Several weeks ago George White and fami-
" came to Racine, Wis, from Two Harbors,
Mich. He had just been forced to give. up
his position of superintendent Of the Duluth
& Iron Range, because of a singular Affection,
which bafied the skill OF the doctors of his
ing about three years ago, he experienced an
excruciating pain in the right ear. After the
pain had passed away it left him deaf in the
right ear; the deafness gradually extended to
the left ear, until he became almost totally
deaf and was forced to give up his position.
He came to Racine for o change of climate,
and one day he went to milwaukee to con-
tool an instrument and drew out a black
beetle that measured a fourth of an inch
across. Mr.. Whites hearing was instantly
restored, and . happier man is not to be
found anywhere.
Senator Cochrane, who has just returned to
Canada from q visit to the Mormon settle
ment near Fort Mcleod, Northwest territory.
reports that already 500 people have come
over from Salt Lake to settle in the new
Canadian colony. Mr.. Carr, the chief among
them, and who is married to one of Brigham
Young children, says the population will be
thousands next year. He states that they
to their new home with a full knowledge
Of the laws Of the country and intend to con-
form to them. While they still adhere to
their belief in polygnmy they will make no
attempt to practice 1t. He informed the SEN
ator that his people were well pleased with
the change, and with the prospects before
O credit to the dominion. They however
found it q great sacrifice to be compelled to
abandon forever the tenets of their church,
and will probably make an effort to secure
special legislation from parliament to allow
them to continue tho practice Of polygamy.

Washington BrfefIets.

Capt. Porter, Of the United States secret
service, has two counterfeit silver dollars
dated 1885. A gentleman who Jaw them
says they are boiled until they are softened.
The coin which it is designed to counterfeitis
placed between the blocks which are screwed
tightly in q wise until the coin sinks into the
wood. The blocks are allowed to dry and
harden, forming a perfect mould. The coins
which Capt. Porter has are ofthe same size
weight and color of the genuine, a very dan
gerous counterfeit.
There seems to be q great deal of con-
fusion in the newspapers in regard to the
changes in the army which may be brought
about by the death of Gen. Sheridan. Rank
and command are too entirely different
things. But people generally, outside of
military circles, don't seem to think 30. If
an officer Ia a brigadier general that is his
rank. 1t has been conferred on him by and
with the advice and consent of the senate,
but it does not decide anything about the
assignment of command which may be given
him, The president may put him in com
mand Of q department, or even a division;
indeed, he may, If he chooses, detail him to
command the army. The president may
now designate q ~brigadier general to com
mand the army in the place OF Gen. Sheridan,
but the assignment would necessitate
some other changes. 1t would necessitate
the retirement of three major generals, or
putting them on waiting orders; for no Of
ficer can command another Of higher rank.
The president, however, could order all
these changes ii he so desired, As a matter
OF fact, the president, is comm ander-in-chief
Of the army, and con do as he likes with it.

that he was going to turn to a white

A genuine sensation was created in South
Chicago when it became known that the inn
mense plant of the North Chicago Rolling
Mill company at the mouth Of the Calumet
river was to be shut down for an indefinite
period. Before evening some 1900 men
had called at the company's Office and re-
ceived their pay Between 800 aud 400 men
are still employed about the works on
repairs and cleaning up. The cause of the
unexpected turn of affairs is due directly
to the lack of orders on the
books of the North Chicago company
and indirectly to the present political situa-
ton. Manager Potter said; The suspen-
sion of work is but q temporary one. The
railroads are s%ithholding their orders on
account of the present state OF politics. We
have some August deliveries to make, and
it is quite probable that we will resume the
latter part of this month"
