Still. Nj.

II there was any further testimony re-
CURED to prove that II was the fear oi
Democratic tariff legislation. and not
the comparatively petty transactions un-
der the Sherman law that paralyzed the
industries of the country last summer,
and that still holds them threatenly by
the throat. such testimony is TO be had
week after week. in the summing up
of commercial interests by the non par
tisan commercial agencies of the country.
These thoroughly organized bureaus
whose fingers are on the pulse OF trade
in every section of the country speak
without coloring or ezaggeration. The
last issue of Dun's review says:
Trade of all kinds is waiting. There
is no visible Improvement. and on the
whole the Indications are a little less
satisfactory than they were a week ago.
The volume Of business measured b!
clearing house returns outside of New
York shows a decrease OF only L. PEI
cent. compared with last year.. which is
encouraging. but as the statement Gov
ers the payments for the first OF I'll"
month. it may not correctly measure the
volume of new transactions. The re
ports from other cities show a hesitatlng
trade almost everywhere. with a decided
disposition to wait until congress has
acted on the tariff question. Hence the
delay and uncertainty are likely to last
for some weeks.
Elsewhere in the same report we are
told:
The bank reserves. amounting to
$19S. 100000. are the largest ever known,
and there is a feeling that the accumu-
lation of idle money here is somewhat
dangerous to legitimate trade. but as yet
there appears no indication of specula-
tive excitement in products or in stocks.
The increase in circulation during the
month of November was SS.OOo.OOo. al
though there was no demand for add
tional currency in any of the interior
markets. and the evidence is clear that
the supply of currency Is far in excess OF
the needs of business.
Here then is the sltuation-with more
money in the banks than ever has beer
known before-with a largely increased
circulation and with the warehouses full

The state Board of Pharmacy VIII
Demand More Stringent Examinations.
Secretary Bishop, of the state board of
pharmacy, says that important changes
may be made IN the method of examining
candidates. He adds:
The tendency of applicants to cram for
examination by the aid of the quiz COM
pends, has in a measure rendered the
former method of no avail. With purely
written examination man with nothing
but superficial qualifications will often
pass, while the student who possesses
more real knowledge would fail to obtain
the required percentage.
The method of practical examinations
will be used on after December 5. For
certificates as icentiates in pharmacy a
general average of rs per cent will be re-
quired on and after April 3, 1894, and
candidates will be required to conform to
the United States Pharmacopoeia. of 1890,
recently published
The board will demand at least rudi-
mentary knowledge of the principles I'M
derlying the science of chemistry and
practice of pharmacy; sufficient knowl-
edge of mathematics to be able to calcu-
late percentage solutions and convert one
system of weights and measures into
another, and sufficient acquaintance with
Latin to correctly read and interpret pre-
scriptions, well as the knowledge OF
drugs and chemicals.

CRUISE HAD REVENGE.

Looked On With Placid satisfaction at
the Failure of Banks in Helena.
The Sunday Sun tells long story of
Thomas Cruise, the millionaire miner of
Montana, who has many relatives in Wa
terbury 1t tells how during the late
panic, when banks were dropping like au-
tumn leaves, the old man enjoyed such
sweet revenge rs seldom comes in this
world; that when bank presidents and al
legged millionaires were heating the wires
to New York and Chicago for help, he sat
calmly in his banking parlor. unruffied as
an August sky.
1t was good fun for him. He recalled
the days when he went to the same men
and received what farce comedians call the
''horse laugh" Now he had 5000, 900 in
gold in the vaults of his bank, and waited
for them. They waited, too, until the last
minute, until the directors of two leading
Helena banks decided to close the next
morning; and then they came, and got the
same dose of bitter disappointment which
many years ago he had taken in allopathic
doses.
Some people in Helena will point the
tourist to Cruise, and say they remember
him when he couldn't get trusted for d
sack of -four. When these stories are
printed by the Montana newspaper gossips
Cruise will write card of denial, and say he
could always get flour when he wanted it
However that may be, all old timers re-
member this man when he lived alone in O
little cabin in the lower gulch in the
winter and tramped the hills by summer
"a Russian tea Well, I'll be damned y
said an old-time Helena man last year
when he was overlooked in the invitations
to the Cruise mansion. II remember thai
fellow when jack rabbit was high living
for him
They tell story that after Cruise had
located the mine which made him wealthy
and famous he found four miners in pos
Session one day. After questioning them
he learned that they had been hired tc
Jump the claim by three well known
Helena capitalists. Cruise said nothing
more to the hired men, but stuck lonl
six shooter in his boot leg and went ovei
to Helena. He walked down Main stree
until he met the leader of the syndicate
After they had exchanged the time of day
Cruses hand dropped slowly down to the
six shooter and remained there. Il I'M
derstand," he said, THAT there is Job tc
jump me mine, an l just thought I'd
come to town to say that every man who
started it will find Grape on his door before
the Job is finished" Nothing more was
said, and when Cruise returned the next
day the jumpers had lifted their stakes ant
left.
Cruise sold the mine to n syndicate o.
English capitalists for $3.50, 900 cash ant
81 ,250, 900 stock in the new company a
the par value of So share. He neve
ceased kicking himself for selling SC
cheap. He sold his holdings when tn
stock reached $25 a share

