Military Balloon Photographs.

Military ballooning is, of course, in
It's infancy, and the present Boer war
is practically the first opportunity of
testing its efficacy. Each balloon is
furnished with nearly a dozen cameras
in order to obtain panoramic views of
the country, which are of great value
to the invading army.

A CURIOUS SHOE TRUST.

Doylestown has four odd characters who
pool their issues in buying shoes. They
all have the same sized feet, and each re-
CARDS this fact in he nature of a libel
perpetrated upon him by the other three.
Every year each one of the quartet chips
in $18, and the fund Of $72 is expended for
shoes. Buying them in such quantities.
there is naturally a reduction in price.
One would think that there would be an
equal division of the shoes; but that isn't
their little game. The shoes are owned
collectively, share and share alike. and
when not being worn they are kept in a
closet in the express office. which is the
general lounging place of the quartet. If
one man wants to wear new shoes, he goes
to the express Office and puts them on. If
he wants to change off to a pair that has
already been broken in he does so. If he
wears russets in HI day time and wants
to wear patent feathers in the evening he
goes to the express Office and makes the
change. They have been doing this for
several years. and claim they wouldn't
wear shoes in any other way.-Philade1-

A VIEW OF THE
MONEY MARKET,
Approved by Russell Sage.

q E
1.-THE financial situation in America"
said Mr.. Sage, twas never more legiti-
mate n sound than it is to-day. The
only cloud on the horizon is the present
wal between Great Britain and the Beers.
If by clever craftsmanship international
trouble is aveTted. there is no reason why
good business should not have plain sail
ing in the United States for "a long time.
If the war should be confined exclusively
to themselves, the effect would not be
disastrous in any way to American
finances, for now, after the first shock
our affairs here will run on smoothly and
normally, and a considerable stimulation
in the ,.!ces of our products will ensue.
The great danger is that as one spark
may put a city in flames, SO a wal COM
paratively insignificant in itself may IN
volve several of the first-class powers.
The keenest statesmen cannot foresee the
results.
THE money question here has disturbed
public sentiment for thirty or forty days.
The great demand upon the city banks for
loans has come from all parts OF the
country, as we'll as ron large dealers who
are making applications for great sums
of money for business purposes. That
the country at large is in a very pros
porous condition commercially, is indi-
Gated by the demand upon New York
banks from Chicago, st. Louis, Minnie
apolis, st. Paul, and in fact from almost
all the big cities of the United States.
THAT business men are preparing for
a greatly increased volume Of business

ages from the observers with General
Butler thrown In a phrase or two about
the strength of the Beers positions and
the "diff1culties of Gen. Buffers YORK,
b they do not carry events beyond
Tuesday evening. Their last slender
narratives leave the British advance on
Vaalkrantz. in the center of a semi
circle, where the troops are exposed to
the Boer artillery on both sides and IN
the center. The fighting continued UNI
til 8 o'clock Tuesday evening, and al
most without doubt continued Wednes-
day. as the Beers certainly would not
leave this wedge into their lines un-
molested. It is also inferred that Gen
eral Butler must either continue his ad-
vance or retire.
The heaviest fighting appears to have
been on Tuesday. General Buffers 225
casualties are mentioned as having oc-
CURED before noon Tuesday. Large
losses are consequently expected for the
rest OF the day. The casualties al
ready reported brings the total British
losses during the war to 1924 killed,
wounded and captured.
The disposition here is rather to mini
mize the Importance Of he fighting in
Natal and to suggest hat this is only
an incident anyway, placing hope upon
expected decisive engagements in north
ern Cape Colony, and upon the invasion
Of the Free State by Lord Roberts. At
all events, this is the official view.
9Th public does not like these new
waits and there is sharp anxiety for
further news. In Cape Colony General
Macdonald has had a skirmish with
1000 Beers, and Kooduborg. This was
ing the offensive against General French,
near Rensberg, as well as against Gen
eral Gatacre in the Stormberg hills.
Since the var has strained the re-
sources Of the military system, England
has been troubled by the possibility that
which would weaken the first line of de-
Tense in which the country has placed
such complete trust. This is apprehen-
sion. During the last two or three days,
in half the newspapers in England, the
governments attention a been speci-
ally directed to the muZZle loading guns
Even public men have been painfully
surprised to learn that 16 battleships and
eight ANYMORE cruisers depend upon
muzzlel loadrs. This means that small
er but faster ships with modern guns
would he able to stay 1000 or 1900 yards
out of range and to disable in a leisurly
fashion about one-third of the vessels
which appear in the naval lists as first
class"
The admiralty is understood to be
preparing to remedy this defect and to
propose also considerable additions that
will preserve the persent ratio of Great
Britain's naval strength to that of
France and Germany.
The supplementary army estimate to
March 81 was laid proforma before the
house of yesterday, but was
not made public. It is reported hat the
