curled and pinch her cheeks to get
the proper glow.
"If he doesn't mean business she
wonders, why doesn't he move on
and let Joe Smith have a chance?"
Joe isn't as good a prospect as
George; still, he will do in case
George can't be made to speak. But
George continues to hold down the
claim.
Maude tried many ways Of induc-

Simple as the dear girl looked in her

GREAT UNION MEETING.
Enthusiastic Gathering OF Farmers Union
AT Memphis Last Week.

Cooperative Union held meet
ing at Memphis last week, last
ing several days, which was at
tended by delegates from all over
the Southern states. Thousands
of delegates were in attendance,
and the meeting was one Of the
largest of the kind ever held.
Seven important demands were
made by this convention, as
needs for the farmers, as follows:
/: A law by which all money
shall be issued by and under the
direct control of the government
and all citizens with land coll
lateral shall at all times have the
privilege Of borrowing money at
not to exceed 5 per cent per
annum,
2: The immediate issuance Of
not less than $500,000,000 Of
legal tender treasury notes and
the lending Of the same, together
with any surplus chat may be
in the United States treasury,
directly to the people to aid them
in marketing the present cotton
crop.
3: The passage Of a law by
Congress prohibiting the buying
and selling of cotton futures and
all other farm products, or
gambling in agricultural pro-
ducts, in any manner.
A: The immediate action Of the
government in keeping out Of the
country the great influx Of
foreigners that are continually
streaming into the farming dis
tricts Of the United States. Every
Union member is requested to
write to his,member Of Congress
asking for this lie egislation.
5: The establishment Of a
postal savings bank system as a
means OF keeping money at home,
aiding circulation and guarantee
ing for the farmers u safe de-
pository.
6: That Congress extend the
parcels post, increasing tho mum"
Der of pounds to be carried in the
mails from four to eleven and
reduction in postage from 16
cents to II cents per pound.
Z: The establishment Of q
parcel post system on the mail
delivery routes, carrying
special rate to be charged on
packages originating on rural
routes, the rates to be 5 cents for
the first pound, 2 cents for each
additional pound up to eleven
pounds.
AT this meeting it was decided
that the Union build two factor
les for the manufacture Of cotton
bagging, sacks and other wrap
ping material. One Of the factor
les will be established west Of the
Mississippi river, and the other
east OF this river, and they must
positively be up and in operation
by next May 5. The purpose Of
the establishment Of these fac
tories is to enable all cotton
and other farm products TO be
manufactured into material by
the Unions factories, thereby
saving the farmer a great deal Of
expense, This plan will also
enable the farmer to have all his
low-grade cotton utilized at homo
with more profit than he now re-
ooives for his low.grade staple,
One delegate from each state in
the cotton belt will be appointed,
and these will compose a board
Of directors, whose duty it shall
be to raise funds for The erection
Of these factories, II Is left with
this board Of directors where tho
factories shall be built.

times are good they borrow all the money
they can, and bet on the future. Before
the war much Of their business was, done
and credit, but conditions were then COM
paratively fixed and they could rely on
meeting their bills. AS long as the strug-
gle continued England's purse strings were
opened and money flowed like water. Bust
ness was doomed to correspond with the
new conditions. Many buildings were
erected in all the cities, and especially In
Cape Town, Durham and Johannesburg.
New ships were brought into the carrying
trade, new institutions of all kinds Gre
ated and wages and expenses already high,
were enormously increased. Then the war
ended and the soldiers left. The money
flood was succeeded by a money drouth,
and the creditors began to ask for the
payment of bills. This caused failures in
all departments of trade, the tide of immi-
grafton turned the other way and thou
sands were thrown out of work. At the
same time stores and houses became va
cant, the prices of property began to drop,
and the competition for tenants brought
down the rents.
This situation has almost steadily con-
tinued since the war and the country is
now getting down to a hardpan basis. 1t
will probably improve later on, but just
now its condition is bad.

OF that port within the last twelve months.
and this has become one of the great
water gates Of the world.
The harbor looks small from the top Of
the mountain, but 1t has more than two
miles of quays. which can accommodate
vessels drawing thirty feet. IT is sheltered
by a break-water $500 feet long, and its
larger division, Victoria basin, covers
thirty-six acres. Looking along the quays
you can see the electric cranes, and back of
them the warehouses, which can store
10000 tons of cargo at one time. and at the
reservoirs, which hold mountains of coal.
Among the ships are boats from East
and West Africa, from London and Ham
burg, and great liners on their way to
Australia and India. There are the mail
steamers of the Union Castle company,
which carry not only passengers, and ex-
press, but the vast treasures which are
always flowing out of the diamond ant
gold mines of this great vault.

months after he saw and fell in love with
her photograph. published in . st. Louis
paper.
Soon after the Salmon bank went into tho
hands OF a receiver. Miss Stephens picture
appeared among a group of Clinton glrh
whose savings were gone.
Miss Stephens, the story went. had saved
money to complete her education in college.
Young Sannebeck saw the picture and
showed It to his friends.
They agreed to write to the girls, Same
beck choosing Miss Stephens as the one &c
whom he would address his letter. He
waited in vain for an answer. but half a
year later became acquainted with her
father when the two were registered at the
same st. Louis hotel. Sannebeck was then
travelling for a meat house.
His business later took him to Clinton
where he renewed his acquaintance with
Miss Stephens father and through him met

south Africa.s Big Banks.

