WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 81
MILLIONS DID NOT VOTE

An analysis OF all the vote of
all the States on the 9Th instant
show that over one-third OF the
voters did not exercise the right
of suffrage. A comparison of the
vote of 1894 with that of 1892 dis,
closes the fact that there has nor
been very large Republican gain
In the States east Of the Missouri
Democrats in many of the States
kept away from the polls and did
not vote at all.
Professor Waite, the statIs-
tician, has asceItained from the
returns that over 1000, 600 voters
did not avail themselves of the
right of suffrage. This lack Of
interest in the election is at
tributed TO hostility or lack of faith
in the present Administration.
In New York State alone the reg
istered vote was 1000 short of
what it should have been. In
Michigan and other States the
total Republican vote was no
more than in 1892, but the Demo
cratic vote was much less. In
many of the Western and South
ern States the Peoples party vote
was greatly in excess OF that
polled for Weaver and Field in
1892. In some States the Peoples
party vote increased several hun
bred per cent. In California the
vote for Webster for Governor
was about one hundred per cent
greater than that given to Weaver
in 1892.
There is general dissatisfaction
with the old parties in many of the
States, and the third party is
drawing heavily from their
ranks. In New England and
New York the disaffected did not
vote, while in the Western States
many who did vote cast their bal
lots for the third party candidates.
Clevelandism demoralized the
Democratic party and broke up
the Solid South.

THE ISSUES OF 1896.

The newspapers friendly to sill
yer are urging Congress to pass n
free coinage bill as SION as it
convenes in December. The
Omaha Herald says the friends
of silver in the present Congress
should make Il determined effort
to pass such bill and send it to
the President for his signature.
f the President approves the bill
then silver will be restored to its
former standard if he vetoes il
the issue of 1896 will be before us.
The Democratic party sus-
tanned an overwhelming defeat at
the late election. Its overthrow
was due to the dull times, which
political economists attribute to
the adoption of the god standard.
\ free coinage act Wonld mater
tally improve the condition of the
people. 1t would enhance the
price of every product Of the farm
and factory, increase the demand
for labor, stimulate enterprise,
put more money in circulation
and restore general confidence.
That being generally understood
the veto Of such a bill would make
the free coinage of silver the para
mount issue Of the Presidential
campaign of 1896 and the party
that opposed it would go TO the
wall in spite of the millions of
Wall street.

Effect of Smoking on Boy

One of the medical journals re-
cords the observations Of physician,
who has been Investigating with
great minuteness and accuracy the
effects of smoking on boys. He took
for this purpose thirty-eight boys
from nine to fifteen years. and care
fully examined them. In twenty
seven of the number he discovered
injurious traces of the habit. In
twenty-five there were various dis
orders of the circulation and diges-
ton, palpita ton Of the heart, and a
more or less taste for strong drink.
In twelve of the cases there occurred
frequent bleeding of the nose, ten
had disturbed sleep, and twelve had
slight alterations Of the mucous MEM
brane of the mouth, which disappear
ed on ceasing the use of tobacco Tor
some days. The Doctor treated them
all for weakness, but with little
effect, until the smoking was dis
continued. when health and strength
wire soon restored.

DOGS HAVE THEIR LANGUAGE.

The Collie Came for Help and the New
foundand Responded to the Appeal
When engaged in locating a rail-
way in New Brunswick James Cam
den civil engineer, was compelled
one night by very severe snowstorm
to take refuge in a small farmhouse,
says Forest and Stream. The farmer
owned two dogs-one an old New
toundland and the other collie. In
due time the farmer and his family
went to bed, the Newfoundland
stretched himself out by the chin
ney corner and Mr. Camden and the
man with him rolled themselves in
their blankets on the floor in front Of
the FIRE. TIE door Of tie house was
clio cd by a wooden latch and fasten-
ed by bor placed across it. Mr..
Camden and his man were just fall
ing as,eep when they heard the latch
of the dor raised They did not
set up immediately, and in a short
time the latch was tried again. They
waited few minutes and then Mr..
Camden rose. unfastened the door
and looked out. Seeing nothing, he
returned to his blankets, but did not
replace the bar across the door. Two
o. three minutes later the latch was
tried a third time. This time the
door opened and the collie walked in.
He pushed the door back, walked
straight to the old Newfoundland
and appeared to make some kind Of
whispered communication to him.
Mr.. Camden lay still and watched.
TIE old deg rose and followed the
other out OF the house. Both pre-
sently returned, driving before them
a valuable ram belonging to the
farmer, which had tecome separated
from the rest of the flock and was in
danger Of perishing in the storm.
Now, how did the collie impart to
the other dog a knowledge of the sit
uat:on unless through some super
sense unknown to us?

Boys and Books.

