Grevy was the most merciful, and next to him MacMahon, who, though sol- dier, found it hard to reject the appeals of the relatives of the condemned.
 Prince Bismarcks life at Varzin Is marked by the utmost regularity. Shortly after o'clock he rises and takes bath immediately. He then breakfasts. About 11:45 he goes for a walk in the park till about 12:3O, being accompanied by his two dogs. Tyras and Rebecca. When the prince has ended his walk he takes a substantial lunch, giving preference to cold fowl, crabs and the like. When the weather Is favorable he takes drive in the af- ternoon, which at times lasts three hours. On his return dinner is served. Regularly at Il o'clock the prince re- tires to bed. He sleeps much better now than in former years, as he is not 70 tormented by neuralgia pains.
 The director of the mint finds that his estimates of increased gold produc- ton are more than verified. The pro- duction of gold in the United States during the first six months of 1894 was slightly more than $1S,ooo.0o nearly 900 more than during the first half of 1893. He anticipates that the increase for the whole year will ex- ceed s7,eoo,0Oo, bringing the output of American mines for 1894 up to $43, ,000,- 900. which would be the largest produc. tion of gold in the United States since as7s, when the product was $51, 1,200. 900. 1t appears that the mines of South Africa and Australia are both yielding more gold than a year ago, and it is thought that the worlds product of the yellow metal this year will approach very nearly to $175, 5,OoO, ,O0O.

LUCAS AND TIE sENATORsHIP.

The Hot Springs STAR mentions Capt.
W. v. Lucas as a possible candidate for
the senate. In the Miners view the
point is we'll taken for several reasons
Capt. Lucas has proved himself an
able, prompt and efficient legislator in
a minority congress. He was schemed
out of "a denomination because he is too
manly a man to enter into disreputable
schemes for self advancement. The
homes of senator Pettigrew and Mr..
Gamble are in the same section of the
state, which is sufficient cause for
doubt of Pettigrews supremacy. The
southern half of the state cannot ask
for a senator and congressman; the
northern half will admit that the Hills

\ number of exchanges have named
Capt. Lucas as IA senatorial possibility
for the position now occupied by Sena-
tor P%ettigrew. The Pilot fears that for
a moment zeal has overriden the judy
ment of these of our editorial brothers.
Capt. Lucas has no more devoted friend

yet We believe at this time it would be
extremely unwise to push Capt. Lucas
as against Senator Pettigrew. 1t was
an act of folly to turn down. Mr.. Lu-
cas- at the last conventions; it will be
another act of folly to turn down"
Senator Pettigrew, even if SO good a
man as Capt. Lucas should take the
place. Let not the republican party
make two blunders in one year. When
two years more have rolled by and it
becomes necessary to elect some one to
fill the place now occupied by Senator
Kyle-then will be the time to push
Capt. Lucas to the senate, but not this
year as against Senator Pettigrew.

But if some contingency should
arise whereby Senator Pettigrew could
not be named, why not have Lucas
groomed for the race? And supposing
some of Lucas warmest friends should
persist in his being a c~andidate-'for
the best interests of the party or
some such purpose-would it be "folly"
for his friends to take kindly to such
possible promotion?

Just now. notwithstanding all that is
being said tothe contrary, a close study
of the situation cannot fail to reveal
the fact that the finger of fate points
palpably to Pettigrew, but in the event
of a possible change, it may be safely
averred that Dennis of Tayronca will
