The New Nickle Coins Suppressed.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-The objection
of secret service men to the new SC coin.
which they claim could be made to re-
semble So gold piece by gliding, has, it
is reported. caused the Treasury Depart
ment to order an immediate suspension
of further coinage. This report yester.
day afternoon caused a number of brok-
ers to send orders to Philadelphia for the
purchase of all that could be secured.
The director of the mint. in defense of
his design, claims that the omission of
the word cents on the new coin is not of
Importance. as none of the Sc pieces are
80 marked. The fact that one side of the
new DC piece is fac-simile of a So gold
piece is sufficient to make the issue a
dangerous one, to say nothing of the neg
lect to stamp the word cents on it.

the great benefits received from his 'Fa-

power of the medicine in some new, and,
perhaps, hitherto untested phase of oper-

miles to tell the story Of his deliverance
in person, to grasp the doctor by the

deepens and multiplies." ct

A bill has been introduced in the Leg
islature to increase the fees of jurors in
Justices court from 80 cents to $3.50 per
day. This is right, and should at once
become a law. II is an outrage to drag a
man away from his business and force
him to settle the petty quarrels Of all the
ragtag and bobtail Of the country at a
compensation of so cents per day, while

The Blind Man.

That a man may be blind in more
ways than one is conceded by almost
everybody. The man who is physical
ly blind, whose eyes have been de-
stroyed by disease or the sight re-
moved by some accident, is to be
pitied and he should have the sympa,
thy and share the charity OF every
GOOD citizen. But the man who is
blind intellectually or spiritually, who
at this day and age does not post him,
self as to his immediate surroundings,
does not make himself acquainted with
the general topics of the day, does not
know whether he is Presbyterian OF
a Methodist, Republican or Demo
crat is to he censured rather than
pitied, because in these days OF cheap
literature, and the world is full OF 1t.
a man need not go to the expense OF
travelling he can stay right at his own
fireside and make himself fully &C
ouainted with everything that is going
ON in the world, and thus become a
good Judge of the principles and char
acters which are best calculated to adj
vance the interests Of every country
and better the condition OF every lndl'
yidual. 1t may be well perhaps, to
state right here for the benefit OF those
who may not be acquainted OF the fact,
that Saur makes a speciality OF keeping
constantly on hand all the best and
choicest literature of the day at his
large drug and book store and any
book, paper or magazine published
anywhere in the world will be fur
nished on the shortest possible notice,
in any language desired. And we will
say further that you will not only find
Saur's drugs and medicines is always
complete, and will compare favorably
in quantity, variety, price and quality
with that of any other drug house any
where east or west, north or south. 1t
has become byword, and deservedly
too, that when you fail to ind any spe-
sial or particular kind of medicine
everywhere else, that by going to
Saur's drug and book store you will be
sure to find it.
In the line of holiday goods, Saur
is always up with the times and has
everything that is beautiful as we'll as
useful at prices which are within the
reach of everv one. In fact low prices
on all kinds of goods sold at this house
have ever been the mottos which have
given this house a reputation which is
not excelled and which every one is
proud to speak of. Saur has always
recognized this fact in all his dealings,
that honest square dealing, represent
ing your goods none other than that
which they are, is the only true road
to success, and he who prospers by any
other is sooner or later, either in this
world or the next, hound to retrace
his steps, make right what he has
made wrong, or else forever suffer the
penalty which attaches to all that is
bad.

Il has long been the belief that por-

Some recent observation confirm this be-
lief. Between latitude go and 10 degrees,
buildings have to be continually moved
inland, or they get below the level Of the

dences that the land is rising in Sweden
and Norway. Buildings have to be con-
tinually removed so as. to bring them

 President Charles A. Brainard, of the State bank of Hartford has paid of all his indebtedness to the other banks of Hartford, amounting to about $500, ,OOO. He was borrower from nearly all the eighteen banks of the city, and his credit was so good that his paper was taken without en- dorsement. Last week three of the banks refused to renew notes amounting to $65, ,OOO. He then borrowed $40, 900, giv- ing mortgage therefor on his $6O, ,0O0 resi- dence, and since this transaction capitalists, to whom blanket mortgage of $500, 900 on all his real estate is to be executed, have come to the rescue. It appears that much of the large amount of stock held in his name was carried for him on borrowed money. Sometimes this operation was profitable, but in some years it caused him loss of from S25, 900 to $50, O,OO0. His friends think that he will pull through the present embar- rassment and have balance of from $50, 900 to $1eO, 900. His own bank is not involved in his affairs. MT. Brainard has been in his own habits economical to the point of parsi- mony, but his household expenses have been heavy, amounting, as he says, to about $25,- GOO year. This with the other drains upon him were more taan he could stand, and notwithstanding his extensive real estste-in value about $eOO, OOO-he has been in fnan- cial distress for years
