Today, with the lover’s zeal, I grasp my pen; But ’tis to sign one more of those large cheques Which Nancy’s violets weekly turn to wrecks. The cheque pad thins; I sigh with lingring look. "Go, little book.” — . Albert, in January Smart Set- The w'ork of the designers of the coronation robeS of the king and queen is confined to a comparatively narrow' field, for the length and shape of the coronation robes are alw’ays the same, as well as the chief color scheme, says an "exchange. A design er, however, can suggest a minor col or scheme for different parts of the robes, such as the arms and collars, which, how’ever, must harmonize with the chief color scheme. The real work of the designers will be to sug gest a decoration and suitable scheme for the embroideries of the robes. The designs that will be submitted to their majesties will be painted on vellum, showing robes on full-length figures. Each design w'ill be paid for, whether adopted or not, but the firm whose designs are adopted w^ill not necessarily be given the order for the robes. Samples for the materials for the robes from the best manufactur ers in different parts of the world will be submitted to their majesties; for, though both King George and Queen Mary desire to place the orders for re quired materials with home firms as far as possible, some of the materials are not possible, some of the are not obtainable in England. The materials supplied must be absolutely “exclusive,” and not an inch of them eold for any other purpose but for the coronation robes. Co-Eds Bar a Goat Club. Pittsburg, ajn. 21.—There is trou ble at the Carnegie Tech School, w^here an organization known as the “William Goat Club” has been recently formed by 45 students in the architec tural department, who have sworn not to shave until January 26. Co-eds have refused to have anything to do with them, and members of the facul ty appealed to sent requests to the young women for an explanation. The follow’ing communication was return ed: “Whiskers—a bunch of alfalfa grown under the proboscis, great for tick ling the feminine sex; also used as a weat'ier vane; sometimes called spin ach, slu^ers, fuzz, brush, etc.; much prized by half-grown males but obso lete with adults; hardy, if cultivated.” l^ake Forest Wins Basket Ball Game Special to The Sunday News.

No. 32 Howell Arcade. Col Bob M^allace’s Hospitable Home One of the most enjoyable dances given during the holiday season was the one last Friday evening, January 13th, at Eastfield Heights by Col. Bob Wallace. Once a year and some times oftner the genial colonel has his young friends “Come over to a dance.” And indeed the ones w'ho are invited are fortunate. The dancing alw'ays be gins just after dark and the first in termission is w'hen the old hall clock peals out the mid-night hour. The doors of the dining room are throw^n open and a genuine old time supper is served. This being over the young people continue to dance until breakfast time. It was indeed a merry crowd that gathered this year to help Col. Wal lace celebrate the yule-tide and all say it W'as the most enjoyable affair of the Xmas season in Eastfield. The following named were present: Miss Willie Oghler with Mr. Cell Garrison, Miss Willie Smith with Mr. Denight Beatty, Miss Jessie Quinn w’ith Mr. Carol Carpenter, Miss Mattie Smith with Mr. Geo.

Whatever cheerfulness has seemed to prevail in general business in the last week or tw'o is due almost wholly to the influence of activity in the in- ^ estment market; most pronounced in bonds, with stocks following along pleasantly; because business itself has shown little, if anything, in the w'ay of actual improvement, which could be called encouraging. The decision of the New' England spinners to stop 2,- 500,000 spindles show’s perhaps the trend. The whole cheerful condition, then, thus far, has been largely produced by the comparative etse in money and in the prospects for money. This is a circumstance which did not pertain to the attempt in October to push up prices, and as far as it goes, is of much assistance in the present move ment. There had been some expec tation that the Bank of England would reduce its rate this week from 4 1-2 per cent. This expectation w^as fram ed on the easier situation in the Lon don discount market, w'here a 3 per cent to 3 1-2 per cent rate prevailed. The bank, how'ever, maintained the 4 1-2 per cent rate, but its w'^eekly re turn W'as an especially strong showing, recording a reduction in loans of $3,- 300,000. an increase in gold of nearly $9,000,000. and a proportion of reserves to liability of 51.23 per cent, which figures are higher for this period than at any time for eleven years. The French bank, also, showed improve ment, as did the Bank of Germany. The currency tide from the west has turned in favor of the money centers and agricultural liquidation in the southwest has added its part. Sucli output of new securities as has been made has been readily absorbed almost greedily. The evidence is for a very large amount of issues of all kinds, eager to take advantage of the tendency tow’ards much easy money. While this lasts the activity engender ed, will reflect itself in the security markets, with indications that the ad vance may continue for a time, at least. Blown Through Garage Roof. Beverly, N. J., Jan. 21.—Careless ness on the part of a chauffeaur who emptied gasoline from the tank of an automobile into a pit under the floor of Dolier’s garage, near River ton, nearly cost the life of Harry Van Kirk, a plumber of this city. Van Kirk, not knowing the pit was filled with gasoline, descended with a lighted candle to make repairs. Instantally there was a terifilc ex plosion, and Van Kirk, clothes and liair afire, w'as shot upward througgh the floor. Workmen smothered the flames. With his face, arms and ecalp frightfully burned. Van Kirk is in a serious condition, but will recover. Presence of mind in sheltering his eyes with his arms probably saved Lis sight. , Boy’s Rare Nereve.

