Gov. Gordon of Georgia is impolitic pos
siby, but he is honest and shows business
sense in coming out squarely against the
sub treasury plan of the Farmers Alliance.
The alliance has many possibilities for be-
coming a powerful organization if prudent
ly managed, but it lacks cohesion on its
present platform, and it could not do other
wise than fail disastrOusly fit were subject
cd to any great test Of strength. A chain is
only as strong as its weakest link, and the
sub treasury link in the alliance chain is
particularly weak. Some of the State ALI
ances, recognizing this fact, have rejected
the sub treasury feature altogether, and 9TH
ers have declined to indors. t. Washington

A big blacksnake was found eoiled up
Friday in the swinging cradle in which Mr..
and Mrs. John D. Frederick's baby was
sleeping at their mountain cottage near Pen
Mar. The baby was placed in the swinging
cradle by the nurse, who left it for time.
When she returned she found a blacksnake
coiled upat the baby feet. A nursing bottle
from which the snake had taken all the milk
was lying between the serpent and the baby.
The girls screams aroused the household and
frightened the snake, which tried to get
away, but was killed by Mr.. Fredericks.
The baby was not injured.

If the poor men of this country choose to
select Republican and high tariff congres-
sional majority next November no body has a
right to complain. No matter who may pay
State and municipal taxes, it is plain that
poor men pay ninety-nine hundredths oil the
national tax, because there are ninety-nine
poor men to every rich one, and, owing to
physical causes, every poor man must con-
sumo as much salt and the other hecessaries
of life as a rich one, and it is upon just such
articles that the national tax is laid By the
tariff. This is a free country, and if poor
man may choose to vote to tax himself and
his poor neighbor fifty per cent. extra on al
most everything he has to buy, it is his own
lookout and no body else has right to OBJ
ject. If poor man can stand such a tax
certainly a rich man can.-Aleraadria Ga

Alced 1u an Ear-Trrmpet.

Some years ago well-known Presby-
terian divine was spending his summer
vacation with his family in the Adiron-
dacks. One Sunday he accepted an in
yitaiion to preach in one Of the simple
mee,ing-houses of that region. In the
congregation was a man who apparently
was very deaf, for he came to the church
armed and equipped with an immense
brass ear-trumpet, aud as soon as the SER
mon began went forward and took his
seat well up on the pulpit stairs. The
clergyman's little daughter was among
the auditors. She had never seen an ear
trumpet, and the spectacle Of the form on
the pulpit stairs steadily holding that in
strument to his head filed her with awe
and wonder On her way home from
church the first thing she said to her ia
ther when they were alone was; Papa,
was that an archangel by you?

The farmers aud laborers' union at Sc
dalia, Mo, have declared against the sub
treasury scheme. In doing so they have fol-
lowed the common sense example Of some
ofthe farmers alliances in Virginia. Should
such a scheme ever be adopted, the chief suf-
ferers would be the farmers. The only pos
sibe help the farmers can receive from na-
tiona legislation would be the removal OF
the tariff tax on every thing they have to
buy, and the enlargement Of the foreign
markets for their surplus product.

DIR. Z. ;. TRACY. the Registrar of
Records of the Health Department.
has submitted to the Board Of Health
report on the tenement-house NOR
tality of 1855, supplementary to a re-
port made by him on the same subject
in June, 1880, saws the New York
Medical Record. The Doctor says
that since the beginning of 1880 all
tenement houses have been constructed
under the supervision of the Health
Department, and the construction OF
rear tenements has not been per-
mitted. The records show these
things: l. The death-rate was lower
during 1888 in houses standing singly
on lot than where there were both
front and rear houses. ,. The death
rate in houses built since 1883 was
lower than in houses built before that
time. 3. The death-rate was remarka-
bly, lower in houses built since 1885, for
both adults and children.

SUCH caution as this seems hardly
necessary to any person in the full
possession of his faculties, yet it is as
tonishing how many people there are
including good business men, who at
tach their signatures to papers or
documents whose contents might have
a serious bearing upon themselves or
their affairs, with scarcely a glance at
their contents. Carelessness in failing
to acquaint themselves with the con
tents of paper before signing it has
worked incalculable harm to thousands
of well-intentioned people. Then read
all papers carefully before you sign
them, particularly those that express
or imply anything in the nature of a
contract or legal obligation.

JOSEPH WALKER, a New York i'm
porter, has sued the United States
Government for 70 cents. In October
of last year the plaintiff imported some
goods, which were placed in a bonded
warehouse and subsequently carted
from there to the appraisers stores.
The carriage amounted to 70 cents,
which amount the Government asked
the plaintiff to pay. He demurred
but finally paid the amount under pro-
test, and now brings suit to recover it.

IT appears that Parnell was not at
all to blame for the restitution Of his
mother He assisted her in every way.
She had fine estate here which would
have amply supported her. But she
has a mania for specializing. She put
all her money in Wall street, only to
lose it. A large sum of money donated
by Americans she admits was used up
in unsuccessful stock speculation 1t is
q pity that she came to want, but the
son is not to be condemned. He has
been kind and good to her always.

ward the unequal battle on the roadside
and then comes our fusilade. Shot after
shot of our. revolvers told their tale by
the increasing heap OF lesnoy volks that
lay dead OF dying around the hunters
and their wrecked conveyance.
Instantly the tide of battle is turned
and the remaining wolves take to their
heels and scamper off. It was a s'close
calf for those three sportsmen. Tho
entire battle did not occupy ten minutes.
Had we not turned up just in the nick of
time all three Of them would have shared
the fate of their horses before their pick
ing up sleigh would have had time to
come up. While such hunting scenes are
not at all infrequent it rarely happens
that a hunter is killed. Wolves are pro-
verbally cowardly and il they are struck
across their sensitive nose they are eyer
rendered insensible or skulk painfully
toward the forest. In a few moments
after the last of our fur-coated com
oanions had taken, his departure the
second sleigh came along and once nor
our horses heads were turned toward
Archangelgk. We met many hunting
parties, but they were more fortunate,
