TO the LIGHT:
The rain that set in Friday, the
oath, was the hardest known fol-
wears. At times it was a genuine
water fall and in many places the
streets and sidewalks were flooded.
The country around Monterey was
for hours one sheet of water. 1t
has continued raining more or less
every day since. This rain has eX-
tended to the coast along the Gulf
road, and from Laredo to the City
of Mexico on the Mexican National
railway, and from Eagle Pass to
Durango on the Mexican Interna-
tional railway. There has been
some washout on the three roads
and trains were delayed.
This rain will be worth millions
Of dollars to those states.
This week the Mexican Inter
national Railway company have
purchased the depot ground in this
city, and they expect to commence
to break ground soon at Reata, on
the Mexican International in the
state of COahuila.
There are several new enterprises
talked of being started here soon
They will be announced the first oil

ARISING OLD GLORY

The manufacturers of corn plasters will not
be able to use the United States flag for pur-
poses of advertising if Mr.. Caldwell, of Ohio. is
able to get the bill he has introduced in the
House of Representatives enacted into law.
In no country on the face of the globe is the
National emblem OF the people loved more than
in the United States. But, strange to say, in
almost no other country is the flag of the Ma
ton permitted to be used by persons to adver-
tse their goods. The Stars and Stripes can be
deisced with impunity, whereas in every
European country such acts are Punishable by
heavy fines and imprisonment.
Opposition to this, to say the least, unques-
tonabe practice, has hitherto taken definite
form III the introduction Of bills in Congress
prohibiting it, but none have been successful,
for one small reason another.
Among the most fragrant cases of dissertation
to the flag was the advertisement OF a brewer
who extoled the virtues Of his beer between
the stripes, while he placed great glass of the
frothy liquid in the middle of the blue back
ground reserved as sacred to the stars emble-
matte of the States of the Union. The flag has
frequently been used by jockey clubs to herald
the name of their organizations at the race
courses Hand bills lave been formed of minia-
ture flags all spotted over with printed matter
in the interest of all sorts Of businesses and the
hearts OF veterans have ached whenever they
have seen the flag for which they fought so i'll
used.
Now, Mr.. CaldweiPs bill provides that any
person who SHALL use the National flag. either
by printing, painting or affixng on said flag. or
otherwise attaching to tho same, any advertise
ment for public display shall be guilty of a
misdemeanor. and, Oil conviction thereof in the
District Court of the United States shall be
fined in any sum not exceeding $50, or impris-
onment not exceeding 80 days, or both, at the
discretion of the courts

PENSION POLICY.

Two iu portant declarations of policy were
made by the HOUSE Committee on Invalid Pen
sions last week in reporting to the House
against private pension bills. One was upon &
claim silnilar to tiiss OF Judge Long, of Michi.
gan. 5fs.h
Henry A. F. Worth. Of the 9th u. s.. applied for
an increase on the ground of total heip!essness.
Assistant Secretary Bussev bad decided that 1t
was not enough TO entitie Il man to a hrst-crade
pension that he received the regular aid and
attention Of an0theriperson," but that the need
for such aid must he shown.
In deciding this case, tho committee held
that it is rot good policy for Congress to inter
fere with cases over which the Pension Bureau
has Jurisdiction, and which hinge upon inter-
pretations of the law.
The OTHER bill was for pension to the heirs
of Marcellus Petit, 2lst Mo-, whose fatal disease
had been contracted while in active service
with the State troops before they were mus
tered into the regular service.
The policy of Congress As declared by Demo-
cratic member sof tho committee acting upon
this case is not to favor private legislation.
The House Committee on Appropriations has
finished the consideration of the pension sppro-
priation bill. and has agreed to make cut of
$I5, 600 900 as compared with the amount APP
propriated last year.
But for cerk-bire. Special Examiners and
Surgeons fees there has been large increase
in the appropriation. In other words. for run
ming the Bureau, and for disbursing So, 600 900
less of money, there will be million or two
more expended during the next sscal year.
The fact that nearly 700. coo claims are pend
ing, and that 100000 cases are waiting for the
final action of the Pension Bureau, did not
change the action of the committee.

ARMY AND NAVY.

An erroneous impression has arisen in regard
to the Army whistle. Its use by Army officers
is not compulsory. MuBy officers suggested tho
advantage OF whistles in cases where the verbal
command could not be distinguished. and Gen.
Sehofie!d recommended that officers desiring to
use them be given that privilege. The COM
mand by the whistle is to be given only in Skin
misL drills. 1t may be carried in the sword
bit or elsewhere, according to the pleasure Of
tie wearer.
When tho Navy Department comes TO COM
mission the many new vessels now approach
ing completion it will be brought face to face
with serious and reTpexing problem.
With the rapid growth of the Navy there
has been no corresponding increase in the On
listed force, and through this failure on the
part of Congress to maintain the proportionate
strength the Department finds itself in AN em-
barrassing position. In fact. the situation as it
now stands is one of plenty of ships and no
crews, instead Of the customary reverse of this
condition.
The next important event to take place at
the Naval Ordnance Proving Ground at Indian
Head will be the trial of one of the 13-inch
guns. The projectle which it carries weighs
,IG0 pounds and To pr0pel it requires half Of
its weight in brown powder In the great
quantity of powder required for these giant
gnns is one of the most striking illustrations OF
the advance in ordnance. The 500 pounds of
powder which it burns ut a single discharge
would have lasted for good many rounds in
the largest cannon used during the late war,
while the amount of metal in the proiectile
would make good many solid shot for an old
time smoothbore.

