THE SIEVER SPECULATION.


 The more the plans of the silver men are examined the more dangerous do they ap- pear. Of course the producers of silver in this country don't care what happens as long as they can get big price for their product, but there are some things which those not directly interested in putting up the price of silver will do we'll to consider. One of these is that Europe is overfiowing with silver which cannot be used and which will quickly be sold if there is chance to sell 1t at @ good price. The Roumanian government has just advertised thirty million francs worth of silver in five-lei pieces. The Italian govern ment has on hand 45, 700, 900 francs worth in fine silver bars and old Bourbon piasters which it would be glad to sell at a convenient price. Belgium, too, will presently have for sale about two hundred million francs in Of. pieces, all counted, packed | and ready for spot delivery. Holland, also, would probably be glad to dispose of twenty. five million forins, for the sale of which the minister of finance has re- l ceived discretionary power from the cham 1 bers. And it is believed that Germany bes fore long will be forced to the conclusion that 1t is best to seize the first opportunity to sell at least the greater part of it's thalers, amounting to something like four hundred and fifty million marks. In short, there are millions and millions of dollars in silver this very day on the point of being sold, and hundreds of millions more will flow into the market If the United States should be fool fish enough to try to drive up the price of l silver.
 If this government in order to enrich the silver producers of this country, is willing to buy ali the silver in the world at high price why shouldn't 1t help the farmers by buying their wheat and corn9

WORTH INITIATING.

woEkTA 1M1TATlNG.
 The Appalachian Mountain club has made itself conspicuous in very proper way Through committee it has called g meeting at the Institute of Technology ir Boston next week Saturday of persons pre- sumed to be interested in scheme which has been formed by the club. The scheme pro poses the establishment of a board of trus- tees. who may acquire by gifts from individ- uals or bodies of subscribers lands of natural beauty or historical interest, and open them to the public under proper regulations if the towns and cities in which they lie will give police protection. It is proposed to prepare an act incorporating such board to be pre-. scented to the next legislature, and in the meantime to select two or three parcels of land suitable for the purpose, which. with a fund for their maintenance, may be offered to the trustees upon their incorporation, and to secure subscriptions to an endowment fund with the income of which the trustees may meet their general expenses.
 Among those interested in this plan are Governor Bracket, General Francis A. Walker, pr. O. w. Holmes, Colonel. Higgin. son, Frederick Law Olmstead and others. The idea Is good one. and might we'll find favor in Connecticut. There are in this State many spots whose natural beauty and charm are we'll worth preserving, and there are also places of historic interest which are not properly cared for. It is to be hoped that the movement in Massachusetts will be such success that 1t will be easy to get il initiated in Connecticut.

LAST TOF-NAPOLEON,S GRAND ARMY The oldest Living Relic on Ills Jour-
 ney Through Italy.

