A Curious Collection.

A well-known Leeds banker possesses
an immense number of different bank
notes issued at various times by banks
that have come to grievous smash and
which have involved thousands of per-
sons in their ruin. Not alone are bank
notes included in this curious collection
of relics of broken banks, which must
start a world of painful reflections in a

relating to celebrated undertakings
which have proved sources of immense
loss to spectators, these including

notes are concerned, it is astonishing

collection represents the names o.

voted to the reproduction, in condensed
form, of carefully selected magazine
articles and of editorial comment from
the representative daily and weekly
press of all political parties, and from
all parts of the country. The readers
Of Public Opinion get all sides of every
question. 1t is just the paper that the
farmer and villager need for genera
reading. It keeps its readers fully
abreast of the times and supplies them
with the best thought of the day in the
fields of American affairs, foreign
affairs, sociology, commerce, finance
religion, science, education, art and
new books. Public Opinion and The
TRIBUNE supplement each other adj
mirably. Together they give the. farm
er or villager and his family more of

t1on yesterday. This is exactly the
sort OF pronunciamento which is needed,
because 1t names the oifenders-the two
democratic Senators from New York,
the two from New jersey, the two
ffom Maryland, the two from Alabama,
the two from Louisiana, Camden,
of West Virginia, and Brice, of
Ohio. "These are the men," SAYS
the address, who wear the mask Of
Democrats that they may the better be-
tray our cause. These are they who
have wrought this marvellous change.
