QUEER USE OF A CIGAR.

| The Mere Lighting Of the Weed Pre-
vented Panic and Gr0At Loss.
A good story is told or a sea captain
who died not long ago and who was
formerly in command of a ship in
which passengers were carried from
London to Lisbon. On one occasion,
says Tit-Bits, the ship caught fire and
the passengers and crew were compelled
to take hurriedly to the boats. The
captain remained perfectly cool
throughout all the confusion and
fright of the debarkation, and at last
everyone except himself was got safely
into the boats
BY the time he was ready to follow
the passengers were almost wild with
fear and excitement. Instead of hurry
ing down the ladder the captain called
out to the sailors to hold on minute,
and, taking a cigar from his pocket,
coolly lighted it with a bit of burning
rope which had fallen from the rig
ging at his feet. Then he descended
with elaboration and gave the order to
push Off
How could you stop to light cigar
at such moment?' he was asked after
ward, when some of the passengers
were talking over their escape
Because he answered, IT saw that
If did not do something to divert the
minds of those in the boat there was
likely to be panic, and overcrowded
as it was, there was danger of the boat
being upset. The act took but a mo-
ment, but it attracted the attention of
everybody. I was not nearly so I'M
concerned as I seemed to be, but was
in reality in a fever of excitement. MY
little plan succeeded You all forgot
yourselves because you were thinking
of my curious behavior, and we got
off safely"

the circuit continue? 1t is because the
deficiency continues. The government
resorts to the financial policy of Micaw-
Der. 1t gives its bonds and thinks the
debt paid But the circuit continues.
The money received for current revenue
is paid to cover deficiencies aud is re-
turned for gold and then more bonds. The
secretary hopes that in two or three years
there will be deficiency. What is the
ground for this hope? Is it that a new
admin istration will provide more revenue
and then the circuit will be broken:
Why not apply the remedy now?"
ain conclusion Senator Sherman said:
A careful study of the systems of bank
ing, currency and coinage adopted by
the principal nations of Europe convinces
me that our system when cured of
few defects, developed by time,
founded upon the bi-metallic
coinage of gold and silver main
with free national banks esta blished in
every city and town of importance in the
United States, issuing their notes secured
beyond doubt by United States bonds
or some equivalent security redeemable
on demand in United States notes and
the issue of an amount of United States
treasury notes, equal to the amount now
outstanding with provision for
ratable increase with the increase
of population always redeemable
in coin supported by an ample
reserve of coin in the treasury not 10 be
invaded by deficiencies of revenue and
separated by the sub treasury system
from all connection with the receipts
and expenditures of the government
such q system would make our money
current in commercial circles in every
land and CLINE, better than the best that
now exists in Europe, better than that
of Great Britain, which now holds the
purse strings of the world"

Touching for Kings EVIL.

1.-THE duke of Monmouth was passing
through Hinton park, the seat of Earl
Poulett, when one Elizabeth Parcot
made rush at the 1uke and touched
his hand. She suffara1 from the kings
evil, had received Nc ssenef1t from ply
sicians, nor even from a seventh son.
to reach whom she had Travelled ten
miles. After touching the duke all the
wounds were healed in two daysi A
handful in folio was circulated, set
ting forth the marvellous cure, and a
document signed by Henry Clarke, min
lister of Crewkerne, two captains, a cler-
gyman and four others lay for some
time at the Amsterdam coffee house,
Bartholomew lane, London. The few
that doubted Monmouth's legitimacy
doubted no more.
1t is a curious episode, as the power
was always supposed to lie with an
anointed sovereign since the days of
the confeSSor. Charles II in twenty

