"Come in in the morning, and the
bank will have something for you to
do said the president of Broadway
bank to meek looking man whose
hair was white and whose eyes were
marked by deep crows feet as he left
the office, with bright look of sstis-
faction on his face that had not been
there before.
Let me tell you a story" said the
president as he motioned to me to re-.
main. II was living in Iowa, and
three city lots composed the capital
that looked to to; give me start in
business. I held on to them for long
time while working for $35 month
in a real estate Office until they had
advanced in value to $4,000, when
sold them to st. Louis man.

ried to the bank. l made out the de-
posit slip and laid it, with my gold and
bankbook, in front of the receiving

gathered up the money and handbook
and disappeared in the vault with
them. In a minute he was back, and
I was astonished at his actions.

was near by, and asked him about the

fore you came in with your money yes
terday the directors decided not to
open this morning. I was told to give
out no information until business hours
today, and that is the reason didn't

a Japanese Retraction,.'

The art Of retracting without taking

meeting called q public official a thief.
A polio on duty grayely rose and
addressed remark in a low tone to
the speaker, who thereupon said, "The

Although the word Of a sage should
never re-enter, let us make a conces-

JEALOUSY AND PRIDE.

Through One Writer'S Spectac1es
These Two Appear as Virtues.
There Is q little jealousy in all per-
sons and especially in all women. 1t
springs from deep love, which always
desires to be first in the affection OF
the one beloved. A lover, whether man
or maid, who is not susceptible to occa
sional twinges of jealousy is not truly
/ in love- ~ III
While Jealousy, considered with ref
erence to it's origin, is not an ignoble
emotion, it is frequently absurd in its
outbreaks. A father is sometimes up.
sset with jealousy because he imagines
that his wife loves the children more
than she loves him. Mothers are fre-
quently jealous Of the husbands or
wives Of their daughters or sons. Wives
become Jealous Of the sisters or moth
ers Of their husbands. No one is i'm.
mune against the little green bacilli Of
Jealousy.
Generally the tears or frowns of
jealousy are swept away with few
kind words and a caress, but there are
some unhappy persons whose jealousy
Is chronic and who make themselves
ridiculous and annoying by their fits
and storms Of Jealous passion. The
Jealousy of such persons is beyond rea-
son. Indeed, it Is form Of dementia
which begets every sort Of violence.
Pride is the strongest ceafroller Of
jealousy The theologians reckon pride
among the seven deadly sins, but as /,
matter of fact pride is at the bottom OF
much Of the yirtuous action in the
world. Pride is the root Of most bray-
cry. fortitude courtesy, magnaninity,
fnmility and industry. Pride is the es-
genital spirit Of thorough breeding, and
Ia spite Of being enumerated among
The deadly sins pride is not connected

New York Journed: Ex-United States
Senator William N. Roach. who three
months ago was believed to be dying
from a malignant growth which seven

The three physicians who have
charge of his case say that he may vet

his recovery. and in his home, the

the certainty of death has given way to
hope.
The case is SO curious that it may
yet be known in medical annals as the
strange story Of Senator William
Roach Last November an operation
was performed upon him for an inter-
nal tumor. He left the hospital and
was able to move about the house with
assistance, but in the spring it became

Despairing of the efficacy of the
knife, DR.. Robert T. Morris and Dr.. J..
Edward Stubbert ordered X-1.ay and
static treatment
He cannot live forty-eight hours
unless this is DONE" they said. The
great machine was placed in his room
at the Huntington and selectric treat
nent was given daily, the wire springs
CT the bed acting as conductors. A
tube was inserted in the incision made
by the former operation. and through
this the X-ray was applied to the af-
fected part. The apparatus was so
regulated that While it gave forth a
strong light here was no heat.
The attempt was being made to dry
up the tumor which the surgeons had
failed to remove thoroughly with the
knife. Gradually the dangerous syn1p-
toms have been lessened and at last
there is genuine ground for hope.

