The Century.

ono % .s.s, ....ss i-..,eaas pietases of
the world has been engraved by Mr..
Cole for the frontispiece of the April
Century, the Mona Lisa of Leonardo
da vinci. This IS in the Century's
series of old masters. engraved imme-
diately from the ORIGINALS in the gal
leries of Europe. Two other examples
of Leonardo accompany Mr.. Stillman's
article on this mater.
In the California series Mr.. Julius
H. Pratt gives graphic description of
the emigration to California by way OF
Panama in 40. The pictures are very
striking, having been drawn by Gilbert
tiaul, after originals made from life
by an artist in 1850. In this connec-
ton is paper of great historical value
by the late General J. G. Fremont on
his own part Ia the Conquest of Cali
fornia." SEES 80
Life In another war prison, at the
North, is described by a Confederate
soldier, DR.. John A. Wyeth, of New
York City. He shows that "Cold

worst phases of cold and hunger.
In this number the Century's Noun

iert by Mr.. E. J, Glave. one of Stanley's

that so far from Frederick the Great

Great to the American general, and
The never recognized in any remark

WASHINGTON. Jan. 30.-Silvef bearings
were continued by the House coinsse COM
mit,ee to-day. Director Leech of the Min,
said sha. The exchange value Of silvsr had
been kept equal to tha. Of geld because the
government would exchange silver fer
gold. Refusal to do this would injaee the
credit of the government. He did not be-
ave gold and silver would circulate to-
sethes II bi-metAlism were ests blished
hare. He did not believe silver could
be kept at par with gold Antil
there was An international agreement.
The effect Of the passage Of the free coiu-
age bill. be thought. would be that foreign
nations having stocks in silver OF hand would
chip them here. Before these shipments
could arrive, the alarm would BE- 50 great
that the gold would be withdrawn from The
treasury and boarded by the banks, so that
the govern meat would have no gold with
which TO pay for silver. The effect Of free
coinage would be the contraction Of cur
rency- How long this would last he could
not tell.
Edward Atkinson was examined. He
said credi. depended not upon the quantity
of money but quality. He declared that
free coinage would stop credit, which would
stop business, as business was already re-
stricted very lstgely b. the fear of such
legislation By r..uiAl selection gold had
become the standard tue world over and it
could not be helped. Atkinson said that he
tho Ight that England was on the safest
hpsncisl basis of any country in the world,
and this was due to her adherence to the
gold standard. He declared that to his
c4i aia knowledge since the presen. free
coinsge was passed by the Senate large
Transactions, amounting to hundreds Of
thousands of dollars. had been summariiy
suspended after being we'll under way.
As soon as Atkinson finished tney adjourned

wATERvILLE FIREMEN
Do 0ood Service at the North Au-
son Blaze.


Especial to the KENNEBEc JOURNAL
WArERvILLE, Jan. 3O.-This forenoon at
about l o'clock, or little before, a Istart-
ling message came from North Anson, to
the e feet that that village was being de-.
stroyed by fire and asking for assistance.
as soon as possible, the steamer and good
delegation of the FIRE department, under the
First Assistant Chief Engineer. Mr..
William Proctor, with quite q
number of citizens was started on q train
made up for the occasion and run under the
personal dire ction of Mr.. G. A. Alden, who
never fails to be on hand upon such an
occasion. A quick run was made to Oak
land, where there was short
delay while the hand engine WAS being
loaded and then a start was made and the
distance between Oakland and North Anson
was accomplished in 55 mlnu.es.
On arriving at the lstser place it was
found that fire had broken out in the hay,
in tue upper part of Brown & Hilton's
stable ard spread with alarming rapidly,
Streams Of water were thrown upon the blaze
in very short time. and under the
efficient management of Mr.. Fairbrother,
one Of the proprietors of the Shank fac
tory. the are was banded in q manner that
won prsize from everybody. There was
high wind prevailing at the time. and the
fear was general that the whole village
would be swept The hotel, which
was close by the stable. was pretty
well cleared OF its furniture, and
large quantity of wool was re-
moved from one of the ad joining build
ngs. The stable is a wreck and three po-
MES and two horses were smothered to
death before they could be rescued. Sew
eral others with carriages, were taken out
and saved. There was an insurance on the
property in Tuttle's agency at Skowhegan.
There are no facilities for extinguishiug
fires at North Arson except those afforded
by the force-pump at the shank factory,
and this of course is available only for a
limited area. Additional hose and more
hydrsnts are needed, and the same should
be furnished forthwith by the town.
The necessity of doing something in this
direction has been strenuously urged, but
70 no purpose. The force-pump has done
most excellent service on several previous
oceasions, and can be relied upon when the
fire happens to be within its reach.
The prompt response of the Waterville
firemen to the call was thoroughly appreci-
sted by the people of North Anson, who
provided for them fine collation., compris-
ing hot coffee, oyster stews. pies, cake, &c.
The train started on the return between
two and three.
