A Blighted Life

A few mornings since a Philadelphia
ma,ron called to see her young married
daughter. who resides on North
Eleventh street, and found her weeping
bitterly.
.'Oh. mother take me home. My
heart is broke, sobbed the daughter,
throwing herself into her mothors arms.
After her tears had somewhat sub
sided the mother said:
"HardIy year married, and here l
find you in tears. What does this mean
Has Henry been unkind to youH'
No" sobbed the daughter, "but he
doesn't love me any longer and my
heart is breaking"
"Come, come, child, cheer up. Tell me
why you think him untrue to you.
Does he show it2"
"Yes," was the heart-broken reply.

last winter he never SAID word when l

Inconvenience or Mining Region

Virginia City (Nev.) Enterprise.
Old residents are concerned about
breathing in the quartz dust blown
about from G street. II has diamond
sharpness which is peculiarly distressing,
but, remembering the past, they fear
worse consequence from other causes.
In the early days of Virginia the street
was covered with quartz from the Ophir.
Then, as now, when this covering be-
came powdered it arose in immense
clouds of dust. Soon after nearly the
whole community was afflicted with
liberated sore threats. This, at the
time, was supposed to have been caused
by some poisonous mineral existing in
the ore OF the quartz, which became in.
fused in the system by inhaling the dust.
This may or may not have been true,
but, q. any rate, the present dust is very
d,sacreeabfe, and the sprinklers should
be running as sooc as possible.

The Dummies Cheaper than Horse
Cars.

Philadelphia Times, April 8.
The weeks trial of the dummies on
Market street has resulted favorably. A
comparison ofthe receipts of the steam
and horse cars shows a balance in favor
of the former. Five of the best paying
horse cars averaged $65, in cash receipts,
while the five dummies averaged over
$780, in cash receipts, the fare being
five cents. The cost of running a horse
car one week-not including care of the
horse in stable, shoeing or wear and tear
of harness is $62.s6, while the cost OF
running steam car for the same period
is $54.SO making a saving in favor OF
the steam cars of over 1886, to say
nothing of the extra comfort to passen.

Silver.

The Silver question IS becoming one Of
importance, as we'll as of general interest.
The Tabernacle at Chicago contained an
audience of 5000 people last Thursday
evening, at which some some of the most
prominent gentlemen of the city and State
were present, and participated in the dis
cussion. 1t can hardly be called discus
ion, IS the speakers and audience were
unanimous upon the one thing considered,
the reconciliation of silver. It appears
that in 1873 Congress passed an act, pro-
hibiting coinage Of any money not men
toned in the bill. This barred the max.
ing Of the silver dollar, and after the law
Of that session had been codifed by some
means unknown, it was found that there
had been clause inserted absolutely de-
moaet.z;ng silver, and this Of course is the
law to day. And now when redemption
and paying of bonds occur, the effect of
the law is experienced, and is far from sat
isfactory. The charge Is made that this
law was passed at the instigation Of bond
holders who desiring to make the article
of gold alone the unit of value as legal
tender, and to increase the purchasing
power of the unit money, gold, adopted
this plan of discarding the use of silver,
and in support of this bill. or law, - i,
now stands, its advocates argue that the
nations faith and credit would be impair
ed and forfeited with foreign bond holders,
should the bonds be paid in any thing but
gold. This theory Is false one, - tho
bonds we're pledged to be paid in es'n.
And silver is and was at that time as much
coin a. gold. The masses are being agitated
upon this attempt, ignoring silver, are call
ing upon their representatives in Congress
to repeal the law of 1878, which will in all
probability be done.
