Ready for Boarders.

While I was up north last spring, said land speculator, 'I ran across a pioneers cabin situated in the woods and three miles from any other house He got his well water from frog pond. his bak- ing powder and molasses from store six miles away, and the two rooms in his cabin had to accommodate family of eight l told him l was from Detroit. and after talking with him for half an hour was ready to move on, when he said:
 Look here, mister, a good many De- troit people come up north in the summer don't they?'
 Yes. good many
 They spend lots of money and have a good time?'
 "Yes
 I've heard that they wasn't very par ticular about what they had to put up with, so longs they got away from home.

Oak Leaves Fatten Cattle.

From the New York Sun.
 A new fodder for cattle has been discovered in California. The new fod- d. is oak leaves.
 Prof w. w. Mackie of the Univer- sity of California has recently tested it in series of experiments, and he now announces that horses, cattle, sheep and pigs also, can not only live on oak leaves as forage, but that they thrive exceedingly on the fodder
 In some cases oak leaves have kept cattle sleek in pastures which drouth has deprived of grass and natural feed, and the cattlemen have been unable to understand why their stock looked so well with apparently so It. tic to eat.
 southern farmers have known for years that oak leaves were not half bao as catIle food and have used them extensively in artificial cattle food

CHIEF FEATURE A
 LOSS IN RESERVE
DISCREPANCY IN NEW YORk'S MONEY SUPPLY IS CAUSED BY UNREPoRTED WITHDRAWAL DURING THE WEEK.

New York. Sept. 12.-The Financier this week says:
 The chief feature of the official state ments of the New York associated banks last week was the loss of $1,9OS,7O0 in cash reserve, an amount greater by $l,226,20O than the decreases in the traceable move- ments of money during the week. The discrepancy was probably principally caused by large unreported withdrawals of money early in the week which much more than offset the later gains, due to the return to the city of holiday money.
 The deposits were increased $64,30O mak- ing the reserve requirements $16075 more; adding this sum to the loss of cash made $1, ,924,775 as the increase in surplus reserve which now is $15,372, 300 Computed upon the basis of deposits, less those of $37,- 2S5, 900 of public funds, the surplus is $24,- 6936 675. The loans were increased $2l67 GOO, or S62. 700 more than in the previous week. The increase was most likely due to the extension of mercantile accommodations as there was no special transactions in collateral loans reported during the week. The statement shows a fairly good bal ance in the gain In loans, less the loss of cash calling for an increase of s25S,3OO in deposits.
 One feature was gam or sssb4Vo III circulation The loans are $8,3S7,200 in ex- cess of deposits, against $6,2S4,5 800 in the previous week The daily average of clearings for the five days was s155,0OO.- 0o0 while in the week ending September 5 1t was S162, 100000. Comparing conditions in the item of loans. three of the larger banks gained S900.000 net and the same number of institutions show decrease of s1 300 900 net in cash. The surplus reserve now is s14,657125 greater than 1t was year ago, and therefore, the banks are in a far better position to meet the sea- sons requirements from the interior Tor crop and for business purposes. More over, it seems probable that if the secre- tary of the treasury shall be enabled to carry out his policy of increasing his de- posits in country banks. the withdrawals by institutions from the interior rom their New York correspondents Will De much smaller than in previous years at |

Acapulco and Manila.
From the New York Press.

From the New York Press.
 One of the finest of the worlds harbors Is at Acapulcho, or Acapulco, on the Pacific coast of Mexico. One of these days we shall have need of it. It is so deep and so well sheltered that GOO large vessels can ride with safety close to the granite rocks. Here is a city that we know little about, except that in past ages it controlled the entire trade be- tween the Spanish possessions in America and the East Indies. Manila, nearly on the same parallel of latitude, was then thriving city. and between It and Acapulco was conducted and cele- brated commerce through a space of some 40 degrees, or about 8400 miles, more than third of the circumference of the earth. The Manila ships, or galleons. were of great size, but with the decay of this commerce they were gradually re- duced to mere tubs.

Professor Armstrong entered Princeton university from Selma, Ala, at the age of Is and after a four-years' course grad uated with distinction and entered the Theological seminary. After a three years course he went abroad and con- tinued his studies at a German university.
 Upon his return to America he was elected assistant to Dr. Purvis, and sub sequently when the latter accepted a call to the Fifth Avenue Baptist church in New York City, Professor Armstrong as stunned the duties of the chair in New Testament literature and exegesis, as in- structor. After discharging these duties three years he has been elected a full professor at the age of %, very great distinction for one so young.
 Those who have watched Professor Armstrong's career since he became a student at Princeton, will not be surpris- ed at his increasing honors. Here as we'll as abroad no ordinary career was predict ed for him, but that he has fulfilled those expectations at so early a period is worthy of comment from the world of men and women eager to turn the lime light on the achievements of others.
 There IS hardly a parallel case where the young student with the memory yet fresh of his college days assumes a chair as important and the mantle of those whose experience and scholarship would awe men of more youthful years.
 Professor Armstrong Is the son of the late William P. Armstrong of Selma, and is the grandson of the late Major James Isbell of Talladega. He Is a nephew of Major and Mrs. Joseph Hardie of Bir- mingham.

The Venerable Swiss.

From the New York Sun
 It is not every republic that can celebrate the 700th anniversary of it's establishment. The united States dates It's Fourth of July celebration from 1776. The trench republic dates it's Fourteenth of July celebration from 17S9. The republics of South and Central America, large or small, date their establishment from some time in the past century.
 The Swiss residents in New York celebrated in New Jersey last week, in genuine William Tell style, the 712tn anniversary of their national birth In cosmopolitan New York nost sucn anniversaries pass without much notice, but Tn the case of the Swiss the event is worthy of attention.

anything the Americans invent. The suc-
 cess of the plant was complete. The straw bruiser attached to the separator has opened new dawn of plenty for starving animals of the Holy Land. Syrian straw is hard and stiff, and hence it was supposed for ages to be valueless. The bruiser, a steel cylinder with twelve rows of corrugated teeth making 1900 rev. olutions a minute, now makes the straw fit for the animals to eat. The Koran adds our correspondent, will surely re- treat before American machinery and methods introduced simultaneously with American schools. This may be said to be the first death blow struck at Mohame- danism. The Arabs are accustomed to box in dreary 35x 15 room off During slip. fore waged have never welded the slight est influence on the religious fanaticsm of these people.
