A NARROW ESCAPE.

Col. w. X. Nelson of Brooklyn came
home one evening feeling a peculiar
tightness in the chest. Before retiring
he tried to draw a long breath but found
1t almost impossible. He suffered four
days from pneumonia, and the doctors
gave him up. DIR. Acker's English Rem
edy fol Consumption saved him and he is
we'll today.

Belmont chronicle. [volume] (St. Clairsville, Ohio) 1855-1973, 1889-02-14

WEST VIRGINIA is on the edge of rev.
olutiOn; indeed, the doings of its Legis-
lature last week were revolutionary and
subversive of government. The situa-
ton is reproach to the State, and hurt
full to its future.
The Constitution requires the Speaker
of the House to open and state the vote
for State officers in the presence of both
branches, and that the Joint Assembly
shall declare the result. Knowing that
a compliance with the requirements of
the Constitution would result in seating
a Republican Governor, the Democratic
majority adopted resolution to stop the
reading the returns at point which in
dicated the election of a Democrat.

WHEN THEY ARE WELL OFF.

WHEN THEY ARE WELL OFF.
From the Pittsburgh Dispatch.
. 1t is generally asserted, and in some
cases on what seems to be pretty good
authority, that Senator Allison declines
a Cabinet position because he prefers to
keep himself in the Senate as factor in
future Presidential contests. 1t is also
alleged that Senator Sherman takes a
similar view. Whereupon the NeU York
Sun warns them, tersely but emphatical-
ly, that "To be professional candidate
for the Presidency is to throw away all
reasonable hope of being elected Presi-
dent"
This is true enough; but it does not
by any means prove that Allison is not
smart, and Sherman also, if he has had
the choice, in preferring to stay in the
Senate rather than go in the Cabinet
Either one of them can exert more power
in the Senate than he could in the Cabi-
net, and-in proportion to the worry and
friction-than he could in the Presiden-
tial chair. Sherman was a remarkably
successful Cabinet officer, but he holds a
stronger position to-day than he did as
Secretary of the Treasury, and far more
comfortable one than he would have had
if his long-cherished ambition had been
gratitied last year. Allison can hold his
Senatorial seat indefinitely. If his Pres
idential hopes are fulfilled, he will, after
a term in the Presidential chair, be re-
tired from public life. The comfort and
power of really able Senator is enhanc-
ed rather than diminished by the large
element of the membership who repre-
sent big bank accounts and let money
talk for them.
1t is a good thing for man to know
when he is well off; and, though Sena-
tors Allison and Sherman do not seem to
be fully posted on that point, they are
likely to remain in their very comforta-
BILE seats in the Senate, and exert power
full influence on public affairs which they
hold there.

ly sorry for her,-while listening to her
story my face was wet with tears almost
for the first time since boyhood, and
hoping to give her some pleasure and to
show her how sincerely | esteemed her
and how deeply sympathized with her,
| offered her my photograph, as the on
ly mementO | could leave with her. To
my great surprise she sadly but firmly
declined it, and said: "Many years ago
| had photograph of little child that
l had lost. 1t was the one in existence,
and could not get another. The po-
lice made search one night in my
house, and took away all my letters and
photographs. l told them that this par
ticular picture was the only portrait l
had of my dead boy. The gendarme Of
ficer who conducted the search promised
me upon his word and honor that it
should be returned to me, but | never
saw it again. l made vow then that
it should not be possible for the Russian
Government to hurt me so a second
time, and from that day to this 1 have
never had photograph in my possess
iOn."

WILL OF THADDEUs STEVENS.

WILL OF 1HADDEUSS1 SIZE EMS.
Philadelphia Bulletin.
Edward Mcpherson, who is likely to be
the Clerk of the next House, was one of
the closest friends of Thaddeus Stevens,
and ever since his death has been straight
ening up his estate. Mr.. Stevens was MT
wealthy, and could only guess at the
amount Of his property when he made
his will; and the uncertainty of his guess
has practically kept the matter in the
hands of the lawyers ever since. After
making some few small bequests, he in
tended to give the bulk of his property to
the Orphan Asylum at Lancaster, and, in
order to have the bequest of some value
if given at all, he provided that the estate
must reach $4,000 to entitle the Asylum
to receive the amount. If it were under
$4,000, the whole estate went to his rela-
tiveS. 1t would seem easy enough, even
with the varying values of country real
estate, to decide its amount, but, curious
ly, while it did not amount to $4,000
when he died it amounted to considerably
more before the administrator was ready
to file his account. Times grew better in
that short meanwhile; the administrator
was better business man than the Old
COmmOner, and the estate grew more
valuable the more the expert Strengthened
it out. Some of Mr.. Stevens investments
were in iron property, which could not be
sold until year or two ago, and the ac-
counting has only lately been made. The
estate, however, is over $4,000, and the
two claimants will undoubtedly fight for
it. The relatives say that it wasn't worth
$4,000 at the time when the will was
made, while the Orphan Asylum attorneys
say that it was when settled up. The
judges viii have to decide, and in the
meantime the question is open for gener-
al debate

NATIONAL DEBTS.

The recent publication of the monthly
statement of the public debt of the Uni
ted States, makes a comparison of the
debts of the nations of the world inter
esting and timely.
Secretary Fairchild reports the in
debtedness of Uncle Sam, less cash on
hand, as $1,121, ,S45,973. This is not an
excessive debt, when it is compared
with what other nations owe, and when
the cost of the terribly expensive war
which closed only quarter of century
ago is taken into consideration.
Six European nations, only one of
which equals the United States in popu-
lation, are burdened with national
blessings" of greater magnitude than
the debt of the United States.
The debt of France, thanks to the war
indemnity assessed by Germany, aggre-
gates S6,200,0 100000, the interest and
charges of which amount to S267, ,200,-
900 annually.
Russia (the only European country
whose population exceeds that of the
United States) has debt of S3,605, ,600,-
900, but its interest charges are much
larger in proportion than Frances,
amounting to $207, 100000 per year.
The debt of the Unitsd Kingdom of
Great Britain and Ireland comes third
in size. 1t is S3,565, 100000.
Italy, with a population Of but 90
100000, owes $2,226, 100000. Austrias
debt is $1,857, ,600,Q0 exclusive of Hun
gary, which has debt of its own of
$685., 100000; and Spain comes next.
with 81 Dos, 100000 on the wrong side
sheet.
The debt of the German Empire,
which is very young confederation, is
but $105, 100000. Many of the States of
the Empire exceed that amount, howey-
er, that of Prussia being 1862, 100000; |
Bavaria, S358,000,0O0; and Saxony,
OF the smaller European States, Swe- |
den owes S69,O00,000; Norway, $30,200,-
300; Denmark, $54,800,000; the Neither
lands, 1852, ,000,000; Belgium, 1854, ,200,-
300; Portugal, 1864, 100000; Servia, S48,-
100000; Roumania, S145,SO0,000; and
Greece, $78,6000O0.
Turkey, with her expensive method |
Of government, has debt of only S524,-
100000, the amount being kept down
more by the unwillingness of capitalists
to lend than by lack of a wish to bor-
row.
Switzerland has the smallest debt, that
'epublic owing only S6,400,QO0.
