Bullion Purchases.

WASHINGTON. July l5.-It is stated at
the treasury department that the ad-
visibility of withholding from the pub
lie the statements heretofore given out
through the press of the amount of bull
Ion purchased and the prices paid for it
Is under consideration. Recently a
change has been inaugurared in the
manner of making the purchases public
by withholding this statement until the
day after each purchase is made.
Whether the contemplated refusal will
eventually occur has not been actually
decided, but an advanced price of silver
offered may have the effect of causing
its enforcement. 1t is interesting to
note that the silver bullion purchased
yesterday was bought at prices offered
by the department of persons who made
the original offers at higher prices.

CHICAGO, july -. Fifty members of
the Worlds Columbian commission be-
came boisterous, belligerent and be-
fuddled during the last hour of their
session this afternoon. That BODY
grew excited over the settlement of the
White-N ebster controversy. Messrs.
Tousley and Smalley almost approached
the stage where friendship ceases and a
resort TO fists begins. The absence Of
President Palmer. on leave until Sept.
+, had its effect almost as soon as the
commission reassembled this morning.
Had 1t not been for the temperance of
First Vice President Waller, of Con-
nectlcut, on the scene after prolonged
absence, there would have been more
disturbance. EXGov. Waller held the
turbulent spirits in check, but when
he relinquiShed the chair to Mr..
Penn there was more dis

Richard Mansfield White retains his
seat in the commission as member from
New Mexico for the present, and John

participated in by Messrs. Hundley.

sessed the power to remove independ-

who rallied around Mr.. White
declared that the governor New
Mexico was really responsible fol
making the change, and did so for per
sonal and political reasons, while the
president merely exercised his author
lty i'll perfunctory name. A roll
call was ordered, and the vote resulted

Through Childhood's Eyes.

wonder if we wouldn't like to go back
again and see how it feels to be years
old To feel the dance in our feet and the
morning in our faces; to look at the big
world again through baby eyes! Some of
Us have forgotten all about it and are gold
plated so heavily that our souls can't get
out to get q breath of air. But some of us
remember.
- We remember how we looked out of life
east windows and saw the dawn angels pull
back the curtains of pink and gold to wake
up the sun. We listened wide eyed and
wondering when the brook told US about
the water sprites that emptied their pitchers
away up on the hillside. Why, we knew
all that the birds said to each other then.
How is it we cannot understand now? We
knew just as well when Mrs. Robin went
down into the garden to do some shopping
and left her husband to keep house, because
we heard him scoiding about it all TO him
self up in the pear tree.
And there used to be fairies then. Why,
once knew where fairyland was, 1t was
in q corner of the old rail fence. An apple
tree stretched its long. knotted arms over
it; the grass stood about with it's long, deli
cate ears pricked up to listen.
There We're many little bowers in fairy
land, winding walks and groves of cedar
and evergreen twigs, bits of flower beds
and choice cluInpS of moss. In the midst
was q lovely lake, and only the cyrownup
people imagined il to be piece of looking
glass. That was because they couldn't see.
And ON moonlight nights the fairies came,
for there used to be fairies then.-Dorothy
