ers to vote upon this question of in
crease OF the capital and surplus of
the bank viii be called for an early
day In June. The date fixed for pay
ment for the new stock vii probably be
about July l next"
The plan TO increase the stock origl-
mated with President James Stillman
and has been under consideration for
a long time. II is said to be the out
come of the national development for
banks of large capital, which follows as
a result Of the concentration Of capital
in New York. In the case Of the city
Bank, however, officials Of the insti-
tuition lay more stress upon the devel-
orment OF their foreign business and
the added security which is given to
depositors through large capital and
surplus.
EXPLAINING THE INCREASE.
As explained by an official Of the
bank yesterday the foreign idea OF de-
posits is different from the popular
opinion here. In this country large
deposits are regarded as an element
OF strength, whereas they are a dis
ability. The idea that they constitute
a heavy liability is the view taken by |
foreign bankers, who express surprise

rinds are left and the gathered pulp and seed taken on to be separated later.
 While the amount of seed that can be marketed is limited, the supply has not yet exceeded the demand. This season the crop. owing to the drought, has been lighter than usual.
 So long. however. as the water in the river is sufficient for irrigation the product from the land can be made very profitable, as the cost of an acre of melons, is not more than the same amount of corn. while the returns are ten times greater.
 The shipment of melons from the up- per Arkansas Valley amounts each year to from 800 to 800 carloads and is all the time increasing. It is one of the favored spots for this industry in it's various forms and the farmers are making the most of it.-New York Sun.

and opened Roots eye with two right swings. Both jabbed. In a fierce mix up Root swung his left squarely on Gardner's ear. getting a left and right in the stomach Gardner uppercut Root three times in the face and get ting him on the ropes, Gardner sent a succession of rights and asts to Roots stomach. This was decidedly Gardners round.
 Round 11-They exchanged lefts to face. Root uppercut Gardner lightly m the stomach and sent left jab to mouth. Gardner uppercut Root on the chin. Root jabbed Gardner on the nose, Gardner landing a right uppercut on Roots chin, dazing him as the gong sounded.
 Round 12-Root put his left to Gard ner's mouth and two rights to the ear. Gardner hooked his left to Roots stomach. Both men lacked steamd- Root hooked a nasty left to Gardner ear and repeated it on the mouth. Root forced the fighting, sending his left twice to Gardners' nose, getting right and left to stomach. This round was Roots.
 Round 13-Root rushed and sent light left to Gardner's nose. An ln- stant later he hooked a heavy one on the same spot. Gardner hooked hls lelC to Roots jaw. Gardner swung his left to Roots ribs Root sent his right squarely on Gardners jaw, daZing him. Root rushed the fighting, endeavoring to land a knockout. Gardner swung a wild right hook which landed on Roots mouth Root was plainly the fresher man at the end of the round.
 Round 14-Root rushed immediately, but received a left uppercut on the jaw and two lefts in the stomach. The men clinched frequently. Root swung a heavy right to Gardner's ear. He re- peated it an instant later on the jaw, following with left on the jaw. Gard ner hooked his left to Roots stomach and received hard left on the nose. This was Roots round.
 Round 15-Root avoided two wild swings and poked his left to Gardners s eve, Gardner opened Roots sore eye with a left, rushed Root to the ropes and sent in a hard right and left to ear and stomach. Root jabbed his left to Gardner's mouth Gardner rushed Root to the ropes and sent a succession of lefts and rights to Roots stomach. Root dropped to the floor from the punsh4 ment as the gong sounded.
 Round 16-Gardner sent hard left to
 Roots mouth and left and right to the stomach. Another rally and Root went to the floor with his hand on his groin, claiming foul. Root was so weak that
 he could scarcely stand up. Gardner
 rushed and played a tattoo on Roots stomach. Root went to the floor from | left hook just before the gong sound- | ed.
 | Round 17--Gardner rushed and swung l his left to Roots stomach. Root tried | wildly for a knockout. but Gardner easily avoided him, Gardner swung his | left to Roots stomach. Root poked his right to Gardner's ear. Root swung a | light left to Gardners ear Root went | down from right in the stomach, talk 1 ing nine seconds. He went down a mo- ment later from a succession of blows,
 and an instant later went down from | Gardner's terrible stomach blows. He
 was plainly unable to continue, and his seconds threw up the sponge while he | was still on the floor.

