essential If the gold standard established
Dy law is to be successfully maintained in
times of financial stress without derang-
ing the business OF the country.
Secretary Gage is, if possible, more
firmly convinced than ever of the neces-
sity of radical reform in the banking sys-
tenn of the country. He favors legislation
which will permit the establishment of
banks with s25. 900 capital to meet the de-
mands of small communities which will
permit banks to issue circulation UP to
the par value of the securities deposited,
which will reduce the tax on bond Sc
cured circulation and which will permit
the issue-under such restrictions as
shal secure the note holder without inn
parting the security of the depositor-of
a limited AMOUNT of currency against
the assets of the banks, these notes to
pay a tax which will secure the govern
ment against loss in guaranteeing them.
The secretary does not find it neces-
sary to go back to 1896 to find a practical
argument in support of the banking re-
form which he advocates. 1t is only
necessary to refer to the experience Of
the last few weeks, when the demand for
money to move the crops has been felt
at the money centers more than usual
because supplemented by the need for
more money in all the channels of trade
brought about by the increased pros
perity Of the country. In the absence
Of banking laws, which would enable
the banks to respond to this increased
demand by putting out their notes,
which would be retired as soon as the
need for them had passed, the only re-
course of the business community was
to appeal to the treasury department for
adj, which was given by the anticipa-
ton of interest on the public debt.
Students of finance agree with Sec
rotary Gage that a system of banking
which compels the treasury to period
lcally come to the relief of the banks is
radically wrong, not only in creating
a feeling among the banks that the gov
rnmen will come to their rescue when
they get into difficulties. which careful
management might avoid, but also, be-
cause the government might not always
be able to give The relief when needed
and widespread disaster might ensue.
Secretary Gage would not discuss the
bearing of the recent financial situation
upon the question of bank reform, fur
Their than to say that he would probably
use 1t IN his report ito point a moral"

Capetown News: A distinct shock OF
earthquake Was experienced in Capetown
ard suburbs at l2:2S D.. m. on Friday. 1t
was heard as we'll as felt. and in the
suburbs was much more distinctly felt
than n town. which would probably be
due 10 the vibration and noise of the
traffic. 1t was. however, severe enough
to shake several substantial buildings,
would NOT believe that it WAS an earth
quake but attributed both noise and
vibration TO the passing of some heavy
vehicle or blasting operations at a dis
taace, atld there We're vast numbers of
people who knew nothing OF it at all. In

table was laid for dinner. the shock was
sufficiently strong to break the crockery.

Financial Ques lions.

New York, Noy. 3.-A special 70 the
Herald from Washington says: secre-
1ary of the Treasury Gage, in discussing
with the Herald correspondent the fnan-
cial questions which will come up for con-
sideiation by congress, indicates very
clearly that in his annual report he viii
repeat in a general way h:s recommended
ton for the establishment of the gold
standard in law and for such reforms in
the banking laws as will give to the
ountry a more elastic currency. At a
time when many politicians seemed to be
afraid of the word gold Secretary Gage
perceived that the first step in the direc-
ton of monetary reform was to found the
gold standard upon law and not leave it
based merely upon the practice Of the
treasury department. which might not at
some TIM be endorsed by the treasury Of
the Bryan school of politics.
His declaration to this effect before the
banking and currency committee of the
house of representatives caused a lot of
uneasiness among timid men in and out
OF congress. Secretary Gage stands to-
day where he stood two years ago on his
important question of currency by estab-
fishing, the base of the entire financial
system of the country upon positive lines.
lnseparable from the establishment of
a monetary standard is the necessity of
providing an adequate method of MAIN
tanning 1t. That no such adequate method
roW exists the secretary believes is ap-
parent to all who can recall the eXper-
fence of 1893. That the note issuing ard
redeeming functions of the treasury must
be entirely separated from it's ordinary
operations relating to revenues and eX-
penditures. Secretary Gage believes to be

WON'T RIDE HORSEBACK AsTRIDE

New York Correspondence of the Pitts
burg Dispatch: Although enc ma occa-
s~ionally see a woman riding astride in
Central park and elsewhere, the custom
does not obtain to any considerable eX-
tent in New York. The recommendation
of the Denver Human society that wo-
mel should ride astride has revived in
terrst here in the matter. 1t is net likely
that the new style of riding will find
favor here. Riding masters say that wo-
men o horseback are not comfortable
except in a side saddle, and moreover
that they are safer in their kind of
saddle than they would be in that used
by men. Neither of these considerations
would have particular weight, perhaps.
were 1t not that a woman is more grace
full in a side saddle than in the other
style. This is the argument that will
settle the question, of curse.

GOOD ROADS GOSPEL.
a Few Pointed EpigrRms Taken
from "A speech Delivered by
Hon. John T.. brown.

Hon. John p. Brown, of Connersville.
Ind, was recently invited by Gov
Mount TO address the Indiana State As
sociation Of Trustees, and from his
brilliant effort the following bright
shafts of good roads advocacy are wor-
thy Of consideration:
NO influence has been so potent as
the wheel in developing the system
Of good roads, and all of these thousands
of /. a. w. wheelmen are ready TO help
the farmer secure good roads.
Civilization and education are the
results Of perfect highways, not only
among nations, but localities as well.
"Ihe future prosperity Of the state
will be determined by those who are
now in school. Good roads will aid
them in accomplishing their future
work I'm the advancement Of the state.
"A good road cannot be built with
out the expenditure Of much money
and great labor
"A high land tax now means a low
land tax hereafter, while a lowland tax
Is the highest and longest continued.
"All taxes should be collected in
cash.
"All wealth should aid in shat which
benefits all, and in nothing is this more
rue than good roads.

ON which her ftiture vol
are so greatly depends"

CONCERNING CATS.

Over 1000 years ago the cat was a
domestic animal.
Cats do not have the affection for
their masters that dogs have, but they
love their homes far more.
The cat was a sacred animal 10 the
ancient Egyptians and was supposed
TO represent the god Isis, or the moon.
and was after death embalmed after
the same manner that human beings
were. These mummies Of cats are
found to-day in the old Egyptian tombs
a strange thing about the house cat
IS that if allowed to run wild in the
country and get its food by killing rab-
bits, chickens and such live things it
will gradually but surely take the color
and stripes of TIE regular wildcat and
act and live like one.
Ii is well known chat when a cat has
become accustomed TO a certain house
or locality she IS hard 10 get rid of. IF
that be desired. Cover up her eyes and
carry her off in n basket TO a great dis
tanee and she will always come back.
no matter how far it may be. Some ex-
plain this on the ground Of the cats
sense of smell.

ANIMALS FOR TRAINING.

A young walrus that is bought for
$500 when carefully trained Is worth
fully $1,000.
Animal trainers say the most intelli-
gent animals for their purpose are the
walrus, elephant, monkey, seal and sea
lion.
Elephants memories are the most
lasting of any animals. One trainer
had an elephant IN his care six weeks
and taught it many tricks. It was then
shipped away TO a menogerie, where IT
led humdrum life for many months.
It's old trainer coming i'm unexpeqtedlv
however, it obeyed his voice and went
through its tricks perfectly.
Sea lions, seals, walruses and pclicans
are fed on fish when I'm captivity: mon

drink milk-a full-grown hippopota-
mus will get away with Is quarts of
