Of the government debt and that already
under MF. Cleveland there is a deficit Of
s50, 100000
Let look a little further into the
matter. Under Mr.. Clsvelandls first adj
ministration Of foHr years, the govern
nent debt was reduced $338, 0l2, 832
Under Dir. Cleveland aud D Democratic
house, the revenues of the government
Were carefully husbanded so that an
enormous surplus was accumulated, not
swithstanding the vast reduction of the

plus accumulated under a previous

Showing the Way.

The policy of showing the way rare
ly pays at sea, particularly if there is
more engine-power in the chasing boat

spicuous.

her pilot at Suez while the Orient line

"Giye my compliments to Captain

Polynesion, ''and tell him I am going

But when the Frenchman reached

The captain laughed as he slipped
the ring back on his little finger, and

keep Jennie until morning, and being
pretty much of surgeon herself, she
set the broken arm and made the

chimney out into the open cir. Look

were placed with one end on this and

A lrishman who served on board a

Officers to haul in tow-line Of con
siderable length that was towing over
