The Bank Of Scotland.

The Bank Of Scotland, now 200 years
old, naturally sought to encourage Scot.
tish industries, and this Is shown in the
manufacture Of its paper for notes. The
first large notes were made in 1895, &c
chilling notes, a. they were termed, be.
ing only issued ON April 2, 1904. In
1929 the banks paper was manufac.
tured at 0iffordhall, near Haddmgton.
Attendants had to be present in the
banks interest. and their account wa
paid by the bank. One item was "ale
and bread furnished to the workmen,
los. +" and another for drink money to
servants, ca It's. Cd" The items are
suggestive, although 1t is possible they
only represented drink money In name.
In 1885 the bank got its 20 shilling
banknotes made ut C~ollingtoun Min
(Colinton mill), and there is an "ac'
compt for drink money in connection
with it. A barber came twice from
Edinburgh to shave the officials and re-
oeived Be. for his professional attend
ance. Green tea must have cost al

A FAMOUS
The Familiar Lines which Have Becn A.
tributed to Martin Luther.

The Familiar Lines which Have Been A.
tributed to Martin Luther.
Nearly everybody is familiar in me
language OF another with the famous
old German couplet attributed to Mar
tin Luther, and which literally and
properly translated into English is as
follows:
Who loves not wine. wife and song
Remains q fool his whole life long.
This supposed sentiment Of the great
reformer has been quoted thousands Of
times as his, and its authenticity was
not questioned. But now comes q very
competent authority-The Lutheran OBJ
server-and stoutly insists that Luther
never wrote the lines, and that, in fact,
they made their first appearance more
than 200 years after his death.
According to The Observer, in the
year 1877 q we'll known German poet,
John Henry voss, published at Ham,
burg a small volume entitled "Nusen-
almanach {" The Almanac Of the
Nuses''). At the end Of one Of tho
poems in this book he placed the coup
let IN German:
wer NIGHT liebt vein, webb und gesang
Der bieibt Elm narr sein kbenlang.
To this efrusion VOss affixed the name
Of Luther. This caused a good deal Of
comment and excitement. VOss was q
candidate for the position Of teacher in
the Hamburg gymnasium. The Luther.
al pastors Of the city protested against
his appointment because Luther was not
the author Of "the couplet' which had
been attributed to him, and because
Voss had thus made Luther encourage
intemperance. But in spite Of all that
could be done in the way Of denial and
explanation the lines literally chung to
the great name and refused to be sepa'
rated, and we venture to say that com
paratively few down to the present day
ever doubted that Luther was their real
author.
As the couplet expresses the convivia'
sentiments Of many Germans it is prob
able that It was q common piece Of un'
written German folklore even before
Luther's time. Some English writers
have made the lines into a bacchana'
rhyme. with sinister meaning, but thu
true version, coupling Irvine, wife anf

ment and custom among Germans II

The hottest experience I ever met
with in the country was the day l help
cd to make hay. The farmer began to
call us shortly after midnight, and after
. long siege Of intermittent yelling he
succeeded in his design Of getting us out
Of bed several hours before II was neces'
sary. It was then 8 q. m. About two
hours later we had had our breakfasts
and were entering the bayfield,.
When one gets into trouble, the open.
ing scenes are always alluring. A gor.
geous sunrise was In full swing in the
east. The dew lay ON the grass, and the
cir was cool and invigorating. I could
not but agree with the poets that the
scent Of the new mown hay was very
inspiring. / felt like o colt and was keen

The first heat consisted in punching
the hay after the rake, which the farmer
himself drove about the field with many
loud gees and "haws," but few
"whoas." The old rascal took u fiend.
ish delight in cIowding Us. 1t began to
look o little like work.
When the hay was all punched, the
high ladder wagons were driven into the
field. Being a novice, I was assigned the
duty Of loading. I stood upon the wagon
and built the load as the hay vas pitch.

ly. The first dose knocked all the poetry
out Of me.
The blazing sun had sucked up all the
dewdrops and was now high in the
east. He seemed to focus his scorchinp
rays on the wagons, and tho hay cracked
and sizzled about me like frying fat. II
was noon 30 times all at once ! thought
I was becoming liQuified. I sank to my
neck in the hay and roasted in a con-
centrated oven Of absorbed solar heat.
Not q breeze stirred. No friendly cloud

vainly tried to fancy I was in the Arctic
ocean and the wagon was q floating ice
berg. The old pitchers, Injured to the
heat and the %avocation, still fed on the
hay.
We were jerked into the barn-fron
the frying pan into the fire-and I wa.
there barbecued for half an hour in the
hot beds Of the NOW.
Out we shot again into the broilinl
field. All day long this process Of slow
torture continued. It was a little drama
from the snowless land inserted int
real life, the farmer impersonating sa
tan, the pitchers'his archangels and my
self Charon's lost passenger.

