Paris, March 23. One of the most fntAroxtinsr incidents of the visit of

French Parliamentarians to Russia was the Inspection of the gold in the vaults of the Russian State Bank. The members of the deputation, having been invited to visit, among other Institutions, the State Bank, M. Kokovtzeff, the Minister of Finance, unexpectedly turned up at the appointed hour, and himself took the visitors around, leading them straight to' the vaults through the heavy steel door which separates them from the rest of the premises. The vaults are fitted round the walls with enormous shelves, where behind iron gates lie enormous bars of gold, each weighing thirty-six pounds, and measuring oyer five feet in length. Close by are -disposed in symmetrical order bag3 of minted gold. M. Kokovtzeff made a little speech to the visitors. "I have seen," he said, "in one of your reviews an article describing our prosperity as a 'Russian swindle.' Permit me, gentlemen, to show the laboratory of this 'swindle.' " "Well said," politely commented Baron d'Estournelles. Each Bar Worth $10,000. M. Kokovtzeff continued: "You see here, gentlemen, 90,000,000 pounds of gold, worth $400,000,000. Each bar is worth $10,000. I am often reproached with being unduly optimistic, but I think the state of the Russian finances justifies my optimism.

"Permit me to remind you that the last Russian loan in France was con

cluded under unfavorable circum

stances, but the French capitalists w ho have invested their money in that loan are now getting something like

seventeen per cent on their capital

You see, then, the trust placed by them in Russia, has been perfectly

justified."

M. Kokovtzeff then broke the seals of one of the bags and emptied it into

a big bowl. The coins merrily sound

ed, while M. Kokovtzeff related how

M. Rouvier, the Minister of Finance,

once ioici mm mat in case of war a decree would instantly be issued in France fixing an obligatory rate of exchange. "I would draw your attention to the fact," M. Kokovtzeff added, "that we went through the war with Japan without having had recourse to such a decree. $500,000,000 in Paper. He then showed his visitors another part of the vaults where $500,000,000 worth of paper money is kept, and the crematorium, where worn-out notes are destroyed He presented to each of the delegates a newly coined tenrouble piece as a memento, whereupon Baron d'Estournelles thanked the Minister in the name of his colleagues, adding: "We know well that Russia, whom we have, perhaps, assisted a little, is a rich and powerful country. We know this fact not merely from this gold.

You are rich in the vast expanse of

your country, in her mineral treasures

and then you have another source of wealth I mean, your young: Parlia

ment." Whether M. Kokovtzeff, who once solemnly thanked God in the Duma that Russia had no Parliament, was

pleased with the unexpected turn of Baron d'Estournelle's speech is not known. It may be added that the Rus

sian state debt has increased in ten

Los Anseles. March 23, There is

something new tinder the sun in phll

Busch, who, in addition to his St,

in an altruistic benaii, oi an immense sum of money from his own

fortune.

In brief, his new enterprise may be

summed up in the statement that he

is going to provide, so far as the fund

he has established may do so, com forts and happiness for his 7,000 em

ployes, their wives, their children and

since some are old their children's

children.

This springs from an inspiration

and long planning of the St. Louis

brewer who, like others, has exper

ienced an "overflow" of money.

The plans, which have been developed in the main, but lack a few de

tails, were furnished on Mr. Busch's

iauthority, by E. A. Faust, his son-in-

law. Six Divisions in Fund.

In the great fund to be disbursed

Ordinary materials and ordinarry workmanship make an ordinary buggy. That's the reason most buggies are a good deal alike. The buggy we are showing here is different. It's better. No haphazard methods of building, no indifferent material enters into its construction. All the wood on which there is any strain is selected second growth hickory. The axles are long distance, the springs are oil tempered and hand fitted. There are no weak parts, there are no hidden defects in the whole construction. A letter LgMei lijiiy Most buggies look too much alike. There is the same kind of finish, the same general lir&s about them. This buggy looks different. Note the high arched axles. See the artistic back panels, note the curved lines of the seat, the top and the dash. The secret of its beauty lies in its curves, not in itstraight lines. It's a buggy that the owner will be proud of; it's a buggy that its owner will be pleased with pleased with its looks and with the long, satisfactory service it will give him.
