The Woman in the Casa

New Orleans, Sept. 19.-It is said that
Louis Gallot, the man who was arrested
this afternoon for completely in defrl I'D
ing the Union National bank, lavished the
money he got out of that institution on a
woman named Mrs. Bouscaren, who was
formerly Miss Long of Louisville, XIV,
with whom he was infatuated, and who
in turn was infatuated with desire to
shine in society. Many stories are afoat,
but the consensus agrees that Gallot
spent money like water in vain effort
to enable the object of his adulation to
crafty her social aspirations. The wo-
man in the case Is now said to be living
in splendor In Washington D. G.

broken and he was internally injured.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent.

WASHINGTON, Feb. I, 1896.
The half billion dollars which
investors offered to put into u. S.
coin bonds. this week, when the
bids for that 100000, 900 issue Of
bonds were opened, spoke in thun
der tones, which were heard
around the world, of the sound
ness of the credit of the United
States. And that wasn't all that
this enormous amount of money
said, and when money talks it is
usually listened to. 1t gave the
lie direct, backed by the indisput-
able evidence of hard cash, to the
statements made in and out of
congress, by men in authority,
that it would be impossible for
this government to float a large
issue of bonds without erasing
"coin" and substituting ''gold"
on the face of them. It's worthy
of note, too, that the very money
kings who started the ''gold" bond
idea, and whose "advice" was re-
sponsible for all the statements
made against coin bonds, in con-
gress, aud elsewhere, were bid
ders for these same coin bonds.
Unfortunate as it is that this en-
ormous issue of bonds should
have to be made in time of pro-
posed peace, many people think
the object lesson thereby taught
is worth the price.
The senate has entered into a
game of politics, pure and simple,
and the populists hold the win
ming trumps. The republicans
are being given lesson against
biting off more than they could
chew, when they reorganized the
committees and became RESPONSE
bic for legislation. The first
trick in the game was taken when
Senator Jones, of Nevada, voted
with the democrats, of the finance
committee, and had a substitute
providing for the free coinage OF
silver, reported for the house
tariff bill. No sooner was this

latitude has been reached by sew
eral,. and 81 by Greely. Many
more concomitant and corroborat-
ing signs could be added to prove
the unequal conditions on the two
hemispheres, but what has been
will suffice.
The cause lies in the unequal
distribution of solar heat. 1t
takes the earth six days and 16
hours more to move from the
to the troplc of cancer
and back to the equator than it
does to move from the equator to
the tropic of capricorn and back
to the equator. The heavenly
bodies move with the greatest
velocity when in perihellon, or
that part of their orbit which is
nearest to the sun, and slowest
when in aphelion. The earth is
in perihelion when it is winter
with us and in aphelion when it
is summer. The slower motion
than when the earth is in aphe-
lion gives the northern half of the
earth more sunshine.
The effect is but little each
year, but the aggregate sufhces to
entirely change the climate on the
earth. We have the ice period
behind us and have entered the
period of moderate temperature.
Of course the severity of each
winter is conditioned by the fall
of rain or SNOW, but, on the whole.
winter is getting milder from yeal
to year.
In 500 years from now the gla.
ciers of the Alps will be gone
and the earth in our latitude will
have the climate of Southern Cali
fornia, and in 1000 years thi:
Will run over the north pole.
The water of the ocean is crys
talizing around the south poll
and the higher parts of the arcti
region will be dry land. Th
center of gravity will change, AM
probably catastrophe take place
or the earth change its orbit AM
the reverge of the course beg1n.--

WHY CLIMATE CHANGES.

The North Has More Sunshine, and This
is Leaving its Impress.
A local physician of Spring
Valley, Mimi, presents the fol-
lowing view of the steadily in
creasing mildness of the winters
in the north, in the Spring Valley
Sun:
Among geologists it is we'll
known that the earth has passed
through at least one ice and one
torrid period. Greenland has had
temp erature of central Africa, as
the finds at Disko and Nugsuak
clearly demon S ira tie, and in
Europe mighty glaciers stood
where now the lakes Constance,
Geneva, Wallis and Garda are.
The glaciers on the northern
hemisphere are gradually melt
ing down and on the southern
hemisphere they are steadily in
creasing. Capt. Ross, who has
penetrated the antarctic circle, at
74.11 degrees latitude, found an
uninterrupted wall of ice 70 meters
high and hundreds of miles long;
whereas in the north IS degrees

citizens.
The senate committee on for
eign relations, probably realizing
the humbuggery of that long
Cuban resolution reported the
other day, has reported a sub
stitute which is shorter and which
means something. This substi-
tute declares it to be the opinion
of congress that state of war
exists in Cuba and that the q. S..
should maintain street neutrali-
ty between the contending pow
ers, and accord to each all the
rights of belligerents. That is
as far as congress has a constitu-
tional right to go. 1t is for the
executive branch of the govern
nent to recognize the belliger-
ency of the reyolutionists; and
after congress adopts the resolu-
tion the president will probably
do so.

THE PICKEREL STATESMAN.

Another state campaign is on
in South Dakota, and already the
air is full of Pettigrew and anti
Pettigrew talk. It's a funny
thing about politics in that state.
Every campaign starts in the same
fashion---a lot of ambitious states
men go up and down the land
reaching out for Pettigrew scalps,
the anti-Pickerel press teens with
signs Of his near downfall, and
an outsider gets the impression
that his dynasty has at least
reached its climax. But, 10! and
behold, when the conventions are
held, Mr.. Pettigrew and his
friends, who have been quietly
saving wood and at the same
time disclaiming any interest
whatever in the outcome, general
ly manage to take everything in
sight that is worth taking, and
the other fellows fall enthusiastic
ally Tito line and clinch the vic
tory at the polls. Either the
Sioux Falls statesman isn't as
black politically as he is painted,
and the majority Of his constitu-
ents have unlimited faith in him,
despite his ambitious rivals, or he
is far and away the shrewdest
politician in the northwest to so
completely turn in his favor an
alleged overwhelming hostile
settlement in the course of few
months before every state con-
vention. Minneapolis Trib u n e.

done than the policy of the demo-
Gratis became plain. They pro-
pose to use the free silver sub
stitute to try to kill the tariff bill,
and to do so they have all become
for the time silver men. This re-
suited in uniting the republicans,
the silver republicans being more
anxious to pass the tariff bill,
which may possibly become law,
than to pass the free coinage sub
stitute, which cannot possibly be-
come a law. The populist sena-
tors by voting as unit can de-
eide this game either way. If they
divide the tariff bill will win and
pass.
The friends of Senator Allison
are making the 1oudest claims of
being benefited by Ex-pres1dent
Harrison's announcement that he
would not be candidate for the
presidential nomination Of his
party, but the friends of Speaker
Reed, Gov. Morton, Ex-gov. Nc
Kinley and the others who are
open or implied candidates seem
to think that they also have been
benefited. There is little doubt
that Mr.. Harrison would prefer
Senator Allison to any other of
the candidates, but there are
several weighty reasons why he
is not likely to make that prefer
ence known. While not a can
didate, Mr.. Harrison must recog-
nlze, in common with others, that
a contingency may arise III the
convention which might result in
his being nominated. For that
reason, and others he is not like
ly to express preference among
the candidates; he wants the
friendship Of them all.