kASy n AAA ASASAA As0AIs
 The Italian papers report the recent arri- val at the railro ad station of Baretto, near Reggie, central Italy. of strange looking parsonage that was the object of considera- ble curiosity. He was a tall and noble look. ing old man with a long white beard, who presented to the mayor feuille de route, signed by Baron Maaocohetti, the Italian ambassador at St. Petersburg. inviting the Italian authorities to take good care of the bearer, Michel Linovitcb, of Orenburg, Rus sia.
 In reality this mysterious old man was an Italian named Limo, born at Baretto one I last living relic of the Grande Armee of 1S12. Belonging to family of farmers, | Limo formed part of the consoription of the | kingdom of Italy in 1895, and was enrolled | in the Imperial Guard. With his regiment
 he went through the campaign of 1906 and | 1907 in Prussia, and fought at Jena and at
 Friedland Later on he was sent with his | battalion to Dalmatia, and thence to Spain
 with the division of General Lecchi, where he passed two years of continual fighting. l Wounded in an assault, he retuaned to his 1 native country, where he remained for two years, working on his fathers farm.
 On the outbreak of the terrific storm, which was destined to carry off to Russia 1 the flower of the Franco Italian youth, Ma. poleon called under his victorious eagles his old soldiers. Limo rejoined the service as a sergeant of She Grsnadier Guards, and with the rest of the cis-Alpine army, under the 1 command of Eugene Beauharnais, formed part of the grande armee. Limo fought against the Russians at Smolensk and at Moskova, where he lifted from the field of
 battle the mortally wounded General Plan ponne, After that he entered Moscow with Napoleon, and finally in the bloody battle of the 24th of October, while fighting under the orders of General Pino, he was taken prisoner after having been severely wounded l by the Cossacks at Platow. Transported | with large convoy of French prisoners to 1 Orenburg, he was sent with few of his Ecomrades to distans village situated at the foot of the Caucasus, where, although kind l lv treated by the Russians, he had to suffer
 cruel privations during ten years. Tired at l last of such miserable existence, he asked and obtained permission to join the Russian army as a private soldier. In this capacity l he passed through the campaign of the Cau- l casus in 1899.
 At the close of the war he obtained as the
 reward of his services little piece of ground, which he cultivated. When he was I forty-five years old he married young Pol- l ish girl named Nerewska, who died in 1855. The three sons that he had by this woman also died, leaving the old soldier alone in the world Then Limo returned to Orenburg
 where the people Russianizsd his name into
 Linovich. He lived there in comparative
 comfort for many years. Gifted with an ex
 traordinary energy of mind and body he wa
 still strong enough to catch nostalgia. Whel more than hundred years old the old vete

 Experiments have been made near Copen- hagen with tree-felling by dynamite. Trees of | three feet In diameter were brought down in some twenty to twenty-five minutes, whereas the time occupied by ordinary felling would probably have been ten times as much. The experiments were made for military pur- poses.
 One of the queer bills before the Massa- chusetts legislature is that requiring all pur- chases of furniture, household goods and the like on the instalment plan. to be recorded, as 1 are sales of real estate and mortgages. As theso sales are large the expense of such a measure to the towns from additional clerk hire must be considerable, while the burden levied upon the business would be costly. 1 The new process for making plate glass at Mannheim, Germany, is interesting. Under the old plan 1t is first blown into great cylin- ders, then cut and pressed into sheets. The new process consists in simply rolling 1t be- tween heated hollow metal rolls, which run 1t out into long sheets like tin or sheet iron, taking the liquid glass direct from the melt ing pot. This Is not only gain for the health of the workmen, but it materially re- duces the cost of production and gives the surfaces finish which is said to equal that of cut glass.

INDIAN HALL GAMES.

Tho Ch0ctawS Were the Champions
 NKuffer Game by sioux Squaws.
 From the Globe-Democrat.l
 The greatest ball players among the North American Indians were the Choctaws. The rule of the game as regarded dress was very strict. No player was allowed to wear moc- casins. There was no such thing as ''spik- ing" another player, unless the foul was done by some fellow with extraordinarily long and strong toe nails. The only clothing was the breech cloth around the loins and a bead belt. A tail of white horse hair or quills projected behind like steering appa- ratus. A collar or mane of horse hair was worn around the neck.
 The game embraced the skilful features of lawn tennis and the brute force of football. Catlin says that after seeing two or three games of Indian bali he made it rule never to miss one. He would ride thirty miles any ,- the sport. The game was usually caa.ss nine o'clock in the morning, and from tns. till sundown the contest was series of exciting and ludicrous scenes without any intermission. It was nothing unusual for from six hundred to one thou sand Choctaw youths to engage in a game

ran at last became homesick, after seventy. eight years of exile. He resolved at all haz- ards 60 return to his native land and there pass the remainder of his eventful career. Through the influence of the Italian ambas. sador at St. Petersburg he was sent home to Italy at the expense of the Italian govern ment. Limo is now in an asylum at Reggio. where he is cared for with particular stten- tion. As he was born in 1785, he is now one hundred and five years old, the glorious sur vivor of a hundred battles and probably the last of the heroes who fought at Jena, F.ied- land and Boredino.
