LINCOLN SCHOOL NOTES.

On Monday and Tuesday mornings

deeply interested.
Miss Iennox and Miss Slough spent

The beautiful weather brings with it
a call to the woods which many of us
are answering by going to Rothschild.
Miss Cliff and her pupils enjoyed a
happy afternoon 10 that park on Mon
day, and Miss Killam and Miss Ellis, as
well as their pupils, are earnestly hop
ing that the weather Elan will be kind

entertainment COURSE.

The entertainment committee of the
Y. M. e. A. has selected list of attrac-
tons for the next course and Judging
from the reputation of some of them
the course of 190S-09 will be the strong
est ever offered. 1t is as follows:
The Oritorio Artists two men, three
ladies' musical number.
Geo. r. Vending, lecturer. Mr..
Vending has many subjects on modern
doubt and history. He has proved a
strong number at the large chatauqua
assemblies.
Gov. j. Frank Hanley of Indiana,
lecture Mr.. Hanley's lecture The
Patriotism of Peace" has won for him
favorable criticism wherever delivered.
The Dunbar Co., bell ringers and
monologue artists. This company APP
peared here last winter as the opening
number of last seasons course and
proved so strong that it has been re-
engaged. Many were of the opinion
that it was the strongest number which
the Y has had on its list in several
years.
Elias and Oranne Truitt Day, the
former an impersonator and character
sketch artist, the latter a reader.
Many of our readers will remember
Elias Day as he appeared here nearly a
dozen years ago. They will remember
his proficiency in the art of making up
and initiating any nationality and his
comical stories. He made more friends
than any single entertainer who ever
appeared before a Wausau audience.
Since then he has been tied up in the
matrimonial harness and is now as
sisted in his entertainments by his bet
ter two-thirds, a lady who made a
reputation as reader before her mar
riage.
These numbers were engaged from
three bureaus, the Slayton, the Mutual
and the Fred Pelham.
The course for the coming season
looks stronger than any ever before
offered by the Y 1t is also varied-two
musical, two lectures and the mixture
to be given by .he Days.

Bryan 20 the Bankers.

Mr.. Bryan made some palpable hits in
his address at the banquet of the Chi
cago Bankers club last Friday.
To the hasty view it might seem rather
astounding that Mr.. Bryan should be the
guest of honor and chief speaker at such
gathering.
But it must be considered % that this
radical theorist is in fact an extremely
keen business man who has amassed
much property and wouldsbe conserva-
tive enough against any contiscatory
radicalism that might seriously menace
property rights, and (2) that when the
panic was on last fall Mr.. Bryan greatly
TO his credit repeatedly proclaimed the
general trustworthiness of the banks,
and Loyalty used his great influence with
the masses in counseling faith in the
banks
By those words of sense and reassur-
ance at time when popular distrust
verged on panic, and when restored con-
fidence was the paramount need of the
hour, Mr. Bryan did public service.
These bankers owed Mr. Bryan a good
turn for his honest services to the forces
of sense and sanity in panic times last
year.
Mr.. Bryan's practical suggestions for
the reform of banking are interesting.
We note that his demand for the sharp
medicine of jail sentence for bank Of
ficials who break the law against excess
sive loans to one individual was not rap
turously received.
But it caused some thinking.
Bankers" like Walsh, Heinze and
the rest, who use their banks as
hoppers to feed depositors' money in
to their own private ventures and specu-
lations (let us say, gambles), are going
to be up against something drastic IN
the shape of penal statute with iron
teeth in it in the not remote future, I'M
less things mend of themselves. There
are not many of them. There are CON-
paratively very few of them. MIR. Bryan
himself testified to that when be bore
energetic witness to the general sound
ness of bank management last fall
Mr.. Bryan, one is glad to note, wants
an emergency currency.
Let it be added right here that those
republicans in congress who are dead
locking emergency currency legislation
aud thereby disappointing and provok
ing the country, are obliging Mr.. Bryan
with an issue and charge of dawdling
and futility which he is evidently pre-
pairing to exploit.-Milwaukee Sentinel.

seat last week as one of the members of

board, as he is one of those men who
will not let the county be held up.
Miss Marie Chaignot was home from
her school in the town CT Easton, Sun
day, and says her school will close

Plenty OF freight Cars.

10. Knapp, manager of the Wisconsin
car association, and newly elected presi-
dent of the National Association of Car
Service, returned to Milwaukee yester-
day from Chicago, where the National
associations convention was held.
From statistics gathered in the Office
of Mr. Knapp, there are 413. sos idle cars
in the United States and 1000 IDLE loco
motives, representing total capital of
$4,000, 900 paying no returns. The num-
Der OF cars is an increase of 81, 1876 with
10 the last sixty days. The box car
surplus, however. is still 1893 below the
maximum for this class reached IAN. 8,
1908
Mr.. Knapp figured out yesterday that
this number of idle cars, if strung out
in one line would stretch 1874 miles,
aggregating nearly half the distance
across the continent
Mr. Knapp said that there are approx
mately II, 900 engines loaded up 10 pre-
vent rusting at this time Whereas a
year ago railroad companies as well as
shippers were crying for more motive
power and cars.
The maximum figure is net yet
reached in the opinion of Mr.. Knapp,
who believes that until there is more
confidence among the people the num-
Der will grow daily.
This condition will last probably
until after election, when the future
policy of government is known he said
yesterday.
The S58, 5000, 900 dead capital is repre-
sented in the 413, sos idle cars, valued II
81 900 each, and the 10000 locomotives
representing value of Sl5, 900 each.
During October, 1907, the railroads
We're short approximately $1,000 cars,
whereas the surplus now is nearly half
a,million.
Mr. Knapp said yesterday that the
principal business transacted at the
National Association of car service
meeting in Chicago was the attempt on
part of the members to adapt them
selves to the rulings of the state railroad
commissions.-Mi Free Press.
