HISTORY SOCIETY
IS SUGGESTED.

If the wishes of the Board of Regents
of the University of California are car
rfed out an Academy of Pacific Coast
History will soon be formed to direct
the affairs of the famous Bancroft Lii
brary located in California Hall, Ber-
kelley, and under the Jurisdiction of
the university regents. The regents
are of the opinion that a special body
should have charge of the great COL
lection, as the work is too much for
the board
The matter was taken up and thor
oughly discussed yesterday afternoon
at the regents meeting. The regents
agreed that the library was much more
than the name implies and suggested
that it be recognized as an academy
and put upon the same footing as the
museums connected with the famous
educational institutions of Europe.
According to the ideas of the regents
the men who are appointed to control
the Academy of Pacific Coast History
should be qualified to take UP the work
and be willing to subscribe a certain
sum, approximately about $500 a wear
each, toward the maintenance of the
academy. President Wheeler is sug-
gested as an ex-officio member of the
society.
This body should be notified to turn
In an annual report to the Board of Re-
gents of the university, 1t is suggested.
IT was said that the Bureau of Histori-
cal Research at Washington would fur
nish the funds for printing calendars
and manuscripts of the academy.
The regents also favor the appoint
ment of a trained curator and q staff
oI assistants to look out for the prac-
tical anairs of the academy. This
would require an outlay OF about s1O.-
a y
that the university fund should he -hur.
dened with this expense, but think th@
members of the proposed history So
ciety should make 1t up

THE KNUCKLE CALENDAR.
Hard to Tell Which are the Sho1

Hard to Tell Which are the Short
 Months if You Forget the Jingle. We can't always remember which are the short months of the year or some of us can't anyway, and then,;' said man who is not very strong in memory, i've take to repeating the old Jingle, Thirty days hath Septem- Der, April, June and November and so on to bring the short months to us. But l have just learned another way that pleases me.
 If you double up your fist and hold It with the back of the hand upward you will see the four knuckles of the hand standing up in little prominepces with little Impressions between the bases of the fingers.
 Now, if you will start ticking off the months on these prominences and depressions, one for each prominence and one for each depression in regu- lar order, you will find the long months all come on the high places and the short months all in the low ones.
 First knuckle, high place, January; first depression, low place, February; next knuckle, March; next depression, April; next knuckle, May; next low place, June; and then the fourth and last knuckle, July. Then you come back to the first knuckle and start over again; high place, August, and first depression, September; next knuckle, October: next depression, November, and the next knuckle De- cember.
 ''If you should forget even the thirty, days, jingle count the months off on the back of your doubled up hand in this way and you can't go astray: you will find the short months all coming in the little valleys between the knuckles. Mountain and Valley the young folks call this"

TRADE CONDITIONS.
R. c. Dun q Co.'S Weekly Review Q
 Business.

4 I 3R. c. Dun ( Co.'S Weekly Review of
 Busincss.
 NEW YORK, March 3.-R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade says:
 Prospects are most encouraging for continued activity in the commercial world. Seasonable merchandise is go- ing into consumption more freely, and preparations for large. spring trade keep shipping departments busy. Mer- cantile collections are still somewhat ir- regular, although satisfactory on the whole, especially in view of the firm money market. Manufacturing plants report little idle machinery except at northwestern four mills, where the heavy output has exceeded demands for time.
 Probably the best news of the week was the prompt response to President Roosevelts pacific letter to the contest ing coal interests. A meeting has been arranged for March 19, at which it is believed concessions will be made on both sides.
 Commercial failures in February were only 96S in number against l,O13 last year, but liabilities increased from $9, 7s0.370 to $10,S59.619 owing to few large brokerage defaults. Trading losses were almost $2,OOO, ,0OO less than in 1905, while small increase occurred in manufacturing liabilities.
