Prehistoric Relics.

Messrs. Moorehead and Cresson, in
charge of the Worlds Columbian expo
sition survey, engaged in investigating
the mounds at Chillicothe, O., have
come upon one of the most notable
finds in the history Of such discoveries.
Recently a skeleton was found, with
such signs of ank in the way of orna-
ments and instruments, as to lead to
the conclusion that it was king whose
remains were discovered. On one day
one hundred and twenty copper objects
were found, consisting of fish, crosses
Of various shapes, combs, crescents,
anklets, earrings, bracelets, etc. Such
collection, for variety and finish, was
never found before. Such resem-
blance to the work found in Mexico was
noted that it may be that primeval
man in Ohio and Mexico had close re-
lationship.

A SYRIAN WEDDING.

The First That Has Been Witnessed in
America.
A Syrian wedding, the first of the
kind ever witnessed in this country, was
-celebrated at st. Louis on a recent af-
fernoon, in accordance with the usages
that prevail in Syria. In America it
would be called reception, but it
differed from the ordinary receptions in
that it was strictly for Syrians. The
groom was Kalel Wasoff and the bride
was Adlaid Miken. After being mar
1ied by Catholic priest at st. Mary's
church, the couple, in company with
about seventy-five of their countrymen,
men and women, proceeded to celebrate
the event. There were beer, wine and
eatables in abundance. A part of the
programme was the spraying Of per
fume from cologne bottle over the
crowd, every newcomer getting sup
ply of the odors in the face. The ladies
present, of whom there was quite a
snumber, indulged in doleful chant in
the Syrian language, which lasted for
. couple of hours. 1t was explained to
. reporter as being method OF con.
Gratulating the bride in her new state.
The reception lasted until late in the
afternoon. Many Of the participants

MILITARY RULE IN EUROPE.
War Is Considered Possible and Even
Probable Mt ANY Moment.

War Is Considered Possible and Even
Probable Mt ANY Moment.
European civilization to-day is based
ON the idea that war is not only an i'm
minent possibility but probability,
and q great class in every country has
been trained to look upon blood she'd
ding as its proper vocation. The great
prizes are reserved for soldiers; honors,
fame, position and the monarch's favor
70 to the sons of Mars. The military
budget exceeds-many times over does
it exceed-the appropriations for public
instruction. The salary of colonel is
earned by but few professors, writes
". e. Thayer in the Forum. The cost
of the powder and shot wasted in Eu-
rope between any dawn and dusk
would probably pay the running ex-
penses of all her public hospitals. In
each government, whether it be consti-
tutional or autocratic, the army may
with truth be said to direct legislation,
for the Legislatures willingly or un-
willingly vote the appropriations
demanded by the war department.
Even if legislature dares to ques-
tion or protest it is quickly fright
ened into acquiescing by an alarm
ing report from the minister for
war. Thus the military class controls
government and has laws passed to suit
itself, and prevents all attempts to cut
down or to abolish it's powers. 1t in
timidates the state not less really,
though less openly, than the pretorian
guard intimidated old Rome. Kings

sire to preserve peace, but in the next
breath they call for larger funds and
more recruits. Kaisers meet and kiss
each other on both cheeks; they extol
the sweetness of brotherly love; they
attend each others grand maneuvers,
and then they increase the garrisons
along their respective frontiers. A
strange method this for testifying to
their peaceable Intentions!

AN UNLUCKY SEAT.

Tho Eventful History Of tho Senatorial
Position Held by Plumb.
The seat or senatorship held by
Plumb, says the Troy (Kan.) Chief,
was the one originally held by Gen.
Lane. The other senatorship has had
but three incumbents in thirty years
Pomeroy, Ingalls, and PETER. There
seems to have been fate attached to
the place now vacant. Gen. Lane was
one of the first two senators-elect in
Kansas. In the drawing he drew the
short term. Before the expiration of
his term Gov. Carney was elected to the
place; but 1t caused such a row that
Carney was compelled to renounce the
position, and it killed him politically.
Lane was reelected, but committed sui
eide little more than year after en-
tering upon his second term in order to
avoid exposure of dishonest practices
as an officer Of the government.
e. G.. Ross was appointed to fill the
vacancy and was elected by the en-
suing legislature. He betrayed his con-
stituents in the johnson impeachment
case, and for more than twenty years,
dlUuOuBu BULL living, uc HAS Decu ucducr
than Plumb will be twenty years from
now. Alexander Caldwell was elected
to succeed him, but through the in
strumentality of defeated candidates an
investigation was gotten up over al
legged corruption in the election and
Caldwell closed the matter by resign
ing. Robert Crozier, of Leavenworth,
was appointed to the vacancy, but held
the place only until the meeting of the
next legislature. Then Gov. Harvey
was elected for the remainder of the
term, but proved a complete failure
and cut no figure in the next election.
Plumb was chosen to succeed him, and
was in his third term when he was
suddenly stricken down, leaving the
place vacant, to be filed by appoint
ment for the third time. Thus that
seat has been vacated twice by sudden
or violent deaths, has had two flashes
in the pan, one disgrace and one nom
entity, .s.

