The memory of old Ben Butler,
of Massachusetts,, who has been
dead for several years, is now being
pretty freely aired by the people
who knew him best. The PROPOSE.
ton to erect a monument to his
memory by the Legislature brought
out some of his traits of character
stealing; and there were several
speeches made by the most promin.
ent citizens of the State against it,
who said that a man who had such
an unsavory character as Ben Bat.
Ter, should not be honored by a
monument.

"Persons who deposit money in a
bank, which subsequently fails, lose
more or less of their. money-seld.
ON all of it-but they do not lose
their lives" says the Philadelphia
Public Ledger. cit. is too often
the case that those who have no
faith in banks, but hide their money
at home, lose not only all their
wealth, but their lives as well.
Yesterday the Ledger reported two
such cases in this State alone. Rob-
bers who had learned in some way
that the persons had money in their
houses, aud who knew that they
were defeBseless, broke in, killed
the men and took their cash. 1t is
better TO trust the banks"

A special of the goth from Boston
says that ''neyer before has Boston
seen such vigorous enforcement of

police attack. From one end of
the city TO the other soda fountains
Were SILENT, candy counters covered
and fruit stores closed. On the
other hand, hotels did rushing
business, as liquor could be sold by
them to patrons ordering food"

The Texas Farm and Ranch SAYS
s'England cannot feed her own peo-
pie. Cut off from foreign fields her
people would perish of famine until
reduced at least 40 per cent. Then
she could produce food for the SUR
vivors. Germany is hard pushed to
feed her people and some of the
smaller Kingdoms are not self sup
porting and like England must be
fed by Others. This country feeds
her own people abundantly and
ships to the half-starved nations
of the old world $1,000, 900, 900
worth of agricultural products an
nually. Is it any wonder that for.
eign nations approach the United
States hat in hand and tell him how
they love him, and solicit the
crumbs from bis table.

President Roosevelt has the rep.
utation of being hard headed, and
when he takes the bits between his
teeth, he generally does as he pleas

nounced that General Miles was to
be bounced for his impudence,. but
since the interview had with Sem
ators Hoar and Allison, he has de-
cided to let him remain at the head
OF the army. They very frankly
told the President that public senti-
ment was against him and that such
move would be hurtful to the Re
publican party.

So thoroughly had the bill been con-

as to my whereabouts by the smell of that
particular locality" said a salesman. IF
my nose seemed stuffed with hides and tai
low should know that 1 was In the imme
date vicinity Of Gold, Cliff or Frankfort
street A pronounced odor of spices would
indicate Fulton street, in the neighborhood
of the East river; but If tea and coffee pre-
dominated the chances would be strongly In
favor of Front, Pearl or Water street. a
saccharine quality In the air would suggest
the sugar and molasses neighborhood OF
William, Wall or Front street. Perfumes
would place me at once on Leonard or
Chambers, or possibly Grand street. while
strong odor of soap would let me know thai
Pearl or Murray street, or, perhaps, Green
WITCH or Hudson, was not far or IL the
atmosphere was fairly reeking with the
scent of drugs could figure out that hac
wound up somewhere near Fulton, Wiitiam
or Cliff street. Tobacco would give me
wide range, but should probably be near
Pearl, Pine or Broad street. The smell o.
hops would be sure indication OF White
hail street. West and South streets have
their distinctive odors Of shipping and sea-
mems supplies.
