Under the new currency law banks
in which funds of the government are
deposited must hereafter pay interest
for use of such funds. An exception
is made in the case of those banking
associations deslgnted as national de-
positories, in which funds are placed
strictly for the use of the govern
ment's own expenses. There is out
standing about S72. 600, 900 of govern
ment funds on which interest must be
paid by banks, and by an odd COIN
cidence a similar amount rests in
repositories not subject to the tax.
The rate of interest chargeable is to
be not less than 1per cent and as
much more as the secretary of the
treasury may deem proper.
Definite announcement that Presi-
dent Roosevelt and his son Kermit
would leave New York for Cairo in
April. 1909. for an extended African
hunting trip has been made. Poll
ticians Immediately began discussing
Mr.. Roosevelt's plans with relation to
their bearing on the third-term pos
sibility. 1t was the general verdict
that the Presidents coming trip was
the strongest kind of an indication
that he rigidly adheres to his determi-
nation not to accept third term
nomination under any circumstances.
The story that Mr.. Roosevelt was to
leave the country at the conclusion Of
his term of Office has been printed be-
fore. Now more definite confirmation
OF it comes. 1t is positively stated
that Mr.. Roosevelt and his son will
leave in April. 1909. as soon as the
necessary arrangements for the de-
parture could be made after the 4th of
March. The President hopes to bring
back from the African forests speci-
mems of every species of big game to
be had there. Correspondence in rela-
tion to getting the outfit in Africa
already is under way. The exact size
of the hunting party, number of
guides, retainers and animals has not
been decided. The President will
take with hir, an assortment of guns
which he will requirs.
Among the many interesting stories
Of Rryan's trip around the world is a
.a. ing little anecdote illustrating
his constant thoughtfulness of his
friends back in Normal. Johnny
Coles is a motorman on the trolley
line at the foot of the hill, says the
July Delineator. Ask him if he
knows Mr.. Bryan. It is with Deep
chested pride that he answers, ivy,
sure. I've been to Mr.. Bryan's 'ouse
many a time. Often 'e's said to me.
WY. Johnny, I'M glad to see you.
Come any time. an the door won be
locked, an you just walk right in.
'E's that common. Mr.. Bryan is. an
'e's the fine gentleman. too. as ever
lived. Wy. ma'am, very earnest
Iv.-"Mr. Bryan e brought me a
plum puddin' from h'England II
was when Johnny Coles had heard OF
the intended trip abroad. that he said
to Mr.. Bryan, riding on his car one
day. IAN. would you be goin' to 'Old
h England, for that's me 'ome. and
maybe you'd rec me folks over there. "
So it happened that on his trip around
the world Mr.. Bryan turned asi de
from his itinerary to search out cot
tage in Oxfordshire. where he re-
oeived the plum pudding from the
hands of q white e-haired old woman
who sent it with her blessing to her
son in far-off America.

Paia, Maui, March IL, 1908.
We have made the trip to the era
ter of Haleakala.
To those who have climbed to this
summit of desolation and grandeur,
that sentence will be sufficient de-
scription of the trip, for they will
realize that any attempt at farther
description is almost presumptuons.
Those who have not been so fortu-
nate may expect something more, not
understanding that any word-paint-
ing can be but family descriptive of
the view one gets from the edge of
this mighty hole in the ground.
Six of us made the trip,-Governor
Frear, Land Commissioner Pratt, Pri-
vate Secretary Mcbride, Sub-Agent
Aiken and the correspondents of the
two evening papers. The rest for
one reason or another decided not to
make the attempt. The trip was rn

ed on a mysterious sea of vapor. La
mai lay like a long sand dune bathed
in the difrused glow. The mountains
of West Maui rose boldly above a
plain yet hidden under the yapoIs OF
the night. And the colorst in the
cast increased-7rvibrated-ich anged,
with Kaleidoscope swirtness.
And then suddenly there appeared
over the rim of the world a dazzling
segment of a circle Of molten gold
An instant we stared at 1t, and then
suddenly there shot Wbove the hori-
zon, us IL hurled up by giant hands
the great ball of the sun.
The clouds swimming far below
us were instantly metamorphosed in
to gardens of color. Their upper
surfaces, which were turned to us
glowed with every color of the rain
bow, every minutest drop of moist
ure acting as a prism through which
the rays of the sun passed and were
broken up into their component elc-
mental colors and reflected up to us.
And OF in the west the great, blue
shadow of the mountain itself was
cast on the darker sky.
As said before, no description can
give any idea of the reality, and to
one who has seen the sight himself
1t must appear presumptuous to at
tempt to describe It. II there are
any doubling Thomases, they had
better go themselves to Haleakala
and see,-see not only the sunrise
but the, immense valley OF desolation
that is the crater itself,-a hole nine
miles across and $500 feet deep.
After the sun was fairly up, Gov
ernor Frear and W. J. Cooper anus
ed themselves by rolling great stones
down the slope into the crater.
Meantime we got breakfast - coffee
and timed stun, with one of Aiken s
| pineapples.
About 10 o'clock we began the de-
scent, reaching Idlewilde again about
noon. Here wewere joined by Har-
ry Baldwin and'Von Tempsky, and
went on toward Makawao.
But Governor Frear came to Maui
to see land, and land he must see
before we reached house and bed

may be exchanged, and then down

to verify this, after which we climb

continued on to Makawao.

would be made that evening.
We left Makawao about . o'clock
in the evening and rode straight up
to ldlewilde. at an elevation of 1000
feet, which Mr.. Aiken uses as sort
of halfway house in his many trips
as guide to the crater. It was the
intention to spend the night there
and start up early in the morning.
So we dismounted and gathered about

But the moon was still about two

already pretty chilly and one or two
