PAY PENSIONS IN SILVER.

n solution of the monetary stringency
which the administration has at hand is
the payment of the pensions in silver
coin. About $%2OO,OOO,OOO a year is now
required to meet this charge upon the
treasury. A very large proportion of the
beneticiaries are entitled t. all the gov
eminent gives them, and it is safe TO say
that there is not one man among them
who would object to receiving every dol
lar in bright, new silver coin.
This thing Of paying cash out of the
reasury for silver bullion and then hold.
ing this bullion in the vaults is one of
the most insiduous methods of contract
ing the currency that could be invented.
Every ounce of this silver ought to be
coined and placed in circulation, and the
plan proposed above would scatter it to
every city, every town, village and ham
let in the country, &c that il would prove
a great blessing and produce not the
slightest bad effect on the "money CEN
ters."
The money sharks are still bowling
for the mythical gold basis, and to mako
money scarce and dear are willing to 90
to any length in contracting the circu.
lating medium. But the pensioners of
the government know that the silver
dollar of this country will purchase just
as much Of all the necessaries Of life as
the gold dollar; that there is not a man
in any part of the country excepting
the sharks) who would not as willingly
accept payment in silver as in gold for
anything he has to sell.
Therefore, as there would be no inter-
national question involved, but simply
an extension Of the medium OF domestic
interchange, it would seem that no bet
ter plan for increasing the volume of
money by s200,OOO,O00 within the next
year could be thought of. 1t would.
moreover, be a most fitting thing for the
old soldiers to come to the rescue of the
nations finances in this way when they
see how schemers and villains are seek
ing to injure and cripple the nation they
saved from ruin and to which they look
for lifelong support.
The volume Of our currency being sc
meagro, as compared with that OF France
and some other nations, it is not surpris
ing that the cash supply is cornered now
and then, and that the people are pinch.
ed for a medium u exchange. 1t is the
case each year when the crops have &c
be moved. AS this coinage for pensions
would release an equal amount of Other
currency for the uso Of importers ant

GRANDEUR OF THE FAIR.

Things, like men, are great. by :com-
p%arison. A man says the fair at Chicago
is the greatest ever held, and that all the
other expositions could be placed at opce
on the ground occupied aby the white
city.
This gives one who is familiar with all
other expositions some notion of the
magnitude of the Chicago fair, but for a
graphic notion of what there is there,
nothing we have seen is go picturesque
and convincing as this by Henry Hay
ME, the correspondent of the Paris
Figaro. a paper which is to France
what the London Times is to England.
Mr.. lIaynie says:
/ have attended all the international
exhibitions that have been held in Eu-
rope during tho past twenty years.
Paris, Antwerp, Barcelona, Moscow,
Brussels and Paris again haye been
closely studied. No journalist, no his
t%oriau, no painter, no architect, no
lecturer can find words or ideas to sul1i-
GENTLY describe, to make one understand,
to appreciate, to SIC this worlds fair.
That is precisely what | cabled the
Figaro last Monday after the inaugural
ceremonies. | also telegraphed that It
would be necessary to invent a new word
to serve the press and the public in ex-
pressing admiration of this exhibition
and of the white city in which it is be.
ing held. Wonderful, magnificent. col
ossal, enormous. beautiful-why such
expressions appear commonplace when
applied to the worlds fair. 1t is
something greater, more noble,
more astonishing, more remarkable,
more wonderful, more marvellous, more
beautiful than all these words combined.
Behindhand, of course. 1t could not be
otherwise. 1t takes a hundred of years
to build ii cathedral. Why shouldn't it
take a long time to construct a city of
palaces? The wonder is when we think
of the weather that has prevailed here
abouts these five months past that any
one of the mighty editices should I've
ready for occupancy. But they all are
and most of them have their exhibition
contents well in place. If this was not
| quite true on Monday last it is SO now,
and whore else in the world has such a
collection OF exhibits ever before been
gathered together? What structures,
what superb decorations, fine columns,
lofty domes, noble facades. The Admin

As soon rs possible after the news of
the Hawaiian revolution came to these
shores. followed by the appearance in the
United States senate by the treaty of
annexation, there came to Washington
an agent of the powerful Sugar trust.
He announced to close friends that the
defeat of the treaty and the killing of the
whole idea of annexation was his pur-
pose. and he wished to know what was
the best way to proceed. The advice
was given. In addition the sugar agent
WAS told TO do his own business in his
own way, and that he should do it on the
merits of his cause in a business light.
In due time the annexation scheme was
furiously attacked in the senate. 1t was
not long thereafter when the Sugar trust
agent was able to say, as he did to inside
friends, that the treaty was already dead;
that il 10 longer had the breath of life in
it.
Mr.. Cleveland was inaugurated.
Among his first acts was to withdraw the
treaty. In due time followed the recent
blizzard in Honolulu.
Cleveland means death to the whole
Sandwich Islands business. This was
his meaning in appointing Mr.. Blount
as commissioner. Under such instruc-
tions he left our shores and landed at
Honolulu. The Sugar trust is pleased &C
what has happened. 1t is hopeful as to
the future " Cor. New York

