SPELLING REFORM REVIVED.

Spelling reform, which has been un- der a cloud of late, comes into notice again because of improved" spelling rules adopted by the press of Columbia University. A list of 300 words has been compiled, which includes anes- thetic, apothem, develop, envelop. es- thetic. gage, .gazel. phenix, good-by, molder, hitter. sinliter and rime. Just why thro. tho and the rest of the 'ough'' family were spared is a ques- tiOn that will occur to people who have watched the progress of spelling re- formers. but We have seen no explana- tion offered in print. Most Of the words are easily recognized in their simpli- fled form, although 'gazer' seems to lose its poetic euphony when shorn of the final le. By some strange chance the reformers hit upon the word hic- cough as one Of their victims, and hereafter it will be officially spelled hiccup at Columbia. If the new spell ing could be guaranteed to mitigate the horrors of the malady it would quickly come into general use.

WEARING HATS IN CHURCH.

Ashtabula. Ohio, is the scene of a ser- ious misunderstanding between the clergy and the ladies of the churches over the question of the propriety of wearing hats in church. The clergy united in an effort to compel the la
 dies to remove their hats,in church as they do in theaters. The ladies, in stead of accepting the pious order meekly, are in open rebellion. and stand upon their ancient privilege to wear their hats at religious services. One of them is reported to have retorted when the custom enforced in theaters was cited: Well, people are interested in something other than hats when they are in a darkened theater, but in church We must and shall wear them" This line of reasoning may not seem 10 bear analysis, but 1t expresses the sentiment of the ladies on the main point with great force and clearness, so that there is little consolation for the clergymen although it does seem to confirm the suspicious sometimes

HE WASTE OF STOCKS
 BROUGHT 10 A STOP
Many Other Indications of an Inn
 provement of Financial Conditions.

New York. Nov. 22.-The most i'm portant feature of tOday's stock market was a discontinuance of the k:nd of liquidation which has kept the senti- ment nervous and upset for several days. The action of the market today that arrangements had been made 10 take up the case of the threatened in terests apd thus put stop to the heavy sactifices which are being made in foreign liquidation. There was some comment about the delay of the issu- ance of the autumn call by the comp troller of currency for reports from nationa banks. the usual period for growing conviction that the responses will disclose a heavy accession of cash holdings by banks outside the central reserve they have usually held in New York. having been withdrawn from here for that purpose. Importance is attached to the opening up of French sources of supply for the demand for gold and important proportion of the days engagements coming from the Bank of France. The rise in the price of copper in the metal exchange is an incident to which some importance is attached.
 The days dealings were the smallest of the week. Bonds were weak.

GENTRY CIRCUS HAS
 MADE A STRONG HIT
Well Managed and Popular Show Does Good Business in City of Los Angeles.

What may be cOnservatively regard ed as the continuation of the local cir GUS season commenced with the open ing of a four days engagement at Flower and Eleventh streets yesterday afternoon. of Gentry Bros Famous shows. United. says the Los Angeles Herald. Tn view of the shows date in this city Nov. 27. afternoon and evening the comment of the Herald is timely:
 Comparatively a stranger in this particular territory. and following the field formerly held by tented shows whose habitat is the Pacific slope. the Gentrys were heralded as first class. and easily made good at the opening performance.
 IL would be an ultra base commen- tator who could not find much to praise in the character and cleanliness of the Gentry performance. and if he were inclined to be grabbed about it would take an iron-clad opinion tn contend against the reception given almost every number by the audience of children and elders that applauded. cheered and laughed at the comedy Of MT. and Mrs. Snyder" and their infant dog "Budge." and professional appearance of MT. Dooley' and his operations on the sick pony. the antics of the pony-riding monkeys and the elephant supper. It is a rare expe- rience to see a canvas auditorium crowded by children of several genera tions. all visibly. and vocally enjoying to the utmost a performance which lasts two hours and is participated in almost wholly by dumb brutes
 The original purpose of the tented show was to cater to the amusement of the children. and while that pur- pose has been somewhat lost in the glad scramble to get the worlds greatest shows" on the road. the pub lie mind is the same it has always been, and any show in which the pub lie is permitted to have a part and is able to see it all'' is assured of per- petual popularity. This is probably the secret of the Gentry shows sue cess.
 From the grand parade of the horses and ponies. through the fifty-pony pyramid act, tine dancing dogs, bell ringing ponies. high lesping grey hounds. somersaulting poodles and rope skipping dogs. down to the mili- tary pony drill and the monkey fire department in actual operation the performance was greeted by glad ac- claim by the many hundreds present

A SPOT UPON WHICH THE LIGHT
 WAS NOT TURNED.

The New York World believes that the present financial situation is not productive of a strong argument in favor of an extension of federal con- trol for which there has been for some time an urgent demand. The World points out that the precipitating cause of the present furry. if not the sole cause of it was the discovery of the rOttenness of the Mercantile National Bank ef New York and the consequent discovery of a similar condition in other national banks. If those banks had complied with the laws or had been made to comply with the laws the manipulations of the Heinzes. the Thomases and Morse would have been impossible. Yet the federal govern ment has absolute control over the national banks. The state authorities are powerless to investigate or correct their shortcomings.
 All the banks which have been held to be more or less directly responsible for the present situation had recently been investigated by national bank ex- aminers. There is no hint We believe in the case of any of these banks that anything was concealed from the eX- aminers previous to their last recent and favorable reports.
 The Mercantile then as just before it's collapse was Overladen with the Heinze securities, a fact of which the examiner must have had cognizance So far as the federal government was concerned the banks under its control were sound.
 It is true that most of them were. and most of them knew at the same time what the examiners ought to have known, that a few of them were unsound. committee of New York bankers took up the work neglected by the federal authorities and in self protection posted those banks as un- safe. for the longer the neglect was permitted to continue the worse the crash would be when it should come
 If, asks the World, the government has shown such gross inefficiency in the exercise of its complete and un- disputed control over the national banks. how shall it have the hardihoOd to ask for control of the more compli- cated railroad and interstate commerce business of the country?
