A FREED BELL.

In the picturesque little town of Bardsyille, Ky, there is situated one of the oldest Catholic church buildings in that state. It has been enriched by rare paintings by old masters, and the altar piece alone is valued at $10,O00.
 But the article in the possession of the church which is most prized is a bell, the gift of Louis Philippe. When that monarch was about to flee from France he sought the little Kentucky town. where the hospitality of Father Flaget, the first bishop of Kentucky, welcomed him. Bishop Flaget had met the monarch in France.
 Through his efforts Louis Philippe was enabled to start a small class in French. and he taught his pupils in a building still standing on St Joseph's college grounds. When Philippe was restored to the throne he remembered the kindness shown to him in Bards- town, and gave evidence of his grati- tude in presents of several valuable pictures and the bell, the work of Pean Freres, of Lyons, France.
 On one side of the bell is the coat of arms of the royal family of France, and in relief on the other side is a representation of the crucifixion. The bell has an extremely musical tone, and its resonance can be heard for miles on clear days.-Exchange

WILL RENT UMBRELLAS.


 An umbrella-renting company with an authorized capital of $5.000,000 has begun business in New York with eighty stands or stations ill drug stores, cigar stores, shoe stores and barber shops, with view to circulate umbrellas throughout the whole coun- try in time.
 The company stocks up a stand with umbrellas and cheeks. The checks are of aluminium and are good only for the current year. With them is a pock- ct directory full of the addresses of the stands, general information and adver- tisements.
 The check is sold by the standkeeper for S1 and entities the holder to an um- brella at any time he produces it at any stand in the country, but he must give up the check when he takes the umbrella. He may start for Harlem ill clear weather, meet a shower at Fourteenth street, and on leaving the car can secure an umbrella anywhere within a block by delivering up his check.
 If the wind smashes the umbrella or q rib gives way, he can take it to the nearest stand and get new one. When lutsSioWeF CleilTS up He cdn go 10 the nearest stand and exchange his um- brella for one of the company's cheeks, which he can carry around in his pocket. The checks and umbrellas bear no distinguishing numbers, but are rather obscurely marked with the name of the company.
 It may be asked how the umbrella renters can expect to make any money from sucl, a transaction I:tI,seS through loss of checks and tl.efts of umbrellas will be q large factor of profit. 1t will manufacture. umbrellas for sixty-fiye or seventy cents, which would retail ordinarily for over dol lar. The stand owners will get about 10 per, cent for making the changes and get the benefit of additional trade drawn by the renting plan
 The company originated in Boston, and was operated successfully there. An exchange is being established ill Chicago now, and Manhattan borough is fairly well covered between Wall street and Union Square by eighty stands, with fifty applications untitled and 800 i'll contemplation Exchange

If President Roosevelt snubs Miles again, or if perchance lie should be a party to his retirement from the army there is no telling what the result would be. General Miles has lots of friends and admirers, and although they are not with him in all his schemes they do not like to see his helmit trailed ill the dust. To-day's Hartford Courant says: s'There is nothing improbable i'll the reports that General Miles has been talking un- wisely again. It will not do the pres ident bit of harm to remember-and to keep right on remembering-tha Nelson A. Miles wore soldiers uni form before Theodore Roosevelt wore brooches, has been his country's soldier ever since, and has q record of battles and distinguished military services that makes that San Juan Hill affair look very little thing. The lieutenant general should not be permitted to block salutary reforms in army organ ization, but he is entitled to considerate treatment''

paign, though it is quite within the realm Of possibilities to create bet ter trading market. Much will de- pend upon crop reports. The crop sit uation as a whole next season is hard ly likely to be worse than last years with it's small yield of corn and cot ton. Simply average crops this year would save the market from setbacks on that score. The weakest element
 of the situation is the fact that the fi- nancial leaders are carrying heavy lines of stocks bought at high prices,
 which they would like to sell, and the marketing of which mainly depends
 upon their various concentration schemes that have been seriously checked by legal interference, notably ill the Northern Pacific merger pro- ceedings Fortunately there is no question whatever about the ability of these gentlemen to carry the burden which they have undertaken, but they are getting little help from the public.

