evening on the pier, there were marks

was advanced that she lost her life
while defending her honor.
The search for the Seylers was then
turned into a man hunt. They were

William Seyler stoutly denied that he

Seyler said that after the girl tumbled
into the water he scrambled down the
ladder leading to the water. expecting
to seize her, but that she did not rise

Mrs. Adams accused him of knowing

The boys and girls are taught their
respective duties at an early age. The
boys are also taught athletics and
learn fencing, boxing and baseball. The
girls are invariably expected to marry
sooner or later and this is why every
girl is taught at school not only to
sew, but also to cut and make her

to the aristocracy, she is also taught

Marriage Not For Happiness.
The mothers teach their daughters TO
look upon marriage, not as romantic
paradise of happiness, but as a period
Of self-sacrifice and devotion, when
they will need all their best qualities
and virtues TO fulfill their destinies in
life.
This is the reason why the Japanese
wife in contrast to her western mar
ried sisters, who are often dissatisfied
with married life, is always calm and
contented and performs her not al
ways pleasant duties with noble resig-

FAMOUS MAYOR CASE
ORDERED REVERSED
New Mexico Supreme Court
Renders Several I'm
pOrtant Decisions.

Santa Fe. N NJ, Sept 3-The terri
tOrial supreme court has reversed the
lower court in the famous Albuquerque
mayOralty cases. At the spring cleo
ton, the Republican candidate, DR.. J.
W. Elder. received one vote more on
the face of the returns than the incum-
bent, F. E. Lester, a Democrat. The
latter. by mandamus. compelled the
counting of two votes that had not been
counted for him on account of theiI
irregularity and Elder appealed.
The supreme court also sustained the
lower court in two cases involving the
location of county seats and which had
been brought TO restrain the county
commissioners of Lincoln county from
building courthouse and jail at tne
new county seat of Csrrizozo and the
commissioners of Terrence county from
building courthouse at Estancia.
The lower court is sustained in the
cose of Michael O'Neill, appellant, VS.
F. J. Otero, special master, appellee.
O'Nein had failed to do the annual Ia
Dor on several mining claims in south
ern Santa Fe county, for the Consoli-
dated Mining and Smelling company.
Joseph DeLallo relocated the claims and
conveyed them to O'Ndl. The lower
court held against o'NeAl and the SUI
preme court suStains this position. In
the case of GOesling Brothers VS.. Gross,
Kelly & Co, the lower court is suS-

der the knife it does not bulge but
dies calmly in a dignified manner. The
boy is thus taught that he is expected
to show the same qualities as the carp,
and the festival teaches him to honor
the heroes OF his country.
The habits of discipline and abne-
cation which are implanted in the chill
dren from the beginning become very
useful to them late in life. Children of
different mothers, of the legitimate
wife and the concubines, are often
brought up together by the wife, whom
they all call mother. This would prob
ably be very difficult in a western
household, but thanks to the wisdom
tact, self-denial and loyalty of the
Japanese wife, this system has always
worked tremendously and irreproacha-
bly, in Japan.

their children to school for SIX years,

Bank of England Always
Has Enough Gold to Meet
All Drafts It Is Ac-
complished.

Washington. D. c., Sept. "a de-
scription Of the mechanism of the Lon
don money market in its relation TO
the Bank of England, the joint stock
banks, and the discount houses has
just been made public by the National
Monetary commission in a monograph
on The English banking system" by
Hartley Withers, financial editor of the
London Times Mr.. Withers begins with
an enumeration of the distinctive func-
tions of the Bank of England, which
he declares to be as follows:
L Banker to the Bri fish government
2.Banker to the joint stock and pri-
vate banks.
8. (a) Sole possessor of the right to
issue notes which are legal tender in
England; OBJ sole possessor, among
joint stock banks with an office in
London; of the right to issue notes at
all.
4. PrOvider of emergency currency.
5. Keeper of the gold reserve for
British banking.
6. Keeper of the gold reserve, which
is most readily available for the pur.
pose of international banking
These various functions fit into and
supplement one another, and though
their diversity is sometimes pointed to
as throwing too much responsibility
onto one institution. it, in fact, enables
the bank to carry out its duties with
extraordinary ease and with the least
possible disturbance to the financial
community. By the fact that it keeps
the balances of the other banks, the
Bank of England is enabled to conduct
the payment of the interest on the
British debt largely by transfers In its
books. BY the fact that it keeps the
balances of the government and has the
monopoly of the legal tender not issue.

