Gen. Coughs Victory,

A good story is told in connection
with one of "Goof Bahawder's" battles
with the Sikhs. Cough was man OF
extraordinary personal bravery, but
he was also extremely reckless and
impetuous, and his great idea on all
occasions was to charge. His staff.

this dashing description of tactics in
dealing with such an enemy as the
Sinks, persuaded Cough at the com
mencement of one of the more impor.
tant fights to mount high tower, only
accessible by ladder, the suggestion
being made that he could better d.
rect the operations from that emf
hence. Cough climbed to the top of
the tower, and rapidly came to the
conclusion that the only course was.
as usual, to charge; but when he
wished to descend, the staff and the
ladder had disappeared. The story
goes that there was no immediate
charge. and that the battle was won
for that reason.-London Globe.

Salvation Army Leader Will Not Eat
Meat.
Few people are aware that Gen.
Booth, head and founder of the Saliva,
ton Army, who recently visited this
city, is a pronounced vegetarian. in
years he has eaten neither fish, flesh
nor eggs, says the Cincinnati Com.
mercial-Tribune. Even butter, milk
or vegetables cooked with fat are de-
MED. His diet is solely upon cereals,
boiled rice being largely his susten-
ance. He occasionally eats rice for
breakfast, dinner and supper. and
then enters upon the same diet the
next day.
A member Of the army said recent.
ly: Gen. Booth believes in his body.
Yet meats and strong drinks he heart
lily despises. He will not smoke, be-
cause he realizes that he has q nerv.
Gus system that must be protected. He
will not drink, partly from principle
and partly because he realizes that for
every stimulation there is an equal
and consequent reaction. He is a
vegetarian not merely because he be-
lieyes that primitive mankind-the
Adam and Eve of the Bible-were
vegetapians, but because, after long
practical trial, he finds himself far
younger than his years, while the NOR

CHECKS CLEARED BY PHONE
Novel Scheme Is Practiced In the
"Prosperit Belt" .

Down In the Prosperity belt as
we call It, we've got the whole world
beat for real progress" said a coun
try banker who was in the city last
week. After delivering this declara'
ton he bic the end of a cigar and set
! tied back in a chair in lobby Of one
Of the big hotels.
Eyes, stree, We beat the worlG for
genuine progress" he continued.
We've got something down in central
Illinois that you won't find anywhere
else on the globe. It's telephone
clearinghouse. We call 1t a clear
ing-house right here in Chicago or in
New York. Now you'd think banks
couldn't clear their checks by tele.
phone, but, as | said before, we beat
the world for progress and have in.
vented the new system.
The whole scheme Is very simple
and has proved a safeguard against
some of the bugaboos that worry
bankers-such things as oyerdrafts,
for instance. Every day at noon one
bank will call up another. by tele-
phone, read off the amount of the
checks and the names of the drawers.
Some of these checks will b on the
bank at the other end of the wire and
some OF them will be drawn on an in
stitution with which that bank has
business.
Now, you see, half a dozen or more
banks in one county or section of the
state can arrange certain time for
calling up some one Jank, which is
the central bank. All the banks call
this one, notifying it they have checks
on 1t or upon any Of the others.
When each bank has found out
how much it owes the other banks up
until certain hour drafts are for
warded to cover the balances. BY
using the telephone clearing-h house we
expedite business, saving an entire
lay in many instances. It's q paying
scheme and is pretty nkely to be
adopted by other groups of country
banks wherever the telephone is in
general use."-Chicago Inter Ocean.

Americas telephone subscribers who

where the Bell company has the field,

the new company, and the Bell people
are making strenuous efforts to keep
the city council from granting the new
company franchise. Attorney ii. Il.
W. Palmer of the Bell Company, rep
resents 1t the fight made before the
city council. He was reminded that
there had been much complaint from
patrons there regarding the telephone
service, and in reply declared that his
company would make improvements at
an early date, and also guaranteed a
five second service; that ls, that sub
scrIber would not have to wait longer
than five seconds for connection
This may seem amazing to Amerlcua
people-the idea of getting a connec'
