The Penstonar,s Dollar.

"You say you want to hear little
about the old soldiers. Well. my friends,
the crisis which is approaching now, the
question before the country now, ap-
peals to the old soldier as much as it
did IN 1861. am not afraid that any
man who rtsked his life in his nations
behalf is going to be influenced by the
arguments that are addressed to the SOL
diers now by the tlnanciers," etc.-Mr.
Bryan at Milwaukee, September 5.
Not one word in answer to the qlles-
ton whether the purchasing power Of
the monthly pension payments to e7O,-
coo pensioners would be reduced by the
free coinage of sixteen to one silver dol
lars. Not word as to the effect upon
pension payments hereafter of the Tex
termination" of the "200-cent dollar"
because it is worth too much and buys
too much.
We do not assume that the veteran SOL
diers are thinking of nothing but pen
sions, but they should compel Mr..
Bryan to say frankly what would be
the effect of free coinage upon the pen
sioner's dollar.
Make him answer the question one
way or the other.-Exchanpe.t

Marvellous Results.

From a letter written by Rev. J.
Gunderman, of Dimondale, Mich, we
are permitted to make this extract: II
have no hesitation in recommending
DIR. Kings New Discovery, as the re-
suits were almost marvellous in the case
of my wife. While l was pastor of the
Baptist Church at Rives junction she
was brought down with Pneumonia
succeeding La Grippe. Terrible parox-
ysIns of coughing would last for hours
with little interruption and it seemed
as if she could not survive them. A
friend recommended DIR. Kings New
Discovery; it was quick in its work
and highly satisfactory in results. -

a Queer Hospital.

II went to the animals fair,

II went to the animals fair,
The birds and beasts were there
at any rate it was the animals hospital,
and there were enough birds and beasts
for fair. The hospital is in charge
of the New York College of Veterinary
Surgeons, and that, if you please, is
part of the University of New York;
SO if you wanted to send your dicky-
bird there for the pip, he would be in a
manner under the sheltering wing OF
all the D. DIS and LIDS that shine as
the regents of that noble institution.
A great deal of the hospitals most
interesting practice is among the ami
mails kept in geological gardens or in
travelling shows. An old circus lion
was brought here not long ago to have
his liberated tooth pulled. Now if the
toothache makes you feel as 'cross as a
bear" how cross does the toothache
make live lion feel?
To tell the truth, no one at the hos
pital wanted to know how cross that
lion did feel-they thought it was a
case in which it would be folly to be
wise. The first thing to be done was
to drop nooses of rope on the floor of
his cage, and then draw them up when
he put his foot in one-he snared-and
so, step by step, get him bound and
helpless. If you will think how par
ticularly hard it is to tie up cat, you
may guess that it is no joke to make a
lion fast; he is just like a stupendous
cat in his agility and slipperiness The
only way to render him helpless is to
get his hind quarters tied up outside
his cage and his head bound fast with
in it; the next thing, for dental work,
is to put gag in his mouth; that is
the easier because there is no trouble
at all about getting him to open his
mouth-he does it every time anyone
goes near him.
When medicine cannot be given dis
guised in drink or food, it is usually
squeezed down the patients throa,
with syringe. The horses are very
good about that operation, but the
dogs are often troublesome at first
but both dogs and horses soon learn
that they are with friends, and then
they are wonderfully good and CRATE
full even when the doctors haye to hurt
them.

THE determination of Mr.. Hoppman
to involve himself and the City Council
in suit that can be productive OF moth
ing but expense and trouble to both is
to be very much regretted. The attack
upon the Third street bond issue, after
it has been voted by the people, is not
effective as against the Council, but
works to the injury and Inconvenience
of every citizen by causing Increased
expenditures with possible torn-up
condition of Third street for several
months. 1t will certainly make Mr..
Hoppman very unpopular.
There can be no question that the
proceedings are instituted as a result
of Mr.. Hoppman's attempt to secure
change of grade in front OF his property
above Wooster street, and as it can
benefit that gentleman in no particular
should the injunction be granted, it is,
of course, due to his agitated frame OF
mind. If Mr.. Hoppman's property has
been damaged by any action of the
Council he has proper recourse by a
suit tor damages, and we feel sure that
he would not find the gentlemen who
compose the City Council hesitating to
do him full justice. 1t is sincerely to
be hoped that he will upon careful con-
sideration, appreciate the folly OF de-
LAYING the work on Third street and
let the bond matter rest where it is.
The fact is indisputabl BILE that under
present financial conditions municipal
bonds cannot be sold at anything like
their true value unless they contain
the gold clause, The matter is purely
one of business and not of sentiment
one in which Mr.. Hoppman himself,
were he successful, would be one of the
chief sufferers.

two certified checks. Siler rendered

MISSION A FAILURE.

