Foley's Kidney Cure makes kidneys and bladder i-,gbt fear for their treasure Sow the Millions . in Gold Stored In English Banks Are Guarded. r Officials of the Bank of England are said to be worried for the safety of the hoards of wealth stored in their strong boxes. The bank station of the new under- ground railway in London is close to teh vaults of the world's great- ui,oa 8 political entity ot any conse est institution of finance. At a 1"ce whatever, while others are wont recent meeting of the bank rec-. refa;dthina e light of a force that , i- a v4. w not Tet spent, the predictions of his tors it was suggested that some enemies and the indictments of the Fed brave but, wicked person. ?ght eral Grand Jury to the contrary notwith- sex on a "quantity oi eajjiussive m the bank station, wrecking the foundations of the stately build ings above and sending 'the bars of bullion and streams of gold leaking out to the station plat form. The feasibility of this scheme has been conceded by the bank governor. It is figured, however, that the "tube," as the underground railway is calledj is a little too deep at this point. To reach the bullion vaults of the bank the conspirators would have to drive a shaft nearly 100 feet, and then they would face a mass of concrete, thick masonry and steel. At one time the Bank oi England was the object of con spiracy. From a church tower close by the bank was bombarded. Afterward the authorities had the church and its threatening tower destroyed. Officials of the bank do not like the tunneling go ing on in the clay berieath their f oundations. The constant pump ing of water has affected even the solidity of the clay, and from this cause one of the wells which is within the three acres comprised within the bank's precincts has dried up. . Those three acres are valued at about $5,000,000 each, and the treasures within them are guard ed in fitting fashion. On either side of the main entrance to the bank are two small jjlass houses In the one reposes a statelj beadle. In the other are two wide awake detectives. Other detec tives are in and out of the rooms but always unobtrusively. At night the police force is a heavy one. Every evening a compact body of men, commanded by a lieu tenant, and including two- ser geants, two drummers, a buglei and 30 privates, marches from Wellington barrack to the bank. They are in full marching order, and before they" enter the tech nical limits of "the city" exercise that privilege of the guards of fix ing bayonets. They are on duty for 12 hours, and but for the recur ring spells of sentry-go have an easy time. ' Officials of the bank provide moderate refreshments for these guards. In the guard room, which is of regulation pattern, are the usual shelf and blanket, suf . ficient accommodation for a sol dier's intermittent dozing when on duty of this kind. The officer has a suite of rooms at his service the dining-room of paneled oak, a neat bedroom and a bathroom. There is hidden away in the center of the bankrone of the most pleas ant gardens in London, where an after-dinner cigar may be enjoyed on a summer evening to the full, while the roar of the great metrop olis around has died away to in articulate murmurs. A King's New Palace. King Leopold of Belgium has taken possession of the new Jap anese palace in the Royal park at Laeken. It is divided into several wings. Each of them contains half a dozen of finely decorated drawing-rooms. The furniture, the ornaments, the sculptures, the paintings, the screens and the roof were executed at Tokio by the best Japanese artists. "More than 2,000 electric lights illumin ate the palace, where the king in tends giving some gorgeous recep tions in honor of the shah of Per sia next summer. Blessings of Speech. x The victim of the automobile accident was plainly dying. Ho was just delivering a touching speech about the "wife and chil dren" when he caught sight of the man who had run him down. A volley of choice expressions arose from the dying man's lips. This apparently relieved him greatly. for he got tip and walked home. Judge. A Mistake. It is not good for man to live alone unless he "wants to save monej;. Chicago Daily New?. J.Will he Figure? A writer who signs himself "J. H. S.," tiad the following interesting communi cation in a Toetropolitan exchange a few iaysauo: - JuBt what part the wilev Binger Her mann will play in the forthcoming Con Kressio al propaganda is a subj.-ct of wide speculation among the wiseacres of politics these days. By manv. the man '"n the felicitous digits is not looked standing, One thing is thought to be reasonably sure, however, and that, is, that unless the tides of lortune set in for the troubled Congressman, as farasbis complications with the United States re concerned, he will not figure f much .importance as a candidate propria persona. Otherwise should the edifice of accusation erected by Francis J. Heney et al., be found to be built upon the sand, or collapse in failure of its purpose, the sociable states man might pull out from under the elouds and become a factor in the race for his succession. In other words, Binger might make a try to succeed himself. ' But should the indictments against him pan out as Francis Joseph Heney would have them, or his trial be deferred until after ine primary period, it is reasonably cer tain that the political Napoleon oi Roae burg will have to stay behind the scenes in the coming drama of political warfare. As it is, however, B. Hermann has not bien shaking hands and inquiring into the status of domesticity all these years for nothing, and whatever the outcome as far as he impersonally concerned, his influence will and does extend and ramify througk large areas of political territory nd his eay may and likely will have whole lot to do with directing the opera tions of the Hesmann wing of the political lineup in the Willamette Valley But just supposing Binger should by Eome hook and crook get the nomination on the Bepublican'ticket. What would be the result? ,The prophets are all agreed that it would mean the election of Robert Glenn Smith, "the gentleman from Josephine," to the halls of the lower branch of the NationaljLegislature. It teems pretty sure that Robert Glenn Smith will cast his toga at the feet of the fee and sound the slogan of war, ; for it has come tripping on divers tongues from the South during many days that the fire-eatingj .i :.i f-c u Josephine in tendsto shy his castor into the ring. With a campaign motto of "Anti rai rjads and anti-Hermann," many of the foes of the Democracy think they see wherein disaster would wait its conveni ence to call, and it. is a source of some alarm at this early date. Sure it is that the Democrats would hail such a mixup as a message of glad tidings in the Firstf.District where the power of thejenemy haB not been called into questionsince Vanderburg, the Pop nlist, gave Thomas H. Tongue a close shave for Congressional honors in the middle '90s. But, aside from J hese lu gubrious speculations, it seems to be a c juiltiodJ opinion in curbstone circles that the statesman with the glad hand and eolicitouBqnery is doomed by circum stances over which he has no control to go darkling in the trackless void of political and.officiaHbrgetfulness. Wcrk.JSays'Qeorge. Of the convicts confined in the penitentiary only 100 are em ployed in the stove foundry, and the serious problem with which the Governor is now wrestling is how to kee'p the idle ones, who are only an expense . upon the state, in " constant emplovment, for their own good as well as that of the state. He has coniured all kinds of schemes by which he might secure employment for them ontside of the prison, there being nothing for them to do in side. His latest is to put , them to work onjjfarms within easy distance from the prison. Of the more than 200 practi cally unemployed prisoners about 50 are leased out to work on the Marion county roads, and a dozen or so were today put to work for the state in spreading gravel up on the asylum farm road, which was improved by the prison ad ministration last Spring. This leaves over 150 idle convicts in confinement, and the Governor believes that they could be work ed to an advantage upon the farms within a radius of 10 or 12 iwiles of the institution. No contract has been entered into for the employment of the convicts in the Northwest Stove Foundry, nor is there likely to be until the improvements are completed at the prison. "Of Course." fsaid Governor Cham berlain, "you understand that I would take no such risk as to allow the convicts to be taken in charge by the farmers themselves or to enter into contracts with them forftheirlabbr, but my idea r". r I n ft The Kind You Have Always Bought, and which has been, in use for over 30 years, nas borne the signature of 0 And has been made under his per- fL ' sonal supervision since its infancy. uzC7r.
