The Current Gold Imitation.
From the Review Of Reviews.


There must be always a money basis for
credit. and the larger the basis the larger
the credit structure possible. While it
is true that the credit structure may
temporarily expand beyond its normal
ratio to the money basis on which 1t
rests. yet even this abnormal expansion
of deposits is always inaugurated by an
expansion of money. It Is probable that
deposits In general are now expanding
more rapidly than their monetary basis.
But the source of this deposit imitation Is
money imitation, and the source Of the
monetary imitation Is gold imitation. We
must give up our blind faith in the stabil.
ity Of gold. While experience has given
us all keen sense Of the dangers Of
paper imitation. this very fact has led
to overconfidence in gold. We stoutly
cling to the delusion that nothing else
is las solid as gold" while under our
very eyes the cyanide method of extract
ing gold from low grade ores as well az
the new discoveries of gold and their con-
tinued exploitation produce depreciation
we are unwilling to recognize. The sta
tistics for the last few years have shown
a remarkable increase In the output Of
gold and one which resembles the in
crease after the gold discoveries In the

From the Chicago News.

rom the Cnfcago News.
Ironing linen has a greater effect than
is commonly believed AS the tempera-
ture of the iron may greatly exceed 266
degrees Fahrenheit, 1t has been suggested
that the process of ironing may suffice to
sterilize surgical dressings and hence be
of valuable service. especially in rural
districts and elsewhere, in the absence Of
disfnfecting ovens and sterilizers. Nearly
all microbes can be killed by sufficient
ly long application of a temperature of
los degrees Fahrenheit. but a tempera-
ture OF 266 degrees Fahrenheit is required
to kill certain spores of bacteria and to
produce absolutely complete sterilization
1t has been proved by experiment that
it is possible to disinfect clothing very
satisfactorily by ironing. Clothing which
had been worn by children affected by
various contagious diseases, and which
contained bacteria or pus, diphtheria and
the like. was sprinkled and ironed.
1t was then rubbed on plates of gelatin
prepared for the culture OF bacteria, but
not single colony was developed.

Going to Gettysburg.
All the Virginia volunteers are to go
the regular troops at Gettysburg, July
1 to 9. Some 1000 members of the mill
tia will make the trip. In the csm-
mands will be several men who have
seen many years of active service and
accompanying them will be men who
have not ueen to the battlefield since the
day when they followed Pickett up the
heights.
Many active members of the various
fought in ...e battle that turned the tide
against the south. 1t will be the first
time that Virginia troops have been on
the field since the engagement, nearly
half q century ago.
It is expected that Gov. Mann, himself
a Confederate veteran, will go with the
troops. Adjt. Gen. Sale will make the
trip. Every command in the state will
go, excepting only the coast artillery,
which will go into camp at Fort Monroe
with the regulars at that place.
Fate of Schultz Murderers.
Gov. Mann has not yet disposed of the
Pines. Dorsey and Jolnson-who are in
completely in the murder of Walter
Schultz Of Chicago. Henry Smith, who
confessed the crime is also in the prison.
The governor is looking carefully into
the case. Several weeks NAV elapse be-
fore he asks any action. Attorneys for
the men are still hard at work trying to
save them, and there is a considers able
n
prison who have talked to the men that
they are guilty Of completely in the crime.
Build New Horel.
Contracts have been awarded to the
John T. Wilson Company Of Richmond
for building a new hotel here to adjoin
the Hotel Richmond. at Grace and 9th
streets. The new building will be nine
stories high. and will be Of red pressed
brick and granite. The contract price is
$299. 600
The hotel is owned by Mrs. A. D. At
kinson. who has been engaged in the no.
tel business for number of years. Mrs.
Atkinson is a wonderfully successful
woman, and manages her interests in a
ment. Work on the building will COM

Richmond is still engaged in building
operations on an extensive scale, the
number of new dwellings and business
houses now in course OF construction be-
ing larger than at any time for many
years. There is a proposition afoot to
sell the Chamber of Commerce building to
syndicate Of business men, and to re-
place it with modern tvvelve-story office

Base Ball

The fans of Great Bend have
been having a glorious time the
last week, because the team has
been winning. They took the last
game from Wellington on Thurs
day of last week four to nothing.
Then came the Pawnee braves
from Larned, and they have not
been in the way much so far. The
first game at home we win, 7 to 6
The second we win 7 to l, the
third we win 9 to 3, then we drop
ped the last game Of the series at
home to them by 4 to l. On
Tuesday the teams opened at Lar
ned, we win the game 10 to 0,
taking the second game also on
Wednesday, 3 to 2. 1t looks like
four straight games from Larned
on their own grounds. Yet some
thing might happen. We are now
out of the cellar and hope to stay
there. Out of the last eight games
played we lose only two. The
crowd last Sunday was about the
largest we ever had on the ball
park. After the Larned series our
team goes to Lyons. They will
play a transferred game here Sun
day with that team.
