THE INDIAN RUNNER.

The following poem by Berger Weeks Applegate, appeared in tho July number of the Overland Monthly and is well worth reproduction anC reading:
 A purple sheet of cloudless sky
 That bends with downward slant to meet Gray. shifting sands. that silent lie
 BecaImed beneath the awful heat. No green blade springs in that sad land,
 No bird-wing beats the heavy air The marvel of blightin1 hand.
 Vast silent desert everywhere. Twilight, and then glow that dies
 With sudden shadows from on high, Save one long dull red line that lies
 Far down against the western sky. Across the deep. half sullen glare,
 A dark form passes swift and free, As though a spirit walked the the air
 Above a molten. fiery sea. A lato moon glows, sullen light,
 Low set among the saffron skies And swift beneath 1t, in his might,
 The swarth Apache runner fies With rumors of impending strife
 Along the frontier of the land He speeds with ever quicekning life.

New York, Nov. 27.-In an article
entitled, "An Essential Condition of
Prosperity" contributed to the Deem
Der number of the North American Re-
view, which will be published tomor-
row, the Hon. James II. Eckels, comp
troller of the United States currency,
comments that there can be no hope of
undisturbed and substantial prosperity
to all classes of American people I'M
less and until the whole currency and
banking system of the country is for
INFLATED into one harmonious plan, in
which parity shall be absolutely sound
in principle and the embodiment of a
monetary science. American financial
legislation has been of the most per-
nicious character, and bad legislation
in. the field of finance must always
exert a destructive influence on bust
ness. There is scarcely single act
upon the statute books affecting our
currency system which has not been
placed there simply to meet some emer-
gency that confronted the country at
the time in the belief that a difficulty
might be bridged over.
He cites as an example of emergency
measures the greenback. The green

fiat money, in which he includes silver
free coinage. The national bank cur
rency measure was also an eXpedient
to provide a market for the govern
ment bonds. 1t was valuable as af-
fording perfectly solid currency, but
not sufficiently elastic. The Bland ac.
and the Sherman silver act are re-
viewed.
The currency system of the country
resulting from the constant passing of
experimental laws has become so con-
fused and unsound that Mr.. Eckels
wonders not that we have suffered SO
much financial disaster during the
years of its construction. but that we
have suffered so little.
'1t is not at all surprising" says he,
that each morning the first inquiry
that addresses itself to the businesa
man of the country anxious to satisfy
himself as to business condition, is:
Have a thousand dollars of gold come
into the treasury or have a thousand
dollars of gold gone out of the treas
ury?P
No one can over-estimate the detri-
mental influence upon the country S
prosperity which such an uncertainty
breeds. 1t is an uncertainty which
calls halt upon every new undertake
ing and blocks every avenue of trade
IN which a busy people are engaged.

WON ON A FOUL.

Buffalo, n. Y. Nov. 27-One of the
most, scientific fights ever seen in Buff
falo was witnessed today, when Solly
Smith, of California, and Oscar Gard
ner, the Omaha kid, met in the rooms
of tire old Buffalo Athletic club, in a
15-round 60 The men were evenly
matched, and it is hard to tell what
the final outcome of the match would
have been mad not Smith lost his head
in the fifth round and punched Gard
ner before he had regained his feet
after a knock-down.
Both rlen were in prime condition
and at the end of the fifth round they
were as fresh as at the beginning
Neither man had any decided advan-
tage UP to the time the foul occurred.
The skill shown in avoiding each 9TH
er's swings, upper cuts and straight
punches can be realized, when il is said
only one hard blow found resting
place during the match, and that was
sent in by Smith, who tapped Gardner
on the jaw, sending him down.
IL was just before the foal and
Smith was so eager to follow up the
advantage that he forgot himself and
smashed Gardner while the latter was
rising.
The. preliminary bout was between
Jack Beatty. who whipped Bill Slavin
here, and Jersey Gordon of Philadel-
pAia. Beatty was given the decision
on foul.

PRINCESS BISMARCK'S DEATH.
She Was Severe Sufferer From
Brochitis.

BrOchItIS.
London, Nov. 27.-Princess &Bismarck
died at o'clock this morning.
Princess Bismarck duchess of Lauen-
burg, wife of Prince Bismarck, has
been in poor health for "a long time.
Her illness became pronounced two
months ago. She was deeply affected
and received a severe shock when the
death of her lifelong friend. Frau
Eugene Reckow. prioress of the Stolp
institute for married women, Was an
nounced. Three weeks ago DR.. Schfen-
enger was called to FREDERICKSBURG to
prescribe for a serious attack of neural
gia. Since that time she has been al
most continually under the care OF
physicians.
Princess Bismarck has for years been
suffering with bronchitis and gastric
catarrh Eighteen months ago she was
found lying in a pool of blood at the
foot of her bed. These fainting attacks
were repeated from time to time. The
immediate cause of death was dropsy,
complicated with heart disease. She
was cheerful and tried to deceive the
prince as to her real condition, spending
much of her time out of bed. Doctors
Schweninger and Chrysander regarded
her case as hopeless a month ago, but
concealed the truth from the prince.
When DR.. Schweninger gently broke
the news to the prince. he rose imme-
diately and remained silent for some
time at the deathbed. He had watched

broken down that the doctors insist
on his speedy removal to Friedrichs-
ruhe. There were present at the death
scene besides the doctors, Countess
Rantzau and Prince Bismarck's niece.
The funeral ceremonies will be on a
moderate scale, gut of regard for the
princes condition, The interment will
probably be at Schonhausen, the an
cestral home of the Bismarcks. 1t is
expected that the body will be removed
Saturday.
Early this morning the neighbors
called to offer coincidence, but the
prince only received Pastor Schumann
from Wossow. Prince Bismarck per-
sonally communicated the news to the
emperor and empress, who immediate
ly sent a long telegram of coincidence.
