GRAD NLATICNAZI BANK PHZLN1lELPE1q. ONCTE
The HC1LE OF HEST JcC 5AlEk.~1S

powerful adversary IL the bank was
to remain a part of the nations finan.
cial system. -..
The clash between the two strong
men was precipitated when Biddle
refused at Jackson's request to re-
move Jeremiah Mason, a friend of
Daniel Webstsr, from the presidency
of the branch bank at Portsmouth, N.
H. "Old HickGry's" ire was aroused
and his hatred or Biddle and the bank
assumed the most implacable form.
Finally he vetoed bills to recharter
the bank at the expiration of its life
in 1886. He withdrew the government
deposits and put them in state banks,
regardless of the distress in financial
and business circles, which his course
induced.
Biddle on his side was by nature
somewhat formal and ceremonious in
his manner, and made little vain of
his position because of the Difference
which had so long been paid him or
account of his financial power, neither
at first nor afterward offered to abate
anything in the struggle.
While he overrated his power, he
was not to be outdone, and applied for
and secured charter at Harrisburg.
Thus, when the national grant ex!
pired, the doors continued to open
each morning as of yore under the
name of the Bank of the United States
of Pennsylvania.
So we'll did Biddle manage that he
weathered a storm of suits against
him and carried the bank through the
panic of 1887. When he retired from
the presidency in 1889, the banks
shares were selling at Sill.
But trouble followed in 1871, as q
result of disturbances of that year,
and in 1S43 the shares were worth
only two dollars. The eventual fail
ure of the pet financial scheme affect
ed Biddle so keenly that he died in
1874, virtually of broken heart.
And now with the necessity of some
kind of financial legislation, one OF
the pet schemes advocated by the cur
rency system reformers is this federal
bank idea, scheme for great cen
trail institution, something like the
Bank of England, through which the
affairs of the government may be
transacted and relief accorded the
money market in times of stress. 1t
is to be a sort of financial lifesaving
station.
Various lawmakers view the plan in
various ways. Some are enthusiastic
over it, some are willing to debate
the scheme, while others dismiss it
absolutely.

There was some delay, and Mr.. AL

increased as to draw the remainder
of the family to the scene Of action.
They found young Albertson and
the monkey circling rapidly about the
room, doing wild west stunt, the
monkey a trifle in the lead, while be-
hind him came Mr.. Albertson hurting
the family clothes line temporarily
converted into lasso.
The monkey instead of the son be-
ing the pursued, the family joined in
the chase, and though all agreed that
the lariat throwing Of Mr.. Albertson
was excellent, it took some time to
capture the brute, for as fast as the
clothes line whizzed around his neck
the monkey raised an agile paw and
when he mounted a shelf In the
clothes closet, and in an unguarded
moment allowed the moose to tighten.
From the time of his Introduction
to the household there had never
been a minute when the monkey was
not busy. He made himself one of
the family and helped himself to the
delicacies of the table when no one
was looking. He slid down the cellar
door and swung on the screen door,
his abode being the screened-in back
porch, with sleeping apartments in
the basement. He ate fruits, pies
and jellies, and, being fastidious and
unprovided with a napkin, wiped his
face on his hands and his hands on
the screens.
But his doom was sealed so far as
his new home was concerned when
he began to hurl cups and saucers
of Haviland china at the children.
This showed a lack of discrimination
that was not to be endured. Had the
animal chosen tinware he probably
would have been basking in the com.
forts of the Albertson home to-day.
But his tastes were too expensive.

bands Office, where there was door
connecting with the bedroom in front
of which we had placed a heavy ward

looking man, and he held the revolver

nor I were at all nervous people, and
when we could find nothing to ex-
plain what had occurred we decided
that it must have been imagination,
and that our being in strong sympathy

Remarkable Dress.

At a ball in Bermuda a wonderful
dress was worn, and in the making OF
it over 10000 stamps were used. Years
were spent in collecting the stamps,
and three weeks in the making of the
dress, which was of the finest muslin.
The woman called upon her friends to
help her, and the dress was covered
with the stamps of all nations. On the
front Of the bodice was an eagle made
entirely of brown Columbian stamps.
Suspended from the birds talons was
a globe made of old blue revenue
stamps. On each side of the globe was
an American flag having stripes of red
and blue stamps. On the back of the
bodice was a collection of foreign
stamps in the form of a shield, in
the center of which was portrait cut
from old revenue stamps. A picture
hat covered with red and blue stamps
was worn with this remarkable dress.

A bit of tempest has been stirred
UP over the Jimmy Casey deal. Presi-
dent Ebbets said that the Toronto
club took an unfair method of starting
negotiations by approaching Casey
first, and, by offering him better sal
airy than he was getting here, making
him dissatisfied with his berth here
and DESTROYS to go to the Canucks.
When Ebbets was finally approached
he says he had nobody to take Casey's
place, and therefore asked $4,000 and
Mckinley, not $4,000, as the Canadians
claim, for the little captain. At the
time Pittsburg wanted Mcintyre for
Sheehan, but Ebbets refused to weak.
en- his pitching staff. When Sheehan
was purchased Ebbets could afford to
get along without Casey, and reduced
his demand to $1,000 and Mckinley.
It was then found that Mckinley was
considered a good pitcher, SO the
money consideration was reduced to
81 1000 and Mckinley, with the proviso
that the latter remain with Toronto
another year. Here the matter stands,
but Ebbets is bit displeased over the
attempt to make Casey dissatisfied,
and says it was underhand tactics
such as baseball should not tolerate,
