ErceSs of Gold Imports.

Two facts Immediately impress the
student of the fiscal years showing OF
gold exports and impOrts-the magni-
tude of the total movement, and the
fact that, despite the unprecedented
10000, 900 lump-sum remittance TO
France, gold imports exceeded exports
AS for the first point gold exports and
imports combined foot up S1SO,567,OOO
for the twelvemonth past. whereas
1903 gave only S94.O72, 600, and the
highest previous record was $145,934.-
Oe0. in the fiscal year 1895. That
period, too, was a time Of gold ship
ments under special contract, the Bel
mont-MOrgan syndicate having under
taken to deliver S65,OOO,000 gold TO
the Treasury. "one-half Of which shall
be obtained in and shipped from
Europe"
The equally striking fact is. that de-
spite the $4,000, 900 gold shipment OF
April and May 70 Paris. and the S21.-
100000 earlier expectations, imports
for the twelvemonth exceeded exports.
This rather remarkable result was
brought about: During that period.
Japan has sent us something like SS5,-
100000 gold, largely in transit. From
the KlOndike we have drawn $50, ,OOO,-
600. from Mexico $1O,OOO,0OO and
from Australia $7.OOO.OOO; these were
new gold supplies. But even these
large receipts would not have counter
balanced the heavy exports, but for
s22. coo. 600 gold wrenched fOrcibly from
Lcndon last November and December.

the English market pay cash for its
heavy purchases of high-priced cotton

Conscience.

a passenger on a Guerrero street car
recently had an opportunity to study,
unobserved, the struggle between con-
science and cupidity in a little ten
year-old girl. The conductor failed to
collect her fare Immediately after she
entered the car. She had the required
nickel in her hand and she watched
him furtively for a time to note
whether he would overlook her en-
tirely.
She was apparently in a quandary
what to do and then conscience COM
menced to perform its subtle functions.
Several times she held out her hand in
a hesitating manner. Meanwhile the
nickel was carefully concealed between
her fingers from the view of the con-
ductOr. After making this abOrtive
pretense of paying several times con-
science was triumphant and the next
time the conductor passed she held out
the fare boldly and there was no mis-
taking her intention.
There was satisfied look on her
chubby face when the fare was reg
isteTed. but it is doubtful if she real
lied how great a victory she had won
and what an influence that simple in
cident might have in shaping her char

these boats, their capacity, their infiu-
ence on the construction of larger ships
and their bearing on naval policy gem
orally and the tactical and strategical
problems of war afloat.
It is unnecessary to recapitulate the
achievements of several Of the French
boats, s they have been publicly re-
ported rom time to time. They not
only iilicate that these little vessels
have a practical value. but that the
requisite nerve for their employment is
possessed in a high degree by the
French officers who have been placed
in charge of them. Interesting tests
were also r--ade in February last by
two submarines, or, more accurately.
submersibles. 1t was arranged that
they should make an attack on two
French liners in the vicinity of the
port, the Espadon looking out for the
Bretagne on its way from Havre to
New York and the Silure tackling the
Champagne on her voyage from the
United States. The former managed TO
come within 200 yards of the Bretagne
without being observed by the men on
board who were directed to keep a
sharp lookout, and the Silure put in an
appearance, also unobserved, until her
officer hailed the lookout men on COM
ing to the surface, right between the
two liners when they were within sig
mailing distance of each other and the
presumption is that she could have at
tackled both without being seen.
Whatever may be sSid against the
submarines, the French people accept
the evidence Of the repeated trials as a
complete vindication of the large eX-
penditure which has already been
sanctioned on the submarines, fifty
eiC.-t in ALL which are built, building or
projected. In the activity Of tn Brit
ish Admiralty may be seen further evil
dence that, in the opinion Of the Eng
lish authorities, the submarine has
come and that it behooves them TO
hasten TO catch up with their near
rivals. The unfortunate fact in the
situation from the British point of view
is that British supremacy is based on
a superiority of large ships battleships
and cruisers, which these small ships
are intended to attack, and science has
not yet evolved any effective defense
against the most insidiOus weapon ever
fashioned by the hand of man. The
British authorities are concentrating
their efforts on the development of the
submarine torpedo-boat. They believe
that the large type now building is a
powerful addition to the defensive
weapons Of the fleet, able to cruise
alone in the open sea or to accompany
a fighting force. On both sides of the
English Channel these menacing craft
are already being marshaled in large
numbers, and it can no longer be de-
MED that the submarine has come to
stay-Archibald S. Hurd, in Forum.

Natural Filings.

Here is a story from London that
rivals the yarn about precious metal
in chickens crops:
IAN East End doctor has made a
remarkable discovery. A few days
ago he was in the house of a friend at
Bethnal Green when he picked up the
jawbone of a sheep, noticing a dull
CLEAN of a bronze color on the teeth.
Why, that looks like gold he said.
after examining the teeth closely. The
doctor removed the teeth, took them
TO his surgery and tested the deposit
or coating on the teeth with aquafor-
tbs. That gave the result as pure gold.
Next the teeth were taken to a jewell
er. who scraped off the metal and
submitted IL TO all tests known. The
substance was then guaranteed to be
pure, fine gold.
"Other Sleeps heads were pur-
chased at random from Bethnal
Green purveyors and some of them
exhibited traces of gold deposit on
the teeth in just the same way. They
had ali arrived from the Antipodes.
English and Scotch Sleeps heads
were obtained, but there was no trace
of any auriferous deposit. The in
ference is that somewhere on the vast
grazing plains Of Australia or New
Zealand farmers are feeding their
fiocks of sheep on pasture so aurifer-
Gus that the very animals show traces
of the outcrop of gold in their teeth"

TT HROUGH the many expressions of President
Roosevelt hearty of appreciation for
the homey and simple features of life as found in
the country and the farm He said to the rugged
pie of Maine in 1902: "The the farm more than

individual energy and resourcefulness He works hard

which may not be pleasant but his life is passed in
healthy surroundings, which tend develop fine type
of citizenship In the country, moreover the conditions
are such to allow closer touch between man and
man than too often find the case in the city Men
feel vivdly the underlying of brotherhood
and community of interest"
And again: "The who tils his own farm whether

exists nearly under the conditions which obtained
when the embattled farmers of 1916 made this country

country like is fundamentally true that the we'll
