Banking Control.

Six banks in New York control the
stock market. They can elevate or de-
press prices at will. They can make
ready money one per cent or 800 per
cent. They have no computations of
conscience, because thye have no con-
science. Here's a bank with enormous
deposits. 1t pays no interest; but it's
president and directors speculate with
the money as If they owned it. Why
do people intrust their money to this
institution? What do they get out Of
it? If the bank fails the depositors are
ruined.-N. Y. Press.

1t was at the battle Of Monmouth
that Washington aroused the admira.

pungent and suphurous EXPLANATIONS
from the father of his country. "Yes,

delightful! Never have enjoyed such

Boston has number of different
kinds of faith healing, the newest be-
ing the musical healing service. Rev.
Clara A. Strong is originator of the
idea and holds meetings where the
power of song is said to effect cures.
One feature of the service is the perfect
silence that pravails in one part: Heal
ing the absent by the power of thought
is another of the beliefs of the new
faith.
There is much rivalry between Judges
Rosalsky and O'Sullivan of the general
sessions in New York and last week it
looked as if O'Sullivan had the laugh
on his rival for all time. He had a
man before him whose name was
Rosalsky, but who Swore that he was
an Irishman. But Friday thugs were
evened up when II man named Flynn
was brought before Judge Rosalsky and
swore that he was Jew.
A petition is being circulated for the
pardon of Chris Scott, who killed a man
named Juidici at Bullion over u year
ago. He was tried for the crime and
convicted of murder in the second
degree. His only defense was that he
was drunk at the time he killed Juidici
and knew nothing about it, Judge
Brown was merciful and did not give
him the full extent of the law. 1t seems
to the writer that Scott has not been
punished sufficiently for his crime.
Many Lose VaIuables at Washington
Pilgrims from the cities and the farms
by the thousands stroll through the
capitol every session and the mementos
they leave behind would make a fair
start for a museum. Whether it is
awe that overcomes them in finding
themselves under Uncle Sans own
roof or dizziness caused by watching
the wheels of Congress go around the
fact stands that many lose not only
themselves in the labyrinth of corridors
but they become separated from a wide
range of personal property.
These stray articles are gathered up
by the Capitol police and held for the
owners. About So per cent are restored
to nervous people who hustle into Cap
tain McGrew's Office with stories of their
losses and the unclaimed are given to
the finders.
A few articles left behind by visitors
under the influence of the tariff debate
were: A pair of trousers, a boys sled,
two life insurance policies, one coat,
vest and hat, typewriter, a pedlers
badge, a gold watch, four handbags,
ten pocket books, one shawl, fifteen
pairs Of ladies gloves, four pairs of mems
gloves, one hat pin, three collar buttons,
one silver buckle, six wells, fur neck

USEFUL DESERT PLANT.


sotoI, Once Thought worthless.
Found to BE FUN of Alcohol
Another Wild desert plant that grows
profusely upon many millions OF acres
OF land In tho mountainous region Of
western Texas now is being used as a
profitable source OF revenue, says the
Kansas City Star 1t Is the sotol,
which is said TO be found in no other
part OF the United States. 1t Is OF
quick, sturdy growth. 1t long has been
known that alcohol could be made from
this plant, but It is only within the last
few months that steps have been taker
10 utilize this knowledge In CONNER
cfal way by the manufacture Of dena-
tured alcohol from the large bulb which
forms part Of the growth. This buib
Is situated Just above the ground and
frequently is a foot ia diameter. The
percentage Of alcohol which 1t contains
is said TO be larger than In any other
known product.
II was not until In the last session Of
Congress that authority was granted
for the manufacture of denatured alco-
hol from the sotol plant AS result
Of this Federal permission, a sotol dis
tlllery has been established at FL Paso
and large shipments Of the sotol bulb
are being made from the Alpine section
to that place for conversion into the
denatured product.
When the early Spanish explorers
first penetrated the region along the
Rio Grande River below Alpine, more
than two centuries ago, they found that
the Pueblo and other Indian tribes had
a knowledge Of the alcoholic properties
OF the sotol plant Primitive stills were
In operation from which fiery white
liquor was obtained The Indians were
wont to indulge freely In this native
lntoxicant The sotol liquor still is a.
fayorite beverage among the MexicaHsI
OF the border. The American cowboy
OF this region has an intimate knowl-
edge Of the lighting qualities of this
liquor. 1t is one of the phases of mi
tlation which the tenderroot is always
put through upon the border ranches
'The main objection to the stuff is
that you've got to run mile to get
your breath after you have taken a
drink Of It," said cowboy the other
