REvERiDeE ON BANKING.
Does Not Look for Any Radical Leg
isIation This Winter,

South Bend, Ind, Sept. 11.-In a
speech before the annual convention
of the Associated Bankers of Indiana,
United States Senator Beveridge pre-
dicted that the coming session of con-
gress would not enact any radical f.
nancial legislation, but said some mod
crate financial legislation which will
relieve the periodically recurring mon
ey stringency in money centers may
be enacted He said:
even if we have very poor mon
etary system it would be better to con-
tinue that system than suddenly to re-
place it by the most perfect system
because all business would pause to
see how it was going to work. Within
banking circles all contention should
cease. Naturally their interests are
the same. If western bankers, when
they do not need their money, would
make loans to customers of New York
bankers for example, as is universally
done, and when they need their money
again, take it away and require entire
financial necessities of business in the
east to be cared for by the eastern
bankers, whose territory they have in,
vaded, western bankers should not OBJ
ject to measure which will relieve
the local eastern stringency which the
western bankers themselves have caus.
ed. On the contrary the eastern bank
ers should not invade the territory of
the western bankers when eastern
money is plenty and thus invite re-
prisals in their own fields by the west
ern bankers Upon the shoulders of
the bankers of the country more than
upon any one set of business men de-
ponds the continuance of our present
prosperity.

rect, while John, aged z years, son of Mrs.
Amanda Kingery, ate of the root but was
not fatally poisoned, Some of the materi-
al was forwarded to ME by Irwin ]. Erhli-
man, of Glenwood. Both of the local pa
pers. the Glenwood Opinion and the Mills
County Tribune, had accounts of the pol
soning, the account in the latter is as fol-
lows:
Ira. aged 10, and Ross. aged years. chill
dren of t. Y. Johnson, died last night from
eating the roots of n poisonous water plant
that grows in front of their house on the
King Creek fiat east of the Ridgeway lum-
Der yard. A third child, John. the T-year-
old son Of Mrs. Amanda Kingery, also ate
the root but it seems was not made so
sick as the others.
Shortly before 6 O'clock the. children
came into the house showing Mrs. johnson
what they had been eating. Not knowing
what 1t was she had them spit 1t out and
throw away what they had in their hands.
They went out to play again, but in about
twenty minutes the two Johnson boys fell
to the ground as il in n fit, soon passing
into commissions. The ISingery lad was
able to walk to his home, but was soon
taken with spasms. DIR. Hester was called
and by vomiting process IN a few hours
had the child on safe ground.
DIR. Lyon was summoned to the John
son home, getting there at 6:3O. The little
fellows were already in terrible convul-
sions and nothing could be done for them,
one dying at Gas and the other at 715.'
Description of cowbane.
"Cowbane is smooth marsh perennial,
two to five feet high. with pinnately COM
pound leaves, two to five times pinnate:
the leaves have long petioles, the coarsely
serrate leaflets are lanceolate to oblOng
lanceolate, one to five inches long; stalks
of the umhellets numerous and unequal;
flowers white: 1ruit broadly ovate to oval,
small, one and one-half lines long. Grows
in marshes and low grounds. The stems
spring from thick feshy underground roots
tnat taper at the lower end. These usually
number from three to five but single speci-
mems are also met with. On cutting the
roots sharp pungent odor is given Off in
tensified on boiling.
Cowbane is w.aely distributed in north
ern and eastern United States. extending
to the Rocky mountains. 1t is seen in low
marshy swamps and is common in many
parts of this state"

ated by spraying when the fruit Is half
grown with decoctipn made by mixing
one-half an ounce of paris green with ten
gallons of water. The worst pest that the
currant grower has to contend with. and
one that Is also injurious to gooseberries,
is the larvae Of a small fly which comes
out of the ground In May or June, and as
soon as they appear begin to lay their
eggs, one of which they deposit in each
currant or gooseberry. The eggs hatch
and the worm which is developed inside the
fruit begins to feed on it. Being on the
inside insecticides are useless, and the only
way to check them is to examine the fruit
and remove each bunch affected. Many
people believe this pest can be destroyed
only by destroying the bushes.
Bee Keeping Accessories.
Among the necessary implements to be
used in manipulating bees, good smoker
comes first on the list. and every one who
has hive of bees should be provided with
one. The matter of handling the bees, be-
comes very simple and easy when smoke
can be applied In the proper manner and
at the right time. pair of sting-proof
gloves are good addition to the amateurs
wardrobe and will give him greater sense
of security, although he becomes more
experienced and better acquainted with
his charges he will abandon their use aud
so att bare-handed. These gloves may be
made out of oilcloth or of muslin and
when they are finished immersed in boiling
linseed oil, and then laid away to dry. The
latter is probably the best method as they
are more pliable and not as likely to break
as the oilcloth article. A bee veil is one
of the things which even the old stagers
do not despise when engaged in working
in the apiary. A sting on the hand is Il
small matter, but a dip on the eye is diff
ferent. good plan to follow in making
n bee veil is to procure some small wire
and construct a framework seven by eight
inches in size. wrapping the ends firmly
with thread Procure silk tulle and stretch
around the sides of this framework and
sew it well, so that 1t will not become dis
placed. This is the part of the rigging
that will protect the face and at the same
time allow the operator to see perfectly.
From the same material cut q piece and
affX it to the rim of the hat, so as to loose
ly hang down in front; this will give adj
ditional protection to the eyes and allows
free vision. Then take n harness buckle
of small size and sed it on the end of a
piece of sheepskin or strap Of very soft
leather. After gathering the back part
of the veil sew it to the strap the distance
from shoulder to shoulder under the arms.
Now make slit in the veil to the top of
the shoulder and bind around so that it
will not ravel out. AT the back of the
buckle sew a piece of silk elastic one-half
inch wide and of the necessary length.
Also sew on Il large hook where 1t is need
ad Mt one end and on the other end an eye.
You will then have n veil that will prevent
the bees from scarifying your countenance
and make you feel perfectly safe while
working with them.
