THE free coinage of silver should be
measure that would encourage the
development of silver produc ion in the
United States, not in Mexico, South
America. Spain and other silver pro-
ducirg countries of the earth. Free
coinage should therefore be confined to
our own product so long as it remains
national measure only.

ment, and here they will be received and
accommodated with trip to the top as
fast as the conyenieDces will allow. The
elevator will make twenty-three trips a
day, carrying thirty people each trip. This
means $50 people day or 4,14O people

That the number who walk up and down
will be double the number who ride there
is no doubt. This makes l $50 day
who will walk and $3.50 during the six
week days of the convention. This means
2,070 day to peep through the little
three-foOt holes 500 feet in the air, or
l. 2.47O during the six week days of the
convention.
There may be more to walk up md down

DAVIS FAMILY In NEED
Death of the Second Son Adds An
other Sorrow to This home.
The Father Is Enable to Work and
Nothing for the Mother u nd the
Two Remaining Children.

"Troubles never come siugly,"is is an old
adage. and this has been forcioly impressed
on the mud OF james Davis and his family,
who live at No. -l24 n street southeast.
The Times mentioned in its report OF ne
accident which Mr.. Davis sustained several
weeks ago, when lie had his arm crushed
under tue wheels or a freight traiu at Eek
lngtou, the destitute cODull .ol OF his Ianily
and the necessity OfimInediate aid from the
benevolent people OIL this city and vicinity.
Mr.. Davis had been out or work some time
previous to the calamity which beIelI him,
and with wife and three chiidreD one or
Tue latter SICK, depending on MN Ior sup
port the situation was decidedly serious.
1t was at tins tine the accident which cost
hinf his lett arm occurred anu placed him
in position OF dependence and charity.
NimrOd, the two-and- a h al year old
Child OF the family, died last Saturday and
Mr.. Davis and his family were at a loss 10
know how TO bury the child. The condition
ofthe family became kno wn to tire Deighbors
and TO the residents on the street and they
contributed nearly enough TO bury tie dead
child. The funeral took place yesterday
morning at IL O'Clock. The little body
was inferred in WoOdlawn Cemetery, only
the almost discouraged father and the heart
broken mother following the little one to
his last resting place.
The unfortunate accident to the father,
which deprived him OF an arm, aud the toss
Of his second son is all the harder to bear
coming, as they do, when the family are
in such destitute circumstances and without
the slightest prospect OF seeing the silver
lining to the dark cloud.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Davis are worthy
people. MIR. Davis is mechanic aud up TO
few weeks ago had steady employment.
The needs oil his family, and especially those
OF the invalid child, took all he could earn
making 1t impossible to save anything.
They are now in need and would be most
grateful for food or Clothing. household ef
fects or money to help them until the father
can find something to do to earn his own
living. Police Lieut.. McCathran of tie Fifth
