RECENT LITERATURE.

'Headwaters of the Mississippi, ," by
Captain Willard Glazier, published by
Rand, McNally & Company, Chicago and
New York, is the title of book
recently issued. II comprises biographi-
cal sketches Of early and recent explor
ers of the great river, and full account
Of the discovery and location of its true
source in a lake beyond Itasca. The
author is well known as a writer and
his works stand prominent in the arena
Of literature Some Of his previous works
are; "ThreeYear in the Federal Cavalry"
Heroes of the Three Wars" "Pecul-
iarities of American Cities" and Ocean

work is book Of over 500 pages. Il is

the primal reservoir Of the river he de
termined TO investigate the matter in
the interest Of geography. Having
time at his disposal in the
summer OF 1881 he organized an
expedition to proceed to the hesdwater.
The result was the discovery Of a body
of water lying Immediately to the south
Of Lake ltasca, and emptying into the
latter by perennial stream the mouth Of
which was concealed by a growth of lake
vegetation and fallen trees. Spasmodic
Efforts were made TO discredit the
authors discovery. A second expedition
was undertaken in 1891, composed Of

THE treatment that Coxey and his men
are receiving at Washington will proba-
bly, decrease the ardor Of those who are
there and have some salutary effect in
preventing others from coming. 10 Is
humiliating to think that there are 50
many communities which treat these
tramps as II they deserved some consider
alton, as If they were worthy citizens,
with political views as General Harri
son says, acting in sensible and lawful
manner. But that is a part Of our free
and easy civilization. We are too amiA.
BILE; we are not willing TO apply vigorous
and rigid discipline even when II would
be TO the benefit OF all citizens and Of
the class itself to which vigorous
and drastic treatment should be
applied. The few cities and
commemorative, including Wilmington
aud Delaware, which treated the
Coxey movement as it deserved to be
treated, stand as shining lights Of sense
and good order There is really nothing
else to be done with such people than
was done In Wilmington. They are
either rogues or vagrants. They should
be treated as rogues or vagrants. There
Is no evasion Of that conclusion. There
is no sense in showing sympathy towards
them, while It Is actually harmful to
promote their foolish projects The
arrest Of the leader in Washington was
/ proper: IL would be we'll II the police
would keep strict watch upon them and
confne them to the strictest observance
Of the law against vagrauts and rogues.

A Terrible Dream.

Mrs. Blank went shopping. Mr..
Blank went with her. No one can
explain just why he went, for she
didn't positively compel it, and he is
still regarded as sane! He went,
anyhow.
She wanted buttons. Those at
jenkins store were too small, much
too small. SO she went to Kahn's
and Poznanski's and the Merchants
Supply then to Poznanski's and the
Merchants Supply and Kahn's. At
Jenkins's again they showed her the
same buttons, and she found them
too large. Blank guessed it a case of
expansion caused by the heat; it
seemed hot to him! She got almost
to another place-not quite-for they
saw her coming and locked up for the
night! So she went home.
That night Blanks hard breathing
woke his tired wife, so she woke him
in turn.
"What's the matter9" she demand
ed.
"I-I had dreadful dream" he
gasped; 81 thought we were both
dead, that you had gone to heaven
and that IL hadn't!'
"How perfectly awful" she cried
grasping him convulsively around tile
neck, "to be separated, and"
We've weren't separated.

1t was an Elmw God Avenue car in
the early morning, There were only
three occuants, two men of sporty
appearance, and an elderly, placid
looking man, who watched the pair
with mild interest, notes the Buffalo
Express. The sporty twain were
talking over a subject that was evi
IDENTIFY very congenial. One of them
said; "The way that George Beck
run down that field was surprising.
/ tho't Mr., Jingle was good thing,
but he was more than cross. The
day before he kicked Mabel Glenn,
and most broke one of her ribs.
First, Beck shot by George Dixon,
then he beat, one by one, Mr.. Sass,
Hawthorne and whole lot of dogs,
and finally got up to Tom Skidmore's
neck. Well, it was beaut fight, but
Skldmore wasn't in it. George beat
him and badly, too he was wreck
when he went by the stand, painting
and all done up"
The placid looking man nndged one
of the youths. His face was sight
to behold; amazement and horror
were depicted IN every feature.
"When did this disgraceful affair
occur 7" he asked.
"What disgraceful affair 2" SAID
the youth with blue collar.
"Why, this horrible fracas, this

The first months receipt Of the
treasury department, namely, for
September, under the opVation OF
the new tariff law, aggregated $22,-
Cpl ,2S8, compared with $24, 682,27
for September, 1898, The receipts
for September, 1894, were about slS-
100000 less than for August, 1894,
when the receipts from internal reve-
nue. assumed abnormal proportions
because of the large Withdrawals Of
whiskey in anticipation of the increas-
ed tax Of 20 cents a gallon.
According to the estimates upon
which the new tariff bill was based, it
was to produce from sugar $43, 000,-
600 year, and from the income tax
placed at a minimum figure, SIS, 000,-
900 per year.
No revenue from either of these
sources, however, is shown in the re-
ceipts for September, as the income
tax does not become operative until
January l, and three or four months
supply of sugar was imported prior to
the new law, in anticipation of the .ad
valorem tax Of placed upon it.
Upon the basis Of the income on
which the tariff bill was framed the
revenue from the two principal sources
custom and internal revenue-was
put down sl79, 100000 year each.
For the three months of the present
fiscal year the total receipts have
been $97,9S4, l74, against $79,279,-
All for the corresponding months of
1898. Of the receipts for the current
fiscal year to date, $S5, 1877, 243 has
been from customs, Or at the rate of
$14O, 100000 year, and $5S,944,-
GIG from interval revenue, or at the
rate of 1882, 000,0O year. e
From present indications, when the
revenue from sugar and the income
tax begins to be proved and customs
and internal receipts assume their
normal condition, as they are now
gradually doing, surplus for the
fiscal year of between $50, 100000
and $50, 900, 900, at the present ratio,
existing between receipts and expen-
ditures is indicated.
For the current year to date ex-
penditures exceed receipts less than
81, 200, 900. 1,
