q son. One legend says that the saint
died from eating too much goose, but
probably that is a slander. Anyway.
the connection OF his name with the
close of the harvest is undisputed.
Once, long ago, st. Martin was pro-
posed as the patron saint of the United
States. England has st. George. France
has ST. Denys, Wales has st. David
and Ireland has St Patrick, but this
country has no sanity protector. Just
why the Bishop of Tours was recon-
mended for the position is not clear,
but perhaps it was because he was cos
mopolitan, having been born in Hun
gary, educated in Lombardy, and
served as soldier in Gaul. But it is
more likely because he was ordained
on the 4th of July, and that his body
was translated on the same date to the
great church and monastery erected
by ST. Perpetnus in his honor.
In her Curious Questions, which is
vastly interesting as well as
curious, Sarah II. KMlikeIly has
this to say: THE phrase Hal
cyon Days so suggestive of peace
happiness and prosperity, is derived
from a fable. The ancient Sicilians
believed that during the seven days
preceding and the seven days following
the winter Solstice, December p. the
halcyon or Kingfisher brooed over
her young in a floating nest upon the
surface of the water, and that during
that period the seas were calm and
could be safely navigated by the mari
ner; hence they called them halcyon
days-when according to Milton.

On the same subject Dryden says:
Amidst our arms as quiet you Shall
be- as hRlcyons brooding on a summer

Indian summer has been traced in
printed books as far back as 1894. Pro
fessor Cleveland Able. of the Weather
Bureau in Boston. is conducting an in
vestigation into its etymology and his
tory, and it is probable that he will
learn something very interesting about
the season.

INDIAN SUMMER: WHAT HISTORY
SAYS OF THE PLEASANT SEASON

Indian summer is upon us. This is
the season Of balmy breezes, hazy
blue skies and warm sunshine. which
serve as warning, however, that win
ter soon will have humanity in its
icy embrace. There has been consider
able discussion as to the time, origin
and meaning of Indian Summer. AS a
matter of fact, it begins about the mid
die of November, and sometimes a lit
tie before, or after there have been
several frOsts and some freezing
weather; when vegetation has been
killed and flies and insects put to
fight and trees have lost their foliage.
Then comes period, sometimes of
two or three weeks duration of warm
weather, which is known as Indian
Summer.
In olden times it was during this
period that the Indians went forth
upon what now is the city's busy
mart, to lin their game, prepared it
and hung it up before their wigwams
to dry. The Indian had no salt to pre-
serve his game, and had to depend
upon nature to dry it for him, and, if
killed before Indian Summer, it would
spoil and be unfit for use. Then,
again, at This season Of the year, the
forests are bare of leaves and the
hunters better were enabled to see
their game.
This season in this country is syn
onymous with ST. Martins Summer,
in Europe The latter derives its name
from the festival of ST. Martin, which
is celebrated ON November II. II also
lis known as the "Halcyon Days" Of
which one hears so much
st. Martin. of Tours was a famous
bishop of the early church, having
been buried on that day Unlike st.
Swithin, he seems to have had no
special connection with the weather
but the weather prophets have had
their adages in connection with his
past. just the same If ST. Martins
day be bright, there will be a cold
winter; If there be frost. the winter
will be mild.

BANK ROBBERS
TeIlerS Steal $6O,O)O From
New York Cooperation
Money Lost in Stock GambIing-Re-
eOiVing Teller Makes Confession
to Bank President

New York. Nov 16.-Defalcations,
amounting, it is claimed, to 100000,
have been discovered in the accounts
Of the Williamsburg Savings Bank, an
instNhtiOn conducted at williamsburg,
in the suburbs of Brooklyn. General
]. V. Meserole, the president of the
bank, is authority for the statement
that the parties implicated in the af-
fair are Harry e. Corbett, a former
paying teller Of the bank. who died
November ,. and George Zollinhofer,
a receiving teller, who. it is alleged,
gave the first information leading to
the discovery.
The bank is fully protected, it is said,
by the bonds of Corbett and collin
hofer. Harry Corbett had been in the
employ of the bank for IS years He
was looked upon as man of exem-
plary habits. and not the slightest sus-
picion attached to him up to the time
of his death
According to General Meserole, on
Friday of last week George collin
hofer. one of the receiving tellers, went
to Cashier William Burns and con-
fessed to him that he (Zolinhofer) and
Corbett had for the past two or three
years taken funds from the institution
for the purpose of stock gambling, and
that so far as he could estimate the
amount that had been lost was be-
tween $500 and 100000. Cashier
Burns had zollinhofer repeat his con-
fession to President Meserole, and a
meeting of the trustees of the bank
followed. The examination was not
concluded that day. nor is it yet con-
cluded, but Irregularities enough were
found to show that Zollinhofer had not
exaggerated the extent of the defalca-
ton.
Zollinhofer. after making his con-
fession, placed himself in the hands
of the trust company and is aiding
them in their investigation of the
books. tHe was, with one exception.
the oldest employe of the bank, having
been with the institution for 80 years.
He is so years old. Corbett died in his
apartments in Brooklyn of pneumonia
on November 3.

