APie PLACED on His Tomb.

A curious memorial gift was recently
placed on "A tomb in the great Pere la Chaise
cemetery. The grave was the last resting
place of the famous gourmet, Brllat-Savar-
in, and the memorial, destined evidently to
commemorate the anniversary of his death,
consisted of splendid pie or pate made of
cartridges and truffies, presumably depos-
tied there by the pious hand of some cook
who justly regarded this as an infinitely
more appropriate tribute to the illustrious
dead than any commonplace flowers.

long and brilliant journalistic career.
Miss Glider was born in Philadelphia 35
DR. 40 years ago and published her first story
I'm the New York Dispatch when she was
only A. Three years later she was a regu
lar contributor to the Newark Daily Adj
vertser, of which her brother Richard
Watson Glider, was then editor. SHE soon
made somewhat of reputation as jour
nalist, and during the quarter of IA century
that she has been following literary pur-
suits she has written dramatic criticisms
reviewed books, written plays, reported
news matters for New York papers and
furnished literary gossip to newspapers all
over the United States.
In 1850 she and her brother Joseph start

other dramatic ventures was a comedy
written for Harry Beckett, who was on the
eve of presenting it in England when death
cut short his career and the production of
her play.

On the banks of the majestic Danube in
Buda- Pesth is being built a parliament
house which equals in size, magnitceuce
and architectural beauty any similar struc-
ture in the world. 1t even rivals the proud
palace that sits on the banks OF the Thames

lament house resembles somewhat in its
surroundings and situation the palace of
Westminster. 1t is on the Pesth side, mid
way between the two great arms which
span the Danube-the Margaret bridge
above and the Suspension bridge below Its
front faces the turbulent river at its widest
bend in this vicinity. In reality it is chain
of houses running parallel with the river
and forms parallelogram about 400 feet
long by 600 in width.
The principal rooms will be the house of
magnates or lords and the house of com
mons, which occupy the center of the build

hail, octagoual in shape, with diameter
of 65 feet between the walls. From this

Extracts From the Diary of Princess Eliza

affection to surmount the barriers of pride,
precedent and prejudice that divide royalty
from the people, as the union of Princess
Elizabeth of Bavaria with Baron Seefried

Princess Elizabeth is the granddaughter
of the emperor of Austria, and as is the case
with most princesses royal marriage was
planned for her. Accordingly she was no.

Francis Ferdinand heir presumptive to the

demurred. She had met at court ball in

one of the poorest men in the German army,
for whom she conceived sudden and ar

The gold reserve continues to drop.
and the Cabinet is driven TO distraction
in its efforts to check the continuous
outflow Of gold.
A year ago, when the reserve was
broken, it was loudly proclaimed BY
Cleveland that the Sherman law was the
cause, and that the reserve must be
broken in order to maintain the imam
cisl equilibrium. At that time it was
also asserted that upon the repeal OF thai
law the finances Of the country would
be readjusted, and that when this was
done the reserve could be re established.
II was this argument that led the East
into a misguided rotion that silver was
mischievo Jus factor, and that the West
ern Status in %compaetly opposing the IN
conditions al repeal were m~alcontents whit
were driving the country into . political
abyss.
The Sherman law was repealed, as
willed by President Cleveland; but the
reserve has not been established. There
has been no return to an improved finan'
cial condition. On the contrary, the
conditions have been gradually growing
worse, until to-day the Treasury Depart
ment confronts a dilemma which calls
for prompt and effective action.
The silver men OF the country can,
however. view these conditions COM
placeutly. During the whole Of the
agitation the minority, day after day,
| predicted ell that has occurred. These
warnings are not needed. The admins
tration went e.olidly on in it's suicidal
course, plunging the country into evils
that could easily have been m~itigated, il
not avoided. The same piggish charac-
teristics which the administration devel'
| oped infected both the Senate and the
House, and in view Of this fact there il
no sympathy in this section OF the coun-
try for the distracted administration.
| Colorado, in company with other West
ern States, has suffered the worst that
| could befsll her. She has recovered from
the blow, and is slowly but surely pull
ing herself together. The reserve may
be entirely wiped out and the admins
tration driven to the extremity Of an
other issue Of bonds to sustain its credit,
yet there will be no weeping or wailine
In this neck Of the woods. The bed in
which Cleveland and his conferees find
themselves is Of their own making.

GROWTH OF INVENTION.

