A Canmlian Mtuteaiiiun Says It I lie
Kpoinllile fur the Hnril Time.
Montreal, Feb. 15. Hon. C. C. Colby,
ex-Cnniuliuu cabinet minister, who has
returned from an extensive trip through
the United States, suvs that the defec
tiveness of ttie United States national
bank system is responsible for so much
of the depression that has been notice
able of late. The system does not meet
present requirements, the banks being
precluded from giving the necessary ac
commodntions to move crops, etc., hence
the many failures that have been ex
ploited. The silver question was an out
come of the lack of banking facilities
adequate to the needs of the country.
He says he lias information that Prcs
ident-elect Mckinley has given carte
binuelie to a umcago Danker to prepare
a scheme, which, if acceptable, will be
worked out bv the secretav of the treas
ury and submitted to congress. He be
lieves the Canadian system of banks
with large capital and branches in diff
erent centers 01 the country anct power
to issue currency guarnteed by the gov
eminent, will, to a certaiu extent, be
fallowed.

There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en
tirely closed, Deafness is the resnlt, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restoredjjto its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine casos out of ten ure caused
by catarrh, which ia nothing hut an in

faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh

ernor Stephens has decided that lie will
not interfere in the case of Dr. Arthur
Duestrow, the millionaire, of St. Louis,
sentenced to be hanged at Union, Mo.,
tomorrow for the murder of his wife and
child.
The governor had three insanity ex
perts examine Deustrow yesterday.

morning for Union with Duestrow.
Dnestrow's attorneys had intended to
appeal to tiie United States supreme

grant a respite will defeat this move.

-DANGER IN FOOTBALL.
Friends of the Game Stand Up in
Its Dofouso.
Sport Without Danger to Ho round
Only In Such (iimics us Croquet
or Squat Thr Compara
tive Cases.
The annual protest iigaiust the rough
ness and brutality of football us played
in American colleges and schools was so
ig-orotis at the close of this year's
aeiison that the friends of the gunie tire
(.ouiinjr forward with iactstoshowth.it
it is no more dangerous than any other
:jrorous exercise or game, nml they
Cii bicycle accidents, shooting- acoi-
lien Us am! drowning while- sailing- or
sl.nthig to show that the record of foot
bull is not open to serious criticism ;is
an exceptionally rough runic. In a late
issue of Harper's Weekly Caspar Whit
ney mentions his ten years' exclusive
study of amateur sport and its dopelop
ment, and his extensive acquaintance
with football players, adding:
"In all this time I have never had n
friend nor even an acqunintancp who
was killed or permanently injured by
football. On the other hand, 1 have an
acquaintance who lost his eye, and one
damaged for life playing polo; four
friends have been drowned by the up
settingof n sailboat, two drowned by the
overturning of a racing shell, three
drowned while swimming, two while
skating.twokilledinhunting, one by an
an infuriated giizzly bear, the other by
defective rille; one killed by the care
less hundlir." of a. shotgun, and one
killed by one of those didnt-know-it-
was-loadcd fools who wus fingering a
revolver. Several friends and as many
acquaintances have been killed and sev
eral lKiilly crippled while riding or
driving horses."
Mr. Whitney says that in 20 year he
has been able to trace only six deaths di
rectly to foot ball, two of which oc
curred this year. One of these deaths
was that of Itert Serf, of the Doano col
lege football team in Kansas. He died
from injuries received while playiugthe
University of Kansas team at Lawrence. I
in that state, on. November 14 last. A j
Xew York representative of the now
journalism declares that Serf was killed
in a mass play, aud was picked up un
conscious inter a scrimmage, i hun-
eellor Snow, of the University nf Knn-
as, has written n letter giving the facts
about the death of young Serf, who was
only IS years old. Chancellor Snow
savs:
Speak of the Kansas eleven, the
lightest man in the team, weighing
about 150 jiounds, had the ball and was
making an end run for a touch down.
He had a clear field for the goal, when
Serf, who was playing full back, ran to
tackle him, nnd as the result of a too
high tackle was thrown, striking the
ground with his head, just as Speak
carried the ball over the line for a
touoh down. The real cause of Serf's
death was his being out. of condition.
He had been injured in n previous
game, at which time he had been car
riedoll the Held unconscious on account
of an injury to his head. He wus laid
out during the first half of the game
with Kansas, and the referee and others,
members of the Kansas team, protested
against his being allowed to continue
iu the game. He should not have been
allowed to play at all."
Chancellor Snow then makes' an im
portant suggestion. He suggests that
an "additional ollicinl. to rank with the
reieree and umpire, a medical adiiser,
be appointed, with full power to remove
from the game any man of either eleven
who is clearly not in condition to con
tinue the game."
The chancellor also notes that the
three men of the Kansas team who were
reported "dangerously injured" were
not more than slightly injured. He
adds:
"I have no doubt that.nn investigation
of the entire list of those reported dan
gerously and seriously injured v mild
show a general exaggeration of the ac
tual condition of the players merf
lioned."
Mr. Whitney supplements this by the
duelartion that, in all the guinea that
Harvard, Yal, Princeton and Pennsyl
nnia. have played there has never been
ti death. These games have been the
hardest played in the entire country.
He also declares that there is no record
of a permanent injury in any of these
games, and that the most serious acci
dent in any of them was that of a
broken breast bone. The man who met
with the accident is strong and well to
day. Mr. Whitney says that if wo wish
to have sport without danger we must
confine ourselves to croquet or
nr snn-it i

A few vears ago a prediction thnt
coarse kitchen toweling would one day
be a fashionable drew, fabric ouW
have met with scorn, but to-day, nnius-1ns-
and absurd as it sounds, crash is
made up into the neatest little morning
-ostumcs and arc indorsed by the best
tailors. There are various weaves ami
weignts of crash; the coarse weaves are
somewhat shngiry in surface, while the
.-lose mesh is smooth. The color rang- ';
from ecru to brown. Dresses nim.r. c
this material are usually untnmntrti
or firished only with n belt nnd collar
of colored linen or duck. A wide, mil
skirt has stitched, overlapped scums
and an Eton jr-cket, which has flaring
cuffr and re vers of green linen. An
other has a blouse waist with a roiring
colhr and buttons of turquoise blue
Grass linens, which were so popular last
year, are crowded to second place by
canvas cloth in string color, w.ueh
is rather pretty in the thin texture,
but uclv where the weave is coarser.
There "is n camel's-hair canvas also,
which looks soft and pliable, and
pique and duck, for which no substitute
in washable goods has yet been found.
