A sad instance is recorded In the
Deadwood papers Of a young lady who
has just arrived from Finland to visit a
brother, expecting to remain and keep
house for him, only to find that her
brother was dead. Andrew Ranta died
in Lead about three weeks ago, too late
to get the news to his sister before she
started for this country.

New York dispatch, A: A leading
banker gives the following as the plan
for protecting the gold reserve that is
acceptable to Secretary Carlisle:
"The real difficulty is in the drain from
the banks of their reserve reduced now
to about Sl2,00O,OO0) by their coin ship
ping customers. The effect Of the pay
ments into the treasury Is to be seen
through the contraction caused by the
payments to the government OF legal
tender currency for gold. The gold is
shipped abroad and lost to the CON-
munity, but the legal tenders are paid
into the treasury and cannot again be
put into circulation except through the
slow process of disbursements made
by it.
There will not be a loss or gain to
either side Of say 100000 per month,
based on the 100000 deficit Of last
month, whereas, by continual shipping OF
gold the treasury, r probably the banks,
may lose 100000 per week. This loss
they cannot bear, and the result win be,
il the movement takes place, that the
present reserve will disappear and be
locked up in the United States treasury,
and the banks viii be reduced to theil
old expedient Of making settlements with

WASHINGTON. May 9.-In its gossip
The Post has the following: Special
Agent Murphy. of the agricultural de-
partment, leaves in a few days for
Europe. He will be accompanied by
State Senator Mettus of Nebraska. For
sometime past Mr.. Murphy has been
engaged in an endeavor TO introduce
Indian corn or maize to the people OF
Europe as q food. He has cooked cakes
for them. initiated them into the mys-
teries of dodgers and made them ac-
quainted with the delights of .4egg
bread" He has met with fair success,
but working unaided could not accom-
plish all that is hoped. A bureau will be
established in London by which the
merits of corn will be exploited every

people across the water are shown the

growths Of the Western hemisphere
they will buy them. Plenty of corn ID

CHICAGO. May Q. 1906.
Il was o wild day In the wheat pit The In.
teresting transactions were the purchase of
large quantities of short wheat by Pardridge,
the sale Of 100000 by Boleson, which was
presumably for Armour. After the liquida-
ton had ceased the market broke sharply.
The price was at one time 2 cents above Satur-
days close. bat half Of this was finally lost.
Cash wheat was In good demand. but holders
advanced the price so sharply that no export
sales could be made. Corn was lower. Offer
ings of liberal quantities of Nebraska corn ID
arrive 20 to 30 days, along with better weather,
caused sales by holders and indisposition on
the part of buyers. Oats followed corn. Pro.
visions again advanced SHARPLY. but the trade
was light. There was little stuff for sale and
the shorts were disposed to pay almost any
price to close the trades.

PROMPT ACTION A DUTY.

The Tariff bill is to be reported to the
House on Tuesday next by the Ways
and Means Committee. and 1t Is rumored
that the Democrats will demand n eau
Gus pon II. There Is also n report that
the Committee IL divided on the uues-
bers being still In favor OF taxing in
comes as well as corporations and in
heritances.
There is said to be a great pressure
on the Committee to grant interviews
and hearings to persons whose interests
are supposed to be injuriously affected by
the new duties. This would he n waste
of time. Tariff reform must set aside
all individual considerations for the pub.
lie good. and the applicants for a hear.
ing by the Committee should be told
that private interests must give way to
public interests.
The Republican minority asks for time
to prepare It's report. Blu while all rea
sonable concessions should be made &c
the opponents OF tariff reform, no fac.
tional delay hou be permitted. TIT
country is pretty well unanimous In tho
judgment that uncertainty is injurious
Accordingly the sooner the wishes Of tn,
people, as expressed at the ballot-box
are carried out the better. The tariff
qestion should be settled finally with "a,
little delay as possible.

Many persons, says DIR. w. T. Cathell,

sick. keep below par in strength and

that fasting during the long intervals
between supper n breakfast, and
especially the complete emptiness Of the
stomach during sleep, adds greatly to
the amount Of cancellation. sleeplessness
and general weakness we SO often meet,
All beings except man are governed
by natural instinct. and every being
with a stomach, except man, eats before
sleep. n even the human infant, guided
by the same instinct. sucks frequently
day and night, and IL tie stomach is
empty for any prolonged period, It cries
long and loud.
Digestion requires no interval of rest,
and II the amount of food during the
tw~enty-tour hours is, In quantity and
quality, not beyond the physiological
limit, 1t makes no hurtful difference to

1t Is offensive to puolic cleanliness and

There are other smoke %nuisances in
the city, notably that maintained by the
New York Central and Hudson River
Railroad Company. They ought all to
be stopped. The Board OF Health has
condemned them as a nuisance, and
hence 1t Is In the power of the authorl-
ties to compel their discontinuance. The

be OF some benefit or advantage. but
they do hot stop the evil and are ut

A tooth Wedding Anniversary.

One wonders what precious thing
would be selected to give its name to a
wedding anniversary recently celebrated
in Hungary-the one hundredth anniver-
sary of the marriage of Jean Szathmary
and his wife. This appears to be a cir
cumstance which is entirely impossible.
But the marriage of this aged pair is
duly and officially recorded as having
taken place in May, 1898, at which time,
according to the record. they were of
marriageable age. AS in Hungary at
that time a bridegroom must have
reached the age of twenty and a bride
that Of fifteen, the pair must now be at
least one hundred n twenty n one
hundred and fifteen years old. The one
hundredth anniversary was celebrated at
the town of Zsombolyi, in the Banat,
which has for a long time allowed the
venerable couple a pension in recogni'
ton of their great 6 and fidelity tc
each other.
