an apparent determination Of Paris

conditions coupled with the semi-an-

selling prices are placing a strain on
the bank extent Of this gold movement
though by granting credits now. which
we can do easily, later on in the sum
mer should our crop conditions prove
in measure satisfactory we could
draw down by means of the fotation

be forgotten in connection with the
above that many foreign banks are

currency to New York on the appear

we're carrying their loans on local ven

almost a certainty. The issue of bonds

well, but 1t. is generally recognized
that 1T is part of very large plan Of
a system that seems coming to the
front. The Texas and Pacific bond

DuN's WEEKLY REPORT.

New York June 21.-R. S. Dun ana
Company's weekly trade and business
report follows:
Weather conditions throughout the
country are reported as seasonable for
the first time in several months and
response is immediate in all branches
of business, while crop prospects have
improved greatly. With scarcely az
exception the weeks news is encour-
aging. especially from the west Con-
fidence grows with crops, and orders
come forward TO leading centers for
large fall and winter shipments of all
classes of merchandise.
Most Of the manufacturers are fu'ly
occupied on old contracts and there
is little prospect Of much idle ma
chinery in the near future except on
account of customary midsummer re-
pairs and inventories.
Some building operations have been
deferred by monetary or crop uneer-
tainties. but a large tonnage of shapes
is offered each week particularly in
contraction with railway and bridge
work. =
Less activity is reported in the prl-
mary market for cotton goods, nut
there Is no evidence Of weakness. On
the contrary several quotations are
higher. print cloths ruling close to
: cents. Many lines of fancy wool
ems have been opened and prices rule
about the same as last year. few
varieties held a trifie higher. Some
eastern wholesalers have placed large
contracts with New England show
manufacturers, but as yet the trade
Is still light.
Retsrnlng statesmen report that job
bers throughout the country carry
small stocks and a good autumn trade
is expected. although orders thus far
this season fall behind last years to
dale.

they have on"

them laconically.

''spent a week in jail before | entered

prison clothes. l did the prison work.

year, in jail meant. AS result I am
more merciful than most judges. /
think it would be a good thing if every
judge before taking Office woulG spend
q little while in jail as did. He would
then know the value of prison SEN
fences, thing he doesn't know now.
Now he is like cashier who attempts
to pay out money in coinage Of
which he is ignorant. In Baden this
thing speak of must be done. Every
judge in Baden before he takes his
seat on the bench is required by law
to pass weeks like common prisoner
in jail" Cincinnati Enquirer.

Eating Grasshoppers.

''No wonder | am brown" said a
globe trotter. Il am just back from
the Sahara. l spent two months wan
dering with a caravan of camels over
that white expanse of sun warmed
sand. The Sahara is like the beach at
Atlantic City, a fiat immensely Of the
whitest, cleanest sand, and the stran-
gest thing did in my wanderings was
to eat desert grasshoppers. The Arabs
regard these grasshoppers as a luxury,
and was tempted to try them, just as
in Paris l have been tempted to try
snails. The grasshoppers were good.
You plucked off the wings, the legs
and the head, and then you ate the
dried body. This morsel tasted precise
ly like an English walnut. ate grass
hoppers several times, and when | re-
turn to the Sahara I am going to eat
them again"

z ] .sCH GOVERNMENT REPORT
Plan Proposed for the Prcsbyterians
Which lis Suspected by Some
Deputies at Columbus.

Columbus. O., May p. - After 4
spirited discussion the Presbyterian
general assembly adopted the report Of
the special committee on administra-
tive agencies referring to the presby-
teries four overtures relating to
changes in the form OF government OF
the church, which provide for the es,
tablishment Of executive commissions
by the presbyteries. synods and gem
erai assembly, OF which the modera-
tors of the respective organizations
shall be the head. The opposition al
legged that the scheme was an at
tempt to build up a church govern
ment similar to the Roman Catlclic
church hierarchy.
BY unanimous vote the assembly
made the report of the committee on
temperance special order for tomor
row afternoon, at which time the con-
troyersy between the inter-church tenn
perance federation and the Anti-Sa ooh
League will be threshed out on the

a Brides Dilemma.

A. humorous romance is reported
from Natal, where youthful Hindoo
bride was recently called upon to
choose between her husband and her
jewels. The case came before the Dur
ban police court in the first instance,
where the brides parents, says the
Natal Mercury, accused her husband Of
abducting her while under thirteen
years of age. The bride, however,
claimed to be eighteen. and the magis-
trate dismissed the case. Outside the
court tug of war took place between
the two parties for the possession OF
the bride, In the course of which it APP
peared that what her parents particu-
larry desired was not herself, but her
jewelry. A sergeant of police then sat
in Judgment and decided that the jew
elry belonged to the parents, and the
girl must choose between her husband
and her bracelets After some cogita-
ton she chose the husband, who
promptly unfastened the bangles from
her arms and handed them to her
parents.

AGAINST UNION PICKETING
United States Judge Makes 1t Almost
Impossible in Strike at

Milwaukee. May 21.-A sweeping
decision against union picketing has
been rendered by Judge A. L. Sanborn.
of the United States district court, in
the case of the Allis-Chalmers COM
pany against the striking union mold
ers. The strike began about a year
ago. and last fall Judge Quarles issued
temporary injunction restraining the
unions from interference with non-un-
ion men or with the business of the
company.
Later Judge Sanborn adjudged sew
eral union men in contempt for violat-
ing the injunction, but suspended sen
tence as to the great number of them.
Now he makes the injunction perma-
nent and so sweeping in it's provisions
that picketing will be almost impossi-
