piece of pigs's foot. Its value was less

be easier yet. Whatever speculative

SENSIBLE BUSINESS MEN.

The Atlanta Constitution. which now
advocates free coinage with the same
zeal it urged the policy of protective
tariff only a few years ago, is in the
doleful dumps because the business
men in its circle are not also demanding
free coinage. 1t cannot understand
how Intelligent business men can beso
blind to their own interests and their
impending ruin. In its anxiety to
awaken them it is impelled to revamp
and reassert that old exploded yarn
about SEEDS commission here with En-
gliSh gold from the Bank of England, to
secure by corruption the decentralization
of silver, which the Populist papers
have found so much satisfaction i'll
spreading.
What is strange is that the Constitu-
ton does not take hint from the i'm
perturbability of the business men.
That they are not only not demanding
free coinage, but are everywhere oppos-
ing it, is a fact thai should cause the
Constitution to revise its position and
to start an inquiry whether or 10 1t is
not itself that is wrong and the business
men right in their calmness. No men
are more deeply concerned in the sta
bility and sOundneSs of whatever is used
for currency than are the men who are
carrying on the exchanges of the ma
ton. The security of their business
depends on it. If they felt that gold
value was approaching and depressing
all other values. as the Constitution is
never weary of stating, the country
would hear from them soon, and in no
uncertain tones. If they felt that the
present depression was due to the prac-
teal decentralization of silver, and that
It's reconciliation at our present ratio
would relieve the depression, they
would not remain silent and Indifferent.
On the contrary, if the Constitution
were TO give more of its ear to the talk
of business men and less to that of the
blatant demagOgueS who are simply
Offering catch-yote cries to necessitouS
planters, it would find that the former
look with apprehension on the proposal
to coin silver at the ratio of sixteen to
one, and deprecate that or any other tam
perins with the currency. Ii they could
believe that the Constitution and its fol-
lowing would be successful in getting
free coinage as they want it, that paper
and all the other papers under the de-
fusion would hear from them with en-
phasis. They are silent because they
look on all this free coinage talk and

practicable chatterboxes.

REDEEMED IN sILyER.

The Minneapolis Times cannot under
stand why the secretary of the treasury
does not redeem the silver certificates in
silver dollars, aud wastes good deal of
good space in showing why he should
do so. If the Times uses the term ''siI-
yer certificates" in its literal sense,
then it's remarks are based on a misap-
prehension of fact. Secretary CAR
Isle is redeeming the certificates
when presented in silver precisely &C
cording to their terms. which state that
the holder is entitled to receive the
number Of silver dollars expressed on
the face of the certificate on presenta-
ton. They are not redeemed in gold.
The banks are playing football with
both the silver certificates and the 1890
treasury notes redeemable in coin. The
Eastern banks sort them out from the
greenbacks and national bank notes and
send them West with the purpose of
having these notes Ill the hands of peo-
pie who are clamorous for silver when
the moment of depreciation comes. The
Western banks also sort them out and

Organic Life in Meteors.

M. Moissan has been examining a
meteorite from the Canyon Diablo. He
found in it the element carbon. both in
the forms of graphite and The diamond.
As this element is one most specially
associated with organic life it seems
to show that the raw materials of
organic life must be found elsewhere i'm
the universe than in this globe. But
many will draw different inference
from M. Moissan's discovery. To
them it appears that. though no doubt
the. meteorites tumble down on this
earth after prodigious journey through
space, yet that their origin is to be
sought on this earth. In ancient DAYS
volcanoes On our globe shot fragments
aloft with sufficient speed to carry them
free from the earth's gravitation. Such
missiles have ever since been revolving
around the sun until the CHAPTER of
accidents has brought them back again.

STUDENTS REBEL.
Lively Times at the Indiana State
Normal School at Terre
Haute.
One of the Professors Removed
From His Chair by the
Trustees.

