. Which Is the Better?
The recent speech of 'Mr. Erastus.
Wiman, in which he commends the
building and loan-associations of the
country as preferable. to the old-time
Savings-banks, basins was tohave been
expected, awakened keen interest and
wide discussion in regard to the rela-
tive safety of these institutions. Mr..
Wiman said there had been no time in
the history of this nation when it was
more important that the people should
have confidence- in the safety ofthe
savings banks- than at present. In the
forty-one ’ {New York and Brooklyn
savings banks one million depositors
had $455,000,000 of Savings, which was
equal to two-thirds of the capital of
the national-banksof the entire coun-
The perfect safety of these institu-
tions and the promptilude with which,
at'a large sacrifice of their surplus,
they had looked up all the spare cur-
rency. of thecount-ry, and taken all the
gold they could lay their hands upon
were testimony of the ability under
which they were managed and the
strength with which they were man-
~ aged; :‘ ’ '
Mr. Wimancthought, however, that
it was a serious question whether it
was good economic practice to: the
banks to accept practical call loans of.
$455,000,000 from a'million creditors
and invest, this money in real estate
. mortgagesr’bondsand stocks that could
only be realized upon quickly at a great
loss. He declared that the' building
and loan associations had shown safety.
and greater profit. The money-{could
be used only-for home building.
'It is well=known that the cities of
Philadelphia, Washington, Cincinnati,
and others, have, been largely built up
by these'loan associations,--and where-
ever honestly managed, that- they have
proved a home-getting blessingtoth‘e
poor. In regard to Wiman’s speech,
the Philadelphia Times thus remarks:
’ “Philadelphia having been largely
built by the savings of its working peo-
ple through the medium of its build-
ing and loan associations, and centain-
~ ing the best-hoisted population ,of any
0
city in the world in consequence, does
not need the arguments and oncomi-
urns of others to induce its residents to
continue the policy which has produced
‘ such beneficial results. It is gratifying,
however. to have those who have gene-
~ rally regarded Philadelphia as slow and
behind. the age, Waking up to and ac-
knowledging the fact that in this res-
pect, at least, we have kept not only
abreast, but ahead of the rest of the
world. And, after all, the homes and
home life of any, city or community
are the best_.gauge.andmstandard of its
real prosperity.” .‘ - i .
Both methods of investing small sav-
ings are undoubtedly commendable,
and the question as to which is best
would be answered largely according
to locality. The savings bank deposit
is certainly more available in time of
pinching need; and, goalie-contrary,
, there is a much stronger "temptation to
draw and spend it On‘ account of its
easy availability, There is the addi-
tional argument. in favor of the build-
ing and loan plan, that having once
subscribed for a certain number. of
shares the investor feels himself obliged
to save to meet his paymentsgwhile the
savings bank depbsit may bej‘added to
monthly or not at the discretion of the
depositor. . . .
While these advantages in the build-
ing and loan association plan are ob-
vious to every thoughtful mind, it is
seldnm that a resident of New York or
New,_England, further Says the Times, ._
can be induced to‘ admit its superiority.
An exception ‘ to “this rule must be
—~ quoted in favor of Erastus Wiman, who,
after citing the immense savings of the
working people of NewYork and Brook-4
lyn, recommended the building and
loan association as preferable to the
savingsibanks, and proposed that each
of the 114 churches south of Fourteenth
stree‘t,,_ in Now York, should; organize

that it'WOuld not tie up so many mil-
lions of dollars in times of financial
stringency as the savings bank system .
. is apt to do, quoting the big balances _
the. latter have felt forced to hold
’ . against the'possible demands of de-
positors in the present emergency as
an illustration of. hisp'osition. But the
greater and stronger reason presented
was that it‘made‘ saving a perpetual
habit instead of a spasmodic practice,
while the hope and final realization of
the possession of a home dignified and
elevated the individuals and families
that'participated in its benefits.

City own and live in houses costing
from $2,000 to $5,000 each, which they

than bylmeans of the very perfect sys-
tem of loan and building associations,

The Janko Key-boardiplano.
In compliance with the GaznTTn’s
solicitation, the following descriptive
account of the new, and in the view of
piano artists of the highest culture, the
most perfect key-board'action, yet de-
vised is given our readers, by one who
may be said to have mastered this new,
unique and in some respects, marvel-c
one instrument: ~
What is it i What are its advantages?
Does it lessen the labor ? Is it expen-
sive ? Can it be attached to any piano?
are some of the questions which the
J anko pianists are-desired to answer.
To answer negatively first, it is not
an attachment, it is a key-board, one
which could be put’into any piano, new
or old, though it would be exceedingly
unwise to take the trouble to remove
the flat key-board from an old piano
and put in a J anko key-board. A new
piano with the J anko key-board is
somewhat but not very much more ex-
pensive than the same piano in the
ordinary form. It is no great labor-
saving device which will enable any-
body and ’everybody'tdplay the, piano
without serious study. To play well
upon the J anko will always" require
serious, thoughtful, earnest study just
as really as upon the flat key-board.
But not the wearying, hopeless study.
The Janko is a key-board in every
way advantageous to the musician,
for it is possible to play everything
that has been written for the piano
without once adopting an awkward po-
sition of the hand. It consists of six
rows of keys, or three pairs of rows,
‘not at all, as is often supposed, like the
banks of keys on an organ, but one
row above another like stairs, the dis-
tance between each two rows being a
half step, thereby shortening the oc-
tave, and rendering the scale perfectly
uniform, so that there are practically
but two scales to learn, one major and
one minor. But to say that it lessens the
labor of acquiring a good technique is
by no means to say, ‘asis often sup-
posed, that good playing will become
common. The artistic temperament is,
and always will be rare. But the Janko
key-board will enable a multitude of
sincere students to enter a field of mu-
sical literature which, from having
small or weak hands, they must forever
stay out of, and can play and enjoy
playing, for they can play comfortably
and competently, music which they
could not. possibly aspire to on the
other key-board. Indeed that may be
said to be the crowning excellence of
the J anko key-board. It is possible to
give orchestral fullness and also that
.greater artistic excellence, orchestral
smoothness and repose upon the J anko
which is not to be attained upon the
ordinary piano. ~ ‘
”Will it come soon into general use?”
is the invariable question. N o onecan
tell. But that it will come, reason and
experience answer—Yrs. ‘

