SHERMAN TALKS.
What the Big Victory in Ohio
Has Settled.
The Questions TO Come Before the
People at the Presidential
Con test In 1899.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Nov. GA correspond
ent Of the Leader at Mansfield sends an in
teryiew with Senator Sherman on the re-
as to what effect the result in Ohio would
have upon the election next year, the
senator said: TN the first place, SO far as
the republican. party is concerned, the re-
suit In Ohio fixes the silver question as one
ofthe issues of the next presidential CON
test, and decidee it so far as this state is
concerned. I am convinced that free
coinage will be passed by the congress
which assemblies in December also be-
ieye such will be vetoed by President
Harrison. That will naturally make free
silver a feature of the next presidential
fight; in fact it will be leading issue upon
which there isl vast difference Of opinion
in both parties. 1t is exactly like the
tariff. Local conditions and interests govern
the sentiment and action. / doubt yely
much whether the Democracy in the nat
ional convention will proclaim for free
coinage. If they should, there will be no
other issue OF significance in the next cam
paign. The financial battle that we fought
in Ohio, will then be transferred to the ma
tion, and contests such as we have
never seen, will be the result The tariff
will be prominent, but not a vital point
in the contest"
'"Then the Mckinley bill was notthe only
thing in sight" F." was asked Sherman.
"Not by any means. Its principles in
the main are correct. Protection relative
to tin with many degrees. What pIeases
one sections interests, excites another, and
it is extremely difficulty to make measure
that will be accepted alike to consumer,
producer or manufacturer"
The tariff question is practically settled
but it will always be source of agitation
as long as the government lasts. During
the next session of congress it can hardly
be considered, but in the next campaign it
will be leading issue with the silver ones
ton just as it has been in Ohio this year.

wound in the left breast.
Suspicion at at once pointed to Michael

between Lombardo and Servi for some
time, alleged to have resulted from for
mer intimacy between Lombardo and Mrs.
Seryi. Servi chased Lombardo with re-
volyer some nights ago, and on Tuesday
last both Servi and his wife attacked him
in the yard, and Servi's wife made threat
that she would drink Lombardo's blood.

FROM THE souDAN.


The worlds not greatly changed since those old
When the white thumbs of Roman danes turned
down
Their tender joints. To gain the public praise
And take the applauding fancy of the to"'n,
Life must be cut even to the quick, the heart
Must show red veins where it was cleft apart.
IT'S not think al fierce and cruel greed,
This keen desire TO drain the juicy cora
OF the strange fruit upon LIES tree. A need,
Insatiate and iinperious, evermore
Stings us to cognizance Of good and i'll
Show Us the truth! Yea, though it save or kill.
To dress play, make real the mimic war
OF the fought desert fields of the Soudan,
To the new world across the seas afar
Were brought the coats outlasting many man.
The tinse braid, more tough than the heart
strings
That beat for honor-ah, those soulless things!
There, in the theatre wardrobe room, heap
OF worn and fight stained uniforms, each one
Had some grim secret of its own to keep,
Of pain or sudden death or brave deeds done
A solemn mantle that some night would droop
From careless shoulders of hireling ''supe."
What's thatg A little photograph has slipped
Out of this pocket-just pretty face,
With tossing hair, soft eyed and merry Tipped,
A likeness full of simple, girlsh grace.
Three words red blotted where the bullet tore,
Sign her ''Your loving Nellie'' Nothing more.
Was she his sister, sweetheart or young brider
Will she remember always or forget?
Is she on earth or at her dear ones side
Where in the heavenly fields their souls are
met?
Poor little sister of all those who weep
Not hopeless of the waking after sleep!
Play up The martial music for the rise
OF the green curtain, let the play begin;
The pageantiy of fight before our eyes
Crosses the scene with drums and trumpets'
din,
Lo, this is wars presentment, this is fame!
Why will that violin sob Nellie's name?

About the Books VOu Read.

it. Your choice of books is an index to your
character, and if you change your index
without changing your character you have
gained only lying index. Become modest,
simple, thoughtful, and you will demand
these qualities in your books. Develop an
affectionate interest in human life about
you, its pathos and tragedy, and you will
come to like Shakespeare and history Use
your eyes, and you will require science.
So that one must live ones way into a
love for good literature, and it must come
gradually. Yet ever as it comes by a
subtle reaction which it would be folly to
deny the helpful books stimulate the life,
enlarge it, concentrate it. make it sincere
and thorough and enjoyable. Book re-
viewers used to say that such book was
one (which every gentleman should have
in his library" Now they have advanced
to the eulogy, "a book which every one
should read" And there's good time
coming when the formula of highest praise
will run, cts a book which every one
should liker'-New York Ledger.

