The Saratoga committee have issued
the following circular to college boating
officers: Inform us how many rowing
men will come from your college; if you
intend to bring up spare men, and also
number of servants. We wish the col
ors of each college, therefore, please
state what they are, and whether you
will bring your own for bost-house and
stand. W. will willingly furnish them,
if iAconvenient for your college to do so.
Also state how many grand stand tick
cts your college will require. We will
provide a hall for the literary contest
Also grounds for the base bali tourna-
ment, and proper course for the foot
race. We understand that the college
usually selects some hotel for their
headquarters. 1t is then evident that
such arrangement should be made in
time to prevent conflict afterward. This
looks like business, but there must be

Governor Aliens Views on the
Currency Question.

A great many people have wondered
how Governor Allen viewed the cur
rency question, and We ara pleased to
be able to turn little light upon the
problem. From excellent authority we
learn that Governor Alien Is in favor
of wiping out the National hank swim
die entirely; then establish . basis for Q
circulating medium, and let the Gov.
eminent issue its money directly to the
people, giving as its security the sta
bility of the United States Govern
ment. Then let banks be established
by persons who wish TO do Q discount
and deposit business, but who shall NOT
issue money. And, after having es-
tahlished basis for currency circula-
ton, the Governor would provide at
certain periods increased currency in
proportion to increase in the popula-
ton of the country. ratf iff6'i
Thus we see that Governor Allen u
what is known 40 an ssinflationist." I"
He does not believe in making the
currency circulation smaller, while the
population and diversified interests 81
the country are growing larger. Mf.
Allen believes that Judge Thur
man will find it difRcult to explain his
position Satisfactorily to the people.
From another gentleman We learn that
the Governor said or intimated that,
under the circumstances, he would
have voted for the Merimon bill had
he been q member of Congress,

The lawyers of indianapolis are tor
turing their brains over an extraordi-
nary problem. Some years ago lady
of that city was married, and four
months thereafter separated from her
husband, was divorced and remarked
in a month, and four months thereafter
gave birth to child by her first hus-
band. Quite recently the second hus-
band procured divorce, and the Gus
tody of the child was awarded to him.
Now comes the first husband and
claims the child. Who is entitled to
its possession?
