Bank of EngIand's Effort to Check

The United States has shipped $65,-
GOO. 600 worth of cotton to Europe
within the short space of one month,
and $4,000, 600 more is on the way.
London does not want to pay us in
gold. That is one reason why the
Bank of England has raised its rate
for discounting bills.
The Bank of England is still the
rivot Of the whole banking world.
When it does anything entirely unex-
rected-as in raising the discount rate
everybody anxiously inquiries why
To raise the bank rate thus early in
october is most unusual, and the

able men-the leading commercial!
and mercantile giants in London
who form the directorate of the Eng
rish Central Bank, know. from their
semi-ofiicial connection with the Brit
.sh Government. that something has
gone awry in High Politics? I don't
think so.
The following facts would seem to
account adequately for the Bank Of

T. The bank lost S15,OOO,OO0 gold

Berlin has been taking most of
the new South African gold away

Had Fierce Flaht With Bear.

Attacked by a bear in the jungle,
a government collector named Witty
had an exciting experience at Kowa
Kole, near Gaya, India, the other day.
Witty was on a shooting excursion
during his tour in the hawaiian sub
division and shot at the bear, which
he badly wounded. The bear then
attacked Witty, whose rife was
empty. In trying to get away he slip
ped and fell, and his rifle falling on a
rock was smashed. The animal rushed
at him and began clawing his legs
and feet which were well protected
by thick breeches and heavy boots.
Witty kicked out at 1t and caught it
in the nose. II then for the time be-
ing turned of into the jungle, only
to return to make second attack on
him Seeing the bear coming back
again the man obtained another gun
from hrs native attendant who was a
short distance away and shot the bear
in the head.

NAVY HAS OXYGEN HELMETS.

The navy department has ordered
small number of oxygen helmets to be
supplied to the submarines and to all
of the battleships which use crude oil
as fuel. In the case of the submarines
it is believed the helmets may be eff
cacious when poisonous gases are ac-
cidentally generated within the hulls,
as happened to one of the submarines
two years ago with disastrous results.
The great oil tanks in the battle
ships have been found to contain dead
ly oil fumes after they have been
emptied of their contents and it is In
tended that the helmets shall serve as
protection to the mechanics who are
Obliged to enter these tanks and com
partments. Their use also is contem
plated in the rescue of firemen or boil
er tenders overcome by bursting steam
pipes.

MARKS or GENIUS.

Representative Hrantley OF GeorgiN
likes a good story. and tells the fol-
lowing one on Carter Glass OF vir-
ginia:
Soon after I was elected to con-
gress was seated beside an old mem
Der, and he was pointing out the
celebrities in the house to me.
- See that man over there he said,
pointing to Carter Glass. Well. he is
one Of the smartest men in the house.
What has he done remarkable to
prove it?' asked
Look at him, said my friend.
! am looking at him. ! replied,
but his record is not recorded in his
face, and am no mind reader
You are not as smart as thought
you, If you see It that way he replied.
See how ugly he is? DO you mean to
tell me that you think a man so
homely could have been elected to con.
gress unless he possessed transcendent
ability? He must have been wonder
fully smart to do IT,"
And, it is said, Mr.. Glass enjoys the
Joke on himself as much as Mr.. Brant
ley does in telling it.

POTATO PEELERs DEFECTIVE.

Unless some of the wizards who are
improving upon nature can turn out a
spherical potato the navy must find a
better potato peeling machine than the
electric device now in use. The other
day the department sent out an appeal
to inventors to submit a device that
will economically pare potatoes of ir-
regular form. The official statement
declares that cit seems that the pres
ent machines do a most effective and
acceptable job on a perfectly sound
potato, but when the murphy arrives
long and slender or sawed off and
hammered down the trouble begins"

the conclusion that at the same time
that The part of the continent of North
America now occupied by the United
State was too cold for human habita-

most O. tropical climate. This is &C
cordiug TO j. W. Gldley, who lectured
the other night before the Biological
sociery of Washington at the Cosmos
club
TIL camel bone was found last year
by COpley Amory Of the National mu-
scum, and Mr.. Gidley argued that its
presence in Alaska showed a tropical
climate and showed further that at the
time the bones were laid down-be-
tween 100000 and 100000 years ago
Alaska and Asia were connected by a
land bridge across which the camels
had journeyed from the American con-
tinent to Asia, where they now are
found.

The younger boy may escape severe penalty under the age limit law; the elder at best faces sentence to the penitentiary, possibly for life, and may hang.
 The two in the county jail yester- day appeared mere lads, although the el5er bore some traces of the bitter ness that had come to him through the alleged brutaliy practised by the father toward the members Of his family and carried a certain hardness in his face that was absent in that of the younger boy.

X TAXATION
 LIVE ISSUE
Give Bond for Payment and Save Money in All Likeli- hood - How It Works and Why Condition Exists

Here is a point for the immediate , consideration of tax payers who are without realty holdings-execute q bond covering the payment of your taxes and secure privilege Of payment { until the third Monday In December. {
 The presence of the assessor in the | city the last few days has started the | bond presentation business. Inci- ! dentally it has become evident that a good many people do not know about the bond feature nor realize the fact that by making use of it they are likely to save themselves consid- erable sums on their tax payments. Here is how 1t is:
 If you have no realty your taxes are due immediately on presentation of the assessors statement which comes when he calls and makes your assess ment. The total charge he will tell you 10 produce in coin is based on last years tax rate. because the new rate is not yet made. Now, if you ask 1 the privilege of furnishing a bond. ne will furnish you with a blank and on Dayment of SC and the getting on your | bond of the signatures of two proper ty owners who are worth as much as your tax bill represents, you are ex- | empt from payment of your tax bill ,untiI the third Monday in December the date upon which property tax be- comes delinquent. In the meantime YOU have the use of the tax money, but the important point is that the chances are altogether favorable to the state end of the tax being lower this year than provided in the last years rate. In that event you are ahead the difference. Those who took advantage of this chance last year all
 saved material sums. on a $3,000 as-
 sessment, for instance the saving
 being around $40.
 The bond feature applies particu'
 larly to mercantile concerns without
 really holdings. If a mercantile cor poration or an individual engaged iE
 mercantile business has realty hold ings on the side. then the whole as.
 sessment, including store stock and realty. goes over for payment until
 the delinquent date. But if there IS
 no realty owned, then the tax on
 stock is immediately payable, and il
 paid on demand instead of delayed
 with. bond, the payee cannot recover
 diedrence that may later be made
 through a lower tax. rate.

 It was occupied by three Mexican families: Carmen Quizalda. Daniel Morelas and Trinidad Felix. There was some delay in turning in the alarm and when the department ar rived. after a fast run. he, whole building was in flames.

 The loss on the building is estimat- ed at $750, covered by $500 insurance: loss on furniture, uninsure5 $25O. $4O in bills, belonging to Miss Quizalda, one of the residents and janitress of the Orpheum theater, were partially burned. IL is believed that enough of each of the bills was saved to enable redemption.