Los ANGELES MYSTERY,
Officials Baffled by a Case
Bearing the Aspect of
Murder.
Queer Story Told by a Woman in
Whose House John Patre
Breathed His Last.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Dec. A.-John
Patre, Frenchman, is lying on slab at
Garrett & Co.. S undertaking rooms with an
ugly cash on the back of his head on the
right side and two bruises on his forehead,
and from all that can be learned there is
every reason to believe that he was MUIR
dered. The case is one of the most mystic
rious affairs that Coroner Campbell has
been called upon to investigate this year.
DIR. Shorb was summoned to the resi-
dence of Mrs. J. F. Latenne, 2410 Maple
avenue, early this morning TO attend a
man who it was claimed was suffering
from severe pains in his abdomen. Upon
arriving at the house the doctor found the
patient in his last gasps. DR.. Shorb OBJ
served that the man who lay on the mar
row bed had two bruises on his forehead
and that blood was flowing from a wound
just back OF the right ear. He left, and as
soon as possible notified the Coroner. 1t
was between IL and II o'clock when the
Coroner arrived, and it required but q
hasty examination to show that something
was wrong.
The moment the Coroner entered the
room where the body lay, boy of about
10 years and his mother, frail little
woman, followed close on their heels. The
woman began to sob. Coroner Campbell
asked her if the dead man was her hus-
band, to which she replied mo" but
stated that he had been working for her
for two years. The story as given out by
the woman and her little boy was to the
effect that the deceased, who drove q
laundry wagon, was in the hal bit of coming
home no later than o'clock in the
evening. Last night. SO the woman
stated, as he drove into the yard about Il
o'clock and as he was alighting from the
wagon he fell, his head striking against a
post or a portion of a dead tree. She
claims that herself and another woman
picked him up and carried him inside
Her story was not believed, as it would
have been an impossibility TO inf1ict such
a wound as found in the back of his head
by falling against tie tree.
The first thing that attracted the Coro-
ner's attention was the large amount OF
blood found upon the bed and the nature
of the wound, which was evidently in
ficted by some blunt instrument. After
questioning the woman closely, but get
ting little satisfaction, gentleman who
resides next door was seen, and he di-
vulged some new and startling features.
He stated that Patre, who has a wife and five
children who reside in France, had been
living with the Latenne woman, and had
been in the habit of beating her children
in a cruel manner.
Several letters from Patre's wife, as well
as a handbook with a credit for 5000 on
the First National Bank, were found
among his possessions. Coroner Campbell
is satisfied that there has been murder
committed and will sift the matter to the
bottom. A post-mortem and inquest will
be held tomorrow.

power for all of Southern California, and
already big filings have been made in tnat
direction by responsible persons. A. 6.
Hubbard of Redlands a few days ago filed
on 1000 inches of water of the Santa Ana
River for electrical purposes. This was
followed by filing by other parties OF
1000 inches at another point on the river.
These will give in the neighborhood OF
10000 horsepower.
The first move, as laid down in the
plans, is to esta blish All extensive electric
railway to take in the street car line of the
city, and to make an extension to Harlem
and Rabel Springs, thence along the foot
hills to the mouth of City Creek and to
Fredalba Park. This park will be made
one of the finest summer resorts in the
southern portion of the State. From FIRE.
dalba Park the road will skirt the high
lands and reach the famous Smiley
Heights near Redlands, thence back to
San Bernardino.
A branch line will also be run from this
city up the mountains into Waterman
Canyon and around to the famous Arrow
head Canyon and Springs. giving stretch
of scenery that will rival Mount Lowe, near
Pasadena. This coming spring will see
work being pushed rapidly on these rail.

and steamers bound down were compelled
to seek shelter and wait for the weather to
moderate.
The prevalence of succession of south
erly and westerly gales has not only in
tensified fears for the safety of the Northern
Pacific steamship Strathnevis, but much
uneasiness is now being felt for the Brit
ish steamer Danube, which left Victoria
two weeks ago to search for the disa bled
steamship. During that period the weather
has been intensely stormy. making it ex-
tremely perilous Cor the Danube to be out
in the gales, and much more SO if she had
the Strathnevis in tow.
Since the Wachusett returned from the
sea badly damaged and leaking, express
sions of fears for the other outward bound
vessels are manifested by shipping men
generally. A prophecy has been made
that the news of other marine disasters
will soon be received, and consequently a
general tone OF uneasiaess prevails among
Puget Sound shipping men.

Time Granted in the Foreclosure Sale of
Raittcay.
DENVER, Colo, Dec. 24.-In the United
States District Court to-day Judge Hallett
declined to permit the hearing of argu-
ments upon q motion for the foreclosure
of the Denver, LeadviIle and Gunnison
Railway under the mortgage, until the
more recent motion to file a cross bill upon
the part of the receivers of the Union Pa
cihc is considered. Arguments upon this
question were heard to-day, the court re-
serving his decision.
When the receivers of the Union Pacific
last year found that the Denver, Leadville
and Gunnison could not be made to pay
operating expenses upon their petition a
separate receivership was created, Frank
Trumbull being named to that position.
Under his management, not only have
operating expenses been met but the road
now shows some slight earnings.
The receivers for the Union Pacific seek
by their cross bill to recover from these
recent earnings the deficit which they had
to meet while operating the South Park
system in conjunction with the Union Pa
clfic. The American Loan and Trust Com
pany joins in this request.

Ore Assaying S125 to the Ton Discovered
by a ProspectOr.
PHOENIX, ARIZ., Dec. 24.-One OF the
greatest gold strikes ever made in Arizona
since the famous Old Vulture find by
Henry Wickenburg in 1864 was made at
Castle Creek, new camp about sixty
miles east of here, yesterday. William G..
Gray of Denver, Colo, Cripple Creek
operator, discovered a three-foot ledge OF
free-milIing ore which assays SIPS ton.
Since the eyes of the mining world have
been turned to Arizona operators have
been on the lookout for valuable proper
ties. 1t was this search that led Mr.. Gray
to visit Arizona since the boom in mining
properties. He has been looking over the
mines here and among others visited the
Castle Creek This camp is one OF the
most promising in the Territory, and
lodges the ore of which essayed from $40
to 500 ton have been found and are now
being worked. 1t is located in one OF the
mountain ranges near here, and from what
Mr. Gray saws the whole camp may be
underlaid with very valuable ore.
Arrangements for the incorporation OF
company and the working of the mines
are already under way.
