Dallas. Tex, April 12.-One OF the
most remarkable and miraculous incl
dents on record In any history hap
pencd to the little 2-year-old infant Of
Mr.. j. W. Rankin, on Washington
avenue yesterday.
Police Officer Mcdaniel reports the
story, as follows:
u was walking along Washington
avenue. Az ! passed the residence OF
Rankin. I noticed a little baby on It's
all foura peepiug over the edge of Il
we'll which had no ubOye-ground curb.
The little one leaned far over the curb,
and seemed to be reaching for some
thing. 1 stood aghast, looking over
the fcnAn Once more the baby eS-
tended itb hand, this time further than
before. IT fell and with dos
rerate effort to regain It's equilibrium,
plunged head forward, Into the wei.
l rushed to It's rescue, as did both of
iis parents, all expecting to find the
infant crashed to pieces from tho tor
rihle fall into a thirty foot well, which
did not have n drop Of water In IT,
but to our amazcment, the child was
drawn up with scarcely n scratch, save
a slight injury to one Of It's arms.
a large crowd soon gathered on the
spot and the well was measured. II
required a reach OF 50 feet 3 inches to
reach the bottom.
The effect OF the accident was to
strengthen the belief Of those under
whose observation It came in the guar
dian angel theory.

WAGES AND FREE SILVER.

The census of 1890 showed that there
were "a. 400. 900 persons in the United
States who would come under the gen.
eral classification of wage earners whose
annual compensation reached the enor-
nous aggregate of s9.4s5. 600. 900. This
vast sum was paid in money of full pur-
chase power. That is. each dollar was
so good that a better could not be. Not
so many dollars are paid now, there is
reason to believe. as in 1890, but the
payment in the aggregate is a vast sum.
Now, it stands to the reason of the aver
age person that all OF these billions of
dollars should be as good as the best, or
else these "a, 400. 900 of people are to be,
weli-swindled, as they will be If they
are paid In any other money that is not
on a parity with gold in purchase power.
TO take a cheaper money-a money with
less purchasing power: and. though a
million Of men were in the armies or
about them, wage did not advance in
any such ratio as TO make up for the
depreciation Of the paper money.
1t is now proposed to adopt a none
tary system which is sure to make the
dollars in which labor is paid less val
liable thar those which. under the gold
basis, constitute the present money of
the country. Even the champions Of the
policy of stamping fifty cents worth of
silver bullion one dollar admit hat the
prices of commodities will be much high
er in their silver dollars than in gold.
Now, 1t Is a fact that the bulk. of the
50. ACC. 00o, 900 paid as wages and salaries
is expended every week in purchasing
the ~necessaries OF life. The dollar now
is as good as gold because 1t a be ex-
changed for gold indirectly 1t pur-
chases as much sugar. meat, cloth. etc.
In Mexico the silver dollar purchases

THE LIGHT ARTILLERY.

The indianapolis Light Artillery took the
first prize and the Rockville Light Artil-
lery the second prize at the big drill in st.
Louis last week. The first prize was $1,000.
Good for Indiana.-Gibson Leader.
Indianapolis is justly proud of her Light
Artillery, and the whole State is proud
over the achievement of the two Indiana
companies in the competitive drill at st.
Louis. indianapolis secured first premium
and Rockville second owes competitors with
a national reputation. Where Indiana
points her guns is victory.-Muncie Times.
The whole State has reason to feel proud
Of the honors which have come to Indiana
through the repeated victories of the In
dlanapolis Light Artillery. 1t vas the for
tune of the editor of the Tribune to observe
the early struggles of this now famous COM
pany to obtain a high place among these
civilian-military bodies. Its excellence has
been maintained only at the expense of the
greatest diligence and the enforcement Of a
discipline not less rigid and hardly less
severe than that which distinguishes the
regular service from the class to which the
Indianapolis Light Artillery belongs. The
people of Indianapolis cannot esteem too
highly the honor which each successive VIC
tory brings to it.-Hammond Tribune.
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1895-07-12

but half as much Mexico has free COIN
age Of silver. and silver is the only
money. If we should have free coinage
Of silver. silver would be the money
with which wage would be paid. The
silver dollar might have more purchase
power than the Mexican dollar, but.
compared with gold, IL our silver dollar.
with free coinage. had three-fourths as
much value in the purchase of the neces-
saries of life. o~ne-fourth of the $780,
000.o 900 would be wiped out until wages
could be advanced % per cent. With the
disturbance which a change of money
would occasion. a long time would pass
before wages could be advanced to a
rate which would make up for the sill
yer depreciation.
In view of these plain facts, would 1t
not be wise for wage-earners some of
whom are passing free-coinage resolu-
tons. to refuse to sustain the PROPOSE
ton Of the silver mine owners until some
provision is inserted in the f~ree-coinage
act by which wages shall be paid in
enough silver money TO make it equal to
gold? AS this is impracticable, would it
not be far more sensible for wage earn
ers TO unite against the proposition
which would double the dollars of mil
~lionaire mine owners and deprive wages
Of half their power Il buy the neces-
saries of life?
