OPINIONS OF BANKER.
All Atr TTn KfU f i'mm tawa
Ml Law Will Itlora Coafidaora.
New Yohk, Aug. 30. The following
interviews with bankers of this city
were had regarding the repeal of the
silver purchasing act:
Henry V. Cannon, president of the
Chase National bank: 'The aab
stantial majorities which have been
reported in the house against a de
preciated currency and in favor
of sound money are especially
gratifying because they . show
that the good sense of the
American people is asserting itself
through their representatives. The
people of all sections now realize that
the silver law has imperiled the indus
tries of this country; they have im
pressed members of congress with this
belief, and congressmen have voted
accordingly. There is no doubt the
country may take fresh hope from the
action of the honse yesterday. It
means that we will adopt as a nation
the money of the world, and that all de
pressing conditions and influences will
speedily be removed. Not less im
portant than the effect noon business
at home will be the effect abroad.
'I'M action insures a renewal of con
fiittwe in American securities."
Frederick V. Tappan, president of
the Gallatin National bank, aaid:
"Congress has expressed itself with
sufficient emphasis to let the
world understand that this coun
try is to be managed financially
upon a sound basis. It is certainly
very encouraging to note that every
part of tho country la alive to the sit
uation and that nothing short of ab
solute and unconditional repeal of the
(Sherman law will be satisfactory.
We may look for such action speedily,
I think, as a resulfof what the house
has already done."
Bray toll Ives, president of the West
era .National bank said: "It looks now
as if good news would accumulate
rapidly. We are getting from the
house better results than bad been
anticipated from the senate. Wise
legislation will restore confidence to
our industries."
REQUESTS FOR SEED WHEAT.
Bis Counties Have Hade Application to
the Itallroad Commissioners.
Tope k a, Kan., Aug. 30. The state
board of railroad commissioners have
had requests from six Western coun
ties for seed wheat. The six counties
ask for over 87,000 bushels, the high
est demand, 83,651 bushels, coming
from Thomas county, and the lowest,
8,349 bushels, from Btanton county.
These figures show that it will take
an enormous quantity of wheat to
seed the arid district, a great deal
more than will probably be donated,
ho fur the commissioners have prac
tically no seed in sight, and the coun
ties which are able to render aid
maintain a very deep silence.
The circular letter of Secretary
Mohler of the state board of agricul
ture, which says the people who have
aided so often sufferers by flood and
cyclono ought not to be hardhanded
in this time of greater distress, may
stir the farmers to action; but at
present the prospect of western
counties is very gloomy.

SHE WAS HONEST.
Kmt Kit That Ktsrybod tfss
Looking at Her.
A motherly-looking old lady got oa
Buffalo street car one afternoon.
She was plainly dressed in black,
her hair was as trhite as snow and
her face was -sweet and pbasant
he walked half way up the car and
found a seat ,
As soon as she was seated she
f umbled in a black silk bag that she
carried on her arm and produced a
nickel This she held In her hand
waiting for the conductor to come
along.
The car was well filled and thecon
ductor had plenty to da He came
through the car at Jersey street and
hurriediy collected the fares. He
skipped the old lady. She was ready
to pay him the nickel, but she did
not offer it to him when he passed.
After ho had gone by her, her con
science reproached her, evidently,
for she half bell out her hand as if
to urge tho fare on tho conductor.
The conductor didn't notice the half
proffered fare. Then began a mighty
struggle between the sordid and the
Christian sides of the woman's char
acter. She knew that she ought to
give the money to the conductor, but
she doubtless argued to herself that
it was hi business to ask for It
She felt that every person in that
car knew that she had held out her
fare and she looked around with a
defiant air as much as if to say:
"Well, what if I did?"
Her look of defiance didn't last
long, however. She smiled weakly
and dropped her eyes to the floor.
She started to hold out ber hand and
then pulled her arm bacK. She
looked around the car again and this
time she blushed. Then she sat bolt
upright, evidently having come to un
understanding with herself and drop
ped the nickel into the black silk
bag. It looked very much as if the
sordid sido had won.
The conductor came through again.
The old lady looked straight ahead.
Her lips were closely compressed.
Her fiDgers twitched a bit when the
conductor said, "fare, please," but
she did not fish up the nickel. She
glanced at her neighbors out of the
corners of her eyes after the conduc
tor had passed. She was extremely
self-conscious. It was evident that
she was not yet fully decided that
she had dono right
As the car left Niagara square she
looked around again. She probably
caught someone's eye, for she blushed
scarlet Her defiant look was gone.
She was embarrassed. She felt that
everybody in the car was watching
her. She reached down into the
black bag and found the nickel. Then
she beckoned to the conductor and
handed it to him. 'You skipped me,
I guess," she said simply. The con
ductor 'was astonished, but he took
the money and thanked her. And
the old lady settled back in her Beat,
her face radiant with a look that
plainly showed she was at peace with
conscience after a very trying quar
ter of an hour.
THAT MISCHIEVOUS CROW.
Its Tricks Got an Office Boy Into a Peck
of Trouble.
'Dolphus is not married; he says
?0 thinks the "mahwid state is ohock
ull of trepidations." His chosen
companion in life is a tame crow
named Lucy. This gentle name
seems singularly inappropriate, as
Lucy is the blackest and moat ill
tempered crow that ever cawed.
Her one accomplishment is that
she knows how to mail letters. 'Dol
phus taught her to drop letters down
the mail chute in the office, and he
and Lucy are very proud of the
achievement It nearly brought
them to grief one day. The office
boy in one of the upper oflices is
deeply enamored of a pretty type
writer on tho floor beneath, and oc
casionally, so rumor says, indites
tender missives to her.
The other day, when he was writ
ing, he called Lucy to him before the
letter was ready to mail. Lucy sat
there on his writing table for some
time and the boy seemed in no haste
to finish his epistle.
Finally Lucy could stand it no
longor and snatched the open page
in hor beak aud flew through the
transom to the mail chute in the
hall. The open letter was too big to
go in. Lucy knew her duty; that
lettor must go down, so she flew to
the elevator shaft and dropped it
gently down, then flew away with a
triumphant "caw."
The ofllce boy was in despair. He
toro madly dowu stairs only to find
that the engineer, who had been oil
ing tho top machinery of the eleva
tor, had caught the letter and was
reading it aloud to an interested
audlenco. among which was the oftlca
boy's hated rival, tho elevator boy.
l.ut'y ft jhts very shy of the ofllco
bay now. 'Dolplius says Lucy can
understand every word he say, so it
may be that she understood when the
oftloe boy announced that if Le caught
her he'd wrlug her neek.

