UNCLE SANS HONEY.

THE JOURNAL dispatches yesterday
showed an enormous volume of circu-
lating medium, seventeen hundred
thousand millions, or an average of over
SIS per capita. This is all good money,
worth 100 cents on the dollar receivable
for all debts, taxes, customs and dues
of the government. IL should be
noted that little good money will go
great ways in business. We recently
saw a check for $2l dollars that had
thirteen endorsements. 1t paid $2l
thirteen times before it was cashed at
the bank 1t was drawn against. For
the past two months an individual
check would hardly pass from hand to
hand. 1t could not be sent from Salem
to Portland. AS times are improving
the capacity of money to pay deLts is
increasing. or course, Populisls will
deny the correctness of the above gov.
ernment statistics, and refuse to believe
In any statistics but their own. Uncle
Sam has issued the above amount of
money, aud IL Is somewhere la the pos.
session of bis subjects. 10 what extent
they Will make good use Of 1t rests with
themselves.

an AUTUMN CYCLONE.

The theory that cyclones can only
occur in hot weather is nearly exploded.
Toe Louisiana cyclone has surpassed
all Others in extent cf its fatality and
destruction, and has come at time of
year when the heated term cannot be
said to have brought it about.
The question arises, are cyclones grow
ing more frequent in occurrence, and
are they to be heard from at ali times
Of the year? 1t is certain that they are
heard of more often than formerly, aud
are attended with greater fatality.
This may be due to the fact that popu-
lation is growing in density and facili-
ties for gathering news are much more
perfect.
THE JOURNAL had the only com
plete telegraphic account of this great
storm aud had IL before any other
newspaper in the city. Further details
of the great storm are given today.

an exceptionally grand display, justi-
flying "bit of blow" in the form of

that "thers are two bites to a cherry il

pies are shown weighing 8 pounds
pears weighing over pounds, cherries
measuring 81 inches in circumference,
aud peaches considerably larger than
cricket balls. The apples are unexcell-
ed for size, fineness, flavor and keeping
properties. The evaporation of apples,
peaches, and apricots is largely followed
in the state, the use of this form of pre-
served fruits increasing by leaps and
bounds throughout the United States.

The Queens secret Gnard.

The queen of England is closely
guarded by detectives every moment
of her life When she proposes to
ride abroad, the information and the
probable route that she will take are
at once announced to her special police
by the equery on duty, and at certain
points all along theroad that she will
travel police are stationed and the
roads carefully watched. All kinds of
queer people, lunatics, craIks and ad-
venturers seek to gain her majesty's
attention, so that the utmost precau.
ton is necessary in order to preserve
her from constant annoyance if not
from actual danger. San Francisco

An Eclipse and a Poem.

Apparently the usually accepted
epoch at which Archilochus, the
great satirist of Paros, fioulished
must be brought down about half a
century. In one of the fragments
which alone remain of the works ad.
mired by Horace, he speaks of Zeus
turning midday into night, a phe-
nomenon so remarkable that he
thinks no one ought afterward to be
surprised at anythlng-not even if
dolphins and land animals should
change places. An Italian astrono-
mer. Professor 8illosevlch of Rome,
has recently re-examined the ques-
ton of explaining this by the occur
renee of a total eclipse of the sun in
the locality where Archilochus resid-
ed, with the result that only one in
the seventh century before Christ
will perfectly correspond with the
circumstances. This was the eclipse
of April 6, B. C. 64S, which was to-
tai over Thasos about 10 o'clock in
the morning, and thus fixes the date
of the poem.-Notes and Queries.

Heroism on the Stage.

''If you knew what agony ballet
girls suffer on account of their feet,
you would wonder how they are ever
able to smile at an audience in the
way they do, continued the doctor.
THE premieres, if they appear twice
the same evening, invariably have a
chiropodist back of the scenes to
attend them between acts. 1t is
peculiar, but ballet girls get corns
under their great toenails. This of
course would prevent them from
dancing, but we have a way of treat
ing such things. We split the toe
nail down the center and place cot
ton between this and the corn. This

TWO INQUESTS.

The Death of Mrs. Woodward-Freder-

Coroner Gates held an inquest yester-
day over the remains of Mrs. Eugenie
s. Woodward, who was accidentally
burned to death at Sierra Madre on the
previous day.
The horrible accident occurred in the
morning, while Mrs. Woodward was
preparing breakfast, during which a
coal-oil stove was overturned. The oil
from the stove Immediately caught fire,
which communicated to the unfortu-
nate lady's clothing. Her screams
brought her husband to her assistance,
who wrapped the bed clothing about
her and succeeded in checking the
flames. Medical aid was summoned,
but the suffering woman died in few
hours.
The remains were brought to this city
yesterday and the funeral will take
place this afternoon at O'Clock from
$40 South Hill street.
Deceased was the wife of M. F. Wood
ward, well known in this city.

recently from Riverside, died suddenly
