- Dewey end His Yellow Shoes
When russet shoes - of a bright
yellow hue were introduced,"
Dewey wore the first pair that
was seen in Washington. They
at once became the subject of
jest of all the officers of the Navy
Department.
Early in the afternoon one of
Dewey's, feet began to swell, ahd
his suffering from his new' ? shoes
was acute. In an interval be
tween the call of friends who
were still "running" him on his
shoes the Commodore sought his
chief clerk's room:- He walked
with a limp, and finally loosened
the strings, to relieve his feet.
"I suppose I; can't 'take these
thiDgs off now,1' he remarked with
a bitter smile," for those fellows'll
think they have driven me to it."
And for hours the Commodore
sat at his desk in perfect torture.

."A Strange Currency Situation."
.-" That is the heading of an edi
torial in Vxsterdaj's New York
World. It urges Congress to take
action "to relieve the obvious
inadequacy of the r- currency and
its adamantine inflexibility,'! and
says: . , . : ; .
""The inadequacy pf our cur
rency system is very remarkably
and rather humiliatingly illus
trated by the fact that New York
bankers and business men are con-
gratulating themselves upon' the
'financial relief that Dewey ,week
will afford. x ' ; i
"Not only .will the exchanges
ose for two days this week, thus
suspending the demand for loans,
utit is estimated that the expendi
ures of Dewey week visitors will
amount to $30,000,000 or- more,
most of. which will flow into - the
banks, thus relieving the strain
upon the reserves. '
"Months ago the World pointed
out the fact that this autumn's de
mand for currency .would be great
er than the bankaQf .New -Xork
could meet. The fulfilment comes
now in so complete an exhaustion
of the, surplus reserve that a two
days' suspension of the exchanges
and the anticipated expenditures
of Dewey week visitors are hailed
as a relief by the bankers and busi
ness men of the second, and per
haps the first, financial capital of
the, world. And this after some
years of unparalleled gold imports
and unprecedented trade balances
in our favor."'
The big war expenditures, the
discovery of gold in Klondyke,
and the big: foreign,trade are the
hree causes that have temporarly
elieved the financial stress which
prevailed up to the declaration of
war. Much of the prosperity of
he past year has been due to Avar
expenditures. And yet with these
three factors, all unprecedented,
the New York papers camplain of
he ''obvious inadequacy of - cur
rency arid, its adamantine inflexi
bility!" The money question will
not lie settled unless there is more
money and what we do have is not
tied up by "adamantine inflexi
bility." Raleigh News-Observer.

The Big CornXrop. ;
. The corn carnival is the feature
of the great valleys of the Central
West "when the frost is on the
pumpkin and the corn is -in the
shock," but with a crop of some
300,000,000 bushels to harvest
there are tired souls and
wearied bodies in the corn, belt
these fine antumn . days. The
promise'of wealth and abundance
of this world's goods brings con
solation and joy; it is the prolong
ed labor without the monetary
compensation that disheartens and
dispirits. Never was there a more
propitious corn carnival season
than the present, and Kansas and
the corn belt are jubilant. Oops
are good, and prices are good.
Corn is everywhere and every
thing. One cannotwalk the streets
of a Kansas town to-day' without
encountering witnesses of the
State's wealth. There .are'eorn
neckties in the show-windows,
corn-husk parasols and hats in the
possession of fair women pedes
trians, cornstalk canes jauntily
swung by prosperous swains, and
corn shoes and dolls for children
every where. The Manifold value
of corn for household and person
al adornment has been the feature
of each . succeeding carnival, and
this year's creations have totally
eclipsed anything heretofore wit
nessed." Clothes and Shoes.
We must pay more for our

We must pay more for our shoes

We must pay- more for our

North Carolina Indians. -Four
Indian boys, ranging in
ages from 16 to 11) years, who es
caped from the Carlisle . (Pa.) In-!
dian School, were captured Wed -
nesday in the vicinity of Monk-
ton, on the Northern Central Rail-'
way. They were taken before
Justice Heisse, where they gave
heir names as Adam Twetle3r,
David Crew, Abram George and
Thomas Wolfe. The magistrate
committed them to the county jail
to await some disposition by the
authorities at Carlisle, who were
notified of their capture. ,
Sheriff Whittle received a dis
patch later from Carlisle signed
"Pratt Major," asking the sheriff
to send the boys back to the .insti
tution in charge of an officer and
saying that he would pay the ex-
enses. AH the boys arerstal wart
lads, and all agreed with Deputy
Sheriff John F. Anderson to go
back to Carlisle without a requisi
tion. One of the boys, who could
speak good English, said that the3-
were from North Carolina, where
their parents lived, and. that they
wanted to go home, although they
had been treated well at the school.
They left Carlisle last Sunday
night and followed the railroad
tracks, as they thought that was
the best way to find their homes.
They were returned to Carlisle.
