An Outrage.

Some very mean person has scratched a
skull and cross bones on Hank Fishers
new hotel carriage-buss, besides scratch
ing up the front in an aimless manner.
Just where it was done can not be
proven as yet, but Hank does not believe
it was done en- route. The railroad
company will make the needed repairs
as the damage wa done before the
carriage was delivered. Hank is a very
popular man and has many citizens
with him In hoping the pcrpetrator Of
the outrage will be discovered. The
new vehicle is a handsome carriage and
at tho same time a hotel buss of the
latest and most improved pattern, and
will carry 10 people comfortably.
Hank and the Palace hotel people
whose patronage he represents, are
justly proud of the new acquisition.

THE BANK OF SPAIN.
= QUEER CONCERN WITH MORE HIS
TORY THAN INFLUENCE.

Nothing Like the Bank of England or tho
Bank of France-Not Treated Seriously
as n Factor In international Finance.
The Banks Note Monopoly.
1t is natural to suppose that the Bank
Of Spain is something like the Bank Of
England or the Bank of France, but moth
ing could be much further from the truth
In 1899 private individuals secured from
Ferdinand VII the lrst charter for the
Bank of Spain. This charter was re-
newed in 1856 and again in 1874 The
present charter expires In 1921, II the bank
survives until that time. When granted
in 1874, It was intended that 1t should ex-
pire In 1901, but the government, while
not recognizing the institution as q bona
fide part Of the orown at the same time
has continually made it convenience"
for securing royal funds and willingly
extended the charter limit II years.
The capital of the bank is limited to
150, 900, 900 pesetas. A peseta is equivalent
to 1913 cents and the practical equivalent
Of franc. Tho French monetary system
was introduced in Spain in 1859 and tho
old Spanish namc peseta was retained for
the unit (the france and the pcsota Is di-
vidcd into 100 confines In our money
the capital of the Bank Of Spain is $685.
$50 0O0
Spanish law requires that the minimum
surplus of its bank shall be 10000, 900
pcsctas, or 81 $50, 900, not an extremely
| large sum when it is considered that tho
entire financial brunt of the Cuban war
and now the war with the United States
has been forced upon the bank by the
crown. But as concession TO the private
| individuals interested in the bank and
who, 1t may be presumed, are not suffer
| ers by any condition of the bank today,
| its note issue Is limited TO only five times
its capital; hence to 10000 900 pesetas,
or S144, 75O, 600, provided the amount be
not in excess of four times its metallic re-
serve. It's notes are legal tender and is
sued in denominations of 20, 80, 100, 500
and 200 pesetas. The only aper money
in Spain consists of the notes Jf the Banco
de Espana, and they are SO deprecated in
| value today that exchanged in American
money their worth would be that of curios
for rare book of scraps
Spain, although not adhering to the
Latin union, adopted the same monetary
system in 1868, in reality readoption Of
the French system accepted in 1869. But

ventor of the Maxim -Schupphaus smoke
less cannon powder that Is now used by
the United States, and of maximite, a
compound used in shells.
This wonderful smokeless powder of his
has solved the question of firing high ex-
plosives. 1t is the powder that is used in
propelling his aerial torpedo. This powder
is compound of gun cotton and small
proportion of nitroglycerin. Contrary to
what one might expect it doesn't explode
from concussion, and indeed 1t does not
explode at all, and this is It's specially ef-
feotive quality. There is decided differ
ence between powders that burn, liberat-
ing expansive gases gradually, and those
that explode and discharge their gases at
once. The nonexplosive powder exerts u
more even pressure on the projectile, and
consequently it can be used in firing q
projectile containing a more highly explo-
sive compound.
The gun for firing the aerial torpedo Is
similar to the ordinary rillod gun, except
that it is of greater diameter in order to
take the aerial torpedo. This torpedo con-
sists of steel shell from 8 to 10 feet long,
according to the charge to be carried. The
diameter is twice as great as that Of other
guns, being from 10 to 27 inches.
The charge consists preferably Of gun
cotton, which may be fired by his powder
with perfect safety. 1t is exploded by
| means Of fuse after the manner of ordi-
nary shells. The "a inch Maxim aerial
torpedo may be thrown a distance Of nine
miles 1t contains half ton of compress
| ed wet gun cotton, capable of destroying
| battleship within an area of AZ, 900 square
feet-that is, within a radius of 100 feet
from the point of explosion.
A gun to throw this torpedo would
weigh 46 tons. This is less than the weight
Of many heavy guns of the present type.
An English firm is prepared to build one
| for e7 1000, and Mr.. Maxim has offered to
| provide gun that will throw !, 900 pounds
| of gun cotton nine miles and erect it any
where in the country and supply it with
any number of torpedoes, provided the gov
ernment will agree to purchase it II it full
| fills all the conditions.

