Mark Twain refuses to let his captivat-
ting autobiography bs published in
book form until after his death, but
journalistic enterprise has come TO
the rescue, and we are to have Marks

sented to let il appear as serial. 1t
has been secured at enormous cost by
the Sunday Magazine OF THE CHICAGO
RECORD herald, hich has name
for capturing big prizes OF this sort,
such as Conan Doyle's sir Nigel and

Thus it falls out that the readers OF
THE SUNDAY RECORD HERALD are to
have delightful treat without extra
cost For months To come dark Twain
will go on telling in his droll way
about the famous people he has met,
how he came to create Colonel Sellers
and Tom Sawyer, and all the funny
things that have happened to him.

trated The first installmeut--in the

widespread call in the newspapers

that the interests ot South Dakota In

efficiently or judiciously than when
Messrs Martin and Burke represented

locality would welcome their return
and it is strongly TO be hoped that
they will allow the use OF their names.

The Perfumes of Araby.

Sometimes a ombination Of two or
more odors gives much more delight
full perfume than either used singly
For example, combine an ounce and
half of some really good violet extract
with half an ounce each of rose, tube
rose and cassia extract, and the result
is a decidedly novel yet delicate and
lasting perfume. Ii to this are added
half an ounce of the tincture of orris
root, five drops of oil of bitter almond
and two and quarter drains OF triple
rosewater, the odor Is intensified, yet
not too strongly.
If two and one-half ounces each Of
extract of rose and tuberose, with a
gill of extract of cassia and two and
one-half ounces Of tincture Of orris
root, with a single grain Of bitter aim
ond oil, are well blended, most ex-
cellent imitation of a fragrant violet
perfume results.
These delicate extracts, 1t must be re
membered, call for care and exactness
in blending and most exquisite clean
lfness in utensils and bottles, as the
oils are SO absorbent that they become
spoiled. and ones time, money and
work are all for naught

A WALL STREET PANIC

The storm that has assailed Wall
street has been, SD far AS its effect oa
the values of stock is concerned, the
most severe in many years. The
prices Of some of the standard issues
have been carried to the lowest point
since 1897, when the upward move
ment after The prolonged depression
following 1893 began. But the panic
yesterday and of the last few days has
been peculiarly local matter. Fol
lowing prolonged decline, broken by
only brief tendencies to tirmer prices,
it's immediate cause WAS the collapse of
the Heinze interests, the troubles OF
the Heinze bank and the excitement
caused by that event. None Of the in
tors or reorganized for the purpose Of
getting rid OF speculative manage
ment seems 70 have been la weak
condition. The troubles OF these in-
situations are likely TO prove tempo
rary. Nothing that has occurred re
veals any underlying unsoundness
even in New York.
Aud certainly there are no indica-
Lions Of weakness in the rest of the
country. A few sporadic cases ol
trouble have developed and may de
velOp here and there In different part
OF The country because of special con
ditions, but with the crop yield what i
Is and business on as solid a founda
tiOn as 1t is even q more serious con
dition in New York than that which
exists could do no lasting harm.
As matter of fact the collapse il
the stock market is on the whole
good thing. IL has squeezed som'
specnlators severely and will extin
guisE some of them permanently; bu
that, aside from individual embarrass
lnents In few cases, is not an un
wholesome process. The wind ha
been forced out OF the market and tn
situation has lost whatever inhatiO
there WAs ID Ii The warning, more
over, bas been 90 ample, the storr
has gathered 90 slowly that II is saf

