To understand the marvelous regu larity of the 'world's gold supply you onu&t go to that wonderful mushroom city of the" high African veldtJohan nesburg. It seems to! leap roaring out of the desolate red karoo after the , dreary northward journey.of a thous and miles. 4 : . -,. : In the midst of It loom the palatial . skyscrapers of Eloff street, the prince ' ly office buildings of Market Square, iwith their express ' elevators, 1 tele- . phones, electric lights and all the ! pomp and circumstance of Wall street. Hera is a clubhouse worth half a million. An opera house, too, calling for Melbs, Paderewaki and Kubellk. A Carlton Hotel rivaling New ' York, Paris or London in luxury and cater tag for the princes of gold in a roar ing oasis of Industry, with a ratable value'" of $300,000,000, rising sheer and amazing In an utter' desert. - ' : . In this magic city, of .the .

' . ' r Tod " Vwill- meet 'men i i who 'trampled - heedlessly on the $5,000,000,000 worth .of gold which John Hays H"ammond estimated years "ago lay in that hun dred and thirty mile reef. And yet the ore seemed miserably poor. " i&Y Poor it is, yet so regular and'stable , In quality-that aL one need do is: to put down machinery on a big enough scale and grind the stuff out euro and certain of the profit on every ton. When the secret of the sloping reef ' leaked out there came one of the mpst , sensational gold rushes of modern j times. One man found that part of his came inside an old Dutch church. But that was no reason for reverence; ' he rushed in like a madman and drove '-ill peg under the altar! To-day, besides the surface com panies,: there are 'the rows of .deep ' level mines. . , After these .come thw deep Jeeps; and deeper,deep3 are driv- en beyond these again to spear the , fast sagging reef,i No wonder $5,000,- 000 will sometimes be suns; in shafts, machinery and Oabor and a wait of - ten years patiently endured before the ' .gold can even be touched. ' It' Is tragic fact' that the golden ', city Is also a land of disappointment. The truth is South Africa produces ' srold and dlamondrand nothing else. ' There is not another single . Industry to support the country. After the war there was a great rush to Johannesburg, . Business ' houses trebled In number. Structures " worth $40,000,000 were put up with feverish haste. . Then came the reac itlon, and an amaslng exodus of white men from the city of gold. , " In the last three tears the mines have spent over $1,000,000 recruiting ' laborers In central Africa, .with the : 'poorest results.. . Only 17,000 shivering v- "negroes were secured, ana as these came from "a tropic climate .they could not stand the cold winter, i fU; v . For this reason an army of Chinese, " rtearly fiO.OOO strong, was i Imported, and this raised a grave political ques tion m the British House or commons . Yet notwithstanding all drawbacks it U certain the Rand's output will be maintained and the world's gold sup . ply will surely Increase Instead of fall jng oir,.&tf;;:j rv Every year sees new. fields tapped. .

And there are savage natives to be reckoned with, too , Not a season passes in Australia without some gold mining episode' be ing recorded stranger than any fiction.

The men were almost dying of thirst when Mills ac cidentally broke some chips off the cap or a reef and found it was rainy heid together with virgin gold. , The -Hidden Secret Mine, as it was called, yielded ;$200,000 of gold in a few days, and was then bought by the Earl of Fingall for $2,500,000. The mine's name was now (hanged to that of the Golden .Hole, and lord Flngall at once floated a company in London and paris with a -capital of $3,950,000. The magic hole was solemnly, seal ed, and in due time all. the world's eyes were upop It Men said it would send out gold by the ton. Dramatic indeed was the re-opening not a celof of gold was to be found! There was nothing left but a miser able shell, for" the .famous hole had proved a u mere - pocket marvelously rich, yet coming to an abrupt end. . AGAIXST CENTRAL BANK.

In order to obtain the views of the bankers who do business in Washing ton and the neighboring States, The Post recently put two questions to .heads of banking houses both here and In Virginia, West Virginia, Mary land, and North - Carolina. These questions were: , No. 1 Are you n favor of the es tablishment of a central government bank as a means of preventing strln gentry In currency? . i .; . : -,- t No. 2 Are you In favor of the is sue by the government Of emergency national bank noU with'provislon for their retirement when no longer need ed , in .circulation ? ii i;;: s -'--i ' X4 'Among. Washington, bankers 'there was found great objection to the. es tablishment of a central bank issue In fact, only one man expressed himself in favor of such a plan at present, al though - this plan had been strongly advocated in the annual U report of Comptroller of tnie Currency Rldgely as a preventive, of financial -stringency, The majority of i; the Washington bankers did, .however, approve of the second ; plan for preventing money tightnesssuggested in the questions aked by The Post, . the issue by the government of 'emergency national bank notes, t " , . t .'.- The replies " to these questions .which, have been received from the near-by States show that very much (he same feeling exists In them as that found here. - "Fifty-four answers have been received from leading bank ers o the four States -Virginia, Mary land, West Virginia,-' and North Caro lina.

Christmas Eve was celebrated here with almost as much noise per capita as deafened the ears of the Charlotte public at an earlier hour in the evening, but it was more generally distributed through the night. and seemed In large measure to follow the line of the railroad , In the depot section of town. The young people of the'Merry-go-round" Club celebrated the occasion by an ; enter tainment at the home Of Miss Maude Vinson, where, they were . entertained with all the cordiality and hospitality that is dealt out in liberal and. gener ous measure to all visitors at this pretty home. : ' yf:i v?,y; !

In turn, Mrs. , Pals-ley-yesterday made .' acknowledgment of the gift oy entertaining the mem bers of the session at a 8 o'clock din ner, f Both .the attractive appearance of the table proper, with its ornaments and of the good trniigs that weight ed it down were so fdr out of the or dinary as to win for the hostess some very, enthusiastic praises from a few friends that were called in to see the treat before it was attacked by the In vited "bench of, old men" and equally enthusiastic comment from those who sat down to enjoy it. It was voted that Mrs. Paisley la as fine a house wife as she ia' organist. - About 20 or 25 of the students are remaining on the campus during the holidays. , At no time does one feol the force of the old saying, '"there is no place like home" Just quite so strik ingly as at Christmas . and yet I the bunch of fellows is large enough to keep each other 'company, and those who enjoy such diversions are finding cordial, welcomes in the village homes and the several social entertainments. - It is not likely that reports can be sent out for one or two more days yet as the classes having final examination on the last day or the December term are always large, designedly so In fact so that all may get through as far asl posBioie togetner ana maxe a start ior home 'at the same time.
