foreigners. but there is some evidence that
this virtue Is being overtaxed by great
influx of poor foreigners.
Owing to the lax immigration laws of
Denmark many criminals also have gotten
into the country. Several districts in
Copenhagen have been taken over by the
newcomers. The police maintain close
watch over the foreign quarter, watch
which Is shared by the Russian legation
and the leaders of the Danish Jewish
communion which fears that Its high
reputation may be injured by undesirable
arrivals
The greatest trouble in the new district
is caused by the meetings and pubiica-
tions of the Russian political exiles. The
matter printed in the paper published by
their union is such at times that it is a
reflection on a friendly country.
Besides the political refugees the district
shelters pronounced criminals. A gang OF
counterfeiters recently operating here
were Russians, and when the police ar
rested a few of them, between 100 and
150 tried through Russian relief commit
tees to get enough money to leave the
country. 1t is also feared that white
slavers" are making the colony their
headquarters.
The authorities are becoming so alarm
cd over the conditions that they are con-
temrIating measures to check the influx
of undesirable aliens. and in this connec-
ton several citizens have suggested an act

Cake Cause of Long Enmity

From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
Enmity resulting from a boy 10 years
of age eating his playmate's cake at a

may force the last trustee OF the old
Harmony society TO refund 100000 with
interest from 1S45.
John Rapp and John Huber were
friends in Wuertemberg until the cake

tai and Mrs. Wagner. joined Rapp
community he gave warning that what
ever he might will them must not go
to the society, but must be held under

When Huber died his fortune was OBJ

Eernier Governor ee Massacbusett'

To say that the man who will benefit
most from wise reform of our banking
system is the man without a bank account
sounds paradoxical. but l believe it is
unquestionably true. The man without
savings or other accumulated resources
has nothing to depend on but his employ
ment. II he is disempIoyed, then his
family is certain to feel the pinch of
want.
Ours is the only civilized country which
suffers from money panics. our banking
system is panic-breeder And the hrunt
of the vast misery and hardship which
panics bring fall upon the wage-earner.
1t was so in 1907. 1t has been so in every
panic we have known.

New Religious Prophet


The press of Jutland is fun of the
exploits of a new religious prophet in
the person of youthful American. He
arrived here this winter and began his
ministry in the village of Eokken, where
he soon gathered a large body of con-
verts.
Women and children constituted the
greater part of his congregation and
much feeling was aroused when he an
nounced that he would baptize his con-
verts by immersion
When the pilot owners refused to allow
him TO use the Nols sea for this pur-
pose the turf holes and small brooks were
used. The dean and bishop came and
preached against the new prophet, but
without avail. and great crowds of jeer-
ing youths gathered to watch the bap-
tsms. The man is now getting ready

Where the Difference Lie.

of means whether he pay a little more
for his shoes or his clothes or his -four.
1t may make a great deal OF difference to
the wage-earner. 1t may even mean the
difference to him between reasonable COM
fort and the pinch of poverty. And here.
again. as in everything else, reform of
our banking system means more to him
than to any other man.
| repeat that the wage-earner suffers
more than any other man from the
shortcomings OF our present monetary
system. The man without a bank ac-
count is its most helpless victim. One
need not be a financial expert to per-
ceive that the trouble arises from the
paralysis of credit due TO the locking
up. at the first hint of trouble, of cash
reserves, and TO the destruction of the
ordinary market for the securities
which serve as the basis OF credit. With
the greatest resources OF any country
in the world, with the largest accumu-
lation of gold in the world. it isa5bN ious
that we need only establish a bank
ing system under which credit may be
made more widely and uniformly avail
able. and note issues, protected by
sound securities and by gold, may rea-
sonably expand when business condi-
tions require ii.
Thus we might prevent the periodic
breakdown Of our credit system. with
the attendant trial OF suffering. vio-
lence and disgrace which every panic
brings us. Thus we might best protest
the workingman, who Is the backbone
of our economic system, and to whom
We owe SO much OF our prosperity it
is to his interest, most of all. that wc
reform, our antiquated banking system.

ENGINEER is ACQUITTED
Caused Loss of 40 Lives on July q by
Running Past Signals.

Hornell, N. Y, June 19.-William
H. Schroeder, engineer of the Della
ware, Lackawanna & Western rail-
road, was acquitted tonight of the
charge of manslaughter in connec-
ton with the wreck at Corning July
when 40 passengers were killed.
He was quashed on the recommends
ton of former District Attorney Ed
win c. Smith, who was a candidate
for Surrogate. He was reindicted
after w. H. Truesdale, president of
the railroad, had written Governor
Sulzer that the indictment had been
quashed as the result of political
bargain"
The accident occurred shortly af-
ter daybreak on the morning of Jul
ly 4. A freight train stalled at Glib
sons, two miles east of Corning, held
up passenger train No. 9, bearing ex-
ira coaches of excursionists from
New York to Buffalo. Signals were
set against westbound traffic a mile
east of the stalled trains. Schroeder
who was running a fast merchan-
disc express train. passed two sets
OF semaphores, 5000 feet apart, a
flagman and a fusee and crashed in
to the rear of the passenger train at
a rate of so miles an hour. His
train tore through two day coaches
and half way through a sleeping car.
The prosecution endeavored to
show that on the night of July Sch
roeder was intoxicated and that he
did not have sufficient sleep before
taking his run. His attorney in sum
ming up for him today stated that
to prove the charge of manslaughter
the allegation of intoxication had TO
be established. This, he claimed,
had not been done.
There was no evidence to show
that the quashing of the original in
dictment was the result of "politi-
cal bargain" although railroad wit
nesses testified to activity in the DO
litical campaign. The trial lasted
nine days.

BATTLING SPIDERS.
When They Fight II lie Really Com

When They Fight II lie Really Com
bat For Existence.
When two or more spiders fight there
is usually a good reason for the fu-
rious attack and vigorous defense that
aleays follows.
1t is not generally known that after
certain time has elapsed spiders be
come incapable of spinning web from
lack of sufficient material. The glut-
nous substance from which the spider
spins its slender web is limited There
fore, spiders cannot keep on construct
ing new snares for their prey when the
old webs are destroyed.
Very often when the web material
is exhausted they are able TO avail
themselves of the web producing pow
ers Of their younger or more fortunate
neighbors, and this they do without
any scruple whatever.
As soon as Il spiders web constructs
ing material has become exhausted and
its last web destroyed, it usually sets
out In search Of another home and
unless II should find one that Is unoc-
cupied a battle usually ensues, which
ends only with the retreat or death Of
the invader or defender.
Such a struggle is intensely interest
ing and will reveal some wonderful
tactics aud skill in spider warfare. The
invader usually comes Off victorious,
although in some cases the defender
puts up such stiff fight 1t is able TO
hold its own in spite of the attack of
the intruder which is in desperate
straits.-New York American.