Moreover, there is bound TO be u
bottom. For the properties they rep
resent are earning just a. much
money as they ever did and are just as
valuable 10 the investor. An enormous
amount of money must have been
poured into the market Yesterday and
the day before from all parts OF the
country by persons who TOOK advantage
of the abnormaliy low prices To acquire
high rade stocks. That movement
will be even stronger as soon as All
upward tendency distinctly asserls IL
self and the temporary excitement is
over.
For the panic, which has been so
peculiarly confined to Wall street,
Wall street alone is responsible. 1t
has been bowling so loud and so long
that the president was attacking all
wealth and all capital and was under
mining credit and confidence and that
there was bound to be crash, that 1t
has made itself and almost every one
within hearing distance believe its
representations. IL has sim ply reaped
what 1t has, ia it's hysteria, somn. Ii a
cashier should loot New York bank
aud bust" it ia some way Or other the
disaster, would be traced back to the
president, If a high tinancier loots a
trust company or four or tive subsidiary
traction companies, not he, but the
president, is to blame for the public's
lack of confidence in the institutions
with which he Is connected. On this
theory, if shoplifter is caught with
the goods on him, not he, but the
policeman, is to be blamed for the
failure of the community to continue to
trust him. For, If the policeman had
not exposed him, he could still pose
AS an honest man and no one would be
worried by his presence in their
stores. 1t Is much better TO be robbed
rs long as you don't know it than TO
know it and be sorry. According to
the peculiar political theories OF Wall
street it is most dangerous and un-
patriotic act to disturb public conf
dence in the peculiar methods thai
! have been evolved ia that district
Tor separating individuals from their
money st. Paul Pioneer Press.

THE FINANCIAL CRISIS-ITS CURE AND
SOME OF ITS LESSONS

The financial condition of the whole
during the past week. Originating in
Wall street and more precisely local
than any similar disturbance in third
of q century, 1t also demonstrates that
Wall street is no longer the center and
substance Of the financial system OF the
natioh. The stock gamblers and wild
cat bankers, who for years have been
bowling that Pres. Roosevelt was the
enemy of capital and every form OF
financial organization. have sought to
create just such crisis in order to
charge it up to Pres Roosevelt's, square
deal" policy. After the stringe ncy
was created the federal treasury re-
fused to come TO the Rescue, Chicago
and the West shut down in order to
protect itself and the Wall street
chickens are coming home TO roost
and are roosting hard aud promptly.
There is no occasion for any alarm
or anxiety on the part of any, except
those who have been dying too high.
Our banks have plenty of money and
propose to keep 1t right mere where 1t
was made and Is needed, instead OF al
lowing it to be drained into the low
levels of eastern speculation and
peculaiiOn. SO far as our local banks
are concerned they have had no choice
ia the matter aud are simply compelled
BY the action of the monetary ceaters
To take the steps of financial quaran-
line which they have. Quarantine,
enforced promptly and care
fully, always prevent the spread of
disease, and, although iacongenient is
healthy. Let cool heads and sober
cuunsels prevail, with patience unde r
slight and necessary inconveniences,
and few days will see the whole
country on better financial foundation
than for years and prosperity, un-
bounded aud unparalleled, will soon
smile on the Industrious and the pru.

The prospect now seems to be that
South Dakota will practically get all
the benefits of the 2.cent rate laws
passed by adjoining states without pref
udicing the roads againss us. Mileage
books for 1000 miles will soon be issued
for $40 cash, good In hands of bearer
and good In this state as we'll As in the
2-cent states. This is much better
than the present arrangement which
gives the purchaser only 2O00 miles
travel for $50 with $3.50 refund on
the return Of the covers. 1t is much
better for the roads also, as it saves
an immense amount OF clerical WORK In
checking up every piece of mileage
and charging 1t 70 the owner OF the
book. The effect will be to greatly
increase the sale Of mileage books, for
this reduced fare can be obtained only
BY using mileage and the mileage can
be used by any member OF the family
or any other person. The hearing on
the 23-cent rate Law la South D.kota
has just been postponed again and
with accent rate 10 sight it may well
be- doubted il the railroad commission
will insist very strongly on the q
cent rate.

she gave the gown away. Sb'. told the
dressmaker never to make her another

made any difference; but as she want

enough to nod In sympathy.
