TO RESUME SILVER COINAGE.
A Limited Amount of Standard Dol
1nrs to he Made.

Washington July T.-Secretary Carlisle,
it is understood, will give direction, within
a few days to resume, to a limited extent
the coinage OF standard silver dollars at
the mints of the United States. Since the
repeal of the Sherman silver purchase law,
last November, silver coinage has been
virtually suspended, only about 500 silver
dollars having been struck off bearing the
date of 1894 This coinage of silver for the
remainder of this year will not probably ex-
coed 81 100000. It's coinage will not affect
the amount of money in circulation, as for
every dollar of silver coined a 81 silver Ger
tifcate will be retired. The coinage, how
ever. will increase the silver segniorage
now in the treasury but still uncoined
mis- now amounts to about $55, 900, 900.
More Gold Ordered.

ce;ved orders to forward additional amounts
Of gold to Europe. In consequence steam

The Lie Given.

General Butler had remarked that about

was on in that very grove when he met
Chamberlain and his republican myrmidonS,
and how he had helped the people secure
their liberties and political freedom.
Then Henry TOWneS cried out: Yea gem
eral and the rascals burned your house
for it!'
There was a tall, lank man standing a
few feet from General Butler on the stand.
He was Mr.. John Atkinson. He had sew
eral times put in a word or two during Gen
eral Buffers speech. This time he cried:
HE denied all that in Washington though
Atkinsonwas probably referring to the Ham
burg riot.
General Butler did not recognize the
speaker, but quick as a flash he turned in
the direction of the voice and said: "It is
a lie! I don't care who said til say it's
a lie!'
Mr.. Atkinson did not reply. He tattooed
but made sign of answering The scene
that followed was terribleit was serious
it was desperate. Men rushed up to the
stand with their hands their pistols;
others cursed, and the danger signal was out.
There were hundred women within few
feet of the stand, but that made no apparent
differenc. Fully a dozen of each faction

from the inside of the house, as a
stout, rosy and very good-natured
looking woman appeared at the front
door. Wont stay? Who won't stayP
I'd like to see anybody leave my house

of the invitation, and Yates, whose
natural gallantry was at once aroused,
responded with the readiness of cour-

about her plump shoulders, was love

was Of the cheapest material, it was
neatly cut and fitted; and her dainty
white pinafore added that touch of
wholesome cleanliness that was SO no
ticeable everywhere in the house. A

and a flower Of the spring just below

moro critical and less susceptible man

Miss Bartlett sat smilingly at one end
OF the table, and her father grimly at
the other. The mother sat at the side,
apparently looking on that position as
one Of vantage for commanding the
whole field and keeping her husband
and her daughter both under her eve.
The teapot and cups were set before
the young woman. She did not pour
out the tea at once, but seemed to be
waiting instructions from her mother.
That good lady was gazing with some
sternness at her husband, he vainly en-
deavoring to look at the ceiling or any
where but at her. He drew his open
hand nervously down his face, which
was OF unusual gravity even for him.
Finally he cast an appealing glance at
his wife, who sat with her hands folded
on her lap, but her eyes were unrelent-
ing. After moments hopeless irreso-
luton, Bartlett bent his head over his
plate and murmured:
For what we are about to receive,
oh, make us truly thankful. Amen"
Mrs. Bartlett echoed the last word,
having also bowed her head when she
saw surrender in the troubled eyes of
her husband.

WEALTHY BUT HARD UP.

The Trials of Young Man Trying to
Change Big Coin.
Many man has been land poor, but
the trials OF such one are as naught
compared with those Of a man who Is
rolling in wealth, but cannot spend it.
Aman went over on the South side the
other day with only nickel and
twenty dollar gold piece in his pocket.
He thought he had plenty Of small
change, but he found out to his sorrow
that he was mistaken. He paid the
nickel to go up. Then he finished his
business and caught cable car to get
back home. The conductor came along
and, after searching for change, the
man finally rendered him the gold
piece. The conductor looked at 1t,
turned 1t over, and handed it back.
Cant change it," said he, and the
man had to get off the car. He stepped
In the nearest saloon and ordered
drink.
"I'll wait until I've put down the
beer. Then I'll have to getm change"
But he didn't get 1t. The bartender
looked at the money, clinked 1t on the
bar, eyed it again, then winled. He
thought it was counterfeit.
"You can have the drink" was all
he said as he showed the gold piece
over to the man. It's owner worked
the same game on half dozen other
bartenders until free drinking began
to pail on him.
"Pll pawn it," quoth he. So he went
to the nearest pawnshop and offered
1t tothe man in charge.
How much will you give me on
this?" he asked. He was offered the
usual one-third of the value, for the
money-lender saw 1t was good coin.
But he thought It was stolen. for
never before had he heard of man
pawning gold piece. So, like the good
and conscientious lender that he was,
he summoned policeman, while he
kept his customer haggling over more
than ten per cent interest when he
only received six dollars and sixty
seven cents for his twenty-dollar
gold piece. The officer came. AS LUCK
would have it, he happened to know
the owner of the gold coin. 1t took a
lengthy explanation to tell his story,
and then he borrowed a nickel of the
copper to ride home on. That's all
that saved him from walking twenty
blocks. Chicago Times.

this time, for there was look in the
young mans face he did not quite like.
He took catch-as-catch-can attitude
and moved stealthily in a semi-circle
around Yates, who shifted his position
constantly SO as to keep facing his foe.
At last Bartlett sprang forward, and
the next instant found himself sitting
on piece OF the rock Of the coun-
try, with a Thousand humming birds

there for awhile until the surrounding
landscape assumed its normal condi-
