upon as natural result OF the heavy stock
speculation during the week The Increase
IN deposits Of nearly Sii SOL 800, being con-
siderably less than the sum OF the Increases
In loans and cash. made an unsatisfactory

Mars Peepled BY Farmers.

Mars is inhabited" The fact Is
proved, according 10 Prof. Robert W
Prentiss Of Rutgers College by the
straight lines on the surface of the
planet. which, he says are fortified
areas OF land instead of huge canals.
as heretofore believed by astronomers.
These views, which are the results Of
his scientific researches, he set forth
recently In a stereoptic0n lecture held
under the auspices Of the board Of ed.
ucation at Filty.ninth street and Park
avenue.
He said that nearly the entire sur
face of the planet Mars was desert
land. and that through the wastes
were many straight lines, which he
believed were strips OF land, cultivated
by intelligent people.-New York

NERVE SAVED STEVE sRoDlE.
Charley Mitchell Thought Better Of
Intended chastisement.

The presence In New York OF Mitch
ell, once boxing champion OF England
recalls an incident in the strenuous
career OF the late steve Brodie,
who jumped from the Brooklyn bridge
nearly score Of years ago to glory
prosperity and hlstrionic fame. Brodle
visited London in the early nineues'
where Mitchell, playing the part OF
cicerone one night. introduced the
Bowery boy at the Spooferles club a
resort for prize fighters, horse jociles'
and their kind, where the festivities
are seldom concluded before daylight
and the police have more than once
been called upon to restrain merri'
ment.
In the course of a general converse
ton the English fighter happened to
make some adverse comment upon the
then mighty John l.. Sullivan, which
called forth a sarcastic remark from
Brodie with reference to Mitchells
abilities as a Splinter while In the ring
with the American champion.
With an oath the Engllshman gave
thu smaller man a push that sent him
reeling ten feet backward and then
rushed upon him to administer correc'
ton for the others temerity Brodie
was due for fearful bruising, but the
Bowery boy was equal to the occasion.
He was erect on his feet with pistol
In his hand when the prize fighter
reached him. Putting the weapon I'M
der the others nose, he remarked
calmly:
you t'lnk you're goin' to make a
reputation off lickin Steve Brodie,
don't yer? Well. you just hit me once
and therell be a lot in the papers
about II. but you won't read It,"
Fully approaching the inutility Of
post'mortem notoriety, Mitchell ex'
planned that he was only joking, and
the incident was closed.-New York

In the early sixties It was usually the
duty Of practicing physician 10 ride

SIMPLE WALL DECORATIONS.
New Material and New Ideas for the
Decoration Of Homes.

Decoration Of Homes.
The styles Of home decorations have
completely changed in the last few
years, and II Is pleasant to say that
they have changed for the better.
Time was when we hung monstrous
patterns printed on paper against our
walls. and considered them more or
less pleasantly. II would hardly be fair
TO say that We considered them beau.
tiful or artistic. But they were the
vogue and were put on. The time
has come when. with our better meth.
DDS for interior decoration, better ef.
fects can be secured.
In wall coverings. whether they be
II paint, or OF kalsomine, or OF Ala.
bastine-whateve the material used
to cover the wall-the thing desired Is
that which has the greatest covering
power, as well as permanency and
beauty OF color. Alabastine, a wall
covering ground from Alabaster rock
which means hard white rocks
the ideal covering for a wall.
The most beautiful wall decorations
In the world are those which are laid
On Win tue uluaus ut mural utbikus
in our large public buildings, and the
frescoed designs In the large cathe.
drals and churches. have a perma.
nency and an art Of which wall paper
is but a cheap imitation. These mural
schemes and frescoed designs can be
brought within the reach Of the every
day home. They can be done with
Alabastlne, which is permanent In its
coloring. It does not rub OF, and II
has the soft effect of pastelle.
A great many people defer the re-
decorating OF their rooms not only
because OF the expense but because
OF the discomfort Of II. With Alabas,
tine there need be no discomfort and
there can be no muss. for all that is
needed Is to lay sheet or canvas on
the floor. have your man come In with
a pail, make the solution and simply
brush II on the wall. That is all there
is to II, and the room is perfectly
clean and thoroughly renovated.
