TELE OMAILA. DAILY BEE ; SUXDAY , AUGUST 8 , 1807 , 19 ThB attempt of accident Insurance com- fytnlci to cls i bicycle riding so "extra , haz ardous , " and , therefore beyond tha condi tions nominated In the policy , received a set-back In the New York supreme court recently. Israel W. Baldwin of Avoca , Steubcn county , N. Y. , who carried an acci dent policy of the Fraternal Accident As sociation of America , was badly Injured by falling from hU bicycle In 1891 , and a a result wan Incapacitated from pursuing bla ordinary occupation for over a. year. He lied the company to recover $20 per week for the period of ono year. The company contested the clnlm on two grounds. One waa that under the lerma of the policy the plaintiff waa pjedged to iiibmtt the question of damage to arbitration , In the event ot a disagreement with the company ; and this ho did uot c-iiacut to. The other wa-i that the policy piovldcd that If the plaintiff ehould bo injured whllo engaged temporarily or otherwise In any occupation or exposure classified ai more hazardous than that speci fied In the certificate thp Indemnity should bo at the rite only of the more hazardous occupation. If the company's claims on this latter point were conceded the plaintiff's compensation for the period of his disability would bo nt the rate of $10 per week. Justice Davy of thu supreme court , before whom the case waa brought , ruled In favor ot the plaintiff on both points. In the Hist ho held that no prhate agreement looking to arbitration could extinguish the plain- lift's right of appeal to the courts. In the , second , ho dismissed as untenable the theory that bicycling aa practiced by the ordinary citizen la an "extra hazardous" occupation , deciding that the word "occupation" as used In the policy referred to u man's regular business or calling and did not cover a harmless pastime llkn bicycle riding. Before the blcyclo was perfected , says the Chautauciuaii , hnrsebark riding was the only outdoor exercise of the kind suited to femi nine needs , and good , gentle , sound rldliifl horsca were hard to find , expensive ) to buy , nrid still more expensive to take care of , HO that few women kept one. Good blcy- clea , although costly , seem to bo within the means of almost every person : at all events hundreds and thousands of women and glrU who never could have owned a horse go gaily over our streets and roads on bicycles that are quite equal In "price to nny but the finest Kentucky steeds. The good effect of this change from scdantary Indoor life to free and exhilarating exer- olro in the open air la already ( mite notice able even to the casual observer. Prejudice has rapidly given way before the fascinat ing progrecs of what at first seemed but the fad of the hour , and wo havj already become accustomed to seeing sunbrowned faces , once wallow and languid , whisk past us at every turn of the street. The mag- netlam of vivid health has overcome coil- Bcrvntlvo barriers that were Imprcgnablo to every other force. And this Is , let us liopo , but the beginning of a revolution humane and soundly rational , which will bring an era of vigorous phjalcal life to -women. , . From an official report to the League of American Wheelmen It Is shown that New York wheelmen will have completed by 18D8 a continuous cycle path ot 100 miles , extend ing from Albany west , with a branch from Bchenoctady to Saratoga and Lake- George , a largo portion of v.hch ) Is now being built. There were 354 miles of cycle paths under contract to bo ibullt during 1897 , of which 137 miles had been completed , ut a cost of $10,455 , out of a total coat of $10.947. This Is to be distributed aa follows : Chemung county , fifteen miles , cost $1,600 ; Kings county , live and a half miles , cctit $3,500 , al ready built ; Monroe county , 120 mllee , cost $14,000 , already built sixty miles at a cost of J7.000 ; Onelda county , forty-five miles , cost $6,200 , already built fourteen miles at u coat of $2,200 ; Oncldn , seventeen miles , cost $3,000. alieady built six miles at a cast ot $1,200 ; Saratoga , eighteen miles , to cost $2,000 , not yet begun ; Schenectady , twelve miles , to cost $1,422 , already built seven miles at a eesU of $1,120 ; Seneca county , fifteen mllee , to cost $2,250 , already built nine miles at a cost ot $1,400.

