what Became Of the Money.

tOiH w III ITO COPiC al
, ty Paper, Atlanta, Ca, thus an
swers a correspondent as to what
became of the money:
The only way that Mr.. McLendor
can argue the question with any
hope Of convincing the average
gold.bug is by using the govern
ment reports.
If he will turn to page % of the
U. s. Statistical Abstract for 1886,
he will see that state-bank notes,
demanded notes, one and two year
notes, compound interest notes,
national bank notes, legal tender
notes (greenbacks), legal tender
certificates, silver certificates, and
gold certificates are given in the Of
fetal table as parts of the currency
then in circulation.
If he will then turn to page SO of
the U. S. Statistical Abstract for
1895, he will find a statement of
the money in circulation in 1895.
In this latter statement no state
bank notes are mentioned What
had become of them?
On June 30, 1860, there were
two hundred and seven million
dollars of staie.bank notes in cir
culation on June 30, 1886, only
one hundred and thirty'two thou
sand remained.
What had become of the others ?
In 1895, not one of the state
bank notes remained What had
become of them? Where are they
now? Again, in the statement for
1895, no demand notes are given.
They were no longer in circulation.
What had become of them? Mel
ther were there any compound in
terest notes, or one aud two year
notes left. What had become of
them?
In the statement of 1886 it was
shown that in the year 1864 the
greenbacks in circulation ammount-
ed to SAT, 800, 2O3.
In the table of 1895, the ammOunt
of greenbacks in circulation is Civ
en- at $346, 6Sl ,026.
What had become of the others?
These two government reports
will convince any gold-bug who is
The other sort can't
be reached in this world.
The state-bank notes have been
called in and destroyed The best
way to DESTROY paper is with fire:
therefore the state bank notes were
burnt.
The one and two year notes were
called in and burnt.
The compound interest notes were
burnt. The scven.thirty notes were
Durnt. The greenbacks were burnt
all but the 1916, 6SI .O61.
These would also have been
burnt had it not been for the act of
congress 1879 which put stop to

In the fourth half" for Saturdays
game was a continuation of q former
90 game. Scranton broke the ice and
scored against Wyoming seminary at
Athletic park. The first half was a
series of see-saw tries for the necessary
five yards. with forced kicks following
nearly every try. Neither side could
make any material headway, so evenly
were the teams matched and so desper-
ate was the resistance. When the sec
ond half opened up Zang went into the
line and Gelbert took Thayer's place at
half, Thayer going to full-back. Gel
bert was given the ball on the opening
play and with the aid of Zang. Posner
and Thayer. made a beautiful seventy
yard run for a touchdown, just three
minutes from the call of time.
On the next kickoff Posner and Gel
bert carried the ball to Wyoming's
thirty-five-yard line and then on a fake
pass Posner carried 1t another thirty
yards, being tackled five yards from
Wyomirg's goal. Here the Seminarians
by superhuman effort held the Scran-
tons for four downs and upon receiving
the ball kicked 1t out of danger. The
game closed with each team kicking the
ball out of it's territory as fast as 1t re-
ceived 1t.
Scranton had the best of the second
half and should have scored two touch
downs instead of one. Zang, Posner.

