THE TRINITY ARCHIvE.

The Trinity Archive, the Trinity Col
lege magazine, contains number OF
readable articles, though there is an en-
tire absence of fiction. While in general
college periodical fiction is not of Il
high order it requires q class of talent
that should be more cultivated in our
college. Two papers, Negro Preachers
of Durham and Hacks and Hackmen
of Durham" are devoted to Il study of
phases Of local life, and are an improve
ment on Beyond the Alps Lies Itlay.'
Beneath the Stars is poem of some

ONLY ONE FIRE THIS YEAR.
And the Loss From That One Was
Almost Nothing.

Raleigh has had only one fire this year.
That was in April. The property burn
ed was an old stable back of the Good
Shepherd church rectory. AS the house
was to have been torn down in Il few
days the loss was almost nothing.
Since that time there has not even
tcen an alarm Of fire turned in. This is
a record that perhaps no other city of
$1,000 inhabitants has: Only one fire
in nine months and the loss from that
only Il few dollars.

Last week there was an increase
of $5,00O,000 in the surplus re-
serve of the New York banks. For
many weeks the statements have
shown increases. The financiers
probably understand what this in
dicates, but it does not seem nat.
ural for this accumulation of mon
ey to continue, unless it results
from heavy payments of debts.
Possibly the discharge of mortsag-
es and other obligations is respon-
sible for it. If that is the case the
money goes back into the financial
institutions, where it awaits new
investments.

While the locating Of the quartz
ledge which furnished the placer
gold in the Klondike region makes
that northern mining field look a
good deal less like rainbow chas-
ing, it is not worth while to adopt
the wild idea that nuggets of gold
can be picked up or chipped off
anywhere in that region. The
widest gold ledge is very narrow
wedge in the ground, and usually
the territory on each side Of it is
particularly barren and uninviting.
However big the Klondike lode
may be, there are more than
enough miners up there now to
take it all up.

The paper states that it publishes

the publication of the list he or
