To "PounG Words.

When the r~eputability of punning is
under discussion it is we'll to zeal in
mind that the very name of the lest
confesses to 4 degree of atrocity. To
pun" according to the London Chron-
lcle, is to pound" words, to beat them
into forced conditions, SO the philolo-
slsts believe. He would pun thee into
shlYers with his fist" says Thersites
III "Iroilus and Cressida,'' meaning
physical pounding" Pun is not a
slipshod development of pound" but
its original form, the Anglo-Saxon verb
being 'punian," and pun" or ''poun"
having developed a final 3D." lust as

Curlously enough, pun and pound"

Railroad and TIn-Horn Politics.

(Emporia, Kan, Gazette, Rep.)
Right now the railroads of Kansas
are using the tinhorn politicians of
Kansas to play their game. Right
now the people are getting the worst
of it, and plan is being formed in
New York city to name Charles Curtis
as the railroad senator from Kansas.
1t is shame that the people Of Kan
sas, who are free people, should al
low the tinhorns of politics to sell
them out, to run a skin game on the
state, and to beat it out of its just
and honest representation in con-
gress. Tinhorn politics is going too
far. 1t is time for the people to take
charge of their outfits, and run the
games themselves for while.

MONEY.
Millions in Banks Whose Owners Have
Never Claimed.

New York Cor Kansas City Starr
1t has been variously estimated that
in banks and trust companies of this
city there is from 5000, 900 to as many
million dollars worth of dead" or un-
claimed accounts. In most cases these
sums originate from small balances
left by depositors who have withdrawn
their accounts and have neglected to
come around for the odd sums which
remain after their main account has
been taken out. Very often deposits
are made by persons, who having
lodged their nest egg in safety, never
return again to the nest, and, in case
there is no will, their heirs never
know of the existence of the money SO
deposited.
Some time ago the state endeavored
to take these sums from the banks
and keep them as Government trust,
but this action was successfully OPP
posed by the banks in Court, their
credit being judged adequate security
for the trust. Now, no banks con-
tinue to pay interest upon accounts
unless the owner appears and has his
deposit vouchers renewed at least once
every Is years.
In New York City there is a man
familiar to bank officials whose sole
business is looking up heirs for these
sums He first ascertains,
by one way or another, what sums are
lying dead" and have been so lying
for a number of years, and under
what circumstances they were origi-
nally deposited. Then, by menas
known only to himself he finds the
lawful heirs, who gladly give a large
commission for the money so unex-
pectedly falling to him.
In England there is no legal provis

she left the officer after receiving back
her voucher, when a young woman ap
peared and declared proundly that she
was niece of the advertised spinster
whom she called to represent, honestly
believing her to be dead. What do
you want to know" inquired the Of
fetal. "Oh, how much my aunt has
left mel" was the reply. 81 can't very
well tell you that" replied the banker,
but you can find out by asking your
aunt herself at No. - street" The
heir, needless to say, retired in some
confusion.
1t will hardly be credited, but there
are depositors who, having lost their
receipts, really believe they have for
feited all right totheir own money
This class of unclaimed deposits u.s. Of
course, small, but it is nevertheless
true that some, after losing their de-
post voucher, become indifferent after

lost to them.
Some save up for a rainy day"
which either never comes, or when it
does, is not wet enough to require an
inroad into the deposit, which lies I'm.

