Shortage of &8O. 900 Discovered Mt the Car
son (Ncv.) Mint.

Shortage of $3.50, 600 Discovered mt tho Car
son (Ncv.) Mint.
CARSON, New, March l9.-Andrew
Mason, inspector Of the mint and super
intendent of the New York assay de-
partnent, has been in Carson for the
past week inspecting affairs at tho
United States mint. An article in The
Tribune to the effect has given rise to
rumors that something was wrong at
the mint, as heretofore the presence OF
government Inspectors had been known
to the public on tho day of arrival. The
fact of 80 much secrecy caused ugly ru-
mors, and it was later learned from
Hirsh Harris, melter and refiner, that
u shortage had been discovered month
ago. 1t was learned that something
over $4,000 had mystcriously disap-
peared and that five c!eanups, which
were made in quick succession as it was
thought some clerical error had been
made, failed to reveal the cause Of the
shortage. Refined gold and silver to
that amount has disappeared and In
spectOr Mason expects to clear up the
mystery in day or two. Mr.. Harris
asserted the reason so much secrecy was
observed was that it was not deemed
advisable to give the matter publicity,
as that might prevent the recovery Of
the loss. No direct charges have been
made as yet.

What s purported to be later will
than the one previously offered for pro-
bate was introduced in the case. The
will first produced, it will be remem-

Gresham and Assistants Have Nothing to
Say of the Alliance Affair.
WASHINGTON, March l9.-An impene-
trable mystery surrounds the negotia-
lions between the state department and
the Spanish government On the Alliance
affair. It seems to be the impression OF
the officials of the state department,
from the secretary down, that in the
present state Of excited public feeling in
the country, better progress can be
made toward peaceable settlement OF
the question by keeping the various
notes secret than by giving publicity to
them before conclusion has been
reached. Therefore, the only response
to definite inquiries that can be obtained
is a positive refusal 10 discuss the SUBJ
ject in any aspect, and whether or not
any action has yet been taken by the
Spanish government in the direction OF
issuing instructions to it's naval officers
to refrain from further interference
with American Shipping will probably
be learned first from Havana, from
which point the orders will be distrib-
uted,

NOT VESTED RIGHT.

Important Supreme Court Decision Re-
garding Pensions to Vets.
WASHINGTON, March 19.-An inter-
esting opinion upon the status Of pen
slons has been delivered by Justice
Brewer. "Congress beng ut liberty to
give or withhold pensions" said the
justice, "may prescribe who shall re-
ceive, and determine all the circum-
stances and cond. lions under which any
application therefor shall be prosecuted.
No man has legal right to a pension,
and no man has legal right to inter-
fere in the matter of obtaining pensions
for himself or others. The whole con-
troll of the matter is within the domain
of congressional power"
This declaration was incidental to the
courts opinion upon the appeal of
Henry N. Frisble, who was convicted
under an Indictment charging that he
demanded greater sum than $40 for
prosecuting a pension claim.

New YORK, March l9.-As soon as
Thomas A. Edison can find the time
he means to learn something about
argon the newly discovered gaseous
constituent Of the atmospere. Mr.. Edi-
son says that he not only believes i'll
the discovery Of Lord Bayleigh and his
co-workers, but thinks it probable that
further experiments will disclose other
new elements in the air.
''To tell the TRUTH" said the electric
wizard, 1.-THE discovery of argon is fresh
evidence of how little we know even Of
the commonest matters. The air has
been Analysed over and over again for
half a century without suspecting that
it held any new elements.
Mr.. Edison explained that his inves-
LEGATIONS concerning his incanlescent
lamp showed him phenomena which
could only be explained on the hypothe-
sis of a new element, but he was unable
to say whether argon was responsible
for those phenomena.

1ssoimportanttha that you should be sure
to get TIE BEST. Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla has proven its unequalled merit by
its thousands of remarkable cures, and
the fact that it has a larger sale than
any other sarsaparilla or blood puri-
fer shows the great confidence the
people have in it. In fact it is the
Spring Medicine. 1t cures all blood
diseases, builds up tho nerves and
gives such strength to the whole system
that, as one lady puts it, " 1t seemed to
make me anew"
If you decide to take Hoods Sarsa-
parills for your Spring Medicine do
not buy any substitute. Be sure to get