On Monday the senate passed the ship subsidy bill with but six republi- cans voting against it. The fact that Senator Allison of Iowa voted against the measure was a disappointment to Senator Frye, as he had hoped that the senator from Iowa would support his cherished project. Should the demo- crats in the house and the republicans from those states which opposed the bill in the senate, vote against it, it could not become law. A republican member who stands very close to the speaker says that if the friends of the measure were wise they would not call it up at this session of congress, but would permit it to lie over until the short session, when its chances of adoption would be far better than now. Senator Frye believes that it can pass the house now, but it is quite possible that his friends in the lower chamber will persuade him not to push it at the present time.

Three times within the past week, :" writes a correspondent, .'the president has ayailed himself of the veto power. In each instance the bill so summarily returned to congress provided for the removal of the words "dishonorably discharged' from the military records of individuals who had, either by court martial or desertion, been expelled from the rolls of the army or navy. This action of the president has in- cured the serious displeasure of the politicians, but the reasons which Mr Roosevelt advanced-in every instance they are similar-deserve consideration. He says in one instance in his veto message: It is to the highest degree years after the event, there is as good an opportunity to pass Judgment on the facts as was the case when the fellow officers of the offender found him guilty. The honorable discharge granted to those who with blood and toll have earned it, is cheap ened and rendered of little worth il also granted to their unworthy broth CTS who have forfeited the right to re-. ceiye it. Judging from past experi~ ence there is every reason to assume that, had these bills been approved by the president. they would have been followed by bills awarding pensions to the interested parties, course which has been too often pursued in the past.

Speculative operations are still held in check by absenteeism and the low condition of the bank reserves, says Banker Clews in his latest letter. Very soon the financial leaders who have been south or elsewhere recup- erating will begin to return, and in April the money market will be less exposed to stringency than now. It is quite possible that next month some concerted effort will be made to infuse fresh activity into the market if nothing intervenes; it being an open secret that the big holders are neces- sarily enlisted on the bull side of the market Whether the public will be tempted to re-enter or not, it is impos- sibIe to predict; the inducements are not very great, and there is not the material for any extensive bull cam-

PIROMANIAC CAUGHT
Farley Confesses to Having
 Set Many Fires.
NINE ATTEMPTS IN ONE HOTEL.
Cause of the Numerous Fires of Late In the .Astor House, New York, Made PIain at Last Other
 IncendiarY Attempfs.

NEW YORK, March 22.-Edward J. Farley, a confessed pyromaniac, was arraigned in the Center street court, charged with setting fire to the Astor House at midnight Tuesday last. He has confessed to Fire Marshal Freel of this county to having set fire nineteen different times to various places in New York, and nine of these fires were started ill the Astor House during the time lie was connected with that hotel.
 The circumstances surrounding the two fires in the Astor House Wednes- day night pointed to incendiarism.
 Suspicion was directed to Farley, who "discovered' the first fire and iI1- jured himself ill putting it out. He was also one of the first to reach the blaze in tie room on the top floor which broke out just as the fremen were leaving.
 Close questioning failed to incrimi- nate Farley until last night. He was taken to tue private office of the Astor House and confronted with Fire Mar shal E'reel, Assistant Fire Marshal Me Cough, the proprietors of the hotel and the house detective. After four hours cross examination Farley broke down and confessed.
 Fire Marshal Freel regards him as the most dangerous person of his class in New York. His adroitness in cover ing his tracks was marvellous.
 Suspicion was often directed toward him, but he managed to evade proof. Investigation may show his connection with some of the biggest fires New York has known in late years.
 Farley is a pyromaniac. He says he cannot tell why he started fires, but the fire marshal says his incendiary ten dencies grew out of his thirst for the notoriety and commendation.
 He always discovered" his own fires and generally managed to injure him. self slightly in putting them out. This gave him the opportunity to pose as hero. and he never let an opportunity S1iD
