The first glass tumbler used in
England was made for Abbot Bene-
dict in A. D. 600.
1t is estimted that American insects
eat up s7OO, 900, 900 worth of property
annually.
A manuscript of the bible made IN
the ninth century, and the oldest one
in existence, is being exhibited at
the British Museum.
There is religious meaning to the
white cross on the red field of the
Swiss flag. 1t was adopted as an ap-
peal to heaven in 1889, when the
Swiss fought and won one of their
greatest battles.
A number of owners of property ID
the business district of Modesto met
with the city trustees Wednesday
evening to discuss the street improve
ments proposition. No definite act
ion was taken, and no definite decis-
ION reached other than that asphal-
sent, and that macadam will be the
street covering used.
1t developed during the course of
the discussion that eight cents per
square foot is what the maximum
cost will be for the laying of six
inch coat of macadam, making the
cost to man who has frontage OF
one lot, or % feet, $50, approximate
Iy. This. in itself is not so bad, out
where the rub seemed to be was with
the owners who owned property
which fronts two streets-a corner
property. Here is not only two
frontages, square with the face of the
buildings, but the square of the
street intersection, which must be
dealt with. The impression that the
men who owned the four corner fro1
ages would have to pay for paving
this square prevailed, each man to
pave one fourth of the square. In
some cases this square is larger that
the actual frontage of the buildings
on the corners.
The Grand Jury met in San Andreas
this week and received the report Of
W. Cavis, the expert who has. been
at work on the county books for the
past four or five months. The report,
consisting of 1Ol pages, showed the
county was indebted to two county
officers to the amount of about S36.
Expert Cavis also presented his bill,
amounting to Sl472. 80.
He gave the grand jury some good
advice, (aIso included in the above
bill }, as to how improvements could
be made in the conduct of the various
county offices, so that the services
of an expert would not be needed in
the future.
The grand jury also recommen ded
the adoption of some needed sanitary y
and fire protection for the county
hospital, after which they adjourned.

NEW YORK, Jan. 21.-There was a
good deal of commotion and some con-
fusion in the active two hours trading
OF today's stock market, but the i'm
portant changed of the day were con-
fined to a few stocks.
The further buoyant rise in the
northwestern grangers was in connec-
ton with another rise in the Northern
securities stocks on the curb.
The general level of prices, however,
was maintained with difficulty and
gave way entirely on the appearance
OF the bank statement, disclosing an
unexpected loan expansion of $34 474,-
100 This Is far in excess of any pre-
yipus weeks increase in the loan item
during the history of the clearing
house, and it was further notable for
the fact that the increase in loans has
been made by the three or four largest
banks in the clearing house, in which
are usually concentrated the greatest
syndicate operations of the country's
most powerful financial groups. Moth
ing has appeared on the surface to in
dicate into what channel this enormous
extension of credits may be turned.
There have been several large bond
sales during the week, but not suffi-
cfent to account for proportions of the
loan expansion. Some part of the re-
sources thus expended may have gone
for the payment of maturing American
railroad notes and bonds held abroad
and it is known that the 'cheapness of
money here has prompted bankers to
employ funds for the purchase of large
amounts of bonds held by European
investors which are to fall due in a
short time.
But there will be room still for the
supposition that some great project of
corporation finance is in process of be-
ing worked out. Compared with this
weeks great loan increase that for the
week ending January 23 last year
comes nearest to an equal amount,
when the bank loans increased $30,669,-
300.
The only other parallel occurred dur
ing the spring of 1901, preceding the
great flotation era, when for several
weeks the clearing house banks made
increases in the neighborhood of $780,
100000 in their loans.
Today's stock market closed active
and easy.
Total sales of bonds, par value,
$$5, $3.50, 900.

SAYS RUSSIA
MUST CONQUER
CAPT. ARCHIBALD FORECASTS
OUTCOME OF WAR
Believes That Cars Mighty Force
Will crush Japanese Be-
fore Peace Is
Declared

Capt. j. r. Archibald from lecture
platform is Capt. Archibald out Of his
proper sphere, and he leaves his aud
ience merely interested; but Capt.
Archibald across friendly breakfast
table, full of colorful and picturesque
campaign anecdote and detail, makes
the listener see the color and sunshine
and blood and daring of all he has lived
through in the last year without the
aid of photographs, however cleverly
caught.
1t is a concentrated face lit and
eager with the eagerness of youth
and youths ability to see pic
turesqueness and "story"-detail in
sordid, brutal reality; but there is an
understrata of hard common sense that
has made firm a mouth that smiles
easily.
Capt. Archibald has perhaps seen
more of the smoke and glory and CRIME
of foreign battle than any other Ameri-
can war correspondent, his friend,
Richard Harding Davis not excepted.
In America, as a STRIPPING, he saw
active service in the Indian wars. He
went as a war correspondent for such
English publications as Black and
White and the Graphic through such
colorful campaigns as the Chinese-Jap-
anse, the Graeco-Turkish, the Nicara-
qua Honduras. In 1899 he was with
the British forces in the Soudan and
with the Boer army during the South
African war. He went through the
Spanish war, was in fact the
first American wounded, fact mem
toned in the distinguished service
order of the war department of 1900.
He will not tell you any Of these
things. You have to hunt down his
career yourself, and it is a career
strewn with picturesque medals and
honors.
For instance, the Chinese government
made him a mandarin. He admits this
with some discomfort.
