
notion it was Matched by toad from an
egg laid by the cock of the common
barnyard fowl IN the ancient picture
books it was usually represented as an
eight limbed serpent or dragon, some.
times with and sometimes without
wings. Its name is derived from basil
iscos, meaning a little king, and was ap-
piled because the creature was figured
with circle of white spots on its head
which much resembled a crown. The
cockatrice, species of basilisk, besides
having a crown possessed a comb which
was an exact counterpart of the cocks.
Pliny assures as that the basilisk had
a voice which ''struck terror 10 the
hearts of men, beasts and serpents. Z"
The Bible classes it with the hon, the
serpent and the dragon as one of the most
formidable creatures. Old writers,
Phny, Bascho and others, say that its bite
was mortal in every case; that its breath
was suffocating, and that no plant would
grow in the vicinity of its lair. Its dead
body was often used, suspended in bel
fries, to prevent swallows from building
there.-St, Louis Republic.

TOPEKA, Kan. March 7.-Secretary
Mohler of the state board of agriculture

farmers of this state, urging the organiza-
ton of agricultural societies in every
county in the state. The Immediate neces-
sity for the organization of these is to
prepare for the worlds fair exhibit The
plan outlined by the board of agriculture
provides that each county fair snail offer
such premiums for agricultural displays
rs will induce the farmers to set apart a
spot of ground especially adapted for some
crop and improve it by means of feFtiliZ-
ers. The farmers will compete at the
county fairs and the best products will be
forwarded to the state fair at Topeka
from which products will be selected for
the Kansas worlds fair agricultural dis
play. In urging organization the secre-
tary says that further inducement to or
ganiZe agricultural societies is that upon
organization such societies become con
nected with the state board of agriculture,
being entitled under certain conditions to
a delegate to the annual meeting of the
board, with expenses paid. And. besides.
in case fair is held by the society, the
law authorizes the payment of 5000 from
the county treasury to assist the society in
paying premiums. Every county should
hold n fair this year and thus contribute