" According to the Sporting Life leading pro fessional racing men are enjoying a pros perous season , Competition among the race- jiromotlng clulxs to secure the best riders Is causing big purees to be offered In the all- professional events. The rules on the state and national circuit meetB- demand full value cash purses , nnd are Inciting a keen rivalry among the big rldera to secure the lion's share gf the spoils. Although the racing season has not yet progressed very- far the Income derived by some of the men Is large. Whllo the Mist prizes are the most coveted the place men fare generously. Jay Katon , the profrenlonal , cleared nearly $300 In two days' racing out In New Jersey last week The fact that this turn , was realized In three races Indicates that for fast rldera the bicycle racing game ! a remunerative business. In twelve days of racing on the New York atnte circuit Isat month L. C. Ilald won $725 , Tom Cooper $325 K. A. Me- Varraml $320 and I' . Goodman $ . 0. \ \ Ith a great many riders these suma figure aa clear profit. In five , daja' racing In the ' national circuit Tom Cooper won $ St 0 , which averages over $100 a day. At the recent three-day me t , hold at Haclno , A. O. Mer- tens the St. I'aul mao. cleared $400. Ttnii Cooper won $410at this meet and $250 at the Springfield tournament. Including all Iho big riders throughout the country , the professional riders are earning moro money In purscti this season than In any previous > ear. The bicycle racing season lasta toi clx months , and It Is fair to assume irtal In that period this year ten or twelve rldera will earn from $5,000 to $10,000. Tha rider. , will readily earn classified 'an second-raters from $2,500 to $3,500 111 purses thla year. Harry W , Sllnlng of Chicago la the tlnlMl cyclist In the .world.

Snyder , the calculating barber , was talk ing about cycling , and wai holding fortl upon the energy expended by women li making century runs , cays the Philadelphia Record. "I have done a llttlo figuring 01 tha subject , " he remarked , "and the resul It most surprising. "Tako a woman who weighs 120 pound aud who rldeti a wheel weighing twent pounds. In riding 100 mllm I hare caleu latod that power of more than 3,000,00 pounds of energy , or about lOO-horne power , hag been brought Into play.

"The same nrnount of energy used to pro pel a baby carriage weighing ten pound ? , containing a baby welshing twelve * pounds more , would send the youngster 500 miles. "Tho same amount of energy expended In churning would produce thirty tons ol butter , or would push a carpet sweeper over on area ot 250,000 square feet. "Tho woman could also have Ironed with out any more fatigue a strip of muslin one foot wide and 210 tulles long.

Lively SlruuKlc A'montv ( lie Milker * til I'riixitt'ct. Ilevel gears and the cllckcty-cllck chains will begin a fight to ths finish next jeiir. IllcyclUta will be warned that the chainlet wheel Is the only really swell , up-to-date $100 one In the world. They will also be told by the versatile salesman that the- chain wheel la the real thing , and that the bevel gear Is a mere freak , designed to bolster up a rapacious trust. The bevel gear , or chain- lenj wheel , will be sold for $100 , and the chain wheel will have a mark-down tag ot $75 tied to Its front fork. Tills Is the program laid out by bicycle- makers who have been watching certain con ferences and consultations held In thecasl recently , says the Chicago Hccord. When Colonel 1'ope sent out word that all bicycles made in his shop bearing 1897 date line uhould bo marked down from $100 to $ "r wheelmen all over the country Joyfully ac cepted the tidings as an Indication that the day of cheaper bicycles had dawned. Ilu It < < eems that Colonel Pope had an ulterior motile In taking thli action. It Is uow re ported that there 1 In process ot organiza tion a combination or trust of big bicycle makers who next year will put chaliilezw wheels on the market , and Colonel I'opt wanted to clear his decks for action. Ac cording to this report the bevel gear men will work together , through a selling or ganization to be formed , not only to sel their products , but to make the chain whce such a back number that no self-respectlnf bicyclist will be seen on one. The plans o this chJluless wheel combination contem plates the Issuing of licenses by the Pope Manufacturing company to the several com panics Interested giving them the right to put bevel gears on their wheels. If the combination can prove that the chalnlesa wheel Is a practical success and can start a craze for bevel gears on wheels , It la be Moved the combination will have a practlca monopoly on bicycles bcforo 1900 comes In It Is said thU combination la buying up pat ents for chalnless wheel ? right and left , so that In time It will control every device which can In any way bo regarded as prac tlcal. Hut the chain-wheel men also are organlz Ing on lines Identical