rate. The well-known French writer. M. Henry de Gailier. contributes to the cur rent issue of La Revue remarkable study on spending Money in Days of Tore"
 From stastic carefully complied, from private documents of one or two centuries ago. from letters and bills dating from those distant days. 1t appears that extra va8ance was far worse then.
 The greatest change in the matter of expenditure is that during the seven teenth and eighteents centuries men spent quite as much-if not more-as women for their own attire
 Today the average man spends consid- erably less than the average woman on clothes; and in the wealthy classes the difference is more marked still. since it was recently stated by a queen of fashion that while man could be quite elegant by spending 100 pounds a year on himself. woman needed 400 pounds month to dress stylishly.
 In the middle class, as in the aristoc- racy. 150 years ago more things were re- quired by a man. He wore night cuffs of money), his hats-he needed half dog en- pound each. He required silk stockings. wooden stockings and 'siSin" stockings. and five or six different kinds of boots.
 He had to spend several pounds a year at the barber's and wigmakers. The middie-ciass woman of those days man. aged to dress in cheaper way. though dress was the main expense.

 Arcadfa--this sweet sounding name. IS the cognomen adopted by young lady singer and violin player. She vocalizes like bird: her voice being very pleasing and with rare tech- nical skill she essays all that the most accomplished prima donna can do in nanciful vocal accomplishments. Arr cadia signifies a nymph from the land where that drink is nectar and food Of ambrosia flavor. Tn brief the young lady has an unexcelled musical and singing act which has been an agree able surprise wherever she has exhib- tied.
 Mir. and Mrs Frederick Bacon have been in vaudeville for many seasons. and are considered the greatest ex- ponents of the banjo. Mir. Bacon in- troduces the famous talking banJo. The words fairly pop from the strings and we seem to understand every word which they musically ut- ter. Other specialties are introduced, and among them may be mentioned the realistic limitations of the snare drum. The act closes with both MT. and Mrs. Bacon participating In various classical selections.
 With a musical comedy sketch. Rover and French seem to be particularly fitted for the part assigned them. It Is called Johns Visit" and the make up of the pair is sufficient alone to cause an overabundance of mirth. to say nothing of the bright lines. the comedy singing and the eccentric dancing. One particular song that the team sings Is Read the Answer in the Stars" and in this song they bring in various allusions to politics and local short comings, and naturally this cre- ates considerable interest and hilarity.
 William Lacey is comedy trick bi- cyclist and unicyclist, and has lately played the circuit of the big Chicago theatres; having just finished the Ma jestic Theatre in Chicago. He was literally applauded for his dexterity and bright comedy work in connection with 1t. He is described as the fellow that sings and waltzes on one wheel, and it is said that there is positively nothing like it on the American stage.
 While it is impossible to have every week such remarkable motion pictures like those of William Jennings Bryan in the great labor day parade which appeared here recently, still the pic- lures this week are guaranteed to be new, and to have been selected with special purpose of affording highclass entertainment.

Majestic Theatre.
 Manager Couch Is particularly pleas ed with the bill which he has to offer his patrons next week. One of the South's favorltes will head the offer ing. namely. Georgia Gardner and Company. These capable people made a tour of the Majestic circuit of the- atres two seasons ago. and they now return with entirely new sketches, and rom press reports they have succeed ed in getting playlet which has made favorable impressions. Arcadia IS the euphonious name adopted by a talent ed young woman with a beautiful voice, and who, moreover. Is an expert violin player. This act is warranted to be something in the nature of a mild sensation. In the musical com edy line, Rover and French will be the representatives. and Will Lacey as a comedy unicyclist. Mir. and Mrs. Frederick Bacon. who are conceded the greatest of banjo players. will intro- duce their talking banjo, and other specialties. The moving pictures are warranted to be entirely new, and the rendition of these will conclude a program of six acts that for variety and general excellence would be hard to surpass.
 Miss Gardner will be supported by Mir. William Friend and other capable assistants. The vehicle selected by this talented comedienne Is well suited to her peculiar style of acting. In fact - ;. play Is written to fit Miss Gardhes and 1t is said to do so most admirably. The plot of the story is that of a young. married couple who seem to have agreed to disagree. The young husband imagines that his wife does not possess qualities which he thinks he sees in other women, and he has been keeping a diary in which he jotted down the different styles of women whom he fancies he could have been happier with. He fancies that his wife lacks animation and vari- ous other qualities, which he feels that he would appreciate. All of these he jots down in his diary. and one day

EFFECT or PENNY POSTAGE.
In One Day so.ooe More Letters Go In the
 English Mail.

