about him that indicated future fame. All people of Greenfield knew the bare- foot urchin, and even after his star had risen they were unable to picture him anything but that same luckless lad Long after he had left Greenfield and his poems had touched the tend- crest cards of human affection he met one of the old citizens of Greenfield on the street in Indianapolis. It was their first meeting in years. The old man took MT. Riley by the hand and gave, him an old-fashioned shake. He look ed him over carefully, spark of ad- miration in his eye.
 Say, Jim," the old man. said. II can hardly believe that you are the same Jim that I used to know as little boy in Greenfield. You didn't amount to much over there, you know, and nobody ever thought you would come to the front the way you have. / Here you are now, making money hand over fist Why, Jim, I hear that you sit down and write stuff for peo- pie to read, and that you get S5. a word for every word you write"
 Yes, that's true." said MT. Riley; but there is many day when l can't think of single word to write. . Indianapolis News,

100000 to blue, 1,S00,000 to orange and 2,2O0,00O to yellow. Then there are 13O,- OOO,00O rods which see white; or lumin- isity, the portion of light not absorb ed by color, but reflected. Let us. as- sume that in an eye, in it's making, 500,0OO cones which see green are left out. That eye would be color blind to green. But it would still have its rods" which would see the white light that is reflected as luminosity from all green objects, and would see this luminosity as so much gray. A totally color1blind eye would see only shades of gray, from almost pure white to pure black.
 This is to some extent the way 8 photograph shows landscape, and the gradations of light and shade are the degree of surface reflection of each color, independent of its color waves. Yellow is very luminous and shows comparatively white in the photograph Violet is very slightly luminous, and appears very dark in the photograph. The eye that is color-blind in green, if 1t beheld a yellow green, would see the yellow with the admixture of gray represented in the luminosity of the green, making dirty yellow. Green would be shown in photograph by a gray that is about half way between black and white. Violet blue and blue ! green rest the brain, while the other colors tend to irritate it. The latter overestimulate, and soon act as a whip on the tired nerves. So in music, 1t takes long time to weary of the violoncello, but a Scotch bagpipe is enjoyed longest when on the other side of the valley.-Century.

Lincoln Savings and Trust Company in
 Trouble-Claims to be Solvent.
 Philadelphia, April 1O.-The Lincoln Savings and Trust company, one of the small financial institutions Of Philadel- phia, suspended business to-day by or der of John A. Berkey, state commits sioner of banking, on the ground that the capital of the company is impaired.

 James I. Comfy, the president of the company, is in Harrisburg to-day in conference with Commissioner Berkey, and in his absence Henry F. Stitzell, the treasurer, said: This company is absolutely solvent, and there is not a possibility of any creditor of the insti- tuition not being paid in full"
 MT Stitzell said that the matter of a possible impairment of capital is a question of opinion. In the Judgment ] of the officers, he added, the capital is

 Justice Fitzgerald supplemented his charge by again clearly defining the legal definition of reasonable doubt and saying no man should vote for a yer diet so long as a reasonable doubt eX- isted in his mind. He did this by re- quest of Mir Jerome. The defense also requested a special charge on several points, but Justice Fitzgerald said that he had practically dwelt on all of them with the exception of few upon which he declined to say anything. He grant ed the defense an exception to his rul- ing. The jury then retired at 5.l5 p. m

AMENDED BANKING BILL.
To be Reported by the Committee To-
 day.

Hartford, April 10.-The committee on banks tomorrow will report a substi-
 ute bill on the act concerning deposits Tor savings in corporations other than savings banks, and the bill as amend ed will reveal the fatal aspect alluded
 to by Representative Banks when he asked for a recommittal of the bill in
 the house last week. This move to put in the amendment to the bill was de- cded upon after an all-night confer enee in local hotel Tuesday, at which were several members of the committee and Representative Lattimer. Repre- sentative Lattimer was the one who discovered tlle flaw in the bill, and it will be seen that if the original bill had passed the monies of depositors in trust companies could be invested without restriction and in the event of trust company failure there would be no re-
 dress for deposltors. In the bill as
 amended the depositors are protected.
 It is agreed that Representative Hook CT, the house chairman of the commit ltee, will acknowledge the error and that Leader Banks will also be heard. Sec ton 1 of the bill as amended, and which will be up In the house tomorrow, reads as follows
 "All banks and trust companies maitainig a savings department, or so- heiting or receiving deposits as saw
 ings, shall invest all such deposits here
 after so received according to the re-
 quirements of the statute laws of this
 state concerning the investment of de-
 posts in savings banks, and said in- yestments shall be for the exclusive protection of the depositors in said sav- ings department and shall not be liable for or used to pay any other obliga- tions or liability of said bank or trust
 company until after the payment in full of all the deposits in said savings department"

