ages ago in the bog. There had been
exceptionally warm weather in the
north of Siberia, and the river, swoll-

more and more released the body. Its
hind legs were still imbedded when he
saw it. but tWenty-fOur hours liberated
these. The mammoth had sunk feet

over it. Successive tides had heape1l

seeking enlistments from the sturdy
woodsmen who were at work there.
Among them was a giant lumberman
named Jim Martin.
He was using a handspike made
from i river birch sapling recently cut
and still green. Eager to go to the
front, he thrust his handspike deep
into the soft soil of the river bank
and went away with the recruiting Of
ficer.
The handspike Jim Martin used
was too big and heavy for any of his
fellows to handle, and it was left stick
ing where he had jabbed it into the
ground. The next spring it was no.
ticed that it was putting forth green
shoots, showing that it had rooted in
the ground.
cit was left undisturbed, and it grew
to be q great tree, and it stands today
on the spot where the patriotic Jim
Martin thrust it into the earth as a
battered handspike. Jim Martin was
killed in battle, and his bones lie some
where on Mexican ground. but he has
his monument in this still sound and

Former Bank Examiner Says the
Present Financial FURRY
was Made to Order.
Declares "Interests'' Threatened
Just What Happened.
General Prosperity Defeated the
Schemers in Their Foul
Purpose.

Former Bank Examiner johnson of
Minnesota is back from a six weeks
stay in New York City.
While there he gave close attention
to the causes that led up to the recent
financial disturbance, and to the Min
neapolis Journal he states his conclu-
sions as follows:
s'The situation under which we are
suffering is purely mechanical and
political in nature. AS compared with
'93 or earlier panics, it has no rela-
ton whatever and is not Of the same
family. Then the warehouses OF the
manufacturers and jobbers we're full
of goods, from attic to cellar that no
one wished to buy. The warehouses
of raw material dealers and brokers
were bursting with their overload of
stock The farmer, raising cereals
and produce, had had a chain OF crop
failures and his farmwa thoroughly
blanketed with mortgages, several
layers deep in many instances. In
fact, every dollar had been borrowed
that the average farmer could borrow
on his property. Chattel mortgages
were the rule throughout the west and
central west. Under those conditions
panic was inevitable and necessari-
ly of long duration. Our present con-
ditions are exactly the opposite. The
only warehouses that are now filled
are filled with the product of the farm,
which exceeds the bumper crop of last
year, according to the secretary OF
agriculture, more than 800, 600, 900.
The railroads instead of having moth
ing to haul, as they did in 1898, have
more than they can possibly handle
and are loaded both ways, SO that
their long-heard-cry for the ton
mile'' is more than realized. The far
mers have prOspered wonderfully and
their bank balances are enormous.
Gall ofthis makes it evident to even
the casual observer that some unna-
tural influence has brought about the
present financial condition. 1t is
variously estimated in the east among
the men who know, when they talk
without reservation, that from $780,
600, 900 to 5000, OO0, 600 of currency was
Withdrawn from circulation in the six
to ten months previous to the Novem.
Der panic; that. this currency had been
withdrawn in preparation for an emer-
gency which certain great captains OF
finance thought might occur-that is,
the necessity of pulling off a political
scare to stop the government in its
investigation of the great corpora
lions of the country and hold up the
Roosevelt policy of corporate control.
For if by squeezing the pocketbooks
of the common people and throwing
thousands of men out Of employment
they could create public sentiment
against the policies Of the president
and in favor of letting the trusts alone,
they would have succeeded in thai
which they believe to be an absolute
necessity

State Fire Marshal Peterson in a

ceeds $4,000 year, while the loss
caused by sparks falling on single

half as much.
Among heaters the cook stove
sacrifices most property, and the gaso-
line stove most lives. The worst cul-
prit is the cook stove, which has no
eight-hour day nor Sunday off. The
gasoline stove causes a greater num-
Der Of fires, but the loss is smaller by
half because attention is attracted to
such fires before they have time for a
good start. The gasoline fire starting
with an explosion sounds its own
alarm, and, added to this, there is US

Many fires occur from a clothes
horse or chair holding clothing or
laundry being placed too near a stove
or CRATE and few from kindling put
in a warm place over night to dry.
1.-THE newspaper accounts of many
horrible accidents from using kerosene
or gasoline to start fire do not seem
greatly to lessen the number burned
in that way. Kerosene may be safely
used for the purpose if the stove is
cod or if the kindling is blazing.
Heat without blaze converts it into
gas which will explode when a blaze
starts. Gasoline so used is fearfully
dangerous
A parlor or bedroom stove should
always have metal under it, and if the
wall is within eighteen inches it should
be protected by sheet metal on one
eighth inch asbestos cloth. When
covering a coal fire to keep it over
night, remember that coal swells one
third while burning, so hot Goals are
likely to fall out of the open door or
over the CRATE bar. Many houses were
fired last year by drapery over CRATES
and stoves igniting.
'sFrom $50 to 500 mothers and chill
dren are burned to death and three
times that number seriously burned
and disfigured in the United States
each year by gasoline stove accidents.
Last year a mother essayed with one
arm to fill the tank Of lighted stove
while holding her baby with the other.
Both have died from burns, and
another little one playing near will be
disfgured for life. Stove accidents
usually result from filling the tank
without turning Off the blaze or from
splitting gasoline and then lgniting the
vapor of it by striking a match to
light the stove. The gasoline can
should be we'll corked.
"A gasoline stove should be fixed to
a permanent foundation so that it can
not be placed against wood or other
infiammable material. It should have
bottom and three sides closed to pre-
vent combustible material from reach
ing the flame, and the main burner
CRATES should be two feet from the
floor.
Don't fail to have burners closed
before filling the reservoir, for fluid
leaking through them will make an ex-
plosive vapor.
Finally, don't go with light to
hunt the source of an odor of gaso-
line. The result of finding it by that
means is always instantaneous and
momentous
