BUSINESS IMPROVING,
OFFICIAL FIGURES SAY.
Railroads Earn More Than Year Ago
Treasury Balance Expands.

With the decision of the federal
court that the United States Steel cor
poration Is not O trust it is confidently
expected that business will now quick
ly take big leaps.
That conditions are greatly improved
is emphasized by a statement by Comp
troller Of the Currency Williams show
ing that on May 81 the A~ldrich-Vree-
land emergency currency still outstand-
ing aggregated only S2,50S,940 out of
the 1888, 5O2,645 originally issued. This
outstanding currency Is held largely by
banks in the cotton states.
A report by the interstate commerce
commission shows that the net reve-
nues of the great railroads for April
were 1921 1908 as against $30,322, 791
for April, 1914 The gross revenues
were 100000 less, but the operative
expenses were 5000 900 less.
Secretary McAdoo and other officials
of the treasury department are conf
dent that the turning point has come
IN national finances and that by July
II there will be in the general treasury
fund a working balance OF at least
S1O0,OO0,O00.

BRYAN AS AN GARNER
FORMER SECRETARY CAN MAKE
Sf4O,O0O A YEAR.

Washington. June LITTLE ire
mendous earning power of William
j, Bryan as a platform lecturer on
the chautauqua circuit is not gener-
ally appreciated by the public. An
estimate was made by the manager
of a lyeeum bureau, a man of wide
experience who has managed the lee
lure tours of many public men.
Based upon Mr.. Bryan's present scale
Of prices, he shows that by diligently
devoting his attention to the chau-
tauquas and lyceums the former sec
rotary OF state can earn nearly $140,-
900 a year.
With Mr.. Bryan's physical strength
and great vitality it is possible for
him to deliver three lectures a day
and he has done this upon more than
one tour. This, however, would re-
quire careful booking, with short
jumps between towns. But it is en-
tirely feasible, ii is stated, to book
him throughout the chautaudua sum
mer season Of about fourteen weeks
so that he can make two lectures a
day except Sunday. OF a total of
twelve a week.
1t is known generally among the
lyceum bureaus that Mr.. Bryan's
terms are as fellows: He receives a
guarantee of $3.50 for each lecture.
After that amount is taken in at the
gate he and the management divide
the remainder, each taking half.
Under this arrangement Mr.. Bryan's
share sometimes runs over $500 for
a lecture, but it will average $3.50
through the season, it is estimated.
This would give him a gross income
Of $4,000 a week, or $5S,S00 for the
chautauqua season of fourteen weeks.
In the remaining th%irty-eight
weeks Of the year this lyceum man
ager estimated that Mr.. Bryan could
average six lectures a week easily,
which would give a gross income of
S2,100 a week, or $79,S00 for the
thirty-eight weeks. This added TO
the $5S,800 for the chautauqua sea-
son would give him a gross income
for the year of S13S,6 500. His ex-
penses would be very small outside
of his personal travelling expenses.
From these figures it will be seen
Mr.. Bryan, in laying down his com
mission as secretary of state with its
$4,000 salary, is not making any FIN
ancial sacrifice. He could rest half
the year and still have IN income
nearly as large as that of the presi-
dent Of the United States.

GIRL PREACHER WINS FAME
child Who "Died and Came Back
Seems Suddenly Inspired.

Mary Mccain. thirteen, of Lohgview,
Miss, IA girl evangelist, is leaping into
fame all over the south as the child
preacher who died. Went to heaven
and came back"
Physicians shake their heads when
told that Mary died and came back,
but her parents are emphatic that
Mary was dead. She had no pulse, her
heart was not beating. ana her body
was cold and rigid, they declare.
The following morning. when her
body was to be embalmed. Mary Nc
Cain came back to life when her

BODY FOUND
Indian Woman Was Lost i'm Snow
Storm Last Spring Near Waubay.

Waubay, June LITTLE body of
Mary Deer, Indian, the squaw of
Louis Deer, was found in a slough
yesterday north of Blue Dog lake.
Mrs. Deer was lost during a severe
snow storm in the early part of the
spring, and although a search was
continued for many days, the missing
IN could not be found.
On the day of the storm Mrs. Deer
started from her home to visit an
other Indian woman who was ill, and
who had a baby but a few days old.
IL was showing lightly when she left
home, but an hour after her depart
ure, the wind came up. and in an
other 80 minutes one of the worst
storms hat has visited this section of
the state in many years was on.
1t Is thought that Mrs. Deer wan
dered from the trail. and in the blind
ing storm lost her bearings when the
wind shifted from the north to the
northwest.
The body was found by a party of
fishermen. There was barely sufh-
cient remnants of clothing found to
enable identification.

of State Regent Frank Anderson,
who took up the matter with the SUI
perintendent at the Spearfsh hatch
cry several months ago. The fact
that Pickerel lake is spring fed and
deep prompted the superintendent TO

THE classes of 1915 and 1916 and

Q be supplying the Germans with
their usual quota of good men, and it
would be a fallacy 10 suppose that the
German operations will be any more
hampered this present year by a lack
of men than by a lack of munitions
and food.
The Germans do not lack the means
TO continue the campaign vigorously.
Nevertheless 1t must not be forgotten
that the German casualties have been
ten times those of the British. and the
strain of fighting simultaneously on
two fronts has been immense.
mo nation can go on losing seven
mel a minute day and night. The
original German army disappeared long
ago. Their supply of men is not ex
hausted, but TO a large extent the flow
err of the German youth has withered."
