CURRENCY SCARCE.
Money Brokers Getting as High Al
31-2 Per Cent for Big Lots.

Money Brokers Getting as High as
3 1-2 Per Cent for Big Lots.
NEW YORK, Aug. S.-Aside from the
meeting of congress and its possible ac-
ton on the silver question, together
with its probable effect on business in
general and the stock market in partic-
ular, the principal subject of discussion
during the day was the continued
scarcity of all forms of currency notes
and specie. In fact, according to we'll
informed bankers, that was in some re-
spects the most serious question of the
day, although many of them were of
the opinion that the difficulty would
right itself in few days. Others said
that the scarcity would not be relieved
until confidence was restored, and that
would not be until congress has repealed
the silver purchase clause of the Sher-
man law.
Money brokers were paying as high as
12 to g per cent for currency, and
were getting as high as 8 1-2 for it in
big lots. Their offices were crowded all
day, and they were evidently doing
big business. These money brokers are
using every expedient to get currency
out of the banks and the subtreasury.
They are buying up all the drafts on the
treasury, such as pension checks, post
Office drafts. mint checks, etc., as well
as big bills.

STILL INCREASING,
TREASURY GOLD CONTINUES TO
PILE UP.

Over Two Million Dollars FREQ Gold
Now In the Treasury-BiG Premium
Being Paid at New York For Small
Currency.
WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-The gold in
the treasury is daily increasing. Itnow
stands $102, POI, 395, or So, 291 1896 above
the reserve.
The net balance of the treasury, how
ever, from the treasurer's statement,
shows decrease, attributed largely to
a falling off in custom receipts. This
balance is $l5,9s9, 723 The subsidiary
silver in the treasury, made up of halves,
quarters and dimes, amounts to $12,-
sos. 600.
So far this month the receipts in
round figures amount to $4,000, 600, and
the expenditures to $7,75O, coo, OF which
IS, coo, 600 have been paid on the pension
account. These largeexrenditures have
eaten into the net balance and re-
duced it.
The fact that custom receipts are
falling off. while it effects the govern
ment revenue from that source, has
an opposite bearing on the general
prosperity of the country, as it shows
that less money is being expended
abroad for imported merchandise.
The issue of standard silver dollars
from the mints and the treasury Offices
during the week ended Aug. was
81, ,274, $40; for the corresponding week
of last week, $452,2 ,225. Fractional
silver coin for the month of July was
$762, 44S, and from the 1st to the 9Th
inst. 4103. .6O4.

piotnre. nnd rheir Frames.

Etchings are offered at such reduc-
ton it is suspected that there is truth
in thestatement that their popularity
is waning and that the coming black
and white is the mezzotint. Persons
who own really good etchings need
not, however, prize them the less.
Such have a permanent value. The
silver and bronze beading of frames
has crept from the inside near the
picture to the outside. The framing
of pictures has come to be recognized
as almost as artistic a part as the
picture itself. The best frames for
black and whites are of wood stained
to harmonic with the tones Of the
picture. Avoid letting the frames
tell any part of the story. Every
body shuddered over the bell"
frames of the Angelus craze, and the
spectacle of horses apparently lean
ing out from picture to eat actual
corn fitted in tin trough along the
edge of the frame is not an artistic
one.-New York Times.

Rather and BlucksnaIte Fight.

Judge ]. b. Bowman, who lives
near Tallsboro, gave your CORE
spondent an account of the won
derful snake fight that he recently
witnessed. He was going through a
strip of woodland on his way to his
wheatfield, when his attention was
attracted by peculiar noise near his
pathway. Looking in the direction
whence the sound proceeded, he OBJ
served a blacksnale and rattle
snake twined together in deadly COM
bat. The blacksnake was wound
about its venomous enemy, endeav-
Oring to squeeze the life out of him.
The judge became an eager spectator
of the novel combat. Ever and anon
the rattlesnake would bite the black
snake. Then a remarkable thing
would occur.
The blacksnake, as soon as bitten,
would uncoil himself, dart for a small
bush and bite off one of the leaves.
He would moisten it in his mouth,
press out the juice, apply it to the
bitten place and then return to his
enemy again. This was repeated sew
eral times until finally the black
snake squeezed the life out Of the
rattler.
Judge Bowman says he never kills
blacksnakes. He says it is their mis-
sion, and one they greatly enjoy, to
destroy all the venomous serpents
they can find. The judge has pet
blacksnake that stays in his barn and
keeps away all the rats and mice

A Well Earned Testimonial

The captain, chief engineer, chief
officer and carpenter Of the steamer
Prodano have been presented with a
testimonial by owners and under
writer's. The steamer was going from
Cape Town to Australia with $4,000
cases of petroleum and 300 kegs OF
gunpowder. When 900 miles from
land, fire broke out in the cross
bunker, which was separated from
the cargo space by wooden bulk

ter and his officers, instead of aban-
doning the vessel, went down to the
bunkers and at the risk of their lives
got the burning coal out.
