Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1911-09-23

WASHINGTON Recently there has
w been distinct revival here of in
terest in banking and currency legisla-
ton. There are at least three reasons
for this, which may be enumerated as
follows
1. The announcement that an organ
tzation to be known as the National
Citizens league is being formed to ad-
vocate some sort of federal reserve as
sociation.
2. The organization in New York
city of the National City company,
with capital stock of $4,000, 900, as an
adjunct of the National City bank, and
for the purpose of acquiring and hold
ing stock in other banks.
8. The movement on the part of the
insurgent Republicans in the senate,
and supported by some of the Demo
Gratis, to compel the national monetary
commission to close it's affairs and re-
port to congress not later than jan
uary 1, 1912.
The activities mentioned would in
dictate that banking and currency leg
islation will become a live topic in the
autumn, and probably will receive
much attention at the next long ses-
sion Of congress 1t is not believed,
however, there will be any legislation

Pacific Coast Has a Customs Scandal

Al investigation of alleged under
"A valuation frauds involving several
millions of dollars has been instituted
by the customs authorities at the port
of San Francisco, Cal Disclosures
which, 1t Is said, will eclipse in mag
nitude the recent customs frauds ex-
posed in New York. are promised by
the federal officials. The Investigation
centers around some of the biggest
importers of Oriental wares in the
United States, and 1t Is alleged that
some government officials are In
vo1ved
The government activity includes
the principal seaports of the entire
Pacific coast and extends to Japan,
where secret service agents have been
busy for the last few months amass-
ing evidence of the alleged frauds
Held at the custom house In San Fran
cisco there are at present 500 cases
of Oriental wares consigned to a sim
gle firm The goods, which consist
principally of crockery, alleged to be
vastly undervalued, are being held
pending the determination as to exact

cheesecloth on which paper leaves are
pasted or pinned. If a grape arbor
can be constructed, tea and other
beverages or light refreshments may
be served from small tables under
meath the enclosure thus made Elec-
trio lights placed among the leaves
adds to the effect If the affair is held
over into the evening. At the end
or the arbor, have grape Juice, grape
jelly and rafsins for sale.
Here Is the list of trees which may
be arranged around the room as best
suits the committees: 1.-The Pair

that comes in pairs, like scissors, tied
with ribbons, slippers, emitted or GRO

pears. pear marma1ade, canned pears.
pear-shaped candy boxes.
The Peach TreeeDecorate with real
peaches, which may be tied to the
branches If a real bearing tree rs not
obtafnable. On the table serve peach
ice cream, peach shortcake, MARINA
lade, spiced peaches, etc.
The Palm Tree has real palms do
mated by florist, to be sold on COM
mission, and back of the palms have
fortune teller.
The Orange Tree is literally covered
with orange-colored paper fruit, each
containing an article worth Eve or ten
cents; this takes the place of the
grab bag found at most church affairs.
1t may be presided over by quite a
young girl and should prove a lucra-
tive attraction, az it's fruit will be
all clear profit The table next this
should contain orange marmalade,
candied orange peel. orange-colored
bon-bons and orange cake. Orange
ice may be served, also orangeade.
For the Banana Tree have punches
of real bananas; In cities banana
shaped candy boxes are obtainable.
The Date Tree will have all sorts of
calendars, engagement tablets, note
Books, telephone lists, diaries, in fact,
everything with which to make or
keep a date. Sell stuffed dates, plain
dates, date cake, etc., on the table in
front of the tree. Suspend small arti-
cies from it's branches.
The Sugar Plum Tree will have
candy canes hung on its branches,
bags of candy, and all sorts of lolli-
pops and sweetmeats for sale.
A lemon tree may be added, or any
others at the discretion of those in
charge.

THE special session of congress
i came to an end with many inves-
LEGATIONS unfinished, leaving many of
the committees that were conducting
inquiries to report next winter.
When the senate voted to conduct a
second investigation into the election
of Senator Lorfmer, the expectation
was that the inquiry could be finished
in time for report from the commit
tee at the special session, but the best
this committee hopes for is to be pre-
pared to make its report when con-
gress reassembles on the first Mon
day in December.

Plans for the Canal Fortifications

GIBRALTAR may be robbed of the
VI distinction of being the most i'm
pregnable fortress in the world If the
plans of the fertilization board in the
Panama canal zone are adopted. AS
a preliminary, looking toward this end,
the war department has ordered the
16inch gun now stored at Sandy Hook
proving ground to the canal zone.
Although the gun was constructed ten
years ago, no more powerful weapon
has been produced In the world Its
range is beyond 16 miles and It's pro-
tecttles, aero-torpedoes, weigh 2,400
pounds, and could easily destroy a
battleship before it reached a point
near enough to do damage to the canal
locks or other portions of the water
way. Later on more guns of this cal
fber will be placed there.
Super-dreadnaughts, according to the
calculations of ordinance experts, can
be sunk easily by the 16-inch gun at
distances of 16 miles from the mouth
of the canal This is not the limit of
the range of the great gun, but it is
about as far as "hits" can be made
The projectile of the gun is virtually
an aero-torpedo. 1t will weigh 2,400
pounds and will carry about $50 pounds
of high explosives. There is not the
least doubt that even at an extreme

Social Distinction.

