SECOND NIGHT OF "KIRMEss."

E0I<CO@NI -NINTI1I VT
The second night of the Kirmess was
quite as delightful as the first and every
one went home resolved to come again.
The Posing of the Lilies is the first num-
bar after the opening tableau and is one
of the most beautiful features of the Kir-
mess. They are followed by the little po-
licemen, led by Milton Gross, and when
Sylvester Cohn appears as REAR Ad-
mirar' the audience is convulsed and the
applause shows how well his song ASK a
Policeman" is appreciated.
The Thistles seem to be decided favor
ties, judging from the encoras they re-
ceive- These young people dance a Scotch
dance while dressed as the native flower
a very fetching costume.
The Swedish Wedding led by Mabel Ma
gill and Warren Oldham, as bride and
groom. is danced with rythm peculiarly it's
own. The peasant costumes worn are all
the more effective among so many flowers
Speaking Of flowers, the Poppies are the
most brilliant and graceful of any on the
stage. These are led by Mrs. Fred Hellar
and Miss Lillian Lewis
The entertainment would not seem COM
plete without Gypsies and these are rep
resented by eight beautiful young ladies
with tambourines. who dance and pose to
wild Hungarian music, Miss Mamie Houck
and Miss Bessie lines leading the dance.
1t is useless to attempt to describe the
Sunfiowers-you must see them to appre-
ciate them. These noble looking flowers
received a hearty encore, but Hal Nc
Coy, the funny man of the occasion, re-
fused to respond.
The Kirmess will be repeated tonight
with all the dances and those who have
not seen the Roses, Butterflies and
Johnny-Jump-Ups should not fail to see
them in their last appearance.
Social dancing and refreshments will be
enjoyed after the evenings entertainment.

warehouse company. Then the National
Surety Company undertakes to guarantee
the delivery. quantity and grade of the
goods stored in that warehouse. To this
end 1t sends experts. who inspect the goods
and report in detail, with. invoices and
specifications of grade and quantity. Upon
these invoices the goods are insured at
minimum rates. The surety company then
guarantees the delivery of the goods of the
quality and quantity named in the invoices.
The cotton mill company can then take the
warehouse receipt, with the surety COM
pany'S guarantee upon it, and can come
into the market for loan at so per cent
of the value of the goods at very low rates
of interest.
From this 1t appears that a revolut'o on Is
in progress in the banking business, far
as it applies to loans on staple products of
the farm and factory. Any marketable
commodity like cotton, corn. wheat, lum-
Der. pig iron or cotton goods can be handled
in this way. The State Agricultural Society
appointed committee of three to take the
whole matter under consideration. This
committee is composed of James Barrett
of Augusta, Ga, r. f. Crittenden and T.
]. Easterln. They will confer with the
committee on banks and also with the
warehouse surety companies.
1t is a significant fact that the organ
panies are also identified with the great in
surance companies of New York. One of
the leaders in the movement is John A. Nc
Call president OF the New York Life In
surance Company. 1t is evident that the
insurance companies. not being able to get
government securities at rates which would
give them interest enough to sustain the
reserve on policies. are seeking to open up
another field which will give them better
rates with equally good security The sys-
TEN of perfected collateral is an invention
born of necessity, and that necessity is a
new field for the employment of capital.

COTTON SUBTREASURY PLAN.
New Banking Scheme Devised by
GeGrrjA Farmers.

A special to the New York Times from
Atlanta, Ga, says: The subtreasury plan
advocated by the Farmers Alliance so
strenuously in 1902 is about to be put
in practice by business men. The only
essential difference is that what the
alliance wanted the government to do is to
be accomplished by private enterprise. Maj
Hanson of this place, and those who think
with him, advocate a system of bonded
warehouses, of ideal construction, in which
cotton can be stored at low rates of in
surance, with minimum of cost for stor-
age and interest upon the money advanced
on the crop. IL
AS matter Of fact, not only cotton, but
cotton goods, made On southern factories,
and other staplpi products of the farm in
the western antR southern states, are ware
housed at minifnum expense, and receive
advances at interest rates not heretofore
dreamed Of Ofjcourae, it is not practicable
yet to make en6fmolis advances on fuctu-
ating commodities onaa basis of per cent.

ance in its suStreasury plan, but 1t is
not at all impossible under the new plan to
borrow money Ion cotton. manufactured
cotton goods and other staple commodities
to the extent ofqSO per cent of the market
value, at interest rates varying from AZ
to 6la per cent ~
Loans of this character are to be made

money to cotton factors at from to II
per cent. This is to be accomplished by
giving the banks better security. 1t Is now
proposed by capitalists who have formed
corporations for this purpose to warehouse
the cotton at a minimum of expense and to
perfect it as collateral by adding the re-
sponsbility of surety company, wh1ch
guarantees the quantity. the quality Of the
cotton or other products and its delivery
according to contract. For this purpose
two corporations have been formed with
several millions of capital each and with
financiers of national reputation at their
head. One of these Is the Merchants and
Manufacturers Warehousing Company ana
the other is the National Surety Company.
TO show the workings of the new plan

FLYING FOX'S ST. LEGER.
Winner of. the Three Great English
Racing Events.

Ar the second dav of the Doncaster. Eng

race for the ST. Leger stakes was won by
the Duke of Westminsters bay colt Flying

second and r. o. Oswalds bay colt Scintii-
liant third. Six ran. The event is of S125 each,
for three-year- the owner of the sec

ting was : to on Flying Fox; to
against Caiman: 800 to l against Scintil-
liant: 500 to l against Skopos, and 80 to 1
against Dominic IL
The St Leger Is the last of the three
great classic events of the English racing
year. and is always of great moment when
won by a horse that carried off either of
the two other great events-the two thou
sand guineas and the Derby. When in
the case of Flying Fox. the three great
races for three-year-olds fall to the same
horse, he is invested with the infrequent
honors Of the so-called triple crown of the
turf. Flying Fox is the eighth only on this
equine roll of honor, the winners of the
triple event being included in the following
brief list:
ls33-Wcst Australian, 1s9l-Ccmmen,
1StlJ-tiladiatrur. 1S!t3-iSinglaSS.
1S6f-IIurd Lyon. 1S9I-Galtec More.
1856 ormonde. 1Sg9-Flyng Fox.
AS the present Duke of Westminster was
the owner of Ormonde the triple event
goes TO his record for the second time, and
installs him as the most notable turfman of
the day.

A woman Rides COO Miles,

Mrs Jane Lindsey of No. 40 South 10th
street, Brooklyn, yesterday finished a ride
of 600 miles on a bicycle within y hours,
under rules prescribed by the Century Road
Club, and thereby wrested the woman
long distance worlds championship from
Miss Jane G. Yatman, whose record she
beat by an even 100 miles: Her perform
ance is vouched for by the checking system
of the Century Road Club, which requires
signatures of reputable persons along the
route.
In the three days of riding the plucky
woman slept only three hours. Mrs. Lind
sey is a native of Virginia. She learned to
ride last year. and rode her first century
this summer on the run of the Prospect
Wheelrnen She rode the 600 miles on the
same wheel. Miss Yatman, whose record
has been broken, rode her 800 miles in the
week of July u. She was paced most OF
the time during the ride. Her ride was
over Long Island roads and she rode a
wheel weighing twenty-one pounds and
geared to "A
