WHY BIG BANKS MERGE.
solidat1on in Large Financial
TrnnsactiOns.

Banks of enormous capitalization
are needed primarily, one of their
most important officers says, ''for the
purpose of financing great enter
prices" This means ability to raise
a $5,000,000 loan at one hours notice
without outside assistance; to supply
a railroad with $4,000, 900 or $15,O00,-
600 whenever it wishes to increase it's
capital; to underwrite new fota tions
in heavy amounts; to finance syndi'
cate operations in foreign bonds; tn
be ever ready to further the projects
with which interests affiliated with
the bank are connected; in various
ways to do at short notice what a
dozen different banks were formerly
required to accomplish, states the
New York Post. I.
Some of these banks admit frankly
that they do not care to do business
with 1.-The small man." That is to
say, accounts showing an average bal
ance of $4,000 or $4,000 are not de-
sired. The officers say that they are
in the wholesale business, and have
no time to throw away ON the ''little
fellow" For that reason one of the
banks already declines personal &C
counts, cultivating principally such
corporations as can show balances OF
100000 or more. Fifty thousand dol
lars is its average balance.
These banks require peculiar man.
agerial ability. Men of small scope
or narrow experience cannot cope
with the difficulties. Officers of such
institutions usually gain the reputa
ton for being cold-blooded, because
of rigid adherence to certain fixed
rules. The chief difficulty, however
lies in knowing when to say Eyes,
rather than Me-" for as one banker
put it the other day, "any fool can
turn down proposition" Not long
loan 100000 in a lump on single
name paper. It was a big transac.
ton, involving heavy liability, but the
customer got his money. Another in.
stance occurred where bank re.
ceived word an hour before it's doors
closed for the day that a check fol
$5,000,O00 had just been drawn against
large account. There was little
skirmishing, but the situation was
met in a few minutes.
Bankers who have studied the
proposition point out that the bank
of great capitalization would prob
ably contribute stability in times OF
financial disturbance. It's influence
might be exercised through efforts to
relieve the strain of an overburdened
money market, or by breaking money
rates when they reached panic level.

SCIENCE IN EATING.
Vegetables That Are Said to Aid

wholesome ingredients. The iron in

not generally made much of by
housewives because it is among the
less expensive kinds, it is put in first

consumption is effica cious.
A too. steady diet of potatoes in

Apples are now held to contain
much sustenance for the brain and to
have an exhilarating effect on the
spirits. Apples contain phosphorus
and also malic acid, which is most
beneficial for people under mental
strain or who habitually do work
which prohibits exercise. The apple
should not be munched between
times, but taken as component part
of the regular meals.-N. Y. Sun.

WAS CHARMING HOSTESS,

White House Mistress Under
President Buchanan.

The recent serious illness of Mrs.
Harriet Lane Johnston, and the an
nouncement that she will this sum.

in an effort to regain her health, has
again brought into the public eye
one of the most interesting feminine
figures in American history. So qui-

tunity to realize that place is yet
occupied in the social life at the
capital by a woman who was the
most noted of antibellum days, and
the greatest of all the bellies of the
white house.
Mrs. Johnston has, since the ascen.

tons highest position, been several
times prevailed upon to assist in the
dispensation of hospitality at the
white house, and there is . particu'

ENJOYS OUTDOOR LIFE.
Stage, Spends Much of Her Time
in the Open Air.

Miss Julia Marlowe's outdoor diver
sions are golf, driving and automobile
ing. She does a prodigious amount of
walking all the year round. Her love
of nature is almost primitive in it's in
tensity. Asked once what was her
greatest ambition, she said it was to
"lead such a normal life that can get
up every morning in time to see the
sun rise" Often she will dismiss her
carriage and revel in facing wind and
weather on foot. An acquaintance &C
companied her from her hotel to the
theater one March hight in the teeth
of driving storm. The sidewalk was
Williston graphic. (Williston, Williams County, N.D.) 1895-1919, 1903-07-30

like the bed of a mountain stream,
and the winds made umbrellas a sar-
casm. She enjoyed every step of the
walk and reached the theater in gale
of laughter and high spirits. 1t is this
abundant vitality, this capacity for
getting fun out of things which annoy
or bore most people that give COM
pelling charm to her art, and a rare,
sweet vivacity to her personality.
For time Miss Marlowe had house
of her own in New York city, but this
she has now given up. Her only home
is her country place in the western part
of the Catskill mountains. This she
called "Highmount," and from the
windows of the house there is glori-
Gus view of dozen mountain peaks.
The house is a large one of colonial
architecture, part Of which, the brick
terrace, the theater-going public saw
reproduced on the stage without know
ing the fact, for the first tentative re-
hearsal of "When Knighthood Was in
Flower" was given on the brick terrace

entrances that the architecture of it
was copied in the reproduction of a
Tudor brick terrace which forms a
part of the stage setting in the first
act Of the play.
Her estate consists of 400 acres, and
only the smaller part of her large es-
tate is laid out in lawn, garden and
driveways. That portion of her pos
sessions which she has with admirable
taste allowed to remain wholly "unim-
proved" is by far the greater part of
the estate. Still in its original wild
ness, it is criscrossed by mountain
streams, cleft by deep ravines, and
overgrown with network of vines
and forest trees that have never known
the woodman's AK. Here the happiest
hours of Julia Marlowe's life are spent,
and thither she goes Immediately her
professional work ends for the season,
which is usually toward the end of
May, and there she remains until the
end of September.