Our Opportunity

From the Chicago Inter-Ocean (Rep)
Napoleon Bonaparite started the
beet sugar industry to ruin England's
West Indies. then her most profitable
colonies. Napoleon fell, but his policy
remained. and has induced England 10
ruin her most fertile tropics in ex-
change for a cheap German sugar plum.
Shall we repeat England's mistake
with our tropics? Or shall we rather,
by encouraging the sugar industry in
Cuba and the Philippines, compel Eli-
rope to desist from her aggressive
sugar-bounty policy, and thus upbuild
industries upon the whole of the Amer
lean domain? These are alternatives
before us-to remain dependent upon
Europe for our sugar or by growing it
in our own tropics to become indie
pendent. That is our opportunity.
Shall we seize it?

He Sold the Ducks

While travelling through Brandywine
hundred, near Claymont, recently, the
Wayfarer met young farmer who
was cOngratulatinghimself upon having
escaped from a losing venture and a
great responsibility.
Il have just sold 600 ducks, and j
never will try TO raise that fowl any
more" he said.
Were the ducks diseased?" asked
the Wayfarer, wondering why the man
should feel so elated at having disposed
of his big flock.
mo, they were not, but they would
have landed me in the bankruptcy
court if l had continued to try to keep
them, and / consider that / have saved
my reputation and credit by getting rid
of them. Those ducks just cost me
$3.50 to feed them. and appraising them
at fifty cents each. would mean that
it would cost me three ducks a day,
and i'm the course of a little time
would be in debt and still have no
ducks"
"Who did you sell them tor"
"A neighbor of mine, but he bought
them with his eyes open. for l told
him how much they were costing me.
"How did he remove them?"
I'm wagons. There were four wagon
loads of the ducks. and they were the
nOisiest lot OF quacks that ever passed
through Brandywine hundred"

The great project of canal to unite
the Atlantic and Pacific oceans seems
I'm "a fair way to be realized II has been
the dream Of centuries and has been
held in abeyance only by reason of its
immense cost. A government commits
sion having gone over the ground care

the cost has decided that two routes
are practicable. the Panama and the
Nicaragua. The latter is recommend
ed. and the estimated cost of construc-
tion is S2OO.OOO.OOO
There is a semi-official statement
that England will interpose no objec-
tions to American control, in the new
treaty which will be submitted TO Con-
gress. and there is every indication of
a disposition to enact legislation look
ing to the immediate beginning Of the
undertaking, The President has de-
clared in favor of the Nicaraguan
route. and therefore any measure
which contemplates it's construction
will have his approval There may be
an opposition developed in Congress
owing to there being a sentiment in
favor Of the Panama route, but it is
doubtful whether this will amount to
anything as THE holdings at that point
are of such a nature that for our Gov
ernment to obtain control would de-
velop complications exceedingly dini-

Central Presbyterian Church at La

Much encouragement was derived
from the reports of the secretary and

full of good results. One factor that
contributed to the good feeling aris-
ing from these reports was the state
ment that there was not bit of debt
over the society.
The election of a chief for Penn

Gun Test a Failure.

New York. Nov. 16.-The test of the
Gathmann gun and shell took place
yesterday at the army proving ground
on Sandy Hook, and resulted in a
failure The shell did no material
damage to the target The failure of
inventor Gathmann's theory is
ascribed by him to an imperfect de-
tonation of the fuse in the interior Of
the shell. The army officers, however,
claim that they have found convincing
proof to the contrary. and say that
everything in connection with the test
was as perfect as II was possible Ia
make it in accordance with the in
ventor's ideas. The board decided 10
give a second trial, to which the in
