WAIT NO LONGER.

The silver men in Congress seem
to be getting the question consider
ably mixed up, or rather allowing the
gold men to mix it up for them. New
bills are being introduced at a great
rate, and it appears to be impossible
for Congress to agree upon any one
of ,hem and settle down to. work. 1t
is very evident that the Secretary of
the Treasury proposes to dictate to
Congress what kind of a measure
shall be adopted. X What we
want is free coinage; who gives 1T to
us is a matter Of secondarY Import
ance. Leave the party issue out Of
the silver question and there will be
no trouble in handing to Mr.. Harri-
son n free coinage measure for his
signature next week. We doubt if
Harrison would dare veto such bill.

cation of silver has hurt them. and

to bring about free coinage. From
the States of Kansas and Nebraska
petitions have beeu sent to Congress
asking for free coinage. The Farm
ers' Alliance, power in itself, de-
mands free coinage; the Pacific Coast
and the South want it, and in vetoing
such a measure Harrison would sign
his death warrant politically. Should
he veto it we would at least know
where we stand, which would be
more than anybody knows now. In
the event of veto there would, still
be some hope left. 1t is claimed that
three-fonrths Of the members are in
favor Of free coinage. 1t takes but

How Former Pupil Got Even with Ex-

Tho late eX-Prosident Woolsey, of

There President Woolsey erected

nent business man and a judge of Now
Haven, won't to live in tho vicinity. Mr..
Blaclman was q graduate of Yale, but
President Woolsoy did not recognize
him on tho street. He attributed this
neglect to, tho fact that tho president
did not like his poll Uics, He waited
many years to get 'even" with tho
president, and it occurred when tho lGto
Governor James e. English was chair
man of the board of selcctmcn. A num-
Der Of Yalo students wanted to DO mado

officials to hear tho case Of all tho STU

HOW Glover French Swindlers Did Up ~
Patient of pasteur.
An honest provincial, suffering like
most of his tribo from ignorance Of
metropolitan ways that are dark" rs
well as from dog bite, has been lately
victimized by what may be called the
"Pasteur trick" According to NJ.
Dangins account, he had just arrived
from Mouths with his bitten arm in a
sling and had asked tho way to tho
Pastcur Institute from policeman.
Tho guardian of tho public peace told
him to tako certain tram, and hardly
had III. Dangin seated himself on the
top Of tho vehicle when he was ac-
costcd by glib young man, who, by q
strange coincidence, also had his arm in
sling, and said that he was going to
DO injected with prophylactic against
hydrophobia at tho philanthropic M.
Pastcur's establishment The new
conner directed tho provincial to a
small hotel, and as it was too late to go
to tho Pastour Institute he promised to
call for M. Dangin on the morrow. This
no did, panied by companion
who had likewise been bitten by mad
dog, who descanted volubly and Wig
orously on tho dangers which the three
of thcm were mourning. 1--WE may all
be stark, staring, raving mad in few
weeks" he said. 'if M. Pastcur's in
lection does not work" In tho mean
time the new conner added that he had a
thousand francs in bank notes which no
did not care to carry with him, there
being so many bad characters about.
Upon this Peraud, tho man who had
first accostod M. DanGin, pulled out q
purse full Of apparent bank notes and
offered to take charge of the money Of
the timid person. Fears now smote tho
mind Of Nj. Dangin-the gentleman
from tho countrywide also asked the
obliging Peraud to look after his
money request with which that in
dividual complied readily. All three
then proceeded to tho Pasteur Institute.
NJ. Dangin, of course, entered first, the
other two affecting a slight delay in
their movements, and Peraud stating
finally that ho would wait for awhile in
cafe. The two rascals then decamped
with NJ. Dangin's money, but they were
captured-although the coin was not

Water Going to Waste.

Thore' is now sufficient water run
ming into the Sink Of the Humboldt
to irrigate the whole Humboldt Valley
for several Seasons if it could be
stored for that purpose. When the
water once reaches the sink it is USE
less for all purposes unless it be to
temper the atmosphere in the vicinity
Of the lake and cause cloudbursts in
the mountains as 1t is noticed that no
cloud. bursts occur along the Hum
boldt ranges except when there is
considerable water in the. lake.
1t has been remarked that Hum
boldt Lake is at the wrong end Of the
stroam as there arc no lands below
The lake on which the water could be
utilized, the flats being saline or aka
line and utterly destitute of vegeta-
tion. TO remedy this defect it has
boon proposed to cons uct immense
reservoirs up tho Humboldt in which
to store water for irrigating purposes.
ADo rallrOau company, III Is SO. report
al, is negotiating with an English
syndicate for tho salo of the COM
pany's lands along tho Humboldt
with the understanding that two
millions or more dollars should be ex-
pended in building storage reservoirs
and irrigatiug canals. Should this
sale DO consummated and artificial
lakes made along the river in which
the water now going to waste could
bo saved, tho Humboldt Valley may
be transformed in few years from a
augobrush plain into rich agricul-
tural region producing all tho cereals,

SECRETARY PRoCroR.s SPEECH.


Work Of the United Christian Commission
Among Soldiers and Sailors Commended.
Secretary Proctor presided at public meet
ing held yesterday afternoon at Foundry N. z.
Church under the auspices Of the United Chris
tan Commission. The meeting was in the in
terest Of the moral welfare Of the army and
navy. After prayer by Rev. DR.. Bartlett the
Secretary Of War in the course Of brief
speech spoke Of the work done by the Chris
tian commission during the war and said it
was striving to disseminate among the soldiers
and sailors influences of wholesome and help
full nature. The higher the moral qualities of
soldier, the Secretary said, the better soldier
he will make.
He then introduced Chaplain Nave of the
army, who spoke of the active interest now
manifested by the churches in the moral and
reigious condition of the soldiers and sailors
Inc soldier was now better fed and better
clothed than formerly, he said, and this had n
great deal to do with his self-respect Among
the improvements and reforms of late date the
post trader had lost his grip, and as a result
the drink question had been turned over to the
authorities Of the post. Inspections and dress
parades on Sunday had been abandoned and are
now held on week days. Chaplain Nave then
spoke OF the necessity for religious teachers at
the military posts, and argued that if we'll
favored communities like Washington had
need OF churches and ministers of the Cos
pei, certainly they were n necessity at mill
tary stations. Promotions, he said, should be
made with reference to the moral qualities Of
the men. chapels should be erected, books fur
nished and gymnasiums and other means of
amusement provided for the soldiers. All these
things, he insisted, could be accomplished il
the public would demand it.
Rev. DIR. Newman of the Congregational
Church, Representative b. NJ. CutcheOn and
others made addresses in the same line.

The Choral Society and Oratorios,

The communication signed tive" in Sat
urday nights SrAR was called to the attention
of DIR. Ernest F. King, one Of the vice presi-
dents Of the Choral Society. this morning. DIR.
King said that the Choral Society would be glad
to give one oratoriO each year if proper facili-
ties could be had and proper support assured.
Lincoln Hall is not suitable for such works has
not a seating capacity suffcien. to allow low
price of admission and is without an organ
which forms an important part in al! oratorio
Accomplishments. The organ support in the
grand chOruses Of ''The Messiah" would have
made the coneer. last Wednesday much more
effective. The Messiah can be produced at
less expense than any other oratorio. and vet
the performance last Wednesday cost in the
neighbOrhoOd of 81 200. The society certainly
did its part, but the effort was evidently not
appreciated by the public. for the receipts fell
short of the expenses by about FOO. The So
ciety hopes to make up this deficiency at the
remaining concerts which will be Of unusual
interest.