eyes Of the general public, which it

! than so centimeters long, 80 centimeters
wide and so centimeters high, though
they may be as much larger as the party
In interest may choose TO make them.
The proceedings of announcement and
survey are sent to Mexico at the proper
time and, if approved, the department
forwards one copy OF the map TO the
party in interest, through the mining
agent, with instructions to erect his
monuments within 80 days on the bases
previously constructed and to return the
map with certificate of an engineer
that the monuments have been so COLI
structed. The engineer who made the
survey is to be preferred. If he cannot be
secured, than any other with a diploma,
and, in defect of the latter, then any
surveyor with sufficient ability to do
the work and make the certificate.
Second Class Properties.
Exactly the same procedure is followed
in the case of properties of the second
class, with the difference that the bases
and monuments are built at the sans
time, upon instructions from the depart
ment to build them. In both cases upon
return of the map and certificate to the
department, through the mining office,
and the approval of the same, the patent
is issued. If the map and certificate
scTibed and if the term be not extended,
the patent, of course. will not issue and
the claims will be declared open for de-
nouncenlent.
Observe that the monuments are con-
structed in two parts at two differens
times. and that no dimensions are pre-
scrlbed for the monuments proper.
Recording Documents.
The mining law of June 4, 1892, re-
pealed by the present law, made it on
tional with individuals to record or moi
record their mine patents, and obligatory
on companies to do so. The patent was
the only instrument excepted by this
provision. The provision itself was dia-
metrically contrary to the provision
of the federal civil code and the
civil codes of the states. which
required that all documents affecting
real property or rights real constituted
upon them should be recorded. The new
law simply removes this anomaly, and
requires that these documents shall all
be recorded. whether they be in the name
of an individual or OF a corporation
Stumbling Block for Americans.
The 9Th transitOry article of the new
law has not been understood by Ameri-
cans. This article is as follows:
article 5th transitory-A term of six
months Is granted TO owners of mining
property who have not complied with the
provision contained in the first part or

money in London so that the exchanges
may not be allowed to become or re-
main adverse to a dangerous point. Inc
difficulties of this task are fncreast
by the extent TO which the English
banking community works inde--
pendently of ii, by accepting and DIS
counting finance paper, and giving Tor
eigners credits at rates which encour-
age their further creation. For the low
and whilly unregulated proportion OF
cash to liabilities on which English
banking works enables the OTHER banks
TO multiply credits ultimately based on
the Bank of England's reserve leaving
the responsibility for maintaining the
reserve to the bank. This it does by
raising its rate when necessary, aN>d
so, if it has control of the market and
its rate IS effective" raising the gem
eral level of money rates in London
Controlling the Market.
When its rate is not effective, the bank
of England finds itself obliged to inter
vene IN the outer money market-cOn-
sisting of the other banks and their
customers-and control the rates cur
rent in it. This it does by borrowing
some of the floating funds in this mar
ket, so Iessening their supply and fore
ing up the price of money BY means
of this borrowing it diminishes the bal
ances kept with it by the other banks''
either directly or dndirectly-direct-
" if it borrOws from them, indirectly
If il borrOws from their customers, who
hand the advance to it in the shape OF
a check on them. The result is that so
much of the cash at the Bank of Eng
land" " hich the English banking COM
munity uses as part of its basis or
credit, is wiped out, mOney-which IN
London generally means the price at
which the bankers are prepared to lend
for q day or for a short period to the
discount Inconsistencies dearer, the
market rate of discount consequently
tends to advance, the foreign exchanges
move in favor of London, and the tide
of gold sets in the direction of the
Bank of England's vaults, and it IS en-
abled TO replenish its reserve or check
the drain on it.
Making Checks Currency.
In summing up the relation of the
to the international money market, IL
prestige which makes a credit in its
books as good as gold enables the
banking community to expand credits
and make check currency as long as ii
is prepared to lend credit. At the end
of the half year it is sometimes applied
ID for fresh credits to the extent of
over twenty millions sterling, chiefly
in the form of advances for a few
days. On one side of its account its
holding of securities is expanded by
this amount and On the other its liabil-
ity on deposits is similarly swollen.

