A Favorable Bank statement

The bank statement of the New York
Clearing House disclosed surplus OF
SG7.341.950, an Increase OF $13.160.S20
Notwithstanding an increase of about
S75,000.000 in deposits, against which
reserve is required and n decrease of
s33.500.000 in United States deposits
against which no reserve Is required.
The increase in cash reserve of nearly
100000, 900 superficially looked favorable.
but the Federal Reserve Bank statement
showed that it was obtained by redis-
counts and borrowings on United States
obligations from the reserve bank. In
view OF the 100000 share trading on
Thursday a large expansion In loans was
looked sor in certain quarters. but the
actual statement at the beginning of
business yesterday showed loan ex-
pansion Of nearly s21,S7S,000.

COLD IN NORTHERN SIBERIA
Ninety Degrees Below Zero lie Record
for the Whole WorId-Eluhty
Above In Summer Time.

Turn up your collar, thrust your
hands to the bottom of your pockets,
and read about the "cold pole" of
northern Siberia, where the natives
speak patronlzlngly about Greenland's
Icy mountains and other such relative
ly balmy resorts. At the town of Verk-
oyansk, which would probably never
have had any inhabitants IL the late
cars government had not sent oc-
casional patches Of exiles thlther, says
Popular Science Monthly, the temper
ature has been known to drop to 90
degrees below zero, which Is n rec
ord" for the whole world.
While the regions about the north
and south poles Of the earth are cold
all the time, the Siberian cold pole
gives It's inhabitants n comfortable let
up In summer when the thermometer
frequently climbs up into the sos
above zero. During the brief summer
season the llfe-glvlng rays Of the sun,
which remains about the horizon day
and night for some time during the
height Of the season, exert an Intense
ly stimulating influence upon the veg
citation, and the ground Is covered
with flowers.

YOUTH AT A DISADVANTAGE
Younger Men Are Ineffective In OBJ.
tanning Credit as Well az In the
Control Of Workmen.

Christian Girl, president OF the
Standard Parts company of Cleveland,
o., says in the American Magazine:
"When man Of noticeably youthful
appearance goes to cautious banker
seeking to finance even the soundest
kind Of proposition, his line Of argu-
ment is discounted before he says n
word, by his youthful looks. The
banker is afraid Of being carried away
by mere boyish enthusiasm and Is on
his guard. II were much under thIr-
ty-flve and had tiptop business
scheme to finance, would get an old
er man Of established reliability and
conservatism to present It for me to
the bankers.
"Youth'is not always so good, either,
In the production end Of big bust
ness-handling a force of men and
getting the work out Of them. In the
FIRST place, the man who is bossing the
Job should have occupied all the lesser
Jobs between him and the bottom rung
Of the ladder. This requires time.
And, furthermore, men do not like to
work under boss who looks too much
like a mere boy, no matter how smart
or capable or experienced he may be.
It isn't necessary that he be as old as
most of them, but he should be old
enough to give an impression of ma
turity. The average workman doesn't
care much whether the boss Is thirty
or forty, but 1t might make n differ
ence whether he is thirty or only
twenty"

ROCKVILLE. MARYLAND. FRIDAY MORNING. JUNE
YIELDS APPLE OF S0D0M"
Curious Plant Which Grows on the
Borders Of the Dead Sea Pro-
duces This Fruit.

The Dead sea is situated In the
southeast part of Palestine, and is
called by the Arabs Bahr Loot, or Sea
of Lot. 1t is about AZ miles long, with
an average breadth Of nine miles. Its
depth varies considerably. 1t Is fed
by the Jordan from the north, and by
many other streams, but has no ap-
parent outlet, its superAuous water be-
ing supposed to be entirely carried off
by the evaporation. The north
shores of the sea are marked by the
blackened trunks and branches Of
trees which are incrusted with salt, as
is everything that is exposed to the
spray Of this sea.
On the southern shore Is the remark
able mass of rock called Udsum (Sod-
om). 1t is narrow. rugged ridge Of
hill extending five miles northwest,
and consisting of rock salt. To the
north Of Udsum, and at no great dis
lance, is the supposed site Of the an
Client Sodom.
On the borders Of the Dead sea q
curious plant grows which yields fruit
called the apple Of Sodom." beautiful
on the outside but bitter to the taste.
and. when mature, filled with fiber and
dust
The mean level Of the Dead sea Is
1902 feet below the level Of the Medi-
terranean. The water contains from
"a to 20 per cent Of salts, OF which 7
per cent Is common salt. A saltwater
fish put into the Dead sea perlshes at
once. Owing to Its density due to
salt the water of the sen is very buoy.

Painters Frenzy,

The palnter-engraver, Alexander Lu-
nois, excelled In Oriental scenes. He
had passed half his life in the hands
Of the Musselman. His works were
full Of light, full Of color, full OF move
ment. During his last Illness, at Par
is, where his elegant apartments
looked out upon the quay. he was on
his couch, burning up with fever
From time to time he threw q glance
upon beautiful Van Dyck. The pic
ture was covered by glass. Sudden
ly In the reflections Of n glass OF water
he imagined that he saw In the spark
ling light dance Of odallsques, such
as In former days he had seen In Con
stantinople. He could not restrain
himself. He leaped from his bed and.
all trembling, he seized his palette,
his brushes, and frnntlcnlly set nj
work upon marvellous sketch. His
wife found him, nude save for slight
covering over his shoulders, his eyes
sunken, his teeth chattering, painting
with the fury Of mailman. She led
him back to his couch. He died few
days later, and the last picture Of the
great artist remained unfinished.