One Respect In Which Oklahoma Hotel
Keepers Are Up to Date.
The hotels of Oklahoma up to last fall
were few and far between. Having tried
several with little satisfaction, II party
of hungry ''tenderfeet" was directed by
a commercial traveller to n little place
on corner. The commercial man said
it did not look inviting, but it was clean.
That was an inducement the party had
not heard of in that section, and it
turned in for supper. The dining room
was one in which the family lived. y
folding bed stood in one corner. An old
time bureau was opposite. a box stove
was in the way, and about it were
several old fashioned rockers. a few
family pictures hung from the wall,
with the old, old motto, invoking the
blessing of the powers celestial ON the
household. The party asked for supper
and was told to be seated until the meal
was prepared. Two girls, delicate and
with much WEAKNESS i'll their faces,
spread the table. When the meal was
brought on, they simply said, Supper is
ready" and disappeared.
The party gathered about the meal,
and it was agreeably disappointing,

Joseph Bassett. clam digger, reported to
the police that while returning from a
clam digging expedition yesterday evening

water. Paine could swim but little and in
the dark Bassett lost sight of him. The

CONSCIENCE"
The Theme Upon Which Father Null
cahy spoke at the Convent Last Night.

The Theme Upon Which Father Null
cahy spoke at the Convent Last Night.
Last night at the convent Father Null
cahy continued his series of lectures on
The Soul" Discussion of some of the
leading points of the lecture on Reason
occupied the first part of the hour. An
swers We're given to questions proposed by
some of the listening young ladies. The
reverend lecturer then discoursed on the
faculty of Conscience, using many illus
trations
The points considered with regard to it
were: What is conscience? How does it
act?
"Conscience," said Father Mulcahy, lis
that which determines for us whether an
action is right or wrong; that is, whether
it conforms to the natural law or not.
The natural law is the eternal law of God,
as We apprehend it. Conscience acts in a
twofold manner. Before an action it tells
us if what we are going to do is right or
wrong, at the same time giving to us the
feeling that if it is right we should do it,
and if it is wrong We should not After
the action is completed conscience causes
a feeling, either of satisfaction or remorse,
according as the action was good or bad.
"God gives to everything which he has
created the power of working out its own
destiny It is his will that all creatures
should conform to his eternal law in their
actions as it is God who gives them the
power of performing their actions. When
they do not conform those actions to the
eternal law they, it were. compel him tic
work against himself. In this the malice
of sin consists. The eternal law is un.
changeable. The natural law differs il
different persons. Our apprehension of
the eternal law may be erroneous.
1T is possible for us to labor under the de
fusion of wrong conscience. We car
avoid this danger by carefully reasoning
about our actions, using for our premise:
the moral principles or axioms which Goo
has made known to u.s."
At the request of the young ladies, tn,
subject of Conscience" which they fount
interesting, will be resumed at the mex
lecture.