be distinguishable from the monuments
of adjoining mining properties.
The foregoing contains all the LAW
and urophets'' on the matter of mOnu-
ments in the existing mining law OF
November 25, 1909, and the regulations
of the same, both effective January l,
1910.
Three classes of Properties.
In the matter Of monuments there
are three classes of properties to be
considered. The first covers properties
patented prior to January 1, 1910; the
second embraces all those pendin~ pat
ent January l, 1910, and the third in
cludes those denounced subsequent to
the same date, and which come wholly
within the scope of the existing law.
Mining properties of the first class
which had been patented and monu-
mented prior to January l, 1910 do not
require to be remonumented, as the law
requires only "OWners who have not
monumented the boundaries Of their
properties" to do so, and gives them
one year from January 1, 1910, for the
purpose. No formality is prescribed ana
the owner can himself. erect his monu
ments or employ any surveyor to do so
for him. He is not required to apply to
any special or Otner person nor to report
~ ANY O11ISId4 VI pcISOu d4OtI Tile
ments are erected. The presumption of
law is that his claims were correctly
surveyed when patent was issued and
that he knows his boundaries.
The Penalties.
The penalty for failure to erect the
monuments in this case is a fine of 100
pesos and liability for loss OF damage
TO third parties. A further failure TO
erect the monuments within 80 days
makes the party IN interest liable to the
punishment prescribed for disobedience
of a lawful order of a public authority,
and the monuments will be constructed
by the department of public develop
ment at his expense.
If, however, this be not the case and
there be any error in the survey or in
the patent, the procedure is to ask for
a rectification and then the official sur
vey becomes necessary, precisely as in
the case of a new announcement This
is the procedure followed in the district

article 2 of the law of June 6, 1892, for
the purpose OF proving to the department
of public development that they have
complied with the requirements imposed
upon them by the laws under which
their titles were derived for the "reser-
walton Of their property. At the eXplra-
tiOn of that term, 1T they have not sub
mitted the proof specified, said titles
shall be considered Iapsed, without the
necessity of any special declaration anu
the respective properties shall be freely
denounceable"
Law on Taxation.
The law of June 6, 1892, is the law
on the taxation of mining and Is still
in force. The article referred to pro-
vides that persons holding mining prop
erty without patent but with some color
of title, whatever it may be- shall pre-
sent whatever paper title they may have
or a statement of their rights, to the
collector of the revenue from stamps for
him to pass on the same, determine the
area of the property held and fix the
amount OF the tax on the same. Inns
provision lapsed October 81, = 1892, was
extended one year therefrom by special
act of congress, and was again revived
for six months by the present law. II
has, of course, again lased on July l,
1910.
Foreigners.
The provisions as to foreigners have
been radically changed. The law o.
February 1, 1856, incorporated into every
mining law since that time, DrOvideL
that no foreigner could acquire real
property within zone of 20 leagues l52
English miles) of the frontier of his
own country, without the express per-
mission of the executive OF the union:
This. of course. excluded Americans and
the citizens of Guatemala and British
Honduras. but no others. The present
law saws foreigners" without any quail
fving term and therefore excludes all
foreigners from acquiring mining prop
erty within zone of 80 k1lometers AZ
English miles, of the frontiers of Mexico
without the prior permission OF the exc
crtive of the union.
Foreign companies are absolutely ex'
cluded from that zone of 80 kilometers
and can neither locate nor purchase moi
hold by irheritage any mining property
located in that zone.

THE BANKING SYSTEM Of ENGLAND
and ITS CONTROL Of MONEY MARKET

communicates to the other banks which
bank with it.
English Credit Good.
A credit in the books of the Bank
of England has come 10 be regarded as
just as good as so much gold, and the
other banks, with one exception,
habitually state their cash in hand
and at the Bank of England" as one
item in their balance sheets, as if there
were no difference between an actual
holding of gold or legal tender and
balance at the Bank of England II
thus follows, at times when an increase
o. currency is desirable. that it can
be expanded by an increase in the bal
ance OF the other banks at the Bank
of England, since they thus become
possessed OF more cash to be used as
the basis of credit; for currency in
England chiefly consists of checks, and
customers who apply to the banks for
accommodation, by way of discount or
advance, use it by drawing a check,
which is passed on and so creates a de-
post, and expansion of currency thus
consists chiefly in expansion of bank
ing deposits. This expansion is only
limited by the proportion between de-
posits and cash which by increasing
their credit in the Bank OF England's
books the creation of currency can pro.
ceed without let or hindrance.
London Ready to Honor Drafts.
Taking up the subject of the position
of the Bank of England in the inter-
national market, it is declared that
London is the only European center
which is always prepared to honor its
drafts in gold Immediately and 20 any
extent.
The Bank of France has the right
to make payments in silver. and uses
it by often charging a premium on
gold sufficient to check any demand
for it; and in other centers measures
are taken which make apparently free
cOnvertibility of credit instruments
optional at the choice of the central
bank. Consequently the Bank of Eng
land has to be prepared to meet de-
mands on it ut any time from abroad
based on credits given to foreigners bv
the English banking community. and
it has thus to observe the signs of
financial weather in all parts of the
world and TO regulate the price of
