Brother Is Soldier Doing Duty In

the point of death for several days,
died at the home of his aunt, Mrs. NJ.
l.. Thurston, 113 North Summit ST.,
of tuberculosis, at the age of - years
s months and days.
He has been very low for several
months, still his death comes as a
shock to his many friends in this city.
He was n member OF Co. b, 9Th owl.
and served in the war with Spain.
Eakins enlisted in Go. B, O.N.G.,
January %, 1893, and in April of that
year went with Co. b as a volunteer
for his country. He was not strong
at the time and it was thought that
he could not pass the physical exam
ination. He pleaded so hard that he
was admitted. When the Eighth Re
gimcnt was in Camp Alger he was
transferred to the hospital corps as
sergeant. While the regiment was in
Cuba he was healthy, took care OF the
sick and helped bury many of the boys,
returning in better health than when
he went away. He was soon attacked
by malaria, and the chills and fever so
racked his constitution that he was
soon confined to his bed. His chills
continued till six weeks ago when it
was known that he could not live long.
He was very popular among the boys
of Co. b and well liked by every one.
His funeral will be in charge of Co. b
and will be military. The services
will be conducted by Rev. l.. A. Lin
demuth at the First Presbyterian
church in East Akron, Monday, at 9
pm. Fred Eakins, brother of the de-
ceased, is in the Philippines.

ELKINS
Spoke on the Financial
Bill Today.
Says 1t viii Retire Bank Note
Circulation.


Washington, Feb. 10.--(Spl)- Senator
Elkins of West Virginia said today
that "the pending financial hill is the
most important financial Measure pre-
sentcd to congress since the civil war.
The chief feature and strength of the
bill is its emphatic and unequivocal
declaration in favor Of the gold stand
ard and the conmittal of the United
States TO the payment of its indebted
ness of all kinds, interest bearing and
non-intercst- bearing, in gold, thereby
rendering it impossible that there
should be any doubt in the future on
the subpect, or that there should be
any doubt in the future on the subject,
or that there should be any hope OF
paying the same in a deprecated cur
rency. If the bill becomes Il law, it
would strengthen the public credit at
home and abroad, making it the high
est and safest in the world. One of the
glores of the republic was that Amer
lean labor was the best paid in the
world, and this should be maintained If
possible. The government, at least,
should do nothing that would have a
tendency to reduce wages. The loss
TO the wage carncrs and the country
at large would be greater than the gain
to the government
"Under present conditions and ev-
en- the more favorable ones promised
in the pending bill" Mr.. Elkins said,
in conclusion, mote circulation of Ma
tional banks may disappear. partly be-
cause 1t is not profitable now to the
banks and may not be under the pro-
visions of this bill and partly because
of the prejudice and opposition on the
part of II large portion of the people
to National banks issuing currency;
but largely, and more than all this, for
the reason there will he no need of
crease of certificates against gold de-
posts in the treasury should continue.
To my mind gold certificates with a
reasonable amount of silver certificates
issued under proper restrictions will
be the money of the future. This would
leave with the government the sole
power of issuing money. Therefore,
conclude that it is not needful to
fund the public debt before our bonds
mature by offering Inducements to ma
tonal banks to take low rate bond
and putting out a bond that cannot be
redeemed under 30 years,
IF the law is not already clear, make
il clear that any person in the United
States, in our new possessions, or else
where having gold dollars or gold bull
lion can deposit the same in the treas
ury of the United States and get
certificate redeemable in gold. Such
a certificate would pass current as
money throughout the world
