Joe" Jones, one Of Sans numerous
brothers, has enlisted in the ministry.
His first sermon was preached in coun-
try church at Pine Log before large
congregation of farmers, backwoodsmen
and crackers. Sans methods were fol-
lowed with considerable success, but
when Joe branched off on his own hook
he struck snag. He caused his hearers
to vince when, shaping the Bible nearly
off the pulpit, he exclaimed:
"a man what will cuss a oathfi
steal!"
There was lively shifting among the
pews and much cautious looking around
and head shaking. Joe saw, and deter
mined to push his point.
Brethren and sisters" he repeated,
II want to say to you that man what
will cuss oathll steall What have
you got to say to that"
An aged cracker arose at the back OF
the church and, fastening his glittering
gray eye on Joe, drawled through his
nose:

A meeting of the trustees of the pro-
posed Presbyterian University was
held last evening at the office of &. X.
Larrabee. Rev. Walter Laidfaw, who
has been chosen for the presidency of
the proposed institution, was present
and informed the board that the en-
dowment must be largely increased be-
fore the cooperation of the board of
aid of his denomination can be secured.
1t was decided to make another can
vass of Bellingham bay for subscrip-
tions to the fund in the
hope of securing the location OF
this great educational institution. The
endowment fund already subscribed by
Mr.. Larrabee, the land company, Judge
Kellogg aud others is princely, but the
establishment of such an institution as
is proposed cannot be undertaken with
out vast endowment. Rev. Laidlaw
states that they will have nothing to
do with the institution unless it is the
best, and that means that a much
larger subscription than has yet been
secured will be required. Our people
do not seem to realize the magnitude of
the enterprise undertaken by the pro-
motors of the university project, mol
the advantages to be derived from its
location here. We shall have here, il
We have ANYTHING at all an institution
among the universities of the West
second only to the great Leland
Stanford, Jr., University of Cal
ifornia, an institution that will attract
to Bellingham Bay the most desirable
element of the great food of immigra
ton to the Pacific that viii
flow with a steadily increasing
volume. This institution is within
our reach. Not 1.-THE o
the citizens of the Bay who are able +
contribute money or lands have don
what they could do. The large fun,
now secured has been contributed by
comparatively small number of sui
scribers. A very small portion o
the vast acreage of unoccupied land
about here would secure this univel
sity. The committee is now about t
make last effort to raise the necessar
fund. A generous response on the pan
of those who are able to aid the entel
prise will insure its success.

HOW THEY CARRY THEIR MONEY.
Reading the Character of People in the
Pocketbooks The Use.

Reading the Character of People in the
Pocketbooks The Use.
81 can tell you the business of six men
out of every ten who come in here, and
the social standing Of all of them, from
the way they carry their money" said a
Broadway ticket seller for one of the
sound steamboat lines to reporter.
"Did you ever think how much of
persons individuality is expressed in his
method of carrying his money? l see
people every day get at their change
and have made study Of it.
THAT man." said the ticket seller, as
an old gentleman who had purchased a
pasteboard good for a trip to Boston
went out, lis retired banker, Did yon
notice that he carried his money in a
long morocco pocketbook? That pocket
book is always carried in the inside
pocket of his coat, on the right side. 1t
contains a number of bright, clean bills,
all neatly smoothed and laid out at full
length and right side up. He never
folds bill, | will venture cigar.
1.-THE young broker or wholesale mer-
chant carries his money in a small case
made of seal or lizard skin. He folds
the bills twice. His roll is never large,
but he has enough on hand TO meet any
emergency.
1.-The clubmen invariably carry a roll
of clean five dollar hills in their vest
pocket, where they can be easily reached.
Some carry only gold. James Brown
Potter favors gold, and usually carries
few quarter eagles in a small silver case,
into which the coins fit without rafting,
Lispenard Stewart usually has roll of
new bills in his vest pocket.
1.-THE man who comes in and fishes
from deep trousers pocket lot of one,
two and five dollar bills that have been
twisted up like gun wadding always
set down as a sporting gent.
1.-THE farmer on an excursion to 'Bos-
ting counts up the price of a ticket in
quarters and halves from tan colored
leather pouch that is tied up with a
string run through small Sits near the
top. The seafarr1g man on his way to
his home ON the Maine coast carries the
proceeds of his last trip in calfskin
wallet 1t has been handed down from
his father, or perhaps his grandfather,
for it is black and shiny with age. 1t
has long strap passed through num-
Der of cross straps. The cross sections
| seldom have more in them than tobacco
dust or a frayed tax receipt that shows
| that he owns a house. But in the CEN
ter of the wallet is place where bills
may be laid out straight and covered
with calfskin flap from either side.
"The man who carries change in his
coat pockets has been car conductor
at some time or other The fellow who
draws ten cent pieces from every pocket
in his clothes is peanut man or vendel
of small wares.
"The women, too, have variety OF
ways to carry their money, though theil
lack of pockets limits their yagaries il
that direction. The young woman with
fluffy hair, who has the price of hel
ticket rolled tightly in her palm, has {

after it, but the place is accessible I.