A- Whistleville Hungarian Bites
His Mother-in-Law. '
Threatens to Cut Officer Glad-
stone's Heart Out.
As Oflioer Gladstone-was making'his
rounds in Whistleville last night he
was informed that} Hungarian woman
had been badly bitten by a. Hungarian
, When 9
oflicer arrived on the scene the injured
woman, who proved to be Mrs. Julia
Hudock, Palankosh’s mother-in-law,
refused to have him arrested until this
mormng. The ofiicer told Palankosh,
who was drunk, to go into the house
and behave himself, but instead of
obeying he followed the ofiicer out on
the porch of the house and threatened
to cut his heart out if he attempts
ed to arrest him without a. ‘warrant.
The officer at once placed him under
arrest and looked him up. ‘
This morning Mrs. Hudock appeared
before Justice Barrett, her young
daughter acting as interpreter, , and
said that sheha’d been taking careof
Paiankosh’s children during the day,
while their mother was at work, and
last evening she accompanied them
home. When they arrived at her son-
in-law’s house it was found that the lit-
tle girl, who had been'entrusted with
the key, had lost it and they could not
open the door. Mrs. Palankosh be-
came an ry and gave the little girl a
push, w lch caused her to fall and
strike her nose, making it bleed. As
she was .mpmg the 4b and from her
grandchrld’s face Palankosh appeared
on the scene and wanted to know who
had hurt the child. When informed
that his wrfe had! pushed her down he
flew at her and struck her and attempt-
ed to bite her nose. Mrs. Hudock in-
terfered and placed the back of? her
hand over Palankosh’s mouth and the
now thoroughly infuriated Hun grasped
the hand with his teeth and tore the
flesh. from‘ ofii‘it, making a horrible
looking and dangerous wound.
Palankosh, in his own defense, said
that he was drunk, and promised Jus-
tice Barrett not to do it again, but the
Justice failed to see it in that light, and
adjourned the case until to-morrow

It Was Faulty.
County Commissioner Rowland re-
served a remonstrance against an appli-
cant for a saloon license in the town of
Westport Tuesday, which was faulty.
It failed to give the name of the appli-
cant but ave the name of the building.
The law istinctly states that the name
of the applicant must be given, and as
it was not, the commissioners can take
no notice of the remonstrance.
It is supposed that. the remonstrance
was aimed at Charles G. Oche who has
applied for a license in the Wheeler
building. Nc reason is given why a sa-
loon is not wanted, ‘but it-is probable
that there was no objection to Mr. Oche
but to his proposed location. The re-
monstrants are : Frederick Kemper,
butcher ;‘ Theodore Olsen, shoe-dealer ;
William Edward Nash, book‘ seller ;
J 08. S. Richards,merchant. The gentle-
man who filed the remonstrance first
wanted to file a verbal one but, was
told such werenot noticed. .
Westport now-has eight saloons and
one drug store licensed. ' "

Tuesday afternoon a Hun. was assist-
ed from a tramway car On Wall street
by deputy sheriff. Toner; , Conductor
McGowan explained that the man, who
could not speak English, had met with
an accident, and' had been placed on
the'car With the request that he direct
‘him to the’h‘ospital. Mr. Toner seated
the fellow in a chair near the Norwalk
hotel, and a‘ ceach being“ secured, he
turned him, over to Chief Dann, who
accompanied him to the hospital, where
.Dr. Gregory found that the man had
suffered a severe contusion on the back
of his head, but how he could not
learn. The doctor dressed the wound,
and the man w111_ probably be discharged
from the hospital to-day. It is under-
stood that the wound was caused by a
premature blast at East Norwalk, a frag-
ment of the rock blasted striking the
poor fellow on the head, causing a
wound that bled very profusely. .

' A Crisis Approaching In France’s Affair!
. ' In. That Country.
LONDON, SeptL- 56.-'—The Times’ corre-
spondent reiterates the statement that
England is attacked through Siam and has
’ already lost prestige in the east thereby.
He addathat the Chinese are preparing in
southern Y-im-N an and Quang-Si to protect
their interests;,on the left bank’of the Me-
Kong river and that the. French are likely
soon to find themselves in a disagreeable
dilemma unless they'efiectively occupy the
annexed territory now being evacuated by
the Siamese. - .
China may practically assert her rights,
of- sovereignty over Siam, which she had
never practically abandoned; while if the
French occupy the country they will find
the Chauvinism policy extremely expen-
sive. The French commander‘at Chanta-
boon has asked for re-enforcements-‘from'
Saigon, as. he considers his position unsafe.
