THE NUMBER OF ANARCHISTS INCREASING

Considerable alarm is felt in official circles
over the rapidly increasing number of anarchists
that are finding their way to the United States.
The immigration authorities are of the opinion
that unless something is done by treaty or other
wise, the United States will soon be overrun by
this undesirable class In the naturalization law
recently passed, there is a restriction on giving
citizenship to anarchists and regulations now
being formulated to make this effective. That
however, does not prevent anarchists coming to
this country and preaching their doctrine. 1t is
a comparatively easy thing for this disordery
element to obtain admission to this country, and
congress will be asked to consider more drastic
regulations regarding them

Gossip from the Capital
Interesting Chatter Of Men and Events at Washmgton-Secretary
Roots Tour of South American Countries Houseclean'
ing at the White Householder Things.

WASHINGTON.-Th reception accorded Sec
rotary of State Root at the Pan-American con-
gress at Rio Janero and the cordially exhibited
wherever he has landed in South America are
regarded as omens of success for his unprece'
dented tour Never before has the premier OF
this government undertaken a similar mission,
and it is unusual for such high official of one
government personally to visit the capitals OF
other governments and by plain, frank inter-
course endeavor to establish firmer relations be-
tween great powers. Mr.. Root has as the object
of his South American tour the correction OF an
erroneous idea and prejudice that exists there
against the United States.
The people of this country are virtually I'M
known in South America. The United States has
no steamship connection with that section to
speak of and our trade cannot compare with that

Somehow, instinctively, he felt the

"Yes?"
Yes; the waves are so prettily

Then he led her to the beer garden.
She blew off the foam and he paid the

Animals That Are Always Enenies.
Many animals are born with an in
hsrent antipathy for other animals.
The excessive fear shown by young
rabbits which for the irst time smell q
ferret and Of young turkeys which
hear the shriIl cry Of a hawk they
have never heard or seen before. are
proved examples Of the strength Of
these instructive antipathies. But the
case Of the weasel and rat 10. perhaps,
more to be noticed because Of the great
or equality Of the antagonists. The
fend is SO bitter that meeting be-
tween them almost certainly means
death to one or both. Friendships are
not uncommon between the cat and
dog and have been known between a
dog and wolf, but the mutual attitude
Of the weasel and rat is invariably war
war that is waged to the death.

The Word "Nugget."

Nugget was formerly used to sig
Nifty a bit or lump Of anything, as a
nugget Of tobacco" Nowadays. how
ever, 1t is used principally Of gold as it
comes from the mine. This use is Aus
tralian. Governor Sir William Deni-
son Of Australia wrote in 1852, In
many instances the gold is brought to
market in Jumps or nuggets, as they
are called" In Queensland there is
a peculiar use Of the word unknown In
the rest of Australia. There, when a
man appropriates unbranded calves, he
ia said to be 'nuggeting"

The secret of success in society Is a

man who is not happy In company can
not lind any word In his memory that

who Is happy there finds In every turn

THE GOLD STANDARD.

The first nation to adopt the gold
standard was England. She adopted
the gold standard nominally In 1915
but practically not until three years
later, for in 1916 England was on the
paper basis. Germany, which adopted
the single silver standard in 1851. took
steps toward the establishment of the
gold standard in 1871, but II was moi,
until July, 1878, that she demonetized
silver, undertook TO melt down her sill
yer coin, sell II for gold and establish
the single gold standard. The Scandi
navIan nations adopted the single gold
standard at the same time. In Septem.
Der, 1873, France restricted the free
coinage Of silver and three years later
entirely suspended such coinage, bui

silver coin she has In use or to treat II
otherwise than as on an equality with
