of Hank Notes by the
Government

At the meeting of the board of health
the other day letter from Henry Pen
ME, of Brooklyn, protesting against
the reissue and use of old bank notes

very serious menace to the health of
the communicate: the banks and
the general government are reissuing
bank notes which have been passed
from hand to hand until they are in an
actually filthy condition and are the

you kindly advise me what action to
take in the matter?"

BOSOM FRIENDS
Are Bryan and AgulnaIdo. the Two Great
Warriors and Patriots.

The two men have developed the
greatest tendencies to forcing them
selves upon the people as the supreme
sovereigns whose will is expressed in
the high old Spanish fashion, order
and command" are Bryan and Aguin-
aldo. Aguinaldo appointed himself
when at Hong Kong, (deported for
CASH president of the Philippines, ,and
he subsequently proclaimed himself
dictator, 1t was his own act.
Bryan was nominated the first time
for President because he made a
speech that took the crowd and the
second time he forced the nomination
by speaking a, thousand times about
the old issues, and then when nomin-
ated he scampered off astrlde para
mount issue"
Now he is before the country as
candidate for an extraordinary session
of congress, and putting down the Am
orleans in the Philippines and putting
up a protectorate there, the most in
fernal performance of the times
The following is a brief but power
full remark by the New York Journal,
who has raised Bryan up from a poll
tical microbe:
1--WE remember that Jefferson
bought Louisiana, but the names of
the constitutional lawyers who op-
posed the purchase are buried with
their empty skulls. We shall always
identify Andrew jackson with Flor
ida Sam Houston with Texas and Sc
ward with Alaska, but to find the
names of the men who opposed these
extensions of the sovereignty of the
republic we must turn to encycloped-
las or dusty archives"
The date of this was June 2. 1898.
That makes a difference. This from
the Journal was a little later:

with are not to be bullied by phrases

fore coed many minds,and the blows

CHECK OR NO CHECK.


The controversy on the relative
merits Of the British and American
baggage systems has been revived by
the complaints of transatlantic Wis
itors who have lost trunks in Eng
land. These. in turn, have called forth
protests against the adoption of the
check system. An Englisman who has
visited America writes TO the Pail
Mall Gazette giving "details of the
troubles which he experienced through
the loss of his checks. the desy and
the alleged impossibility of obtain
ing compensation, declaring" the
Americans tolerate any system. how
ever complicated. so long as it has
the appearance of being businesslike.
Most of the detractors of the check
system miss point by devoting their
arguments against the delay in de-
livering baggage after its arrival. 1t
Is possible that the correspondence
may accelerate the adoption of some
form of the American system. for
partly through the defects of the Eng
lish system no end of trouble and en-
pense is undergone by the thousands
who yearly cross the Atlantic through
loss of baggage.
Another American innovation will
shortly appear in London in the shape
of ESQ laundries run by American EN-
ployes and with American machinery.

volcano on the northeast edge of the
Campeche bank. at the meath of the

The location, by observation made
by the captain. was 1O2 miles north
of Cape Taoche, the nearest point of
land.
The captain says that late in the
afternoon of September Ii he saw "a
great volume of vapor one mile away.
III seemed to cover "a space at least
100 feet square. The air was clear
and the sun shining at the time. He
could see the yapor plainly. 1t arose
like thick cloud of steam 60 or IS
feet in the air. The water around
or near the space seemed to be per-
fectly clear.
"OccasionaIlv the vapor would
clear said the captain. "and then
we saw the water froth and break

sibIe that any shoals exists there, and
If it did that would not account for

OF LITTLE PROMISE.
south American Gold Fields DO Not
OEcr Erillinnt Prospects to
American Miners.

George ii. Moulton, of Colorado,
United States consul to Demerara. in
British Guiana, has arrived in New
York, being on leave Of absence. In
discussing affairs in British Guiana
Mr.. Moulton says:
"The rush to the gold fields of Brit
ish Guiana and Venezuela. which was
expected to follow the settlement of
the Venezuelan boundary dispute.
failed to materialize. The new bound
airy fixed by the arbitration court is
quietly accepted by the people of Brit
ish Guiana and Venezuela. and no
further dispute is likely to arise. Gold
mining is being prosecuted in the
British Guiana gold fields. and there
are few Americans who are there try
ing to make their fortunes.
"The yield of these gold fields is
about S9.O00,0GN "A year All the gold
obtained is secured by placer mining.
No shafts have vet been sunk for lode
mining. Mining in British Guiana is
attended by the greatest difficulties
and hardships, and there is also some
danger to life and limb. The gold
fields are all at some distance in the
interior. To reach them the miners
have to travel through swamp lands
and dense brush. which are infested
by alligators, enormous reptiles and
wild beasts. Everything the miners
carry along has to be packed by men
British Guiana is no place for Ameri-
can miners. They can do better in
Colorado or Montana"