In some parts of the south the
darkies are still addicted to the old
style country dance in big hall. with
the fddlers, banjoists and other mu-
sfcians on the platform at one end.
AT one such dance held not long
ago in an Alabama town, when the
f1dd1ers had duly resined their bows
and taken their places on the plat
form the floor manager rose.

mented with precious stones and fill
gree of gold and silver.
The largest bell in the world Is
known as the Tsar Kolokel. There is
an interesting history surrounding it.
When 1t had been cast, attempt was
made to hang 1t so that 1t might be
rung, but, by an unhappy chance, 1t
broke from its supports and fell to
the ground, wherein 1t made a great
hole into which it sank and lay for
many years. Finally, after more than
a hundred years of oblivion, it was
raised and placed in a public square
in Moscow, where it now stands. This
bell weighs more than 100000 pounds,
and is more than ID feet in height
and 60 feet in circumference.
There is a bell in northern China
which has been ringing without inter
mission for 100 years. The natives
believe that at every stroke of the
bell a devil is exercised from their
midst. A special tax has been levied
to support those who make business
of ringing this bell. 1t is rung by a
system of relay teams that keep re-
placing one another.
The history of bells is very interest
ing. They are usually connected with
important periods in a nations exist
ence. They have inspired much of the
worlds best poetry. One of the most
harmonic lyrics, THE Bells" by Ed
gar Allen Poe, was inspired by the
ringing of church bells near his home
Father Prout's beautiful lyric, The
Bells of Shandon," was inspired by
the bells near Cork, Ireland. Bells
that ring at scheduled periods in GER
tain communities become, as 1t were
a living part of the community.

Confronted by Currency Legislation

soon The prevailing view Is that 1t
will take congress several years to de
eide what it wishes to do about the
creation of a national reserve asso-
citation
1t is evident that the conservative
Republicans in congress will have
plan of their own; that the insurgent
Republicans will have views which
they will wish to embody in a bill,
and that the Democrats also will de-
sire to present a measure. So 1t
would seem that there is likely to be
much discussion of various plans dur
ing the next IL months. Neither po-
litical party will, 1t is assumed, be
ready to proceed with this subject on
the eve of a presidential campaign.
Persons who have been here recent
ly representing the bankers that are
particularly interested in the forma-
ton of the citizens league, say the
league hopes to be able to establish
branches in every city of consequence
in the country by December 1. A par
ticular effort is to be made to interest
business men, merchants, manufactur
ers, and others. The promoters of this
organization seem to have an impress
sion that If they can bring about the
formation of branches of the league in
the cities of the country, they will be
able to wage a campaign in favor OF
legislation that will impress itself on
senators and representatives in con-
gress. AT any rate, large plans are
being made. This league also intends
to work with the view of keeping the
subject out of politics, as much as pos
sible.

A orown-Up Party for Children.

Children's parties for grown-ups
have been very popular and now the
youngsters from six to eight years of
age are having loads of fun by giving
limitations of mothers afternoon teas.
Real grown-up names are chosen, writ
ten on cards which are presented to
the youthful butler, and all the youth
full guests are dressed in long skirts.

series of the grand DANES who go to
teas" and bridges" If desired some
of the guests may be asked to bring
their children (dolls). Arrange a tea
table. a small one, of course, with doll
china, and have the little hostesses'
friends assist in "pourin.'' Dainty
sandwiches. cambria tea, peppermint
bonbons, vanilla Ice cream and angel
food cake will make a satisfactory
menu. A visit to the toy department
will reveal some very interesting
card games within the comprehension
of the guests and prizes may be
given. If this feature is not prac-
teal, the children will have a grand
time in just being permitted to dress
up and go to party.

range of Is or 16 miles the projectile
will penetrate the heaviest armor plate
on the largest battleship. After the
projectile has passed through the
armor plate the $50 pounds of high ex-
plosives which 1t contains will be dis
charged. The defamation would create
miniature earthquake and destroy
city.
What is sought by the war depart
ment and the joint board is to equip
the Notifications with such powerful
guns that the enemy's fleet can be
kept so far from the canal that 1t
cannot drop shells or projectiles into
the waterway. A large projectile fired
over the Notifications dropped into
one of the locks or dams might close
up the canal for a year or so. The
forces on the canal must not only keep
the enemy from reducing the fortifica-
tons but from doing damage to the
waterway.

When the Minister scored.

In a contribution to the Christian
Register Thomas r. Slicer tells this:
Some men the other night, in con-
versation with me, knowing 1 was a
minister-and it is the spirit of this
time to put 1t up to a minister In
terms at least of gentle satire-said:
We have been discussing conscience,
and one of them said, l have given a
definition of conscience; it is the YER
micular appendix of the SOUL and they
laughed. And l said, That is a good
definition in your case; you never
know you have it until it hurts you
Then they did not laugh"

A Tree Bazaar.

All the Ladies' Aids and Guilds are
keen after ideas to add money to the
treasury. I think the scheme outlined
a delightful one for this season of the
year. 1t calls for eight trees, which
may be dead ones or live ones, as the
case may be. Decorate entirely with
large potted plants and autumn leaves
with wild grape vine and woodbine if
obtainable. The crepe papers that
come in leaf design will work in
beautifully. with this decoration and
an entire arbor or lattice may be
made by cutting out paper leaves and
pinning on the tre1lis. Oleanders ard
rubber plants help out, too.
Tables may be placed in front of
the trees, making booths, the top,
