and also of the souvenir booklets which
we're made under the supervision of
James Drummond, which contained
photographs of the pastor, of the church,
and also OF the boys club together with
their autographs. The boys cleared $25

RAISE DISCOUNT RATE.
Bank Of England Reaches Point Of Six
teen Years AGO.


London. Oct. 19.-The Bank of En-
gland today raised its discount rate to
6 per cent Not since Nov. Z, 1890,
just before the Barring brothers failure
has the rate been put to 6 per cent.
The relapse in American exchange, in
dicating renewal of demands for gold
and the probability of large withdraw
ais of metal for Egypt seemed to have
contributed to the action taken.
At the Bank of England this after
noon the Associated Press was inform
is due to the follwing causes:
To the withdrawal of nearly five mil
lion dollars in gold for Egypt.
To the fall in sterling exchange in
New York.
To information of impending with.
drawals of gold which it was hoped
could be avoided by the present drastic
actions.
It is also stated that the decision to
raise the rate was not influenced by
any anxiety regarding the financial
situation in London.
New York. Oct. 19.-In connection
count of the Bank of England there
was good deal Of speculation in Wall
street, and during the early hours
manv discuieting rumors were set
afoaE. Inquiry among the banks doing
a heavy foreign business put these rll-
mors effectually at rest the general
opinion being that there is no occasion
for alarm.

NURSES ARE poll oNED.
Strange Illness Comes Over People IN
Hospital.

Des Moines, Oct 19-Authorities
are investigating the mysterious arsen-
ic poisoning of Drs. Tom Burcham and
Lace, internes of the Methodist hospi-
tai, Miss e. E. Pearson, the superin-
tendent, and about thirty nurses Of
that institution who are recovering
from strange sickness
Tuesday noon. after completing their
midday meal, the victims were taken
critically ill and were confined to their
beds for several hours. Because Of
the prompt medical attention given
them they are recovering from the ef-
fects of the poisoning.
Miss Pearson, the superintendent,
while reticent about the strange case
said: "The affair has been reported
to the proper authorities and chemi-
cal analysis is being made of the food
believed by us to have contained the
poison"

LIFE INSURANCE UP AGAIN.
Second Attempt Is Made at Newton to
Collect on Policy.


Newton, Oct. 19-The case OF Fred
Kiisel and Eugene Bean. executor of
the estate of Mary o. Kiisel vs.. the
Mutual Reserve Fund Insurance COM
pany Of New York was tried and sub
mitted to Judge Scott today. This is
the second time the case has been
tried here. Two years ago yesterday it
was tried and Judge Preston directed
a verdict for the defendant company
from which plaintiff appealed and the
supreme court reversed the case. This
time, by agreement of parties, 1t was
tried to the court and will be decided
next Saturday mornig.
The controversy is over policy OF
life insurance on Henry A. Kiisel. The
insured paid his quarterly premium on
his $1,000 policy Jan. 1, 1902, but fail
ed to pay the one due April 1. He
died May of the same year.
The company claims that the policy
lapsed on account of nonpayment of
premium. But the plaintiffs claim
that owing to an excessive rate
that was charged for the last five pre-
miums that the company had enough
of his money to pay the premium then
due and that the company got the
plaintiffs to make the proof Of death,
thus waving any forfeiture.
