On last Saturday evening quite
a crowd stormed the home OF Mr..
and Mrs. 3. w Patton, on East
Sheridan, to remind them that on
Sunday. Nov. ;, they had been
married six years. They were
thoughtful enough, however, to
bring we'll filled baskets, and 1t
is useless to say that there was
some eating going on at the Pat
ton home later. especially by Ben,
for that is one of his long suits.
The evening was spent in So
cial conversation, music, both vo-
cal and instrumental. Delicious
and substantial refreshments were
served, and everybody had 4 fine
time. The affair was a complete
surprise to Mr.. and Mrs. Patton,
and to say that Ben and his vile
were more ratified" than on the
occasion six years ago, is putting
it mildly. Those present were:

Wall Street HobbIed.

The banks and bankers OF the
west have eifectually hobbled
Wall street. When the western
banks refused to deliver all the
money they had to the sharks Of
Wall street that part Of the
country was compelled to sit up
and take notice. In days gone
by, when Wall street was short
of money and a call was made on
the west for money, the west fool
like c0ughrd up. the result being
that when the west was gutted,
81 Ia speak, the money loaners OF
the east would fix whatever rates
their fancy desired, and the west
had il to pay.
The action Of the bankers in
declining to forward money to
| the east is very generally COM
mendrd, and the action taken 10
limit payments on checks is right.
IL people were allowed To check
out their money the country
would soon BE- in as bad a condi-
tion as il the money had all gone
east. The business of the coun-
TRY can be done on paper for
awhile, and the people will soon
become accustomed to it. 1t is
remarkable how little money is
needed in the transaction of busi-
ness. Not more than five per
cent of the business of the coun-
TRY is done with the real coin of
the realm anyway.
The western bankers can not
get money from their reserve
agents, neither can the reserve
agents get it from the powers
higher up. AS soon as the Wall
street financiers find they cannot
gut the west. they will loosen up
and the currency will begin to
come west again.
In the meantime be patient.
Everything is all right, and the
banks which were all right be-
fore money became scarce are all
right yet. Just 60 ahead and do
business with checks and other
negotiable paper.

The shark has been perhaps N
most universally worshiped Of al iAs
Hawaiia animal gods. Strange aS il
may seem, the islanders formerly -
garied the shark as being the friend
and protector of all those who pay him

the coast of the main islands Of the
Hawaiian group formerly had its pa

The Sun, the Moon ard the Tides.

Most persons suppose that the moon
alone is responsible for the pheaoMe-
non of tides, but the attraction of the
sun is also an important factor. OF
course the distance Of tae sun from the
earth is unthinkably greater than that
of the moon, but it's mass is 50 enor-
nous that it has a considerable tide pro-
ducing influence. The force which the
sun exerts is the same on both sides of
the earth at the same time, the tide
producing force of the. great orb being
about four-tenthS that ofsthe moon. At
the time of both new and full moons
the ''wane spheroids produced by both
the sun and the moon have their axes
coincident''-that is to say, the two
great orbs unite their energies on the
fluids Of cur planet, aad as a result the
tides are higher than*the average for
the remaining portions of the month.
These are the spring tides" The
'tneap tides" come in the time of the
moons first and third quarter and are
not as great as the average, because
the moon and the sun. are each working
in opposition to1the other.

The Raven.

Many birds seek the protection which
the presence .ofsman affords against
furred ands fsar sfed foes when the
breeding sesson approaches. Not so
the raven. Its SGust Of US is pro-
found, and51s. nest is placed In some
wild spot far o1A Of reachsof our pos
sible attack or succor. But there are
ether enemies. I know of a pair that
built on the side OF a projecting crag
high up on the cliffs of Rathline island.
Somesf fierce peregrine falcons occupied
the other side Of the crag, and when
one day. their eggs were staken by an
adventurous collector they, sharing the
popular opinion of ravens blackness,
concluded that their neighbors were
the offenders and wrecked their grief
and vengeance upon tkem. When, on
their sFesnrn from a foraging exeeai-
ton. the falcons found their nest dc
spoiled they were seen tofhota a CON
suitation. and after much aelfee-azion
they suddenly arese apftbo.h ia enc

sacked it, tearing 1t ia their rage and
indignation Until net ore stick was left

Limited Command.

John Puryear of Richmond was one
of Mosby's men in the eyentful days
when the woods and hills of northern
Virginia made the picturesque back
ground for some of the hottest encoun-
ters OF the civil war. Puryear was q
mere STRIPPING when the war began and
put on his first long trousers as a wear
er Of the Confederate gray. Neverthe-
less, he fought like q veteran. He lack
ed a veterans balance, for, although
fearless, he had not the slightest judG-
ment, q fact which, says Mr.. MunsoE.
the author of 'Mosby's Men," Mosby
once recognized with considerable hu-
NOR. All that Puryear knew about war
was what he gathered i'll each mad
rush through the ranks of the enemy.
with his long black hair flying in the
wind and his revolver hot with action.
He rode like a centaur. and no enemy
ever existed that he would not engage,
hand to hand, hip and thigh. After one
of the most daring rushes Mosby said
to him:
"Puryear, am going to make you 4
lieutenant for gallantry."
Puryear swept his piumed hat in
bow that was royal in its grace.
"But," continued Colonel Mosby, az
don't want you ever to command any
of my men"
