nerve, resulting in impairment of vision,
even to the exteut of blindness; dizziness
or vertigo; tobacco asthma; nightly sutfo-
cation: dull pain in the region of the
heart, followed later by sharp pains, pal
~pitation and weakened pulse, result
ing i'll fatal heart disease. 1t also causes

Without doubt the T~ehuantepec rail-

Coatzaeoalcos, and the southern, OF Pa

ships, with plenty Of water, while at
Coatzacoalcos there is a superb harbor
with a hard clay bottom and no sand

that he seems to know all about the To-
cation as we'll as the contents Of nearly
every one Of the 700, 900 books in his
charge.
Mr.. spoford's father was q clergy
man who we'll knew the great advan-
tages Of q good, education and employed
private tutors to prepare his son for the
battle Of life. When l6 years of age,
young spoHord removed to Cincinnati,
abandoning a college course because Of
his i'll health, and engaged in the book
selling and publishing business. During
this time be gained the wide familiarity
with authors and their works that
proved SO valuable to him later in life.
In 1850 BIO became associate editor Of
the Cincinnati Daily Commercial, and
In 1861 President Lincoln appointed
him first assistant librarian Of congress.
Three years later be vas made librarian
in chief and has since occupied that
very important post. When he entered
upon the discharge Of his duties, the
National library had but 10. 200 vol
umes, and Mr.. Spof7ord has seen it
grow to ten times that number. He has
also seen it leave its old cramped quar-
tiers in the capitol and take possession
Of the new Congressional library build
ing, which has accommodations for
1000, 900 books. ALI American copy
rights are issued from his Office, and a
vast amount Of work is done yearly by
himself and big assistants.
Mr.. Spofford is a member Of numer-
ous historical and philosophical socie-
ties, and in 1854 Amherst conferred
upon him the degr>e Of doctor Of laws.
He has written a great deal Oh histor-
zeal, literary and economic topics and
has edited several collections Of choice
literature. When Lew Wallace was writ
ing Ben ur," he wanted q book de-
scribing chariot races. Mr.. Spoford
told him that the only book Of the kind
in the United States was on a certain
shelf in the Atheneum library, Boston.
Boston officials were unable to find the
book, but Mr.. Spofford from memory
made a diagram of the library and the
shelves and indicated exactly where
the book could be found. General
Wallace followed the diagram, and thus
secured the book.

round both were bleeding at the nose, and
in the succeeding rounds IL was give and

In the 18th round Madden's stock went
up again when he jabbed Conners fivs
times in the mouth without . return.
Madden had the fight in his hands from
this time on, though Conners made a
game attempt to force the fighting in the
20th round.

He sent his left into Conners' stomach

GOVERNOR MATTHEW'S IDEA
He is Disappointed In CIeveIand's
Letter-Some There Are Who
Believe Harrison VIII Be a
Bimetallist Candidate.

DENVER, April ga special to the Neu
from Indianapolis, says: Governor Mat
thews has given the following expression
on the silver question.
II read the letter of the president to the
Chicago business men and il was to me a
disappointment. 1t was not up to the ex.
pectation created by the notices in adj
vance OF it's coming and the well-knowu
clearness with which the president usually
expresses himself. No one can doubt the
honesty or the strength Of Clsveland's
convictions, but in this letter he does not
satisfy it, and he neglects to point out the
way to relieve the situation or to sec ure
the soundness of our national currency.
He generalizes-the people expected him
to particularlzs.
ut is easy to speak in general terms of
sound money The people are beginning
to look With alarm upon the continued
use OF the terms sound money silver
mine owners and international none
tary conferences in dismissing the treat
ment of the financial problem. The
belief is growing that the gold monomet-
allist is as uncompromising and as selfish
as the so-called silver monometallistc could
be.
'"To the banking interest there is but
hseAo ocoot tuot tue souuu money phrase
means the gold standard alone; but this
interest comprises but small part of our
citizens. 1t is the high privilege and SOL
emn duty OF our government to sacredly
guard and protect the interest of the cred-
itor and debtor classes of its citizens
alike, neither one more than the other.
All sections and all interests are equally
interested in the prosperity of their couu-
try and should be recognized in the shap-
ing OF national policies.
ut has been demonstrated beyond a
doubt that the business OF the country
cannot be conducted upon the sin gle
standard, be that either gold or silver. I
am sorry that Mr.. Cleveland, who is so
capable of doing it, did not more fully de-
fine his views on the financial question
and announce a method that would have
given no cause for doubt or misconstruc-
ton.
"Not in an unfriendly spirit towards
Cleveland have thus expressed myself
concerning his letter; nor as a radical
an uncompromising silver man, which /
am not; nor even as bimstallist, which
am, true and honest definition of that
term as a citizen feeling that we have
now to consider q question that seriously
affects the prosperity of the country and
like Banquo's ghost, will not down. 1t is
a living issue and unless conditions radi-
cally and magically change, will be the
dominant issue of 1896-possibly the strug-
gle between gold monometallism and a
true bimetallism."
