A Famous Readle of Paris.

Discours, the beadle of the Church Of
st. Roch, in Paris, died on Saturday. He
was almost famous for his tall stature,
imposing air and portly figure, and was
at once the tallest of the Paris beadles
and the senior of them all. Provost, the
beadle of the Madeleine, stood next in
stature, and after him came the beadle
Of Notre Dame, an ex-drum major, who
was engaged two years ago by Archbish-
op Richard.
Discours was passionate lover of bill
liards and went every evening to play
at the Cafe Regence, where he used to
measure his skill with NJ. Grevy before
the latter was president of the republic.
He constantly saw there a man taller
than himself, Mr.. Theodore Tilton, the
American poet, who went TO La Re
gence TO play chess and was more than
match for Grevy. The post of beadle
in Paris church is much envied one
among the class of men who compete for
il. At Notre Dame, the Madeleine and
St. Clotilde the salary is SEQ, and there
are persnisites at grand weddings and
funerals. In smaller churches the pay
is $40. The gorgeous uniforms and sill.

Silver and the oregonian.

ED. JOURNAL: In the Oregonian in
an editorial leader under the head OF
Historical Facts About Money" we
find the following: "No nation has
ever succeeded In making a given guam
tity of silver and a given quantity OF
gold equal to each other. Every na-
ton has tried 1t aud every trial has
been failure. Never has 1t been
possible to hold the mint and market
ratios together. The present divergence,
though wider than ever before, is
strictly In kind with all former differ
ences or variations"
This is not historical fact but an
editorial fancy. In the report Of the
director of the mint, the Hon. Edward
o. Leach, to Hon. Chas. Foster, secre-
tary of the treasury, for the year 1891,
there is table of the Commercial
ratio TO gold each year from 1890 to
ls70," during which period Of $50 years
France, all the time, and the United
States part of the time, agreed to coin
gold and silver free and give both
metals power to pay all debts public
and private to any amount. In 1890,
silver stood at ratio Of 1902 to L; ana
In 1871 at 1857 to l. During that $50
years the commercial value and the
mint value neverIvarled to an appre-
clAble extent.
Hut when silver was demonetized In
1878 II sank steadily in value as COM
pared with gold, until 1894 when II
now stands about SO to l. That was
because il was no longer money that
could "pay debts both public aud pri-
vate TO any amount"
Silver will buy as much wheat today,
or cotton OF land, As II did In 1871, but
gold will buy twice as much. Why'
Because It is money and silver has
been degraded lntoa mere commodity,
and Is no longer money.
We cannot understand why an al
legged Republican paper stands out for
gold AZ an exclusive standard. IL h

PUSH THE STATE FAIR.

THE JOURNAL has tried, ut the FISK
of personal unpopularity, to awaken
the people of the capital city to the
necessity and importance Of pushing
the State fair, and rescuing 1t from q
dangerous state Of abnormal apathy.
Three. fourths of the money received by
the State fair from all sources Is spent
right here in Marion county. This is
true of ell State fairs.
This Is the reason why our people
should feel called upon to exert them
selves in its behalf more than people
who live at distance aud who cannot
attend the fair and cannot derive airy
benefits from It. Our people should
organize and make every effort to
make the fair success.
THE JOURNAL has been charged
with severely criticisinR the fair and
Offering no helpful suggestions to make
the fair better. This is not true. IHt
JOURNAL was the first to suggest =
press day aud address by Harvey Scott.
THE JOURNAL WAS first to suggest the
Iudian exhibit. THE JOURNAL worked
up the first fruit palace two years age,
largely with its own time aud money,
the best fruit exhibit ever shown at
Sllem or in Oregon. The fruit palace
last year was failure, but 30 were
other features. THE JOURNAL will be
found working unselfishly for the fair
under all circumstances but 1t will not
lie about 1t when to do so is to help
kill 1t. The truth must be told at
times when it is not pleasant TO do So
The fact is now the people Of Salem
ought to do more for the State fair
than they have ever done before. We
wish to speak plainly to the board.
They are no doubt doing the best they
know how, and are doing well in many
respects. But they should employ a
live secretary who will give it his en-
tire time to work it. up. All the energy
and best ability of a very competent
man Is not too much to make the fair a
success. He must have good help.

