TOWN TALKS.
Rents Most Be LOwered-Home Industry
Argument Revived.

Careful inquiry has convinced me that
1t will require heroic measures on the
part of landlords to tone down the future
interests of this town. A few weeks hence
there will be at least dozen less bust.
ness places than are now found open.
This should be hint to property owners
to act, and act at once. Many of the best
business people are complaining that the
hard times, heavy credit business and
high rents are gradually forcing them to
the wall
Many families of the town are in great
distress, aud in several instances they
have doubled up" in an effort to reduce
the rent. This saving with use of stoves
on the co operative plan is enabling them
to ''stand off " the effects of the times, to
some degree.
But in the midst of all these evidences
of striugency money is plentiful, except
as circulating medium. The deposits
as shown by the statements of the Mer-
chants and First National banks are
surprisingly large and the secretaries of
the saving funds say the payments come
in regularly. There is also considerable
money boarded privately by people who
would rather throw their savings into a
stove than trust them to the banks All
this money is tied up. No one wants to
invest until the financial cloud lowering
over the country gives some indication of
disappearing. 1t is hoped that when sun.
shine beams again the people who have
the means will roll up their sleeves and
do something towards giving the town
industries that will furnish the people
with dependence other than that fur
nished by the coal mines. If our capitalists
will step forward and show disposition
to put up their money they will find
many of less means, but who can give
some help, willing to follow their ex-
ample. Shenandoah can be made a place
of many industries that will come in very
handy when a dull coal market throws
the breakers idle. The cap factories of
town are breasting the hard times and
manage to distribute among some people
sums that come in handy in these times
These industries prove good stand-5ys

IN EAvOR nE Brazil
President Cleveland settles the Long Pend
ing boundary Dispute

AAb AFNAhifNtAhN AfAADuAEs
WAsHINGToN, Feb 7.-Tho president
yesterday announced his decision as arbi.
traitor between Brazil and Argentina in
the boundary dispute between the two
countries over the Missiones territory.
The decision is in favor of Brazil.
The TERRITORY involved covers an area of
8l,000 square miles, and has population
of about 1000 inhabitants In carly col.
onial times it was the subject of frequent
controversy between the crowns of Portu.
gal and Spain, and efforts have been made
in more recent times to arrange the dis.
putes between Brazil and Argentina by
treaty, but all without success up to this
time
The situation of the disputed territory
is of no little interest, not only from o
political but from military standpoint.
Its loss to Brazil would almost have cut off
the rich and populous state of Rio Grando
do Sui from the remainder of the repub-
lie, leaving only narrow neck of land of
something less than fifty leagues in width
as means Of connection. Thus the ter.
ritory of Missiones, if held by a foreign
power would be a continual menace TO the
peace and progress of Rio Grand do Sui, as
well as to the states Of the north Inas-
much as MissiODes has always been i'm the
possession Of Brazil, the willingness of the
latter to submit the matter to arbitration
has caused considerable favorable com.
ment.

Senators Discussing the Proposed Cable
Connection with Hawaii


Connection with Hawaii
WAsHr "oN. Feb. The Hawaiian
questio ~ eencral, and the Hawaiian
cable i'm particular, were the main themes
before the senate yesterday. The diplo-
matte consular appropriation bill was
taken up and would have been quickly
disposed of except for the item of $50U,OOO
for Immediately beginning cable construc-
tion between the United States and Ha-
wall. Mr. Mills, Of Texas, made a point
of order against the cable proposition
which is likely TO rule it out, but the de-
cision was withheld until senators could
further debate Hawaii
Mr.. Hale (Me) presented estimates
showing the prospective cost of the cable
TO be about ss,5JJ,O0O Mr. Platt Conn
upheld the cable project, and read early
presidential messages of Mr.. Cleveland
urging congress TO provide for the cable.
Mr. Platt also maintained that Great
Britain would build this cable if the
United States did not, thus linking Eng
land and Hawaii by commercial ties. Mr.
Teller tColoD renewed his criticisms Of
Secretary Herbert course toward Hawaii
Mr. Gray del defended the course of Sec
rotary Herbert and of the administration,
and caustically characterized the over
throw of Queen lii rs a "mean, paltry
conspiracy He declared it was about as
commendablo as n husband bcatinga wife
The Hawaiian debate was resumed today.
The bill for a new postoflice at Chicago
was passed without opposition.
The dobate in the house on the admins
tration bill authorizing the issue of $780,
100000 of gold bonds for the retirement of
the legal tenders and treasury notes was
not productive of marked incident of any
kind. A good deal of confusion existed
after o'clock, when the committee began
voting on amendments to this bill. Most
of the amendments were defeated as rap
idly as offered. The committee on bank
ing and currency sustained two defeats,
two of the amendments proposed by that
committee being voted down, They were
the amendment proposing to strike out
the section providing for the payment of
custom duties in gold, which was allowed
to stand amended SO as to make them pay
able in gold and silver, and that Compell-
ing national banks TO carry their reserve

A "LOcOed" Cow,

once helped to drive a COW from a
loco patch to a corral The distance
was not over a mile, and yet with
the help of another rider it took US
% hours to succeed.
The cow ran all over the place in a
silly, dazed way, until we got our
two horses close along each side Of
her, SO that she could not turn easily.
Her sight seemed defective. She fell
into an irrigation ditch that she could
easily have crossed, and we got her
out with no end of trouble.
Again. coming to fence pole lying
on the ground, she stopped abruptly
and commenced dancing and plung-
ing about in front Of it for some min
utes Then with great bound she
jumped over it as if it were two or
three feet high.