WHAT EVERY MAN IS WORTH.
Chemical Compounds of an Average
Voter Are Valued at 018,300.
An Interesting exhibit at the
national museum shows the physical
Ingredients which go to make up the
average man, weighing 154 pounds,
says the American Analyisb A
large glass jar . holds tho ninety-six
pounds of water which his body con
tains. In other receptacles are three
pounds of white of egg, a little less
than ten pounds of pure glue with
out which it would be impossible to
keep body and soul together-srfour
and one-half pounds of fat, eight
and one-fourth pounds of phosphate
of lime, one pound ot carbonate of
lime, three ounces of sugar and
starch, seven ounces of fluoride of
calcum, six ounces of phosphate of
magnesia and a little ordinary tabla
salt Divided up Into his primary
chemical elements the same man it
found to contain ninety-seven pounds
of oxygen enough to take up, under
ordinary atmospheric pressure, the
space of a room ten feet
long, ten feet . wide and ten feet
high. His body also holds fifteen
pounds of hydrogen, which, under
the same conditions, would occupy
somewhat more than two such rooms
as that described. To these must be
added three pounds and thirteen
ounces of nitrogen. The carbon in
the corpus of the individual referred
to is represented by a foot cube of
coal. It ought to be a diamond of
the same size, because the stone is
pure carbon, but the National mu
seum has not such a one in its pos
session. A row of bottles contain
the other elements going to make up
the man. These are four ounces of
chlorine, three and one-half ounces
of fluorine, eight ounces of phos
phorous, three and one-half ounces
of brimstone, two and one-half ounces
of sodium, two and one-half ounces
of potassium, one-tenth ot an ounce
of iron, two ounoes of magnesium,
and three pounds and thirteen ounces
of calcium. Calcium, at present

The World's Fair.
The seven Wonders of the world
were playthings and dull ones at that
when compared with the Columbia
Exposition of 1893.
All the leaning towers and rained
pyramids and gigantic bridges and
other so-called marvels of the old world,
together wouldn't form such a specta
cle as there is now to be seen, not a
thousand miles away. .
Words cannot describe it. But if
you take the Burlington route to Chi

dolph St., Chicago:
Gentlemen: I used three boxes of

had very poor health heart trouble,'
and my nerves were all gone; in fact,
my health was so bad that I sold my
store and spent a year out of doors to ,
improve my health; I was too nervous
to work. NO-TO BAC cured me, and
my health is better than it has been for
many and many a day, and I am only
too glad to give you the liberty to use
this statement, in order that many
others, who are being destroyed by the
use of tobacco, may see it and be saved.
(Signed.) T. B. Hart.
NO-TO BAC is absolutely guaranteed
to cure any form of the tobacco habit;
