We know from Pepys and from pas

ter audiences in the restoration epoch
were not nice, but there Is no reason
to believe that even the tops habitual-
ly arrived at the theater late. Mr..
SparkiSh, Mr. Novel and their fellows
would talk loudly while the play was
going on TO show the superiority Of
their wit to the poets but they likely
were on hand early to lose none of the

BANKERS RAP
CURRENCY BILL
Only One in 5000 Opposes Pro;
test Against Measure.
SUGGEST MANY CHANGES
Country Bankers Were SO lnsistent In
Opposition to Bill They Named Com.
mittee to Go to Washington.

Boston, Oct. 9.-With only one dis
senting voc 5000 delegates attending
the annual convention of the Ameri-
can Bankers association went on rec
ord as opposed to the Owen-Glass cur
rency bill as it now stands.
With but one delegate opposing, the
convention, representing $4,000 mem
bers, consisting OF banks, trust COM
panies, state banks and bankers, heart
lily endorsed the work of its currency
commission toward having the propos-
ed currency bill modified.
The candidacy of William A. Law,
first vice president Of the First Ma
tional bank, of Philadelphia, for first
vice president OF the association, is
gaining rapid Roadway. During the
past spring and summer the candidacy
OF Mr.. Law was endorsed by state
bankers associations in various parts
of the country, and since Monday the
number of delegates who are pledged
to his candidacy has been considerably
increased.
The association urged upon congress
the necessity OF Incorporating into the
currency bill the amendments recon-
mended at the Chicago conference of
bankers held last August, all of which
have been presented to the senate
committee on banking and currency,
which now has the bill in hand. The
resolutions closed by commencing the
action of the president, the secretary
of the treasury and congress for their
efforts to give the country an elastic
and sound currency, and pledged their
hearty support towards the enactment
of such legislation.
Men representing all political parties
were present and took part in the de-
alterations and the fact that they vot-
ed as a unit shows plainly how bank
ers feel on this important question.
One was impressed with the spirit
and earnesiness which marked the
proceedings. The meeting was virtually
a country bankers convention. They
were much in evidence, and far ex-
ceeded in numbers the bankers from
the so-called reserve cities, and the
country bankers were insistent in their
opposition to the provisions of the
bill, in fact, so much so that they have
delegated a committee to carry their
objections to Washington. If there was
any doubt before as to the attitude of
the country bankers towards the bill
that doubt has now been dispelled.

EVIDENCE IN
A PICTURE
By F. A. Mitchell

Touring on foot along the coast OF
France between St Nazaire and La
Rochelle, sketching by the way,
came to a picturesque spot where
stood a cottage. A boy often came and
looked on while l worked. I was
tempted to cease my landscape draw

never saw a finer model Of child Of
that age. l chatted with him and
learned that he lived in the cottage
with his mother, a widow; that his "a

til his fathers death few years be-
fore the family had lived In a chateau.
Curious to know something more Of
the story, asked the boy II he would
present to his mother the compliments

Stretching tour and beg shelter for the
night under her roof. he ran away
with my message and soon returned to
say that his mother would be happy

other equipment and, singing the
package ON my shoulder, accompanied
the child to his home.

a aristocratic looking as her son. l
told her that my curiosity had been
excited by her boy as to her family
story, and If it would be no intrusion
upon her feelings would like to know
mora of it. She made me welcome
and gave me the facts.
She had married late In life man
much older than herself who was both
rich, high born and in every way
prominent. One child. my little friend
CASTOR, had been born to them at a
time when 1t was supposed that she
was too old to bear a child Her hus-
bands brother, who had been looking
forward to inheriting the estate, had
shown from the birth Of CASTOR that
he was bitterly disappointed at being
supplanted. But he gave no sign Of
any intention to dispute the success
sion till after the death Of her hus-
band year agone.
N. Clairmont had scarcely been In
TERED when his brother, Martin Clair
mont, claimed the property on the
ground that CASTOR was not his son
nor the son Of his wife, but the child
Of one Annette Voudray, laundress,
who had been brought into the cha
teau to be palmed or as the child OF
Nine Clairmont. The claimant OBJ
tatned from this woman what purport-
d to be q confession to that effect.
There was trial that was dragged
through the courts for two years; then
the highest court confirmed the deci-
sions Of the lower ones, deciding IN
favor Of Martin Clairmont, giving him
his deceased brothers estate and Gas