 T have not one particle of dogma tism nor any mere pride of personal opinion in pressing this matter, but the publicity already given to my speech commits me to it so far that cannot encourage or in consistency suppress that part of my speech around which the whole revolves.
 T recognize the full right of the con- mittee, when they have secured from Iunreleased copies of my speech the trend of my remarks, to express ap- proval or disapproval of the utterance, and since I am the guest of the com nittee tonight, I must yield full obed- fence to their wishes in the matter. It Is my misfortune to have misconstrued the occasion, as find Bryan ratifi- cation meeting where l came to attend free and serious party delberation.
 There seems nothing left me save withhold the speech from the Bryan banquet, although l cannot consistent | ly ask the newspapers to which it has already been given, to refrain from such use as they may see fit to make of it. "Of course, thls is only an individual conviction submitted to the judgment of my party I do not need to say that If MT Bryan shall be nominated in the wisdom of the democratic party as our next candidate for president, that I shall give him any whole hearted un- qualified assistance and support.
 T thank the committee most cordial ly for the courtesy of their invitation and regretting to find my self at vari- ance with that portion of the club who have charge of the program. most sincerely wish them joyous evening and profitable discussion of the great issues of importance to the party and people.
 Every sincerely,
 John Temple Graves
 In beginning his address Mir, Bryan paid his respects to MT. Graves and what he said He complmented MT. Graves in the highest manner for his honesty and his boldness, and said if there was any place in the world where absolute freedom of speech should pre- vail, 1t ought to be in a democratic gathering, He added that when he had heard that Mir Graves had retired from the hall because there might be doubts about the wisdom of what he had to say. he had sent for the Georgian ed- tor to return. and insisted that the speech should be delivered. Turning l directly to the sub1ecc of Mir Graves recommendation, Mir, Bryan said
 "As at present advised, I shall not present the name of Theodore Roose- welt to the national democratic con- | vention. Bear in mind, I say as at present advised9"
 Mir. Bryan eontended that if after mature consideration and reflection and the presentation of the arguments in the case, he should feel that hls duty lay in that direction, he would present Mir. Roosevelt's name, even though 1t should prove the last act of his life. He then went on to say that if any republican was to be selected by the democrats to head their nationa, ticket, the man should be Senator La Toilette of Wisconsin. Mr. Bryan then preceded with his speech, presenting reasons why, in his opinion, MT. Roose. welt was not the proper man for the presidency

It is such doubt as a painstaking man might have after a full fair and impartial weighing of evidence. To all such doubts the defendant is entitled.
 If any of you have a reasonable doubt that this defendant is guilty of murder in the first degree, but you have no doubt that he is guilty of murder in the second degree, you may find in the second degree. And so with manslaugh- ter. In all your deliberations the de- fendant is entitled to the benefit of every reasonable doubt.
 "You may in this case, let me say once more, find the defendant guilty of murder in the first degree, guilty of murder in the second degree, or guilty of manslaughter in the first degree.
 If you vote for acquittal on the ground of insanity you may state that ground in your verdict.
 You must be guided, gentlemen, en- tirely on the evidence. Clamor. preju- dice or sympathy must not avail. You must be guided by your reason and your judgment.
 "The case has been fairly tried and have not attempted to make any cpl tome of the evidence. If in any allusion I have made to the facts my statement does not agree with your recollection you should take your own recollection.
 "It is the duty of each juror to con- sider the evidence, all the pertinent statements of counsel and the sugges- tions of your fellow jurors.
 q have endeavored to faithfully guard the rights of the defelant as we'll as the rights of the people in the many rulings have had to make, and have tried with clearness and fair ness to instruct you in the law.
