4 Key West special of January 27th says: During the last ten days Ha- vana has been in perfect turmoil, and on the verge of mob violence. The trouble is caused by the interruptions acts of Captain General Marin and his officials; although 4arin has been in office but three months, his admins tration is reekiug with crimes of every description. The government tax Is short $50,000, the local board of alder men have gobbled S4OOOO, the Carde- mas tax office is short S1O,000, and every office of tFust is honeycombed with fraud. Two weeks ago indig- nant citizens made vain appeals to Marln for protection. A mass meet ing was held, but Marin ordered armed guards about the gathering and pre- vented the speakers from addressing the people. El Progreso, mercantile newspaper, denounced Marin's act and yesterday the paper was sup pressed by order of the despot. When Marin learned that several merchants were sending cablegrams of protest to the home government he placed an armed guard about the cable office On Sunday there were twelve mur- ders, one suicide, eight highway rob berries and four stabblng affrays in Havana and Cardenas. A special from Havana last night said that the situa- ton was becoming more alarming every moment.

The great steel gun which was cast at the Pittsburg Steel Casting Com pany's works, Plttsburg, Pa, on the 11th inst, was taken from the mold on the 18th inst. and found to be perfect. The casting is pronounced complete success by Superintendent Hainsworth and officers of the United States navy, who made a close inspection and ap- piled such tests as were possible in its present stage. When the gun is bored It will be shipped to Washing ton, where it will be rihed and finished at the Navy Yard. From Washing ton it will be taken to Annapolis, where it will be loaded with a heavy charge of gunpowder, and a shot weighing not less than one hundred pounds. This will be fired, and, II the gun stands it, ten discharges will be made. As soon as the gun is cool enough, experts will examine it with microscoplcal minuteness. Should it show no weakness from the test. it will be received by the government.

Enernnous Appetltes.

4 trained pugllIst's appetite is some thing to appal the heart of an average boarding house keeper. Perfect phys ical condition seems inseperable in them from perpetual hunger and their desire for meat and drink, like the love of Aamlet's father. seems to grow by what it feeds on.
 Talk about eating" said Denny Costigan, .'you ought to see Sullivan eat wuen ne traInlng, II you want to know just what an able-bodied man can do with a square meal. When he was training for his fight with Domi- nick McCaffrey in Philadelphia 1 went over with friend to see him one day and we stayed for dinner. The big fellow had hls meal before us and had about finished his dinner when ours was brought to the table. They brought us a big pan on which were half dozen chickens roasted. John L. looked at them a minute and then he said: Pass them to me- We showed the pan down his way, and l hope I may never see the back ef my neck if he didn't eat three of them on top of what he already had. Prof. Nixey began joking the big fellow about losing his appetite, when he reached over aad gave Nizey play ful tap with his right which knocked him through the door and left a black mark on him for week."

A New snOw Flow.

All accounts say thai the snow in
 Dakota is of unprecedef ted depth, and
 that in many instan :ess it has been
 found necessary to abandon passen-
 ger as well as freight trains. In past winters the railroads have experienced
 great difficulty Tn clearing their tracks,
 the old-fashioned wedge like snow
 blows being unequal to the task of cutting passage-way through. When the snow is mixed with sand it im- pacts so firmly that nothing but an ax or pick can move. 1hls forced the railroads to put on large forces of men, which proved expensive both Tn time and money. It was a common tbing fer road to be owed under for a week or ten daysx lime. This led the inventors to orimenting, and the result is the rotary steam snow shovel, which is said to accomplish the work more satisfactorily than any oth- CT invention heretofore tried. It has no resemblance to the old snow blow which was placed in front of one or more engines and forcea through the snow. The rotary shovel cuts its way through the snow and ice and clears the track without the a.d of an army of men with shovels. The keen blade or ice-cutter in front, il its rapid rev olutions, cuts the ice or snow into small particles which are taken up by iron buckets or shovels and thrown with such force from he top of the shovel car as to give the road no more trouble. The power is obtained from an engine n the snow car, behind which is the locomotive or pusher.
 A dispatch states ths t the Northern Pacific had, with the rotary snow shovel, cleared over 200 miles of track in Dakota of snow ave aging 15 feet deep. This work hal been accom- plished in sixteen hour, an unparal- leled achievement.

The Washington correspondent of the Phoenix Arizonian, leading Dem ocratic paper of the territory writes as follows concerning recent plesiden- tial reception:
 "The "scribes" who occupy the press galleries of the capitei, were the reel pients of an invitation rom the White House to attend all the regular recep- tions given by the PrI dent and Mrs. Cleveland during tEe Season, t6giu- ming January 18th and ending Febru- ary 14th. The first reception, last evening was given to the "Diplomatic corps, and ye correspondent broke an important engagement to attend it. Going early, and obtaining an eligi ble position from which to observe and not to be observed; 1 want to state in a few words the facts. The women were half naked and many of the men two-thIrds drunk. The servlces of forty policemen are required and their work differs little from the work per formed by the police officers in keep ing things in order in crowded cir GUS. I would in all sincerity direct the attention of Anthony ComStock to the indecencies of the exhibition of person, so common at these society receptions, besides which, the indecent pictures which he seeks to repress, pale into insignifcence, and If MT. Berg, who Is troubled by cruel treat ment to animals, can lose sight of birds and dogs long enough to think of a man, he will at once attempt some reform which will prevent the cruel ties inflicted upon these police officers who in rain, snow and wind are com pelled to keep gate, and stand watch and ward for these brainless cOnVen- tional gatherings.