1t is only now that physicians are able
to begin to sum up the real consequences
of that Russian influenza which has
ragged among us the past two winters.
These results crop out in unexpected
forms almost every day in some part of
the country, Consumption, pneumonia,
weakened eyesight and long continued
nervous prostration are some of the more
common consequences of the scoprge.
But there are others even worse. In
sanity from grip is unfortunately not
at all uncommon. A hopeless and I'M
accountable depression comes first to
the weakened and nerveless body. It
grows till the mental faculties give way.
Sometimes the sufferer becomes perma-
nenty insane. In Pennsylvania two
brothers from one family have been
taken to the asylum, both dangerously
insane from the effects Of grip. No case
of insanity from grip is sadder than that
of a gentleman in New York who wa,
suddenly attacked with grip few week.
before his wedding day. The violen
attack passed and left him a lunatic
with apparently no hope Of future re
covery. Sometimes it is not madness
but suicide that follows the steps of tn
plague. One of the suicides lately wa

For Our Agricultural interests.

One of the most important congress
sional investigations ever made in
America has been entered on by the
United States senate committee on agri-
culture and forestry. 1t will be an in
quiry into the long continued depression
of agricultural prices in this country,
Even the rise in wheat that was expected
to take place in view of the famine in
Europe did not do 30. Cotton has been
lower recently than ever before, while
the breeders of food animals have been
grievously disappointed IN the seasons
results.
What is the reasonf 1t is certain that
the retail dealers in farm food products
do not become rich any faster than they
did formerly. 1t rs also certain that
consumers in cities pay for nearly every
thing as much as they ever did. The
senate committee will examine into
every cause that has a possible bearing
IN the present depression.
They will look into grain gambling
and speculation in agricultural products
of all kinds, ascertaining if perhaps this
speculation keeps prices down. They
will study methods and prices Of trans
portation, cost of lands, machinery and
tillage and the fees of middlemen. Diver
sified farming and the improvement Of
cultivation both as to increasing crops
and diminishing their cost of production
will come under the microscope, as will
also irrigation as factor IN increasing
crops. Both during the sessions of con
gress and during the recess this senat'
agricultural committee will patiently
continue the endeavor to find out who /
is that grows richer while the farme
grows poorer.

The navigators of antiquity, to whose
imaginative ignorance the ocean seemed
peopled and beset with chimeras dire
and supernatural agencies of all sorts,
used often to sacrifice human lives to
the mysterious water gods. tbs regard
ed by tradition that Idomeneus, king of
Crete. vowed to sacrifice to Neptune the
first living thing he met after escaping
from a storm, and this happening to be
his son, he fulfilled his vow religiously.
Medea nearly became sacrifice during
the return voyage of the Argonauts.-

In Germany the exigencies of compul-
sorry military service require that man
should be registered from the day of his
birth to that of his death. The govern
ment must be able to lay hands upon
him at any time. A man can accom-
plish no civil act without producing his
papers of identity, He cannot set up in
business, nor buy land, nor obtain a
situation, nor marry, nor get out of any
scrape with the judicial authorities, nor
leave the country without satisfying
the police as to who he is, where he was
born, who were his parents, etc.-Lon-

With clear conscience and light
heart George, the republican king of
Greece, left his realm after the Greek
elections to attend the golden wedding
of his royal father and mother at Copen-
hagen. The elections demonstrated the
extraordinary hold the king has on the
affections of his people. Delyannis, the
minister whose cabinet King George had
dismissed, used every means in his pow
er to arouse the people into voting for
Delyannis partisans for parliament, but
his endeavors fell fiat, as those Of any
demagogue always do sooner or later.
The voters stood by King George with
enthusiasm and sustained the policy of
NJ. Tricoupis, the former minister, who
will now again direct affairs. As soon
as the result of the elections became
known on the London Stock exchange
the price of Greek securities advanced
nine points. Greece apparently graZed
the edge of a revolution, as the fight of
Deiyannis was against the constitutional
right of the king to use his royal pre-
rogative to dissolve cabinet that had
become obnoxious to him. M. Tricoupis
managed the finances of the Greek king
dom better than any one else has sue
ceeded in doing.
