to his arnazement nothing but the
foundation. Unlike the clock and the
stove, however, the house was not car
ried away bodily, but bit by bit dur
ing the owners absence. Even tha
furnace was gone though how the
whole affair was carried through is !
matter of mystery. Whatever the fata
Of the thieves may be. the owner il not
likely to recover much OF his house

Two billion dollars IS the sum that
would be required to secure majority
control OF the banks of the country
and to dominate a national reserve
agency formed by these banks. accord
ing to the statement made bv Edward
d. Page. prominent member OF the
merchants association here and a
leading spirit In the movement OF
men for the promotion OF q sound
banking and currency system. Mr..
Pages computation was presented to
the monetary commission In answer
to the criticism Of James J. Hill that
an organization uniting all the banks
OF the country with power to issue
bank notes and to rediscount the pa
per held by its members would be in
danger OF falling under the control OF
some OF the big financial interests.
Aside from the fact that 1900. 600 900

entire amount OF money in circulation
in the United States and Ear beyond
the power of any coterie OF men to
command for any such purpose. Mr.
Page points out that even IL some
| financial giant were to acquire as
cendancy over the reserve agency rep
resenting the country banks, 1t would
be Of no use to him since any finan-
cial plan likely to be adopted will pre-
vent the use Of reserve funds for in
vestment In stocks and bonds and will
limit the returns on the shares OF the
association probably to 4 per cent,
That New York is really q health
and old age resort, in spite Of the gem
orally prevailing idea that the rush
OF its every day life its noises, dirt
and responsiveness tend to induce short
life, is the interesting discovery made
this week by the compilation Of a CEN
sus OF its long-lived citizens. Accord
ing to these figures no less than fifty
two persons have died here since Jan.
1, 1909, at an age exceeding the bibli-
cal limit Of three score and ten by at
least thirty years. or these fifty two
who passed at the age OF 100, the old
est lived during three centuries, dy-
ing at the age OF 1T in April OF this
year, while an age OF liz was enough
to take second place. The oldsters
seem to be hanging on well this year
for while twenty nine of them died
last year only nine OF them have
shuffied off the this year up to date.
Curiously enough only one person
among the whole list of fifty two was
a New Yorker, born and bred. She
was Mrs, Nancy Grimm who reached
the age OF los.

MARKET COMMENT OF THE DAY

Chicago, oct. 26.--Wheat: The mar
ket opened fractionally lower and rul-
ed easy in tone throughout the ses-
aion. showing very little rallying
mower. After the decline of the past
three on four days. 1t is possible that
the market may hold steady, or raliy
slightly, but we see no reason lot
any permanent Improvement as long
as the present conditions surrounding
tbe market remain unchanged. In
dications point to an increase In re-
celpts here and should such prove 70
be the case. an additional burden
would be added to an already over

TROUBLE IN MOROCCO
AS GERMANY SEES H

Berlin. July THE Lnkal Anzeigner
today makes what APPARENTLY ie an i'm
spired comment on Premier Asquith's
declaration that situation had arisen
In Morocco through which British IN
tercsts might be affected more direct
~ than heretofore. and that Great
Britain In whatever part she took In
the matter would have due regard for
the protection of those interests and
the fuf'ment of her treaty obligations
toward France.
The paper takes reassuring view Of
the English position. saying Mr.. As
quti favors policy of moderation
and calm common sense, and that his
statement indicates that the British
government will pursue a more active
policy than heretofore and be guided
by the interest of Great Britain rather
than by the Moroccan entente.
The Russian ambassador called at
the foreign office and held Il long talk
with Baron Won kiderlin Waechter. the
foreign secretary. He had been direct
ed by Emperor Nicholas to inquire In
n friendly spirit concerning Germanys
intentions In Morocco.

SHOTS EXCHANGED.
WITH BANDIT
BARTENDER OF COLUMBIA SA.
LOON HIT IN THE WRIST BY
ROBBERS BULLET.

The command of hands up" which
Is becoming d familiar sound in Mis-
soula, had no terrors for Mike Piccia,
bartender ut the Columbia saloon and
as a consequence he Is wearing a bull
let hole In his left wrist, although the
cash register remains intact. NJ ike
plcca and another Italian were alone
Gated on Railroad avenue. right by the
Brunswick bar. which was held up
Thursday evening. when a man en-
tered through the back door and com
manded them to hold up their hands.
Instead of complying with the request,
Pieeia went after his gun, which he
had strapped around his waist under
his apron. As Piccia produced the
gun. the holdup man opened fire and
put a bullet through his left wrist,
but not until piccia had taken two
shots at him. 1t Is presumed, how
ever. that neither of the bartender's
bullets took effect, as the bandit beat
a hastv retreat down Stevens street
The description of the robber con-
forms closely tn that Of one of the
men that held up the Brunswick bar
Thursday evening. Officers Vance
and 1.offness had just passed the bar
and we're at the corner when the
shooting took place. They ran back to
the saloon. but the man had gone ont
the back door, through which hc had
entered. and had disappeared.

SHOW
PLEASES
TWO LARGE AUDIENCES WIT.
NESS TWO EXCEPTIONALLY
GOOD PERFORMANCES.

IT has been II long time since there
was as good a show AZ the Sells -Floto
circus IN Misspula and circE ses have
been coming here pretty regularly
Certain 1t is, there was never Il better
show here than that which held the
attention of two great audiences yes
terdaN. II IL q quick, snappy show:
there Is something going on every
minute--sometiines there are several
things going on at once-nnd all that
goes on IL good
There's n lot Of originality about the
Sells t'loto shows, and it's the new
things that count. The preliminary
band concert was good. the grand en-
tree was impressive. the speciates
were all clever. The performance was
carried through with dash that pre-
vented the interest from Tagging "a
moment and there was nobody who was
not surprised when the end OF the long
program as reached.
II liz not easy to select any feature
of the program rs better than the
rest, the big show is SO well balanced:
but IL was probably the high school
and menage horses which wakened the
greatest enthusiasm In the audiences
yesterday. There were several of these
with the famous Rina do as the head
liner. The work of these animals was
remarkable. The trained elephants
We're quick i'm their work and did some
new stunts which were good The pair
OF baby elephants carried through a
full act Of their own which won APP
probation. The horse which goes up In
Il balloon and descends IN Il blaze Of
fireworks brought down the house-so
to speak despite the fact that he was
violating Missoula's safc-and- d-sane or
dlnanee
There were some fine bar and
trapeze artists: the slack wire work
was srperb-and II wasn't done by
Japs The riding was excellent and
the horses were the best lot Of ami
mails seen here. The stock features.
statuary posing. bicycle riding. racing
and the clowns--were all fine. The
music was better than Is ordinarily
heard mt Il tent show.
The best part of 1t all was that the
show Nas clean. There was nothing Of
fensive about any part of II. and II
went with dash that made the old
boys Just as sorry as the young boys
when the last act had been given.