"You have done a great thing
when you have brought boy to
have entertainment from book, :"
observes DR.. Johnson; and whoever
has had the training of young folk,
especially OF youths who did not nat
uraliy take kindly to reading, is
likely to agree with him most fully.
Certainly the most essential and Of
ten the most difficult part OF boys
education is just the point OF teach
ing to care for reading. Once that
is DONE the hardest of the battle is
over. 1t is careless or a dull parent
who cannot do much for boys mind
if once he has got him to be fond of
reading. It is after that a. question
of guidance; and, if they arc not
driven, there is little that cannot be
done in the way Of guidance when
one is training boys

Parents and Children.

The Joys Of parents are secret, and
so are their griefs and fears; they
cannot utter the one, and they will
not utter the other. Children sweet
en- labors, but they make misfortunes
more bitter, they increase the cares
OF life, but they mitigate the remem-
brance of death. The perpetuity by
generation is common to beasts; but
memory, merit, and noble work are
peculiar to men. The difference in
affection Of p rents toward their sew
eral children is many times unequal,
and sometimes unworthy, especially
in the mother. Where is house full
of children, a man shall see some re-
spected. and some that are almost
forgotten, who may nevertheless
prove the best The illiberality of
parents to their children makes them
base, and frequently induces them to
associate with mean company. Let
parents choose betimes the courses
they mean their clildren should take,
for then they are the most flexible.
If the aptness Of the children be ex-
traordinary, then it is well not to
cross it.

no pains have been spared to make 1T

The interior arrangement is very
complete and unique, the hall being

brary and dining-room in ash, all the

that is appreciated by every house

A Haunted Room.
At the head of the old colonial stair
case is square room, said to have
been Mime. Jumel's chamber, now
known as the haunted room. 1t was in
this room that Mime. Jumel died. Some
of those who have slept in it say that

down near the fireplace. and the rustic
of Nine. Junel's brocade gown can be
heard. On some nights she steps
through the panel, walks to the mirror

right and proper that everyone should
look through all the links and com.

And no one who starts out with the
intention of spending Sd, 900 in the
erection of dwelling, and winds ul
with three times that amount, will
be likely to think they have used
much JUDGMENT, and will try and
shift the blame on some one else.
But it is one of those things that
time will place where it belongs. A
building will vary in cost Of construc-
tion according to locality, and will
also depend greatly on the business

MAINTAINING THE GOLD SUPPLY
Only Enough Being Mined Nowadays for
Use in the Arts.

Only Enough Being Mined Nowadays for
Use in the Arts.
The two most eminent living writ
ers n the precious metals, Suess and
Soetbeer, have recently published
what the New York Telegram calls
very alarming statement 1t is to
the effect that the total amount of
gold dug out OF the earth annually
sutfices only to supply the present
demand for that valuable substance
for use in the arts Not bit of the
new product of the mines is availa-
BILE for coinage Trinket use and
waste in manufacture exhaust the
whole yield. Ii this is correct, then
gold must vanish from circulation
before long, because the output of
the gold mines Of the world is dmin-
ishing rather than increasing, and
there aye few fields left to explore.
But Uncle Sans metallurgists say it
is not So The writer's quoted fail to
consider the fact that the gold en-
ployed in the arts is utilized over and
over again. 1t goes through sort of
cycle. Articles of jewelry often dis
appear, but are seldom lost. When
through accident they pass out of the
possession of the well-to-do, they so
to the poor and sharp eyed, who sell
them or lawn them. Some jewelry
is lost by fire and some in the sea,
aud these losses are absolute and
hopeless, but jewelry otherwise iscer-
tain, practically all of it, to find it's
way, sooner or later, to the pawn
shops or into the hands Of dealers in
old gold. Thus it is melted up
eventually, and reappears again in
other shapes This is what is termed
the invisible supply" Of that metal.
There are number of unavoida-
BILE causes of loss of gold. The first
and most important Of these is by
abrasion. Jewelry loses much weight
in that way, especially rings, which
are usually eighteen karat, and are
worn rapidly. Coins suffer much
less but still considerably from wear.
All gold leaf is a total loss to the gold
stock of the world. Where used for
decorative purposes it is never recov-
cred. 1t is not employed for filling
UccOu nearly sO LHuCu bS All Ayi
porous gold" being substituted. But,
of course, the gold utilized for filing
teeth is total loss, and in the ag-
gregate it is enormous in quantity.
If it be supposed that the average
dweller in cities of this country has
SO cents worth of gold in his or her
mouth. which is placing the figure
very low, it will be seen how great is
the waste in this form. Each sue
ceeding generation takes SO many
millions Of dollars worth of the
metal from the worlds stock in this
way. Some gold is lost in reme,ting,
though all possible means be taken
to reduce it to the lowest possible
figure. Not only are the floors swept
and the dirt treated for the recovery
of the yellow substance, but the
wooden planks are burned eventually
with the same object. Even the
shoes of each man who works with
the metal are subjected to the chem
istry of fire, yielding small "button'
of the precious material.
