LITERARY NOTES.

Nothing could be more timely and
nothing could be more well informed
than the companion articles in the Re.
view of Reviews for March upon Amer.
lea in Hawaii, and England in Egypt.
The discussion of American influence
in Hawaii and the strategic value to
the United States of the Sandwich Is.
lands is from the pen of Serene
Bishop, than whom no man in Homo
lulu is better qualified to discuss the
subject. The Review of Reviews, by
the way, comes out in this mum Der tax
ing very strong editorial grounds in
favor Of the complete annexation of
Hawaii. The article on England in
Egypt is from the pen of Mr.. Stead,
and is based on a brilliant new book
by Mr.. Alfred Miner, who tells the
story of the English occupation of
Egypt and the achievements of the
English administration there during
the past ten years.
Scribner's Magazine for March con.
tains several remarkable articles in the
line of personal "reminiscences and
memoirs" which were announced to be
one of the features of the year.
Through the courtesy of granddaugh-
ter of the great naturalist, j. j. Audu-
bon, the publishers are able to present
in this number "Audubon's Story of
his Youth, a charming bit of autobi.
ography written by the naturalist for
his children, and accidentally found
in an ldcalf skin bound volume where
it had been hidden for many years.
This narrative has never been even
privately printed, and is the fascinating
story of the romantic youth and love-
story of the great man whose personal
ity was always most interesting. The
illustrations are from rare old por-
traits in the possession of the family
one of them being a reproduction of
George. Washington, presented to Au-
dubon by the General before going
into winter quarters at Valley Forge.
Another striking article of personal
reminiscence appears in the Historic
Moments series, and is a description
of THE Death of John Quincy Adams
in the Capitol, by the Hon. Robert c.
Winthrop of Massachusetts, who was
Speaker of the House of Representa-
tives forty five years ago when Adams
rose to speak and fell back unconscious.
This venerable orator and statesman
recalls the scene in this article as
though it had occurred yesterday, and
puts on permanent record an authen-
tic description of that dramatic event,
of whNh he is one of the very few sur
viving}ye witnesses. 1t is wonder
full fact that the public lives of Mr..
Adams and Mr.. Winthrop embrace the
whole history of the United States
from its foundation to the present day.

with the company's New York office,
and Miss Wetzler, sitting in New York
at her piano before receiver attached
to an immense funnel, began to play
classical compositions. She played for
some time and then asked Mr.. Thomas

the performance and would write to
her about it. .,
After Mr.. Thomas had gone group
of people assembled around table on
which lay about fifty receivers, and
listened to animpromptu concert given
in New York. A we'll known vocalist
sang comic Irish ballad and banjo

cornet player blew back some national
airs in response. AS heard at this end
of the wire, the tones of both instru-
ments and voices were remarkably dis
tinct even the finer shadings of the
piano being easily distinguished. The
experiment of testing musicians abil-
ity by telephone, a thousand miles dis.
tant is, to say the least, unique.

PRESIDENTIAL COURTESIES.
Better Feeling that Has Ruled in Later
Years.

In what are now too often called the
good old days of the fathers of the Re-
public, John Adams exhibited the Of
ficial dignity and decency of the times
by commissioning a lot of midnight
judges on the 3rd of March, 1901, and
fleeing from the Executive Mansion in
the early morning hours of the 4th. to
avoid the necessity of extending any
official or personal courtesies to Jeffer-
son who had defeated Adams in 1900.

spun, mounted his horse, rode without
pomp or ceremony to the Capitol, hitch.
ed his horse to convenient post, de-
livered his inaugural address and rode
back to the empty home of the Presi-
dents with only vacancy and silence to
welcome him.
When John Quincy Adams was sue
ceeded by Jackson on the 4th of March
1929, there was mutual i'll temper on
both sides to jar the inaugural ceremo-
nies. The Younger Adams managed to
exhibit little frigid politeness, but
there was an entire absence of personal
or official courtesies. In 1859, when
Grant succeeded johnson, we had the
last exhibition of churlishness. Grant
and johnson hated each other with all
the intensity of their natures, and both
were conspicuous as good haters. 1t
was known that johnson would not
ride with or receive Grant, and it was
known also that Grant would not ride
with or receive johnson. There was
no Misunderstanding, no love lost, no
disappointment. johnson fired off a
farewell address through the public
press, advising the nation to repudiate
! its war debt, and hustled off in an early
train for his Tennessee home, while
Grant rode alone to the Capitol and
returned to be received by the servants
at the White House.
The era of broad guage American
courtesy on inauguration day began
with President Arthur. He made Mr..
Cleveland the guest of honor at White
House dinner the day before Inaugural
tion, and he accompanied the Presi-
dent elect to the Capitol, sitting on the
right on the way to the Inauguration
and on the left on the return. In 1889
Cleveland extended the same courte-
sizes to Harrison, who was entertained
at the White House by the defeated
President, and next week Harrison will
extend the same generous courtesies to
the coming President who defeated
him at the late election. Harrison will
leave Washington on the afternoon of
Inauguration day, but not until he
shall have extended to his successor
every possible courtesy, and proved to
the Nation his just appreciation of the
dignity of the Office and the sovereign
ty of the American people.-Philadel-
phia Times.