Il is said Of Henry Renwick, the great
patent expert, who was the first exam.
liner appointed in the Patent Office at
Washington, and who resigned in 1874,
that he did so because he had made up
his mind that comparatively few more
patents would be issued; that the whole
field OF invention had been pretty thor.
oughly explored and exhausted, and
that he, therefore, thought he ought to
look out for some business Of 0 more
permanent kind. In commenting on
this, a writer in Casters Magazine says
that, at the present day, with the multi
tude Of inventions that have cropped up,
and with the host that is to follow, this
early view Of the subject is uniquely in
teresting. Experience has more than
borne out the statement once uttered
that one invention makes at least one
additional one necessary. If an article
be invented, a machine for making it
must often be invented also; the build
ing Of this machine may again necessi.
tate the employment Of some special
tool, for which. too. we may have to de-
pend on inventive genius, and in this
way multiplication Of devices may go on
to an extent little imagined in the be.
ginning. The discovery and msnufac-
ture CT kerosene for illuminating pur-
poses, for example, are said to have been
alone responsible for about 5000 differ
emit inventions which have been patented.
There are similarly said to be about
5000 separate inventions for coupling
railroad cars. and something like 500 for
knitting machines. Other equally strik.
ing cases would no doubt be afforded by
q study of the subject, but are scarcely
necessary to complete the picture.

FOUR CENTURIES OF FLUCrUA.
TION.

Il lie by comparison Of long periods OF
time that the most correct estimates can
be made Of the truth or ialsity Of GER
tain statistical propositions. Upholders
Of the single gold standard claim that
the violent fluctuations in the relative
values Of gold add silver in the last
twenty years have been occasioned by
the increased production Of silver dur
ing that time. While twenty years is q
long time in the history Of . nation, yet
twenty times twenty years is none too
long in being taken as . period Of time
in which to illustrate similar huctus-
tions in 90 impOrtsn. and eternal q fac
tor in the worlds wealth ss the relative
values Of gold and silver. Statistics OF
the annual production Of gold and silver
in the world since the discovery OF
America herein condensed TO ordinary
limits show that from 1892 to l545 for
each ounce Of gold mined twenty.nine
ounces Of silver were mined. From
l545 to 1850 the proportion was 30 to /;
from 1861 to 1850, As to 1; from 1851 to
1000, nearly GO to l. From 1000 to lS4O
the relative yield at no time fell below
- TO |, and most Of the time it ran from
% to l to 80 toll In 1900 il was ex.
actly so TO l. In 1910 the percentage
was l.9 Of gold to 9s.l Of silver. From
lS4l to 1850, Ia times as much silver was
mined as gold. Then came California
and Australia, and till 1860 the average
was one ounce Of gold to four Of silver.
Since then it is estimated the proportion
has averaged l to %.
When such q segment Of time as that
Is taken it shows that unusual produe-
ton OF the yellow metal has been fol-
lowed by excessive production OF the
white, and vice versa, and that in these
great swings Of the pendulum on Times
dial the relative proportion Of the worlds
stock of the two has not been greatly
disturbed.
There is nothing new about this ques-
ton Of monometsllism or bimetallism.
1t is no more Of o novelty than many
other things Of present discussion, sup
posed to be new, but in reality as old as
the Book Of Job. The only new factor
is present environment, the change Of
rapid REORGANIZATION, etc. The
question comes up for the twentieth
time, and will doubtless, in the long run
be settled as so often before, in favor OF
the only natural lsw-bimetsllism-till
the next upheaysl comes, to be settled
again the same way, and so on through
the ~circling cyles of Times changing
course. Mining and Scientific Press.

The United States could exist with
perfect comfort if il should never have

nation under the gold standard. Such
. condition is, Of course. not to be de.
sired, but the fact is Of no small sig
nifcance. Everything that the gold.
using nations produce we can produce
for ourselves. Everything for which
we are absolutely dependent upon other
countries may be had solely from the
nations that are now upon a silver
basis. This being the case, it is ap-
parent that if bimetallism should shut
us out from European trade, which be-

still have every capacity for high in.

for high living that we now possess.

tician gets hold of a ballot, upon which
he puts a private mark. This he gives
to the voter who has agreed to sell his
vote. The latter enters the polling
booth, gets a ticket and retires to
make it up. But it is the marked n
that he fills. He brings back the clean
ballot. which the practical politician
marks and gives to another v~agabond,
