THE WORLDS BANKER.
How French Thrift is Making Itself
Felt in the Money Market

From the Review of Reviews
France is now playing the role Of the
worlds banker: England lost her claim to
the title when she went to war In South
Africa. A. generation ago one had to go to
London to feel the pulse of the interna-
tional money market. Today one makes a
better diagnosis In Paris.
The strides toward financial supremacy
which France Is making have been most
rapid In the past five years. In that time
French investors have taken up many mil
Hard francs of foreign obligations. They
furnished Great Britain with much OF the
capital that went to finance the Boer war:
they loaned enormous amounts to Russia,
practically supplying the money needed In
the struggle against Japan: they provided
Germany with 100000 900 marks in 1901
05 to carry on her tremendous industrial
enterprises; they took liberal amount of
the last Japanese loan, more than half OF
the Russian loan OF last April, and. finally.
they supplied borrowers In the United
States with fully $500 600 during the
tight money period OF last winter and arr

Palestine Becoming Jewish Again.

FROM the Christian Advocate.
The Rev. w. NJ. Christie Of Alenpo. whose

tied here thirty-five years ago can no long
er compete with the Jews. Jerusalem Is
once more Jewish city, containing more
lsraeiites than returned from captivity in
the days of Ezra and Nehemiah. 1t Is said
that the great fields of white rock which
give the land such barren aspect have
become the hope of Israel. Its fiinty sur
face being once broken, the porous rock
below gives a hold and sustenance to the
roots OF trees, olives, vines. etc, and ag-

common speech they are forced back upon
that OF their fathers and of the sacred

Fisherman Hooks a Bluejay.
From the New York Herald.

FUu We" IVkN I1Stdiu :
Judge Arthur Darlington and Recorder
Henry L. Yost of Montciair. N. j., had an
unusual experience while fishing in Pine
Brook yesterday afternoon. In an extra
effort to throw the line far into the stream
the recorder threw 1t high in the air. with
the result that the hooks, sinkers and line
became lodged in a tree thirty-ffve feet
high. The fishermen got a boy to climb the
tree and release the fishing tackle When
the lad reached the limb on which the
line WAS entangled he shouted why,
you've caught flying fish, and descended
with his prize. which was fast to the
hook.
An examination showed that instead OF a
flying fish the recorder had hooked blue
the tree where the hook and tackle de-
scended. The bird will be mounted and
placed among the recorders collection OF
birds and insects.

Favor Inspection Before Marriage.

CHICAGO, Oct. 30.-Wedding bells
will ring only for those happy young
people who succeed in passing a state
inspection test, if the ideas OF the
American Stock Breeders associa-
ton are carried out. The association
has turned for the moment from the
consideration Of cattle, sheep and

will be the ultimate business of the

to keep an eye out for all ill.mated
pairs. A marriage censorship may
result if the inspection idea proves
practicable.
