Making railroad. Smoother.

The fact that within the past Is years
two-thirds of the unevenness in rail-
road tracks has been done away with
on certain lines was discussed at re-
cent meeting of the New York Academy
of Sciences. The improvement has been
brought about principally through new
designs and methods of manufacture of
rails. A "track-indicator" car, travel
ing 20 or 30 miles an hour, sums up the
inequalities. the ups and DOWNS" in
the rails for each mile traversed. For
merly the total inequality" per mile
amounted to six or seven feet. even
for the best roads; now it has been re-
duced to only IS or 20 inches, and this
remnant is said to be due to dents in
the rails. It was pointed out that the
improvement, which may be carried
farther, brings with it heavier loeomo-
tives and cars. longer trains and higher
speed.-Youth's Companion.

Better Banking Facilities Needed.

Discussing the poor credit and bank
ing facilities of the west and south be-
fore the last meeting of the American
Economic association, Mr. Thomas G..
Sherman said:
In the II southern states it is impos-
sible that tenth of the farmers could
have any bank accounts or could ever
draw checks in payment for their retail
transactions In the recent campaign
the successful candidate received the
votes of % states, the defeated cantli-
date the votes of 90. The 90 states hold
90 per cent of all bank deposits and de-
positors Deducting from the other %
states the silver states and few large
cities, the remaining vast agricultural
section Of the country, having 40 pei
cent Of the population and rs per cent
of the area, has less than per cent OF
the bank deposits and depositors. This
suggests what was the real grievance OF
this mass Of voters, although they did
not themselves understand it. Their
banking facilities are proportionately
only one-sixteenth Of the rest of the
country

Japan. Experience with silver.

The attempt Of Japan to maintain a
mint ratio that was different from the
market ratio was failure and resulted
in denuding the circulation of gold. BIZ
metallism had failed in Japan as else
where.
The decline in the value of money had
in Japan the effect it always has had Of
robbing the laborer and enriching the
capitalist. The miserable pittance paid
to the wretched operatives must at no
distant period lead to social revolution
unless the rate Of wages be considerably
improved.
In 1872 a family consisting of five
members of the lower middle class could
subsist on 70 yen year. In 1898 the cost
of living had risen to 1870 yen year.
During period of 22 years the silver
yen declined very nearly one-half in its
gold value, about two-fifths in its power
to buy merchandise and about one fourth
in its power to buy labor.
The gold value of the exports from
the United States and England to Japan
was over $1S, 900, coo in 1892 and nearly
$31, 900, 600 in 1896, while the imports
of the two from Japan were over $780,,
900, 900 in the first year and less than
S31, 900, coo in the last year. FIRED

THOSE MCCARTHY BOYS,

Mrs. SINNERS brother James was

at the table when he came. His sister
rebuked him mildly and said it wasn't
her fault if the soup was cold. He re-
piled with great enthusiasm that the
soup was "just right" and, to prove
that he meant it, he consumed his entire
portion. Then he leaned back and
looked inquiringly at his nephew Will
lie, who had been scolded twice already
for whistling at the table.
