The collision on the Baltimore and
Ohio Southwestern r. r, at Aurora,
Ind. Aug. 2nd, 1898, was caused by a
Pendant Set Watch. Although the
watch was TO blame. the engineer was
discharged. Pendant set watches are
dangerous and unreliable. The high.
est court in the United States has sus-
Eained The Dueber Company in its suit
against Pendant Set Watches, and the
Watch Trust who upheld them. PEN
dant set patents were declared invalid,
and the decision relieved the watch
business from the piracy of paying
royalty on worthless patents, Dueber.

which made up twe-fifthS of the total
transactions unsettled the tone early
ard carried prices below Saturday.
level The decline was quite steady
and general for the remainder of the
day
Evidently last weeks sharp recovery
was the result of extensive covering Of
short lines by SPECTATORS and the gen.
eral speculative pubic is now prepared
to pause and take breath to setudy
how far the last oscillation Of the mar
ket had brought prices to the true level
of values.
The monthly report of the treasury
bureau of statistics just issued, throws
light ON the money question. The
amount of circulation after deducting
sums in the treasury, August 1, was
s162, 727, 205 greater than one year be-
fore.
Yesterdays treasury statement show
ed that the cash balance in the treas
ury had increased since that time a
little over $4,000, 200. This would leave
an increase i'm circulation for the year
of about $100,000,000, not counting the
imports of gold and the increase in
bank circulation since August !.
Neither does this take into account
the large increase in the last few weeks
of government deposits with the banks.
There is room, therefore, for a very
largely increased use of money in the
country in spite of the treasury's alb
sprption by the loan.
The technical condition with the sur
plus reserve almost warranted mark
ing up of loans. but there was plenty OF
money to go around at the higher rates

The Presidents difficulty in selecting
a fit man for the post of ambassador TO
England comes at time when it has
some chance Of impressing upon Con-
gress the necessity for increasing the
salary attached to that office. At least
some of the members, notably those
senators who are rumored to have been
asked to take the position, and have
felt that they could not afford to do
so, will remember the subject until
next winter. There are plenty of men
in the United States who could fill tina
position with honor to themselves and
usefulness to their country, but the
number of them who can pay it's iarge
expenses out Of their own means is much
smaller, and, as a matter Of principle
none should be asked to dosso. This

The United States deprived the
Princess Kaiulani of the dominion over
which she would have probably been
queen, but it furnished her husband.
and thereby hangs a pretty story of
romance. The bridegroom to be is
Bradlee Strong, son of New Yorks
ex-mayor, now ON General Merritts
staff~at Manila He ranks as captain
and is said to be one Of the most eff
cient officers on the Philippine expedi-
tiCG.--On the way to the Philippines
stopped at Honolulu, and there it was
that young Strong became a victim to
the charms of the beautiful but dis
appointed princess who might have
some day been queen of Hawaii had
net the United States taken possession.
Captain Strong first met the princess
in England where she was attending
school, but the acquaintance there was
but a formal one, and it was not until
that the young hero became attached
to the princess, who is now just plain
Miss Cleghorn. He was a daily visitor
at the Cleghorn home, and just before
the departure of the expedition for the
remainder of the long journey to
Manila the engagement Of the young
couple was announced. The princess
Kaiulani is only % years old, but She
is a woman of great culture and re-
finement, is q fine musician, an expert
swimmer and an excellent horse
woman, and has the grace and beauty
CT queen. She holds the love and re-
spect of the natives of Hawaii at large,

some day a ., notion might enter her

The Valley Over the Min.

In the golden age when boys wild
heart
Held treasures the sweetest the wide
The rowing bees knew him and taught
III him their art
And guided his feet to the reddest red
clover
Each wildwood then was a wonderful
And filled to the fun his boyish fancy;
And each common thing had uncom.
And thrilled his soul with its NEGRO.
NANCY.
He knew all the secrets the b,uebird
meant
V To keep to himself. but told;
And twas he found the May buds of
sweetest scent
And the king cups of royalest gold;
But the wondering 'breezes whispered low
And his heart would not be still:
For he longed to go where the strange
blossoms blow,
That grow just over the hill
So ON one June day while the bee-kissed
OF the clovers were dimmed with tears
of dew,
He started in search of the valley that
lies
Much farther away than the wanderer
knew;
For the road that leads to THAT dreamed
of place
path to a star
And The top of the hi,a is as far from the
base
AS earth from the portals of heaven is
far.
But the tale is true that the breezes told,
Ard the boy will come some day
To t.le beautiful valley whose garlands
of gold
Have led him SO far away;
And the sweetness then of each blossom
rare
| To him shall be swester still:
| OH the land is fair beyond compare
Waiting there--just over the hill.