lar appropriateness, since Harriet
Lane johnson is, with the single ex.
ception of Dolly Madison, the only
woman who, while serving as first
lady of the land, entertained any.
thing like as extensively as Mrs.
Roosevelt.
While there are many points OF
similarity between the social methods
of Harriet Lane Johnston and Mrs
Roosevelt, both having delighted to
entertain at the white house the mas.
tiers of achievement in the worlds OF
politics, art, literature and science:
as well as their own personal friends,
the conditions under which these two
women have served as hostess at the
executive mansion could not well be
more divergent. Throughout the en-
tire Buchanan administrati ton feel
ing ran high, owing to the gathering
of the storm which later broke in the
civil war, and it was only by her
possession of a magnificent personal
ity, combined with rare grace and
tact, that Mrs. Johnston was enabled
to keep the social atmosphere Of the
white house free from those clashes
of sentiment which pervaded every
branch of public life.
The particularly notable event of
Harriet Lanes regime in the white
house was, of course, the visit of the
then prince of Wales. now King Ed
ward, of England. The British royal
family has never ceased to seek
means to manifest it's aprecia ton of
the kindness which Miss Lane showed
to her royal guest, and upon the oc-
casion of her visit to England during
later years she has been made the
recipient of every social attention.
Particularly was this the case last
year, when she was one of the spe-
cially honored guests at the corona
ton. The queenly young mistress of
the white house quite captivated the
prince of Wales not less by the elab-
crate dinners and receptions which
she gave in his honor at the execu-
tive mansion than by the charming
comradarie spirit which she mani
tested when she danced with him on
the deck of the United States steam
er Harriet Lane, returning from a
visit to Mount Vernon, and the teas
ing which she administered when
later she ANONYMOUSLY defeated the
prince in a bowling contest.
Of late years Harriet Lane John
ston, who suffered a double bereave-
ment in the early death of her hus-
band and son, has lived in quaint
old house in the fashionable section
Ct Washington. The house is filed
with interesting art object and SOU
venirs, among which are the hand
some engravings which were sent to
Harriet Lane by the prince of Wales
after his return to England. These
pictures were the cause of some con-
troversy when Miss Lane, at the con-
clusion of her uncle's administration,
removed them from the white house.
A portion of the public and a number
of newspapers declared that they had
been sent as gift to the American
nation and should remain in the pres
idential mansion, but. the British gov
eminent fastened to send letter ex-
planning that they had been designed
as personal gift to Miss Lane. Mrs.
Johnston's household at the present
time consists of only herself and her
niece, Miss Kennedy.-Waldon Faw-
cett in ST.. Louis Globe-DemOcrat.

ARMY SERVICE NOT EASY.
Only Those Endowed with Energy
and Pluck Can Hope to Reach
Places of Honor.

Those young men who entered the
military service from civil life follow
ing the war with Spain, believing that
a commission in the army was a
"soft snap" are discovering that a
mistake was made and that in order
to remain in the service and go for
ward in regular promotion they
must prove themselves to be worthy
of advancement, says Washington
report. The law requires that before
being advanced to a grade above that
held the officer must pass a profess
sional and physical examination and
demonstrate his fitness for advance
ment. Failing either physically or
professionally, the officer is "condi-
toned for one year, when he is
again sent before an examining
board, and, in case of second fail
ure, he is honorably discharged from
the army with one years pay. In
case, however, of physical disability
resulting from the service, the candi
date is advanced to the higher grade
and placed on the retired list.
Several of the young men appoint
ed to the grade of second lieutenant
under the army reorganization act
have failed to pass examination for
promotion to first lieutenant and
have been honorably discharged in
accordance with the requirements of
the law. In some % the failures the
cause was found in the lack of mental
preparations for the duties to be per-
formed, and in others the failures
were attribute BILE to the Indifference
and Incidence of the delinquents, who
seemed to entertain the belief that
the same influences that were poten-
tial in securing their original ap-
pointment would be able to retain
them in the army regardless of pro-
fessional delinquencies.
Recently at Fort Leavenworth sew
eral student officers who failed to
meet the requirements of the school
examination were ordered before a
court-martial evidently for exhibiting
deliberate carelessness to prescribed
studies and Indifference to duties in
the classroom in the school of prac-
teal application. These happenings
indicate that the war department
authorities are determined that the
younger officers of the army must
work to win their promotion in time
of peace in order that they may be
the better prepared to Twin their
spurs" in time of war.

SANTA FEES NEW SCHEME.
Supply Car Delivers Stationery In.
stead of Express Car.

Santa Fe special supply car No. was
in Wichita last evening and left 600 pounds
of stationery, etc, for the freight and
passenger Offices of the company
The supply car system of delivering
stationery necessities to the different
agents along the route, is something new.
Heretofore the stuff was all sent by ex-
press. That, of course. made it impera-
tive that the stationery be wrapped. There
was the trouble of carting it to the ex-
press offices from the starting point and
to the railroad offices at its destination.
The supply car is drawn along the side
of the freight depot in each city where
a requisition has been made for stationery
and the stuff is unloaded. The inside Of
the car looks exactly like that of a book
store Many thousands of pounds of pa
per are taken aboard at the commence
ment of each trip. There is one supply
car to each division of the railroad COM
pany. The Santa Fe figures that Il viii
