Recording Color,

An ingenious instrument has been
brought into notice, called the s'tinto-
METER" by which a permanent record
of any colored substance may be Sc
cured by means of standard glasses of
various degrees of color. This instru-
ment has proved TO be of immense
value in gauging the colors of fiours,
oils and similar substances, and now its
use has been extended to chemical
work By its use the color of solution
of unknown strength can be estimated,
and the strength can at once be deter
mined by means of tables provided for
the purpose This method can also be
employed for estimating the amount of
lead in a solution, which. if free from
interfering substances, gives definite
color with sulphuretted hydrogen In
fact wherever colorimetric determine
tions are desired, the tintometer may
be looked upon as the best instrument
for obtaining accurate results--St

FIRE LOSSES IN 1898.
The National Board of Fire Underwater
in Session at New York.

The National Board of Fire Underwriters
in Session at New York.
New YORK, May 12.-The twenty
eighth annual meeting of the national
board of fire underwriters began yes
terday. d. w. Skilton, the president,
said in his address:
The year closed with record of diversity
unequaled in the history of American under
writing. Years there have been that have re-
corded greater single conf lgrltions, but for
widespread and continuous disaster the year
1898 stands clear and well outlined from all
that have gone before. The Connecticut insur-
ance commissioner sai9 that instead of any
proft In 1888 to the companies, taken alto
gcther there was loss of over ssOC0,0J1. In
1892 there was profit of ST. 900, %. The re-
suits of the two years differ b. more than s12
OI0O)o. Figures compiled from the last annual
statements OF thirty-six New York state COM
panIes, ffty-siX companies of other states and
nineteen foreign companies show reducti n
of over 5000, 90 in their aggregate net surplus
as compared with one year previous, and of
nearly ala, Coz compared with January /,
1891.
The report of the committee on in
cendiarism and arson showed that
! there had been 219 offers of rewards,
| amounting to $1,000. Eight rewards
had been paid. These amounted to 81,
225. Thirteen convictions were secured.

Circular to Kansas BANKS.

Bsnk Commissioner BreIdenthaI Issues .
Circular to Kansas Banks.
TOPEKA, Kan. May a.-Bank Com.
missioner Breidenthal sent a circular
letter yesterday to all state and private
banks In Kansas calling for state
ment of condition at the close of bust
ness May 4, 1894.
After specifying the items of inform
alton desired in these statements and
indicating the form in which they are
20 be made, the commissioner makes
the following special reference to one
OF the provisions of the Kansas law:
Il am informed that New York banks
require banks who borrow of them to
sign notes payable in gold. In this
connection I desire to call your atten-
ton to chapter 80 of the Laws of
Kansas of 1898. and request that here
after all banks under the control of
this department refrain from signing
any note or other obligation payable in
anything other than lawful money of
the United States''
The law of 1898 referred to by the
commissioner provides that All obliga-
lions of debt. judgments ca ecutions,
stated in terms of dollars aid t. be
paid in money, if not dischargeabfe in
United States legal tender notes, shall
be payable in either the standard sill
yer or gold coins authorized by the
congress of the United States, all stip-
Nations in the contract to the con-
srary notwithstanding"

WRECKED BY THE CASHIER.

The Sedalia First Nationals Collapse At
tributed to EmbezzIement.
SEDALIA, Mo, May o. -Rumors con-
eerning the bad condition of the First
national bank which closed last week
and is now in control of Bank Examin-
er Latimer and the absconding Of
J. c. Thompson, who had been cashier
since the bank opened, in 1865. were
verified this morning when United
States Attorney John R. Walker,
accompanied by Deputy United
States Marshal Harry A. Adams, ar
rived with a warrant for the arrest of
Thompson, charging him with embez-
element, abstracting funds from the
bank, false entries on the banks books
and making false report to the comp
troller of the currency.
Thompson left here Friday at noon,
saying that he was going to Washing
ton toOFpsult with the comptroller of
the currency in regard to the appoint
ment of a receiver. Since that time
nothing has been heard from him.
1t is thought Thompson's defalcation
will reach to fully 500, 900.

Well Defined.

A servant girl who was employed in
family in which there were several
children became very much alarmed
when one of them fell i'll with scarlet
fever. She was for leaving at once.
You need not be afraid, Hetty''
said her mistress. I'VE have isolated
the little boy. and you need not go
near him. Moreover, adults rarely
take the disease"
An hour or two later Hetty was over
heard saying to fellow servant:
Julia, what does isolated mean?'
81 don't exactly know" replied the
brilliant Julia, but 1 guess it means
that they have put him on ice
THAT must be it And what is an
'adult?'''
Il don't exactly know that, either;
but l guess it means girl who works
