own progress will be prolonged and
made more permanent by doing their
share towards reducing the cost OF liy-
ing. AS that element declines there
will be more to spend in other direc-
tions, other industries will become
more prosperous, the number OF en-
ployed will increase, there will be a
larger number Of mOaths to feed, and
a consequent better demand for food
products. Our monetary outlook is in
every way satisfactory. Cheap rates
for both call and time funds are prob
able for the next six months to come.
Loanable funds are, If anything, over
abundant, and reflect only too plainly
the prevailing inaction OF business.
Gold exports are increasing and fur
Their efflux Of the precious metal is an
tieiIated SO long as interest rates con-
tiHue So low and imports continue to
grow as at present. The arrivals OF
foreign merchandise during the last
few months have been steadily increas-
ing. and it is cheering to note that the
increases have been largest in raw ma
terials for domestic manufacture. Our
exports of agricultural products have.
however. been seriously restrained by
high prices. thus materially facilitating
gold exports. Fortunately the supply
of gold in this country is SO large as
to cause NO uneasiness at the consider
able efflux. but this constant loss OF
gold on such a large scale, when our
excessive supply OF paper currency re-
mains at comparative standstill, is
rot a tendency that is entirely salts
factory.

MUSICIANS FtUO
THING OF The PAST
MascagM and Puccini Have
Made Up at Last.

Rome, March 15.-The long feud be-
tween the musician Mascagni. compos-
err of "Cavalleria Rusticana" and PUG
cini, composer of Mime. Butterfly is
at an end The, rivals met at the an
nual meeting OF the Association of
Musicians. which took place. at the
opera house. The two maestri had
not spoken to each other for years,
and it was generally known that
neither considered that the other had
any value as composer. They were
introduced to each other, by peace
loving friend, and bowed stiffly to
each other. Then suddenly Mascagni
threw himself into his rivals arms,
and declared that there was no sense
in sulking like school boys. Puccini
responded heartily and the two CON-
posers left the building arm-in-arm.

agining that she might be arrested for mpersonat-
ing herself.
There is humorous side to these Commissions OF
identity, as in the of the Engishman who.
boosted that through his likeness to member of
the London Stock Exchange he had succeeded IN
going in and out of that inaccessible building without
having his hat smashed, the fate of all intruders
there. And there is the story of another Engshman
who proud of having been able to sit in the House
of Commons, passing below the sacred gangway past
the policeman the strength of his resemblance to
one of the members.
But there has too often been tragic side to the
question. Through their resemblance to criminals
innocent persons have suffered Imprisonment lost
their lives the scaold been deprived of their
property, suffered social ostracism through the
intrigues of impostors Such intrigue to dscredit
an English Minister was Matched during the Boer
War. 1t was planned to have man closely resem-
bling him appear in public in company with two
disreputable members of the opposing party. Ii ne
had been seen with these his reputation would
have been ruined; but fortunately, the plot was dis
covered and prevented ~ -,

assassin pulled out photograph of the hated Gen
eral and compared it carefully with the face OF the
victim, to guard against mistake. The resemblance
perfect The shot was fired. The man tell.
But he not General Trepoff. He was his double,
the innocent victim of fatal resemblance.
One of the best parts that Henry irving pre-
sented in his last American tour , the double
role in 1.-The Lyons Mail" which his father made
famous before him. In this excellent old melo-
drama by Charles Reade innocent merchant
IS brought to the scaffold-from which, happily,
he is rescued at the end-by resemblance to the
criminal that deceives even his own father. The
fiction of this plot is stranger than the fact for
it is founded historic incident.
Indeed from the time that Esau impersonated
Jacob before their father and received his brothers
portion doubles and mistakes of identity have been
one of the most constant and disturbing causes of
confusion to human society. Kingdoms, family
happiness, you yourself, at their mercy. AS
writer puts the situation. " 1t is not pleasant.
especially if you pride yourself on your personal
appearance think that there is an individual going
about who is SO like you even in the matter OF scars
and pmples, that your wife might be deceived, and
for whom should he take to murder, you might be
hanged"
Among the hundreds of millions of inhabitants of the
globe it entirely probable that everyone closely
resembles some one else that he could easily imper
senate the other, if he chose. The one thing that
keeps such imposture from being more common than
it is is the fact that the doubles do not always dis
cover each other.
If they are bent on imposture criminal or other
wse they have resources for pranks or crime from
which it is most impossible to protect oneself,
which leave them always an almost certain loophoe
for escape for shifting the responsibility. The
possibilities of confusion of identity for dramatic
newspapers mention instances of them every day.
History is full of them. Drama and fiction are full
of them. 1t is theme that never stales; it may
be relied always for striking situation. Just to
mention few instances it has been used thousands
of times from Shakespeare's comedies of The Two
Dromios" and Twelfth Night to- The Prisoner
may seem extravaganza but they have had almost
exact parallels.
