BAD PICTURE
IS SEIZED BY
COM R LUTHER

Shortly after Commissioner Luther,
chairman of the police commission, reach
ed his office this morning ne was visited
by Rev Fr Craig OF this city. who Wig
orously complained OF a picture that was
being exhibited at John Il. Nash's penny
vaudeville establishment on Westminster
street
Mr.. Luther with Secretary Gee imme-
diately visited the place, Viewed and then
seized the picture, taking IL TO police
headquarters.
The clergyman said that this morning
Protestant gentleman called at his resi-
dence and stated that he had just viewed
the picture in question and that II shocked
him 10 such an extent that he could not
refrain from calling attention TO II.
FIR. Craig looked at the picture, agreed
with his informant and acted as stated.
Chairman VIM. IA. Luther of the police
commission said this afternoon: II view
ed the picture after receiving the com
plant and agreed heartily with FIT.
Craig's contention that II was highly
improper one and should not have been
exhibited II was very rank. The picture
is now in the possession of the police
board which will probably consider the
subject at its next meeting"

HOLY MOSES"
HAS TRAVELLED
LAST JOURNEY

Holy Moses, the camel that became the
property OF the park commissioners
through the instrumentality Of the Mobiles
of the Mystic Shrine. is dead
He had not been i'm good health for
some time and lately a specialist was
summoned from Cambridge; but medi-
cines were without avail. and the Shrin
ers' pet died yesterday afternoon.
Holy Moses came 10 this city In part
for a curiosity at the park zoo. and in
part to take the weary novices across the
burning sands on their first introduction
TO the mysteries of membership I'm Pales-
tine temple, Mobiles OF the Mystic Shrine.
He was bought with the proceeds OF
popular subscription among the children
OF the members Of the temple. and by the
children presented to the park commits
sioners at a public gathering, with the
condition that he could be used when
needed by the temple. The purchase price
was 500. and the extras connected with
the public entertainment added $500.
Holy Moses was a Siberian dromedary

cred a fine specimen. He last appeared In

ECKELS TELLS
REFORM PLAN
FOR CURRENCY

Omaha, Neb.. Nov. 22.-In an address 10
the Nebraska Bankers association yes
terday James IA. Eckels Of Chicago, for
mer contiollG? Df he c.rr-n"v q scussed
the proposed currency reform and ex-
planned the recommendations drawn up at
the recent currency commission meeting
In Washington. Among other things, he
said that a central bank was an impossi-
bility In this country. Mr.. Eckels saiu:
"It Is a happy circumstance that the
need OF a more responsive character OF
bank note issue and better adapted lie
business undertaking demands attention
at time when the prosperity Of the
country Is undoubted and It's credit sound.
The demand for better things springs
neither from a panic nor threatened dis
tress. It Ia not the far cry Of the banker
I'm the first instance but the men who,
outside the distinctive realm or finance,
feel how inadequate are the banks Of the
country.
"A great central bank is an impossible
ity In this country. where political Issues
always prevail and where individuality IN
every part Of the country VIII not SUI
render itself TO concentrated power in the
field OF banking.
we can better afford to try something
seemingly new which research and expert.
ence prove fundamentally right, than go
Oh with measures which, though sound In
a single regard. are inadequate and wrong
ir every other respect.
THE vast usefulness OF deposit cur
rency and a check currency Is acknowl-
edged. Why not supplement these effi-
cheney agencies by adding responsive
bank note currency which Is essential as
an element to meet needs which neither
the one nor the other can always provide.
But the argument is advanced that the
proposed unsecured bank note currency
suggested by the commission will become
the means of an imitation of our volume Of
currency which will encourage speculation
on every hand and work out panic and
disaster ] challenge the objection thus
made as unsound because imitation never
comes through an issue of notes which are
quickly convertible on demand, With re-
demption agencies near at hand, and
where the monetary standard Of value
upon which such notes rest is not de-
based
such currency will have held against IL
a reserve OF the same character and as
adequate as the bank deposits liability.
For it's redemption there are TO be agen-
cies conveniently situated so that there
viii be no delay in quickly converting II
into money. II will be issued only against
existing values and at times when there Is
a demand for it's use

terest that this play excites was duly
placed before the theatregoing public Of

the lessee of the theatre were excellent.

TO produce was not his fault.
