II Amured the PrerIdent.

j. S. Van Antwerp in Detroit Tribune.
Private Secretary Thurber denies the re-
port that he has bought a pair of bloom
ers for his own use. He think II real
mean" for the press to print such rum
ors. He carried one of the reports to
the President the other day, and asked
him what he thought OF it. He himself
was bursting with anger and only waiting
for the President to manifest like
condition to give vent TO his feeling.
To his surprise, however, the Presi-
dent had scarcely begun to read when
he began TO smile. The smile broadened
till his teeth were shown and his mouth
opened till his larynx was visible, and
from his mighty chest there came a ha,
ha, ha, which penetrated the walls to the
ears of the people in the next room. When
he had finished reading. he threw the
paper down and said: That's first rate,
Thurber" But then looking up and seeing
Tkurbers troubled countenance, added:
But you mustn't mind It. They're only
having a little fun with you"
And then turning his back upon his
faithful and adoring private secretary, his
sides began to shake, and after IRlurber
had left the room a series Of ha, ha, ha s

QUEER MUNICIPAL MIDDLE.
'isht Between saloon CIosers and

politics in this city is now causing unt-
EeIssl speculation as TO its Ultimate out
come Mayor p. p. Mart was elected
iast April on a reform platform against
eA-AIayor W r. Burnet. who was the rem
resentative Of the saloon element. At
the same time the republicans secured
control Of the city council. which con-
sists OF four democrats and eight repub-
tioalis- Mayor Mart appointed men whom
ne supposed would carry out his wishes
Dy the provisions of the law he is com
peHed 10 appoint two members of his

r. On the police board he appointed W. S.
-ioiidS, dem, A. r. Ludlow. pro-. J. A
Myers, rep, and J. J. Hopper, rep. To the
surprise Of everybody Ludlow voted with
lhomas and thus far no change i'm the
police force has occurred. Many raids
were made on saloons anu il is reported
on good authority that the state liquor
league was induced to take hand in the
fight.
For fifteen years this city has been gov
erned by an ordinance closing saloons at
~ o CLOCK, and up to a few years ago II
gave entire satisfaction. Four years ago
the administration was turned over TO the
democrats. and no pretense of obeying the
~ CLOCK ordinance was made. Two years
ago, by promises to the saloon men and
counter promises to the republicans, so the
temperance people say, James Johnson
was elected mayor and the saloons We're
run open. Then the people elected Mr..
Mart, who at once began raiding saloons
and gambling places. The saloon men
sought an amendment to the ordinance.
SO as 10 close saloons at 80 o'clock A
week ago the majority Of the council, TO
which the matter had been referred, re-
ported in favor of II 80
Public opinion has been aroused until
nothing else is talked of and almost the
entire ministry Of the city preached on the
subject to-day. Petitions were circulated
at every church, protesting against the
amendment. A.petition is being circulated
to hold public meeting of citizens Mon
day evening and the ministerial associa-

PARIS ISLAND LIGHTHOUSE.
Unique in Form, But Economical in
Structure.

Structure.
From the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
The popular idea Of a lighthouse is of q
tall. massively constructed tower OF rock.
around which, and, perhaps, half to the
top. the waves curl and break in foam
with deafenlng crash. This is the ira
ditional lighthouse. the one that poets
have sung Of, that story-tellers have made
famous in stirring tales of adventure and
herolsm, and certainly the only one that
will ever achieve any general popularity.
But it is not the only kind in use. For
some locations another form may be dis
tinctly preferable This is shown by the
lighthouse which has been erected by the
United States government at Paris Island,
Port Royal Sound, s c. 1t is novel in
form. and, though erected as an expert
ment, it has done it's duty well. 1t is the
most economical structure in the history
Of lighthouse construction. When first
erected it was regarded with many mis-
givings by experts.
This is the rear one OF the range lights
maintained on Paris Island. 1t having
been found that the appropriation made
by congress was not sufficient to put up
the kind of structure usual in such places,
it was determined to build a cheaper form.
The light is simply locomotive headlight
in the form of a powerful parabolic reflect,
or. 1t is claimed, however, that 1t is pos
sible to use a lentieular apparatus.
The tower is composed Of columns, sock>
cts, struts and tension rods, framed in
the form of a triangular pyramid 1t rests
on six circular iron dislSss aneheFea 70 a
concrete foundation. Tbcstan spptiesss OF
the side facing the eha0nel Tor which
the tower is the guilds, ara orovidsd with
horizontal Stats to increase 4ae Visibility
of the beacon by day.
The light, which is run up and down in
rails in the plane of the structure, is
housed by day At night It is hoisted in
it's place at the apex of the triangle by
machinery worked in the oilhouse at the
base of the structure. The large founda>
ton plates are about forty feet apart.
The focal plane of the light is 120 feet
above the sea level, but the top Of the
structure is 125 feet from the ground.
The cost of the iron work set up is 80, 400.
and that of the structure complete and
lighted about $4,000.
1t may take away a good deal Of the
romance of the thing to contemplate a
lighthouse keeper, who, instead of Gus,
tomarily sitting far UP in his eyrie, shading
his eyes with his hand as he looks dream
lily out upon the distant horizon for a
passing sail, spends his days cultivating
potatoes on a fiat sandbank, and in the
early evening saunters earelessly around
to the .base of the skeleton, pours a few
gallons of oil into his headlight, and then
runs it up to the top as one would flag.
But the mariner in the distance cannot
detect the difference, and Uncle Sam is
some $4,000 the richer as the result of this
experiment Possibly the lighthouse Of
history, poetry and song may have to so.

CHEAP MONEY.
A Reminder of the Time when the
south Was Flooded With 1t.

Reminder of the Time when the
south was Flooded With 1t.
Knoxville, Tenn, Letter in Philadelphia
Press.
If the people in the south who are adj
vocating this silver heresy could have
state bank currency they would quickly
drop the silver question. They are only
advocating that now because they think
that will secure them more money and
lower interest. That desire was gratified
under the old state banking system, but
the people here seem to have forgotten 1t.
When the state banks were the most num-
erous money was so cheap in the south
that it could be used for gun wadding.
Prices went almost out of sight. Cotton
sold for Sc cents a pound and other pro-
ducts in proportion. The farmers took the
state bank currency readily and thought
themselves rich. Then tne chash came.
Prices went down like stone in water.
The paper money was worth only 25 cents
on the dollar. In some of the states, no.
tably Alabama, commissioners were au-
thorized to buy up this paper money at
% cents on the dollar. The southern
states had another sucn experience
during the war when it took 500 in cur
federate bills 70 buy a dinner with Dur
they traded a cord of wood for cord Of
paper money!
And yet, after all this experience, they
are now crying again for cheap money.
In England. under the gold standard,
money is loaned readily for long periods
at ~ per cent. But the rates here in the
south are from. to y per cent, and they
would probably be double on a silver
basis. Georgia negotiated bonds few
days ago at 80 per cent. interest, which
is 4 per cent. less than the government
Of the United States, under the demo-
cratic administration, sold its bonds to
the Rothschilds' syndicate. But never be-
fore was Georgia able 10 negotiate bonds
at so low a rate Of interest. And yet a
large section Of the people of Georgia
are crying for the free and unlimited
coinage of silver in order to get lower
rate Of interest.
People down here are beginning to IN
derstand this question more and more, and
when they come to know what they are
doing they are very apt to join with the
north in opposing this monumental folly
of the free coinage of silver.
1t is estimated that O00,OO0.OO0 cigars
are annually consumed in this country--e1