New York Times
 Working overtime the staff of the foreign branch of the postoffice and West and Morton streets managed yesterday morning to get off the heavy British mall. which marked the first day of the reduced rate of postage. About 90,0o0 more letters than usual were dispatched to Europe by the AmerIka, Baltic and La Provence. Of these a large proportion had undoubtedly been saved up to take advantage of the 2-cent rate. %,
 The first man to get letter posted for England for iass than cents Is said to have been J. W. Cusack, an Englishman. who is staying at the Hotel Buckingham He had just arrived from the Pacific coast and Mexico and determined to try for the honors of first place. He wrote letter to his brother in the Isle of Wight and hurried to the general postoffice. As mid night struck he handed in his letter and just forestailed J. L. Merkle of New Bright on. staten Island. who got second place.
 It was nearly o'clock before the first large batch of mall was handed ina Then one firm sent 30,000 letters. just before o'clock another house began to send m ies accumulation, and before o'clock 1t had posted 2o. 900 letters of an advertising char acter.
 Meanwhile all over the city at tho branch postoffices English letters were heinz crop ped until about 10000 were collected TO handle this flood arrangements hao been made by which there should be douole force at the foreign branch office all night The shift that came on at o'clock Wed- nesday afternoon and should have gone home at 2 yesterday morning was detain- ed until 5:s0. After midnight they had the assistance of the regular shift beginning woork at that hour and were relieved by the early morning force.
 The amount of work they accomplished may be measured by the fact that they sent away on time 1.2S3 sacks of mail on the Amerika, Baltic, and La Provence instead of 1,2ss sacks. which carried the mail week ago.

Bank Laws In Effort to Check Con.

Washington, June preparations
are being made by the treasury de-
partment for the prompt carrying into
effect of the various provisions of the
new currency law. A list of all ma
uonal banks arranged by states, show
ing the capital and surplus Of each, is
being prepared by the comptroller Of
the currency for use by the secretary's
Office in connection with any applica-
lions that may be received from banks
for the formation of national currency
associations provided for by the new
law.
7. P. Kane, deputy comptroller Of
the currency, in answer to an inquiry
as to what was being done toward pre-
ments to the national banking laws for
submission to the national monetary
commission, said this matter would be
taken up and carefully considered at
the proper time, but as yet nothing
had been done.
Act, Works Satisfactorily.
The national bank act has worked
satisfactorily and successfully, he
stated, and no radical change in the
laws is deemed necessary. There are
number of provisions, however,
which need amendment, SO as to make
their terms more explicit or definite,
correct Inconsistencies and ambigui-
ties which have crept into the statute
through amendments from time to
time and to supply additional pro-
visions necessary to meet new con-
ditions and changes in banking meth
DDS and practices which have de-
veloped since the present bank act
was adopted A years ago.
There are number of administra-
tive regulations of the comptroller's
Office in regard to the management of
banks and the conduct of their business
which, 1t is said, should have the force
of law, in order that the comptrol-
Ter may have the power to correct I'M
satisfactory conditions and dangerous
practices found to exist in banks
which, while not q violation of the
banking laws, Invariably lead to dis

Need New Bank Safeguards.
For a long time the comptroller's
Office has importuned congress to
make certain changes in the law
which would result in greater securi-
ty, especially to creditors of banks. 1t
has been represented that it is just as
essential to the safety of bank that
the discount of commercial paper and
bills Of exchange be kept within pre-
scribed limits as 1t is to restrict the
amount of loan that may be made to
