ONE OF cLAY's PETS.
A nahy's Adventure. with the Gre


 Baby's Adventures with the Great
 Kentucky Statesman.
 One Of the brightest Of the new United States Senators is Mir. Nathan Fellows Dixon. Of Rhode Island, bright-eyed, darl-faced Republican fofty-three years of ago. He comes from line of statesmen. His grand father was in the Senate when John Tyler was President. and his father brought him hero as . three-year-old baby during his first Congressional term in 1s49 and 50. Senator Dixon stopped with his father at this time at tho Ma tional Hotel, and young as he was he is able to remember some of tho incidents of this part of his life Henry Clay was stopping at the same hotel and he was very fond of children. Senator Dixon says he distinctly remembers ono day going down the steps and meeting Henry Clay coming up. Tho great Ken tuckian grasped tho Rhode Island baby by the arms and lifted him up 10 his face. Little Dixon yelled out:
 'Let mo go."
 Mir. Clay, however, putting his arms around tho boy and holding him to his breast, said: T cant do that because I want to kiss you, and wonder if you know who am. :"
 ''Yos, know" said the boy, 'lstsiit ! want to go.
 Well, who am Ig'' said Clay.
 "0hlp said young Dixon, lyon arc Mister Harry Clay. Now let mo go.
 With this the great statesman kissed the boy gave hearty laugh with his big mouth and put him down.
 From this time on Baby Dixon and Senator Clay continued their acquaint- ancc, and Baby Dixon often came into Senator Clay's room and was mado much of by the Senator. Ono day, however, he was present when Henry Clay had some importantc callers, He h;.d no time to talk to Baby Dixon and he took him from his knee, placed him upon his feet, and said: "Now. Natey. rundown stairs to your mamma"
 The future Senator was rather indig- nant al this treatment and he slammed the door heas.ily as he stamped out Senator Clay told tho story q number of times afterwar1. He said he could hear little Nathan's footsteps IS he went down the stairs. At first his tread was loud and hoistcrous. As he went toward tho bottom it grew fainter, and at last the noise stopped at tho foot of the stairs A moment later ho heard the little feet pattering back again and a gentle knock was made upon the door Henry Clay called oGt;
 Come in, sir!''
 The door opened and little Nathan Dixon's pretty faco looked in and his cherry lips voiced forth tho words
 My love to you, Mr. Clay Y
 With that he turned and ran down the stairs to his mother. He had evil dently appreciated that his action in slamning the door and leaving tho room was ungentlemanly, and though only boy of three years he had Fepent- ed before he had reached tho foot of tho stairs and hurried back to make his baby apology.
 Senator Dixon told his story in con versation the other day, and he ought not to object to seeing it in print as it is certainly complimentary to him. IT. c. Carpenter, in Wide Awake.

A GREAT mistake perhaps was made when Dr. Sherman named his great remedy Prick ly Ash BIrTERs; but it is presumed that at that time all remedies for the blood, etc, 1, were called Bitters. Had he called itPriek- ly Ash s'Regulator," 'Curative,n or almost anything but Buters, it undoubtedly would have superseded all sther preparations or similar character.

peoples and those who desire to build up the
American book business. The provisions of
the measure are very broad and liberal The
foreign author il permitted to take copyright
in three cases Americans are: 1. When the
nation of the foreigner permits copyright to
American citizens on substantially the same
basis as its own citizens. 2. When the nation
Of the foreigner gives to American citizens
copyright privileges similar to those provided
for in this bill. 3. When the nation of the for
eigner il party to an international agreement
providing for reciprocity in copyright, by the
terms of which agreement the United States
can become a party thereto at its pleasure.

The financial system of the republic il nm
dergoing rigid scrutiny. At the capital the
Secretary Of the Treasury makes a full review
Of the national finances. pointing out the inc
lasticity of the currency, but recommending no
specific remedy tn efor. In Congress bills to
accomplish the free coinage Of silver are intro
duced. The Farmers Alliance in session at
Ocala, Florida, likewise give the question prime
attention The journals of the country are all
discussing finance. The people evidently deem
the money question one of paramount interest
and importance. There is no doubt that Secre-
tary Window is right when he says: '.In my
Judgment the gravest defect in our present
financial system is its lack of elasticity. The
demand for money in this country is so irreg-
ular than an amount of circulation which will
be ample during ten months of the year will
frequently prove SO deficient during the other
two months as TO cause stringency and COM
mercial disaster" He points out that the crop
movement in August and September causes an
nually a dangerous absorption of money posi-
bly, cntailing heavy losses in the agricultural as
well as other business interests. Nearly all the
great commercial crises in our history have oc-
CURED in those months. The Secretary re-
marks. in concluding this paragraph of his re-
port and before considering the surplus, that
unless some provision be made to meet such
contingencies in the future, like disasters may
be confidently expected. 1t is to be regretted
that he makes no positive suggestion of a
remedy, merely limiting at one by pointing out
that government bonds are now too high to
render the issue Of currency profitable. This
appears to suggest a cheaper bond convertible
into currency, which it was said few weeks
ago the Secretary would recommend specif-
cally fixing the rate at two per cent
