GAGE EXPLAINS
Secretary Of the Treasury Replies
to the solutions of Con-
gress
! Asking For Information in Re
gard to Deposits in National
Banks.
Done to Avoid Business Disturb
ances by the Piling Up Of
Money. III

| Money. III
III WASHINGTON, Jan. II. Secretary
Gage has sent to congress his replies
to resolutions recently introd uced in
the senate by Mr.. Allen Of Nebraska.
and in the house by Mr.. Snlzer Of New
York. The text Of his reply, which is
an exhaustive exposition Of the man
agement Of that branch Of the treasury
finances under his administration, re-
lating to national bank repositories,
contains about 9, 900 words, which Id
supplemented by special reports from
department. officials relative to special
inquiries in the resolutions, including
copies of over 1000 letters on the sub.
ject under consid tion. In summing
up his reply to the inquiries the secre-
tary says: 89. s 4:
First That the reason for utilizing
national banks as deposit for pub.
lie moneys, as auth horized by law, when
hereceipts of the treasury were ex
ceeding expendi dituros, has been to avoid
disturb to business which the with.
1draWal of large sums Of money from
active circulation to the treasury vaults
must inevitably cause. The policy thus
pursued by me has been the established
policy Of the government for many
years and q departure from it under
similar conditions would certainly
cause disastrous results. ii a. s<.a
Second The reason for directing the
internal revenue. receipts into deposi-
tory banks at this time is that the rev.
enues are now largely exceeding dis:
bursements from month to month, and
seem likely to do SO for an indefinite
time. This condition will be menace
to the business world if assurance were
not given that this surplus would be
diverted from the treasury vaults te
public repositories where, while se-
cure to the government, it would re-
main available to business use.
Third The reason for directing al,
of the internal revenue receipts to one
depository was that it is more ,cenven-
lent to first collect the receipts of the
numerous offices into one place, and t
make the desired dlstri button from it,
than to give new instructions daily to
113 collectors. The most convenient
agency to effect such distribution is q
bank which is a member Of q New York
clearing house. re- # I Il Z
4. Fourth The reason for selecting the
National City bank as such distributing
agent was that at the time the order

The Cat Catcher.

The dog catcher is not the only per-
son in the city who is sincerely hated
by both man and animal. There Is q
cat catcher as well, and he comes in
for his full share Of antipathy. He
makes living ut the business, and q
very good one, it, is said. Few are
aware Of the fact that pussy's fur is =
very desirable article of commerce.
There are any number of dealers in
this city who are glad to pay all the
way from so cents to 81 for a cats
skin, according to size and quality.
The method Of catching the unsuspect-
Ing cat is particularly mean one. It
is well established fact that cats
are very fond Of catnip and will troop
after a man who carries n bundle of it.
This greed leads to the undoing Of
pussy, who will come to stand if a
bit Of the herb is thrown on the ground
and is thus made an easy prey. A bag
and a chloroformed sponge do the rest.
and many household pet, the disap-
pearance Of which caused sorrow, can
be accounted for in this way.-Phila-
delphia Press.

Blue arama Grass.

Blue grama is somewhat tufted 81
matted perennial six inchespto two feet
nigh, with strong growing root stocks
and numerous basal leaves. The inflor.
escence consists of usually two one
sided spikes on slender stems. 1t ex.
tends westward from Wisconsin to Cal.
ifornia and southwark into Texas and
northern Mexico. This grass improves
very rapidly under cultivation. It Is in
full bloom about the middle Of July
and produces fine growth of excellent
hay. a fioe aftermath appears soon at.
ter cutting, which affords excellent
pasturage until injured by severe frosts
In November.
NO other grass better withstands the
trampling Of stock, and on the RANGES it
Is considered among the very best for
grazing purposes. During the dry sea.
son 1t cures in the turf into perfect hay,
which is said to lose none of its nutri-
tive value. Cattle are pastured on this
hay all winter IN the eastern Rocky
mountain region, where 1t is regarded
as exceedingly valuable.

Light without Heat or Waste /,


Professry Langley, of the Smithson-
ian Institution at Washington, d. c., is
in receipt of q wonderful little piece of
what the inventor has termed "radium," !"
that has sent thrill of wonder through
every scientist in the land. The speci.
men was received incased in small
box made of lead, accompanied by in
structions for the professor to open it in
the dark. This was done. a number
of the principal officers of the Institu-
tion repaired to the photograph "dark
room' and the wonderful substance, no
bigger than silver dollar, was taken
from its bed, and before those present
could realize what had occurred the
room was litup as completely as though
the full rays of the sun had penetrated
the place, She substance emitted q
clear greenish glow, and the features of
every one were clearly outlined. There
was o natural hesitancy on the part of
those present to touch the thing, bit in,
yestigation soon proved thai the source
of this wonderful light was cool and
solid, and that it could be handled with
ease.
What is this wonderful substance
1t is discovery made by woman,
Nine. Sklowdowska Currie, of the Mu-
nicipal School of Physics in Paris, and
ii what is claimed for it be true it is the
| light of the future the dream of alchem.
ists-in short, lamp that will burn for.
ever, consume neither oil nor wick, is
devoid of heat and requires no attention.
Nine. Currle was awarded four thou
sand francs, and had her name enrolled
on the books of the French Academy
of Sciences for this discovery, which is
regarded as one Of the most stupendous
of the age, upsetting as it does all hith-
erto accepted theories of heat, light, and
physical energy, and opening up fields
of knowledge heretofore regarded as
beyond the scope of man. This light,
1t is claimed, will not only be very cheap
when first installed, but after that there
will be absolutely no expense in main,
tanning it, even though left to itself fol
centuries. Night after night for an in.
definite period 1t will throw out its bril-
liant rays, and at the end of untold
years the illumination will be as great
as at first. No underground or over.
head wires, no dynamos nor gas retorts,
\ nothing but little disk Of greenist
stone. Place this in the wall or in the
ceiling and rooms will be lighted as long
as the houses stand. - Cincinnati En-
quirer.