evils which we now encounter by adverse

tenn
Mr.. Sherman continuing declared that
the deficiency of revenue was the prl-
mary cause of the demand for United
States notes and that the only remedies
are either radical reduction of expend-
lures or an increase of taxation, and per-
haps both.
During the first term of Mr.. Cleve-
land" he continued, "when he was pow
erless to affect our currency and tariff
policy, the senate being Republican, the
gold Increased from $240, 900 on the
first of April, 1885, to $500, 100000 on the
first of April, 1889. This gold came into
the treasury without cost in exchange for
United States notes or gold certificates.
''What other cause can be stated than
that unwise Legislation reduced our rev
enues below our expenditures, impaired
confidence in our ability to maintain our
currency at par, and compelled the gov
eminent to sell bonds provided for the
REDEEM ption of U. S. notes, in order to
meet deficiencies?
Nv nat other remedy is there for our
financial difficulties except to borrow
money on the best terms possible to pay
current deficiencies and to provide ad-
ditional revenue for future wants? To
this extent and for these purposes l am
willing to support this administration,
however much I may disagree with its
general policy.
"But the president is not satisfied. He
demands the retirement and caucella-
ton of all the United States notes and
treasury notes by the sale of bonds of the
United States bearing interest.
"If this policy is adopted. to compel
the people of the United States 10 sur
reDder the best paper currency they have
ever enjoyed, it will fail. L revenue is
wanted TO meet current expenditures it
will be furnished either by taxation or
by borrowing, or by both, but to create
deficiencies in order to compel the can
collation. of United States notes by the Is
sue of bonds will not, in the language of
the president, meet with Legislative ap-
prevail
1.-The true remedy is to supply by tax
alton in some form, additional revenue
and until this can be effected, to borrow
from the people of the United States
enough money 10 cover past ana future
deficiencies. This done, gold will readily
be exchanged for United States notes as
was done from January, 1879, to she cleo
ton of Mr.. Cleveland.
"The president complains that the
United States notes are presented and
paid. reissued aud paid again and
again, making a continuous circuit
When did this circuit commence?
The only answer is when this
supported by the last con-
gress created a deficiency. Why does

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3-The following
is from Senator ShermOn's speech In the
senate today:
s'The president. said Mr. Sherman,
t'has mistaken the cause of our present
financial condition in attributing 1t to
the demand for gold for United States
notes, instead Of the deficiency of reve-
Rue caused by the legislation of the last
congress. He places the effect before
tie cause He proposes as q remedy
the conversion of the United States
notes and the treasury notes into
interest bearing bonds, thus increasing
the interest bearing debt nearly $780,
10000.
she proposes a line of public policy
that will produce a sharp contraction of
our currency, add greatly to the burden
of existing BITS and arrest the progress
almost every American industry which
tow com petes with foreign productions
E'The only difficulty in the way of an
easy maintenance of our notes at par
with coin, is that during this administra-
ton the revenues of the government have
not been sufficient to meet the expendi-
lures authorized by congress.
Nov for the first time since 1866 we
have deficiencies OF revenue. Since the
Est of March, 1898. to the 1st of Deem
Der, 1895, the national debt has been in
creased $162, 6J2.2 45.
The president, In his recent annual
message. complains that the law of Octo-
Der 6, 1890 known as the Mckinley act
was inefficient for the purpose of reve-
nue. The law, though it Target reduced
Ilxation by placing many articles on
kthe free list and granted a bounty
for the production of sugar, yet
did not reduce revenues below expendi-
lures but provided a surplus of So. 239.-

ST LOUIS, Jan. 3.-Over his own sigma
ture Patrick F. Sheedy, ex-Champion
John l. Sullivan's old manager, has
something interesting to say of Peter
Makers gameness, about which there
seems to be some doubt, especially in the
minds of those who witnessed the Irish
champion's inglorious defeat at the hands
of Joe Goddard. the Australian Sheedy's
signed article is as follows:
THE heroic sentiment that there never
was coward where the shamrock grew
is, think, belied in the case of Peter
Maher. l may be mistaken, and if so
am willing to retract With my own
eyes, however, 1 saw Maher de-
Ii herately lay down on two &C.
casions. The first was with Bob Fitz-
simmons at New Orleans; the second,
about fourteen months later, with Joe
Goddard at Coney Island. At New Or
leans he eaid to Fitzsimmons within the
hearing of fifty people, in the eleventh
round, don't knock me out, Pill quit
He did quit in the next round. AT Co
the third round, when he almost had the
Australian dead to the world. He didn't
speak this time; he simply lay on the
ground alternately squirting at Referee
John P. Eckert and the ferocious Aus
tralian, who stood in the middle of the
ring waiting for him to arise. Peter had
a suf1iciency, however, and would not
get up.
81 lay no store by Makers defeat of
O'Donnen. The latter is the rankest
counterfeit that ever stepped over a
rope. He is worse even than Jem Smith