Mrs. Roach was the widow of A. l..
Pollock, consul at Salvador. who died
there of yellow fever. Singularly it
was DR.. Stubbert who attended him in
his last illness. Mrs. Roach's three
children are Charming Pollock, who is
on William A. Brady's business staff
and is the author of the novel Behold

TELEGRAPHIC MARKET LETTER

Minneapolis, Aug. 1s.-Prices in the
wheat pit continue to be largely inf1u-
enced by weather conditions which
were unfavorable this morning The
period is drawing close when this feat
ure will be of little Importance, as har-
vesting is already we'll under way up
to the southern boundary of North Da-
kota. The market held nearly a half
cent advance until the announcement
of the visible which showed another
decrease, beirg 100000. This was
q bullish factor but the trade felt that
its importance was Offset by other con-
ditions and let go of it's holdings.
Corn frmed up considerably after
opening on the general run of unfavor-
able reports. Receipts were again 43
cars with very small percentage of
the contract quality. The decrease of
I1S,000 had very little influence as it
had been looked for. Should this
weather continue cloudy for another
week Or so it will be question whether
whether Or not the crop will escape
frost damage.
Oats acquired some strength early
but more in sympathy with other
grains than investment buying. There
were 2G1 cars, 2G above the estimate
Provisions on very liberal run at
the yards opened a shade lower but was
followed by an advance. September
pork worked up to SIG where it's popu-
larity again vanished. Of late it has
proven profitable to sell above SIG but
when this pork closes above this price,
we would caution shorts to prepare
for another good upturn.

Complaints are frequently made
TO me as Inspector of Public Roads
OF the 9Th district as TO the present
condition OF the public roads of said
district.
Whenever ] notify Mr.. Hilton, the
Supervisor, he tells me that he has
been instructed by the Board OF
Commissioners TO make no repairs
upon the roads. Such being the
case, who then is responsible
Surely not the Inspector or Super
visor. The fault must evidently be
with the Board of Commissioners
and If the power is vested in them
alone then the Inspector and Super
visor are mon plus.
do not hesitate to say that the
roads of this district are in a worse
condition than any district ia the
county, and will go further and
say, as long as farmers are appoint
ed as supervisors and no doubt for
political purposes, they will remain
bad and be shamefully neglected as
they are now, and have been, as
farming and repairing of roads do
not work together.
/ have called the attention of the
Supervisor TO the dangerous condi-
ton Of the roads leading from Great
Millsand Factory; the Indian Bridge
road the Three Notch road, espe-
cially that portion from California
TO Hermansville.-So of the most
travelled roads in the district lead
ing to the public wharves, over
which have to travel by the light
OF day and darkness Of night endan-
gering not only my life but the lives
of all or any one passing over them,
breaking vehicles aud Gripping
horses, and yet no repairs are made
and the Supervisor tells me that no
more work can be done except by
orders from the County Commission
ers. III this course is continued.
action after action for damages will
be heaped upon the Honorable Board
and justly so, too, and appeal after
appeal made to higher Court for
Justice.
| believe there is legal redress
for the taxpayers of the district. and
they should demand better roads.
IL the physicians are to be inspec-
tors, then let them appoint their
own supervisors and we will give
you decent roads over which you
can travel.

As a stump speaker, Mr.. Shaw
will doubtless prove a diversion, IL
not an amusement. II is reported
that at a recent pow-wow in Balti-
more, the Secretary stopped abrupt
in the midst OF his harangue aud
said THE Band will now play that
republican campaign song, the Star
Spangled Banner. The band did
so and the audience was treated to
the spectacle Of the Secretary OF the
Treasury singing in q sadly cracked
tenor, and in q key Of several tones
above the band, as became his one
of his exalted station, the entire "re-
publican campaign song" When it
it became republican song was not
stated. After attempting to charm
his audience with music 90 the rep
resentative of the Cabinet launched
once more into the subject of reform
ing the financial system Of the coun-
try, but the general impression of
his audience was that he was more
of troubadour than a financier.
-
There is. something refreshingly
guileless about Senator Spooner' s
recent assertion that the democrats
were responsible for the defeat of
the Presidents Cuban reciprocity
policy. Apparently, the Senator
imagines that the people do not read
papers and never heard that the re-
puplicans had a majority of two to
one in the Senate or very nearly
that, and that they controlled a large
majority in the house. He must
have supposed that they never heard
of the republican insurgents led by
Senator Burton in the upper cham
Der and by Representative Tawney
in the House. 1t is certainly a new
doctrine that the minority party in
Congress must help the majority to
make up its mind, but that seems "a
be the view of the Senator from
Wisconsin.

Senator Morgan Of Alabama was
in Washington recently and did not
hesitate to state his position in re.
gard TO the coal situation. He said
Senator Hill is wrong and Attorney
General Knox is right" The coal
trust and every other trust can be
controlled by the common law and
enactments perfectly within the
power OF Congress. 1t remains to
be seen, however, If any republican
majority will dare to enact q law
which will give such, proper power
to the President or his attorney gen.
eral. I
