nouncement of tne secretary s plans Is to be made public and at the same tlma a full description given as to just what is to bo done. ? The agitation for a change ln the paper currency of the country was begun at about the time Secretary . MacVeagh assumed the portfolio of

tne treasury. , sine then, financiers have. been working over-time to get some Idea as to Just what the department Is about to do. . It . has been shown by banking interests that at least , $200,000 a year ' can ' be saved by them. If tbe size of paper money . . . . . .

What MacVeaah Says. In an Interview with Mr. MacVeagh concerning the subject.' ho said: "For more than a year the treasury department has contemplated systemIsing the resigns for United States note and gold and sliver certificates and a reduction ln the also of paper currency. No less than nineteen miscellaneous portraits and historic designs appear on the Issues now current These servo no useful purpose M MM AS A-a M ' a a aa

in raenuiying toe denomination or note and the design they bear have not boon selected according to any schemo of historical balance. As an example of exlsUn confusion, the present one dollar silver certificate bear tho portraits of both Lincoln and Grant. Tho plan la to reduce these nineteen miscellaneous designs to nine, selecting tho portraits, with soao reference to tho importance and position of their subjects la American history, and using tho same portrait on ono denomination throughout. The

on the face and back of the note as at present. . ' . . "Tbe department might feel warranted In proceeding to change the designs of the notes without awaiting suggestions of banking institutions, but a somewhat different proposition is presented ln tbe plan to reduce tbe sizes of the notes to six by two and one half Inches. Tbe department recognises that public convenience Is more or less involved in a system to which most of tbe cash drawers and pocket books of the country have been adapted, hence It Is disposed to welcome criticisms and suggestions from bankers and business men before attempting any radical changes." The treasury department committee which has this work in hand has

business public would be correspondingly inconvenienced. I think, however, that this objection could be

i largely. If not almost wholly overcome

by preparing ln advance enough of tbe new notes so that they could be exchanged for old notes on a fixed date at all sub-treasuries, banks and other large - financial institutions. I am convinced that the criticisms of the proposed change are based rather upon considerations of temporary inconvenience than upon essential and insurmountable objections. If this is the . case , these . objections should hardly be permitted to Btand in the way of permanent progress and economy. ' ' "No special legislation is necessary to enable the government to reduce the size of the United States notes and gold and silver certificates.

SPECIAL MUSIC. V : The special music at the revival meetings which are being held at the

East Main Street Friends church, is an attractive feature. The chorus is a large one and is one of the best ever

heard in this city. ' j CONCERNING HEINEMANN

Alexander Helnemann was eulogiz

ed by the Berlin press after his even

ing of Loewe ballads in Beethoven

hall on October 11. An excerpt from

The following clipping from the Musical Courier concerning - -Cecil Fanning who iwill sing here Jthls winter under the auspices of the - Music Study club is of interest to musicians: Cecil Fanning and H. 'B. Turpin gave a thoroughly . delightful song recital at Ohio State university last Friday ." afternoon. " The weather was atrocious and , the university a good

three miles from the .center of the city, the long walk from car through

the campus to the chapeL testing tbe

courage of the stoutest 'heart; but

these discouraging obstacles had no effect on the ardor of the soloist's admirers, the chapel as usual crowded to its -tJoor to hear this truly sincere and altogether' delightful artist and

his teacher -accompanist -companion-friend, who is the other half of this musical combination.' It is rare to see such joy in co-operative work as these

two artists show, one seeming to be a perfect complement of the other.

plan. Discussing the details, Mr. MacVeagh continued: "I am hopeful the public will consider favorably the economics and other advantages which would result ultimately from the use of somewhat smaller curency. The present size of paper currency is 3:04 inches wide by 7:28 Inches long. It has been 'suggested that our notes be reduced to 6 Inches by ZV inches, the same size as - the Philippine , paper currency, which has proved an unqualified success, and a slse which, when it Is not brought Into direct comparison with the present note, would not present a noticeable change. From the treasury point of view, tho proposed reduction would result In an estmated saving of $1,000,000 every year. This saving would be gained from various sources. For example we would print five notes where we print four now and the Increased production of twenty-five per cent more notes with the same labor as at present, would save more than $200,000 a year alone.