PROMISE
ON THE SCHOOL QUESTION,
ALTHOUGH THERE Is A MORE
HOPEFUL FEELING AMONG
CONSERVATIVES.
GREENwAY,s CHANGE OF FRONT
the Agitation Against the Cana
dian Pacific Railway.

Special to the Globe.
WINNIPEG, Man., Feb. 21-Sir Dom
aid Smith left for the East today on
the Great Northern express, going via
st. Paul. The courteous knight was
very reticent in speaking of his mis-
sion here, but it is learned from prov
incial government sources that no COM
promise of the school question was
effected. In local Conservative circles
there seems a more hopeful feeling.
since Sir Donald's visit, and one of the
party managers said today that as
result of his efforts the party would
be solidly united when the elections
come on, as they seldom have been
on similar occasions in the past It
is also learned incidentally that the
harmony heretofore existing between
the provincial government and the
Canadian Pacific railroad authorities
has ceased. Evidences os this are
found in frequent references by Green-
way in the legislature and public gath
erings to eXorbitant freight rates
charged by the company; also in the
proposal of the government to bonus
an independent railway to Dauphtn
country, and expressed a readiness to
aid competing line to Duluth. AS
Greenway has four years lease of pow
er he feels Independent for the time
being, and if the Canadian Pacific
railroad takes a hand in the coming
federal elections, as it did five years
ago, there is likely to be a revival
of the agitation against railway rob-
berry such as brought Greenway into
power eight years ago. This, of course,
would be bad for the country, and
worse for the Canadian Pacific rail-
road, but it would be a popular cam
paign cry for the next provisional gen.
eral election, when the school ques-
tion will be dead issue. That's what
Greenway is figuring on.

Jim Hall in New Orleans. For the first
part of the round Maher had the bet
ter of it. He led often and forced the
fighting. In his eagerness to get at
Fitzsimmons he committed a palpable
foul during a clinch, and was warned
by Referee Siler that it's repetition
would cost him the fight. Maher
fought well, but he was no match for
his red-headed opponent, who proved
himself one of the craftiest men who
ever stepped into the ring. Fitzsin-
mons is now, by Corbett's action in
presenting the championship to Maher,
the champion of the world, and, after
the fight was over, he declared through
Julian his willingness to defend the
championship against any and all COM
ers. The train arrived at $3.50, central
time and, over rocky road winding
about the precipitous cliffs along the
Rio Grande, the crowd wended it's way
to the sandy beach of the river. For
ty-two Mexicans had carried the ring
material down to the river bank last
night, after working hard all day on
a roadway down the bluff. narrow
wooden foot bridge had been put up
across the
SWIFTLY FLOWING STREAM.
The crowds tumbled over the stony
path and waded ankle deep In the
sand, guided by little Jimmy White,
boy who came from Toronto to be at
the fight. The battle ground was
sandy fiat upon a big bend in the Rio
Grande river on the Mexican side, just
two miles from the village Of Langtry.
In the center Of a canvas wall about
200 feet in diameter, the ring was
pitched. The board floor was covered
with canvas, over. which rosin was
sprinkled. At one side was the frame
compartment for the taking by the
kinetoscope of the pictures of the fight
as it proceeded. On the opposite side
of the ring were two little tents for
the principals Fitzsimmons was the
first to leave the train. There were
following him Martin Julian, Jack
Everhardt, William Mccoy and Jack
Stelzner, who were in his corner. Fitz-
simmons took the first tent when he
entered the canvas enclosure. Maher
took the other. Maher arrived five
minutes after Fitzsimmons. He was
followed from the train by crowd, as
well as his seconds bearing his effects,
