CERTIFICATES AND BONDS OVER
SUBSCRIBED - IMPROVEMENT
IN BUSINESS CONDITIONS MAY
LIMIT AMOUNT PUT OUT.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 28.-Owing
to the large amount of subscriptions
received, the secretary of the treas
ury late yesterday announced that
the subscriptions to the per cent
certificates of Indebtedness of the
act of June 3, 1898, invited by the
circular of November IS, 1907, are
closed and that no subscription re-
ceived after the close of business
The assistant treasurers of the Unit
ed States have been instructed not
to accept any further offers.
The decided improvement in bust
ness conditions throughout the coun-
try makes it quite possible that the
secretary will not extend the allot-
ments further than those already
made. ta
Calculations are always being
made as to the probable conditions
in the money market by spring and
the ability to call in part of the GER
tificates. If the amount issued
should be only $50,000,000 and half
of these should be paid. off in six
months, the interest charges would
fall materially below the $4,000 600
originally calculated upon the full
issues for one year.
The sum of $25,000,000 for six
months would draw interest to the
amount of $4,000 and an addi-
tional amount of $25,000,000 for
one year would draw $75O.OO0, maxi
ing a total of $1,125,0OO. This
would be at the rate of less than
Ia cents per capita for the people
of the country, and it is argued that
this would be cheap means of es-
cape from the difficulty, even for the
humble citizen whose labor might
be affected by the continuance of the
crisis. 1t is possible that some oof
the certificates will be called for
payment within even a shorter Pc
Rod than six months. 1t will proba-
bly, be the policy at about that time,
If conditions permit, to withdraw
some money from the banks in addf1
ton to the amount required to pay
OF certificates, but this will only be
done in case the accumulated effect
of gold imports. additional bank note
tcirculation, the reposit of public
moneys and the liberation of hoards
creates plethora of money in circu-
lation which calls for rectifcation
The treasury will be justified in the
opinion of the oficials in adding to
its working balance as son as mon
ey market conditions permit.

SCHOOLS MAY
HAVECHRISTMAS
NEW YORK BOARD RESCTEDS
FORMER ACTION. AND PER
M1Ts OBSERVANCE, OF DAY
ALONG TRADITIONAL LINES.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2S<--Christ-
mas carols may still be- sung and the
holiday will be observed along ira
dMional lines in the, public schools
of this city so far the educational
authorities are concerned.
Late yesterday the. board of edu-
cation unanimously adopted a reso-
luton which places that body on
record as not opposed to the OBJ
servance and leaves the matter to
the judgment of individual superin-
tendents. In fact, members of the
board declared afterward that there
never had been intention of aban-
doning these, programs and that the
recent agitation had risen from a
misunderstanding of resolution
adopted by the board last February.
This resolution provided that
strictly sectarian matters must not
be introduced into text or song
books, when some changes in the
winters new publications have been
deemed wise. These books are now
in press and it was reported that all
reference to Christ had been strick-
en- from the proof sheets.
The song books, 1t was rumored
would also contain no Christmas ca.
rolls. Protest against this proposed
action of the board followed and
many clergymen voiced a demand
that the school children be permitted
to celebrate Christmas In the ole
way.

Labor And Capital.

Steps are being taken by all the
large industrial corporations to elm
mate the antagonism between labor
and capital, which has been such a
dreaded monster in the past. This
movement is based upon the recogni-
ton of two facts-frst. that the
interests of employers and employees
are identical; second, that it is the
duty of rhe employer to interest him.
self in his employees and to make
everything as favorable to harmony
and good feeling as possible. The
details of such plan are many.
Already the General Electric Com
pany, working towards this end, has
established restaurants at its plants
at Schenectady, n, Y, aud Lynn,
Mass, where the employees are able
to obtain food of the best quality at
minimum prices. No futher profit
Is desired than is absolutely necessa-
ry for the maintenance of the restau-
rant. A number of the largest
corp orations Of this country also ex-
tend helping hand to their employ
ees who desire homes by making
small loans on the most liberal and
equitable terms.
Special attention is paid to the
education of the prentice that he
may be the very best of skilled
workman. The improvement of SAN
itary conditions and the adoption Of
many conveniences and safeguards
about factory buildings shows that
the employer is anxious to better the
conditions and promote a harmoniou
feeling between labor and capital.

Can't be Too Careful.

One Of our exchanges tells about
a young woman who attended party
and before going on the floor for a
waltz stuck her chewing gum under
the chair. A young man who had
been treated scornfully by her thought
he would play even. He took wad
of gum, spread it out and placed a
piece of tobacco inside, rolled the
gum and stuck it under the chair.
When the dance was ended she started
for her chair, putting the gum in
her mouth, and it is said by those
who witnessed the scene that when
the tobacco began to get in its work
there was the most peculiar acting
ever done before a large audience.
All the rest of the evening she stood
there and leaned against the chair a
perfect picture of inconsistencies.
Girls cans be to careful where they
put their gum.-Union Telegram.

came on that developed INTO
blizzard; then, too, the night be-
fore the Smart Set drew from

easily seen that the week has
been one stenuous round of per-

the benefit entertainment to have
been given for Thos. E. Broadly
has been postponed until such
date as we shall mention in our
