There Is story tod of supporter

minded the cardinal of his many
promises and his dIlatoy performances
That statesman, who had real regard
for his faithful adherent. and was
unwilling 10 lose his friendship. final-
1y took him b.. the hand one day and
explained the many demands made
upon a person in his situation as min
lister which it would be polite to sat
isfy previously to other requests. as
they were founded on services done to
the state. The suppliant for his fav-
ors. not very confident of Mazarin's
veracity. thereupon replied; My lord.
all ! now ask Is the favor that when
ever we meet in public you will do me
the honor to tap me on the shoulder
in an unreserved manner" The car
dinal smiled and assented and In the
course of two or three years public
tapping Aazarin's supporter became a
wealthy man on the credit of these
attentions. which cost the minister SO
little and the state nothing.

The problem OF tapping the giant
strength of the sun. Of controlling
some portion OF the power and heat
so freely given to man. has been pass
ed from the ancients to the moderns
through the hands OF the greatest men
of learning OF all times without any
adequate solution until the dawn of
the twentieth century. The Grecian
Archimedes. the Edison of his day.
was perhaps the first to handle the
question. and to set it travelling down
the centuries. Ericsson. the American,
and Mouchout. the Frenchman, were
among the last to seek the solution,
and both succeeded in making the sun
operate small motors. Nothing more
was done until DIR. William Calver OF
Washington invented the panhelio-
meter and can now control greater
degree of heat than man ever operated
before. The fiercest degree of heat
that anyone has hitherto been able to
make is the 5000 degrees that have
been registered in the electric arc. DIR.
Calver is able to generate $4,000 de-
grees with absolute safety. while he is
at present at work constructing an ap-
paratus which will easily give him the
mastery over the full amount of heat
that he generates.
With his invention. which, briSfly.
consists of an arrangement of mirrors,
to reflect the suns rays upon a focus
ing spot. DR.. Calver could burn down
a rocky mountain and reduce 1t to a
level plain without as much as light
ing match. Russian iron OF the kind
SO unburnable that it extinguishes the
fire in the fercest furnace melts under
the heat at his control as wax match
Is melted by the fame. Tough silver
coins or stout glass tumblers become
in a moment running liquid in the heat
of the focused rays. while with his
apparatus he will perforate soaking

The School Savings Banks.

According to lately published statis-
tics, there are now 1858 school savings
banks in the United States, which have
b3,16I depOsitOrS. The amount demos
lted In these schools since the work
was established IS placed at $4,000,
and the amount remaining on deposit
at the close Of the last school year was
$33o,OOO. 1t Is doubtful, however, II
these figures are complete. In Mont
gomery county, Pa, where the work
seems to have advanced further than
In any other section Of the country,
the scholars have deposited in about
zen years no less than $175, 300, and
at the close of the year 1000 deposit
ors still had In bank $40,61S. In At
lantic City the deposits amounted to
$G,376 during the last school year.
The school savings bank has gradu-
ally come to occupy an important
place in the country's public school
system. While it is nowhere obliga-
tory that teachers or school officers
shall assume these new responsible
ties they in many cases have volun-
teered to adopt the plan when it's
benefits have come to be understood.
In many parts Of the United States,
and especially in the west, the recent
development of the school banks has
been rapid. There are gratifying in
dications that practical teaching of les
sons in thrift in the public schools may
soon become general, and as the time
approaches for another school year to
begin the savings banks may be warm
ly commended to those who are charg-
ed with the work Of educating the
young people of the land.

Inns and Outs of Anarchy.

