WILL LIVE IN THE WHITE HOUSE
Mrs. Mckinley. Aunt. Mrs. s...on. to As

Mrs McKinlcy's Aunt, Mrs. sa1ton. to As
sist In tn. Hous"hoid.
Canton. o., Jan. S.-Mrs. Marie Sax
ton, the widow of Mrs. McKinley's
uncle, Thomas w. Saxton, will go with
the president-clect and his wife to
Washington. and expects to make the
White House her home for the next
four years. This arrangement settles
n weighty matter that has agitated
the Canton mind for many months.
While Mrs. McKinlcy's tact and exc
cutive force have never been under
valued, it has always been felt that in
her weakened physical condition it
would be necessary for her to have
the assistance of some member OF the
family whose judgment and expert
ence could be relied upon. Mrs. Sax
ton is a woman of distinguished ap-
pearance whose gray hair and bright
countenance would be observed in any
gathering. and Mrs. Mckinley has al
ways been especially fond of her. She
has always lived in Canton, and her
country home in the outskirts OF the
town is frequently made the objective
point of the daily drive of Mr.. and Mrs.
Mckinley.

the delegates which had been thought
to number 500 are expected to arrive

whose duty it will be to submit Il
final plan to Congress and urge its
adoption by that body. Differences of
opinion exist as 10 whether this COM
mission shall give extended hearing
to various plans for reforming the cur
rency system or shall draw up what
it considers wise without much waste
of time. Whether any full and free
discussion of finance will transpire in
the conference also remains an unde-
cided point there being not a few of
the delegates who have expressed
themselves as opposed to such IL
course and rather favor the placing
of the whole subject in the comm!s.

possible. General feeling is it will
not avail much to urge financial re

San Francisco. Jan. S.-N egotiations
for the formation of powder compact
are again very active. 1t is understood
that an agreement has been reached by
the Judson, California and Giant compa-
nies to advance the price of powder in
Colorado and Montana two cents pound,
and not to enter into any new contracts
on this coast for thirty days. On the
basis of the 15,o00O0O pounds Of high ex
plosives manufactured ON this coast last
year an advance of two cents would
mean 100000 in profits 10 be divided
in the proportion of about 100000 to the
California; S12J,00O to the Giant and
$4,000 to the Judson. Popular faith
in the formation of powder compact is
shown in the advance of the quotations
of Giant stock. A few weeks ago it was
selling at SIT. then advanced TO S21,
and on Thursday reached S2G,5O, falling
back. however, today TO S2J.75.

Chicago, Jan. S.-rhe Dime Savings
bank, with its 10000 depositors, one of
the oldest savings banks in Chicago, will
20 out of existence at the expiration of
the ninety days notice which has been
required of depositors since the suspension
of the National Bank of Illinois.
At the bank little money is being paid
out on account of the ninety days notice
required before deposits can be with
drawn. The rule is relaxed only to peo-
pie who are in serious need of their
money. Deposits have dropped 10 almost
nothing. 1t is said the bank has a re
serve fund of % per cent of its deposits,
but while other savings banks have re-
moved the ninety-days' notice, it has not
been thought wise to do 50 at the Dime
Savings on account of the impending
change in its affairs.

G4.5OO acres, into an immense reser-
1.-THE plain is!to dig n great ditch be-
tween the bottoms and the Arkansas
river at some point near Pawnee Rock
and drive the flood waters OF the Ar
kansas into this reservoir, also to Sc
cure the water of the Walnut and 9TH
er creeks by damming these streams
at their intersection with the ditch
Ihe Cheyenne bottom at its lowest
point is thirty-siX feet below the level
OF the Arkansas at Great Bend. 1t is
proposed to use the water thus secured
for irrigation and other purposes. The
plan has the Endorsement of practical
irrigationists. and the committee ap-
pointed to secure the right of way for
the ditch is meeting with success. 1t
is believed that the climatic influence
of such vast body of water will be
advantageously felt over Il large scope
of country. If the reservoir is com
pleted as planned it will be the largest
artificial lake in the United States, If
not in the world.

In the case of the Fail Brook Irri-
CATION Company VS.. Bradley, Supreme
court of the United States upheld the
right of state to divide It's territory
into irrigation districts. and tax the
property in the districts for the con-
struction of irrigation works. The ac-
ton was begun by the appellee to pro-
cure an injunction restraining the col
lector of the irrigation district from
giving a deed to it of the premises be-
longing to her. based on sale of her
land made by the collector for non.
payment of a certain assessment upon
the irrigation district, and to set aside
such assessment, and for other relief,
on the ground that the act incorporat-
ing the irrigation district was in vio-
lation of the constitution of the United
States and also Of the California state
constitution. The Supreme court held
the Wright irrigation law of California
valid, overruling the decision of the
Federal Circuit court for the California
district The decision does not cover
the inclusion" and Exclusion" acts,
which were adopted as amendments to
the main law. The decision is of i'm
portance beyond the limits of the state
of California, because of the fact that
other states in the semi-arid region
have adopted the law in substance.

The late Archbishop of Canterbury

The late Archbishop of Canterbury
practiced in marked degree the spirit
of liberation toward those who were
doing religious work in other ways
than By the methods he followed. In
one of his sermons he spoke of travel
ing with a literary man who had just
returned from India. Speaking of re-
ligious dissensions, the observer of Ori-
entail men and things remarked, When
a man has passed some years in n
country where people worship cows. he
comes to think comparatively little of
the controversies which separate Chris
tiansy The archbishop said he had
never forgotten the moral of that ran
dom saying. One important lesson
from the useful life of this eminent
man is that fidelity to ones principles
may consort perfectly with the highest
courtesy and kindness to those who
bear another denominational name,
but are serving the same God and
Father of us all.
