MOORE EXPLAINS WEATHER.
Tells Holy Cross Students How
Whirlpools Affect Conditions,

Elemental Meteorology'' was the SUBJ
ject discussed by Prof. Willis Moore, chief
of the weather bureau. atsthe Holy Cross
Academy Monday night.
He compared the movements of the air
to the maelstroms and vortexes of the sea,
and said that both are essentially ver-
tical in effect and cause rapid changes in
temperature.
He slid that when a whirlpool occurs at
sea the motion plunges great volume of
water from the surface to the bottom, and
that the surface water is warm and
strikes into an area of intense cold, caus-
ing new conditions in the vegetable life
below.

a three-day retreat at the academy this

Small Commercial Bank DeDoSitOrs

The savings banks, real and commer- cial, thrive on small deposit accounts, but the uptown commercial banks in New York city, it seems, do not, for they are now charging $1 a month oa demand deposit accounts which aver. age less than $200 They claim that such accounts are not profitable, and yet savings banks become great by ac- cepting small accounts and paying in- terest on them. The commercial banks pay no interest on small demand ac- counts, and yet they claim they yield no profits. This difference between commercial banks and savings banks is something the wayfarer cannot see and understand.
 It should, however, be remembered that banking trust has not yet been organized. There is plenty of compe- tition in the banking business, and if any bank throws out small accounts as being unproftable, other banks will seek such deposits and become the stronger because of them. The time has not come in this country when the small depositor can be deprived of banking accommodations.
 The rule adopted by the uptown banks in New York affects the pro. fessors and students of Columbia uni. versity, and they are striking back The chances are that the new rule will be abandoned even in New York.

A WoMANLY OCCUPATION.

l From the Washington Post. Seldom has any band of zealots given more determined proof of a militant spirit than that displayed by the English suf- fragettes in their efforts to force their way into the British House of Commons. They have been stoned by mobs, ridden down by the police, imprisoned, and thrown upon the spears of society with out avail. Ridicule has not conquered them nor persecution diminished their numbers.
 The courage displayed by these suffra- gettes in a land where the women have been famed by their poets for being mod est, like the violets hid on dewy downs" Is as admirable as their conduct is de- plorable and their cause vain. Woman can better display her devotion in other ways Imagine the following passage applying te those "graseful ladyes" whose gentleness of demeanor Spenser sunk in the "Faery Queene":
 The police had been instructed to avoid making arrests so far as possible, but because of the repeated and determined charges of the furious women it was im- possible to stop them by any other means. Consequently they began to remove the more determined of the attackers to the lookup. charging them with assaulting the police as they had used their fists and umbrellas.
 One of the most daring of the party was its standard bearer, who, bareheaded, for her hat lay in the muddy road, fought with such impetuosty as impelled a burst of cheering from the thousands of look ers-on.
 And all the foolish creatures wanted was to stand up in parliaments halls and scream Votes for women!' The report terrible women of the revolution fighting in the streets for bread.
 But by birth and education these atIda- cious brawlers are gentlewomen, not fish | wives of the Rue de St. Martin. Could | they not have found a better occupation to engage their powers? It is said of the
 only Japanese couple that has yet ap- piled to the city of New York for a mar riage license, that when the little bride to-be was required to state her occupa- ton she filled in the blank with the modest words, At home" Here Is an occupation which has fallen from grace among the fashionable And yet where could true, courageous wom- an find a career more beautiful and more helpful to the world? It is earnestly suggested to the zealous suffragettes of England and the United States that they take up the profession disowned by their fashionable sisters. They are daring
 women. strong and capable of filling 1t. and as a profession it is one not to be despised. At least. as time goes on, it
 is not likely to be so overcrowded as some others.

Deposits of 1886

On June 23, 1886, the treasury sur plus, chiefly on account of sales of pub lie lands, had become large and almost burdensome, and so Congress author ized the Secretary of the Treasury to deposit it with the various states. It was to have been paid over to the states in four installments, but when the third installments had been handed over Congress repealed the act. This was in 1889. All told $2S,101, ,644.91 was deposited with the-various states Alabama, then young state, got S669, 0S6.79. This money was deposited tc remain with the states until other wise directed by Congress"
 In order to aid in avoiding the levy. ing of an income tax bill has been presented in Congress recalling these deposits, and as the states that re- ceived none of it are more numerous than those that did 1t is confidently expected the bill will become a law next winter. Congressman Victor Mur. dock, a newspaper man of Kansas, is behind the bill, and he expects the sup port of the interests that are lined up in opposition to an income tax. The opponents of an income tax and the states that received none of the de posits of 1886 can pass the MurdocL bill, and they may do it.
