LIGHTNING sHUNs WOMEN.
Statistics Show Men Are More Likely
To Be Struck.

Statistics appear to show that men
are more likely to be struck by light
ming than women, more than two
men being killed by it for every wo-
man. But the London Chronicle
points out that the mans occupation
IS more likely to take him into the
open when lightning is about. 1t
has been observed, however, that in
a group equally composed of both
sexes lightning seems to prefer the
men, and we may theorize at pleas
ure as to whether it is the compare
tive hight that does it, or some pro-
lection afforded by the woman s
dress, or a difference in conductibil-
ity between the sexes. The fact that
children are seldom killed by light
ming supports to a certain extent the
first of these theories.

CURRENCY MATTER
Still UP IN AIR
NEW PROVISION WRITTEN INTO
BILL IN SENATE COMMITTEE
CAUSING NEW TANGLE.

Washington, Nov. 5.-An entirely |
new feature was tentatively written
into the administration currency bill
Wednesday by the Senate committee
after full day of heated wrangle. The
new plan was characterized by Chair
man Owen, chief administration sup
porter in the committee, as "equiva-
lent to a central bank" He said that
the committee adjourned with the mat
ter up in the air."
The new schedule would provide for
the Capitalization of one-half of the
reserves to be held by the regional
banks in the proposed new system.
This proposition would be placed I'M
der the complete control of the FEEDER
al Reserve Board, and would be located
| in Washington, to be administered for
the aid and convenience of the entire
/ banking system. AS finally voted upon,
the proposition was a modification OF
plan proposed by Senator Reed of
Missouri, who suggested it as means
of composing the wide differences
among members of the committee
Senator Reed and Senator Hitchcock
joined with the Republicans in voting
for the plan, which was opposed by
Senators owen. Pomerene, Hollis,
O'Gorman and Shafroth.
Senator Owen was agitated over the
progress of affairs in the committee.
After the vote on the Reed proposal
he declared that if given an opportuni-
ty, he would demonstrate that the plan
would not work. Senator Reed de
clared he was willing to be convinced
and it was arranged that Senator owen
T. should make an argument on the point
today.

sources of the various regional banks

CHINESE TO HANG FOR MURDER.
Portland Ore, Nov. 6.-After a
legal fight extending over period of
five years Lem Woon alias Lum Suey,
a Chinese, who was convicted of muir
dering Lee Tai Hoy on March I, 1908,
during a tong war, will be hanged a
week from today, unless Governor
West should see fit for some reason
to grant a reprieve. Lem Woon was
originally tried in the summer of 1908
and Circuit Judge Bronaugh sentenced
him to hang on November 20, of that
year. The condemned mans lawyers
| appealed first to the state supreme
court and from that to the United
States supreme court, basing their ap
peal upon the fact that the defendant
was tried on an information after tn,
legislature had provided for indict
ments, but before the law became ef
fective. The conviction was uphel,
in both higher courts and it is believe
that the legal resources of the dc
Tense are exhausted. At the count
Jail everything is put in readiness 70

that the Governor will interfere wit
the execution of the sentence.
