BIn:etali,sm Is Practicable.

Candidly admitting the truth OF
many arguments in support of binet-
alism the New York Press still in
sists that it is unwise and impractical
BILE in this country until an interna-
tional agreement is arrived at on the
free coinage question. 1t believes
that If the United States should take
the lead in this matter foreign silver
would be brought in and the country
drained of its gold. Mr.. Moreton
Frewen, who is said to be one of the
most conspicuous advocates of bime-
tallism in Europe, is now in this
country, and in recent interview
reported in the New York Sun, very
forcibly combats the idea entertained
by the Press. He points out the utter
absurdity of coined silver, which is
already legal tender money in Europe
at higher ratio to gold, 154 to /,
being melted to be brought here.
There is no silver bullion here to
speak Of. But even if European sill
YER was melted up and sent here,
MIR. Frewen maintains that the effect
would be to draw gold from the banks
of England instead of from the banks
of this country. II the owners of sill
yer coin wanted gold he would "buy
New York Centrals and sell those
shares again in London for gold,
drawing gold from the Bank of Eng
land, the only institution in the world
which obliges itself to pay gold on
demand" If this view of the situa-
ton IS correct, it completely disposes
of the theory preached by the mono
metallists of this country.

WORK on the school house was
stopped yesterday. The money raised
by taxation ran out. Another tax
cannot be voted until the next regu-
lar school election. The trustees,
after the time and labor they have
been out, cannot afford to stand good
for the balance of the work, and as
the district has not the power under
the new law to vote a tax until next
June, we are III fix. There is only
about one weeks further work to dc
to complete the building, and the dis
trict is in bad fix just now, bu,
there is most always way ou,
Of an emergency of this kind, and il
is hoped that the necessary money
can be raised in some way. The
workmen expressed their Willingness
to go ahead if the trustees woulc
stand good for their pay, but no one
expects to see the trustees do that
as they have already Gone far more
than their share. Of course work
men do not care to work and wal
until after the next regular schoo
election for their pay, and then taxi
chances on the tax being voted down
A dance OF two and an entertainment
of some kind would raise enougl
money to complete the work, AM
Judging by the past it is safe to sa.
that anything gotten up to rails
money for that purpose would b
literally patronized.

There was nobody in America at that

A new electrical carriage, one that
will go this time, is claimed to have
been invented by an Indiana man.
1t will run on the stored accumulation
plan, and will be so cheap, the supply
of generating material can be re-
newed so easily, and the machinery
itself will be of such light weight
that we may expect to see electricity
take the place of the faithful, long
serving horse. The machine can be
used for any vehicle, from a heavy

HEAPS OF HoPrERs.

Geo. b. Abbott, IN long and ex-
haustive Camas Prairie grasshopper
article, in the Bellevue Herald, gives
the following graphic description of
heaps of dead hoppers:
"Some of your readers may think
my estimate OF hundred tons of
dead grasshoppers exaggeration, and
to such wish to say that all along
the creeks and bitches they lay in
drifts and piles from two to ten inch
es in depth, and turned the water out
of the channels, forming dams that
one could walk over. These drifts
were close together, not to exceed fif-
ty yards apart on the average, and
the decomposition of the myriads of
hoppers caused an intolerable stencil
for three or four weeks. / often
broke away the drifts near my resi-
| dence, and to do so had to use show
ell or hay fork, and could lift four or
five inches of solid hoppers OIL four
tined hay fork. l have broken the
sane drift three times in one day in
order to stop the crawling hoppers
from crossing the creek over such
drifts so that they could not get onto
such crops as had on this side. This
condition extended all over the prai-
rie along streams in territory thirty
miles one way by fifteen the other,
and continued about three weeks;
doubters can make their own esti-
mates.
What the exact nature of the dis
ease was that killed the hoppers,
am not certain; but the little scarlet
or blood red insect, bug or parasite
as you wish to call it, was conspicu,
Gus and could be found on many hop
pers. They cut through the she'll be-
tween the wings, and even when the
parasites could not be found the bach
of the hopper often bore evidences o
his handiwork. Maggots about one
fourth of an inch long, lively ane
much like that produced by the com
mon blow fly could often be squeezed
out of the hoppers. Most of the hop
pers were noted for a condition o
emptiness, dull or sluggish action ant
would begin to culver, kick about
few minutes, fall over and die in
short time. / repeat that there Cal
be no reasonable doubt that we hav,
reached the end Of the plague afte
seven years of devastation on tn
prairie. Yes, seven years on tn
prairie, IN some locality or other, the
5 grasshoppers have got in their work
while for five years it has been quit

people should hold jubilee and al
attend in gratitude for the deliver

ADVICE TO YOUNG MEN.
Some Words that, it Would be Well
for Them to Read.