A tale comes from Russia which sounds
like a romance of middle age barbarism.
General Count Scheremetieff of the cars
bodyguard died suddenly the other day,
and it is given out that he was MUIR
dered by nihilists. His death, it is said,
was decided some time ago by the nihil-
lists executive committee, and one Of its
emissaries managed to substitute a pair
of poisoned gloves for the ones that the
general was wearing and had laid down
for a moment. Not observing the change,
the general put on the poisoned gloves,
and death followed shortly

himself to the order by his uniform

department which really saved it from
being disbanded at a critical moment in
its recent career. Under his manage.
mcnt business methods will obtain in

DELEGATE RAwLINS of Utah has re-
signed his Office because the president
would not accede to his dictum in the
appointment of federal officials in that
territory. This was foolish on the part
of Mr.. Rawlins as he should have known
that the Utah delegates have never en-
joyed any influence at the White House,
and that delegates from the territories
as a rule have had little or nothing to
say in the selection of men for federal
Offices in them. AS a delegate has no
vote in the house presidents usually re-
gard them simply as nuisanccs that
must be tolerated, and use the offices in
their bailiwick as a dumping ground for
pets who cannot be so readily provided
for in any other quarter. M. Cleveland
seems to have treated Utah fairly in the
way of selecting residents Of the terri
tory for the Offices in his gift. In every
instance they were men who were fully
endorsed and well qualified. Mr.. Raw
Inns owed it to his constituency to re-
main at his post, as it is presumed that
he had more important duties to perform
than the mere securing OF offices for his
friends.

DOES IT CURE TOO MUCH?
A Possible Explanation of the W. G.. T. U.
Objection to the Kelley Cure.
For The ThIBUSE.
BY DON HIAWATHA KEDZIE,

BEING the veracious history of the backsliding
of Mr.. MahOney with the compliments of the
author to h Wheeler Wilcox and other poetesses
OF passion. An agony 10 three fits and a spasm'
FIT ONE.
Now Patrick Mahoney, from County Kildare.
Was strongly addicted to rum,
SO much so that folks were heard to declare
That Pat was a bibulous bum.
Sometimes he'd brace up for two months at a
stretch,
And his friends on his conduct would brag;
When all of a sudden this Inflated wretch
Would show up with a beautiful jag.
They'd curse him, they'd coax him, they'd send
him to Jail,
His name he'd attach to the pledge,
But all of these means to reform him would fail;
Ho would go off and get tight rs n wedge.
some said that his weakness was due to disease,
some said twas original sin;
nd while they were tackling such problems AS
these,
Pat was flooding his system with gin.
At length when his friends had forssken him
quite,
And the last of his com rades grew cold.
oOmeDouy suggested a journey 10 dwight.
To try the bi chloride of gold.
Poor Bridget, his faithful, long-sufering wife,
Besought him with many q sob,
To give DIR. Kelley the chance of his life
To do IA magnificent job.
She flashed from her stocking a hundred or so,
That she'd gathered in happier days,
And told him what joy it would give her to know
That her darling had mended his ways.
FIT two.
Six months passed away and .her Patrick re.
turned,
She few to his arms like a bride.
But a look of disgust on his face was discerned,
And his arms rcmSined limp at his side.
Sure never befors had Pat acted like this,
For even when full to the ears,
Iie had always delighted in c%oniugal bliss,
And his ardor had grown with his years,
But his breath Was dcodorized, praised be the
saints;
And his nose wore a temperance nue.;
So Bridget bore up without making complaint.
As she thought it her duty to do.
But through the long hours of that terrible night,
As Pat slept with his face to the wall,
Bitter thoughts of a rival-some charmer at
Dwight
Kept Bridget from sleeping at all.
FIT THREE.
Six months rolled around and Mahoney's reform
Was accomplished beyond any doubt,
Bot his love that had burned for his Bridget so
warm,
Like the fire of his youth had gone out.
At last in II wild burst of grief she implored.
That he'd tell her what made him so cold:
BE iabbers, me darliu'! | AN thiukin'." he
raved,
Its that 1ey'lish bi.chloride of gold"
For women and wine ure so closely allied.
They both have their pleasures and ipains;
No aatidute nature can ever provide,
viii bar one while the other remains.
Then Bridget Mghoney rose up in her might,
And she cursed the bi-chloride of gold;
She cursed DR.. Kelley and his drug store at
Dwight,
And al who his doctrine uphold.
SPAsM.
That night had you entered the door of this fiat,
This fact you'd have had to record:
That Bridget was safe in the arms Of her Pat,
And Pat was as drunk as a lord.

DIR. Vaughn Discovers the Butter Secret.

DIR. Vaughn Discovers the Butter Secret.
DR.. Naughn's greatest discovery is one
Of which the world knows nothing. Aft
er a series Of long Investigations and en-
periments he discovered and developed
the alkaloid which, being created in
cream or milk by churning, produces
butter, and he has been invited to mako
exhibition ut the Worlds fair Of the re-
suits of these experiments. He will take
a bottle or can Of fresh milk, place in it
some Of these alkaloids, and it will i'm
mediately develop butter as perfect and
as healthful as that which comes from
churning. 1t is a discovery in which
there is nothing of a pecuniary value to
DR.. Vaughn, for it is simply a discovery
of n of the mysteries of nature. But
in its wayi it is regarded by scientific men
as quite as important as were the microbe
discoveries Of Pasteur and Virchow.-
