Floral Notes.

The Chrysanthemum show will be
held some time in the early part OF
November and will be in aid of the
public library.
One of the features of the show will
be the exhibit by the children under
16 years of age.
The hilts of the swords forged by
the Emperor, Gotoba, who assembled
the throne in 1851 had the "pipa''
(chrysanthemum) figured on them.
Many girls in japan are named
O-Vikin San, which means Honora-
BILE Miss Chrysanthemum.
Carbonate of ammonia, one ounce
to about five gallons of water is a
splendid .stimulant for chrysanthe-
NUNS.
A soaking of SCOT water once a
week will help to keep the worms out
of the pits and give to the foliage a
rich green hue.
One of the prettiest sights in or
around town is the lily bed at the Mt.
Sterling Floral Company's garden any
morning between 8 and IL, visitors
can see the following aquatic plants
in their gorgeous bloom:
Nymphe'a Zanyibarensis azurea
(blueD Nymphe'a Odorata rosea
(pink,) Nymphe'a Flava (yellow,)
Nymphe'a Odorata (white,) as well
as the yellow water poppy (Lininoch-
aries Humboldtii.)
A few beds of this description
would add greatly to the looks of the
handsome yards in town, and we
imagine could be easily made when
the water works are in operation.
Lebini Harrisii and Fuscias should
be pitted this month, the latter at
once if you want them in bloom by
christmas. Five bulbs in four inch
pit will make nice display.

The Tariff Bill, commonly known
as the Wilson Bill, passed by the
House and amended by the Senate,
and which was referred to confer
rees, has at last been passed by
the House and is now known as
the Senate bill. This measure
scarcely bears a semblance of the
Democratic policy and is almost in
direct variance with the Democrat
ic platform of 1892. From the cold
lettering of the bill as it appears,
we would oppose it, but we are len
lent enough to concede that both
Congressman and Senators elected
under the Democratic platform are
downright Democrats, and they
have done the best they could
under the circumstances, with the
view of repeating and amending
Objectionable features whenever it
was possible to do so, and this is
an understanding between the two
Houses. However, if it is other
wise. President Cleveland will
know it and he will have the cour-
age to veto the bill.

The Money Question.

The official statement made by
the Bureau of Statistics, as pub.
lished, gives for the year ending
June 80, 1894, the amounts of var.
ious forms of money in circulation
on July 1 of the present year the
amount in the hands of the people
of the United States was 1864
O61, 232, or over $71,O00,000 more
than in July 1, 1898, increasing
the per capita to $24.33. The Fed
eral Treasury held in addition at
the time named $685. ,O44.
Of the 81, 664, O61, 232 in circula-
as much as $497, S73,990 was gold
coin, $51, 191,377 silver, $5S,233,-
344 subsidiary silver $66,344, 400
gold certificates, $327,094,3S1 sill
yer certificates, $134, S62,009 Sher-
man Treasury Notes, $268,772,37l
greenbacks, $5S,935,OOO currency
certificates and S2O0,454,351 ma
tional bank notes.
One striking fact is the increase
of $71,O0O,0OO in circulation in the
year, in spite of the decreased de-
mand for money and its cheapness
in the money centers.
Another of even greater impor-
lance is that 80 per cent. of the
circulating medium is gold, not
outstanding the fact that for
nearly twenty years the whole pur-
pose of our Legislative follies has
been to expel gold and retain sill
yer.

The Danville Advocate contains
the following statement; "As be-
tween Gov. MeCreary and Senator
Blackburn, who will seek re-elec-
ton, the latter does not seem to
possess any Of the quaiifica-
tions Of a statesman that the for
mer has not displayed, nor is his
standing in Congress or in his
State any higher. In diligence
and reliability Gov. McCreary is
so far superior to Senator Black
burn he can be clothed with the
Senatorial toga without fear OF
the State losing prestige or the
country suffering by the change"

Bradstreet's mercantile agency
in it's weekly review of trade says
that evidence continues to accumu
late in proof that the earlier part
Of July saw the lowest point in the
ebb of the commercial tide. Fa-
vorable indications, in addition,
are found in the advance during
the week of steel billets and in the
firmness of wool. Bradstreet's re-
ports are decidedly at variance
with other reports of a calamitous
nature as to the corn crop, and the
opinion is expressed that the eX-
IRENE bull views as to the staple
are exaggerated, the increased corn
acreage South and West pointing

either of the two preceding years,

not more than 6 per cent. below

1t is estimated that nearly 10000
Russian troops are in Eastern Siberia,
and they have with them sixty-four
heavy guns. This, in connection with
the fact that Russia has sent eight
warships under sealed orders to Corea,
and that the Commander-in-ch of
Eastern Siberia has been instructed to
hold the troops of that district in read
mess to march at any moment, is re-
garded as significant. japanese dip
lomats express perfect confidence that
the Powers will not permit China to
annex Corea.