FRANCE ON HER FEET.

ne BisnascaSAA fsancy Ne Longer RUs-
sible with the Powerful Republic
Some years ago. in the time Of the
old emperor, Bismarck Il said TO have
held that II was tho duty Of Germany TO
herself, completely equipped - she
was, with firm alliances, while tho
French were not fully armed and had
no allies, TO And . pretext for . quarrel
and crush France, taking care TO inAict
disabilities that would prevent her TAX
ing rank again with the foremost ma
tions, writes Murat Halstead in the Cos
mopolitan. His idea was that the
French were implacable, and each gem
Grafton Of them had to have q war with
Germany. He wanted, therefore, to
hasten the inevitable. It is too late to
adopt this policy now, for France is on
her feet, restored to the front rank,
ready with a greater army than she ever
put In the field, and assured of the
friendship Of Russia. The German en-
peror is called to observe the growth Of
socialism, which springs up as popu-
lor antidote for the militarism that has
been almost omnipotent in Germany.
This socialism does not seem to be NOR
bid. It is q natural form of protest
against a governing aristocracy and
devouring army. Now tho leaders of
the social movement arc SO strong they
can afford moderation, and their
speeches are not the shrieks of assas-
sins, but show the calm consideration
of most weighty and urgent affairs.
It seems to the socialists that there
ought to be some way found of settling
the Alsace and Lorraine question with
out war, which however it might re-
suit, would mean the slaughter of hun
dreds of thousands of poor men; and
one speaker was SO bold as to say,
few weeks ago, that in twenty years
the German people would have no need
for royalties and imperialists. This
may be incendiary from the point Of
view Of the occupants of thrones, but 1t
is not irrational. It has been held by
many representatives OF imperialism
that blood letting was the sovereign
remedy for social disorder.
The success Of the Russian loan in
France and the failure to place any of
it in Germany has drawn the French
and Russians closer together. Happily
this may make for peace, for their
united strength Is 80 great Germany
will hardly care to challenge the hostil-
ity of so portentous combination. In
this, indeed, is the only chance for the
preservation of the armed truce that
prevails,

"a YEARS IMMIGRATION.
eAe Numerous Arrivals on Our
Shores in Twelve MOnths
IN the Nations Of Earth Contributing 20
Our Annual Growth--The Coun-
tries Furnishing the Prin-
Opel Increase.

a statement recently issued from the
Exeasury bureau Of statistics shows the
ssum ber Of immigrants of different ma
4Sonalities arrived In the country during
fhe last fiscal year. The whole num-
ber of arrivals was 55,498, against
-ss1, $40 during the fiscal year 1s90-an
increase of 104,277. The number
nrrived last year was greater than in
amy previous year since 1858, when the
total was COS, ,s22, and it has been ex-
4ceeded in only two other years--in
ASST, when the number of arrivals was
Ne9, ,431, and in 1882, when it was 1885,
Do2.
Two things nre to be remarked with
reference to these comparisons: First,
Chat since 1885 the arrivals from Canada
and Mexico have not been included in
the official reports; and, second, that
since 1889 the Chinese have been ex-
cluded by law, and the government
officials have been supposed to know
that there were no arrivals from the
Aowery kingdom. But there has been
nothing to prevent immigration from
Canada and Mexico, and as matter of
fact good many Chinese have found
their way into the country.
How much the totals of late years
would be swellcd If all the immigrants
from these countries were included it is
impossible to say. We know that from
1SS0 to 1884, both years inclusive, the
arrivals from American countries varied
from 5000 to 49,, 200 and that since 1885
they have never much exceeded 5000 as
officially reported. The arrivals from
China fell from an average of perhaps
$4,000 for several years before 1888 to
almost none since that year. It is per-
haps safe to say that $4,000 should be
added to the figures of recent years on
these accounts. But that addition would
still leave last year far behind 1881 and
1882 in the number of arrivals.
The principal increase last year as
compared with the year before was
from the following countries: From
Italy, 23,s54; from Austria Hungary,
14,s61; from Germany, 81, ,122; from Rus
sia, including Poland, 2S,245. The arri-
vals from Italy were IS, 143, which was
more than from any other one country
except Germany. Never until 1880 did
the arrivals from Italy much exceed
5000 year. Since then they have rap
idly increased except in the years 1884,
1885 and 1856. The immigration from
Russia mover reached 5000 a year but
once before 1882. Last year it was
a, 401, and it exceeded $4,000 in each of
the two preceding years. because of
the persecution of the Jews it is likely
to be greater hereafter.

SILVER As A COMMODITY.


The New York Engineering aud
Mining journal says that about two
weeks ago the price Of silver reached
the lowest point ever recorded. The
London quotation was 30 q. per troy
ounce, anu in New York s5.5 cents,
making tho gold value OF the silver In
a dollar piece about 05.7 cents.
The authority quoted above looks
upon silver as purely commodity,
and contends that II Ia Rbsurd To talk OF
"injustioo,n characterization" and
"erlme" In relation TO II. Its value
like that Of all commodities Is governed
by the law Of supply and demand.
Statistics show that its production
during the past ten years has gradually
increased, but 40 has Its contumptIon
both for coinage aud industrial pur.
poses.
