While the total bank note circulation of the United
States has been increased since the close of the Spanish
war 1888 100000 it should be remembered that there have
been in that same period quite as notable changes in the
banking position. Within that same time the resources
of national banks have increased from $4O00OOO0OO TO
1885,, 100000; the resources of banks other than ma
tlonaI have doubled in those years, advancing from SA-
SOC. 900. 900 to $4,000 100000. Thus the total of all bank
ing resources have practically doubled in these few years,
the increase being from $4,000 0O,000 to 16,950,O0O,0 900.
These are bewildering figures. Such an increase in re
sources has of course meant corresponding increases ID
the requirements for reserves. The cash holdings of ma
tional banks have increased S440,O00,OOO. Cash holdings
of other than national banks have increased Sl3O,OUO,OOO,
a total increase in such reserves of S5IO,OOOOOO.

The Emporia Gazette tells a good story, illustrating
the Importance of patronizing home enterprises. It says
that ten years ago a farmer put his initials on a dollar,
went to town and spent 1t. Before the year was out he
got the dollar back. Four times in six years the dollar
came back to him for produce, and three times he heard
of it in the pockets of his %neighbors. The last time he
got it four years ago, he sent 1t 10 a mail order house
He has not seen that dollar since and never will That
dollar will never pay any more school or road tax for
him; will never build up or brighten the homes of the
community.

The San Francisco Chronicle says that it is stated,
and apparently with truth, that the cost of the "recipro-
city conference" which recently was held in Chicago,
was borne entirely by the beef trust and the harvester
trust, both Of which desire the other American industries
to buy markets for them, which, the Chronicle thinks,
the others viii never do. The harvester trust is thor
oughly hated by all farmers and the beef trust is hated
b Everybody. Both concerns are under Investigation on
well-grounded accusations of extorting secret rebates
from railroad companies, and officials of the beef trust
are under indictment by a federal grand jury.

Street Opening Greatly Needed.

Some Of our citizens living in the
northwestern part OF town are inter.
csling themselves in movement Ia
have street opened from the end Of
DoSs street east TO intrrscct Murphy
avenue, which opens into the 81
Lou, road Immediately opposite the
Norih Ward public school building
Such a street is greatly needed for the
convenience OF school children in that
part of town in order for them To
reach school At present they have
to 20 two OF three times the distance
from their homes to the school house,
aud part Of the way along COLLEGE
avenue that is almost entirely monopo-
lilcd by the electric railway, making
it more or less dangerous for the
smaller children, or else coming down
town To the public square aud thence
to the school house. Il will cost
about $500 10 open the street, most
Of the property holders consuming to
give the right of way. Only about
$50 has been raised 50 far, but the
street is such a necessity that the pco
pie ought to take hold of the matter
in earnest and put it through.

BILL D00LEy CONE AGAIN
He and Emile Seryien Escape From
the Disturbed Ward Of State Hos.
pital No. 4.

Last Wednesday night Bill Dooley,
who killed Bill Harris and was al.
judged insane at the May term of Cir
cult Court and sent to State Hospital
No. 4, and Emile Scrvicn, who killed
n man in st. Louis and was also adj
judged insane, made their escape
from the Disturbed Ward, where they
were confined, and are now at large
We understand that they got out by
picking the lock, but are unable to
furnish further particulars, as the
officials seemed indisposcd to give out
any information.
This is the second time that Scrvicn
has escaped from this hospital, the
first time last December, and was out
six or seven weeks before he was
caught in Texas. DR.. Keith, former
Superintendent of State Hospital No.
4, says that he has never considered
the Disturbed Ward at this institution
very secure building Tor the violent
insane or inmates who were cunningly
planning to escape,

Ellis Cofmgn Discharged.

The preliminary examination in the
ease of the State vs.. Ellis Coffman,
charged with murder in the first de-
gccc for the killing of John W kolb,
was held before George ". Gov
ington, j. r, at Flat River, last
friday. The testimony did not de.
yclop any new facts, but were sub
stantially the same Ms was brought out
10y the Coroncr's inquest. Every fact
concuslycly showed that Coffman was
forced to strike the blow 10 prevent
kolb from killing him with large
butcher knife. From the testimony,
Coiiman evidently intended to Only
knock Kolb down; but the blow was
on very vital point of the head and
resulted in instant death. Kulb' :
wife was the chict witness, tcstifying
that her husband called Conman TO
to him, and stated that he would cut
Coiiman's throat.

BIG RIVER OVERFLOW.
Does Great Damage to Farms and
Crops Along the River Bottom
for Miles.

The heavy rains of the past week
have caused one of the most damaging
ovcrilows OF Big river ever known.
From Il distance of about ten miles
above lrondalc all along the river to
the mouth, where it flows into the
Meramec, are large fields of corn
practically ruined, being swept down
and buried in the mud. Richard Adj
ans, who moved to Pennington
from lrondalc last week, had about
30 acres of corn on what is known rs
tho Randall farm, which gave promise
of yielding from 30 to 100 bushels to
the acre, that was washed down
and completely destroyed. And we
are Informed that all along the bot.
toms of the river many fine fields Of
corn have suffered the same fate, in
some places the farmers being so dis.
couraged that they will make no effort
to save their crops, giving them up as
totally lost Roy and Richard Adams,
who passed along the river for eight
or ten miles, say that they found n
number of cattle, sheep and hogs, and
even quails, that had been drowned
10y the Hood.