with those employed b the chnlnless-wheel men. A , number o chain-wheel makers Mvo been approach with a proposition to enter Into an offeusiv and defensive combination for the purpco of selling and upholding the chain when The chaln-wheol men Eay that the beve gear Is yet an experiment , and while ther Is no doubt that chalnless bicycles will b put on the market next year and cxploltei as the only genuine , simon-pure , very lates machine , the number will be limited. Ar thur .Black , chairman of the cycle board o trade , said that he would believe- reports o a combination of leading blcyclo men fo selling chalnless wheels when ho : aw a bcve gear that Is as good as the ordinary chain Ho Intimated that perhaps chain wheels wll be standard at $75 next year. In the bevel gear a bevel-gear wheel I used Instead of a sprocket. This large whof engages with a smaller bevel gear , whlc In turn rotates u rod that extends back t the bevel gear on the real wheel. The gea wheels can bo Inclosed In a case and con' pletely surrounded by oil , and the casing wi bo dust proof. A claim will be made tha thla form of transmitting motion will b much more costly than the * chain , but sklllei mechanics say the bevel gear should not cos a cent more than a well made chain , an that In the end the chain will bo the victor The champions of the now style of gear Ing argue that the exposure of the chain I' a serious defect In bicycle construction ; thai It adds friction , causes the parts to wcai more rapidly , thereby making the blcycli harder to propel , and Is a source of annoy. ance In the way of accumulating dlit am soiling clothing. The vibratory strain oftcr causes It to spring and throw the sprocket ! out ot alignment. These faults are clalmei to have been entirely overcome In the bevc arenl machine. As In the case ot clnln driven wheels , tin side shaft machine may bo geared to an ; size required. Owing to the ease In pro aulslon the sears ivlll probably be madi slightly higher than the average omvi usc < now. The new machines will bu from 0111 to two pounds heavier than those wltl chains , and their construction will cost tin manufacturer mora than the present style.

"Darling ! " the young man said again , am thcra was a tremulous earnestness In bb voice that could not be misunderstood. Hut Marguerite 1'lllsbury did not reply , She only gripped the handle bars man firmly , and put so much weight upon thi pedalo that the tandem shot forward as 1 some ono had given It a push from behind. A sickening doubt took possession o Horace Mlddleton , and for a moment 1 seemed ua If ho would reel and fall by tin way. Ho would , Indeed , have done so If th beautiful girl In front of him had not kep. a firm tread and steady hand. For a nilnuto or two that seemed an ag to Horace Mlddleton they aped onward , A hundred sickening thoughts flashei through his head.

The further a wheelman or wheclwoman can KO without a drink the better. Cyclists will be surprised to note how easlly.lt Is to rldo without frequently n nuaglngs of thirst once the desire for the first drink Is overcome. When the rider gets to a point where h thinks ho can stand It no longer ho will be surprised to note how easily his thirst may be quenched by pouring cold water over bis wrists and rinsing out hlg mouth and throat without gulping down great swallows of an Icy liquid that In stantly chills his entire system with pos sibly fatal results. Gliders not fitted for long distance trlpi may dlscoier after they have gone a con- Mdcrablo distance , that their breath cornea quickly and with evident effort. The action of the heart U very hurried and there Is something like a feeling of suffocation and oppression In the chest. That ! 3 nature's warning to stop and take a rest. Possibly a weakened stomach may have something to do with It , but a weakened stomach means hard work for the heart as well as the other hard work the heart Is doing to supply blood to the body that Is undergoing such unusual exercise , compared with that to which It has been accustomed. If tin ; rider refuses to note the winning shortly there will bo a collapse and a cyclist prostrate on the road side.

Outside ot Nebraska , Iowa and Missouri state meets , which were held during the flrat week of July , that month has been an un usually dull ono for mid-western racing men. There were fewer meets all over thu country during July thau there has over been hero before since cycle racing took Its place among the leading sports of tha day. This month Is Just the opposite , as here tofore It baa been the dull one. There arc numcious good meets scheduled for August In the weat , and racing men are beginning to reap the harvest that corner to them only during this season of the year. There are In tbo neighborhood of forty profeslona riders following ths Kansas circuit , which gos to ehow that a man to win nowadays must have considerable Apeed as well as c long bead to back It up.

