The hest authorities on finance
point to the fact that of all European
countries France is the only one
that seems to be AT all at ease in a
financial way, and to the further fact
that France has a gold currency Of
$900,900,000,or about $24 per capita;
silver coinage of about $7OO,00O,-
600, or SlS per capita, and a paper
currency based on these of $780,
100000, or Sl6.53 per capita of the
entire population. The total per
capita circulating medium of France
is about 5000 per head, and the re-
suit of this apparent plethora of
money in that country is that she
lifted the Bank of England out dur
ing the Barring Bros excitement, and
is on her financial feet in better shape
than any civilized nation on the
globe, the United States not ex-
cepted. And yet there are a portion
of the people of the United States
who seem to have holy horror of
the government issuing too much
money.

The irrigation convention will
meet at Las Vegas, N. NJ, on the 9th
of March, 1892. The importance of
this assemblage of the southwest can
not be exaggerated. Ell Paso, aside
from geographical lines, is as much a
portion of New Mexico as Las Cru
ces. The relations existing between
El Paso and New Mexico are so inti-
mate, the industrial interest of both
are so closely allied, that the absence
of an III Paso delegation from the
Las Vegas conveption would be
looked upon as striking want of
enterprise and business foresight. 1t
is to be hoped that Mayor Capel will
appoint delegation to the irrigation
convention that will reflect credit
upon this city.-El Paso Bullion.

and O'Clock the hacks were kept
busy conveying the young men and

ROBBED BY A GANG OF THUGS.
Queer Story Told by CASTOR De Leon When
Arraigned on a Charge Of Vagrancy.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
BROOKLYN, N. Y, Jan. "a detected,
forlorn-lookinR individual. bearing the
aristocratic name of CASTOR de Leon. was
arraigned in the Lee-avenue court, to-day,
on the charge of vagrancy. The man tells
a remarkable tale. About two months ago:
he says, he left Rio Janelro, Brazil, for
this country to collect from Drexel, Nor
gan a. Co. 81. 100 deposited there TO his
credit. He stopped in Havana on his way
here and claims that while in that city he
was beaten and robbed by gang of thugs
of all his ready cash and the papers which
proved his identity. On his arrival here
he went to Drexel, Morgan a. Co.,
but they would do nothing for him,
he declared, unless he produced the neces-
sary documents to prove his claim. His
trunks and valuables. he says. are all at
the custom house. but he cannot get them,
having been robbed of the checks in
Havana. He does not know what to do.
He was sore from head TO foot, haviRg
walked the streets hoping to meet some one
had gone without food and he has not
slept In bed since his arrival in this city.
He was so sincere in his story that the
police are inclined to place some credence
IN his tale.
AT the office of Drexel, Morgan q Co. it
was stated that the man had called there
after the money, but. of course they could
not give 1T to him without positive proof
that he was the man he claimed to be.
The police and custom house officials are
investigating the story.

"DIAMOND" RAN AMUCK.
A Mammoth Elephant in Winter Quarters
Terrorizes an Entire ksnsgerie.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.


PERU. Ind, Jan. 9.-An indescribable
scene of confusion, coupled with tremen
dous uproar, was the one last evening at the
winter quarters of Wallace & Co.'s circus.
near this city. The cause of the trouble
lay in the fact that Diamond" the man.
moth elephant. broke loose from his fasten-
inRs and, in his mad fury, started out to
do all the damage that he could. The first
thing he met was Mack" the pet bull
dog of the circus. and who has
been an inseparabIe companion of his
for the past five years. He caught him on
his tusks and with one toss threw him up
and through the sky-light of the building.
some forty feet distant. The dog landed
ran away. The next victim of the animals
fury was the pet horse 'Davy," and who
also has been his constant attendant for
the years mentioned. He impaled him
with his tusks, tossing him up and down
and once throwing him clear across the
sixty foot building. The inside presented
by this time the appearance of q
slaughter-house. He next attempted to
break down the barriers leading to the
other elephants, and In SO doing badly
damaged the building. Keeper Sweeney
had by this time arrived on the scene, and
with the assistance of some twenty other
men and the liberal use of irons. spears
and clubs managed to drive the brute back
and reclaim him. "Diamond' is the largest
elephant in the herd, and one of prodig-
ious strength. This is the first time he has
ever done anything of this kind.

His Bargain with the Gambler-He Only Had
"Two Little Pair" but They We're all

They tell story of Methodist minister
out In Seattle who was endeavoring to
raise money for new church. After he
had drained the resources of every member
of his church and had passed the subscrip-
tion-book among ell the merchants of the
city. the thought struck HIM of seeking
donations among the lower strata of So
clety-the saloon men and gamblers. After
having secured about $500 from the liquor
dealers he proceeded to invade the ranks
Of the card-dealers. The first man he
struck was Billy Morgan, keeper of the
most notorious joint in Seattle.

Morgan was. of course, astonished at be-
ing approached by man of the cloth. but
he was a good-natured sort of . chap and
he treated the preacher politely. The lat
ter INDUCED in few urgent arguments
for donation, when the gambler cut him
short with this proposition:
''PIl tell you what I'll do Mr.. Franklin.
you bear the record of being q convert
yourself from our profession--am right"
The minister Acknowledged that he once
dealt on tho finest layout in San Fran
CISCO.
WELL" continued Morgan. lyon haven't
forgotten the difference between q king
full and q bob-taIl flush, and you know
enough yet to grease the board when your
ante comes round. Now, FL make you this
bargain: You and will play o game OF
old-fashioned draw. PHI give you 500 in
chips to start with. For every dollar you
win I'll give you five-dollar bill: if you
lose every thing. you don't get q cent. Is it
q got" The good Mr.. Franklin was stumped.
He did want that money SO badly, and if he
won it all it meant $500 for tho new Column
bia-avenue Church. Then the question
presented itself, Would this be gamblingi
Certainly not; he would be hazarding moth
ing except his luck. If he won the church
would get $500; il he lost the church would
not be ont q cent.
Its agreed" he said, and Morgan led
the way to o nelghboring hotel. as il would
never do to have the minister seen going up
into his rooms. The cards and q box of
chips were brought out and spread on the
table. Morgan counted out twenty whites,
ten reds and three blues to the minister.

seventh annual session in this city to-day.
There were about four hundred land and
water fowls on exhibition that were judged
above the average. The principal exhibit
ers were from North Vernon. Shelbyville.
Stones Crossing and Westland. The two
nal and out-of- the-ord;nary exhibits
were two pairs of crested white ducks and
Indian game chickens. The former are
pure white. with bright orange beaks and
legs with q snow-white top-knot or crest
shaped like a ball and about three inches
in diameter. The latter is the latest i'm
portatlon in fancy poultry from Europe.
They are natives from Cornell, England,
and have been in this country but one
year. They are tall and their plumage is
glossy black. each feather being laced with
brown. The next meeting of the associa-

By courtesy the preacher dealt first, and,
from the look which Morgan betrayed on
his face. he must have imagined for a min
