society with more zest than any man in
public life to-day, says the Washington
Post
At the opera last Monday night Speaker
Reed was very much in evidence. He pro-
PEELED his massive form from box to box,
and wherever he settled himself the air
echoed with hilarious laughter As a cav
alier Reed seemed to be a tremendous sue
cess He comphmented the brilliantly
dressed and attractive looking women, and
said the wittiest things in his inimitable
way until the righteousness of his good
nature permeated the whole atmosphere.
he chuckled so heartily that his laugh
rose above the hubbub of converse ton,
and withal enjoyed himself so hugely that
ne seemed like big boy out of school.
Mr.. Reed has, in fact, reached that point
in life where, having accomplished much
and stepped upon the highest pinnacle of
success, he proposes to enjoy life. His re-
cent appointment as referee for the great
insurance companies provides him with an
income far beyond even his salary as
speaker of the House, so that he has DOW
er and position, with the equally enjoy
able freedom from financial shortcomings.
He will be, in the future, on the sunny
side OF life's pathway. Society will claim
him as its own.

Senator Wolcott and some of the other
silver republican senators are pretending
that if the President doesn't impress upon
the Secretary of the Treasury the neces-
sity for keeping his gold standard views
to himself they will cease to act in har-
mony with their party, and will take their
stand with the extreme silver men. 1t has
even been rumored that Senator Wolcott
has thought seriously of resigning his seat
in the Senate because the President has
not rebuked Secretary Gage for declaring
that the leading purpooe of his plan for re-
forming the currency As to more firmly fix
the currency on gold basis.
There is not the remotest probability that
the senator will resign. He has too much
originality to follow precedent set by the
late Senator Conkling. The talk which he
and other silver republicans are INDUCING
in means nothing more than a purpose to
control elections in the far west in the in
terest of the republican party. There are
senators and representatives to be chos-
en-, and Senator Wolcott and other silver
republicans who are expressing their dis
satisfaction with Secretary Cages gold ut
terances, are simply talking to keep the
silver republicans in the party lines.

One evening not long ago a slight blaze
was discovered in the neighborhood of the
corner of Prospect and Erie streets, and
a rush was made for the fire alarm box
says the Cleveland Plain Dealer As
sometimes happens, the whereabouts of
the key was not known, and for a minute
or two there was lot of wild anxiety
running to waste. All sorts of sugges-
tons were offered, but nobody took adj
vantage of them. Fortunately, a short
policeman came trotting up and presently
produced his key. 1t was attached to a
chain and the chain was attached to him.
1t was a short chain and the box was
pretty high up and the key didn't come
within six inches of the keyhole The
short policeman puffed and tugged.
"Well, by George" he said
Lift him up" roared somebody.
Hold on, boys" said the officer. "Iu
loosen the chain.'
He unbuttoned his coat and vest and the
waistband of his official trousers, and fin
ally released the jangling attachment. A
moment later the door of the box flew
open.
LET me see," said the policeman, "you
turn something, don't your"
The fact is he didn't know anything
about Il
Say, said funny man in the crowd,
will somebody kindly step around and
ask that fire to be as deliberate as possi-
ble?'
This made everybody laugh
Il guess the cop takes this for Lunnon

again.
Pull down de knob" yelled a small
boy, and the short policeman obeyed
Luckily it was only a trif1ing blaze.

mat philadeIphin Bank FaiIure.

While there is no statement in the dis
patches or the Philadelphia papers that
the failure of the Chestnut Street National
Bank of that city was caused by bad man
agement, it looks very much as if that was
the reason the bank was compelled to close
it's doors. 1t seems that the bank was
overloaded with the bonds and notes of a
wood pulp paper mill owned by the pres-
dent of the bank. The amount of the
banks holdings of these collaterals has
not yet been made public. but it is stated
that the presidents Indebtedness to the
bank IS 100000,
Under what provision of the national
banking law is the president of a national
bank permitted to borrow from the bank
100000 more than the banks entire cap
ital, and what sort of bank management
is 1t that enables bank president to Dor
row a large amount of money from the
bank of which he is chief officer on col
laterals worth only a fraction of the
amount borrowed
II is said that at the time they were
pledged the bonds and notes of the wood
pulp paper mills were worth the whole
amount for which they were pledged. Ad-
hitting that such is the case, when was it
that the bonds and notes began to shrink
in value? 1t must have been years ago,
because il has been long time since
paper commanded the price it did when the
bonds and notes were pledged.
And what is to be said of the national
bank examiners who investigated the af-
fairs of the broken bank from time to
time? Did they not know that the loan to
the president was larger than the law
permitted, and did not they know also, long
ago, that the collaterals pledged to secure
the loan had shrunk to such an extent
that the bank was practically unprotected?
These are some of the question which the
reading of the accounts of the failure of
the bank suggest and they are questions,
it seems to us, which outsiders, as well
as depositors and stockholders, are likely

The Kansas City Journal tells this story
concerning the trial OF case in the circuit
court in that city: An incident in the
trial of a lawsuit in Judge Henry's court
made the .jury burst out laugh
ing. Ala Downend was suing Kansas
City for 5000 because of injuries she re-
ceived by tripping over a step in the side
walk on Tween ty-third street. near Wood
land. Attorney George Jones, represent
ing the city, said all through the trial that
the step was no more than the step to the
witness chair in front of the jury and
person would be no more liable to STUN
bic over it,
And you known, gentlemen, that no
person would be likely to trip over that
step there" said Mr.. Jones, pointing TO
the step before him
A moment later Mr.. Jones started to go
to the witness chair and stumbled over
that very step and fell sprawling.

The judges of the district court at Den
yer. Col, have taken a radical step in
court procedure. They have abolished
the grand jury. on the ground that it is
a needless body, and costs the taxpayers
a considerable sum of money. They say
that the district attorney should have the
entire responsibility of making indict-
ments, and they propose that he shall
do it. What a soft snap a smart rascal
in the office of district attorney would
have! He would not need to go to the
Klondike for gold.