Folding Guns Instead of Knives

The Italian assassin of New Orleans has
long since abandoned the stiletto. Occa-
sionally the banana knife, a more effective
weapon, is used; but the blunderbuss or
sawed off gun is the favorite. 1t is objec-
tionable in this, that il makes noise that
alarms the police, but it has the merit that
it never fails. The assassins take an old
double barreled gun and file off the barrels,
leaving them about fifteen inches in length.
The stock is also removed and fitted to it
with hinge. The weapon is therefore
like a clasp knife, three feet or more in
length. but when closed only fifteen inches.
The Italian using it can easily conceal the
gun in his coat or trowsers, effectually hid
ing it. When it is ready for use he opens
it and he has double barreled musket,
which will shoot further and better than a
revolver This is loaded to the muzzle
with rough slugs which scatter in firing,
and which tear the victim badly. Nearly
all of the men killed by the Stopagherra
have been found with from six to ten fatal
wounds Philadelphia Press.

Smoke Combustion.

John O'Brien, a boiler maker, says
whenever the subject of smoke consump
ton is agitated there are columns of theo
ries about how the proper combustion can
be secured, and the whole subject is dis
cussed as an unrealized hope, just as all
ships or perpetual motion are discussed
The fact is the smoke consumption prob
lem has been solved for several years By
what is known as a down draught furnace
There are several patterns of them, but the
principle is the same. The furnace doors
are left open, the coal is fed on CRATE bar
that is made Of steam pipe connected with
the boiler. Beneath the CRATE bar, on the
ground level, is a brightly burning fire
made by the coal dropping from above
The furnace is SO constructed that when
the doors are open the smoke passes down
ward and is consumed by the under fire
have had such a furnace in operation TO,
three years, and no one can see any smoke
from my stack, while, after long investi
cation, have learned that I have saved
just one-third in coal. st. Louis Globe

A Case for Heroic Treatment.

There is somewhat ancient dame who
lives near Washington square She is by
no means good looking being good like
ness of the queen in "Alice in Wonder
land'' The lady is most methodical in her
habits and always catches the same
Seventh avenue car every morning An
other.habit of hers is always to give the
conductor 50 bill. He endured it for some
time, but when he found out that every
morning the same thing occurred, and
there was large hole made in his avail
able small change, he determined to put
stop to it, In parenthesis it may be men
toned that 50 is the limit for which pas
scnger may demand change.
A few mornings ago the conductor got
his revenge, for in return for the bill he
handed the woman 1875 pennies. There was
an awful explosion, but the conductor re-
manned firm, and then she exclaimed she
"did not want them" a Thompson street
fellow, whose shortness of hair and general
appearance seemed to denote that the state
had been taking care of him, expressed
himself as ready to relieve the lady of her
change. This elected no reply, and soon
the coppers disappeared in a wonderful old
reticnle, and she herself got Off. at Thomp-
son and Canal streets. She is not travel

Man and His World.

For all that we can foresee of the future,
the dependence of man upon the conditions
of his environment is of an insuperable
nature. The good he wins he secures by
obedience to the commands of his mother
earth. Looking back over the history of
life upon the earth's surface, the phys
iographer is forced to the conclusion that
its highest estate embodied in the moral
and intellectual qualities of man has been,
in the main, secured by the geographic
variations which have slowly developed
through the geological ages. Thus our
continents and seas cannot be considered
as physical accidents in which and on
which organic beings have found an ever
perilous resting place, but as great engines
operating in a determined way to secure
the advance Of life.-Professor N. S.
Shaler in Scribners.

Cape claim a pan of gold containing 1O4
ounces and pennyweights of pure, clean
metal that sold for over s., 600 We found
the shining stuff in the middle of the river
bed under large bowlder. 1t was some
distance above bedrock, and we did very
little stripping of the surface dirt before
finding it. The gold was in small pieces,
the largest of which was not worth more
than twenty-five cents; it was all fine
scale gold. When we found it it had set
tied in a crevice Of the rock, where it had
washed by a natural riffle.-Virginia tNev. }
