Silver is knocked out. q Dictator Cleve-
land has carried his point. But the battle
is not yet ended. This is country where
no dictator can long hold the reins OF
government. The people will now have
voice in the matter and they,will speak
in no uncertain terms. Senators and re-
presentatives who sold out to Cleveland
for pie will have hard work to square
themselves with their constituents. Many
Of them have sounded their political
death knells. Reconciliation Of silver
will be the issue now before the people.
1t will be the battle cry in every campa-
ign. And as there is God in Israel it
will win. The money power is having it's
day now and the people are being ground
under the heel OF oppression, but a day
Of retribution is at hand. Right will
prevail over might" and. oppression will
be downed. The friends Of silver and OF
the people are by no. means discouraged.
The battle will be renewed in the next
Congress. In fact the ink was not yet
dry on Grovsr Cleyeland's signature to
the repeal bill before Senator Stewart,
that grand old. silver standard bearer,
had introduced in the Senate new bill
for the free and unlimited coinage Of
silver.

Imprisoncd In a rrunk.

An employe of the Western of France
Railway company lately hit upon a
highly original plan for preventing his
wife from gadding about in way of
which he disapproves. Before going
to his daily duty, NJ. Lehuby, for such
is his name, has been in the habit of
locking his wife up in a large trunk.
By an ingenious contrivance the lid
was made so that it could be raised u
few inches for the admission of air.
The most remarkable thing, perhaps,
in remarkable case is the fact that
the wife, who acknowledged that her
husband had the strongest grounds for
being dissatisfied with her conduct,
seems to have been q consenting party
to her enforced seclusion. Neverthc-
less, the facts becoming known, pro-
ceedings were instituted by the police
authorities and the correctional trib-
unal of Louviers condemned NJ. Lehuby
to pay fine of fifty francs.

Generally speaking, says II. Nutsu
in the Vegetarian, u meat diet is not
nearly so popular in the land of the
far east as in England. There arc still
many people, especially in the interior
parts of Japan, who have never tasted
any animal food in their lives and look
upon it with horror, while great
many conservative women do not
touch it, even at the present day.
Moreover, animal food is expensive,
even in Japan, and is therefore con-
sidered q luxury which is quite out Of
the reach of the poor. During the
whole Of the year 1889 only s4,71 bulls
and cows were killed in Japan to sup
ply meat for 40,00O,0OO people, and 1t
is worthy OF note that there were
1,O21, SOB bulls and cows in the country
during that ycnr, while the numbcr'of
the slaughtered probably included
many animals which were not sluin
for supplying human food.