Speaker Davis Disbarred.

Judge Estes handed down a decision
disbarring Speaker Davis, of the Ten
nessee Legislature, from practicing as
an attorney in the courts of Tennessee.
Four weeks ago the story was printed
which caused the action of the court.
Nathan Simon was bondsman in the
sum of $4,000 for Jacob Lachman,
charged with arson. Lachman fled
and Simon secured the services of Da-
Wis to get the bond reduced. 1t is al.
legged that Davis paid $1,000 into the
court but told Simon he had paid S2;.
25O and collected from him $2,750.
When Simon learned the truth he made
a motion to disbar Davis and it was
sustained. Davis in the meantime had
procured an indictment for the editors
of the paper which printed the story
Tor criminal libel and sued for $4,000,
damages. 1t is probable that he will
be deposed as Speaker of the Legisla
ture and expelled from the Assembly

A man who was preparing a series
of recipes for a cookery book engaged
the services of a celebrated chef as a
critic and to revise his work.
One day he submitted to the chief a
recipe for lemon pie which ended with
the direction, Then sit on the stove
and stir constantly"
The chef twirled his thumbs and
said, 1T strikes me that's rather use-
less direction, for If you sit on the
stove you're bound to stir constantly. "

that ever makes part of any organ of
the body must reach its place therein
through the blood. Therefore, if the
blood is purified and kept in good con-

Council Bluffs bids fair to rival Omaha as
a cycling town now There are nearly as
many wheelmen and wheel women in the
Bluf city as in the metropolis.

Borglum of the Tourist Wheelmen were
among the Omaha cyclists who took in the
road race at Lincoln on Decoration day.
The Omaha Wheel club pedaled down to
Glenwood last Sunday, big crowd turning
out. The club spent the day in the pleas
antly situated little burg, returning in the
evening.
Club runs have lost none Of their old-time
attractiveness for the Omaha cyclists, to
Judge from the number who turn out on club
tours. May they never cease to be feature
of club life.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, June 3.-Herman Schaffner
Co, private bankers, have made an assign
ment. The firm is the largest private con-
cern in Chicago or the northwest dealing ex-
cusively in commercial paper. The firm is
also about the oldest Of its kind in Chicago
No statement. of the banks failure was
filed with the application for a receiver.
The assignment was made to the American
Trust and Savings bank. The cashier of
that institution, on visiting the suspended
institutions quarters this morning, found a
large, demonstrative crowd around the
closed doors. To add to tho excitement it
was rumored that Schaffner had committed
suicide.
Investigation developed the fact that the
assignment was the direct result of the dis
appearance of Herman Schaffner. the junior
member of the firm. 1t is said the bank has
been In straits for some days and that its
difficulties have preyed very heavily on
Schafners mind. He left the bank yester-
day afternoon and has not been seen since,
though dilgent search has been made for
him. His friends say mental alteration Is
not known In his family and they fear his
distress has unbalanced his mind and that
some mishap has befallen him. The police
have been notified TO keep sharp lookout
for him.
His partner, A G. Becker, is so overcome
by the train of ills that he has taken sick
and is now confined TO his bed.
A representative of the assignee says the
cause of the failure was too much COM
merclal paper In this line the firm was the
largest in the country, handling S35, ,000, 900
worth last year. There has been little mar
ket for it since tight money came 1t will
take some time to make up statement of
assets and liabilities.
Caught by Recent Failures.
1t is said the firm was caught by several
recent failures for sums ranging from $780,
00O down. 1t is further said the bank, when
in need of money, pledged commercial notes
as collateral for advances from other
banks. There is also theory
that Schafner was caught in the
recent great slump in values on the local
stock exchanges The attorney for the bank
has made a statement in which he says it is
expected the suspension will be only tempo
rary, and it was made only because of Schaff
ners disappearance, which was likely to
| cause distrust. The firm dealt in mortgages,
| which it sold on their merits without en-
dorsement, and Is therefore not liable on it.