senators know well enough that it is the differential which they were willing to strike down that enables us to man. ufacture sugar against the cheap labor of the great sugar-producing countries, and they stand. therefore, allied with the Democrats in an assault on pro- lection.
 The shifting of ground which marks the defence put up by the insurgent senators is evidence enough that they are not standing sincerely on any ques- tion of principle. The fact Is that they are opposed to Cuban reciprocity in whatever form it may present itself, and that they lack the courage to say so. This would seem to be proved by the manner in which they fit from one excuse to another, resorting to fallacies which can serve only to cloak some thing which they desire to conceal from the public. However. it is next to a foregone conclusion that we shall hear little or nothing of these excuses when Congress assemblies again. The coun- try is being heard from in such de- cisive manner that we may expect to see the last one of the insurgents come in and surrender.-From the Kansas City Journal

SURRENDER EXPECTED.
Beet Sugar Senators and Repre-.

Beet Sugar Senators and Repre-
 senatatives Are Being Educated.
 When the amended bill came before the Senate it was amended in turn by the Senate committee. which struck out tine Democratic amendment adopted by the House and returned the bill to it's original form. Then the lS insurgent Senators refused to accept the Senate amendment and opposed the 36 sena- tors who were supporting it. In eau GUS they declared their willingness to support the bill as it came from the House, and it is claimed that they signed a written agreement to vote for the bill only as it had been amendment by the Democrats of the House. It be- comes apparent, then, that they were not the defenders of protection, but the supporters of a Democratic measure de- signed in the interests of free trade, and that they have gone on record as being desirous of removing the really protective feature of the whole scheme of sugar tariffs.
 The 36 senators who supported the bill as it had been reported to the House before the Democrats amended it were the ones who stood out for the policy of protection, the impudent claims of others to the contrary not withstanding. These 36 senators wanted the differential retained, so that our sugar manufactories could continue to import raw sugar and manufacture it for the home market. The insurgent

 Origin of Many of the Expressive
 Terms Used in the English Lan-
 guage.
 "Hurrah!" It used to be Hurray!' and the cry is as old as England. It is the battle cry of the old Morse vikings as they swept down to burn and mur- der among the peaceful British. "Tur aid!" was their war cry, which means "Thor aid!"-an appeal for help to Thor the god of battles.
 Its all humbug!" Perhaps it is. Humbug is the Irish "uim boz pro- nounced humbug, meaning bogus mon ey. King James II. coined worthless money from his mint at Dublin, his twenty-shilling piece worth twopence. The people call it "uim bog"
 It was a Roman gentleman of two thousand years ago who first asked "where the shoe pinches." He had just divorced his wife and his friends want ed to know what was the matter with the woman. They declared she was good and pretty. Now" said the hus- band, taking off his shoes, isn't that a nice shoe? It's a good shoe, eh? A new shoe, eh? And none of you can tell where it pinches me"
 Before you can say Jack Robinson" | arose from the behavior of one Jack Robinson. He was a fool. He was in such a hurry when he called on his 1 friends that he would be off before he | had well knocked at the door. ''There they go helter-skelter!" That | phrase was coined at the defeat of the Spanish Armada. The great fleet of the Spanish invasion was driven by storm and stress of the English attack north to the Fielder river and south to the Skeider river-the Scheldt.
 Do you know why a hare is called "puss?" This is not riddle, but just an example of how words get twisted The ancient Latin word for hare was "lepus." The Norman knights who came over with William the Conqueroi pronounced the word ','le puss." The | puss he remains to-day.
