BAS t - - t - 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. Ladies' Home Journal.

' CD ."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. Is the Millenium Near.

James Plummer. 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 clothing and our shoes this year than we have paid for' several years past. We must pay more for our shoes because the Dingley tariff placed a duty on hides in order to enrich the great, grabbing Cattle Trust. We must pay- more for our clothing because of the heavy du ties placed by the same law on wool and woolen goods for the And the increased cost will not be trifling in amount. Every overcoat and every suit, the tai lors say, will be advanced $5. Every pair of shoes that a year ago cost $3 will cost $4.50 or $5. Multipl3r those advances by the 70,000,000 people who must have several suits and several pairs of shoes apiece this year and the to tal will represent a very heavy sum of money which the law takes out of the earnings of all the pro- pie and gives to a favored and rotected few. The ' jhing is worth thinking about. New York World. 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. Free Pills. Send your address to H.
