The Stuff the Stars Are Made of.

Such astronomers as wish to inter-
est those luminous clouds out of
which Iaplace imagined that worlds
are made will be grateful for the vol
ume recently issued by the Lick OBJ
servatory. Before his death the late
James f. Keeler, at one time the di-
rector Of that institution, made the
discovery that the number Of nebulae
in the heavens Is vastly greater than
any one had supposed. He believed
that there are at least 125,O0O, and
that a majority Of them have a spi-
raj form. TO facilitate a study OF
these mysterious and fascinating OBJ
jects he began a campaign Of photo
graphy. which was not quite com
pleted when he died. The work was
finished by other members Of the
Lick observatory staff, and now, af-
ter many necessary delays, a collec-
tion Of rare value has been given to
the world.-New York Tribune.

BISHOP SCORES DIVORCE EVIL.
Declares Marriage Tie Has Become
Almost Joke.

Chicago, Feb. 1.-THE divorce evil
and it's spread throughout the coun-
try was scored in an address here by
Bishop P. j. Donahue Of Wheeling,
W. Va.
"Unless this cancer of divorce Is
cut out Of this nation" he said, this
together with the greed of wealth,
the mad craze for pleasure will wreck
the ship of state and we shall fall
back into the paganism of old.
The marriage tie, held by the
founders of our Republic as sacred,
has now become almost a joke.
mo state law yet provides for di-
vorce for general cusedness or being
NO good, bWt they are getting pretty
close to these desirable goals"

Mr.. Aldrich found in the reserve
system the most striking character
istic of the union banks, he said.
He said that the central banks Of
England, France and Germany, the
Bank Of England and Bank Of France
and the Reichs bank hold all the re-
sources of all the banks Of their re-
spectiye countries He pointed out
that there is no legal requirement
rendering it necessary for the foreign
banks to keep in their vaults so large
a percentage as is necessary in Z :
United States, saying that the SUI
ordinate banks regard money in the
central institution just as available
for their reserve purposes as if it
were in their own vaults
Asking himself how the great CEN
tral banks protected themselves In
times of stress, Mr. Aldrich replied:
~They advance the discount rate as
they did the other day For what2
To attract gold from other countries,
which has the effect of building up
their reserves. This process is al

KATE BARNARD SAYS
STORY IS UNTRUE
Chief Assistant Has Just Completed
Inspection Of Conditions at the
Pryor Greek orphanaee.

Guthrie, Okla, Nov. 10.-Miss Kate
Barnard, commissioner Of charities and
corrections, last night gave out an in
teryiew in which she seriously objects
to statements credited to Bert Chand-
ler a member of the state board Of
public affairs, in local newspaper,
saying that "horrible conditions exist
in the Whitaker orphanage at Pryor
Creek.
Miss Barnard says:
"Bert Chandler accuses the state or
phans home Of placing our orphan
children in coarsening proximity
boys and girls occupying sleeping
rooms in the same building, and upon
the same floor in the state orphanage.
Without detail ] will state this is a
positive lie. Now if Bert Chandler has
anything to say for himself let him
speak.
Z am ready to answer anything
further which he may say with afii-
davits from the best citizens of Okla
homa"
Miss Barnard has received the fol-
lowing telegram from B. F. Lee, super
intendent of the home;
orphans home articles false. Boys
and girls do not occupy the same
building. Are kept separate on play
grounds. Afidavit follows by mail"
Miss Barnard states that three in
spections of the institution have been
made since statehood by A. Huson
her chief assistant, and that he has
just completed an inspection, although
he has not yet submitted his report
to her
Miss Barnard had Chandler on the
grill in her office yesterday. He said
he only stated that the institution was
badly overcrowded, and that he did
not even intimate that boys and girls
were quartered in the same building
and on the same floor.

MONETARY COMMISSION HAS
No PET REFORM SCHEME
Senator AIdrich Points Out European Banking
Methods as Better Than American - Protect
Themselves in Times of Stress BY AdUGnc-
ing the Discount Rate - Agrees That
Our System is Barbaric.

OF England advanced the rate to ~
per cent and that step brought gold
from twenty-five countries. asked
Mr.. Campbell, the then governor Of
the bank, what he would have done II
he had not secured the gold lie re-
piled We would have put the rate
up to 10 per cent and that would
have brought gold out of the earth
What else do they do? They ex-
tend credits literally to every one
who is solvent and who has right to
borrow. Instead Of shutting their
doors and stopping the extension Of
credits, and refusing to give credits
TO their own customers, they do these
two things They protect their own
reserves and they extend credit liber-
ally TO every one who deserves it and
who wants it.
Contrasting this system with the
rigid methods Of the United States,
Senator Aldrich said:
II have no doubt myself that the
opinion which is everywhere express
ed in Europe. that our system is bar
barous, is correct. 1t certainly is
against the experience Of modern
banking everywhere else"
