Ford, an employe, who had ladle OF
molten iron left over, went out into the
yard and poured it into u receptacle
made Of sand and dirt, to form a pig OF
it, so tn 1t il could be used again. This

the epidemic of influenza. There have
been $50 deaths in Berlin alone. Among
those who have recovered from attacks
of this malady are the grand duke OF
Macklenburg- Schwervin, the princess of
Sake Meiningan, Prince Alexander of
Prussia and Herr Won Koeller, the Prus-
sian minister of the interior. Among
the new cases are the following: Prince
Hohenzollern, the princess Won Fursten-
burg, the daughter of the late duchess
of Sagan, Count and Countess Durcheim
and the noted Centrist leader, Baron
Schotemer-Alst. The deaths from in
fuenza include Prince Walbeck and DIR.
Schorenfeld. -....
A mysterious ailment broke out a
week ago in Berlin, chiefly in the sub
urban places. 1t takes the form of in
fiation and postulates in the mouth and
throat, accompanied by high fever and
thirst. Professor Vernhect, who has in
vestigated the outbreak, is of the opin-
ion that it is due to infection by par
taking If The 4 lk of diseas ID cows.
Some medical men believe that it is a
human form of the foot and mouth dis
ease peculiar to cattle.
In the reichstag today the minister of
foreign affairs, Voh Berbenstein, reply
ing to q question of Herr Most, Centrist,
said that the German charge daffaires
at Caracas, Venezuela, was in no way
molested and that there was no cause fol

constabulary are aware of the necessity
of their presence, but in very short
while a mob will be suppressed. If in
nocent foreigners are accidentally injured
an indemnity ought to be paid by the
federal government to their heirs or legal
representatives. If they are not innocent
then millions for defence but not dollar
for tribute 1t is folly to clamor for SUI
perior and additional protection to for
eigners. This government was organized
for the benefit of American citizens, and
it would be suicidal to change its organic
form to suit foreigners idea about the
protection needed by foreigners, and the
sooner foreigners know this government
is organized for the benefit of native and
naturalized citizens the better for them.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1895-03-21

Kate Field does not practice what she
advises others to do. She advises public
speakers to talk to an audience as If
they were addressing so many heads Of
cabbages. She generally talks very SEN
sibly, and only in this particular in
stance does she follow the advice she
gives. That is all humbug A man who
takes his audience to be heads of cab
bages will often count without his host.
Sometimes n speaker talks over the
beads of his audience, but when he does
address an audience he will be right
oftener If he regards them as having
ut least the average of intelligence.
Again, IL the advice is given SO that
the seaker may be relieved of embarrass-
ment it is erroneous. The embarrass-
ment that man feels in the presence of
an audience is an incentive to all his
faculties, like fear is the sentinel that
warns a man of danger and he braces
his nerves to meet it. If man has any
eloquence in him the best thing to stir
it to its lowest depth is the glances he
catches from the eyes of his audience.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1895-03-21

1t has never yet been fully explained
what the purser of an English vessel was
doing on the wharf in New Orleans at
the early hour he was wounded by the fire
of the mob. The probability is he was re-
turning to his ship after an all night
social enjoyment with friends in the city.
II that was the case he was wounded &C
cidentally, but if otherwise, and he was
there in sympathy with the negroes who
were attacked by the mob, he was where
he had no business to be, and meddling
in matter he had nothing to do with.
Taking either horn of the dilemma the
only complaint England can make against
US is that the New Orleans authorities did
not suppress the mob before he happened
to get there accidentally or otherwise.
Each state in this Union is capable of
suppressing mob violence, but some dam
age is generally done before the state
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1895-03-21

The charge that the poor statcsmanship
Of this administration compelled the Dor
rowing of money to run the government
and keep up the gold reserve is refuted
by an examination of few of the items
Eaddled upon the government by the
McKinley-Reed congress That congress
passed pension bill which added So
100000 to the public disbursements. They
repealed the sugar duties which took
nearly $60,000,000 from the receipts.
They passed the Sherman silverpurchasing
law which added 25,OO0,OO0 TO the out
go from the treasury, besides bringing
on financial panic from which we have
not yet recovered.
Mr.. Cleveland's second administration
found an empty treasury and difference
against the government on its balance
sheet Of $165,OOOO00 which the admin.
istraton had no means to cope with; add
to this the shrinking of custom receipts
on account Of the effect of the panic di.
minishing consumption and we can read
lily see that this administration was com
PEELED to borrow money. If Mr.. Harrison
had been reelected his administration
would have been compelled to borrow
money. On the other hand our secretary
of the treasury has exhibited great abil
ity in keeping up the credit of the govern
ment under the circumstances.