The use of oil in preventing boiler
scale now so prevalent is met with the
objection that in using other than stand
ard oil of $50 to 800 degrees fire test
there is danger of the formation of what
is called oil scale. This, according to
chemical authority, is owing to the fact
that when the higher fire test oils are
introduced they rise and float upon the
top of the water, and the latter, impreg-
mated with sediment and mud, boils
and bubbles up through the oil scum on
top, and on the water becoming vapor-
lied it liberates the particles of mud
and scale contained, which fall back
upon this layer of oil upon the top Of
the water. After awhile the layer Of oil
becomes SO impregnated with mineral
substances that it sinks to the bottom
of the boiler, forming an incrustation,
or Gil scale, which is as injurious to the
boiler as is the lime or magnesium
scale. But the same objection, it is re-
marked, has also been made to crude
petroleum. New York Sun.

DID THE HORSE PLAY THIS TRIcKi
How Two Spanish Gentlemen Happened to
Forget to PaY Their Check,


Forget to PaT Their Check.
There is small all night restaurant
in Twenty-eighth street basement
where gentlemen Of more or less bo-
bemian instincts sometimes 90 for a
quiet bottle and a taste of seasonable
delicacies.
AS ] sat there one night / observed
that the two sharp featured gentlemen
in dress suits who sat at the table next
TO mine had already dispatched their sec
Ond bottle of Chateau Yquem, besides
liberal array of toothsome edibles. They
were now chatting over their cigarettes.
The greater part Of the conversation was
in Spanish. Finally they gathered up
their overcoats TO 60 and as they step
ped toward the desk, apparently to set
tie the bill, one of them said to the
waiter, "Call in our cab driver and
give him drink. "
The jehu entered promptly. "I'n
leave the door open if you don't mind,
so as to keep an eye ON the hoss, he
said. "He plays tricks on me some
times.
The beaming might hawk" had raised
his glass. of liberal three fingers of
whisky, and was just remarking,
'Ere's looking at ye, gentlemen,
when he glanced out the open door and
realized that the "hoss that plays tricks
sometimes" was leisurely ambling off
toward Broadway. Dropping the glass
unemptied, he bolted for the door, close,
ly followed by the two gentlemen who
wore dress suits and talked Spanish.
The latter were laughing merrily, as
though the whole affair were q good
joke.
They didn't come back right away,
and when the cashier, somewhat uneas-
lily, went outside and looked down the
street, night hawk, "hoss," Spanish
gentlemen and all had disappeared.
Then the cashier came back behind
his desk. He looked ruefully at the fig
ures ON the unpaid check, banged the
cash register viciously as he rang up an.
other customers 10 cents for a cocktail
and remarked, "I'd like to know wheth.
er that 'hoss' was taught to play those
tricks or whether my Spanish friends
simply took advantage of what was
really an accident.
The worldly wise bartender stopped
rinsing glass, dipped towel disdain-
fully over his shoulder and said with a
pessimistic grin: There's more ways
than one to beat the house. never saw
that trick done before, but I've heard

honored as the typical philanthropist,
and Susan B. Anthony as the pioneer
refOrmer. The we'll known American
sculptor, Jonathan Hartley, was com
missioned to execute from life the bust
of Miss Anthony and had signed the
contract to model the ideal statue of
the typical philanthropist when Philip
Schuyler obtained an injunction to pre-
vent the execution of the work on the
ground that his relative, Mary Morris
Hamilton, was not a public character
of the same class as Susan B. Anthony.
The Hon. Walter S. Logan and
Charles DemOnd have defended the suit
for US with great zeal and ability, and
we are now ready to take it to the court
of appeals at Albany. 1t is said to be
the first case on record in which the
right to honor a humanitarian by an
ideal statue has been denied by the
court. New York Herald.
