The smallest baby in the world was re-
Gently born. mining camp at Cam
delaria, Nevada. The father is miner
and weighs 100 pounds. The mother is
stout, healthy woman, weighing per-

as perfecuk formed as any human being
can be, but upon its birth it only weighed
eight ounces. Its face is about the size
of horse-chest-n and a ring worn on
the little finger of its mother was easily
slipped over its foot nearly up to the
knee. In the opinion of the attending
phsician the child will live and pros.

diminutive proportions. The midget is
so small that three of its size could play

Bloody w ork.

GKACEvILLE, Mimi, Dec. l5.-Jonn
Callaghan, having been on long spree,
was being taken home by his son, aged
l2. to-day. when Marshal Noonsn
attempted to arrest Callaghan. A
blacksmith named Morris interfered
and the father and son drove away.
During the row that followed they
were pursued and four shots fired
at them. The father was killed in
stautly aud two shots penetrated
the body of the boy, causing
fatal injuries. The crowd. attracted by
their outcries, found Noonan and Nor
ris clenching, and each charging the
other with murder. Both were ar.
rested. The citizens were 80 ex-
cited that if they had known
which one was guilty they would
have lynched him. The boy on giving
his supposed dying statement said he
believed Noonap did the shooting. bus
would not swear to it. There is no
positive evidence as to the murderer,
though several arrests have been made.

leges q ring was formed by the
honest @ Aldermen, who de-
manded $4,000 as the price
for the desired grants. The
company, declining to be bled
in this manner, has decided to
disband, sell its property and
divide the proceeds. If half of
what the News says is true,
Chicago has a set of Aldermen

CHECKING THE SILvEE
COINAGE.

The usual anti-silver bill is
again before Congress. 1t pro-
poses to check the coinage OF
silver and is the outgrowth Of
some of John Sherman's child
ish whims, backed up by the
gold ring of Wall street. The
only argument brought forward
by the manipulators of the bill is
that there is a glut of silver dol
lars in the Treasury. There is
at present more gold than silver,
yet we hear of no proposition to
stop coming gold. The passage
of the bill would result in the
closing of the Carson N int, and
we are not SO sure but that is
after all the real object aimed
at. The Mint has enemies at
Washington as well as at home,
and Senator Jones should see
that the plans of both are
brought to naught. There is no
demand on the part of the coun-
try at large to stop the coinage
of silver dollars. If there is a
slut of these dollars in the
Treasury, why don't the Secre-
tary of the Treasury call in the
dirty, tattered greenbacks,
rendolent with a thousand diff
ferent perfumes and covered
with layers of grease, and give
the people new silver dollars in
exchange. The only bar to the
working of the plan is that the
financial taste of the people in
the East is so vitiated that they
prefer the ragged paper to the
solid coin, and esteem the
promise Of things to be, better
than the things themselves.

Affairs In Ireland.

LONDON, Dec. l4.-Lord Derby, in a
speech at Manchester yesterday, said
his personal opinion was that some mil.
lions spent in promoting emigration
from Ireland would be a profitable ex-
penditure. He believed that in few
years, despite the Land Ac', small
tenants in Ireland would be Just as de-
pendent as ever on the forbearance of
landlords. Thus the old difficulties
would recur, but he thought the gov.
eminent should abstain from encourag.
ing fresh proposals for legislation in
regard to Irish land. The COVER nmept
should refuse to listen for an hour to
the claim for Irish nationality, in what.
ever disguise it is presented. An Irish
Parliament would lead to separation

ments regarding the Nicaraguan Canal
bill. He says it is evident that Mr..
Blaine has never read the Nicaragua
Canal hill, or he would not have
asserted that the Government ia thereby
required to expeud $4,000, 900 for its
construction. The bill does not require
that the Government shall expend one
cent in the construction of the canal.
the responsibility of which rests. as it
should, entirely upon the company.
The remarks attributed to Mr.. Blaine,
IN reference to the bearing Of the
Clayton Bulwer treaty, are equally in
explicable. There is not clause either
in the franchise from Nicaragua or in
the bill before Congress, which con-
tiicts with the Clayton Bulwer treaty.
On the contrary, the franchise distinc'.
ly affirms the neutrality of the canal,
and provides for the levying of an equal
tariff on ships of all nations. except
upon ships owned by our Government,
which may have the free use of the
canal. If Mr.. Blaine holds that the
Clayton Bulwer treaty ia, or should be.
operative, there is nothing in the bill
to prevent the joint guarantee of neu-
trality required by said treaty, and on
the completion of the work we can in
vite Great Britain to join US in carry
ing out the provisions of the treaty. If
Mr.. Blaine holds that the Clayton
Bulwer treaty is not operative, or that
the time has arrived when the Govern
ment shall ask its amendment or abro- !
cation by giving the required notice,
there is abundant time to effect this |
during the four or five years required |
for construction. Captain Merry thinks,
be discussed until the completion of the
canal. Abiding to Mr.. Blaine's refer.
ence to the defenseless condition Of tire
Pacific coast, he asks: "What can be
more defenseless than our present con.
dition? Either Chile, Japan or Great
Britain have naval ornaments con.

srs, by furnishing the personnel aud

Civil Service Reform.

WASHINGTON. Dec. l5.-In the Sen.
ate yesterday afternoon Hoar spoke on
the Pendleton Civil Service Reform
bill, and expressed the belief that the
passage of this bill would mark an i'm
portant era in American politics, and
be regarded in the future as almost
equal to the adoption of a new and
better Constitution. Brown, of Geor.
gia. opposed the bill and did little
plain talking to the Democrats. The
obj ct of the bill, he said. was to give the
Republican party permanent tenure
of office, and the Republican party is
clearly minority of the people of this
country. George thought there was
reason in the obj ~c.ion, but did not the
bill open the offices to competition to
all! He expressed regret that Brown
had broken its force by meeting it with
an argument that the bill would do the
Democratic party an injustice. He was
not yet as confident as Blown appeared
to be of Democratic triumph in 1884,
aid he thought the reverses of the Re.
pub!icans this year were to be attrihut-
ed in large measure to that p,rty hav-
ing occupied the very position upon this
question which Brown now wished the
Democrats to take. He agreed with
Brown that this bill if passed would
not prevent a Democratic President
when h. did come in from following
Jefferson's rule. In a colloquv be.
tween Beown and George the latter
admitted that he would have Dem.
ocratic President turn out every office
holder who responded to the political
assessment in the last campaign.
Laughter.
Brown offered an amendment strik.
ing out the provision that entrance to
the civil service shall be at the lowest
grade. and providing that the COMPETE
ton shall be for Offices IF all grades,
and shall not be confined to persons al.
ready in Office; also an amendment ex.
