The Milwaukee soldiers home is
the third largest in the nation, having
2,27o minutes. The amount of pen.
sions drawn by these inmates the past
year is Sl96, 778.ls. AT the same time
the cost to the government of sup
porting these inmates is 5000, 3l2.58.
The amount of pensions and the cost
of supporting these inmates at the
home make the total cost to the gov
eminent S503, 090.76, or a little over
1920 per capita. Surely our veterans
are not badly cared for.

Frewen's Warning.

New YoRK. My. IA Wash
ircton spec al to a morning paper
gives an interview with Norton
Frewep, the E1glish bimetallist,
who i. now gaest of one of the
members of the British legation.
Mr. Frewen say "If the price Of
silver bullion falls, as | expect, 1t
will be the cause that drags down
the exchange rates with the far east,
which are already at the swapping
point, and we shall have a panic in
London before the new year, a
panic you will feel in every corner
of this continent
"Then you don't father the view
that the repeal Of the act will bring
buying orders from London to
Wall street"
ono. London will be seller for
a long time to come. We are in
great trouble in Australia and
India. Our export trade with
Cnina, Singapore and South
America is already paralyzed by the
fall in the rate Of silver ex 'hange.
London has been praying that you
would stop your silver purchases,
thinking that then Your stock
market may recover SO that she may
send you home your securities
realized at higher prices We are
in no position to bay. The great
Eaglish manufacturing fortunes
rave suffered terribly. Whoa we,
in England, have financial troubles
times are bad and prices are de.
pressed so tina your exports to
Ebgland fall eff snd our imports re.
main the same. Gold leaves you.
To borrow gold in England and to
bring it here inevitably tnrns the
balance of trade agsins. this country.
1t would turn it in the face even of
great harvest. SO that the gold
begins to flow back again on the
nearest ship.
"Austria is trying to get gold and
hold it in this way, w eckherie,
her foance minister is an intelli-
gent man, but knows nothing what
soever about the theory of the
foreign exchanges. Mr.. Goschen
told him three years since that
while Austria could borrow gold
she could never keep it except under
lock and key, but gold is already at
premium in the dual monarchy.
[ alock the treasury doors and it
will disappear at once and you here
will discover also that with wages
and prices in England falling by
leaps aud bounds to try to bring
British gold here is merely to pour
water in seive."

The introduction in our cities OF apartment

of them lifted his hat to q lady whom they

Mrs Bissell of course, gave up her teaching
upon her marriage, but at her home here
she has always had a musical circle
round her, and at the capital she will
form a feature of its musical as we'll as
Of its Official society. She has a fine
voice. and she has sung at a number Of enter
tainments for charity. Her home here is a fine
old-fashioned brick residence oftwo stories and
a mansard roof. There is a tower in the
middle of the front. and this forms

eral Bissell bought 1t a couple of years ago, and
he has furnished it in solid. substantial way
which harmoniZes with its big rooms and its
old-fashiOned character. Since he has been in
it he and Mrs. Bissell have given many quiet
little parties and number of musicales and
she has shown herself a most entertaining and
accomplished hostess.
am told here, in fact. that Mr. Bssell would
never have been Postmaster General had it not
been for his wife. II is said that Cleveland
offered him cabinet position eight years ago.
but he refused it. THIS was before he had met
his fate. With his marriage his tastes have
changed. and he will do anything to oblige his
wife. She has naturally great social ambitions.
and when President Cleveland gave her the
chance to CRAFTY these in making her husband
a cabinet minister Mr.. Bissell accepted the
place. Whether this story of Mrs. Bisselrs
persuasive powers is true not. it is an inter-
esting one, and l give it Cor what it is worth.

for neighbor in Ohio testy old fellow who
ran u small truck farm. lie WIS homes. and up
right and NJ. HAYES held hiIa in high esteem
notwithstanding his lack of the social amenities
and respect for persons. On one of his visits to
Ohio during the presidency las passed the old
mans farm and found him planting potatoes
In a patch near the road. The President being
somewhat OF a farmer himself, noticed some
popularity in his neiShbor's style of planting,
and. after a few minutes chat he called his
attention to it and the old man argued the point
a while
after ALL" concluded the President. 81
don't think you are doing IL as il should be
done for the best results"
The old farmer rested his arm on the fence
and looked steadily at Mr. HAYES.
They ain't neither one Of US, he said,
''above havin' fault found with us, but ef you
Jest go on Presideaua the United States your
way an / go on plantin' pertaters my way I
guess We won't be no wuss of in the end"

What lights of fancy! Chaucer takes the lead
From Canterbury with his pilgrim band,
Whom Spenser and the Farie Queene outspeed
To watt a greeting from the spirit land.
Then rare Ben Jonson, Briton to the core,
And Doughty Drayton glide upon the stage,
With Cowley, Congreve, Dryden, dust no more,
Their signets stampt upon the breathing page.

Before accoutered chiefs and courtiers proud,
The kings Of letters realm throughout all time.
And as one dreams and ponders all these things,
chid's small voice comes CHEEKY TO the ear,
And Tiny Tim Christmas carol sings
As on the grave of Dickens falls tear.
No sculptured urn above the sacred dust,
No taoature to chronicle his fame;
But there amid the centuries crumbling rust
simple slab to mark the wel-loved name.
Above this Thackeray's bust in radiance seen
Tells truer than tall monuments Of stone
That memory keeps his mighty image green
In love and tender reverence alone.

And ripened boughs abroad their brown leaves
