The Free silver Champion Views the
Matter With Marked Suspicion.
ST. LOUIS No, Nov. 27.-In response
60 telegram to Congressman R, P
Bland, asking for an expression Of
opinion on the bond issue, the fol-
lowing was received by the Post-Dis-
patch to-day:
LEBANON, Mo-, Nov. 3 To the
Editor of the Post Dispatch: If the
secretary OF the treasury would exer-
else his option to pay out silver for
greenbaeks and treasury notes issued
under the Sherman law, there could
be no drain of gold from the treasury.
The government Of France does this,
and keeps all her money at par.
This bond issue business looks like
an attempt to force congress to re-
tire cur treasury notes aud to sub
stitute a system of national bank
currency. The fight is still on between
the advocates of the free coinage OF
silver as the true mode of currency re-
form and the adherents of the national
banks It is proposed by the latter
to farm out TO corporations the power
to control the value and volume of
money. Surely the money monopoly
Of this country now thinks it is in the
saddle, but time Will tell. whether
the people or monopoly are to rule

produced such good results in the

Lions i'm Salt Lake City.

Salt Lake, March 1.-Ravenous
mountain lions prowling about the
streets of city of 65, 900 inhabitants
is an unusal sight, but this is the spec
tacle that has created CONSERVATION
among the residence of the outlying
portions of the city during the past
few days. Not only lions, but coyotes
and other wild beasts have been driven
down the canyons that open into the
valley by the extraordinary SHOWS.
The lions are especially feared, as
they are becoming very bold. Yester-
day morning some laborers working on
a boulevard in the northern suburbs
of the city saw two large lions walk
ing leisurely up the hillside. 1t was
discovered that they had killed horse,
the partly devoured carcess of which
was found near the City Cemetery.
This morning one of the ferocious
animals came out of City Creek can
yon, tho mouth of which is within four
blocks of the business center of the
city, and wandered through the streets
of the northern and eastern portion of
town. No ono attempted to dispute
his wright or way, and his tracks,
measuring over six inches in length,
could BIO soon in tho snow and mud all
day.

Thirty-Five Thousand Dollars ON q
Throw of the Dice.

Throw OF the Dice.
Helena, Mont, February 28.-
General Charles Warren, mining mag
nate and real estate dealer, had a
fraction of mine just north of the
Buffalo, in Silver Bow county, the
property of John E. Lloyd, under
lease and bond for $15, 900. The
bond will expire next June. The
property is promising one and Miles
Finlen, saloon-keeper and politician,
formerly of Virginia City, Nevada,
has long wanted to buy it. He met
the General yesterday afternoon and
asked him what he would take for it.
81 do not want to sell it," said
Warren.
"Tll give you just SIG, $780," said
Finlen. The General laughed at him.
Finlen raised his offer 1000.
"You make me tired" said War
rem.
"Well," said Miles, "just to show
you that I am all right I'll give you
an even So, 900 for your lease and
bond"
Then Warren began to talk bust
ness. He said:
"I will do this, miles. You take
the property off my hands, give
me So, 900 cash down and $40, 900 at
the expiration of the bond and the
mine is yours.
Finlen studied a moment. Then
he said:
"Charlie, just to show you that I
am a dead game sport, I'll shake
you the dice, one flop out of the box,
to see whether I give you a check for
$50, 900 for the mine of $15, 0OO."
He walked up to the bar and asked
for the dice box.
"Tll just 60 you," said Warren,
after a moments hesitation. The
agreement was then repeated.
Warren threw first He shook a
pair of fves. Without word he
passed the box to Finlen.
AS Finlen ratified the box he said;
" Now, this is on the dead square, y
Charlie?
Warren nodded. When the box
was lifted from Finlen's throw it was
found he had thrown three deuces.
Finlen wrote out check of $15, 900,
which he handed to Warren. With.
out saying a word the General left
the saloon.
He had lost $35, 900 on deuce.

Death of a Well-Known Gambler.


Denver, February 25.-Charlie
Barnum, an old-time sport who was
well know in every mining camp west
of the Mississippi, has gone to the dis
secting table after dying in the county
Hospital Barnum had no relatives
or at least his associates during the
last thirty years never heard of any.
Barnum was with Lew Blonger in
Carson, New, and up to his last ILL
ness was supported by the gamblers.
It has often been said of him that
he had taken enough morphine to kill
regiments, and so thoroughly was he
saturated with the drug that five years
ago physician offered $500 for his
body after death. His death was ex-
pected daily, but Barnum rejected the
offer and struggled along to yesterday,
when he gave up the fight. The de-
ceased boasted that he could absorb
twenty-one grains of morphine day,
and no one disputed his claim.
To-day his body went to the State
University in a box labeled "supplies,"
and the scientist will make critical
autopsy on the interesting cadaver.

They Fixed Him.

At Bakersfield, CAL, last week, a
tramp went to Newton Blackers house
near Poso creek and asked for some
thing to eat. Mrs. Blackers said she had
nothing but some cold meat and bread,
but she would give him what she had.
While preparing the meal the tramp
entered the house and attempted to
outrage her. The neighborhood was
aroused and all started after the fend
and caught him at Kimberlena. They
then took him from the officers, strip
ped him and tied him to a telegraph
pole and gave him severe whipping,
and fixed him so he will never attempt
such an outrage again. He was then
let 60.
