NEW POSTAL BANK BONDS
They Are to Mark Beginning OF
Simplicity in Design.

of the $50, 500 and 500 denominations. re-
spectively. These bonds, which will be
ready for the public as soon as the postal
bank system is established will mark the
beginning of a reform in the general style
of designing not only of United States
bonds but possibly checks and drafts, ana
eventually paper money. in the direction OF
simplicity. The familiar figures of women
and of milkmaids leaning upon sheaves of
wheat and other meaningless illustrations
from the present Treasury point of view
on most of the previous bonds, are to be
eliminated in the new issue.
The postal savings bank trustees have
approved the designs for the coupon and
registered bonds of the three denominations
mentioned, but while the law contemplates
the issue of similar ones of the denomi-
nations of $40. $50 and $50 these are not
contemplated at present. as they are only
multiples of $50, and can be easily met by
the three styles.
The bonds are to be smaller than any
others the government has ever issued.
and the coupon issued with all, prepared
for semi-annual payments for twenty years,

cumbrous embellishments of scrollwork
leaves and wire fences are to be omitted,
and the lettering is to be clear, distinct
and simple.

GENERAL AUSTEN RESIGNS
Finally Yields to Desire of Con-
troller Prendergast.

General David E. Austen. who had been
receiver of taxes in the Finance Depart
rnent. at 5000 a year, since October 80.
1889, sent in his resignation yesterday, to
take effect on October 81. General Austen
had not taken hold Of the new system for
billing taxes as Controller Prendergast
had wished. and the latter came 10 the con-
clusion that General Austen had been In
the department too long TO be effective in
starting a new system. Furthermore, the
Controller got the impression that General
Austen was not only out of sympathy with
the new system. but was actually hostile
TO il.
General Austen was told that his resig-
nation would be welcome. but at first he
was determined TO fight TO hold his place.
He became convinced, however, lhaI IL
would be of no avail
The Controller Immediately accepted the
resignation and gave General Austen a
leave Of absence for the remainder of his
term of service.
Major F. II. z. Ebstein. who is now an
auditor, at 5000 a year, was placed in
on the taking effect Of General Austen
resignation Major E5stein will be appoint
ed to the place. His salary viii be $500,
81 600 less than the office has paid hitherto.
AS he believes the years of experience of
General Austen will be of service to the
bureau, Controller Prendergast intends TO
offer him a place as auditor, at S5,oVO a
year, IL he cares TO remain in the City's
service.
1t is the intention of Controller Prender-
CAST to have the bureau entirely reorgan-
lied under Major Ebstein.

Hamburg-American liner Amerika. He
was not pleased when informed of Theo-
dore Roosevelt's recent utterances charg-
ing Wall Street with being in league with
Tammany Hall The banker said he ad-
mired the ex-President greatly. but
thought it would be best for him to use
his influence to promote peace in the com
mercial field. Mr.. Seligman said he be
lieved the leading banking interests of the
country would welcome the return Of the
Democratic party to power in 1912.

a city having such officials or by city or
town clerks elsewhere in order 10 vail

The action Of the Foss and Riley sup

Believes Only Hope of Election
Lies in Silence.
FEARS RECORD OF PARTY
Tilden, Flower and Cleveland
Administrations Won't Stand
Light of Day.

Having looked up the records of the III
den. the Cleveland and the Flower cam
na;ens the Democratic party managers
have decided that a policy of dignihed
silence on the part of John A. Dix. candl-
date for Governor. will be most likely to
bring success to the ticket this fall.
The present intention is to have him make
no more speeches, but possibly to write
letter or two and receive few delegations
at his home in Thomson and talk to them
briefly The managers realize that they
cannot hope to duplicate the acuVlues OF
Theodore Roosevelt. so they do not intend
to try. why should we attempt 10 answer
all that he may say?' was the way one or
the managers expressed this position yes
terday.
There is some dissent from this decision
of the campaign managers. but it is not
likely to be changed. Since the speech OF
acceptance Of Mr.. Dix there have been de-
mands from all parts of the state for more
like it
Judge Parker is still the headliner of
the Democratic campaign. and will probably
remain SO. Another date was fixed for him
yesterday. He will speak in Watertown on
Tuesday night, October 25 No dates have
been fixed for Edward NJ Shepard. He was
to let the speakers bureau know what
time he had free, but so far has not
done so.
It was announced yesterday that Con-
gresham Sulzer would do some speaking
in the western part Of the state. 1t will be
on his own hook. however, and hislitinerary
will he a personal one. Augustus Thomas,
the playwright, who has been suffering
from water on the knee, has written to
Congressman Harrison. head of the speak
erS bureau. that he hopes he will be in
shape by the latter part of next week to
take the stump for the Democratic ticket.
State Chairman Huppuch said yesterday
that he had no reply to make to the state
ment of Mr.. Stimson, that Mr.. HuppUch,
as president of a wall paper company in
which he and Mr.. Dix are interested. had
written a letter to the Congress committee
revising the tariff asking that the duty on
wall paper be increased.

Old Moon Fools Us

If we could see the old moon as it
really is, how different we would find
it from the great golden globe which
hangs in the sky The Old Man in the
Moon does not really live on the great
ball, nor has the moon one single ray
of light of its own. Every bit of it's
splendor is borrowed from the sun.
Indeen, the poor old moo IS just a
huge ball. SCARED and wrinkled from
the fierce fire which burned it out thou
sands of years ago 1t has no atmos
phere or air around it to protect it
from the sun, yet it never changes a
bit, for there is no moisture there.
If the earth had no air around it our
world would die just as the moon died.
The air protects the earth from the
SUMS heat by day and blankets the
world at night to keep it warm un-
til the suns heat is sent on the next
day.
There is no such thing as noise on
the moon, because there is no air to
carry the sound. The moon has no
Los Angeles herald., 1910-05-15

water at all on it, though the great
plains which can be seen through tel
escope make us believe that at one time
there were CULTS and bays up there.
The heavy marks which we often see
on the yellow ball are the outlines of
very high mountains. Some of them
have great craters or openings in their
tops-fifty, sixty or even a hundred
miles wide The widest crater in the
world is only seven miles across. You
see it is probable, then, that greater
volcanic eruptions have taken place on
the moon than have ever occurred any
where on our earth. The reason that
we know so much more about the moon
than about any other beauty of the
heavens Is because it is the nearest
body to us. once 1t was really a part
of the earth, but was thrown off when
the world was a great mass of heat
If we should journey ten times around
our globe at the widest part-the equa-
tor-we should travel the same distance
that would be necessary if we should
take trip to the moon.
