draft. But In all cases where banks re-
Csive notes, money in some form has
always been supplied by the bank to the
borrower.
Another fact which ia Of great import
ance to know before we enter further
in discussing the question Ii this: that
while the banks held 4,723 million dol.
lars Of deposits from individuals and
from the United States, there was OF the
same date in the banks Of actual cash
but about 6S8 million dollars, or IA per
cent. Of the peoples money which had
been deposited, and this is the highest
per cent. for the last FIVE years. 40.
cording to the report, it has been 40 low
as II per cent, or say an average OF 12115
per cent. for the period of Eve years
previous. This does not include the Capi-
tsl stock Of the banks or surplus and
profits.
Now, according to these figures there
is no money In the banks TO represent
capital stock nor surplus, In our pres.
emit condition when the cry Of despair 10
heard all over this land Of plenty, be-
cause not only CommerCS but all pro.

tiOns, the question comes up, Is there no

looks as though it is far away, and may
come too late to save this republic from

But there ia another remedy, 81.

Motion to strike out on the ground
that there is no proof that her hus-
band was a member of the family of
Liliu and Kaapashili or of the family
of Pilipo and Kamse.
The Court l think she has now
qualified herself to be a witness.
Motion disallowed. Exception.
I'd. From the stenographer's
notes of evidence, counsel for de-
PENDANT selected from the testimony
of Iaes the defendant the following:
IGea. / have the land in my pos
session now and hold it under deed
from Pilipo.
Testimony as to contents of deed
objected to; objection sustained;
evidence stricken out
Cross-Exsmination.
Mr.. Kinney. Did Pilipo make a
deed to you. Objected to; objection
overruled. Exception. Qaea). Pr
lipo made deed to me of this prop
erty. This is the deed.
|. But these alleged exceptions could
not avail the defendant. As to the
first, the evidence moved to be
stricken out should have been
specially stated in detail, and a mo-
ton TO strike out evidence of a wit
ness generally must be overruled
where there was other evidence
given by that witness which was
proper. In this instance, evidence
given by witness as to pedigree OBJ
tanned from members of the family
was admissible and the mere fact
that she also heard the same matters
from her husband an improper
source of testimony he not being of
the family cannot destroy her proper
evidence. If there was any evidence
which she gave as coming from her
husband only, then that should have
been specified to the Court and rul-
ing obtained thereon. The alleged
exception was not properly taken by
appellant.
I'd. The question on cross-exam-
ination-"did Pilipo make deed to
you" is clearly proper question.
The defendant had already on direct
examination testified that II have
the land in my possession now and
hold it under a deed from Pilipo,"
and the foundation was laid by de-
fendant himself for the plaintiff to
call for the deed.

MUSEUM OF RELIGIONS.
This Is the Idea OF President Warren Of
Boston.

The proposition Of President Warren, of
the Boston university, looking toward the
establishment of a museum In which the
religions of the world may present their
various exhibits. is so wise a suggestion
that we feel sure means VIII be found to
carry II out says the Evangelist. The
greatest objection TO the late parliament
OF religions at Chicago was that II was a
parliament-a body met TO talk II was an
assembly Of trained advocates, not an eX-
position of resultant life, Years ago when
the fad of Oriental philosophy first became
Gsgressive,, Wendell Phillips curtly said
dian propagandists is india" We need a
muSeum that We may see not simply the
light OF Asia, but Asia. The Turk calling
to prayer from his lofty mnarct, or bend
ing IN apparent devotion upon his rug, is
an object Of Interest and sympathy but
the Turk, in his harem, or more at large
in Armenia Just at the present time, is not
50 pleasing subject for contemplation.
Nothing Is so needed 10 awaken missionary
enthusiasm as to know the actual condition
of the world out of Christ. Paul presents
a museum Of heathenism in the first chap
ter OF the Epistles to the Romans: ana no
one can view il without feeling as he did
that II is ,earthly, sensual, dcviish." We
have heard pulpit presentations Of the con
dtions of life In native Fiji which We're un-
consciously drawn from the philosophy
of Rousseau rather than from the accounts
of explorers, We hope that the museum of
religions Will be established.