Coin lack to tha original subject , there are plenty of race mee-.es In Jitf west this month. Iowa.

In September the Ne braska circuit opens and" the * gang ot circuit chaser * , now followlngl'th"o ' Kansas circuit , will turn their attention to 'this state. Add to three riders the nulfibeY of Nebraska , Iowa and Colorado ruen1Wtfo will Join them at the first Nebraska clhiiiU meet , and you will have a field ot the fastest nnd most representative professional riders In the west. Tlio writer antlclfja-loj that there will bo at least fifty or sixty 'lo follow Nebraska's circuit , which Is a greaHeY "number than Is now following the national circuit , and the little towns which have scfurcd circuit dates will have a chance to jsed the largest and fastest field of riders tex'cr' ' assembled to gether In the west , The majority ot the local racing men have been doing their training upon the Charles street park track during the past week , pre paring themselves for the coming six-day race and ocrles of match races , which open at the park tomorrow evening. The boys have- been turning some very fast eighths , quarters , halves and miles , which goes to show that the track has been put In good shape again by the thorough overhauling given It this spring. _ Thrtt a good bfglnnlng often makes a bntl endlni ; all must bo aware of , alnce the old aaw has raid so , for goodueis only knows how long. Kven so , a poor start , especially In n short race , Is far from being a winning affair , oxropl where the racer receiving It outclasses his field. In racing thf pit-ilt off Is the very first thing that contributes to success or fallme lu a tiack competition.

Exactly with the ) pistol , losing not a Blnglo Instant , ho given a mighty pull , and before- the momentum' acquired by this movement Ins had time to slacken , follows It up with a generous shove with , his rK'ht against the rear ot his already well started lacer's saddle. A great many trainers dimply shove their men over the tape , but Denman'o la certainly the superior plan ot starting a unit. H gives the rider a eouplo of yards' ad\antage at the start , and affords him a better ch.-.nee In the strug gle for position that Immediately ensues. King's combined "pull and puah" is an un told boon to the rider whom he starts In a race , as he luvarlibly always geU hla man away lu front , and If the race bo paced it seems but llttlo trouble for lilm to push his man to the pace. Ills system Is unlike that of America's greatest starter , ASA Win die. who started Hald lu nil of hla racca during 1S9 : . . Charlie Thomas , also of this city , Is another excellent starter , and alwa > s jjct his man away In the lead , unless Dcnman bo starting against him , when Chaillo never fallvi to put his man away second.

Among numerous other novel features which Hlngllng llros. will present In Omaha , when their big clrciH exhibits here Monday , August 23 , Is a veritable whltt elephant , said by the Scientific American to be the only genuine specimen ever tven In the United States. Contrary to the belief al. most universally held for several centuries , tha white elephant Is not a distinct species and capable of perpetuation. U la an albino an accident of birth and ( specimens arose so rare nnd nn royally prized that nations have rfono to war for their pc es lon , whllo the Independent kln s of farther India have time anJ again h > pothecated the future revenues of their kingdom for a score of jcars to secure the treasure necessary to purchase them from their fortunate pos- Ecwora. Every devout Buddhist believes , with a faith Implanted from childhood , that the body of the white elephant Is the re ceptacle of the soul of a departed priest of Buddha , while the possess ! m of one of thesi pretty , pink-eyed animal albinos Is believed by royalty to In-suro the safety and perpetuity of the feigning djtmsty. It ! > , In fact , the io > al mascot ot the reigning house , and w o to man or woman who trca's It with Indig nity or falls to prootrate the body In Its royal presence. To eccure a genuine white elephant and exhibit It to their American patrons haa long been the ardent desire of the famou.3 Hlnqllng Brrs. Year after > ear they have presented to their patrons some ue\v and surprising evidence of their tlre- lesj search for novelties , but they have felt that not until they had secured a genuine white elephant and actually placed one of these animals upon exhibition could tholr efforts saU'fy even their own far-reaching aspirations. Severil years ago a special agpnt was eent to India. Ills Instructions were : "Ret n white elephant. No matter what It cost = > ; no matte- how long It takes ; no matter how many obstacles have to be surmounted get a white elephant. " Ths beautiful Keddah , said to be the only genu ine white elephant that human eye has over looVe.l upon outride of India Is the result of tl'nt broad commission. The h'story ot the efforts made to secure this rare animal the Intrlmico of the royal ministers to prevent the departure of the semi-sacred beast from the royal palnce at Bangkok , Slam. Its final Illght , under cover of darkness and escorted by the royal guard , and the long , anxious voyage to America , would make a volume of ab-'orblng ' interest. Its arrival In Auier- i lea Is. however , an accomplished fact , and It will bo shown here In conjunction with Kindling Bros. ' fine zooloclcal display.