Banking here is not the same as in the
United States. With us every little town
has its individual bank, and there are
hundreds of small institutions operating
with capitals of $4,000 and upwards. Here
all the money is handled by a half dozen
great banks. with branches reaching to
all parts of South Africa. These big banks
report to each other and, although COM
work largely in harmony. If a
mans credit is bad it soon becomes gen.
orally known, and If one bank drops him
he has little hopes from the others.
IS to the extent Of the banking. ! nave
before me some reports OF the big Institu-
lions. The STANDARD Bank of South Africa
is now doing a business of something like
$780, 600 per annum, on a capital of less
than 100000, 1t has about S1CO, OOO,O 900
worth Of deposits, and its profits are $500
and upwards per year. During a great part
of It's experience it has paid as much as
Is per cent, and 1t is now paying IS, not
outstanding the hard times.
Another big institution is the Bank Of
Africa, which has a capital Of 5000. coo.
This bank has deposits of $50, OO0.OOO or $685.
100000, and its assets and liabilities are
about $5O,OC 900. 1t has been paying 10 per
cent until recently, when the dividends were
cut to 10 per cent, with a prospect OF going
down still lower TIL Natal bank, which
does business chiefly in Natal and the
Transvaal. has a capital of only $500, 900,
but its deposits amount to something like
$4,000, 900 or $40, 900. 900. and it pays about
~ DER cent.
The National Ban Of South Africa, with
a capital Of over 5000, coo, has deposits of
$Ss, 900, 900 and pays s per cent, while the
African Banking corporation has running
accounts of from S20,O0o.O 900 to SIS ,O00.O on
a capital OF 100000. and pays 8 per cent
dividends, Nearly all OF these banks have
had a considerable reduction of deposits
during the last two years, and their stocks
have fallen IN value.

town streets, each making twenty stops.
The cars Travelled the route in opposite
directions. owing to the traffic on such
streets as fremont, Washington and others
selected high-speed was out of the ques-
tlon so the decision rested largely upon
quickness in unloading and loading passen-
gers and stopping and starting the car.
Each machine carried passengers, who dis
mounted at the prescribed stops.
The electric car made the trip in one
hour and one minute. and finished at the
Studebaker branch thirteen minutes be-
fore the gasoline car put in an appearance.
The route was through Boylston, fremont,
School, Washington, Summer land High
streets, Atlantic venue, Summer. Bedford
Washington, Boylston streets, Dartmouth
street, Huntington and Massachusetts, ave-
nues to Boylston street. The quickness
with which the electric car could be stopped
and the ease with which 1t wound It's way
among the other vehicles was a surprise to
the passengers. The gasoline car made the
stops easily and quickly, but could not get
away and thread through the traffic as
rapidly as the electric. Even on the COM
paratively clear stretches the gasoline car
had little the better of the electric.

The Santa Fe railroad Of southern Cali
fornia, says Harper's Weekly, has in
stalled a new automatic train dispatcher
over eighteen miles OF road with success
full results. II Is expected that this will
bring about a revolution in the present
methods OF train dispatohing. BY means
OF this invention the train dispatcher and
the engineer in his cab are in immediate
communication, and orders to proceed or
to stop can reach the latter at any tima
desired. The exact time a train entert or
leaves a block on his division 10 recorded
ON the train sheet in the diGpatcher's Of
flee. Errors in running orders, often the
cause Of fatal accidents, are obviated by
the automatic interloeking of switches
after a signal has been set and the dis
pateher cannot order a train to proceed
unless the block ahead is clear, though he
may stop any train when this is needed.
The locomotive engineer is warned by =
danger signal given by the dispatcher or
by the presence Of a train. broken rail or
open switch in the block, and II the sngi-
neer fails to reduce his speed to less than
five miles an hour, or whatever rate has
been determined In the regulations. In the
next 1000 feet travelled, his train is stopped
by a mechanical device. This automatic
stop can only be prevented by slowing
down the train TO the safe rate Of speed.
Mechanism on the locomotive records the
time and place where a danger signal has
been given, the time the signal clears the
track and when the engineer responds "a

Plans for completed identification Of the
Pennsylvania railroad terminals in New
York were announced last week with the
signing OF a S.0OO.OOo contract for the work
with the Westinghouse Electric and Manu-
featuring company. This followed an I'M
portant meeting OF the Pennsylvania d.
rectory In Philadelphia,
The contract is for the Identification Of
the entire Pennsylvania system from HAr-
rison, ~. j., to Jamaica, L. 1. While the
initial amount OF apparatus will aggregate
sS,ooo,ooe, this Is said by no means 20 repre-
sent the full amount.
The system Of trolley will probably be
overhead and not the so-ealled third rail
system. The engines 10 be used win be
entirely OF a new type and the most power
full IN existence. They viii resemble closely
the steam locomotive now In use and not
the type OF short locomotive on the New
Haven road.