New Jersey, especially the town OF
Paterson, is recognized as the anar-
chistic seat OF government in the United
States. 1t was here that the plot for
the assassination of King Humbert OF
Italy, recently carried out was Matched,
planned and the assassination, Bresci,
sent across the seas on his deadly mis-
sion. The dangers of anarchy are not
myths, and since the assassination OF
President Mckinley, the hotbed state OF
New Jersey has been Investigating the
anarchistic ramifcations and the peo-
pie are becoming alarmed. They now
propose strict laws against anarchy and
action will certainly be taken in the
Legislature soon to meet.
Paterson, since the crime of Bresci was
committed, has been found to be honey
combed with the nests of king and presi
dent killers, and it is not by any means
the only town so infested.
The Investigations which the state de-
tectives have been making into the
habits of life and schemes by which the
startling condition of affairs that it was
determined to pass extremely repressive
measures against them.
1t has hitherto been a matter of sur
prise how these plotters against govern
ment lived, especially how they secured
funds for carrying out plots of such
magnitude.
The detectives say they have discover
ed that anarchy is connected with al
most every crime on the calendar and
that they will connect some of the per-
sons now under surveillance with MUIR
der, robbery, Matchmaking, arson and
kidnapping. Their favorite means of OBJ
tanning funds is by Matchmaking, and it
is surprising to what an extent they
carry such nefarious proceedings.
Wealthy people fall an easy prey to their

with those who live in isolated places
and have no particular police protection
to rely upon. The threats by which the
money is obtained take all kinds of
forms, the most common being to burn
down the home or steal a favOrite child.
1t is very evident that there are several
in the plot when such threats are made,
and this fact not only shows that the
anarchists do not act individually, but
also intensifies the fears of their victims
that they will not be able to escape from
their clutches if they refuse to pay the
| toll demanded.
| 1t is their belief that many murders,
the perpetrators of which never were
traced, should be attributed to anar-
chistic groups. This is not the worst OF
their crimes, attacks on helpless women
when refused money being among them.
The discoveries already made of the
utter villainy of many men and women
proved to be connected with purely
anarchistic societies are thrilling enough
to make a new chapter necessary for the
next book on criminology that will be
| written

A number of prominent cattlemen of
the west are prepared to show congress
that during the past five years there
has been an enormous decrease in the
number OF cattle in this country and
that, unless speedy action be taken by
congress, in the course of a very few
years beef will be selling at so fabulous q
price that only the wealthy can afford to
indulge in beef steak. The cause is said
to be due solely to contraction of the
western public grazing lands and in
crease in consumption and demand.

The season of 1901 has shown i'm
portant advancement in the line of
diversity of Palouse country products,
which. not so long ago, we're practically
confined to wheat alone. But change
is coming DER the spirit of our dreams.
While the country this year grew more
wheat, oats and barley than ever before,
the meadow and pasture grasses waved i,
apple orchards fiourished and bore and
potato lots gave good returns on many
an acre heretofore devoted to wheat and
wild oats, and much wealth has been
scattered thereby. A deeper interest has
been taken in the poultry yards and
diaries and in the rearing of stock of all
kinds, an industry which, instead of cur
failing the production OF wheat, increases
it, though upon fewer acres. The future
OF the Palouse country is assured, when
something else beside wheat is turned off
from it's fertile acres.

The Washington Star, as the result OF
an excursion into ancient history, ascer-
tains that Booker Washington is not the
first colored man who has dined at the
White House. A predecessor was Ben
jamin Banneker, negro noted for mis-
attachments in mathematics, especially
in astronomy, and also a linguist OF
note. The president who entertained
him was no less a democrat than
Thomas Jefferson. Moreover, Grover
Cleveland called to the White House
to dine with him, so Kansas people say,
the late C. II. j. Taylor, a negro demo
crat OF Kansas, and the southern demo-
Gratis never said a word. 1t seems to

A new high record for gold engage
ments to Europe from this port was es-
tablished Monday, when gold to the
amount of $7,0S2,5S1 was taken from
the assay Office at New York for ship
ment on the steamer Kaiser Wilhelm der
Crosse. The gold was ordered in the
regular course of business, and, accord
ing to report, all but 81 100000, which
goes to Berlin, will be sent to Paris, the
steamship dropping the greater part at
Cherbourg. The shipments were made
possible by the high rate of exchange,
and it was figured that unless rapid
change OF rates occurs, fully $25, 900, 900
will follow. To offset the heavy exports
OF gold there were unusually large ten
ders of government bonds for redemp-
ton at the sub-treasury. One house
turned in 81 ,6S5, 900, of the As of 1926,
for which $2,64S. 521 was paid out, and
other payments for bonds were made,
the total being in excess of 50, 500, 900.
