AT our left within the walls are the
castle, of which Caesars tower is all
that remains of the original, and the
armory, which has fine display of
arms.
We next arrive at Bridge gate. At
the southwark is seen the old bridge,
which is of considerable antiquity.
The suspension bridge, seen little
farther up the river, is only for the
use of foot passengers. ard -wa .eEects-

New gate, on the site of which
once stood postern called Pepper

was removed and the new gate erected
in 1908.
Now We are back again at East
gate and but a short distance from
the hotel. After lunch we start for
the Rows. Chester is laid out upon
lines of the greatest simplicity, with
four principal streets, which retain
many old timber buildings, which give
them an unusual and quaint appear
ance, intersecting each other nearly
at right angles.

(Which is not at all to be slighted)
bears the date 1852, and on the lower

Before leaving Chester we must not
fail to visit st. Johns church and pri-

to have been laid in $50. The story
goes that Ethelred, King of Mercla,

were expensive to build and keep up,

The walls of Chester, the only per-
feet specimen of ancient fertilization
in the kingdom, were built by Marius,
king of Britain, who reigned 70 A. D.,
but Ethelfleda, about the year 90S A..
d., greatly repaired and enlarged this
city md :. Ir.r,v..s-sed the walls 40 that
now but few portions Of the original
Roman walls exist although there is
no doubt the present walls stand on
the original foundations.
The Chester cathedral is a large,
irregular pile of buildings, erected at
different periods from the 18th to the
18th centuries, showing surprisingly
pleasing transitions in styles of archi-
lecture. Its general style may be
called Norman-Gothic. The Norman
remains are extremely fine. The most
ancient parts of the cathedral appear
to be the north transept, the north
wall of the ante-choir, part of the east
cloister and the chapel house. The
choir is exceptionally beautiful. The
altar-piece is of highly wrought tapes
try. The subject, "Elymas, the Sor-
cerer, Stricken Blind" is from the
celebrated cartoon of Raphael. The
cloisters are in the north side of the
church, and form a quadrangle ITO
feet square. Originally there were
four walks, but the south walk is now
destroyed.
The western entrance stands pre-
eminent in architectural dignity, and
is said to hive been the work of Alb
bot Ripley, who was appointed in 1885.
Continuing the walk on the walls,
the next attraction which greets the
eye is the Phoenix tower, formerly

The Atlanta Constitution offers two
cash prize contests from January 1st to
April 18th, 1902.
81 800 in cash prizes for agents. These
prizes range from $500 for the highest
agent during the period, in addition
$3.50 will be divided pro rata among all
agents who send twenty or more sub
scriptions and fail to get any other
prize. This is a liberal offer and the
details of it will be sent you by apply
ing TO the Atlanta Constitution, Allan
ia, Ga.
The $1,000 upon the Savannah. Ga.
cotton receipts will be given as follows
To the person sending yearly sub
scription to the Atlanta Constitution
(weekly) together with the correct esti-
mate on the cotton receipts Of Savan-
nah, Ga, from September LIST. 1901, to
April 18th, 1902.
81 600 if the estimate is received dur
ing January.
$500 if the estimate is received dur
ing February.
$3.50 if the estimate is received dur
ing March or up to April 10th.
The above are for the exact estimates,
there are besides these tie following
prizes that will be paid out for the near
est estimates to the Savannah cotton
receipts received at any time during
the contest:
$3.50, 500, SIS, $50, $25, for the next
nearest estimates in their order.
There is also great consolation offer
$500 will be distributed among those
who fail to secure one of the larger
prizes and whose estimates come within
500 bales either way of the exact figure.
This allows margin of 1000 bales with
in which all estimates are sure to re-
ceive part of the prize money offered.
The point is to strike the estimate ex-
actly during January. This is a posi-
biliUy. In a contest similar to this the
Constitution has had the number hit
exactly and paid out 81 900 for the esti-
mate. In another similar contest the
estimate has come within one of the
exact figure, and all the prizes offered
have been paid out upon the estimates
that were not fifty removed from the
exact estimate.

of the Federal treasury surplus is
to spend it; yet the counsel Of

gans must mean this or nothing.
There is about 100000, 900 in
cash lying idle in the public
treasury at the present time, 500, :
100000 of which has been set off
to meet demand liabilities, leay-
ing a net cash balance of about
$40, 10000 But the $780, co.,
600, represents currency actually
locked up. and by the close of the
current fiscal year this impound-
ing of the medium of exchange will
have reached $500, 600, 900, at the
current rate of accumulation. If
Congress shall refuse to reduce
taxation the withdrawal of cur
