FickIeness In Penmanship.

Speaking of check signatures and forgery, a downtown paying teller re- marked: "One of the most peculiar points in our business is one little com prehended by the public. I mean the embarrassment caused by the man whose signature is seldom the same. or nearly so. two weeks in succession.
 ''This fickleness is not intentional. It is in almost every case temperament tai. The man guilty of it is generally nervous and not infrequently is greatly lacking in stability of character. At times you, as layman, would hardly believe 1t possible that his signature on two different checks was the work of the same hand.
 "Of course we come to know these cases in time. and there are always certain characteristics in a persons handwriting which the expert can de feet and which go far to convince. Nevertheless the changeable signature is a nuisance and involves an added perils-New York Globa

 For Twenty Four Hours.

Boston, Oct 10.-Manuel Silvia of Peabody, 10 years old, prisoner in a dark closet on the top floor of a school house over night and till the next afternoon, cried and screamed in vain for release as volunteer par ties searched the town for him.

It was only by acci- dent that he was discovered twenty four hours later.
 While the boy suffered all the tor lures that a child can experience, left alone in the dark in a deserted building, the teacher was acting as bridesmaid at wedding.

Republican Treasurer Wants $50 Each From 10000 Business Man.
 New York, Oct 10.-An appeal for contributions to the republican national campaign fund of $50 each from 10000 business men was is sued yesterday by George R. Shel- don, treasurer of the republican na- tional committee. The appeal reads as follows:
 The legitimate expenses of the republican national campaign are necessarily large. Under the law, corporations may not contribute, and we therefore ask individuals 10 contribute more generally.
 Many would-be contributors are deterred from subscription lest the amount, when published, be the sub- ject of comment as being too small, or, other hand, too large.
 T have therefore determined to ask uniform contribution of $50 from, say 10000 business men, 70 vitally concerned in the continuance of republican principles.
 "I hope you will place yourself on this roll and send me your check for which an official receipt will be sent you"

 Completed in Six Years.

SohPhStSa sAA N'AF> - AS'
 New York, Oct 10.-In speech before the Fire Underwriters asso- citation of the Northwest at Chicago yesterday Congressman James A. Tawney declared that the Panama canal would be open in six years af- ter an expenditure of $256, 6,000,0OO for it's construction.

 Colonel George w. Goethals, chief engineer of the Panama canal, who is here attending the hearing O. charges preferred against him by a disappointed contractor, read MT Tawney's remarks yesterday with a nod of approval and said that he had maintained for some time that the canal would be completed in six years. He even set specific date January l, 1915-declaring
 We certainly expect to finish the work then if n9 unforeseen con- tingency arises. That has been my expectation for considerable time. :"
