Profit by Loss.

1t is fact that to many minds no
doubt must be very curious, that The
Bank of England has always had pretty
steady source of profit in the loss and
destruction Of it's bank notes. What it
has gained of late years in this way we
are unable 10 say, but during a period Of
40 years preceding 1892 the bank has made
clear profit of 81 100000 from outstand-
ing paper never likely to be presented for
payment. When the destruction, or the
irrecoverable loss Of note can be proved,
as in the event of a fire or wreck it can
the bank, Of course, will always pay the
money il represents, and even when there
is doubt about it, the cash is paid on Sc
curity being given for ndemnifying the
bank should the note ever be presented
line 100000 worth of paper-or 100000,
as it appears to have been reduced to-
taken from PARIS bank, will, therefore,
not represent loss unless the crisp little
biliets have some day to be duly honored
at the Bank Of England counter. In that
case the cash paid in exchange for them
will have to come out of the Golfers of
the plundered bank.
Many years ago a bank director lost a
note for 100000. But being a man of
credit and as there was no doubt about
the loss of the bill, he gave the usual
indemnity and got the money. Many
years after, when the man had long been
dead, the paper was presented 1t was
abroad in the ordinary way of business
handed over, and as the indemnity that
had been given was repudiated by the
heirs of the man who had given it, and
for some reason could not be enforced,
the bank on that occasion had to put
100000 on the debit side of The account.
For once in a way they paid double
honor to bit of their own paper
There is another story of a. sum of
100000 which the bank in it's early days
for a short time refused to hand over in
exchange for its own notes. They were
presented by Jew, whose assertion that
he had bought them was not disputed,
and whose personal integrity was above
suspicion. They had, however, undoubt-
edly been stolen, and on that ground the
bank refused to pay the money. The Jew
went out into the city and began to spread
it abroad that the bank was shaky and
couldn't cash its notes, and as he backed
his assertion by displaying his indisput-
able paper, the assertion would in all
proba bility soon have caused Il run on the
bank, and in a few minutes messenger
came to say that the notes would be
cashed if he would present them again

jaw fell, while every one of the $50 fiends
in the seats above began to yell at the tor

long operating tables were about 15(

toy cooking stove, baby carriage, an
embroidered flannel petticoat, nursing
bottle lying in graduated glass, pair
of little blue kid shoes, and other things
too numerous to mention. After the first
shock Of surprise and embarrassment, the
professor was game. He thanked us, in
speech peppered with five-syl1abled
words, for our thoughtfulness in thus
providing for the future needs of his Off
spring, but he observed after careful
examination of the various instruments
of infantile delight spread out before him,
that we had forgotten one thing, a bottle
of paregoric. Then he yawned in a way
suggestive of midnight vigils, and turned

TALK OF ANNA SHAW
q Z. 80 -. ! 49,. Z -. :.
STATE OF REPUBLICS is HANDLED
QUITE FORCIBLY.
Talented Woman Entertains n Large
Audience in the Unitarian Church.
She Made Some Telling Blows
Against the Alleged Sterncr Sex.
All Republics.

Rev. Anna Shaw captivated the large
audience that, listened to her lecture on
"The Fate Of Republics at the Unitarian
church last night. The boundless sarcasm
with which she handled Inc position of
man on the question of enfranchising
woman kept the big audience in constant
good humor, the men apparently appre-
ciating the telling blows that were humor-
sously aimed at them as much as did the
women.
She said that the rise and fall of re-
spublics were all the same and the decay
the same. They have risen with the ma
teria1 energy of man and decayed with the
lack Of moral and religious energy Of
woman. All republics had decayed first
on the inside. The aggressive spirit of
man was the most potent factor in de-
veloping republics, but the moral and re-
ligious decay caused their fall. She
showed that women were more moral and
religious than men and that the decay of
republics was due to the lack of influence
of woman in its government In admit
ting that mans aggressiveness was po-
tent factor in developing the republic sne

side of New England as the woman of
the past was welded to home life, was
fond of old friends, and communities, but
that she had followed the ambitious
young man west that she had held down
the claim for the requisite period, then
the young man had proven up the claim
in his own name and asked her help in
proving up other claims. The young
mans ambitions soon deserted him and
had it not been for the hold-on-stick-to-it
character of the woman, our nation today
would not be nation among the nations
Of the world. Right or wrong, war was
one of the mighty factors in the rise of
republics aiding in attaining the period
Of their material development. She re-
ferred to the history of all republics, and
said that if the United States followed
the way of all the rest, it would be be-
cause we shall fail of Gods high purpose
and intent for us.
In a republic the CLASS voting affects the
government in the long run. The political
control of the saloon element or any other
element would sooner or later assert It,
self in the fate of the republic She re-
ferred to the proverbial ingratitude Of re-
publcs-passing over the good service rem
dered, but never overlooking the bad.
She said that all our legislators were not
bad, some of them were so good .4iat they
were good for nothing. Women had tired
of the tandem arrangement and asked to
walk side by side with man, asserting that
if it were true that men were the great
material elements in forming republics,
women were the great moral and spiritual
factors. They were tired of having to
stay up on the pedestal that men were
so fond of talking of, with only male
idiots, male ina4ans, male paupers and
baby boys for company, and wanted to
come down into the awful arena with
man. Men placed on woman the respon-
sibility of rearing children and then with
hold from them the means of rearing them
rightly. She scored Ingersoll and ingalls,
and legislators generally. She
closed with saying that in looking about
for a punishment fit for treason they had
decide to disfranchise jeff Davis and
She reasoned that If the republics of the
world had died and were dying along the
lines Of immortality there was but one
way to make the weak place strong and
that was to bring the morally strong ele-
state was weak Then we would have a
government of the people, by the people
and for the people.

The reason of our poverty is not

and pulls on a pair of socks from
Lynn, Mass, puts on apair of shoes
from Boston, a suit of clothes from
Philadelphia; goes into his break
fast, draws up a chair made in Chi
cago, and eats from a table which
came from Cincinnati; sweeteus his
coffee from Rio with sugar from
Louisiana; via. New York City,;
takes a slice of ham cured in St.
Louis, and buffers a biscuit of Min.
nessota flour with oleomargarine
which came from Kansas City; he
eats Carolina or Louisiana rice, and
even the very gritS upon his table
we're ground in some northern mill;
he goes to his stable aud puts a
set of harness from st. Louis on a
mule from Kentucky;'hitcbes it to
wagon from illinois, and drives
over to his neighbors and complains
of hard times. OF course times are
hard when everything people eat,
drink, wear and drive comes from
somewhere else, and only the at
mosphere which he breaths is a
