No Room for the Band.

Former President Cleveland tells
with great glee of an experience he had
when he was governor OF New York
state.
There was a public meeting at one
of the theaters to which the governor
and his STAFF We're invited. The staff
put on their most gorgeous uniforms
There were fifteen or sixteen of them,
and they were respondent in gold lace
and cord.
When the party reached the theater
entrance they found so many people
there that somebody suggested they
should go around and enter the stage
door.
Then encountered a stolid stage door
keeper who had been at his post for
years and was used to the vile of peo-
Pile who want to get behind the
scenes.
Cant get In here" he said gruf-
fly
But" said Mr.. Cleveland, Il am the
governor"
The door keeper looked the governor
over carefully Apparently he recog-
nized him. for he said: GAN right, gov
ernor you can go I'M
Then he waved his hand at the
gaudy staff and announced: THE band
must go around the other way" Sat-
urday Evening Post.

provision made by Congress for the CO

lty and uniformity TO the currency sys-
TEN OF the silver using countries. In
speaking Of his trip, Mr. Conant said:
think that the Mexican government
will establish a fixed exchange standard
for Mexico, which will continue the
large use Of silver coins. but will pro
vide for keeping them at par with gold
by government control of the quantity.
and by a gold exchange fund in the lead
ing financial centers. The minister Of
finance and other leading Mexican of
HcIals are keenly alive to the disadvan-
tages which the country has suffered
from continuously declining rate Of
exchange. which has compelled her to
give up a constantly increasing proper
ion Of her products in exchange for the
products Of gold countries
I think there viii be TO difficulty
whatever in establishing the new stan
dard with the prudent management
which I think is assured under the ad-
ministration Of President Diaz and Mr..
Limantour. There is no doubt that if
an exchange standard is established It
viii be safeguarded by similar provi-
sions to those IN our own statutes for
maintaining the parity in our paper and
silver money. Mexico already conducts
her fiscal affairs through the national
bank, and does not disturb the money
market by locking up funds Ia the gov
ernment treasury Her credit is good,
and is likely to be greatly improved
with the definite adoption of an ex-
change standard 20
