 FINANCIAL SITUATION.
Before the Session Had Lasted Two Hours Decision Was Reached to Send the Mes- sage to Congress and the President at Once Set to Work Upon It.

ohce Set 10 Work upon It.

Those present, besides the president, were Secretaries Olney, Carlisle and Morton, Attorney General Harmon and Postmaster General Wilson. Secretar- out of town. Reports of the serious condition of affairs In Wall street had been coming in for an hour and after the cabinet assembled these were sent by The United Press as fast as re- Ceived to the treasury officials, who dis patched the information to Secretary Carlisle at the white house.
 Before the session had lasted two hours a decision had been reached to send to congress the message trans mitted later. At 1:S0 it was decided by the assembled officials to take a re- cess in order to give the president an opportunity to draft the message. MT. Cleveland set to work in preparing the document and probably had all his ideas in presentable shape when his officers returned an hour later. By this time it had become known that the gold withdrawals amounted to $3,- 100000, bringing down the reserve to $69,2SS,000, very nearly to the figure which was reached at the time of the first bond issue in February, 1894. The resreve at that time dropped to $65,- 650,000. At the time of the second is- sue in August, 1884, it stodd at $52,- 500,000, and when the third issue came in February, 1895, it was $41, ,393,OOO
 It was 4:40 when the cabinet meet ing adjourned. Twenty minutes before that time o. L. Pruden, assistant sec- retary to the president, had started for the capitol with copy of the mes- sage.

A Mean Franklin Glrl.

The Oil City Blizzard says: Mention is
frequently made in various papers OF the
"meanest man" in a community, but
now Franklin comes to the front and lays
claims to having the meanest girl IN Penn
sylvania. 1t is doubtful if any one Will
contest her claim to the title after reading
the following story, as related by herself to
a lady friend:
"Do you know" said the girl in a burst
of con idence, ''Of the scheme l have for

amiliez and have meyer yet failed to pro

The lady who repeated this story t
he Blizzard man recently had occasion t.
call the girl down, and says a day or 81
later she found a small bunch of rags il
! her bed room, which had evidently beel
thrown IN through an open window, an

Dead in His Bed

The most remarkable exhibition of
nerve ever saw" said C. A. Rodney, gs-i
eral agent of the Yandslia, occurred on a
Pennsy lvanis train. l was going east,
and in the same car with me was wo-
man and her husband who were travelling
from the west to New York The first
morning out the woman got out OF her
berth and told the porter that her
husband desired to sleep as he was not
feeling well.
"All that day the man remained IN his
bed, while his wife read the papers, play
ed cards and acted just the same as the
other passengers In the evening the
porter insisted on making up the berth,
and, pulling back the curtains he was hor'
rifed to find that the man was dead. 1t
was demonstrated that he had died some
time during the previous night. The woman
knew it, but explained that she did not
give the alarm because she was very anx.
| ious to reach her destination, and she was
afraid that if the conductor knew he
husband was dead she would have to leave
the train.
"All day she rode, knowing that her
husband was corpse a few feet distance
from her and yet she never betrayed the
fact and if the porter had not insisted on
changing the bed it is likely that sac
would have reached New York before tn
death of her husband was discovered
The corpse was taken from the train nea
| Pittsburg l have heard of nerve, bat
that beat anything that ever came to my
| knowledge"

tried and approved, and now prevails in a
majority of the States Of the Union. Oar
own is the only State of which we have

proportion to the number of taxables in
each district; Vermont the only one whi ch
distributes it according to the number Of

State school money in proportion TO the
number of children of school age in each

it on this basis. A system which has been
so well tried and is 50 generally approved
