WHAT WORKINGMEN SAY.
They Do Not Desire Currency That
Will Cut Down Wages.

Interviews in the Atlanta Journal.
Mr.. H. NJ. Young, who has been en-
ployed as an engineer on the East Ten
nessee railroad for number of years,
has had a practical experience with sill
yer in a country where the white metal
is the basis of currency. Il was in Mex
leo for a number of MONTHS" he says,
land 1 ran an engine and made about
$3.50 per month at it. When 1 came back
my money wasn't worth half as much
as tho money of the United States. / be-
lieve it would cost us twice as much to
live if we had free coinage and our salar-
les would not be increased any. 1t seems
to me that would be a relaxation of sal
aries"
Mr.. D. j. O'Connell, a blacksmith, who
has a shop on Lloyd street, said he be-
lieved in the gold basis idea. Il think"
said he, that free silver would mean an
increase in the cost of living, while there
would be no increase in the earnings Of
the laboring man"
F. c. Coly, fireman: Il believe that
free silver money basis would ruin the
working man, for l don't believe that his
wages would double, although it is claim
ed that everything will double in value.
Put me in the gold column"
j. H. Oliver, carpenter: Il believe In
honest money. cannot see why people
want to advocate any imaginary dollar"
c. S. Shaffer, shoemaker: although 7
cannot say I agree with Mr. Cleveland
in all things, am certainly with him on
the line of sound money. 1 think that
the free coinage Of silver would be direct
ly against the best interests of the work
ingmen."
MIR. W. ]. Duncan, plumber, said that
he was in favor of sound money. He did
not believe that any government could
have sound financial system with sill
yer as the basis.
Mr.. G. D. Bishop. a telegraph operator,
says: Il read Harveys book, but II
failed to convince me that the free coin
age of silver would be best for this coun-
try. l am for a gold standard because l
don't think the government could give
any metal fictitious value"

AMERICAN SILVER DOLLARS.
Good for Their Face Value I'm Gold

From the Philadelphia Press.

your city, can go to London and get 500
in gold for it from ]. S. Morgan & Co., or
to Paris and get 500 in gold, by paying
the usual exchange C. U. f.
You can, on such deposit of silver, get in
Europe the equivalent of 500 in gold, less
exchange-that is, about f2O in London or
800 franc in Paris. This is the saving vir-
tue of our present currency. Every dollar
whether gold, silver or paper, is equal to
every other dollar and all equal to the
best. Sound money men want to preserve
our currency in just this condition. They
invite and will welcome as large and lib
eral use of silver as Is consistent with
maintaining the present parity, exchange
ability and excellence of our entire cur
rency.
Should our silver friends gain their
point and commit this country to the lu-
macy of free silver coinage at the ratio
of rs to our currency would Immediately
drop to a silver basis, and 100 silver dollars
being no longer eXchangeable for 100 gold
dollars. would be worth the bullion that is
in them and no more. They would pur-
chase at Drexel & Co.'S or elsewhere
London draft for $50 francs instead of
twice that amount, as at the present
time.
This is not theory. 1t is exemplified ex-
actly in Mexico at the present time where
foreign remittances shrink one-half in. be-
ing translated from silver to gold and
where 100 American silver dollars will ex-
change for 200 Mexican dollars because
Mexico has free silver coinage while the
United States has yet escaped that blow
to her credit and debasement of her cur
rency.

Queen Victoria considers it "high-
ly undesirable for young ladies to
have latch-keys," and expressed her
self rather decidedly to that effect
upon a late visit to Buckingham
palace of the daughters of the prince

latch-keys in order that they might
go back and forth between their apart
ments and the grounds at their pleas
ure, without going through the
formality of ordering the doors
opened by attendants, but her maj
esty promptly vetoed the suggestion.

TWO SMART PUG DOGS.

Grover Performs Many Tricks and the
Other Acts as Messcngcr.
II is the general impression that pug
dogs are too duh to he taught to per-
form tricks, and professional trainers
have in most cases turned their atten-
ton to other breeds. There is no doubt
that Il pug dog, taken at the right agc
and with proper care and patience. can
be taught many amusing and difficult
tricks. 1t is proved by the following:
Grover is pug owned by Charles y.
Tibblcs, of Englcwood, who has devoted
great deal of time to the dogs educa-
ton. Grover is n full bloodcd pug. All
his ancestors were full bloodcd pugs,
with their tails curcd to the left. Ills
ability to learn was discovered whcnhe
was diminutivc fat ball Of yellow and
black hair and legs at the age of four
weeks. They commenced by sitting
| him braced up in the corner and feed
| ing him. After several trials at this
the family were eating dinner, when,
hearing the dog whine, they found him
sitting up in the corner by himself
and crying for something to eat. From
that time on his education has been
rapid, until now he performs at least a
dozen amusing and entertaining tricks.
lie knows each member of the family
by name, and viii go to either one of
them when told to do so. He will stand
on his hind legs with fore feet against
the wall, nose between his paws, and
play hide and seek, finding whoever is
hiding when they give the word.
He will walk across the room erect
on his hind legs, play dead, say his
prayers, sit erect on n chair, fetch q
ball or slipper. and, in fact, seems to
understand just what is said to him.
There is another interesting pug
owned by lady in Groveland park.

