ALL In ONE SHORT DAY.
Variety OF Spring Weather and What
1t Leads To.

Variety OF Spring Weather and What
1t Leads To.
In the morning the snow fell as if mill
ions of white birds were shedding their
feathers. BY noon the snow had turned
into sullen, beating rain. yet the sun set
in unclouded glory. That is the history
of an American spring day. This sort of
spring does not inspire poets, but it un-
chains the demon called Grip, and what
havoc he makes in the community! No
trouble to tell when he has begun his mis-
chief. The headache that banishes rest
by day and makes the night long tor
ture; the pain in bone and muscle; the
nervousness; the cough that refuses to be
quieted, and the rawness of throat and
the soreness of lung, all tell the story.
Naturally this vicious foe to life has set
the doctors thinking, talking, and writing.
For once they are agreed. The best of all
Grip medicines is stlmulant to rouse
every latent energy of the body, and at the
same time to be free from every trace of
deleterious matter.
The one stimulant that meets these con-
ditions is Duffy's pure malt whisky. So
SAYS public opinion; so says the medical
profession. Always, at this time of the
year, keep a bottle of this whisky in the
house, and you need have no fear of Grip
or of its consequences. For sale by all
druggists and grocers.

lateness OF the hour prevented any more
than a general account of the affair being
given, the suggestive details having to be
held over for investigation until yesterday
afternoon and for publication this morn
ing.
Marshal Towe. who took charge of the
store imm ed ately after the fire was ex-
tiEguished, interviewed Night Clerk Nc
Donald yesterday. The latter was too be-
wfldered to give any coherent account of
his doings up to the time he quit work
and shut up the store after l O. clock in
the morning.
"As the young man calmed down." said
Towe, she first recollected that be had
left the gas burning behind the screen
where the prescriptions are filled. Subse-
quently he denied this, but eventually
admitted that as he had done so before,
he might have done it again.
when / examined the premises,
found the gas cock half turned on, but
the gas which no doubt was the prime
cause OF the trouble was not burning, no
doubt having been put out by the explo-
sion.
Mcdonald says that he had a five-
gallon tin of benzine on the prescription
table next to the gas stove fed by the let,
but that there was only quart of benz me
in it. That, in itself. was a dangerous
thing. A quart of benzne in q five-gailon
tin gives the space of nineteen quarts for
gas. A full can of benzine would have
been less dangerous.
.'But worse than all, within TWO feet OF
the benzine can and the gas stove stood a
half-ounce vial of nitro-glycerine. used
sometimes by druggists in remedies for the
cure of Brlghts disease of the Kidneys.
''There was enough nitro-glycerine there
to blow up the entire block. Fortunately
the benzine explosion blew out all the
window panes in the store and when tn

ROBBED WHILE ASLEEP.

w. Abbott, n Saloon Keeper, Relieved
of His Gold Watch and Chain
William Hunt was arrested yesterday
afternoon by Detectives Gibson and Wren
and booked at the City Prison on a charge
OF grand larceny.
The complaining witness is w. Abbott,
saloon-keeper on Grant avenue. Abbott
alleges that he was in house at 512 Bush
street Monday afternoon with Hunt and
several others. He fell asleep, and when
he awoke his gold watch and chain and a
diamond locket worth $400 had been taken
from his pockets.
He suspected Hunt, and says that he
can produce a woman who will swear she
saw Hunt taking the articles.

Would Not Pay Rent for a Building
Without an Elevator.
The suit of Dexter. Horton & Co. against
E. II. Kittredge was ON trial before Judge
Seawell yesterday. The plaintiffs de-
manded $3.50 for an elevator that was put
in the building on Mission street now oc-
cupied by W. K. Hearst as publication
office for the Examiner.
In defense Mr.. Kittredge said the ele-
vator was not finished on time and that
Mr.. Hearst refused to pay rent for the
building until the elevator was com pleted.
Because of this delay and for other ex-
penses Mr.. Kttredge declared that he
owed the plaintiffs nothing on account of
their work, and filed a plant
for $2326 IS.
Argument in regard to the law and the
facts will be heard next Monday morning.

BANK STATEMENT.
The weekly bank statement shows the
following changes:
Surplus reserve, decrease, si37, $40.
Loans, increase, $3,4755C0.
Specie, increase, 49,, 300.
Legal-tender, increase, 1927, 900.
Deposits increase, So Al, 100
Circulation, decrease, $685. 100.
The banks now hold so. 122,95O in excess
of the requirements Of the Is per cent
rule.
The New York Financier says this
week: The enormous balances which the
New York clearinghouse banks have
been accommodating for the past few
months are shown in the clearinghouse
statement for the week. Loans are now
within 10000 of the six hundred mil
lion mark and deposits are $685. 2Is.6O0
which is one third the total individual
deposits reported by the $3.50 national
banks in the United States October 9Th
last. The rapid increases made by the
banks since May last will be understood
better when it is stated that the gain
I'm deposits since that time has been S90,-
90 ,O00 and In loans more than SS9OOO.OOO.
Comparative figures show that s5O,OOOCO
of these increased deposits and $iO.OOOOO
of the loans have been made by one bank,
which nOldS at the present lllH6 Ofel
s91. 10000 of net deposits.
The statement of the banks for the week
is favorable. Loans show a continued
increase, the expansion having been dis
tributed among a larger number Of in
stitutions than has been the case for some
time past. The number of banks clearing
through the Clearinghouse has been de-
creased one through the absorption OF
| the United States National by the West
ern National and the increase or Z,2lS,Tt
| in the loans and s3575,OO0 I'm the deposits
| of the latter institution reflects this con-
| solidation. The increase Of deposits FOL
| tho week is due in great part to special
| causes, one bank alone reporting an ex-
pansion in this item of $6,S4S,0o0. which is
| larger than the combined changes OF all
the other banks. This was due 10 cir
| cumstances connected with the Union
Pacific settlement. Five banks gainSd
in deposits nearly A3,OOOOOO, from which
it is to be inferred that the deposits OF
the other fifty-nne banks in the Clearing
House are about 100000 less than at
the end of the previous week.
The gain in cash. according to the state
ment. was 81 .1G6 800. but this, too, seemed
involved in special transactions 1t is
known that the banks received from the
interior more than 100000 In excess OF
shipments, but since one bank alone in
creased it's cash s5,sOOOO0, and the gains
made by three amounted to S50O,oW, 1t
follows that the large majority Of the
banks have decreased their reserves.
The statement. taken as whole, proves
the banks to be in a strong condition.
The large institutions are buying sterling
bills, and as the Union Pacific deal has
been financed without the first suggestion
of disturbance, the outlook is for cheap
money for some time to come.

(Harpers Bazar)
Around me was the beauty
Which only summer yields,
The shadow OF the woodland,
The bounty Of the fields,
The CLEAN Of shining waters,
The murmur of the sea-
The varied book of Nature,
All opened wide for me!
Amid these scenes OF beauty
i spied a pathway there,
All fioyerless and dusty
All hard and brown and bare.
No dainty gown swept over.
No foot In dalliance strayed
Along the narrow limit
The tread OF Toll had made.
But weary men and women
At morn and eve did pass
Beside the way unshaded,
Amid the sunburned grass.
Their step was slow and heavy,
Their garments bore the soil
OF the hard worlds grim ork-day--
They walked tha way or Toll.
So close against our pleasure
Is the undertone OF Care,
OF those who all unsheltered,
The heat and burden bear.
And the fair summer memory
Sweet harvest 10 me yields,
Yet ever lives the picture
or the path across tho nelds!
