Mr.. John Jenkins died at his residence In
Bridgeport on Thursday morning, April 9th, 1891.
after protracted Illness OF several months.
The subject or this notice was born August
10th, 1Sl0 marred In 1882; made profession of re-
ligOn In 1912. under the preaching of Father
Billy Hickman, and was baptised with his wife
into the fellowship OF South Benson Church.
Perhaps no man was held I'm higher esteem, owing
to his traits of character. Temperate I'm all
things. noted for firmness In conviction Of right
honest with his fellowmen In all of his dealings
His word was as good as bond, and when he ut
tered statement II could be relied on with the
utmost fidelity. No one doubted his veracity.
Blessed with remarkable physical condition,
which enabled him to apply himself faithfully TO
the duties OF life He was never content
to be Idle, and was happiest when In the perform
ance OF his duty. He was, In the true sense Of
the word, moral, upright Christian gentleman.
During many weary months he lived and Ian
guished. and with that prophetic vision which
often seems to grow stronger and brighter as one
approaches the darkness of the river he saw the
end with placid courage and calm rep0se.
He leaves five chldren-six grand children and
three great grandchildren to mourn his loss. The
funeral sermOn.was delivered by Rev. b. Il. Hun
gerfOrd from the text And now, Lord, what wait
for? my hope Is In Thee" after which the large
concOurse of sorrowing friends that followed him
to the grave attested the high regard In which he
was held by the entire community He rests from
his labOrs and his works do follow him.

The Old Veterans Coming.

Next Wednesday the Grand En-
campment of the G. A. R. will meet
in this city, and many an old soldier
will come to this city for the purpose
of taking look at the battle flags
which he followed during the dark
days from 81 to '65 and enjoy
meeting his comrades of thirty
years ago. The organization is not
political one, but fraternal body,
and it is hoped our citizens will give
the old veterans a cordial welcome
and make them feel at home during
their sojourn in our midst.

THE LoNe-BEARD FRATERNITY,
A Queer Bond of Sympathy Between Men
 Who~Are Strangers.

A Queer Bond of Sympathy Between Men
 Who-Are Strangers.
 A social philosopher. in the Boston Transcript says that there is kind of freemasonry in boards. A. man with a long beard always makes the acquaint- ance of other men with long boards. Their boards are the only common friend they need; and no man with such a beard will ever suspect any evil of an other man with a long beard. Thou sands of dollars have been borrowed with nothing but a beard for security. The acquaintance generally begins in the same way.
 "A [ fine day, sir," says one long bearded man to the other. They have been glancing at each other for some time in a friendly sort of way. The other makes casual reply about the weather.
 Good weather for whiskers to grow" !" says the first jocularly.
 That's fact" says the other; Chow long have yours been growing?"
 'Just seventeen years last Thanks giving"
 'Wen, I beatyou by a year and half 3
 Then they compare measurements; and from that time they get on famously. This is as good means of introduction as being very fat Did you ever notice how quickly two fat men get ac- quainted, and from comparing weights advance to all sorts of friendly conf denceS?

Thousands of Dollars Expended Which
 Might Be Put to Better Use.
 The mighty Caesar once asked, on see- ing strangers in Rome fondle monkeys: "Do the women Of your country bear you no children, that you are compelled to center your affections on those vile creatures?" He was evidently di sgusted; but then he had never become hard. ened to such sights as-may be seen on daily strolls up Fifth avenue, writes a New York correspondent. I walked from St. Patrick's cathedral to Thirtieth street on the avenue, and if I saw one ugly little canine decked with cost ly ribbons coddled and fondled by pretty women as they rolled along in their private carriages saw a hundred. have heard, and believe, that enough money is spent on dogs in this city every year to put one hundred candi- dates for the ministry through college. We are not much in advance of the bar barian who visited Rome two thousand years ago to pay tribute to the worlds conqueror, after all.

