Donth OF Ira q. l. RILEY.
Mrs. Chauncey 1. Finley died In 81
Louis on the morning Of the eth, aged
05 years.
Death resulted from cold which developed
Into pleurisy ana pneumonia. Mr.. Filley re.
manned devoted st her bedside during her brief
illness, always hoping for the best But when
death came the man OF iron gave way, and the
parting from her who had been tender wife
and helpmate for more than forty years seemed
TO be more than he could bear.
Mrs. Fflley was woman OF many excellent
qualities. She was dignihed in appearance.
with wavy. snow-white hair and q face full OF
Intelligence. In quiet way she was q re-
former and philnnthropist, and many Of the
charities she dispensed will never be known to
the public. She never permitted wine or in-
toxicating liquors to be served to her hus-
ever great the number Of callers might bo,
she was always ready with coffee and other
light refreshments.
She read widely, and was charming con.
versationalist. A little story which she wrote
for her Sunday-school class at Christ Church
Cathedral, ST. Louis, has recently been pub
lished. 1t is entitled "The Chapel Of the In
fant Jesus; or, What Nobody Ever Told Me-"
Mrs. Filley was born in Lansingburg, N. Y,
in 1880. and was o Miss Anna Elizabeth Adams
She was Of Scotch and Knickerbocker Dutch
ancestry and was connected with the Adams
family, SO prominently identified with the po-
litical and educational AFFAIRS Of New England
and Of the nation.
The Missouri National Guard.
The war department has issued a
publication showing the condition of
the militia during 1895. OF the Mis-.
souri, national guard it says:
Concerning mobilization, the report states
that 90 per cent. Of the First regiment can
probably concentrate at their armory in st.
Louis within two hours during business hours,
and at night In three hours; 95 per cent could
be concentrated at five hours notice.
The Second regiment would need ten
hours for concentration at Carthage;
so per cent. to be depended upon. Eighty per
cent. Of the Third regiment could be concen-
trated at Kansas City within three hours, and
e5 per cent. in five hours. The Fourth regi-
ment requires IL hours to concentrate ut
Brookaeld, 90 per cent. to be depended upon.
The whole force could be concentrated for
short service in St. Louis IN "a hour
As to armament, the report states that it Is
generally In poor condition, although IL Is evil
dent that the several commands have attempt-
ed to take care Of their arms. As to the ar.
tillcry. the carriages are old, prolonge ropes
rotton. chains rusted, and neither the
guns, carriages nor caisson, have been
painted for months. It is doubtful IL
the carriages could stand any consid-
cradle amount Of firing with solid shot. There
are few rifles in the infantry army in good con-
dition, most OF the guns being very rusty. and
Il per cent. are unserviceable. The cavalry
has no equipment, and the artillery's equip
ment is in very bad condition, especially the
harness. The equipments Of the infantry are
in good condition, but show no indication of
especial care.

Until n week ago very little was said
about the possible Democratic nominee
for President. About all the prominent
free silver men In the party were suG-
sested and at least one not In the party
had some favorable mention. But there
was almost no interest In the ticket. The
platform was the thing and It Is the
thing to-day, with the convention but
one day off.
The big men OF the Democratic party
do not wish the nomination and not one
OF them could get II. In the nature OF
the case It is n struggle among the lit
tie men for the distinction OF leading
to defeat 1t seems that Bland. OF Mig
souri,. Is In the lead, with BoIes, of Iowa,
second, and Teller, OF Colorado. who Is
not n Democrat, next. Nobody else Is
much talked of.
II the Democratic party rs It is to ap-
pear at Chicago were sane, does any
body suppose that Bland Boies and
Teller would have this standing before
Democratic national convention? II
IS not the Democratic party that Is
about to meet in Chicago. and It is bu:
just to say so. 1t Is n gathering Of rag
tag and bob-iail which has seized the
Democratic organization to make II
serve the ends OF the currency de-
basers.-
There will be no Democratic national
convention this year For true Demo-
Gratis In 1896 Is an off-year.

lIr. Cleveland Again.

President Cleveland. In his letter read
at Tammany's Fourth OF July celcbra-
ton. gives the free silver element In his
party what he may intend as his part
Ing shot before the national convention.
Here is pointed part OF his letter:
The high and firm financial ground
which we have thus far been able TO hold
should not be abandoned In the pursuit OF
q policy, never attempted without national
injury, and whose bright promise OF In
dylLuai benefit OF 1t has never been full
filed.
4 II there Is anything In present conhI-
lions that impeuchcs experience and lndl-
Gates that We can safely change our pres
ent high financial standard for the free,
unlimited and Independent coinage OF sill
yer. this should he made plainly apparent
before such II radical departure finds Il
place In party creed.
The tremendous consequences OF n mis-
take In dealing with the financial quGS-
ton now pressed upon us Democrats
should constantly make us thoughtful and
solicitous.
The monetary policy never attempted
without national injury" Is to be at
tempted now II the men who have cap
turcd the Democratic organization have
their way. Tho lessons OF experience
are nothing to thcm-thcy will give the
country new experience. The maXim3
of sound finance do not bother them
they will formulate other maxrns. The
tremendous consequences OF making n
mistake in dealing with the financial
question" do not appnl thcm-they can
fiddle and watch the fire.
President Clevelnnd's words OF warn
Ing will probably fall on dun ears. but
they do him credit. nevertheless.
