1T has long been taken as an estab-
lished fact that the Oldest city in the
United States was ST. Augustine, Fla,
which was founded in 1865. Recently
discovered papers, however, go to over
throw this proud claim of antiquity,
and to show that we have city which
is older than st. Augustine by twelve
years. This ancient place is Tucson,
Afiz. An old Spanish land grant has
been unearthed there which hears the

Of the city a certain parcel of land in
the neighborhood. If this document
prove authentic it will establish Tue

If feet or hands are frost bitten keep
away from the fire, but thaw them out
in moderately warm room, by apply
ing snow or very cold water. When
the frost is entirely out, soak for an
hour in water as hot as can be borne,
containing all the powdered alum it

The catalogue of the West Virginia
University for the current year is de-
tailed and complete and will be of inter-
est to parents and to those young men
anxious for university education. who
cannot afford a course in any of the
great institutions Of the East.
Our own University is good enough
and thorough enough in its curriculum
to satisfy any student who knows what
he wants. Yale and Harvard viii!
turn ont no more thoroughly educated
men than the West Virginia University.
It's professors taken as whole are as
competent as the faculty of any univer-
sity in the country, and its list OF
studies covers every important branch
OF scholarship.
In addition to this the facilities OF the
institution are most excellent, while its
location is probably the finest in the
country.
With such an institution close at hand
West Virginia parents have no reason
to patronize a foreign university.

80 sIoux ClTY COLLAPsE.

One Of the most complete and thor
ough boom collapses on record is that
of Sioux City, Ia, which though having
a population Of only IS, 900, has managed
to burst to the tune Of S55, 900, 900, held
mostly in the East. Almost the whole
amount Is as good as lost. The securi-
ties have been found, when too late, to
be utterly worthless. About 500 banks
and some 1000 individuals are involved
In the general smash.
''The hotels of the city," says dis
patch, "have at present the appearance
Of bankers convention, so large is the
number Of bank officers from nearly
every State of the Union, visiting the
scene Of the collapse to ascertain If
there is any possible way to secure
their notes"
1t appears that "the Sioux syndicate"
is responsible for the magnificent bub-
bic which has so magniflcently burst,
The syndicate" was composed of four
hustling citizens. And the story goes
They organized all sorts of banks, in
vestment companies, trust companies, IL
nance companies, cable companies, cleo
trio companies, manufacturing companies,
etc. Sioux City has no use for a cable,
electric or elevated railroad, but it has g
cable railroad costing $3.50, 900; an electric
railroad costing 81, 900, 900, and an elevated
railroad costing Sl,000,O0s. These roads
cannot be expected TO pay running ex-
penSes for twenty years The city has
city hall costing S750,0O0, and school
house costing $50, 600. In the last two
years some So fine brick and stone build
inVs have been constructed at an average
cost Of 500, 900 each. or about $40 zoo, 600
in all. OF course there have been
sales OF lots. For miles about
the city the country has been brought
within the city limits ana subdivided.
Sioux City takes in now as much territory
as Chicago. But the lots are generally I'M
inhabited. They have been mOrtgaged for
from three 70 ten times their value and the
mortgages have been sold 70 guileless in
vestors. The banks OF New York and New
England have been worst caught in these
wiles and their consequences.
The Union Loau and Trust Company,
with 81, 600, 600 of capital, organized by the
syndicate, was the handspring OF the
boom. Itfioated vast amountOf paper IN
the Eastern and Middle States. II guar
anteedn the notes of the members OF the
syndicate for IS, $4,000 and for others TO
the extent OF S6,40O,0OO. Its liabilities,
when it failed, aggregated $S,0O0,OOO.

everything in Sioux City toppled over

me FINANCIAL CoLLAPsE.

There is a general and comprehensive
sitting and straightening-Out process
going on in banking and business cir
cles ia the West.
The cause. in a word, is stringency OF
the money market.
These numerous failures may or may
not be a good thing for the country's
business. Certain It is that no solid
business concern will be hurt by them,
yet many a legitimate house has been
forced TO the wall by the general call
ing In Of loans that has made credit al
most an impOssibility.
The general collapse marks the trail
OF that vsnomous financial serpent, the
sherman Silver Purchase Act, which
has practically limited the amount OF
money in the country to the amount Of
gold we have, thus forcing banks to call
In every outstanding dollar to preserve
themselves.
This is one piece of Republican fl
nancial legislation that cannot be too
quickly repealed, and in this connec-
ton President CLEvELAND's official no.
tlfcatiOn to the country, made public
this morning, that he will call Congress
in extra session early In September, or
sooner, If necessary, for the purpose of
repeating the Sherman law, is encour-
aging.
The Presidents utterance goes
straight to the point and presents the
financial situation to the country at a
glance and so clearly that none can
mistake it.
As be foreibly points out, until the
sherman Act is repealed much depends
upon business men themselves, who
have nothing to fear so long as they re-
main calm and maintain confidence.

The Chamber OF Commerce meeting
last night failed to muster the total
guarantee necessary to bring the great

came so near doing it that 1t would be a
great pity to give up the splendid Co.

the effort TO raise the guarantee fund
through a committee instead Of attempt
ing to raise 1t all at one fell swoop oy
unsolicited subscriptions, there Is no
doubt, whatever, Of it's success. the
fact that the number Of subscribers at
