JEFFERSON on BANKS.
The Government Must do the Banking.
Those Who Claim to follow Jefferson
Should Revise Their
Creed.

Oh, for Jeffersons to advocate in
these days the issue OF paper money
only and do away with banks of issue.
The following are some Of the many
declarations Of Mr. Jefferson on the
questions of money:
"And the nation may continue to
issue its bills as far as its wants re-
quire and the limit of its circulation
admit. Those limits understood to
extend with US at present to 5000, ,OOO,-
600 = greater sum than would be
necessary for any war. But this is
the only resource which the govern
ment could command with certainty,
the states having unfortunately fool
ed away, nay, corruptly alicnated to
swindlers and shavers under the
cover Of private banks. Say, too As
~ an additional evil, that the dis
possible funds of Individuals to this
great amount have thus been with.
drawn from plovements and Useful
enterprise, and employed in the use
less usurous and demoralizing plac-
tees Of bank directors and their ac-
completes. In the war OF 1875 our
state availed itself Of this fund by is
suing q paper money bottomed on a
specific tax for its redemption, and
to insure its credit, bearing an in
terest Of 5 per cent. In . very short
time not q bill Of this emission was
to be found in circulation. 1t was
locked up in the chests Of executors,
guardians, widows, farmers etc. We
then isued bills bottomed on re-.
deeming tax, bu: bearing no interest.
These we're readily received. and
never appreciated single farthing."

runs to the rooms above, and on the left OF
| this hall is the parlor, a long apartment
which runs the entire length of the house.
It's polished floor is covered with rugs,
handsome pictures look down from the
walls and about on dainty tables are pho
tographs of friends and other pretty orna-
ments. On one table stands huge
earthen pot decorated with scenes of In
dian life in Arizona, and from a corner of
a shelf bronze bust of an Indian chief in
full feather looks down in massive rugged
ness. The little sitting-room on the right
hand is warm and bright, and when the
sun comes creeping in through the big
bay-window it dances about on shining
picture-frames and many quaint curios
standing side by side with the most mod
ern of civilized inventions. AT the back
of the sitting-room is small picture
gallery and it is here that most of the
many relics of Indian life are placed. A
huge painting of the general in full uni
form IS hung in view, and the likeness is
striking one.
General Miles spends all of his day
down at his office in the department, and
the evening he devotes to writing on his
book, which will probably soon be issued
from the press. This volume will embody
his experiences in his many campaigns,
and will be full of thrilling interest. The
general is most domestic man and never
caring nothing for club life, and always
being accompanied abroad by his wife and
daughter.
There are but two children in the family,
the oldest one young lady in society.
This is Miss Cecilia, who is handsome
girl with graceful figure and fondness
for out-of-door sports. She is an excellent
rider on horseback and on the wheel, is
fond of society and will be among the
pelles of the coming season at the capital.
The other child is boy of about 13,
a very fine-looking lad with clear rosy
skin and pretty blue eyes, while his
athletic figure gives token of 1.-THE, strong
man in the future. His name is Sherman,
being so called after his mothers family.
Sherman will attend school in this city,
and when he is grown, so he now declares,
he will adopt his fathers life and 60 into
the army.
Mrs. Miles is not going to be lonesome,
for her sister, Mrs. Senator Cameron, lives
put few blocks away, and little further
on is the home of her uncle, Senator Sher-
man. Mrs. Miles was Miss Sherman,
and met General Miles at the home of
General Sherman while she was on visit
to Washington. She was married in
Cleveland, and then went to live with her
husband at Fort Hays in Kansas.

Let none take offense at the title of this
sketch for the idea is not to hurt the
strong men of the grand old military
school of the Hudson, but to help the
weak boys in the new military school of
the California Sierra.
The institution is under the control of
board consisting of three members, who are
appointed by the Governor for terms of four
years each. The board appoints the superin-
tendent, secretary and military instructor; all
other officers are appointed by the superin-
tendent, with the consent and approval of the
board. The school consists of three
departments; namely, academic, military and
industrial; and each boy is pupil in each de-
partnen-t:-From the Preston School Circular