TREE.clIMeIno RABBITS.
Parrots That Eat sheep and Sheep Tha
Thrive ON Snails.

| Parrots That Eat sheep and Sheep That
Thrive ON Snails.
It seems almost stretch of the inn
agination to think OF rabbits climbing
trees. Yet in Australia many rabbits
have somehow acquired the tree-climb-
ing habit, having been forced, ON ac-
count of the prosecutions of dogs and
other animals, to drop burrowing and
initiate squirrels. An Australian sent
on to England recently the two front
feet of rabbit that had been killed on
an acacia, three yards from the ground,
and he wrote in his letter that this
was not at all n remarkable thing, and
he had often found them, or ut least
the traces of their claws, on the bark
of trees four, five and six yards high.
For n parrot to eat sheep is another
remarkable thing, and yet the kea OF
New Zealand has become sheep eater,
having changed to this article of food
from IL purely vegetable diet. The kea
has proved serious source of annoy
ance to the New Zealand herdsmen,
aud methods have been taken for the
destruction of the species. These gay
colored little birds will eat almost any
kind of meat, but it is sheep that they
prefer.
They have been known to kill as
many as two hundred in single night,
and have done serious harm to the
focks. The tradition of the island in
that at one time these parrots were UNI
able to obtain their usual supply of
vegetable food and that in desperation
they invaded the drying rooms" and
ate whatever came to hand, finding
sheep most agreeable. In Iceland al
most all of the horses are fish caters, for
the reason that grain is scarce there
and fish is plentiful In England
sheep are known who delight in snails.
The observation of this fact is not new;
it dates back one hundred and fifty
years.
1t is well known that large number
of inscctivorous birds become grain
eaters whenever they find that they
cannot procure their ordinary diet OF
insects.-N. Y. World.

GROVER.

One day recently q dressmnlser was
sewing Mt the house. 1t was about
dinner time and she was preparing to
lay down her work, when in rushed
the pug, and, placing itself squarcly
in front Of her, gave two short, sharp
barks, and then turned abruptly away
and trottcd downstairs. This rather
startled the lady for a minute, but she
went on quietly with her sewing. In
few minutes the pug rushed in again.
and this time he gave three short,
angry barks, and out he bounced and
downstairs again. The actions of the
dog made the scamstrcss nervous, and
laying aside her work she went down
to the dining-room and found dinner
waiting. She mentioned the peculiar
actions of the dog to its mistress, and
laughing she said: ''Oh, just sent him
up to call you to dinner" And it was "a

had something to say which we either
wanted or needed to hear, or both, il
never occurred to the congregation that
there was great, round-faced clock on
the front of the gallery softly ticking
its subdued "amens" all through the
service. Our preacher has been down
east a great many years teaching
preachers how to preach, so we may get
back to the lfe-size sermons and whole
hymns again.
Well, that choir was so praised and
lauded, and deservedly so, that at last
it exalted its horn like the horn of
an unicorn" and decided to take
entire charge of the musical portion
of the service. The leader, young
man of sublime confidence, SPLEEN
did voice, long, curling hair tucked un-
der at the ends, as was the fash
ion with young men at that day, like
the jack of spades, if you know what
that is, and wealth of bears grease,
favored with bergamot, came to the
preacher and said: "Mr. Seekpeace,
must have the hymns for Sunday serv-
ice on Friday morning hereafter. Ihave
changed rehearsal from Saturday to
Friday evening"
"But can't let you have them Friday
morning." the preacher said, because
do not always know at that time what
1 will preach about on the Sunday fol-
lowing. You may have them Satur-
day morning, as usual"
But the leader would not have it that
way, and he said so. The preacher
was a man not given to controversy in
small matters. lie said what he had to
say on the subject in a few words Sc
lected from the English language,
principally monosyllables, and went
his way, as also did the leader, their
ways beginning at the same point and
running respectively east by east and
due west. The preacher sent the
leader the numbers of the hymns on
the morning of the Saturday following.
