ABSOLUTELY Pure

OF the failure The boom occurred
in 1887 and the republican bank exam
liner hac the entire period during which
he held Office, two years prior to March
'93, to discover the fact which the Mer-
curry says caused the failure, yet he fail
ed to make the discovery. There are
over 400 state banks in the state and
MIR. Briedenthal las been busy exam
lining banks whose shaky condition has
been called to his attention ever since
he entered the Office. There is moth
ing in the statement published by the
Exchange Bank to show that the bank
would not be able to meet any
demands that would he made in the
ordinary course of business, and every
well-infOrmed business man knows
there is not bank in the state that
could pay its depositOrs in full if they
should all demand their money OH the
same day.
We have no hesitation whatever in
saying, from authentic information,
that if the Exchange Bank had been
examined six months ago or two
months ago, the bank commissioner
would not have been warranted in
closing the bank. Instead of being
heavily loaded with real estate, as
stated by the Mercury, tho value Of the
real estate owned by the bank is less
than $4,000, and that includes the
equity in the building on the corner
of sixth street and Marsh avenue.
The bulk OF the assets are loans
secured by real estate and chattei
mortgages, most Of which under ordin-
airy circumstances would he cQlectabie
and which, it is believed, will be ample
to pay all creditors in full if properly
handled.
Ii this financial panic continues
much longer and the people generally
lose confidence in all banks, there will
he very few banks i'll the state that
will not be compelled to close temper
arily, no matter how much their
assets may exceed their liabilities.
Since the above was written the
daily papers have came to hand con-
tanning dispatches giving accounts OF
the failure of four large banks Ill Los
Angeles, California, yesterday. One,
the First National, having paid out
5000 900 to depositors before closing
its doors, and whose assets greatly
exceed it's liabilities. Could the bank
commissioner have prevented that
failure?
Quite 4 number of national banks
have failed since the panic commenced
and they are supposed to be examined
very frequently by government inspect
toIS.
A national bank at Arkansas City,
Kansas, failed a few days ago hav-
ing $780, 900 deposits, and yet that
bank had presumably been examined
by tile government examiners, under
tie system that is praised so highly by
the republicans.

The Differences OF Temperature Caused by
Friction of the Skin.
Light friction of part reduces sur
face temperature, says the New York
Ledger. In ten experiments on
healthy adults, whose arm-pit tenn
peratures on both sides : as equal, and
whose free temperature on the surfac e
OF both fOrearms was before massage
eighty-eight degrees Fahrenheit or
more, 1T was found. on subjecting the
left forearm to gentle upward friction,
that, whilst the temperature in both
armpits and in the untouched free sur
face of the opposite limb remained
constant, the temperature of the left
forearm fell in all cases more than
two degrees, and in three cases nearly
four degrees After firm friction.
rolling, squeezing and kneading of the
skin of the limb in all cases, the free
cutaneous temperature rose to ninety
five degrees; but the armpit tempera-
ture remained the same on both sides,
whilst in seven cases an interesting
phenomenon was noticed on the oppo-
site side-viz., the right limb sensibly
perspired and the free surface tenn
perature of the untouched forearm fell
to eighty-four degrees during the time
that the firm friction of the left limb
was in progress. In regard to light
friction, it has been impossible to de-
tect any effect on the patients sense of
locality or on the temperature sense
After firm friction of part for five
minutes comes decided increase of
the sense of touch, and the sense of To-
cality has. in most instances, been ap-
parently improved.

A ShIPWRECKED CREW.
The Terrible Night and Day Passed on
the Northern Icebergs.

| The Terrible Night and Day Passed on
the Northern Icebergs.
A sealing brig, immersed in the
densest fog and driven by the gale,
| was running down narrow lane or
breakers ahead and the crash of the
bows upon a reef came in the same
moment. The crew sprang overheard
upon the heaving ice-field, and almost
Immediately saw their strong and
beautiful vessel sink into the ocean.
The adventure is related in: "After
Iccbergs with Painter"
Without food or extra clothing the
forty men were remote from all help.
To the west lay the precipitous shores
of Cape Bonavista, and for this, the
nearest land, in single file, with Capt.
Knight at their head, the men COM
menced at sunset their dreadful and
almost hopeless march.
All night, without refreshment or
rest, they went stumbling and plung-
ing on their perilous way, now and
then sinking into the slush between
the ice.cakes, and having to be drawn
out by their companions. But for their
leader and few other bold spirits, the
party would have sunk down with fa-
tigue and despair, and perished.
At daybreak they were still on the
rolling ice-fields, beclouded with fog.
and with nothing in prospect but the
terrible cape and it's solitary chance of
deliverance. Thirsty, famished and
worn, they toiled on, more and more
slowly, all the morning, all the fore
noon, all the afternoon; and then, be-
wildered and lost in dreadful cloud
travelling along parallel with the coast,
the poor fellows passed the cape with
out knowing it.
The captain looked back from time
to time on the worn-out and suffering
line of men, the last of them scarcely
visible in the mist, and a thrill of dis
couragement passed over him. Unless
there was some change in their pros
poets, he knew that few of them would
live out another night on the ice. They
had shouted until they were hoarse,
and looked into the endless gray until
they had no heart for looking longer.
Suddenly, just before sundown, they
came to vessel. A few rods to the
right or left, and they must have
missed it. "We were led by the hand
of Providence" said Capt. Knight, in
telling the story.

Points in Palmistry.

An interesting discussion has sprung
up among the palmists in regard to the
line of the hand known as the mar
riage line. One recognized authority
says that when this line curves upward
the possessor is not likely to marry at
all. Other experts say they know
many married and happy people with
such line. It is also alleged that the
transverse line on the hill of Mer-
curry which one party says is the mar
riage line, is not SO considered by the
Chirological society. ''our opinion. :"
says the editor of the party organ. ''is
that these lines are signs of attach
ment, and there is scarcely hand ever
seen without at least one in the hand
of either married or unmarried people.