New York, Jan. 21.—Stocks w'ere ir regular throughout the session today, but the close w^as without pronounced w^eakness. Some of the traders took profits, but the volume of business was such as to make it evident that no great liquidation w'as in progress. In fact, some specialties advanced. The close was at about the low prices of the session. The bank statement showed an im portant gain in surplus, while deposits increased more than $30,000,000 in the annual statement. Public realization of the w’^orld-wido ease in money was perhaps the most important feature of last w'eek in fi nancial circles. With this came an- notmcement of the details of Senator Aldrich’s plan for reforming the cur rency, which follows so closely the projjer lines, as worked out by tue ex perience of several nations, that it met with almost universal approval. Expectation is that with some minor changes in detail the plan will be ac cepted. It will take care of the pres ent currency and bond issues and will provide a scientific system which is flexible, although it ignores an im portant matter in that it does not pro vide for the retirement of the fiat money outstanding for the account of the government in the shape of treasury notes. Further ofiicial announcements wpre made regarding restriction of produc tion by the leather, trust, the steel trust, the copper trust and the spin ning trust. The announcement by the last named, through the medium of the Arkwright Club, of Boston, was a most astonishing defiance of the Sherman anti-trust la^». The Arkwright Club states that its members have conspired to reduce their output 25 per cent, thus stop ping 2.500,000 spindles. There had been no indictments on account of any of these conspiracies up to the close of business for the week. Official an nouncement was made that steel wages will stand so long as steel prices remain what they are. Reargument of the cases of the Standard Oil and American Tobacco was finished before the supreme court, and decisions are expected not later than April. These decisions are be lieved in Wall Street to have been dis counted in the stock market, but it is known that Standard Oil bankers are fearful that any break in the mar ket accompanying them might be at tributed to the trust. It is believed, therefore, that If Standard Oil does anything at all on that occasion in the stock market it will be in the way of preventing a break. Reading stock was a pillar of strength throughout the week. Ru mors that Canadian Pacific might in crease its capital $20,000,000 caused a sharp advance in the price of that stock, a new high record being made. Norfolk & Western w^as another strong stock. It rose on rumors that a dividend would be guaranteed by the Pennsylvania, the latter taking a lease of the company. This is denied by interests identified with the Penn sylvania, who say Norfolk & Western is rising because of its intrinsic merit and not because anything would be done in the future to bring about a closer alliance with the Pennsylvania. Central Leather stockholders and those of the American Beet Sugar Co. have become impatient at the rich profits made by directors and ofllcers of their companies in the stock mar ket and are demanding that the ru mors of dividends be stopped and that actual dividends take their place. Both companies are earning enough to pay dividends, the net profits of the sugar company being not less than 12 per cent on the common stock. Com mittees of stockholders in both these concerns will make formal demands in the near future for action on divi dends. Directors of corporations are learning that it is no longer advisable to deprive the stockholder of a fair share of profits, whether these profits be derived from transactions in the business for which the corporation is organized or are made on the floor of the stock exchange. Accumulation of North American stock has been going on for several months, and the latest report is that the company will figure largely in the great copper merger, w^hich is being held in abeyance until the supreme court renders decisions In the tobacco and oil cases. CLEARING HOUSE STATEMENT. New York, Jan. 21.—The statement of clearing house banks for the week shows that the banks held $36,098,675 more than the requirements of the 25 per cent reserve rule. This is an in crease of $8,700,425 in the proportion ate cash reserve, as compared with last w'eek. The statement follows: Daily averages; Loans $1,245,811,000, increase $25,- 866,300.
