TACOMA, WASH. March 29.-The re-

Pacific Bank case. finding four acres of
city lands escheated to the county, has
led to the discovery that another tract of
thirteen acres and another tract of four
acres are, under later law of escheat, the
property of the State for the benefit of the
common schools of Pierce County. The
discovery has caused CONSERVATION among
real estate spectators, who have been
claiming the property as theirs under
bogus titles. Action will now be taken to
assert escheat ownership. George Lewiney
owned the thirteen acres and John Gill
bert the other four. Both died intestate

SPANISH SPLEEN.
How Hatred of Americans Is shown
In Madrid.


4 most interesting article is written
by an American woman from Madrid,
which shows how America, or 'los
Estados Unidos," ana her people are re-
garded in that part of the world. While
the Spanish masses view the Cuban war
with disfavor. yet their hatred of "los
Yankees" is reported as ineXpressible,
On the ground that the latter are the
occasion of that war and the cause of
it's continuance, through their sym
pathy and direct and indirect aid. The
writer tells also of something which,
while a wonderful revelation of the
state of mind prevailing throughout
the Spanish portion of the Celtiberian
peninsula, is amusing because of the
pathological interest that is bound to
attach to it.
The Spaniards have taken to calling
their hogs Yankees" but they have
also added two other words which must
prove peculiarly dissonant to their
sonorous tongue. Two little incidents
bring this matter out One of the
writer's neighbors is the owner of two
of the vilest, shabbiest ours that ever
barked, and they would have suffered
death long ago but for the very pc
culiar virtue that is lodged in their
names. He calls them Morgan" and
"Sherman," and he finds relief in 50
calling and cursing them. Then, in a
village sQuabble between two urchins:
lie called me a Sherman said one, i'm
a fearful rage. "But he said | was Il
Morgan" was the sullen retort of the
other. This Cuban war is represented
as a terrible burden upon the common
people of Spain, but it is "A war, never
theless, of the aristocracy, in which
they must succeed, for if they do not it
means also their own downfall and the
overthrow of the government, with
quite likely a Spanish republic to take
its place.-N. Y. Independent.

ICE MEN,.

How the Hardy Explorers Reached
This Land Is a Mystery.
How paleolithic men got to this land
for it does not seem likely that the
genus homo was indigenous here's a
question that has puzzled the wisest;
perhaps by way of Greenland, over the
bridging ice field which probably con-
nected Europe and America. However.
we know that he did get here, and, as
the first wandering bands of these old
hunters came, we know, too, that they
found land of snow and ice, of great
rivers and many lakes. 1t seems prob
able, from the finding of occasional inn
plements in the older gravels, that the
earliest immigrants arrived while the
glacier was at its maximum.
One unbroken field of ice had spread
over all the north, covering Manhat-
tan island 1000 feet and reaching to
within so miles of Philadelphia. AS the
years passed, more bands of these hardy
explorers reached this land, and as the
second and later recessions of the ice
occurred, with accompanying flooded
rivers, it is likely that a fairly dense
paleolithic population peopled our
river valleys. 1t was a long time since
the first of their race came over the
ice; a far distant past it must have
seemed-as it truly was to these later
day men.
To as the founding of Egypt is so far
away that it seems almost wholly myth
ical; but the time which elapsed be-
tween the period of maximum glacia-
ton and the later days of the epoch
was possibly FIVE times longer. Yet
this is one of the short periods in the
life history of the infant race. Such
was time in the beginning.-Lippin-
colts.

1.-THE CREDIT MAN"
An Important Person in the Com
mercial World
his Duties Are 90 Protect Large Con-
Germs from Imposition on the
Part of Unknown Gus
toners.

The functions Of a credit man are not
generally known to the public, but he is
in many respects the most important
person employed by mercantile con-
Germ. Briefly, he is supposed to be in
formed concerning the commercial
standing of every firm or individual
with whom his own house has any deal
ings. He is kind of walking Brad
Streets" and the firm for which he
works has the exclusive benefit of his
Investigations, his knowledge and his
experience. 1t does not trust to him
alone, of course, because in the case of
n large house there would be rather
more than he could attend to. The regu-
lar mercantile agencies are depended
upon for a certain amount of intOrma-
ton, usually that which concerns the
oldest and richest corporations, about
whose solvency there is commonly no
question. The credit man may, however,
if his employers suspect necessity for
it, be called upon to probe still further
than the regular agencies go, in order to
make assurance doubly sure.
When would-be buyer from some re-
mote part of the country presents HIM
self to a firm to which he is entirely UNI
known, he is introduced at once to the
credit man. The latter receives what
ever credentials the stranger has to
Offer and if he is satisfied that the
house will run no risk in selling TO him
he states the fact, and his judgment is
accepted. Various considerations de-
termine the amount of security which
a new customer is required to show,
and not infrequently it is stipulated
that he shall have a real estate backing
which is known to be responsible. The
credit man also figures out at once the
largest amount of credit which can be
granted to the new buyer, this being de-
termined according to the figure at
which he is rated.
subsequently,, as he runs up bills for
goods, they all pass under the credit
mans watchful eye, and if it is found
that the customer is close upon his
credit limit the last purchase is often
held until it is proved to a certainty that
it's delivery will entail no loss to the
firm. This process of keeping track of
every buyers limit imposes a never
ending task upon the credit man, and
it is one which requires delicate hand
ling, too. While great caution is nee
essary, there must be as few needless
suspicious as possible, for these are
often the means of driving away per-
fectly trustworthy customers, who feel
themselves insUlted by the reflection
upon their financial methods.
In eases where there is good ground
for believing that a customer will bear
watching the credit mans investga-
tions are very thorough He inquiries
as to the private affairs of the buyer il
question; finds out as nearly as posi-
BILE the amount of his income, and how
his money is invested, and keeps al
eye as well upon the way in which he
lives and spends. With every precau
ton, however, there are many losses
and il is the business of the annual con
vention of credit men to discover bet
ter ways each year of protecting mer
camille interests-N. Y. Tribune.

mothers have to put in 20 years of close