Philadelphia. Nov. S.-Pennsylvania
yesterday, made better showing
against the Indians than did any of the
other varsity teams which have tackled
them this season. Pennsylvania rolled
up II poins and prevented the Indians
from scoring. Princeton made 2.
against the Indians 6. Yale played Q
tie game with them but the official
score staids II to 6, owing to a misjudg-
ment of the referee, which robbed the
redmen of 6 points. Harvard prevented
the Indians from scoring, but they We're
kept so busy doing this that they made
but points. ON the surface this
would indicate that Pennsylvania has
the best team of the four but football
history goes to show that no reliance
can be placed on these estimates. If
any thing it proves is that the Indians
are not as good as any one OF the
big college teams. 1t gives no reliable
indication of the respective merits of
the other teams.
Pennsylvania was not expected to
make the showing 1t did and 1t Is only
through the excellent headwork Of Its
directorate that it made such a show
ing. There ism foot ball eleven in
the country that can beat the Carlisle
Indians in q brawn and muscle game.
They are regretfully weak, though. in
the tricks of the game. Pennsylvania
discovered this in. watching their work
against Princeton. Yale and Harvard
and took every advantage of it in yes
terday's game. One OF their scores was
made from double pass, another from
their old time quarter back trick and
another from Il drop from the field.
This last, of course, is not generally
aracteriZed as a trick of the game,
but wide-awake teams are generally
successful in preventing their Oppon-
ent's from getting into position to at
tempt it.
Pennsylvania kept the Indians on the
defensive during the whole of the first
half and until the closing ten minutes
of the second half, when the Indians
got the ball and by u series of fierce
rushes, principally mass plays on the
center worked the bali to within six
inches of Ienn's goal. Here the Quakers
by superhuman effort held the red
men and got the ball just as time was
called. The Quakers were pretty well
scared and glad that the game was
over The features of the game were
50 yard run around left end for a
touch down by Colbert and the wonder
full line buckins of MeloXen, the In
dians full back. The game was wit
messed by 1900 people.

Defeat of Brown by Yale.

Providence, r. l.. Nov. S.-Yale de-
feated Brown here yesterday by a
score of IS to 6. The Providence lads
put up q plucky game and during the
first half made an excellent showing.
They We're compelled to finish out the
game with five substitutes owing to
injuries to the regulars and in conse-
quence Yale had things her own way.
The feature Of the game was the all
around playing of Fultz, Browns righl
half, who among other things made n
ninety yard run through the entire Yale
eleven for touch down, and again by
a fifty yard run carrying the ball to
Yales four yard line. Yales best efforts
were required to prevent another touch
down resulting from this run.

Cambridge. Nov. S.-Baird's superior
kicking and Dunlap's retirement from
the game in the second half were two
of the principal agencies in the defeat
of Harvard by Princeton yesterday.
There was no scoring in the first half
although Harvard had an easy chance
on blocked kick, and the play was
about even, except that Baird out
kicked Brown and thereby managed to
keep the ball in the Harvard territory.
Dunlap was laid out in the second half
and his steady head and great strength
was severely missed by Harvard at
critical times. so much so indeed that
the two touch downs with resultant
goals secured in the second half might
be attributed in no small measure to
his absence.

SOUTH SIDE NEWS.
Rev. Mr.. Lisse Installed Pastor Of Christ
Lutheran Church Of CEDAR Avenue.
Death Of Mrs. Winifred O'Connor.

Rev. Henry F. F. Lisse was last night
installed pastor of Christ Lutheran.
church of Cedar avenue This service
is to be done by the president of the
conference and only in exceptional
cases is the rule departed from, and
one of the times is when it is the
earnest request Ofthe pastor that some
near friend perform it. Such was the
case last night. Rev. o. w. Fisher, of
PittstOn, conducted the installation.
Rev. Mr.. Lisse has come here from
Bridgeton, N. j, where he labored in
the Masters vineyard since his ordin-
alton six years ago. In the adjoining
parish Rev. Mr.. Fisher cared for the
welfare of souls until he came to Pitts
ton last January. And they We're close
friends. 1nasmuch as both have taken
up their work in the conference and
were only a few miles apart, II was
the earnest wish of the new pastor
of Christ church that his brother in the
ministry act.
The church was crowded. Around the
altar a bank of fragrant flowers was
ranged. The altar service was first con-
Quoted by Rev. w. j. Randolph, pastor
of st. Peters Lutheran church. Peters,
burg. The sermon was preached by
Rev. Mr.. Fisher. His text was from the
third chapter of the second epistle To
the Corinthians, and the sermon
taught that the ministers are Gods
fellow workmen. The result of spirit
ual labor comes from God. He that
plants and he that waters the plants
are nothing: it is God that gives the
increase. The increase is His grace
and il is given in the measure that men
work and labor for it. The speaker
urged the congregation to be faithful
to the pastor and assist him in his work
and God will give the increase.
At the end of the sermon the pastor
and the men of the council of the
church stood around the altar rail and
receivedthe charge frOm the officiating
clergyman. This was followed with
benediction by the pastor.
