Jew High I'm Catholic church.

Cardinal Kohn certainly sounds
odd. Still, 1t may be reserved to the
twentieth century to bring US such a
novelty" say the American Israelite.
"Dr. Theodore Kohn, son OF a full
blooded Jew, was in 1898 elected arch
bishop Of the Austrian diocese Of Oh
muetz, one Of the most prominent epis-
copal sees Of Christendom, which had
occasionally been occupied by men,
bers Of the imperial family, and which
for three hundred years had been re-
served to members Of the highest aris-
tocracy. In 1904 charges were fled
against him in Rome, and, while the
material was not sufficient to try him
for m~alfeasance, Plus x induced him
10 resign. The stipulations of this
compromise were never made public,
but 1t was understood that he would
be given a cardinalate. There seems.
however, to be a hitch somewhere, but
the archbishop insists on the fulfil
ment OF the promises made to him."

Milwaukee, Wis.-Twenty years ago

savings deposits, time certificates and
demand certificates. The state banks
were, on the 7th of March, the date
of the last call, carrying $49,863, 108.54
in the various accounts listed above,
and the checking and savings accounts
showed increases of about $4,000, 900
in the two months since the previous
call Of January z, and the time GER
~tificates showed a decrease Of about
$500, 900, or a net gain of a million and
a half in that time. The national
banks on March z carried $30,393,-
558.91 in all the above funds, a gain
Of about $500, 900 from the date Of
the call in January. The savings ac-

the time certificates, all the others
showing substantial gains. The people
of South Dakota show their belief in
the stability of the banks of the state

A number OF outside "building and
a companies have been filing arti,
cies of incorporation In this state, and
while they have filed their articles, the
state authorities hold that they will
have to comply with the building and
loan company laws of this state before
they can do any business. The mere
filing of their articles as such COM
panies will give them no rights to do
business under the holding. AS a lot
OF companies over the country have
been issuing contracts which 1t will
take a life time to mature, even II the
company remains in existence long
enough to mature any of it's contracts,
1t is thought best that they should be
placed on a substantial basis before
being allowed to begin business. If
the companies are all right they can
have no serious objection to placing
their business under the restrictions
demanded Of them. If they are not all
right the sooner they are called the
better for would-be investors.

curing a herd of elk, and a herd OF

no reason why larger game might not