Young man, if u friend asks you
to join card party, where the stakes
are small, just enough to make the
game interesting, you know, don't
you do it.
There are more gamblers in the
world now than can make a decent
living. You are under no obligations
to become one, and of course you
don't want to deprive any other man
of his means of livelihood. To be-
come an expert gambler takes a
great deal ofpatient study and ex>
perience. You have got to give up
reputation, home and heaven. Don't
you do it.
If you are invited into saloon to
take drink, don't you do it. There
are really too many drunkards in the
world now; too many dying every
year ; too many broken and deserted
hearth stones; and too many starv-
ing widows and children; too many
criminals in State prisons; too MAN.
murderers being hung; too much
misery and shame and sill on every
side. Don't You do it.
That drink means very little to
your friend or to the saloon keeper,
but it may mean great deal to you.
1t may be the first step in the stair
way that always leads down, never
up, and the bottom is never reached.
If there are any vacancies in the
ranks of the drunkards you might be
excused for becoming one, but real
ly the recruiting is going on 80
briskly that good people the world
over are trying to put a stop to it.
That terrible army can do so we'll
without you that there is no neces-
sity for you to join it, so don't take
that drink. Don't you do it.
If you are with some young men
who are depreciating the honor Of
women, you are tempted to join with
them, don't you do it. Think of your
mother and sisters and leave the
crowd. They can stain you but you
can't stain them; they are soiled al.
most beyond redemption.
The young man who habitually
speaks lightly of women has founc
his data in society not recognized
as legal or respectable.
lfyou value your own happiness
ard the approval of your own con-
science, don't join that gang. Don t
you do it.

Discomfort.

Discomfort has its uses for good.
yet it too often causes only unhap-
plness to its possessor especially is
this the case with woman. So laay
good true hearted women let it
enter their quiet homes and pat to
flight the sweet peace and happiness
that reigned.
They see some neighbor or friend
who has more than they, or is able
to dress better or entertain more
than they can. So, instead Of being
glad, that their friends can enjoy so
much, they become disconnected
with their humble surroundings,
and are perfectly miserable until
they can get even with those they
envy. And in order to 90 this, it
is often necessary TO nag the poor
husband until he is driven into
debt. And once started he must 90
on; for one thing calls for another,
until there is no end. At last, that
once happy family are making
brilliant show in society, and sailing
on the topmost wave of popularity,
but with burden OF debt on them
that threatens to sink them into the
dark gulf beneath, and there is no
more peace in the harbor of home.
So, too, with girls who think they
must 'keep up with society, even
if they have to keep up continual
storm at home. So, too, the young
bride and groom, they must have
fashionable church, with fashionable
presents and fashionable lunch.
Then, too, it is so stylish to get
married and board with nothing
aday, wherewith to pay.
And SO it goes on and on, one is
aping another, and each striving to
out-do the other until there is no
original "simon pure" contentment
to be found.

He Did Not Call.

The man who tried DIR. Sage's
Catarrh Remedy, and was sure of
the $500 reward offered by the pro-
prietors for an incurable case, never
called for his reward. Why not :?
0, because he got cured He was
sure Of two things: % That his
catarrh could not be cured. (2)
That he would have that $500. He
is now sure of one thing, and that
is, that his catarrh is gone complete
ly. So he is out $500, of course.
The makers of DIR. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy have faith in their ability
to cure the worst cases of Nasal
Catarrh, no matter of how long
standing, and attests their faith by
their standing reward of $500, Of
tered tor many years past, for an in
durable case of this loathsome and
dangerous disease. The Remedy is
sold by druggists, at SO cents. Mild,

A YOUNG MANS FANCY.

Large allowance is to be made for
the sweeping assertion of the poet
that I'm the spring young mans
fancy lightly turns to thoughts of
love-" 1t certainly is not true of the
malarial young man, whose fancy if
he has any, is of the dull and heavy
variety. The malarial young man
marches around as the captive of
General Debility. The readiest and
most obviest means of escape are
afforded by S. s. S., which, without
any flourish, routs General Debility
and his malarial allies. What is true
of the young man is true of the
young lady, and the whole host of
sufferers. S. S. S. is specific for
malaria.
