IN. y. World

There is no such original genius as a
bandmaster as Patsy Gilmore. He
eclipsed himself again during the fun
eral procession Of Gen. Sherman down
Fifth avenue. AS his band was about
opposite the Worth monument, hav-
ing been playing the "Dead March in
SAUL" he gave one of his mystic
signs, and they began playing beauti
full dirge, with Marching Through
Georgia" as its theme, especially COM
posed for the occasion. 1t was Gill
more who swung his musicians off a
regimental march into 1.-The Wedding
March," at this same point on Fifth
avenue, when Mr.. Cleveland, then a
bachelor, was reviewing parade as
President, while his future wife
was sitting in a window of the
Fifth Avenue Hotel. The Pres
ident's bushes showed that Gilmore
had made decided hit. 1t was Gil
more, too, who marched through Wall
street with his band, during one of
the panics, on bis. way to depot, play
ng "Wait Till the Clouds Roll By"

DISCOVERIES IN ALASKA.
Schwatka's Surrey Unears...s Many New
Facts Concerning the Country.

VICTORIA, 3. c., Oct. II, 1S9l.-Lieu-
tenant Schwartka and DR.. Hayes, Of
the Geological Survey of Washington,
D. c., give interesting details Of their
Alaskan trip. Their expedition was
full Of narrow escapes and hardships,
and twice both leaders were nearly
drowned. A large number Of new
mountains were discovered, several of
which will rank among the highest in
North America. Seven hundred and
fifty miles Of a totally new country
were opened up. The passage of the
range Of St. Elias Mountains took five
days, and is the first record of white
men having accomplished the feat.
One magnificent peak, nearly sixteen
thousand feet high, was named Powell
Peak after Major Powell, of the geolog-
ical survey.
DR.. Hayes has brought magnificent
specimens of a foscilliferous crystalline
marble which resembles the famous
Tennessee marble, only much hand
somer. Whole ranges of this stone
were discovered. Many copper crys-
talline rock specimens were also brought
down. The specimens of fora consist
mostly Of moses, over a hundred va
rieties of which We're discovered. Vege-
tation was reported very scarce, the
trees being stunted and the hills COW
cred thickly with moses. The largest
timber met with was along the White
River and was only fourteen inches
thick.

great portion of these men try. to make
the common herd believe they have
different blood from ordinary mortals,
when if their antecedents are looked up
you will, without exception, find that
whiskey selling, robbing the poor by
high rents, stealing from them by
taking unlawful interest: or selling
necessary every day articles at enor-
NOUS prices, has been the way they.
have made their blood rich. The loafer
that lives of the sweat and blood Of
the unfortunate honest man is ten
times more criminal in the eyes of
heaven than the victim of inborn ap-
petite who may steal loaf Of bread or
a peck of potatoes. May the time soon
come when every man who will not
follow sorae business that is useful,
needful and beneficial to society shall
be compelled to work in the ditch
alongside of honest men! Every banker,
curbstone broker, saloon keeper, land
lord and keeper of houses of prostitu-
tion belong to this class, and are the
drones and thieves who live off and
sap out the lives of honest labor, and
no one Of them is any better or should
be more respected than another. Petty
is their business, feeding the
apetites and lusts of their victims
their avocation.

and China's Great Erll-Casters

ICincinnati Commercial-Gaze
The Russians and the Chinese are
behind the rest of the civilized world
in many things, but bell-founding is
not among the number, for the bells
manufactured by both nations are not
only the largest, but among the best Of
those made by any nation. 1t is said
that before the great fire oy which
Napoleon was driven out Of Moscow
there were in the churches of that city
1,706 bells, each ofwhich exceeded 15,-
coo pounds in weight. The capital of
China, Pekin, i, according to Father
lie Compte, not far behind as in its tenn
pies where there are seven bells, each
exceeding 10000 pounds, and great
number of less size. The giant bell of
the world is in Moscow; it is POLITICALLY
denoninated the King of Bells, and is
l9 feet and 3 inches high, and its cir
cumlerence round the rim is 90 feet
and inches. It's weight can, Of course,
only be estimated, but, by the least
calculation, it is 443, 1872 pounds, and its
value IS old metal exceeds $500, ,0O0, not
considering the gold and silver, Of
which there is considerable quantity,
which enter into its composition. This
bell, when rung required forty men to
ring it, the clapper being swung by
means Of two long ropes, with twenty
men at each. The great bell at ST.
Ivan's, in Moscow, is forty feet and
nine inches in circumference, its thick
ness just above the rim ssiXteeni inches
and its weight is computed at 127, $50
pounds. The bells of Pekin have been
mentioned, but next to them is the
great bell of Vienna, which weighs
40,2OO pounds. After these are many
smaller, yet of considerable size. A
bell of OlmutZ, Bohemia, aud bell ia
Rouen, France, are about equal in size
to the Vienna bell; the bell of st.
Paul's London, weighs 3S,470 pounds;
the bell of Westminister: 80, $50; that of
st. Peters, In Rome, 1860. Several of
these bells are sounded only on very
important occasions. The St. Paul
bell, the Vienna bell and the bell of st.
Ivan's are tolled only at the death of
royalty; the hell C. st. Peters tolls at
the death of a Pope.

THREE
REASONS
WHY

Has il ever occurred to YOU that, in
selecting company in which to assure
vour life, there are three points which,
# correctly ascertained, will determine
beyond ali question the best company
for you to choose?
Here they are:-
F1RsT-SAFETY.
sEcoSD-CoNTRACT.
TH1RD-RESULTS.
SAFETY Cor Strength is all impor.
tant: for an insurance contract is either en-
tered into for long period Of years Or for life
In the case OF an insurance company tas
With an individual OK with any other business
organiza,ion), strength is determined by the
amount of assets OVER AND ABOVE ALL LA
p111T1Es: or, in other words, by the Surplus
AS the surplus of the Equitable Life kssur-
ance Society of the United States on Dec
3Ist 1881, amounted to Twenty. three and Three
onarter Millions "a sum many millions in
excess Of the surplus held by any other life
company in the world), and as the Equ1table's
ratio of assets to liabilities is 125 per cent,
i. e., SIPS to meet each 500 Of indebtedness "a
percentage greatly in excess OF that OF any
other leading company, $he question OF
greatest safety must be decided in favor OF
