uiVlueu between x0lu anu silver, IL ID lm-
possible to strike silver out of existence as
money without results which would prove
distressing to millions, and utterly disas-
trous to tens Of thousands. Alexander Ham,
iltOn, In his able and invaluable report in
1901 on the establishment of a mint. de-
clared that "to annul the use of either gold
or silver as money Is to abridge the Quanti-
ty of circulating medium, and is liable to
oil the objections which arise from COM
parlson Of the benefits Of a fnll circulation
with the evils of scanty circulation"
take no risk in saying that the benefits of
q full circulation, and the evils of a scanty
circulation, are both immeasurably greater
to-day than they were when Mr.. Hamilton
uttered these weighty words. always pro.
vided that the circulation Is one Of actual
money. and not Of deprecated promises
to pay
In the report from which l have already
quoted Mr.. Hamilton argues at length In
favor Of the double standard, and II the
subsequent experience Of nlne.y years has
brought out no clearer statement Of the
case. nor developed n more complete COM
prehension Of this subtle and dimcult sub

"lt seems most advisable not to attach tho
unit exclusively to either Of the metals. be-
cause this cannot be done effectually with
out destroying the Office and character Of
one Of them as money and reducing 1t to
the situation Of mere merchandise" Mr..
Hamilton wisely concludes that this re-

David Dettrey, who sports about town in
a fashionable light suit of clothes, wears kid
gloves and has otherwise won distinction as a
dude, was arrested AZ 5 o'clock this morning
by Constable Bolin, of town, and Constable
Leitenberger, of Mahanoy City, at his board
ing house on North West street, on a charge
of COW stealing. 1t is not the first time he
has been arrested on a charge Of that
character. In the present case it is alleged
the COW was stolen from "a Mahanoy City
party and Dettrey drove the animal to
Sheppton, Pleasant Hill, Tamaqua, and
thence to Summit Hill, where the COW was
sold. The authorities claim to have Swallowed
Dettrey closely and they can show that he
was absent from this town on the days that
the COW was driven from Mahanoy City to
the place where it was sold. Dettrey was
taken to Mahanoy City for a hearing and
committed for trial.

A young man by the name of Morris Souch,
of Shamokin, was noticed by Coal and Iron
Policeman James Lippiatt riding on a P. q K.
coal train. He motioned to him to get of
but this the fellow refused to do, as the
train was going too fast. and he feared arrest.
Thinking to scare him the officer pulled out
his revolver and fired, and was surprised to
hear the man cry out, and roll over on the
top of the car, He at once signalled the
engineer to slow up, when he boarded the
train and found that the man was badly
wounded. The bullet struck a piece of iron
on the car, and g%lancing struck Souch
below the shoulder, coming out of his back.
He was removed to the Miners hospital,
accompanied by the officer, who feels badly
over the result of his luckless shot.

during the first five years of life has been a
reproach to medical men.
But all this is now changed. Practical,
scientific, philanthropic-minded men Of the
highest standing have devoted themselves ex-
clusiyely to these great problems Of infant
feeding. Many valuable results have come,
but the greatest and the most practical is the
preparation of lactated food, the most nourish-
ing, strengthening, readily digested and
palatable food that can be given the baby.
Just now when the death reports show a
fearful prevalence of diarrhea and cholera
infantum-the effect of improper diet in hot
weather-lactated food is doingits best work.
1t is saving the lives of little ones in nearly
every city and town in the United States.

A Notable Trademark Decision.

MADISON. Wis, Nov. 28.-Speclal.-Judge
Romauzo Bum, U. s. Circuit Judge for the
Western District of Wisconsin has decided
for defendants in the case Of the Sterling
Remedy Co., proprietors Of "No.to.bac,"
against the Eureka Chemical & Mfg Co.,
proprietors Of "Baco. Curo." Suit was bro't
by the former April 3rd last. asking $4,000
damages and al injunction restraining de-
fendant from using the name "Baco Curo,"
from advertising the same and from using
boxes, racks, ETC., which, 1t was claimed. were
infringemcnts upon those used by "No.to
bac" Judge Bum decides for defendants
on the ground that no marked similarity
exists, that no Infringement has been made
and that" "Baco Curo"by its injunction" Don't
Stop Tobacco" shows itself to he entirely
distinct from motto. bac," in that the latter
requires the patient to cease using tobacco
when commencing the remedy. BY the
terms Of the order the complainants bill is
dismissed and costs are taxed in favor of
defendant. The case has excited especial
interest inasmuch IS it is the first of like
character ever heard in the Wisconsin Fed
eral courts and the decision, it is believed,
will govern in all similar cases, Judge Bum
being noted as an able jurist both in Wis.,

A few words about this horse, the

his forefathers looked on when Mon
tezuma fell, they certainly hailed
from Spain. And whether it was
missionaries or thieves who carried
them northward from Mexico until
the Sioux heard of the new animal,
certain 1t also is that this pony ran
wild for century or two, either
alone or with various red skinned
owners, and as he gathered the sun
dry experiences of war and peace, of
being stolen and of being abandoned
in the snow at inconvenient distances
from home, of being ridden by two
women and a baby at once and of
being eaten by bear, his wide range
of contretemps brought him a wit
sharper than the street arabs and
an attitude toward life more blase
than tho united capitals of Europe.

A number of delighted passengers
on the Kansas Pacific railway passed
by a Mexican vaquero who had been
sent out from Kansas City to rope
buffalo as an advertisement for the
stockyards. The train stopped to
take a look at the solitary horseman
fast to buffalo in the midst of the
plains. Jose who had his bull safely
roped, shouted to ask If they had
any water on the train. "We'll bring
some," said they. "Oh, 1oome get,

accomplished pony in sole charge Of
the buffalo. Whenever the huge
beast struggled for freedom the clev-

back in IL tug of war, by jumps and

his employer sent out a car for the