A Year in Congress,

1t is a year since Congress met III
extra session.
In November, 1892, the people re-
pudiated Mckinley and all his works
deposed Speaker Reed and called Har.
rison from the White House.
This was not done impulsively OIL
accidentally.
The Republicans had made three
distinct issues with the people in 1890.
The first was the Mckinley act.
The second was the Sherman act.
The third was the force bill.
In November, 1890, the Republicans
met an overwhelming defeat, and the
Democrats were again given control
of the House.
Two years later the same issues en-
tered into the Presidential campaign
The benefits promised from the Nc
Kinley act and the Sherman act did
not materialize. On the contrary the
situation changed steadily for the
worse.
Europe lost confidence in America
Trade languished. Wages were re-
duced, strikes followed, and general
distress prevailed.
The situation became so critical that
the Congress elected in 1892 and which
ordinarily would have assembled in
December was called in extraordinary
session in August.
The chief error ofjudgment was in
not calling this extra session for March
4 that is plain now, though it was by
no means plain then.
But Congress has been in session a
year, and only two.of the three obnox-
ious acts have been repealed. yfr
The Sherman bill was the subject of
much controversy and the obstinate
resistance of the Senate added still
more to the depression of business.
The election laws were repealed
with little difficulty. Appropriation
bills have been handled with good
Judgment, and the expenses of govern
ment have been greatly reduced.
But no relief to business is possible
until the tariff is settled. &c..
Every step in the direction of tariff
reform has been resisted by every
means at the command of the Repub-
lican organization. The responsible
ty for this long and disastrous DELAY
must be placed where it belongs, and
it belongs with the Republican lead
ers.
The Mckinley act was in every
provision vicious measure.
1t was written by the beneficiaries
of the taxes, not by the men who pay
the taxes.
To maintain the evils that law estal
lished, the Republican party has stood
like a stone wall, resisting every
change which curtailed in the least
the revenues of organized capital.
The solid front, and this, alone
made possible the work of German,
Brice and Smith and the other Demo-
cratic traitors.
ThirtY-eight Republican Senators
have shown in 1894 the same subser-
viency to the trusts as was manifested
in 1890, and it is this attitude which
has delayed for eight months the pas
sage of the Wilson Bill. 1t is this
open resistance to the will of the peo-
pie which has kept business disturb
ed, made all investments uncertain,
discouraged. enterprise and enforced
on labor.
Democrats are responsible only for
five Democratic obstructionists, but
the great body of mischiet-makers are
the Republican Senators, and they
will be held accountable by the peo-
ple.-Louisville Post.

the Ninth Judicial Circuit, for COM
plicity in the killing of Robert G. Ross,
who ruined the formers sister-in-law.
The trial attracted much attention
throughout the State, Judge Talley's
participation in the crime consisted in
sending telegram preventing warn
ing from being delivered to Ross.
TalIey, as result of the decision, will
have to stand trial on the charge of
murder in the first, degree.

when he was defeated two years

 On the other hand, observations show that school life under favorable eondi- tions impedes the physical development of the children. and this is most mark. ed in charity schools Measurements. made at the duke of Yerks school at Chelsea show that the children are the sons of soldiers. and therefore of & class selected for physical fitness, were until recently very inferior in stature and weight to boys of their own class living in their own homes. A similar falling off has prevailed at the Blue Coat school among! boys belonging to a higher class of so- eiety, in consequence of bad sanitary arrangements and probable faults in the feeding and discipline of the in-i mates. The average stature of boys of different classes of the community val ries between the best-nurtured boys in our public schools and the worst-nur-i tured class in our industrial schools to the extent of about seven inches in boys of the age of fourteen years.
 A fact of rather peculiar nature has also been brought to light by anthro- pometry-namely, that girls from eleven to fourteen years are taller and heavier than boys of corresponding ages The aver age height of Scotch-agrieultural labor CTS Galloway is feet 10.5 inches; Eel lows of the Royal society. 3 feet 976 inches; athletes, 5 feet s34 inches; luna tics, feet 57O inches criminals, 5 feet 5.60 inches; Herefordshire laborers, s feet 5.35 inches and idiots and imbe- ciles, feet ASA inches.

Where Our CountryTnen Spend Their Time
 When in Europe.
 All the Americans who come abroad do not go to Paris, or if they do, theiI; presence is not recorded at the police offices. The prefect of police had the names of 2s,0 ,000 Americans returned to him by Parisian hotel-keepers in 1899, and he thinks nearly as many more were lodged in private houses, apart lnents, or pensions, making total of 54, GOO, which corresponds with the es- inmates obtained from other sources.
 The permanent American colony resi- dent i'll Paris numbers at this time about 2 300. Formerly it was larger but since the Paris exposition of 1889, when prices of living were considerably advanced, never to be restored to their former level, it has been decreasing. After Paris, Berlin has perhaps the largest American colony in Flu transient visitors is not more than half as large. Then comes Dresden, with colony numbering ,0O0. The number of American visitors who go annually to Dresden is between 20, 900 and 24.000 Geneva has an American colony of 250, and is visited yearly by upward of 20, ,000 Americans, who. it is estimated, spend $l 300 900 there. The hotels in Lucerne. from May 1 to Octo- Der l, 1899, sheltered 9641 guests, and a,O00 more found accommodations in private lodgings and pensions. There is no permanent colony at Lucerne.
 Carlsbad, which is so much visited by Americans, had, in 1892. 2,224 of them who paid cure tax. Vichy, Aix-les- Rains and Wiesbaden had each about half that number. Nice has had each season for the last six years from ls,00o to 20, 1000 American visitors. Rome, which has permanent colony of 200, is much visited, the number of Americans there last year was estimated at 5o,0Oo. Florence had nearly the same number, and the amount of money spent by Americans in Italy each year is esti- mated at @20, ,000, ,000. Francis E. Loom is. in Iippincotts.,