ONE GOOD SPANIARD.
ADMIRAL cERVERA A NOBLE AND
WORTHY FoeMAN.

He Is Not Only Highborn and Wealthy
Don, but an Able Statesman, n slsiIIfuI
Seaman and an Accomplished Naval
Omcer.
Really, now, there are some good Span
lards. Admiral Cervera is one of them.
He is fighting in a bad cause, he is act
ing under the orders of men for whom
Americans can have little respect, and
some of his associates are not up to our
standards, but Cervera himself is not an
unworthy foeman. His action in send
ing out word concerning the safety of
Hobson and his men proved that.
Besides this he is an interesting per.
sonality. He looks very little like the
Tam O'Shantered Spaniard with whom
the cartoonist has made us familiar. He
has the face of kind and good man,
open, frank and rather broad. 1t carries
pleasant expression which always
meets you His forehead is high and his
features are regular. He wears a close,
thick beard and mustache, now perfect
| ly white. He resembles Catalonian or
Basque more than a native of the
warm and excitable southern Spain,
from whence he comes. He is fine
type of the courteous, considerate gen.
tleman to whose training a dozen gen.
erations Of proud Spanish nobility have
contributed.
Cervera, the man of wealth, the man
of society, the man of martial history,
being q veteran of two or three wars
and having held the high post of socre-
tary Of the Spanish navy, is not the ac-
cident of the hour. He is eminently the
one man in the Spanish navy for the
post he was sent across the Atlantic to
fill.
When he cleverly avoided the scout.
ing cruisers of our navy and slipped into
Santiago har5or, it was neither luck nor
guesswork that guided him. He knew
where he was going, for he was moving
over waters as familiar to him as the
waters Of Hampton Roads are to Schley.
1t is an interesting coincidence that he
served in Cuban waters in command OF
the gunboat Santa Lucia throughout O
great part of the war Of 1S6S-7S and
that Rear Admiral Monterola, his broth
er officer, who was at that time in com
mand Of the Tornado, is at present the
port admiral of Havana.
AS captain Cervera rendered consid
erable service by his activity in patrol
ling the coasts of Cuba and in making i
difficult for filibustering expedition

Hug the Floor and Follow a Crack.

A building on a down town street was
on fire and the first floor was full of thick,
suffocating smoke. To the crowd outside
1t seemed as II man could not live min
ute in it, as If human lungs could not
possibly endure it, ard yet there were two
firemen in the room. They had gone in,
and had not yet come out. At the end of
ten minutes q fireman struggled out of
the door and stood against ladder pant
ing and struggling for breath. In mo-
ment or two he was apparently all right
"By graciousp' said a man. "That
fellow must have flreproof lungs. He's a
wonder"
After 1t was all over and the flremen
had returned to their engine houses and
were cleaning themselves and the appar-
atus the man who had come through the
smoke was found. He was as ohipper as
II he had never been to fire.
"How do you do it?" asked man.
EASY enough" he answered. "Just
hug the floor. There is no smoke next to
the floor"
"But how do you see to get outS" was
asked. "Surely the smoke Is too thick to
find your way about, and In strange
building you don't know where the door
is. How do you manage itY"
"It's like this" answered the fireman.
"When the smoke gets thick, we get
down ON the floor and work as long as we
can. If we can't do anything and have
got TO get out, we just crawl along crack
and come to the front OF the building. In
the big down town buildings the foor
boards run from the front TO the back,
and II we don't happen to strike the door
we just follow the front wall until we
come to It, That's no trick. "-Kansas