mr Puilt1ers Income.
TWasbington Canieal


 l am told that the circulation of the Daily New York World has decreased 10000 since the November election. This would be runous to many pa pers, but if 1t is not followed by a cor responding falling of in advertising it will not make much difference to, Mr. Pulitzer, as the profit on circulation is very small. Mir. Pulitzer's income Is pat by those who know him at S1 ,0O0,- 000- -S80O,0O0 from the World ,S1O0,0O0 from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, and S1OO,0O0 from his real estate and gov ernment bonds. This will not be be- lieved by many persons, but there is nothing improbable about it. The World brings an enormous revenue. The readirg notices in1tho Sunday World sometimes amoeAt to S2,50G for a slngle issue. Mr. Pulitzer has one of the ablest business managers in the country, and pays him salary of considerable more than s1OOOO year. He speaks the truth when he says that he pays the largest salaries that are paid to any newspaper manager in America. He pays Mr. Coekerill $12,000 a year, and there are a good many men in his office who get mOr6 than $5,OO0 a year each.

Pastors Extraordlnary Salaries.
From the Troy Times.l


 The rich churches pay extraordin- ary salaries. The Broadway Taber- nacle, for instance, has advanced it's pastor, W. NJ. Taylor, until he now re- eeives $15,O6O year. He gets, in fact, more Tn a month than most coun- try preachers during the whole year. Trinity began paylng Rector Dix S12,000, but when ho married, an ele- gant house was built for his use, and it is sad that his salary is now S2e.00O, John Hall received Sl0,OO0 at first, but now has S12,OOO and a house. He could have more by asking for 1t, for his congregation ih ludes s5O,0O0,O00. John R. Paxton, whc breaches to the Flaglers and al .saaei Sage and the GouIds, togetbr with other opd- lent men, has a salary of $12,OG0 Grace and St. Thomas are both rich enough to pay their rectors S1O,0OO. Grace has a beautiful rectory, and Morgan, who breaches in St. Thomas, is a rich man, independent of hls sal- ary. McArthur, the Baptist, IS said to be equally well paid, and two of his denomlnation (Bridgeman and Armi- tage) also have each $1O,OOO, while other city pastors receive from $6OOO down to one-half that sum. Judson, who is laboring so ardently at the Be- rean Church.. is poorly paid, but he has the satisfaction of doing noble work. While some clergymen are thus high ly paid there Is a large number of the profession hanging round the church es and glad to get chance to supply pulpit. Like all ether professions, the clergy drift to the city in search of employment and try for any opening in benevolent societies, or even city mission labor, which is the poorest paid clerical service, and yet there is a pressure for every vacancy.

A Vv1isning Craze Among the Yenng Ladlie,
 of New York.

It is said that many young ladies in New York are frst-elass whistlers, having acquired the craze from the performances of Alice Shaw, the pro tessional. A professor of music, talk ing of the matter, said: But the few est number can whistle with anything like success. They can carry an air through very well, but the shading and the piceolo-like melody a' absent. It is sometimes very amusing Io see a young lady pucker her ruby lips and try to whistle some popalar air to her own accompaniment on the piano. The accompaniment is admirable, but the whistle IS often mar-ed by glal ing deficiencies in the art .oe E.. 2 sound through the l:pshse6oae- mss can whistle with ease, and prodacs notes of a clear crystal quality, while others who are good musicians, too, can scarcely whistle a common tune. The same can be said of women. Some years ago it was rars thing to hear a young lady whistiing, but now near ly every household has young daugh- ter that goes about the house trying dolce far niente way to initiate the birds. 1 remember the tune when it was considered very unrefned for a young lady to whistle, and the mother always chided her by repeating the very trite lines about a whistling wo- man and a growing hen never coming to a good end. All that is changed now, mean among social circles in the large cities, and the mother and father are just as proudof their daugh- ters' whistling accomplishments as they used to be of theif skill as musi- clans. The mandolin, guitar and ban jo for the present are ielegated to the back stairs of unpopllarity to make room for the new craR.

Business failures arS always in pro- portion to the string,ney of money. The history of the pat one hundred years in the United States proves that conclusively. The Secretary of the Treasury should not be allowed the power to increase r decrease the amount of money Tn circulation ac- cording to his whim. It is a serious matter, affecting every man financial ly, in the country. The money vol ume should be large enough to prop eriy enable men successfully to tran sact the business of the country, and then it should be kept m circulation at Q constant volume per capita of not less than $4O-we now have only S25 per capita. In young and growing nation like tbe United States, such record of failures is seandilous and might be almost wholly avoided if Congress would look after the interest of the people and give Us not only free and unlimited coinage, but money enough per capita to enable men to do business safely.

sixty Tens of Newspapers sraIca.

There are ninety-fve newspapers and periodicals published within the city limits of Baltimore, which go through the ,postqfica as secopd-elass matter. There have also been a mum Der of papers which have been pub lisbed at different times, but have ceased to exist. They are not counted among the ninety-fve which are now actually in existence. The total weight of the newspaper matter which went through the postofice during the year 1886, was nearly 100000 pounds. For the quarter ended with January, the weight of newspaper matter was nearly 1G0,000 pounds in excess of the corresponding quarter of last year. These figures are compiled from stat lstics kept by Postmaster Brown Baltimore Sun.