Curtis In the Chicago Ilecord , and In her amo will take charge ot your Mtcrs and ellver thorn Into the nands of the In- Ivlilual to whom they are addressed , by arrlcr , nnywhcrc In the United Kingdom , or the charge of a penny , or 2 cents In our iionoy. The system of frco delivery. Is inlversat In the country us well as In the owns. Or , by condensing your communlca- Ion Into the limit ot twenty words , Includ- ng the- address or signature , you can have t forwarded by the same rosy checked oung woman to any point In tlu > kingdom or a slv-prnce , which Is 12'4 cents In our urrcnuy. When 1 was hero last the charge ins a shilling , but the government has cccntly reduced telegraph tolls one-half , nd still had a deficit ot only about $150,000 ast year In maintaining a service which "escrvco a special letter. If you want to hear the voices of the ovcd ones at homo the queen will furnish ou a telephone for a three minutes' con- ersatlon for threepence for every twenty- Ivo miles of distance ; that Is. If you want o talk with a person fifty miles away you an have the wire for a sixpence for thrco iilnutco. At 100 miles It will be a shilling 'or three minutes , or two shillings for six ilnutcs , and so on. A NEW IDEA. The telephone pcstal system Is a now Idea. t was Introduced only last year. There has cen much discussion In the newspapers , In 'arllameiit nnd elsewhere about the neccs- Ity of the government taking over the elcphono wires and uniting them with the .elcgraph and postal service , In order to iromoto the public convenience and cauomy , and an amalgamation will come -ooncr or later. It Is In accordance with ho centralization policy of the government , nd also with public opinion , but the tele- 'hono ' companies have fixed charters and road privileges granted them for a term of rears that are very valuable ! and profitable , and cannot bo taken , nor will they bo sur- cndercd voluntarily without compensation hat would seem excessive. The present arrangement Is a concession to public senti ment and a step toward an Irresistible con- olldatlon that will bo arranged before the charters expire. It leaves the local business o the companies nnd places the trunk lines inder the care and In the use of the postal department. The telephone companies sup ply Individual subocrlbers as before , but what wo call public telephones In the United States are controlled and operated by the anie men who manage the government elcgraph system. If you want to send a small package to any purl of the kingdom you go to tbo post- olfico and use the parcel post. If you want lo send a large package you take It to the 'booking office for goods" of the railway company. The pircel pest takes tbo place of our express business , but Is much cheaper. You can tend a package for a slx- ; ienco here that would cost you from 40 to T5 cents In the United States. L ii3t year there were 672,300,000 packages containing books and samples which have a special rate and 00,627 , t2S packages containing other forms of merchandise sent in the par cels pcdt , or 18.63 per capita of the popula tion. The average charge per parcel was 5.14 pence , or 10 cento and S mills In our : noney. POSTAL BANKS. The general banking or exchange business of the government through Its postal service last year amounted to nearly $160,000,000 and represented 10,900,863 transactions in ; noney orders sent by mall or telegraph , which was on Increase In number of 215- 757 over the prevlou.5 year , and nearly ? l- 000,000 In amount. The English use the money order system a great deal more gen erally than we do for the transmission of funds. They do not use BO many bank checks. The banks In the United States keep the accounts and pay the bills of the public without charging fees. A man with an ordinary nalary can deposit his pay In the bank every Monday , or at the end of the month , and go homo and write checks to pay his bills. Thla saves him a great deal of trouble , but compels the banles to em ploy many more clerks. He contributes nothing to their compensation , for the bank does not have the use of his money for more than a few houra or a few days at least. It docs his business for nothing. The Eng lish banks will not permit themselvea to bo used as a private convenience In such a man lier , and therefore the postal order and the postal note are u sd a great deal moro gen erally for the transmlfslon of funds than bank checks. There were twenty-three pos tal orders Issued last year