CARSTENS BILL This Is a game In wtTich no one Is allowed to smile and laugh. All the players, except one, sit In a row or half-circle, one goes out of the room and returns with a Btick or poker In his band, and a grave and solemn face. He Is supposed to have just re turned from a visit to Bull. The first player asks him: "Where do you come from?” "From Buff.” The next asks: “Did he say any thing to you?” To which the reply la: "Buff said 'Baff.” And gave me this staff, Telling me neither to smile or to laugh. Buff says 'Baff' to you all hla men, And I say 'Baff' to you again. And he neither laughs nor smiles. In spite of all your cunning wiles, But carries his face with a very good grace. And passes hla staff to the vary next place.” If he can repeat all this without laughing he delivers up hla staff to some one else, and takes bis seat; but If he laughs, or even smiles, he pays a forfeit before giving It up.

W ashington, D. C.—Strongly u rging radical reform of the “ unreasoned and unscientific banking and currency sys tem of the U nited S ta te s,” Franklin MacVeagh, secretary of the treasury, freely w arns congress in his annual re port th a t the Federal governm ent, as long as the present scheme exists, will be exclusively responsible for the com m ercial, industrial and social disasters which flow from panics, and attack directly or indirectly every home in the nation. He outlined his idea of the necessary general provisions of an adequate relief m easure, such as should bring the banks into organized co-operation and provide for a central agency, through which they could work together, free o f political or tru st control. The secretary foresees a deficit of $22,556,023, exclusive of Panam a canal expenditures, for the fiscal y ear ending June 30, 1914. In cluding the canal expenses, the deficit is estim ated a t $52,730,455. The es tim ated receipts for th a t y ear are $710,000,000, while the ordinary ap propriations are estim ated a t $732,- 556,023, and the canal expenditures a t $30,174,432. These estim ates are based upon present laws. For the cu rren t fiscal year, ending June 30, 1913, MacVeagh estim ates th a t th ere will be a surplus of $40,- 200,000, exclusive of Panam a canal expenditures, and a deficit of $1,800,- 000, including the canal transactions. He estim ates receipts for this y ear at $711,000,000, and ordinary disburse m ents a t $670,000,000.

He does not like the g irls’ mode of skirts, picture hats and m atinee a ttire . Senator B irdsall’s plan is to in tro duce a bill in the next legislature re g ulatin g the dress of high school s tu dents. He will aim to m ake the style of dress worn by girls and boys in Cal ifornia high schools uniform in cut and m aterial. The bill will provide th a t goods in the g irls’ sk irts, coats and w aists shall be of the same m aterial for all the girl students. T h eir hats are to be of a standard price.

Indianapolis—“ Good cooks are more necessary than governors,” said Gov ernor M arshall in his address before the Indianapolis Council of Women. “ I think there is no one in this world, aside from my w ife, th a t is more com p e te n t than my cook. I think she is well educated. I don’t suppose she would be received a t m any of the so cial functions, b u t she does her work as it should be done. Any w orking man in th is city doing honest work is more im p o rtan t to th is sta te than the governor of In d ian a .” W ashington, D. C.—The fight over W estern assay offices is to be renewed a t th is session, the house com m ittee on appropriations having stricken from the legislative bill reported all appropriations for assay offices except those a t S eattle, Deadwood and New York. A t th e last session the house re versed the com m ittee on this issue, and probably will do so again this session. If the house does not, the senate will restore the appropriations and thereby keep the offices open. Mexicans Jail Americans. Liberty Statue Finished. El Paso, T ex.—J .
