STRANGE OLD CURRENCY

1t is not generally known historical
fact that from 1774 to 1884 territory
now known as Tennessee formed part
of North Carolina, and that in 1875 the
Tennesseans becoming dissatisfied with
their government, organized state
government under the name of Frank
land" which was maintained for some
years. The state thus organized was
afterward disbanded and territorial Ten
nessee was again annexed to North
Carolina, says a recent writer on the
subject.
In 1888, in a speech by Daniel Web
ster on the currency, he gave the fol-
lowing as among the laws passed by the
state of Frankland:
"Be it enacted by the general as
sembly of the state of Frankland, and
it is hereby enacted by the authority of
the same, that from January II, 1889,
the salaries of this commonwealth be as
follows:
His EXcelency, the Governor, per
annum, 1000 deerskins.
His Honor the Chief Justice per an
mum 500 deerskins. The secretary to
His Excellency the Governor per annum
800 raccoon skins.
The Treasurer of the State, 450 rae
coon skins.
Each country Clerk, 300 beaver skins.
Clerk of House of Commons, 200 rae.
coon skins.
Members of the Assembly, per diem
three raccoon skins.
Justice fees for signing a warrant, one
muskrat skin.
To the Constable for serving a war
rant, one mink skin.

VERY FEW SOFT-SHELL CRABS

Gourmets who hail the summer be-
cause it usually brings the delectable
soft-shell crab into season are alarmed
over the possible disappearance of that
delicacy from restaurant bills of fare,
or at least its retention at prices which
except to the rich must be prohibitive.
In Maryland, where the catching and
shipment of soft-shell crabs has become
an important industry IN the last ten
years and has made fortunes in Cfisfeld,
the centre of the crab business, the
alarm is acute. The crab is threatened
with extinction.
The Chesapeake Bay is the greatest
breeding ground for edible shellfish in
the world. and there the American
crab, a different creature from the
shell-fsh of the same name that is
taken from the ocean, has its habitat.
The Shrewsbury produces few in pro-
portion to the great area of water that
is almost encircled by Maryland and
Virginia.
Swepson Earle, Engineer of the
Maryland Shellfish Commission, esti-
mates that the annual value of the
catch in the Chesapeake runs into mill
lions of dollars. This profitable indus
try is threatened with extinction be-
cause of the lack of protection legis-
lation, and because of the difference in
the way Maryland and Virginia attempt
to regulate the fishing in such portions
of the great bay as come under their
respective jurisdictions.
Virginia has pursued selfish policy
to her fishery legislation, while Mary
land has been mistakenly liberal, or else
her her laws have left loopholes which
makes their enforcement next to i'm.
possible. The boundary between the
two states is the low water mark on
the south sidN of the Potomac river.
Yet for many years Maryland has al
lowed Virginia to use the whole river
in common with her own citizens, Vir.
ginia has given nothing in return.

MIDDLErowN, DEL, SEPT. A, 1915
WHEN DEATH is NEAREST

According to facts compiled by
scientists we are closest to death at
about 3 O'Clock every morning. At
that hour all night-sleeping humans and
animals give little means, awaken par
TALLY or wholly. and then either drop
back into either siumber or death.
Physical giants among men and lions
among animals have this experience,
just as do the frailest babes or the
weakest kittens. Viewed from every
point this fact is remarkable. Why
doesn't this period come at midnight, or
a. M, 2 a. M, or in the case of late
sleepers, 7 or o'clock g. m ?
1t is at the hour of 3, however, that
most active of the vital organs of night
sleeping humans and animals come the
nearest to stopping or running down.
They come so near it that if they came
a breath-an atom-nearer it, they
would stop. In welcoming the hour of
sleep you unconscously welcome death S
most advantageous time for conquering
you. Every moment you are asleep your
physical self is running unmatched
by the engineer. The supply of coal
(food) for the furnace is withheld. The
steam (blood) in the pipes runs low.
This neglect of the engine rooms con-
tinues until about a. M, when the
machinery all but stops.
In the healthy or fairly healthy body
the coming of this moment produces a
shock to the system, which unconsciously
causes you to throw out your arms and
legs, rub your nose violently, moan,
take deep breath and turn over. Your
doing this practically saves your life, as
it gives fresh impetus to the almost
stopped action of the heart, which in
turn restores the well-nigh stopped cir
culation throughout your body.
The moan and deep breath quickened
the action of the lungs and reused them
TO their usual rate of speed. The rest
that the organs had received by being
allowed to almost run down enables
them, with the restarting administered
by the o'clock commotion, to success
fully begin another days run.
1t is not known what causes the little
shock that carries us successfully over
the bridge of death, although there are
many theories about it. But they are
only theories. The percentage ofdeath
at this fateful moment exceeds that of
any other moment in the twenty-four
hours, and the death rate of aged people
who die at o'clock in the morning is ap-
pallingly in excess of the death rate for
any other hour in the day. In case of
sickness, the physician breads the hour
of 8 a. m. to arrive. It. is the most
momentus hour of our lives.

U. S. ARMY OF 100000

An American army with minimum
war strength of 600, 600 men and ever
increasing reserve, three classes of
military training-in the regular army,
in the continental army and in the mill
tia artillery, aeroplanes and other
war equipment adequate to the size of
the army; military storehouses in every
section of the country; cooperation
with the public schools, colleges and
universities in training boys and men
for military service; occasional mobili-
zation.
These are said to be the outstanding
features of Secretary of War Garrison 8
for the vitalization of our land defense.
The secretary has embodied his plan in
long letter addressed to President
Wilson. If it gets his approval it will
be made public by the White House
next week as the administration pro-
gram for increased army defense.
Army officials expect the president to
approve the plan in its present form,
since it represents the expert thought
of the army heads fitted to the civilian
views of Mr.. Garrison.
The army believes that this plan is
the last step that can be taken by the
government without actually compelling
army service. If the Garrison plar
fails, the Experts say, then the United
Statesy be in for compulsory military
train pr, as the army calls it
''tii. Al'' or "equal' service. TIL,
Garrison plan contemplates the main
tenances of an American standing army
of 2neeO0O men.