TERRE HAUTE. Ind, June S.-The
trustees of tine Indiana state normal
school today unanimously removed at
once Prof. Arnold Tompkins from the
chair of literature, On the charge
of attacking the methods of the
school. A statement was drawn up and
given to the public, setting forth the
reasons for such step and declaring
that unless the INSTRUMENTATION of the
rebelli0us students cease the board
would have to take necessary steps
to enforce proper respect. This morn
ing when Prof. Tompkins appeared at
the depot the students gave him a
perfect ovation, and when one of
the faculty in class had occa-
sion to mention Prof. Tompkins'
name, there was loud applause.
There was much disorder at the school
all day and tonight the larger part of
nearly one thousand students is in
state of open rebellion. 1T is hard to
predict what tomorrow will bring forth.
An intensely bitter feeling prevails
among the students under the be-
lief that Prof. Tompkins has been
sacrificed by jealous president because
of his popularity. From appearances
tonight there will be exciting scenes to-
morrow at the school, and general
strike is expected. Excited groups of
students are cOngregated tonight Oh the
streets discussing the matter.

NIGHT TURNED INTO DAY.
Grand Pyrotechnic Display Wit
messed by the Infanta.

CHICAGO, June S.-The illumination
and pyrotechnical display at the fair
tonight, in honor of Infanta Eulalia,
drew out the largest nights attendance
yet at Jackson park. The crowd con-
sisted largely of Chicago people, who
took this opportunity of seeing a dual
attraction-a Fourth of July fireworks
display and the White city under the
glare of electric lights. People began
to arrive at the park by 5 o'clock, and
from that hour until there was a
steady influx of humanity through the
gates. The intanta arrived at the fair
shortly after o'clock, accompanied by
Prince Antonio and suite. They were
escorted to President Palmer's reeep-
ton room, where good view OF the ad-
miniStrati0n plaza and grand basin
could be had. Nearly under the win
dow where the royal guests sat the Chi
cage band was stationed, and during
the evening played American and Span
iSh airs. The periStyle, grand canal,
administration, electrical and agricult-
ural buildings were illuminated with
lights. which changed in hue. From
the dome of the electrical building the
huge search lights CLEANED over the
grounds. The display of aquatic novel
ties was particularly grand.
Shortly after the arrival of the prin-
cess the illumination was dimIned. >and
the electrical fountains turned on,
throwing a ruddy glare to the heavens
and making pillar of fire high in the
air. There were displays of flying fish,
floating batteries. huge geysers on the
basin. In the shadow of the AIacMon-
mic statue mammoth bombs were
hurled high in the atmosphere. and, ex-
ploding with loud reports, cast a lurid

M,KINLEY AND NINErY.sIx.

The Republicans of Ohio have again
named Gov. MCKINLEY for their candi
date for governor, but they have really
entered him for the presidential NOM
ination in '96. There has been plenty
of talk of that kind in and out of Ohio.
and the proceedings of this convention
show that the delegates had their eyes
as much on '96as on '93. The speech of
Gov. MCKINLEY, devoted as it almost
wholly was to national questions, seemed
as if designed to lay down the plan of
the presidential campaign and the pre-
paratory moves.
We have not been able to see any
other logical nominee in '96 of that
party but Mr.. MCKINLEY. The impulse
given the party by the platform of 'SS
and the enactment of the bill which
bears the governors name sent the
party SO strongly in the direction of
ultra-protectionISm that the "anchor to
windward" which BLAINE cast and the
visible retreat in the Minneapolis plat
platform could not check it. The party
is irretrievably committed to paternal-
ism, and retreat is impossible. Under
such circumstances the nomination of
Mr.. MCKINLEY to lead the national
party in the next great struggle is logi-
cal and necessary, because, more than
any other man, it is he stands for that
policy.
The Democrats will gladly accept the
challenge, and fight out to final finish
the battle between the, individualism it
stands for and the paternalism of which
Mr.. MCKINLEY is so able and so dis
tnguished representative. We will
watch with greater interest the pre-
liminary contest on the OHIO field this
fall, and which will decide whether MIR.
MCKINLEY will be his party's leader
next year or not. Should he be beaten,
it will of course retire him. Should he
win. even if by reduced majority, he
will certainly be the candidate of MS
party for president in 90.

