Blaine on Silver,

Speaking of the demonstration of
silver by the act of 1878, James G..
Blaine, the great successful leader of
the Republican party for so many years,
IN the senate, Feb. !, 1878, said:
Il believe gold and silver coin to be
the money of the constitution-indced
the money OF the American people an
terror to the constitution which the
great organic law recognized as quite
independent of its W existence. No
power was conferred on congress to de-
clare that either metal should not be
money. Congress has therefore, in my
judgment, no power to demOnetiZe sill
yer any more than to demonctize gold
no power to demonetize either thar to
demonetlzc both. If, therefore, silver
has been demOnetized, | am in favor Of
remonetizing it. If its coinage has been
prohibited, | am in favor of ordering it
to be resumed; if it has been restricted
l am in favor of having it enlarged. In
logic and legal construction it would
be difficult to show where and why the
power Of congress over silver is greater
than over gold, greater over either than
oven the two"

The Valuable "NIy Pretty Jan..~

My Pretty Jane was one of the
most profitable songs to the publish
ers ever written. Some years ago it
brought over SO, 900, yet all that
Mr.. Fitzball, the writer of the words,
and Sir Henry Bishop, the composer
of the music, jointly received did
not exceed 5000. Fitzball, to be sure,
declared that it took him just ten
minutes to write, and Bishop thought
so little of his own setting that he
had thrown the manuscript into the
waste paper basket, from which it
was tished out by the manager of
Vauxhall Gardens. But, even so,
the composer was surely entitled to
a proportiOnate reward with the
publisher, and it is not ~consoling to
recall the circumstance that Bishop
died almost a pauper. Chambers

Degenerate Tendencies of a Hat.

did you know that a derby hat
left on the shelves two or three
years would assume q funnier shape
than a fake baseball player?'' said a
Lisbon street halter a few days ago.
We'll, it's so. Here is a hat. 1t has
been on the shelf three years. Look
at it. Do you suppose l ever bought
such a bean pot as that? No man
ever designed it. Look at the brim.
1t isn't wider than the back of your
jackknife. The fact is that the hats
are made under pressure and heat.
Left to themselves they distort along
the lines of pressure. Sometimes the
brims crawl up into the crowns and
sometimes the crowns evaporate in
to the brims. I've seen an old fash
toned, fiat crowned, wide trimmed

The man turned pale. He was game,
hut he knew full well that a contest of
that kind was apt to lay either contest

that II contest Of this kind was impossi-
