THEY FEAR BABIES.

The average young man." said a
traveller, has no great fondness for
young children. l don't know how
many times 1 have heard a mother
who was carrying little child and
who had halted in the aisle of a rail-
read car, say, referring to the vacant
seat, and addressing the young man
by the window, Is this seat taken?
And l don't know how many times I
have seen the young mans face length
en- as he answered politely, No The
mother takes the seat, and the young
man begins to grow restless. He reads
the paper still, but he keeps his eye
on the baby; and you may be sure the
baby has its eye ON him-a beaming,
good -natured eye it is, too-and the
young man finds it not the easiest
thing in the world to appear uncon-
with attention thus drawn to
him, but he makes a bluff at it, and
does pretty Well until the infant
moistens one chubby fist in his mouth
and reaches out to make a print of it
on the lapel of the young mans coat.
Then the young man rises. Madam
he says, let me give you this seat
and he steps out into the aisle And
he doesn't look for another seat in the
car; he makes a Decline for the smok-

proposition looking to the reduction

FOREVER CLOSED.
Three Milwaukee Banks That Will
Never Reopen Their Doors.

Milwaukee, Aug. 1S.-Of the five
banks in Milwaukee which have closed
their doors there seems to be no prob
ability that more than two will resume.
The banks that may resume are the
Milwaukee National and the CONNER
cial
There is no talk of the RESUMPTION of
the Wisconsin Marine and Fire Ins,lr-
ance Company bank, and it is admit
ted by gentlemen who were officers of
that Institution that there is no likeh-
hood of the banks resuming. There
IS, however, a strong probability that
in due time a new bank will be found
III operation in the old quarters of the
Marine bank. If a new bank be not
organized, the Merchants Exchange
will undoubtedly secure the Marine
Bank quarters.
While efforts are being made bv the
stockholders of the Commercial bank
to resume business, the indications are
that it will be some time before such a
step is taken. That another bank is
needed on the West Side is generally
realized, and it is probable that the
Commercial will resume or a new in
stitution be started.
The Merchants Exchange bank will
in time probably carry out its plan Of
opening a branch on the South Side
which, with the German-American
bank, would give that part of the city
ample banking facilities. There is lit
tie likelihood that any new independent
bank will be established in that part
of the city.

TWO THOUSAND ARE IDLE.
Many Indianapolis Factories Prepar-
pairing to Reduce Help.

indianapolis, Aug. 1S.-Inquiry among
the labor unions Of this city develops
the fact that about two thousand per-
sons are idle and that many of the
factories and shops are preparing to
cut down their working forces after
Sept. 1 to even greater extent than
at present. The public improvement
now under way gives employment to
a large number of men, but the con-
tractors are obliged to turn hundreds
away who want to work The daily
wages have been reduced 20 per cent
within the last month, but still a
greater number are asking work than
can be employed

Eventually Chamberlain modified his