Mrs. Miles Chats About the
New Woman.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 16.-If
there is happy household at the capital
this winter that of our new commander of
the army must certainly be counted, and
if there is woman who is proud wife
and mother Mrs. General Miles can surely
be so called. With her husband ranked as
one of the highest officials of the Nation,
two handsome children and host of rela-
tives and friends in town, it is safe to say
that there is no happier woman in Wash
ington to-day than Mrs. Nelson A. Miles.
General Miles has leased for one year
the brick house on the corner of G and
Twentieth streets, a section of the town
which is full of old residents and is COM
monty known as the 'army and navy
quarter" of the city. 1t is only three
blocks from the huge white War, State
and Navy Department, and is in neigh
borhood of pleasant people, for just op-
posite is the home of the famous Arctic
explorer, General A. Greely, and on the
next corner is the big old-fashioned resi-
dence of Secretary Herbert. The Miles

heard of her since, and have no idea who
she was or where she came from.
And now will you take run with the
superintendent through the splendid red
sandstone schoolhouse in Amador? The
stone is quite like that of which the
Spreckels palace is being built on Van
Ness avenue, and taken from a quarry
only four miles distant. 1t is on the top
OF red hill and the grounds are nearly
400 acres in area and dotted with native
oak and pine. Olive trees and other semi
tropical plants are set here and there, and
the grounds in time will be singularly
beautiful. The water is exhaustless, with
fall that carries it twice as high as the
tower of the highest building. AS you ap-
proach the main edifice you note that
every side of the red hill has been torn
and washed away by miners in days of old.
The campus, the garden, the drill and
parade grounds, all have been made pre-
sentable and pleasant by the boys leveling
down little mountains of tailings and fill
ing up pits, bitches and reservoirs. Some
times they pick up pieces of gold and gold
fiecked quartz. Mr.. McAuley, who mined
hereabouts forty years ago, told me that
shower, he saw something shining in a
little rivulet, and picking it up he found it
to be piece of gold weighing $56.
You expect to hear quite a racket as you
enter the stately portals where two hun
dred boys are housed, eh2 Well, it is as
quiet as a church, and yet as busy as a.
hive of bees. The only boys eligible are
those between s and IS, the noisiest period
of all, and yet not one loud word or act.
And the secret of it all? Kindness, gen.
tleness, confidence. Mr.. Bank, the surer
intendent, begged and finally got permis-
sion to take eight boys, eligible because of
extreme youth, from San Quentin; and.
although a stranger to them at first he
soon SO won their hearts that he, with only
a single companion part of the way, took
the eight boys all the way to lone, put
pretty military uniforms on them, and
with only their words of honor for bond
made them free little gentlemen and his
daily companions and the companions of
his family. 1 do not know who deserves
the warmest praise for this, the boys or the
man. only know that this marks new
era in the Brotherhood of man.
The books of record kept here are curl
Gus and thorough. They are all based on
the idea that nobody is bad, only unfor-
tunate. A boy may be born and finally
brought here with but little inheritance in
the way of brains. The facts are all set
down, and the plan is to build up his for
tunes where deficient. The next thing

Great numbers of people suffer from the ma
lign poisons of catarrh as from other supr7e
chronic maladies, without any correct or def
mite idea of the nature of their affliction. The
following symptoms have been carefully ar
ranged by Drs Copeland, Neal and Winn to en-
able many sufferers to understand just what 1t
is that ails them. Many diseases known under
various specific names, are really OF catarrhal
origin and nature. Every part of the mucous
membrane, the nose, throat, eyes, ears, head,
lungs, stomach, liver, bowels, kidneys and
bladder are subject to disease and blight by
catarrh. The proper course for sufferers is
this: Read these symptoms carefully over,
mark those that apply TO your case and bring
this with you to Drs. Copeland, Neal and Winn.
II you live away from the city send them by
mail and ask for mail treatment. In either in
stance, and whether by mail or Office treatment,
the patient may be assured of the speediest
relief and cure possible to medical science. No
better evidence can be furnished to substan-
tiate this claim than the statement of Mr..

will frankly say for myself that if had
had nv deserts when boy should have
been appointed to a place like this, had
there been such, and so, perhaps, amounted
to something-mayb have risen to be a
mighty soldier; for I had the strength and
endurance, often the ferocity of a wild
beast; but, being so entirely imaginative
and battlesome, I really had not sense
enough, half the time, to keep out of

this. And yet, [ was not wicked, or lazy,

Bismarck Worship.

The worship of Bismarck is measure OF
the Germans love of his constitutional
federation, and this love of unity and
empire will not decrease after the people
shall have learned that Germany's unity
was achieved less by Bismarck than by a
current of public opinion well represented
by the then Crown Prince Frederick, or,
as he was affectionately called, "Unser
Fritz"
Bismarck not merely did not create Ger
man unity; he was personally strongly
opposed to it.
He was then, as he remains to-day,
typical of the Prussian landed aristocrat@
loyal to the Prussian crown and incapable
of any views broader than the acres from
which he lived.
He believed in strong army as a means
of conquering new territory from his
neighbors. and also for preventing popular
demonstrations at home.
He believed that Prussia was destined to
be the only German state of importance
because he believed Prussia capable OF
forcing one small state after another ia
accept Prussian rule-Cosmopolitan.
