WASHINGTON, Dec. 30.-Referring 10
the financial measures that had been in
troduced in Congress, and particularly
those which had the repeal Of the sher-
man law in view, Senator Mitchell yester-
day said that he did not think any serious
attempt would be made TO force those
bills to vote. In both Houses, he
thought, there was q large majority
against the repeal OF the act which auth
orizes the secretary OF the treasury TO
purchase silver. lie was very positive
that the majority against the repeal OF the
law In the. Senate was sufficient TO with
stand any assaults that might be made on
II. This Congress, he said, will do moth
ing In the matter of financial leg islation.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3O-At y o'clock last
night DIR. Johnston said Gas compared
with previous mornings, the one Just
passed was the best Mr.. Blaine has had
since he was i'll. Tonight ne is as well az
he was Wednesday night"
A call at the Blaine residence later.
brought forth the statement that Mr..
Blaine was much better.
A gentleman who has access TO Mr..
blalnes room, said that the impression
that Mr.. Blaine made upon him was
about the same as that made upon j. III.
Manley OF Maine, who saw Mr. Blaine
yesterday, viz: that Mr.. Blaine is slowly
Improving, but is still very i'll.
The Impression that non, ,,rara;,s or,ox..
those who have actual knowledge of Mr..
Blaine's condition is that, while he is very
SICK, he u in no immediate danger OF
death. No one is bold enough, however,
20 assert that Mr.. Blaine will ever again
be well man.

ITS TRUE VALUE
Facts Upon That painted" Dress-The
Prisoners Christmas.


Prisoners Christmas.
FALL RIVER, Dec. 3o.-In relation to
the story recently published concerning
Lizzie Borden's burned dress, the News
says: ''vAs Bridget Sullivan testified at the
preliminary hearing that she did not
know what dress Miss Borden wore the
morning of the murders, as the police
only found in the stove the remains OF
some charred paper, which Is easily ac-
counted for, as the dress was not burned
until the Sunday after the murders. and
az the burning was unknown to the dis
trict attorney or the police until after the
ten days adjournment of the Grand Jury
last month, and as Miss Russell did not
say "red" paint, although juryman put
the question as to that color to draw her
out, the real value of this true story now
published for the first time can be easily
estimated by any person OF common
sense"
The News also says regarding the fables
concerning the prisoners Christmas:
1.-The dispatch which reported cheerless
lonely Christmas for Lizzie A. Borden
was an error. On Sunday, as usual on the
Sabbath, no visitors were allowed to see
her, although one called; but on Monday
Miss Borden was visited by Lawyer Jenn-
ings, Miss Emma l.. Borden, and perhaps
Others, while considerable number OF
presents were sent To her. Before the end
OF last week she had began to receive these
tokens OF kindly remembrance. Her
sister visited her Friday afternoon, bea--
ing presents"

weel;lies, and has more of the true,
generous American spirit. 1t may be

It will soon be time for the annual
appearance of that individual whose
nose has the appearance of railroad
danger light, and whose six weeks
beard and scragly hair are tangled
with burrs whose coat is ragged and
its color has gone with the departed
days, while his toes look through the
windows of his shoes and his trousers
are relics of the past. He will have a
good story to tell about sickness and
death, accidents and miraculous hap
penings which have brought him to
his present unhappy condition, and if
you offer him work by which he may
earn his dinner, you will be informed
that he is physically unable to do it.
