New.paper. anal cranr. pca,h.

Probably not since the assassination Of
Lincoln has the death of any American
caused So extended a demand for news
papers as tho demise Of Gen. Grant has.
1t is interesting to compute the number OF
newspapers that were sold Friday. There
are 200 dailics published IN the United
States. The combined circulation of these
papers Friday was probably 10000, 900
copies. about one-sisth Of the population
Of the nation. 1t is safe To estimate that
the average quantity of matter printed
about Grant was ten columns in each Of
these 100 newspapers-7he Tribune
Republican published twenty-three col
umns. This would make n total of H.
600 columns devoted to Grant, his death,
biography. etc. lfthis were printed in
book form it would make $4,000 pages Of
an octave, in BREWER type; or $1,000 pages
of duarto, or a. much matter as there is in
the American Cyclopedia. The cost of
composition of this vast amount of type
that is, the money paid to printers who
set it up-was about $40, 900. OF course
this does not include the cost ofpress work,
paper, etc. There probably never was an
occasion when the newspapers Of the
United States paid 70 much money to
print the obituary offs man, nor a time
when 50 many newspapers were sold.

In SHARP contrast with the sudden car
mage on the fields where Grants high
fame was won is the peaceful night scene
wherein, like a fading fame that flickers
long, the old soldier passed away.
When Lincoln fell, while the echo of the
war still ruInblcd along the sky, anger
wrestled with horror and grief
When Garfield died the universal sor-
row had an undertono of political anger,
too.
In the slow fading out of Grant upon
the mountain there is nothing but deep
seated grief and tranquil awe, ns though a
great loved spirit of the antique world was
taking on Immortality and yisibly entering
the twilight of the gods.-Me,o KorI,

ONE of the best stories told Of President
Cleveland lately is to the effect that when
n member of congress was urging him re-
Gently to appoint one Of his constituents to
Office he mildly inquired how long the
applicant had been in Washington. He
has been here nearly three months on ex-
pcnsc, was the reply, and he is grow
ing very anxious Very good, said
the president, IF your friend has any
business he has been neglecting it severely
for three months, and he would probably
neglect the governments business in the
same way if should appoint him. If he
has no business to neglect he is not the
kind of man wanted at present in the gov
eminent service" That settled it, and in
this particular instance the amiable prcsi-
dent wa not imposed on.

The Size of Noali's Ark.
fExchanvr

The exact size OF Noah's ark has not
been determined definitely, but, accord
ing to Sir Isaac Newtonls calculations,
based on his estimate of the length of a
eubit in feet and inches, the historical
barge must have been 515.0 o. feet long,
So. "a wide, and 81. SO deep. The meas
ured tonnage of the ark was IL, 1872.
The Great Eastern was $50 feet long,
SO feet wide and 50 feet deep, and she
measured 2s, 00s tons. Although the
Great Eastern was not so well proper
TONED as the ark, she probably had
double the carrying capacity il her coal
and machinery were left out of her, be-
cause sho was made Of iron and the ark
was a wooden ship.

Piles are frequently preceded by a sense
Of want Of weight in the back, loins and
lower part OF the abdomen, causing the
patient to suppose he has some affection
of the kidneys OF neighboring organs. AT
times, symptoms ofindigestion are present
iatulency, uneasiness of the stomach, etc.
A moisture like perspin.ion, producing a
very disagreeable itching, after getting
warm. is q common attendant. Blind,
bleeding and itching piles yield at once to
the application Of DR.. Bosanko's Pile
Remedy, which acts directly on the parts
effected, absorbing the tumors, allaying
the intense itching, and effecting a per
