Eight reporters of the city
dailies were voted $15Oseach of
state money by the senate last
Friday although they are
regularly paid by the papers
which employ them. Some of
these senators are hard to con-
vince that the. annual ap-
preparation to distribute the
laws through the country
press, which cannot reach the
people SO thoroughly any other
way, whereby each editor re-
ceives about $75, is a good
thing. Whether the solons do
not want the laws they have
passed to see the light, or
whether they are paying these
for leaving things
unsaid about them, we leave
our readers to surmise. Ben

The business world has
found a new expression to &C
count for the peculiar business
conditions of the times, in the
words "undigested securities"
1t is used in all discussions of
the business situation as "com-
munity of interest" was a
couple of years ago. It has
been computed that the people
of the United States annually
save about $85O,OOO,OOO, but
during the past five years,
seven billion dollars worth of
stocks have been cast on the
market, which is enough to
absorb all the surplus capital
and two and a half billion
besides. These are called the
"undigested securities" the
wealth to absorbed which must
be earned and saved before
money will again be cheap.
General business conditions
continue good throughout the
country, and the spectre of
"hard times" is still long way
off.
Morris tribune., 1903-04-18

We sometimes wonder what
advantage the Mort h n
Securities Company is to Mr..
Hill and his friends, since they
own a controlling interest in
both the Northern Pacific and
Great Northern railways, but
since the issue has been fought
so hard, we must conclude that
it is some advantage, and that
is that when the control rests
in a body of unorganized
friends, it is much less secure
than when resting in corpora
ton.

say there is evidence that Paul, for
one, employed stenographers to take
down his sermons and scribes to whom
he dictated his letters. These fore
runners of the stenograpners Of our
days, were called photographic, and
Professor Sarbthausen says that. the
scribe serving Paul had such influence
with his master, that he left his im-

Archives agrees with Bishop Gore, that
several sermons of Paul could not have
survived lest they be taken down by
stenographers.

electricity that the government would
furnish him the funds for perfecting
his invention. "Only two hundred
thousand pesetas are needed and IT the

he claims to be able to propel ships

o MUSIC o
To Sing "Paradise Lost"

The first choral concert of the Philhar
monte club will take place Tuesday even
ing. Nov. II, at International Auditorium.
The work to be given is Theodore Dubois
Paradise Lost Theodore Dubois is one
of the foremost of the French composers
Of the day and the American copyrights
of paradise Lost" were only obtained
last year by G. Schirmer. the music pub
Usher. The work is written in four solo
voices and mixed male and female Choir
uses, the first part Of the work being
given over almost in It's entirety to the
soloists and male chorus.
The chorus of the Philharmonic club last
year numbered 125 voices and was con-
been formed in Minneapolis. Owing to
the fact that this year the concerts will
be given in the International Hall and
that the club, instead of being augmented
by an orchestra Of thirty five instruments,
will have an orchestra of fifty instru-
ments. the board of directors have in-
creased the chorus of the Philharmonic
club to ESQ singers, divided in relative
proportion. The utmost enthusiasm is fell
by the churus over the new work to be
given and it is sure to be success.
The tickets for the chorus of chora
concerts will be on sale Monday morning
at the Metropolitan Music store and the
