PLAN PROPOSED BY FOWLER
Issues on the Credit of Bank with
Guaranty Fund.

The plan proposed by Representative
Fowler, chairman of the house com
mittee, provides for issues upon the
general credit of the bank, with provi-
sion for guaranty fund raised by tax
alton upon circulation. This guaranty
fund is to be employed when necessary
to redeem the notes of failed banks It
is the contention of Fowler and 9th.
ers who favor this plan that tax of
ABOUT onetwelfth Of l per cent. annu-
ally upon the circulation would meet
all losses. but in order to insure abso-
Lutte safety they propose that the tax
shall be very much larger than this.
The plan of further issues upon new
types of bonds which are not now ac-
ceptable under the law finds support
among those who believe that bank
notes should not be issued except upon
specific security which is out of the
custody of the bank. The usual meas
ure of this kind provides for addition
al issues upon state and municipal
bonds acceptable to the secretary Of
the treasury, and in some cases upon
railroad bonds which comply with the
provisions of the New York and Mas
sachusetts laws for savings banks in
veStmentS.
Washington, Nov. 25.-No response
was forthcoming, either at the White
House or at the treasury department.

York by Representative Fowler. chair

ing and currency, commenting adverse

bonds and treasury certificates.

How a Flea Jumps.

1t is said that flea leaps 200 times
it's height, and. while it usually does
land on its feet, it often falls, especial
ly when it falls on a perfectly smooth
surface where the claws can get only
a slight hold. A flea has six legs,
whose great length and bulk make
them so heavy that they must be a
great help in keeping their owner right
side up when it makes one of these
gigantic jumps, and when it lands up
side down or in some other way it's
ability to kick is so great that not
more than one wriggle is needed to
set things right. A fleas wings are
mere scales and of no use; but, small
and worthless as they are, they tell
the entomologist something about the
proper classification Of the insect. To
the flea itself they have no value.

New York, Nov. 25.-Representative

permit. Measures relating directly tC
the currency which are being discussed

under four heads-a central bank OF

classes of bonds other than United

ton upon general assets with the Sc
curity of a guaranty fund.
Project of a Central Bank.
The project of a central bank, based
upon the general outlines of the bank
of France or the Imperial Bank OF
Germany, has apparently been attract
ing more attention of late than at any
previous time in recent years. 1t is
considered somewhat significant in
some quarters that Ridgely, the comp
troller of the currency, has just de-
clared for q central bank of issue, az
ter having in previous reports recon-.
mended only geneal credit currency
for tie existing banks. The utterances
of Ridgely are not, however, consid

the subject.

We'll, the jury in the Thaw case did just about what the larger jury that has been considering the case has done, namely, disagreed. It wasn't at any time probable, and perhaps not even possible, that there would be any other result. Thaw has not been at any time in serious danger of being convicted of murder in the first degree, and an acquittal was little too much to expect, though a verdict of acquittal would have pleased many who think that the case is one of love, jealousy and 'the unwritten law"
 What next? IA new trial, according to District Attorney Jerome, It is to be hoped that new trial wont mean a new eruption of such as the trial just ended has made. It is a celebrated and a sickening case, and the sooner it is off the stage the better. But there can be no doubt that very many people are deeply interested in it, and perhaps they can stand another mess of it.

"Rita" in the Rapid Magazine says; Woman is tired of her pedestal. She is tired of eulogy and ehivalry and devo- tion. She is tired of being woman, of having all sorts of beautiful and im- possible virtues attributed to her, and so she has kicked her pedestal aside, She has come down into the hustle and scrimmage of ordinary life. and she frankly tells foolish man that she never has been what he has imagined her.
 This strikes us as entirely too rapid. If woman is doing as Rita says, the news hasn't got around very extensive ly, Woman tired of eulogy and chivalry and devotionY Who, man or woman, is tired of those or wants less of them?
