CHICAGO FAvORS
SAN FRANCISCO
Golden Gate City Endorsed For
Holding Panama Exposition
STRONG RESOLUTION ADOPTED

Action of National Business League
of America In Support of the Cali
fornia City as the Most Desirable
Place to Celebrate the Completion
Of the Panama Canal Bound 10
Exert a Wide Influence.
The business men of Chicago are
for San Francisco as the most desir-
able site for the exposition to cele-
brate the completion of the Panama
canal in 1915. The National Business
League Of America, on Oct. 7, adopt
ed a resolution endorsing San Fran
cisco and this action by such an in
fluential body of representative bust
ness n en- is bound TO exert wide in
fiuence throughout the middle west
and the east
This endorsement, following close
~ on the failure of New Orleans to
secure a Chicago endorsement is par
ticularly pleasing to San Francisco.
The resolution follows:
Whereas, The Panama canal will,
when completed, unite the waters Of
the Pacific and Atlantic oceans and
create new opportunities for the ad-
vancement of American commerce.;
and,
Whereas, The citizens Of San
Francisco, in the state of California,
United States of America, have pub
licly declared their intention of hold
ing an international exposition in the
year 1915, under the title The Pana-
ma-Pacific International Exposition,
to fittingly celebrate the completion
of the Panama canal; and,
Whereas, The Pacific coast has an
equable and healthful climate, and
San Francisco has every modern IA
cility for the comfort and entertain
ment of a large concourse of people,
with ample opportunities for side
trips to other coast cities; and,
Whereas, By any route, a pilgrim
age to the Pacific coast would be
through scenes Of beauty and gran
deur unrivaled in any other part of
the world, the trip to the exposition
should be made, at least one way, by
a route through the Panama canal,
in order that visitors and the world
at large may become familiar with
that wonderful achievement; there
fore, be it
Resolved BY the Board of Diree-
tors of the National Business League
OF America, that San Francisco be,
and hereby is, strongly recommended
as the proper site for the proposed
exposition; and the board further
recommends that a line of commodi-
GUS passenger steamers be establish
ed to ply to and fro, through the
canal, between the Atlantic coast
cities and cities of the Pacific coast,
primarily for the purpose of enabling
visitors to the exposition to inspect
said canal"

SAN FRANCISCO
The ONLY PLACE
Manufacturer Of Detroit Boosts
the Exposition,

W. B. Knickerbocker. a prominent
manufacturer of Detroit, Mich, IS an
enthusiastic booster for San Fran
cisco in the fight for congressional
approval of it's proposed Panama-Pa-
cific exposition.
II believe that II the members Of
congress could be brought out to Cal
itornia and given a glimpse of things
as they exist here they would vote
solidly for San Francisco when the
exposition matter comes before them
next December" said Mr. Knicker-
booker
1T Is human instinct to move
westward. and the great movement
toward western America is just now
beginning. This is great, marvel
Gus, new country. of which we in the
east know next to nothing.
There is no travel south. The ex-
position belongs here where the peo-
pie are coming. They will come to
the exposition through the canal and
then so back through this marvellous
western country. Many, however,
impressed by the marvellous re-
sources of California, will remain
here for good. This scenery. the
mountains. the forests and all the
rest of It is not approached by any
thing in Europe. Thousands of PEG
pie who now so to Europe would
rather come here If they knew what
is here. They are beginning TO learn.
The exposition viii do wonders for
the west. The interest of the coun-
try at large demands that the expo
sition be held here"

The Gentle Game of Golf.

On one occasion an old lady was in
the same railway compartment as a
party of golfers. Il found fearful
trouble this morning." said one. "At
the first l fell right into the middle Of
a prickly gorse bush. and at the Sec
ond 1 was stuck up on the top of a
tree. pitched out of bounds into the
farmyard at the third, got caught by
the wire at the fourth. 1 stuck fast
in a deep hole at the fifth, found my
self buried in mud at the sixth. l was
lying in a heap of rough fiints at the
seventh, got lost at the eighth and
finished up at the bottom of that dirty
ditch at the last hole"
Gracious me-" cried the Mortified
old lady from her corner of the car
riage, land they told me that golf was
an old mans game, I'll never let my
Edwin play again"'-London Globe.

THE PARSONS CHECKS.
They Were Politely Drawn, but the
Bank Threw Them Out.

0aHA ] nFeW mem OU1.
According TO George Cary Eggleston,
Virginians of ante bellum days showed
great indifference in money matters.
Money in the form of coin was rarely
seen. The planters were in the habit
of writing checks ON a slip of foolscap.
instructing the bank TO please pay
the amount specified Eggleston says:
This custom of paying by check so
strongly commended itself TO a certain
unworldly parson of my time that he
resorted to it ON one occasion in en-
tire ignorance and Innocence of the
necessity of having bank deposit as
a preliminary to the drawing of
checks. He went to Richmond and
bought a years supplies for his little
place-it was too small to be called a
plantation-and for each purchase he
drew a particularly polite check.
When the banks threw these out
on the ground that their author had no
account the poor old parson found the
situation a difficult one TO understand.
He had thought that the very purpose
of banks being was to cash checks
for persons who happened to be short
of money. why. if I'd had the money
in the bank he explained. L shouldn't
have written the checks at all; l
should have got the money and paid
the bills.
Fortunately the matter came TO the
knowledge of well to do and gen
erous planter who knew Parson ]. and
who happened to be in Richmond at
the time. His Endorsement made the
checks good and saved the unworldly
old parson a deal of trouble Chicago

porized Cipher.

porized Cipher.
When Wall street first caught the
fever for industrial combinations
and began the reorganization of every
thing in sight one of the votaries of
high finance found himself in Chicago
in extreme need OF communicating
with his New York office.
He almost completed an arrange
ment for the consolidation of several
western enterprises. but in order To
get the final authority he needed from
New York he must explain all he had
zone by wire TO his partners.
There was no time to write He had
no cipher code. For a long time he
tried to think out some way to send
the information so that it would be
plain TO his partners and meaningless
to any one else. His secret was a val
liable one and once sent over the wire
might be sold out to his rivals in Wall
street for a large sum.
At last lie decided to take the
chances in plain English. Accordingly
he wrote the message and gave it to
his assistant to send. Half an hour
later. when the assistant came back.
he asked him if be had sent it,
"Not just that way" said the clerk.
