States Large Credit Balance.

Albany, June A balance of state
funds of $20.645,S97, the largest ever
before deposited to the credit of the
state, is reported for the month of
May by State Treasurer Hauser. The
states receipts from indirect sources
of taxation during the month were
large, the excise moneys aggregating
$S,7070 900, which is haff a million more
than last year. The stock transfer
tax returned $556,0OO and corporations
paid an aggregate of $557 900, twice as
much as for the corresponding month
of last year. State Comptroller Glynn
and State Treasurer Hauser have de-
cided that the state funds shall net
larger interest return than heretofore
and banks holding state deposits will
be required to increase the rate of in
terest on them fxpm to 8 per cent

To Boost Price of Bread.

A smaller loaf or cent advance
seems to be the next jar for the
harrassed housekeeper, judging from
the way millers are boosting the
price of -four at Chicago. which has
climbed from $3.50 to Sc a barrel In
about 30 days. 1T is due to the ad-
vance in the price of wheat" said a
representative of the Pillsbury-Wash-
burn company. Members of the Board
of Trade, however, say there has been
little advance in the price of real
wheat-that the increase has been the
result of manipulations and doctored
reports, and is all on paper. Grain
elevators are full of wheat, with prac-
tically no shipments.

What is believed to be the first pub
lie ownership theater in the United
States was dedicated with great cere-
mony in Shawnee township, just west
of the city Of Lima, o.
The playhouse is in the country,
where large audiences will be prac-
tically impossible, but is perfectly
equipped with the most modern ap-
paratus.
The Shawnee township government
is unique in that it has more money
than 1t can conveniently. get rid Of.
The Standard Oil company's great
tanks, refineries and car works are In
the township, though the workers live
in the city. The company pays many
thousands of dollars yearly to the
township in taxes, but nothing to the
city. Consequently the township is
burdened with wealth. though the city
is not.
Having paved all the country roads
in the township either with brick or
macadam, and made all the other
public improvements they could think
of, the farmer members of the town
ship board finally decided to build the
theater. What they will do with next
years revenue is a problem.

officials of various states likely to be
affected by the rate litigation now be-
fore the federal district court, may be
held in st. Paul SHORTLY. Attorney Gen.
eral Young is considering the advis-
ability of sending out general call.
Mr.. Young says the suits are nothing
more than an attack on states rights,
and are important enough to warrant
general cooperation, especially by
Iowa, Illinois, Indiana and New York,
the legislatures of which have just
passed rate-regulating laws.
Another suit seeking to annul the
new Minnesota 2-cent passenger rate
law and the commodity freight law
was filed in federal court today against

identical with those begun last week
by stockholders of eight other rail-

brought will be held June 12, when the

George Burnham, Jr., former gen.

Life Co., who is serving term in
Sing Sing for grand larceny, is to
have new trial under decision
handed down by the appellate divis-
ion of the supreme court. In the de-
cision, written by Justice Ingraham, 1t
is held that the testimony as whole,
as presented against Burnham in the
lower court, does not justify convic-
tion. 1t adds that errors were COM
mitted both in ruling upon questions
of evidence and in the method by
which the case was submitted to the
Jury.

Kansas Iiever observed Memorial
Day as strictly as this year. They
could not help it, for new state law
prohibits all amusements on this day.
This law was brought about because
a circus persisted in giving two per-

last year on Memorial Day. This year
there were no circuSes, carnivals,
a1N ment parks, racing matinee or
baseball games. In fact practically
every form of amusement has been

INTERNATIONAL ISSUE.
British Captain Refused to Give Up =
Deserter From Fort Seward.

Washington, June 4.-Colonel Henry
A. Greene of the Tenth infantry, com.
manding at Fort William H. Seward,
Alaska, has appealed to the war de-
partment to cause the arrest and re-
turn of a deserter, and incidentally to
punish the captain of British ship
who perhaps has created an interna-
tional issue.
geant Buell., a member of the post
band, deserted from Fort Seward and
made his way on board the British
steamer Princess May. When the ship
touched at Katchikan, Alaska, May a..
the city marshal, under instructions
from the military authorities, sought
to arrest Buell..
The latter locked himself in his
cabin and the captain of the ship re-
fused to allow him to be forcibly ar
rested, and sailed away to a Canadian
port, where the deserter landed and
disappeared.
Colonel Greene asks the war depart
ment to have the state department
make demand upon the British gov
ernment for the return of the deser-
ter to Fort Seward and for the punish
ment of the captain.
The acting judge advocate general,
however, has taken the ground that
the military has no such authority and
If the effort is made ito punish the
British captain 1t must be through the
civil authorities, who were derelict in
the first place, in not arresting both
the deserter and the captain If he re-
sisted process within territorial wa
ters.

David Hume Make. Reaue.t.

A iocular bequest of David Hume to
his friend, John Home, was curious.
Home liked claret and disliked port,
calling II poison, and the two friends
had many discussions on the subject.
They also used to have disputes as to
which of them took the proper way of
spelling their common family name.
The philosopher, about fortnight be-
fore his death, wrote with his own
hand the following codicil to his will:
81 leave to my friend, Mr.. John Home
of Kilduff. ten dozen Of my old claret
at his choice and one single bottle of
that liquor called port. | also leave
him six dozen of port, provided that
he attests under his hand, signed John
Hume, that he himself alone finished
that bottle at two sittings. BY this
concession he will Mt once terminate
the only two differences that ever arose
between us concerning temporal mat
ters. New York Tribune.

Anrarian Riots In Ireland.

The latest phase of the land agita-

land is crusade against the holders
of grazing farms on the II months
lease system, and it is developing with
great rapidity and intensity.
Roscommon, Kings county and
North Tipperary are the centers of
lawlessness. In bygone times these
localities saw many evictions, and to-
day the peasants are determined that
the land shall be redistributed to small
holders.
Bands of peasants are destroying
