money in circulation in which he says:
In response to many inquiries from
different sections of the country as to
the amount of various kinds Of money
in circulation in the United States at
the present time and in former years,
tables, showing the, facts for each year
since 1860, have been prepared undrr
my instruction and are published for
the information of the people of the
United States" The table IS embodied
in pamphlet showing the amount of
money per capita w.lich formed the cur
rency OF the country and the amount
of circulation per capita for each year
from 1860 to 1891 inclusive. The small.
est amount under each head was in
1862, being Sl096 and Sl023 respective
". The LARGEST amount Of currency
per capita was in 1888 being S34. 80
when the circulation was S22 50. The
largest circulation per capita IS credited
to the present year, being S23 45, while
the amount of currency is $32.S3, the
proportions for the years 1888 and 1891
being reversed.

4 XOBLE SACRIFICE

The third day after the events record
ed in the last chapter, trim, schooner
rigged yacht Of about scventy-fve tons
burden. passed ont by Moro castle, that
grim and iorbidding pile Of masonry
which guards the entrance to the har-
Dor of Havana.
Upon the quarterback Of the little
craft paced her owner, Castro Easquez,
whilo ct her wheel stood q weather
beaten son Of Neptune, Cuban coast
pilot.
The crew Of the vessel, however, bore
little resemblance to the conventional
sailor, save perhaps in their costumes,
and the manner ia which they per-
formed their work, if seen by protes-
sional mariners, would have caused the
latter to dcaounce them as ''land-lub-
bers."
Nor would the seamcn have been
far sstray in their estimate, that is,
barring the "lubber" part, for not one
of the company on board, except the
owner and pilot, had ever been out OF
sight of the land.
The people were in fact the social as
sociates Of Don Ccballos and Scnor
Vasquez, and had, every one, been
present at the secret political meeting;
they had volunteered their services to
man the yacht on the occasion OF her
trip to intercept the steamer laden with
arms, it not being deemed expedlent TO
make use Of q regular crew on such an
important mission.
Although the owner had sailed by the
Moro many times, yet this DAY he drew

nearly year and terroriZed a vide
section of country, was killed about
daylight this morning by Hardy Early,
colOred lad of II. The killing oc-
CURED in a swamp near Archer. Fla.
Murray called on Early about o'clock
and ordered him to 90 with him to
Archer, where he said he was going to
kill some crackers" and then leave
Alachua County. Early did not want
to 90 and said he had no gun, but Muir
raw took Early to the latter's brothers
house and made him produce double
barrel shot gun. Both barrels were
loaded with buckshot and Early put
fifteen more In each barrel. The two
then started toward Archer, having to
pass through a swamp on the way.
When thev got into the swamp Early
pretended he did not know the trail
and asked Murray to lead. Murray
took the lead, and immediately. Early
poured the contents Of both barrels into
lne back of Murray's head, killing him
instantly. Early then notified the peo-
pie at Archer, and g crowd went to the
spot, brought the corpse to town, and
afterwards sent it to GAINESVILLE. EX-
cltemeus there was intense, as several
lynchinas of Murray's confedtrates
have occurred in that vicinity. Early
was the hero of the hour and was
mounted on box, from which he made
speech describing the affair. He will
get $500 i'll rewards. Murray had
! killed seven men within tie past few
months and was as fearless as he was

one thousand persons homeless. and en-
tailed financial loss OF nearly $780,
COO. Many of the sufferers lost every
thing they had in the world, and the
mayor has appointed committee to re-

The fire burned over an area of eighteen
blocks. The loss is now estimated at
S6G5 900, though it is possible these fig
ures may be exceeded. The INSURANCE,
as near as can be ascertained, is S2!5,

by Yesterdays fire were the large brick
building of Vogt & Coon, the opera
house and the Third Regiment armory.
These building were only erected a year
ago, at a cost Of 100000. The city has
no regular water supply, and the utter

BABY IS DEAD!
4 Touching Story Tearfully and impress
Sively Told.

Within da1kened room, with cur
tains closely drawn, the sands Of lit
tie life are fastening to their end.
Two big brown eyes look up from the
fevered pillow with sad appeal for help
that cannot come Baby curls have
gathered in ringletS above the tiny fore
head anl the little hands are helpless
now. The childish prattle that once
echoed through the house is silent and
the moan of the sufferer breaksth still
ness Of the hour. Step softly; baby's
dying On, the gloom and anguish OF
coming death. The clock ticks louder,
the whispers grow more and more SUBJ
dued and the light that comes in through
the closed shutters cast spectral
shadow on the wall. The parents stand
with silent grief about the bedside OF
their dying child, watching with yearn-
ing love and breaking hearts the eyes
grow dim in death. Shorter and short
er grows each breath until at last
baby is dead,
Gather up the toys scattered here
and there about the r0om-all useless
now for bapyis dead Empty cradle,
broken playthings, tiny dresses, little
shoes great monuments Of grief-must
be put away, tor baby is no more. Think
of the suffering 10 those who watch for
little face pressed ag:ins5 the window
pane and see it not: who listen for the
patter OF little feet and the lisp of child
ish words and hear only the echo OF fall
ing clodS into new-made grave. Think
of empty arms that clasp no loved one,
of fearful eyes that look in vain, and
of aching hearts that long for a dear ia
rliiiar face, aud you will understand
the grief and silence OF the tomb.
All, those waxen folded hands, the
still heartso often pressed IN love to our
own, that sweet, Unmovlng alabaSter
face-Who has not mourned because
their little ONES are not. Only the light
ola little life, given aud taken in love.
has gone out, but the great shadows
that rise from little graves rest dark
and pall-Eke upon the hearts of those
who miss the sunbeam. At times. like
the dense darkness of the grave, we
grope for light, some outside health and
strength we all must have or die.
Above the narro% rim against which
We beat the wings Of our imagination,
there shines the glorious light of m
mortality and Gods love. If softens
every grief, and from every grave rise
lessons of faith and purity, love and
sympathy.
Over the banisterS of heaven the
brown eyes peep and amidst hymns of
choiring seraphS a baby'S prattle may
be heard