THE TRApE DoIIAH
ts Origin and Career-Coined for Use fin
 Oriental Countries


 Its Origin and Career-Coined for Trse fin Oriental Countries.
 One of the annoyances of business men is the trade dollar" says the Kan sas City Star. A man will come in hur- r1edly, make purchase, and throw down disc of silver that looks and rings like dollar. After he is gone the merchant finds 'strade dollar'' in his till, and it has a tendency to make him irritable.
 The trade dollar was a commercial convenience when first coined, but it is now a commercial nuisance In 1872 the trade dollar was issued for purposes ot trade with China and other Asiatic countries. Before that time Americans had been buying Mexican dollars and shipping them to the Orientals in pay ment of merchandise. The trade dollar was never intended for circulation in this country, but for exportation abroad. For five years they were coined and largely used. The act au thorlzing their coinage repealed the act authorizing the coinage of the standard dollar, thus making them for time the only dollar coins issued by the United states. The merchants might as well nave used silver bars for eastern trade, but 1t was thought that the stamp of the government certifying that 420 grains ot silver 900 fine would give other coun. tries greater confidence than to use simple bars of silver un. stamped and uncertiied. From 1873 to 1876 they were legal tender, and 15, ,OOO,- 900 of them were coined. From 1876 to 1878 all trade dollars coined were not legal tender, but it is the opinion of eminent lawyers that the 15, GOO, ,OOO al. ready coined were legal tender while those coined after 1876 were not. Their coinage was discontinued February 22, 1878, up to which time there had been S5,959, ,360 coined. The exact value of , trade dollar now is TT cents, although people get as much more than that for them as they can.
 February 19, 1887, an act was passed by congress authorizing the redemption Of trade dollars for six months, dollar for dollar. At that time statisticians estimated that1there were about 2, ,OOO,- 900 in the country. As 7,6s9, ,036 were redeemed it is probable that there are not many now in the United States, although they do not command a pre- mium as rarities.
 Like all the other coins of yalue the trade dollar has been counterfeit9d, most of the commercials being made of type metal and circulated in China, Ja- pan and the East Indies. The inhab- itants of the east have learned to be wary and watchful when handling coins that come from the occident. Most of the trade dollars that went to the eastern countries were melted and recoined in the currency of the orient The trade dollar contains four more grains of silver than the standard dol laf, and has eight one-thousandths the less of alloy.

OId-Fogy Mexicana.

A recent traveller in Mexico says the natives are unwilling to adopt modern ways, and it is nearly impossible to make them change. An Englishman en- gagged in mining put up a hoisting plant but found at once that 1t was money thrown away, as the workmen would not consent to it's use. They had long been accustomed to carry the ore in sacks supported by. a broad canvass band passing over their foreheads, and to receive so much for each sack deliv- cred at the mouth of the shaft. To get 1t there an ascent of over two hundred feet had to be made by means of lad ders, and accordingly progress was very slow. But nothing would induce them to use the hoisting machinery, and it had to be abandoned, every man work ing in the old fashion.

Foreign Markets for our Pork.

The beneficial result attending the
success Of our Republican administra-
tion is securing market in Germany
for our pork products is being discuss
ed with satisfaction by our American
producers.
1t is estimated that the annual
amount of our exports of these prod
ucts will be increased 25 per cent,
and that they will command better
prices. 1t is expected that their value
will be raised DIT least cent pound.
Our packers will now begin to turn
out the particular kind and style of
cuts of pork adapted to the German
market. Each country has its favor
tie cuts, and for instance ham for
English trade is trimmed differently
from one intended for home consump-
tion. And heavy and steady ship
ments of our pork in Germany will be
made in the very near future.
We are glad to say that now it seems
probable our Republican administra-
tion will before long also succeed in
opening to our pork producers the adj
ditional markets of Austria Hungary
and of France.

A Magnificent Argument.

In his address to the people of Pom
eroy, O., Maj. Mckinley was able to
make use of an argument that went
home with telling effect. A large roll
ing mill was erected in Pomeroy sew
eral years ago, but for long time pre-
vious to last October it has stood idle
and empty.
When the Mckinley law went into
effect it brought an immediate indus
trial awakening to the town. The roll
ing mill was promptly set to work
and it is now running night and day
manufacturing cotton ties. 1t en-
ployes 800 workmen at good wages
where none were employed before,
and it furnishes the means of comfort
able support to 1000 or 1,500 persons.
With such an example of the effect
of the Mckinley law, it would be
strange indeed if the citizens of POM
eroy did no vote overwhelmingly to
sustain it and to elect it's gallant au-
thor to the governorship of Ohio.
And what the present tariff has done
for Pomeroy in building up new in
dustry it has done for scores of other
towns all over the United States.