move away from the locality where

ion for unclaimed bank accounts as
there is in this country and in France
where the law requires that every five
years all banking institutions publish
the names and last known addresses
of owners of dormant or unclaimed
accounts. 1t has been estimated that
in chancery, the Bank of England and
the thousands Of private English bank
ing houses there is total sum of over
$12 100000 unclaimed.
The thought of so much wealth ly-
ing unused, unowned, unsought for,
has driven many weak-minded persons
into insanity and given bank officials
many painful moments. An old man,
for instance, kept calling for many
years at well-known banking estab-
lishment, asking to be paid certain
monies which he declared had been
left to him. OF course, it was all a
delusion, but he would never believe
so, and after each denial would retire,
consoling himself with the imagina-
tion that as the interest was COM
pounded his money was every day in
creasing.
There are several well recognized
reasons why money often falls under
the category Of the great unclaimed
the commonest one being, strange as
it may seem, that the owner or de-
pOsitor has forgotten about it. 1t
would seem thatdollars and cents
would be one of the last things in the
world that a person would forget, yet
in the 5000 or 5000 banks in Great
Britain today there are not a few de-
positors whose accounts lie unclaimed
from this cause alone.
Not long ago an old and apparently
penniless woman, who had become in
capable by reason of age and infirmity,
to care for herself, was received at a
poorhouse. In removing her wretched
garments for new and clean ones it
was found that crumpled paper was
sewn into the lining. Investigation
revealed bank deposit receipt for
6 100, or about $500 In the name of the
new inmate, which dated rs years
The poor woman declared
she remembered nothing about it, and,
IN fact, almost disowned it.
Another good reason that monies lie
unclaimed is that the owner dies, the
receipt is lost and the existence of
he deposit is unknown to the next of |
kin.
An amusing incident in this connec-
ion was told by a public bank officer,
who had been in the habit of adver-
Using from time to time for lapsed
iepositors having considerable sums
% their credit. One of these, an aged |
'pinster, was thought to be dead, but |
/ few days after the advertisement ap-
)eared, she walked into the bank and !
her receipt. Hardly had

BOTH SIDES
CONFIDENT
MEsSRs. ARMSTEAD AND BRAN
DON FORECAST SATURDAYS
PRIMARY.

Mr.. George H. Armstead, campaign
manager for Senator Carmack, and
Gen. W. NJ. Brandon, campaign mana
ger for Ex-Governor Taylor, both gave
out statements for the first time Mon
day night on the outlook for Satur-
days primary, and both expressed
confidence in the success of their re-
spective candidates.
Mr.. Armstead's forecast Of the vote
is as follows:
I'VE anticipate heavy vote. Wealth
er conditions, however, will material
ly effect this. I look to see the total
vote close to 100000. Mr.. Carmack
will carry not less than fifty-seyen
counties. He will get not less than
$4,000 votes. His majority will not
be less than 10000. The exuberant
friends of Gov. Taylor, who have been
making such exaggerated claims in
his behalf, have prepared hard bed
for him to fall upon. This is my pos
tive belief. Nothing can defeat Car
mack except the over-confidence Of
his friends. I urge them not to make
this mistake"
While Gen. Brandon gives out no
figures, he makes the following pro-
phecy:
Il am now ready for the fray, and
from the information which comes to
me from the various organizations in
the various counties in the State, /
have absolutely no doubt Of the re-
suit. It is a question Of how much
Gov. Taylor's majority will be.
81 am perfectly confident that Gov.
Taylor's old-time friends in East Ten
nessee will send across the mountains
a handsome majority for him. That
majority will be increased in Middle
and Notwithstanding the
fact that in Shelby county Gov. Tay-
lor was not given fair and equal rep
resentation among the election officers
in that county he will carry ma
jority of the votes cast in West Ten
nessee."

Impressive Funeral.
The funeral was held at the First
Presbyterian Church at IL o'clock
and was one of the largest and most
impressive seen in Columbia in years,
and the floral offerings were
numerous. Among them was a
large pail, covering the coffin,
the Offering from the student body.
The young cadet was laid to rest in
his sergeant's uniform, and the silken
flag of the school was draped around
his coffin. Friends and relatives were
present from Lynnville, Lebanon and
Spring Hill, besides the many who at
tended from Columbia and the coun-
ty. Rev. w. A. Provine was assisted
in the impressive ceremonies by Rev.
w. B. Capers and DR.. T. A. Wharton.
The music was beautiful and touch
ing.
After the ceremony, the funeral pro-
cession, under military escort wound
its way to Rose Hill, where all that
was mortal was laid to rest beside
the little sister who died some years
since. The interment was with full
military honors, and came to close
when the cadets lined up on either
side of the grave and fired parting
salute in memory Of their comrade.