Fargo. that enterpriSing young city of
North Dakota. is Frustrated by most
terrible calamity. The fire iend has
swept over her and left nearly 5000
people homeless, and twice that number
out of employment. Thus, in mo-
ment nearly half the population are
thrown from the comfortable homes
and prosperous enterprises they have
gained through years of toll into the
world without penny. Men of middle
life and past that who have, after many
years of hard work and economy, ac-
quired enough fortune to support them
i'll their declining years, must begin
where they started in youth.
The city and all its suffering popula-
ton have the sympathy of every city in
the Northwest, and the populations OF
every part of the country will rally to
the relief of the sufferers.
The blow, terrible as it seems to be to
the city. will undoubtedly prove to be
a blessing to it. Fargo is not ruined.
There is a life and enterprise there
which cannot be subdued. and this will
bring I'D from the ruins more magnifi-
cent city than the one destroyed. The
real weight of the calamity falls upon
the people who have lost their homes,
situations and business properties, for
many of these may never be able to re-
cover the lost standing. The city is too
fav0rably located TO fall.
The fire was one of those phenomenal
Visitations that defy all human interior
ence. The very elements seemed to be
ablaze, and the greater the torrent Of
water thrown upon the flames the more
fiercely they rolled up and leapt from
building to building. Such fires rarely
develop in cities of the size of Fargo.
They are more likely to occur in large
cities, where the buildings are high and
massive,

LET THE ARCHES STAND.

The great arches which ornament the
streets are SO very beautiful that it is
pity they are not permanent fixtures.
Some years ago New York erected an
arch like one of these OH a main thor
Oughfare for demonstration, and it at
tracted so much attention that the city
reproduced the temporary structure in
marble. Nothing, not even statue,
presents such striking effect upon
street as all arch. Could our arches
stand in their present magnificent ap-
pearance, they would call to the city
tourists from everywhere to see them;
nothing could advertise the place more
effectually.
The experts who placed the staff upon
the arches say that if the plaster sur
face is well vanished every two or
three years the material will last in
good condition twenty or thirty years.
If this be true, ii seems good plan to
preserve the temporary structures until
the city is able to reproduce some of
them in marble. The triumphal arch,
colonnade and two columns at Smith
park should certainly be preserved in
marble as soon as the city is able to do
SO.
1t is the intention, as understood, to
let the arches stand until next year at
least. If so, they should be vanished
soon, so that the plaster will not be af-
fected by rain. Of course, the structures
are likely to be damaged occasionally
by runaway teams; but such damages
can generally be repaired with small
outlay. However, if two posts were set
at each corner. the runaway teams
would strike the posts instead of the
arches, and the latter would not be
harmed.
With the structures preserved, st.
Paul would come to be known as the
city OF arches. for no other city in
America would have three such mag
nliicent arches. New York is the only
city that has marble arch, and it has
only one. TO reproduce the three in
marble would cost agood deal of money.

send them back East when they have to
send money to keep their balances good.
The probability is that when the
gold in the treasury is drawn down
to about sixty millions, the amount
left of the redemption fund when
the retirement of the greenbacks
was stopped by the act of 1878. the
treasury notes of go will be redeemed
in silver. 1t is incredible that Demo
cratic administration should ever buy
gold to redeem them with. Meantime,
1t Is defensible course that no dis
elimination should be made in the re-
demption of the coin obligations such
as would be made should gold be given
out for greenbacks and silver for treas
ury notes. Even the silyerite ought to
have sense enough to demand that the
silver note should be redeemed III the
best money.

that it was covered with blood. Then

nights sensation in this city is As
sistant Marshal Flett'S story of the
ak found in the Borden mansion, sup
posed to have been used in the Bor-
den murder. During all the long ten
months that have elapsed he has
scrupulously kept the secret that the
probable weapon was found the day the
famous butcheries were committed. His
description of the weapon was so exact,
SO minute, his reputation for veracity
and honorable dealing in police matters
is so we'll known here that two thirds of
the population believe he has really
found the weapon with which the deeds
were committed. Many of Lizzie Bor-
denis friends are much exercised over
the testimony.
