further illustrate the subject,
bringing before the eye the
colors and styles OF the suits worn by
the old Continentals. officers and men,
the minute men, the volunteers, indie

that time, and the regulars of all
branches and all times during and since
the revolution. The illustrations OF
general and staff uniforms are portraits
of noted soldiers of the times they cover,

APPLETON, Wis, Jan. 19.-Major
Sims, the A. p. A. lecturer was mobbed
at Kaukauna. The mob of 1900 peo-
pie collected outside the hall, and stoned
the building. Sims and q party Of friends
barricaded the doors and resisted the as
saults Of the mob. The sheriff Of Outa-
gamis county was sent for
by Mayor Reuter-, who al
so autographed for militia, which
Governor Peck denied unless asked for
by the sheriff. The sheriff partly dis
persed the mob and with the help of
local officers escorted Sims to his board
ing place. The mob followed, throwing
stones. Sims was knocked senseless by
a stone, but officers fought the mob of
and got him safely to his lodging.
The mob then dispersed. Sims was
escorted to a train in the morning
by three men armed with Winchester
rifles and left for Ashland. Bitter feel.
ing has existed for several months al

Been Done TO Relieve the Treasury.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1y.-Senator Tel
Ter, the leader Of the silver men in the
senate. In discussing the condition
of the treasury and the talk of
legislation for it's relief, said that the
proper solution Of the problem was to
be found in the coinage of the silver
bullion in the treasury.
at is bad policy" he said, ''to borrow
money when the government has on
hand and lying idle, material from
which money can be made. What the
country wants is more money, not more
gold especially, and ffty-ivs mill
ions could be added Immediately
10 this fund, by issuing certificates
against the seignorage of the silver
bullion now in the treasury. This could
be followed by the coinage of the entire
amount of this bullion. 1t is, / know,
claimed by some that the law under
which this bullion was accumulated re-
quires that it shall be held in the
treasury in sufficient amount to redeem
the certificates against it, but this Is a
mistake. 1t requires that the csrtifi-
Gates shall be redeemed in coin, and
under the practice of the treasury de-
partment in redeeming the certificates
in gold it is evident that it is entirely
unnecessary to hold so much silver in
the vaults of the treasury for this pur-
pose"
Mr.. Teller thinks the secretary has
authority to begin the immediate coin
age of this silver bullion, which amounts
to about $40, 0O0, 900. He expresses the
opinion that if the secretary does not
choose to exercise this p~rerogatiye BON
gress will adopt a measure making the
authority explicit and putting it beyond
question.
From what the silver advocates in both
houses of congress say, it becomes every
day more and more apparent that they
will a~ntagonize any proposition for fur
Their legislation regarding bonds by an
effort to first secure the coinage of this
bullion, and they are generally OF the
opinion that such a substitute would
stand a better chance of becoming a law
than would a bond bill.

Lacks Specific verifcation.
CLEVELAND, Jan. 1.-THE Iron Trade
Review this week says: While the gen.
eral impression still prevails that indus
try is on the road 70 improvement, and
that the iron trade is responding to the
movement in other lines. it is still diff
cult to marshal specific Indications OF
betterment. In none of the primary
markets for iron has there been any con-
siderable buying in the week just clos
ing. The plight of the ore trade,
to begin with, has been emphasized by
the failure of an important Gogebic
producer. and the protests 0 moving
to Washington from all over the Lake
Superior region are strongly reinforced
by this demonstration that the iron ore
producers of the country cannot stand an
added finger weight of competition.
In pig iron there Ia little disposition on
either side of the market TO make a
move. The expectation Is general
among pig iron producers that q better
demand is Just ahead. and most OF them
are cautious about forcing matters.

Lynch law had its origin in Virginia,
according to the conclusions Of a gen.
tleman who has been investigating the
early history of that state, 1t was not
mob law, as it is now understood. 1t
was orderly, methodical and fair in its
processes and was strongly opposed to
violence or mob rule. Its distinctive
feature was simply that its DEGREES and
findings were executed sternly and
swiftly upon the spot of their delivery.
Charles Lynch, whose name is asso-
ciatad with the summary proceedings
now known as acts of lynch law,
was a Revolutionary soldier and after
tho war ended took up bis residence in
Pittsylvania county. The region in
which no lived became at n period of
the Revolution infested by bands of
Tories and outlaws, whose depredatioas
