Senator Pugh on Silver.

WAsHISGroN. Nov Ex-senator Pugh
of Alabama has written letter denying en-
phatically a statement made by Senator
Carlisle that any Democratic senator or con-
gresham who supports the recoinage OF
silver has expressed any desire, intention
or purpose to abandon or ig
more the vital issue of tariff
reform. ''An tlat the friends of
silver demand; says Senator Pugh, lis
what the Democratic party in every
national convention has done without a
single exception keep the taxation and
currency together, as coordinate and CO.
equal subjects of remedial legislation.
Neither tariff reform nor financial reform
has ever been ignored nor abandoned, nor
one subordinated to the other
in any Democratic platform during the
lifetime of the party. If the friends of sill
yer are to be classed as unwise counselors
and unsafe leaders, ;ecause they insist that
the silver issue shall not be abandoned or
ignored in the presidential contest of 1892,
but that it shall go hand in hand
and receive the same treatment with
all other issues made III the Demo-
cratic platform, especially when they are
so classed and condemned at the instance
and in the interest of those Democrats who
thrott!ed the free coinage bill in the last
house of representatives. AL the friends
of silver have to say is that they are accus-
toned to such classification and hope to be
able to persevere in the vindication of their
convictions and integrity. As Democrats
and friends Of free coinage they protest
against being retired from the councils
of the Democratic party because they
are unwilling to allow the corporal's guard
of gold representatives to dictate to the
friends of silver and silence and POSTPONE
them in their Just demands until the veto
power can be put in the hands of Demo
crat for four years, to be exercised against
any adjustment of the silver question ex-
cept on the formula to be furnished by the
wise counselors and safe leaders to be
found only in the neighborhood of Wall
street,

He must feel, but he must guide and
check his feelings as skillful rider

double part to play; merely to fee
himself is not enough; he has to make

make use Of an instance afforded me BY
NJ. Coquelin himself
Once, he says, he was tired before he
came on the stage, and falling sound
asleep when feigning sleep, he snorel
real snores instead Of feigned ones The
result was, he tells us. that he never
snored 80 badly Naturally SO, since he
had lost control Of the steed of feeling by
the fact of his sleeping. and so it ran
away and carried him be knew not

able to guide those tears into the chan

For the last 200 or 800 years there ha
been much speculation among sciantifi,
men as to the exact cause Of the phe
nomenon of earthquakes, which has in
cidentally added new interest to tn
query: How thick is the earth's crust
In discussing the earthquake problem
different schools of scientists have taken
different views of the matter, one branch
OF them supposing the quake to he tbs
result Of an effort Of the great interna
heat to escape through weak portion
of the earth's crust; the others declar,
that it is caused by shrink,.se of TIL
outer strata on account Of the cooling
process going on deep down in the
bowels of the earth
About ten or twelve years ago the Ger
man government made u gigantic effort
to settle this perplexing question for all
time to come by sinking a shaft near the
city Of Schladebach, with the object
especially of obtaining Trustworthy data
concerning tue rate of increase Of the

to be the greatest depth to which man

centage OF increase is maintained the

about 5000 meters. and at - miles the

To the average congressman 5000 a
year is considerable money. | would
not like TO say that there are any gentle
men in congress who do not attach more
importance to the honor of a seat In the
national legislature than they do to the
amount Of salary they are paid for their
services. Still, have good reason for
saying that there are more men in con
gress who manage to save something
out Of their salaries than there are of
those who practically never touch their
allowances as congressman
There are several men now in the
house who live during the session of
congress upon the amounts that they re.
ceire AS mileage and what they are al

ready money for their expenses. or if il

I am sitting by my Preside,
In its warm and rudy glow,
Wills the day IS slowly dying
And the shadows come and go;
And within the glowing embers
Shadowy forms seem to see
Shadows that bring back 10 memory
Friends and days once dear to me
And although this freight dreaming
Pleasant Is, yet still there run
Through it all deep tones Of sadness
Like to shadows DER the sun:
Fog the dear ones whose sweet faces
Made my heart so glad and gay.
They with whom talked and Iourneyed
On each happy summer day
Now ere absent; and miss them
As sit alone tonight, q
AS | see their dreanlanl faces
In the dim and Pickering light
Yet some day in the far future.

In the flrellght's ruddy glow
BIT tonight, when they are absent
1t is pleasant just to see,
In the glowing Hight before me,
Faces of those dear to me.
So sit and dream and wonder,

While the day is slowly dying,

Parents have proudly Told me of sick

tories are worse thal d1feats. have

piEted against each oEiler. with a look ia

hatred; and when | thought of the

boys pluck. There should be no such
occasions. The parent stands convicted
Of utter stupidity in finding himself IN
any such situation.
There are times when it is wiser for
the parent to ignore some mood on the
childs part. The part OF the parent
should be in ever seeking the wise
opportunity to impress the child with
the virtue that is the reverse Of
some fault it falls into. Children pass
through various phases and some dragon
OF FAULT that one has been worrying
over and planning against suddenly van
ishes into thin air and is no more. Some
times one fixes fault by noticing it too
much. It becomes an expression Of
nervousness The child repeats fault
through an inability to pass over it. It
becomes like hard word in the spelling
book that he has met before. He recog-
nizes the word without knowing its
name, and at the same moment renem-
bers his struggles with it, and the pain
fnl impression fills him with nervous
ness. his mind becomes confused and he
cannot control his thought. 1t is wise
with a fault, as with the hard word, to
let It go to escape it. Omit the hard
word; avoid anything to excite the ha-
oitual fault. Presently the child for
gets the fault. It may be said that in
ludicious parents often create their chill
