MoRToN's CoNUNDRUM.
The Secretary Propounds a Good
One on Silver.

The Secretary Propounds a Good
One on Silver.
WASHINGTON, July 2.-The Post to-
morrow will print a letter written by
Secretary Morton to Hon. j. F. Lee, of
Manhattan, Kan, under date of June
II. on the silver question. Among other
things the secretary says: 1.-THE con-
tlhued purchase of 100000 ounces
OF silver per month is very de-
bllltating to the gold reserve in the
treasury of the United States. Plainly
stated in wild Western way, the ques-
ton now is which will hold out the
longest, the gold of the United States
or the silver of the whole world. 1t
would be a good object lesson in money
fallacies if the government could legally
tender 41213-grain silver dollars in pay
buys each month under the compulsory
provisions of the Sherman act.
The giving of an ounce of silvef
bullion, which contains $50 grains or
silver, for dollar, which contains only
1925 grains of silver, would soon teach
the advocates of fiat money that the
stamp of the government is merely
certitication OF the weight and fineness
OF the coin and not an enhancement of
the metal it contains. Il
IF the government can, by coinage,
create an artificial value of IS cents to
the ounce in silver, why cannot the.
government create 100 cents value in
any kind of metal that it may coin and
stamp one dOllar?'''

record that Newfoundland had st.
Patrick to drive the snakes off, either.
'rhere is plenty of game III New
foundland, but not a reptile of any
kind-snake, toad, frog, lizard, or even
turtle. Another queer thing about the
province is that while some wild animals
are abundant there, no one ever saw
squirrel, porcUpine, mouse or lynx auy-
where within It's boundaries. This is
all the more singular because the ad-
joining provinces of Nova Scotia and
Cape Breton have all of these animals
and many kinds of snakes and other
reptiles On the other hand the Arctic
hare is abundant in Newfoundland but
is not found in Nova Scotia or Cape
Breton. The summer nights of Nova
Scotia are made brilliant by frefiies,

BERLIN. July Sit is understood
here that the United States legations in
Europe have been instructed to study
and report on existing systems of taxa
ton in order that the Washington gov
eminent may select the least oppressive
and offensive to cover the deficit
which will result from the reform
of the tariff. The member Of
the Berlin legation who is examln-
ing the PrusSian system is inclined to
favor the adoption in the United States
of a tax similar to the direct property
tax, recently approved by the landtag.
The weather. classes in Prussia, he
says, do not complain bitterly of the
new tax and the poorer people consider
it equitable. The rich men in America,
however, he thinks would resist stub
bornly the introduction of the tax.

Salvation Army barracks last evening
He took his child, which was present,
and rolled it and himself in the street
gutter. The child was taken from him,
as it was feared he would do it bodily
harm. He then went out and sat down
in the middle of the street saying he
was too sinful to assume any other atti-
tude. He advised everybody to put on
sackc.oth and ashes, and humble HIM
self before the Lord. The police were
finally notified of his action, and he
was taken to the East side police sta
ton and from there taken to the county
jail. Williamson will probably be
brought before the probate court this

A KANSAS HERO.

In the spring Of 1868, when the
hostile Indians got possession of the en-
tire overland stage route through
Kansas, killing most of the station men
and running off the company stock,
stage which left Ellsworth for the
West was attacked about o'clock in
the afternoon between stations. The
passengers numbered fve-four men
and boy sixteen years old named
George Lee. One of the men had been
wounded in the right arm a few days
before and was practically helpless.
The second was a soldier and the re-
naming two were Eastern men who
were out there inspecting the country
with view to purchasing land for a.
ranch, says the n Y. World.
The Indians to the number Of four
teen were hidden in a, dry gulch and all
were mounted as they swarmed out
and attacked the stage. The boy was
with the driver and he was armed with
a light Winchester rife. The driver
would take no part in the affair, as his
horses at once became alarmed and ran
away. He cared not how fast they
went, but they must be kept in the
road. At the very first alarm the
wounded man and the land-seelers
crouched down in the stage, too
frightened to fire shot, but the soldier
was Of better metal. There were two
Winchesters and three revolvers in the
stage and he passed one revolver up to
the boy and asked his help to beat off
the yelling demons. Young Lee was,
perhaps, cooler than the soldier. He
had not been born in the West and
brought up upon the plains for Roth-
ing. lie had already fired two shots,
one of which killed pony, before the
soldier passed up the revolver.
