these bonds can he deposited a sceiiri-
ty for the circulation of National
hanks. that the hanks be restricted to
the isstle of notes of not less denomi-
nation than SO, and that the silver
certificates of $40 and upwards be re-
placed by certificates under SO IN
amount. Ii is also suggested that the
duties on ali imports be made payable
in gold. In the present ticklish siiua-
ton of the Treasury and the undoubt-
ed impairment of the GoverDments
credit il is patriotic duty 20 adopt any
means TO sustain National credit and
honor, but il is very doubtful if the
silverites will accept the sop offered
them in the proposed increased circn-
laticn of the white metal and assist 10

bankruptcy. Ii is most deplorable that
the Government should thus be COM
PEELED to add many millions to its
debt, when by slight addition to the
duties on imports its Golfers could be
filed but of such are the ways of cur
present rulers. Democratic tinkering
with the revenues and finances Of the
nation has brought Us to that condition
where our income falls below our ex-
penses, and the only remedy left is TO
further mortgage our property for ten-
norary relief.

Smoking Kills a Baby.


CoNNELLsvILLE, Pa. Jan. 2l.-Michael.
the 3-year-old son of Anthony Rudak,
miner at Leisenring No. !. died yester-
day from nicotine poisoning. Ever since
the boy was old enough to hold a pipe or
the stump of cigar in his mouth he has
been an inveterate smoker. His father
taught him as joke. Early attempts to
use the weed made little Michael sick,
but in time he became accustomed to take
a smoke after his meal just the same as
his father.
1t was great sport for Rudak's compan-
ions. who were wont to visit him. They
would all sit about the room and the boy
in their midst would vie with them in
sending out huge puffs from strong pipe.
About a year ago the child began 10 show
strong appetite for Tobacco. The
strongest brands did no, make him diz-
~, and one ofthe viiest pipes in his faith
er's possession was his constant conpan-
ion. Six months ago Michael began to
loose flesh rapidly. He lost his appetite
for everything except tobacco. He WAS
peevish and fretful. The parents, being
ignorant, humored him in furnishing
tobacco on all occasions. From sturdy
child weighing 30 pounds Michael fell
away until he was mere skeleton.
\ few days ago some American neigh
bors learned of the Rudak boys serious
condition. They advised the parents 10
call in physician. This was done, but
tho nbvsician was una ble IN save his life
A few hours before death the little fellow
pleaded with his mother to fill up his
pipe and give him a smoke.

Jerry simp sons Blue Talk.

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-CongreSsman
Jerry Simpson addressed the Manhattan
Single Tax Club in Chickering Hall to-
night. Although introduced rs Popu-
list Congressman, he denied the classifi-
cation, saying that he did not believe that
a man should belong to party, but the
party To the man. Moreover. whenever
he found party more nearly suited to
his views than the Calamity Howlers''
of Kansas, he intended TO join it.
All the trouble in the country, accord
ing 10 Mr.. Simpson, is due to the rapid
concentration of wealth. Congressman
are the paid attorneys of trusts, and the
system of government is one of brigand-
age.
He predicted that % per cent. of the
next generation will be criminals, and
expressed the gravest fears that his own
might be one of the number. He had
no fear for himself, as, he said, he could
not sink any lower than the level in
which he moved.
The millionaires made all the crimi-
mails, precipitated ali the strikes and call
ed out the militia. Self-government by
the people he despaired of, as the people
would not be educated in the only theory
single tax on land values-which would
redeem the Government and make every
body happy.

Mexico Thirsts Fo- War.


CITY OF MEXICO, Jan. 2s.-Nothing il

papers are siding with the Diaz Govern
ment. and some eXtravagant profiers of
aid are made from foreign residents. Z. c.
Ord Grand Army Post has passed reSolu-
tions of fealty to the Government. i
number of nion veterans, including an
American general, have signified their
willingness 10 go to the front for Mexico
if their services will Toe accepted. The
memorial will be presented to General
Diaz Tuesday by a committee from the
post.
Captain Mcdonald, of the Texas Rang
ers, has rendered his services 10 Colonel
Il. c. Fate, with 800 scouts, in case of war.
Colonel Pate served with General Joe
Shelby in Mexico at the close of the Civil
War, and at his call thousands would
cross the line.
The President and several members Of
the Cabinet were IN secret session all day.
1t is said the Government is now study

The pair were indicted for setting fire
to the house of Lewis Weinberg, I7S
Canal street, on October =. This crime
is regarded by Law as only next in de-
gree of Nervousness to that of murder
Itself, as it consists in setting fire to
a house used as dwelling in the night
time. The fact that no lives were lost
in the ease was no fault of the prison.