for every person In the kingdom , and the average value was 7 shillings and 6 pence. The postal savings bank business Is In creasing more rapidly than any other branch of the service. Its advantages are so ap parent , the good It has accomplished Is so universally recognUed , It appeals so di rectly ami so clcscly to the people , that 0,453,597 , or about one-fifth of all the men , women and children In Great lirltaln and Ireland , are depositors , and their savings thus Invested and drawing Interest amounted on the last day of last year to 37,868,985 , or nearly $500,000.000. ENOUMOUS TRANSACTIONS. Last year there was deposited in the postal savings banks 32,078,660 , or nearly $100- 000,000 , representing 11,381,977 transactions , mostly by pccplo who do not have accetd to ordinary banks. The sum drawn out during the year was 25,698,296. or about $130,000,000 , In 4,102,059 transactions. The dlffercnco In the number of the deposits and the number of withdrawals explain anil Illustrate the usofuloeEH of the ny tem , II shows that 7,282,918 moro people went to the postal fcavli'Kfl banks to leave money than to take It away , and 2,351,538 of thewo whc enjoy the advantages afforded did not dis turb their deposits. It also shows thai the deposit- " were of small amoiinlo , while the withdrawals were much larger nearlj thrco times as large , This Is explained foj several postirastera In London and In thi country towns that I have visited and bj the olllclals at headquarters by the sami reasons. They say that many of the with drawals were- duo to the fact that the deposits posits had reached the maximum allowei to any ono person , which is 200 , or $1,000 and the depositors transferred the mono : to permanent Investments , either In rea estate or government bonds or shares li corporations , 'Many other withdrawals wen due to the accomplishment of special pur peso.ot the depositors. Some ot them owe < money coming duo upon a certain date- maybe the Interest upon a mortgage , or i note of hand ; others desired to make pur chases ; a boy wanted a gun or a watch , o a girl wanted a pony , and all theoo varlou classes and conditions solicited the assistance anco of the queen's postal agents at th nearest postofilco and deposited their pen nloa and sixpences there from tlmo to time which would otherwise have been equan dered , aud when the amount they requlrei waa reached , perhaps by 100 or 200 de pewlU , they checked It alt out it enc and made the payment for which the IKYUM were Intended , The < iy tom accomplished Itn purpose In both care * . It encouraged economy and afforded convenience A p uny saved wan a penny earned. TKACHINO THE YOUNG TtmUT. The clerks In charge of the postal navlnii offlccs I have \lslted told mo that the Inrgcit number of their depositors are children and > oun people. The next largest number M household servants , One of the clerks at an office In Leamington told me that she knew very few children In th t part of th cltr who did not have * account ? , and every servant of her acquaintance was a regular depositor. Itut I < eamlngton In a society center. Jt Is. the Saratoga ot England , nnd almost entirely without mechanics and factory operatives. In the manufacturing towns the largest depositors ro working- * me-n'a wtvci , and In the po.itolficcs at center * whcro there la a largo population of thl class It Is alwayn customary to Rend addl * tlonat clerks to the postofilce on the evening of pay day. The number of now accounts opened l st year In the postal saving banks of flreat Itrltaln was 1,153,236 , which was an Increai * of 22,000 over the previous year. The num ber of accounts closed and passbook * ) sur rendered was 803,402 , leaving a net Increas * of 341sni In the number ot depositors for the year. Thn dally average number ot depositor * throughout the kingdom was 37,084 , as against 33.SG1 during the previous year , and the average aggregate dally deposit was 104,4DO. ns against 9 ! > ,475 for the previous > car. The' largest inimbiT of deposits mada on a single day was 92,761 on the 30th ot December , and the largest amount deposited on any day during the year was 332,132 , on the 3lst of December , The largest sum ever withdrawn from the postal savings banks on a single" nay was 172,501 , on the 17th ot December last year. It Is supposed that the money was wanted for the purchaiH ! ol Christmas presents. PRIVATE RAVINGS HANKS. The ravings bank system ot England In not confined to the Postolllcc