CHINESE WILL REGISTER.

Commissioner Miller, of the Internal Reve-
nue. Bureau, has received letter from Col
hector WclhOrn, of the San Francisco District.
con frmng his prediction that the Chinese
residents of the United States will no longer
resist the requirements of the Geary law in
the matter of registration. In his letter Mr..
Welborn says: t~
The Chinese have been quite slow in making
applications for registration. aud there are not
over 600 registered up TO date. The delay has
been caused by the non-arriva OF the Chinese
Minister from Washington. The Six Compa-
uies expressed a willingness TO have their
members register. hit declined to issue III
strnctions 10 that effect until the REPRESENTA-
tive of their Government arrived. The Min
istcr arrived Suuiay. Tuesday he met the
officers of the Six Companies and Chinese Mer
chant Exchange, a powerful factor with the
Chinese.
After consultation it was decided TO issue
proclamation, in which the Chinese laborers
were directed to register This proclamation
has been posted in Chinatown in this city and
in other places. There is no longer any doubt
of their compliance with the law"

The silver Dollars History.
lPms5arg Dispatch.J

The silver dollar is always being discusses
In the journals Some of the facts concerning
il are of interest. Here is its chronological
history: Authorized to be coined, act Of April
2. 1892; weight, 416 grains; fneness, 1924.
Weight changed, act of Jan. Is, 1887. TO 41zf
grains Fimeness changed, act of Jan. 13, 1881,
to &C., Coinage discontinued. act of February,
1873 Coinage reauthOrized, act Of February
1878. Amount coined from March, 1873. TO
Dec 81, 1881, S2S3. 295. 357. Total amount coined
to Dec 81, 1889. S357, 969 239.
The first silver dollar was put into cireulati0a
in 1893. sit was a crude design" says his
torian. "On the diverse OF face of the coin
was imprinted the head of young lady whose
hair was flowing to such an extent that she
looked as if eveFtaken in fierce gale or wind"
In 1896 Congress stepped in 60 the aid Of the
typical damseI and tied her hair up with bis
of ribbon. The Is stars were after this reduced
to the original 13 in recognition OF the numbeg
of States. In 1886 the design was again
changed, and the silver dollar bore the figure
of woman in flowing garment. The d.
signer neglected TO put On the Is stars, and tao
coin was called in. Anyone now in possessiOE
of one of those dollars has valuable souvenir.
The new design had the lady surrounded 81
the stars
The dollar of 1888 was the first artistic pies
of silver coined by the United States Mint. In
April, 1864, the first dollar having the legend,
" In God We Trust F" was coined. In 1873 The
era of what WAS called the trade dollar of 909
fneHess. began. That troublesome coin ran -
cratic course in five years. In 1878 the lin
srty dollar made its appearance. Miss Anna
w. Williams, teacher in a school at Philadei-
phia sat for the portrait, her profile being
then considered the most perfect Obtainabas.
Her classic features still decorate the Silver
dollar

VALUABLE DOCUMENTS.

The War Department recently ascertained
that among the papers of the ehiefiaiB of the
Southern Confederacy were some valuable docu-
nients relating To the times in which he was
prom inent, AID il was determined to get copies
OF them if possible When Mrs. Davis was
suokea to on the subject che at first objected
strongly, being strengthened in her resolution,
il is asserted, by An attorney, who declared that
she could eventually dispose of them for valu-
able consideration to the United States Gov
errment.
When Jeff Davis died he left all his manu-
scripts and papers TO his wife. who turned them
over TO the Lou isiana Historical Society at New
Orleans for safe keeping. In the building
erected by the late Charles Howard, and pre-
sented to the Historical Society these papers
were stored away with other valuable relics of
the lost cause" No attempt was made at
classifying the precious documents, bEt letter
books. Communications on various ijects and
valuable men0raDda concerning the war of the
rebellion were piled up promiseuousy in the
corner.
Through the efforts of member of the
Washington Artillery OF New Orleans, who
took deep interest IN matters historical, in-
formation of this kind WAS communicated to
the War Department, and Secretary Lamont
was enabled iayorably to intercede with Mrs.
Davis for the privilege of copying the docu-
ments in the New Orleans Museum.
AT first she was decidedly taBkerous about
the matter. and vowed that such scheme
should not be carried out with her sanction.
1t was represented to her finally that tile in
formation contained in the letter books Of her
late husband would clear up many disputed
points of the epoch in which he lived, and
finally her permission was obtained 10 copy a
letter-bOok.
This WAS all the authority needed, for the
articles in the museum belong to her eXclns-
iyely no attemnt having been made look iug to
their donation; aud. armed with this paper.
