ReVOlveFS.

The first patent for a revolving firearm, or revolver, was issued to Samuel Colt seventy eight years ago today. Colt, the centenary of whose birth will be celebrated at Hartford, Conn. next July, was a sailor boy when. in 1929. he conceived the idea of a pistol with a rotating chamber ed breech, and carved a model from wood. In 1885 he secured patents on his invention in the United States, England and France, and succeeded in persuading some New York capi- taIIsts to take an interest in the com pany he formed for manufacturing revoIvers. The concern, which had a capital of sS00.O0O. established a plant in Paterson, N. J., operating un- der the names of the Patent Arms Co. Colts revoIvers were first used in warfare in 1887, when a number sof the troops engaged in the Florida war were armed with the new wea- pons. The first company failed in 1s42, and no more revolvers were Manufactured until the outbreak of the war between the United States and Mexico. when Colt received an or der for 1000 revolvers. and manufac- tured them in a temporary workship near New Haven. The exodus to Cal ifornia in 1S49 created a large de- mand for the firearms, and Colts es- tabIished a new factory in Hartford in 1850, which was immediately suc- cessfuI

TransvaaI Raid Recalled.

Sir Leander Starr Jameson, the famous ''Dr. Jim Jameson of the Transvaa1 raid, was born in Edin- burgh, sixty years ago. Today is the eighteenth anniversary of the cele- brated raid, which began Dec. 29, 1895, and in which John Hays Ham mond, the eminent American engi- neer, was one of his ardent support CTS in the attempt to overthrow the Kruger regime. Jameson soon sur rendered to the Boers, and was turn ed over to the English authorities, who sentenced him to ten months Imprisonment. After the South Afri- can war, in which he took part, Dr. Jameson was knighted, became Pre- nier of Cape Colony, and last June was elected President of the Char tered Company of South Africa, sue oeeding the Duke of Abercorn.

Queen Elizabeth of Roumania.

Queen Elizabeth of Roumania, the Carmen Sylva'' of many volumes of delightful novels, dramas, stories and fairy tales, was born in Neuwied, Germany, just three score and ten years ago today. Her birthday is within one day of being the same as that of pr. Woodrow Wilson, the lit erary President of the United States, who passed his fifty-seventh milestone oHs Sunday. Among the occupants of thrones and the presidents of the world, the Roumania Queen and the American President are among the very few who have accomplished great things in the domain of letters. President PoinCare of France and King Nicholas of Montenegro have each written a few books, and several other princes and presidents have made brief incursions into literature, but they are not in the same class with Carmen Sylvia" or the eA- .'prexy'' of Princeton
 Queen EIizabeth's father was the late Prince Hermann of wied, and her mother was Princess Maria of Nassau. She was twenty-five when she married Prince Carol, or Charles, son of Prince Anthony of Hohenzol- Tern, who, three years before, had been elected Lord of Roumania When Elizabeth took up her residence in Bucharest, Roumania was a vassa1 of Turkey. In 1877 the people, as- sembled in the capital, proclaimed themselves free and independent, and in 1881 Carol and Elizabeth were crowned King and Queen of Rou- mania From her youth, when she travelled extensively, the Queen was interested in literature, and wrote occasional verses and stories, but it was not until 1890 that she won wide Queen This was followed by Ed Ieen Vaughan" shadows on Life's DiaI,'' "A Real Queens Fairy Book,' and many other volumes.
 A few months ago the Roumania Queen contributed an interesting ar ticle to a London magazine, bearing the title, elf I Were a MiI1ionaire'' One of the first things she would do, she declared, would be to build cathedral with chapels for every re- ngion in it, and arts school be- sides. The edifice would be Of white marble, like that of Milan, inside and out; not so ornamented, much quiet CT than Milan, but with columns that would give the feeling of a beech wood" She added:

 The fire was still spreading at II o'clock this morning. It was feared the flames would attack the military barracks which were ordered evacuat- ed by the troops.

MONEY PANICS
 MADE IMPOSSIBLE
TT. T.. watson & Co.,

CT. l.. Watson & Co.)
 The event of the week was the plac- ing of the Banking and Currency Reform bill on the statute books. Hap piIy-and largely owing to the efforts of Senator Root and the minority the measure as it came from . the House was improved in the final 6lis- cussion in the Senate and the confer ence of the two Houses made further improvements on the Senate draft. A great step has been taken in the di- rection of a banking system that will make a panic like 1907 practically inn possible. If the President appoints men of expert knowledge and high character to the newly-created Fed era1 Reserve Board, which is to man age the new organization of credit fa- cilities, the outlook for business bet terment will be greatly improved.