department. There are titivate Institutions and chartered corpora tions In all the larger cities and m.inufactur- Ing centers which pay higher Interest In many eases than the government rale , which Is 214 per cent , and , although I hive not been able to obtain the amount of their Interest-bearing deposits , they are tald to iigsregate nearly an much as Is In the hands ot the government , but they are mostly trust funds nnd the money of men of means \\ho are debarred from the government system becausepoft.tl deposits are limited to $1,000. There are al most every conceivable kind of provident ami mutual assurance societies for the encour agement of economy and raving , and they are under the otrlcte'st seiutluy from the government. Occasionally some shrewd swindler Invents a new scheme to rob con fiding depositors , but there Is no country In the world whi're tlu > financial Interests of the poor are so well protected and encouraged by the government. The smallest amount received at a post- office for deposit Is 1 shilling. The largest amount , as I have' already stated , Is $1,000. To encourage the saving of pennies , particu larly of children , however , the government has adopted a sstcm ot savings bank cards. A person who desire * to nave a penny or any sum under 1 shilling Is permitted to purchase ordinary stamps and stick them upon the blanks that are ruled upon the card. When the card Is full , or contains stamps valued at a bbllllng , It can be pre sented at any postofilce , where the stamps are canceled , and a deposit book Is Issued In exchange- . These cards are furnished by the bureau of education to school teachers throughout the kingdom , who ore Instructed to give their pupils a Icason In practical economy at least once a week , and at all times to encourage them to spend their pennies for stamps Instead of confectionery. PUOMOTINO THIUKT IN SCHOOLS. The movement "for the promotion of thrift In schools" has , however , apparently slack ened , whether from lack of Interest among the teachers or for other reasons , I cannot say , for thu number of school stamp cards presented during the last year was 45,000 lefts than during the previous year. Out of 20,000 elementary schools In England alciio there are 8,668 penny banks kept by the teachers , In addition to the stamp-card sys tem. When tbo deposit of any scholar amounts to more than a shilling It Is trans ferred to the nearest postofilco and a credit book le-sucd. In the technical schools ot London , which are supported by the county councils , there arc 6,998 postal savings bank depositors , and the amount of their deposits last year was $50.148. The rules of tbo army require that 10 per cent of the monthly pay of each soldier shall be withheld until the expiration of his term ot enlistment. There Is a similar regulation In the United States army , to discourage de sertion and furnish discharged soldiers with finds to keep them until they have obtained other employment. During the last year 17,281 discharged soldiers Immediately trans ferred their deferred pay from the paymaster general's ofilcei to the postal savings bank , which amounted to the sum of $1,797,480. H will thus be realized that the postal sav ings system of tbo British government la utilized by many classes of people , and sup plies an absolutely safe as well as convenient form of Investment for small sums that la not enjoyed by the people of our country. At thosamo time , it U a small but Increasing source of revenue to the government. It Is Intended that the system shall bo only self * [ sustaining , but the net profits last year. I which was $81,915 , would have been three I times as much but for large expenditures | that were made in acquiring lands and build ings. The deposits are Invested In 3 per i cent consols of the government , which leaves I a margin of one-half of 1 per cent to pay ! the expense of maintenance , after giving the j deposjtor 2' ' , per cent Interest. The appre- , elation of the prlco ot consols during the last year also diminished the net profits , and If they advance much more 'It Is proposed to ask Parliament to authorize the lesuo ot special bonds at 3 per cent Interest , which shall not bo offered to the public , but held exclusively for the Investment of pavings bank funds. With the proceeds of theaa bonds other outstanding securities may bo redeemed. They are liberally guaranteed. Have large hubs and seam less steel tubing. Second hand wheels from $5 to $15.
