The English word "frock, denoting a

a frock coat, on the continent it means

American Humor.
he Seattle Post lntelligencer.

From the Seattle Post 1ntelligencer.
Taking for it's text the fact that the
best musical comedies presented in this
country come out of London. an eastern
newspaper bemoans the decline of Ameri-
can humor. 1t Is a just complaint.
Americans are fond Of humor; but there
seems to be little of 1t In them now.
No doubt there are humorists of high
quality in this country, but they are
not in the foreground. While. Mark Twain
is still interesting. he has lost the fresh
ness and spontaniety of an earlier time.
Bill Nye is dead. George AIDE Is mildly
funny, rather than humorous; the COM
polling quality Of genuine humor is not
to be found in his efforts. Peter Dunno
got much closer to the real thing in Mr..
Dooley: but. then, discourses in dialect
on topical themes quickly lose their
pertinence and are soon forgotten.
Perhaps the pressure Of American life
has been too severe to make possible sus-
tanned humor Of kind that would en-
dure. But the time Is ripe for the COM
ing of a great American humorist: 1t is
ripe, too. for the coming of an essayist,
and for the coming OF a satirist Of the
good quality of Swift or Carlyle.

THE EAGLES FASCINATION.
Men Have Always Taken Him as q
Symbol Of Power.

From the London Times.
However much the eagle may be in awe
of man. there seems to have been no age
in which man has not accepted the play
mate Of the storm as the symbol Of king
ship or power. It's sovereignty among
the birds
Sailing with supreme dominion
Through the azure deeps OF air
is more indisputable than that OF the lion
among beasts; and nation after nation
Assyria, Persia, Rome. France, Germany,
Russia, Austria, Italy. Poland and the
United States-has used 1t either as the
royal crest or as its military standard.
No great man but has been an eagle to
his eulogists, and, cleaning from the poets
at random, we find Napoleon, Pindar,
btho, Madoc, Duguesclin, LOchial, VOL
sew. Prince Hubert, the Duke of York,
Bacon, Herminius. Coriolanus and many
another equipped with eagle qualities. The
proud lift of the hair from the brow Of
the capitoline Jove is said to have been
studied from the forehead of lion.
Certainly more than one sculptor of the
head Of a Roman emperor, and more than
one painter of imaginary portraits of
Napoleon, have borrowed from the eagle
the straight line of the eyebrow, just cut

majesty of appearance. Every emotion.
every attribute of tragic circumstance Of
life raised to its highest power is COM
pared in verse or by the essayists to the
royal bird: SO fame. ambition. science.
reason, danger, pride, hatred are .'eagle-
eyed" or "eagle-talOned." No mountain
is so high as those which are "eagle-baf-

Greatness itself becomes eagle great

true victory has eagles wings. What dig

American Banks Needed Abroad.

Germany and England have chains of
banks in foreign countries which af
ford important facilities to their COM
patriots interested in the foreign trade
as we'll as to the native business inter-

The lack of such facilities represents a

In many OF the most important terri

graphical position are within the natural

dollar that changes hands between Amer
