STARTLING INCREASE!
Insanlty Last Year.

The increase Of insanity last year over the
preceding year was startling Think Of it.
persons suffering from nervous troubles, such
as sick and nervous headache, nervousness,
commissions, neuralgia, apoplexy, dyspepsia,
sIeeplessneSs paralysis, nervous prostration,
epilepsy, etc. The outlook would certainly
be discouraging for you were there no means
Of escape. Any Of the above difficulties,
and many more, are advance symptoms Of
insanity or some other equally deplorableCon-
dition ending in suicide or premature death.
Dr. Franklin Miles, the noted specialist,
has devoted over 20 years to the inveStiga-
ton Of nervous affections, and in the result
Of his laborS lies the only hope Of those afflict-
ed with the troubles named. His RestOra-
tive Nervine is positive means Of relief.
If you have any nervous affection attend to
it at once. Do not wait till your intellect is
shattered or the frenzy Of suicide overcomcS
you. Delay is dangerous.
Rev. J. R. Miller, Pastor Of the NJ. K. church,
Big Run, Pa writes: "0verwOrk caused me TO

That Settlement.

1t will be noticed that the county
commissioners have made settlement
with j.. F. Arnold upon a fifteen per
cent basis Of the face Of note given
for fees taken under a wrong con-
struction of law. 1t seems toIus that
Mr.. Arnold owed either all or nothing,
and under the circumstances we think
the latter the correct view. 1t is
probable that the notes due from Mr..
Mercer and Mr.. Barber for SIMILAR
fees will be adjusted upon the same
basis.

GOLD PRODUCTION.
Director Of the Mint Prepares a
Statement,

The director OF the mint has prepared a
statement in regard to the gold production
OF the world, which is OF special interest In
view Of the action OF the democratic con-
vention. In general. he estimates that the
gold production throughout the world for
the calendar year 1896 is equal to the az
gregate production OF gold and silver prior
10 1873. He says that the gold production
OF the world has been climbing steadily up-
ward since 1880. when 1t stood at slls s4s.- =
'oo. The figures Of 1892 were $l46 sI5 100;
OF 1873, $l51.2S1 .600 and OF 1894, slsa &C.,
ioo The figures for 1895 have not been
fuily verified. but production of s2o3 ooO.- :
ooo IL considered conservative estimate
The production of 1896 is estimated at not
less than s220O0oOOO
The United States is expected to show an
increase this year from s47,0oaDo in 1888
10 $O.ooOUO0 This is regarded as the low
est probable production, and SD OOOOoO is
considered a not improbable figure This
viii keep the United States at the head of
gold-producing countries She attained this
pos.uon last year, and crowded Australia
and Africa from the first and second places
which they occupied IN 1894. Production In
tne W.twatersrandt region OF South Africa
was retarded somewhat during the closing
nall OF 1895, and has been delayed during
the early part OF the present year by the
pohticai troubles In the Transvaal Their
tus 10 production and to raise the product
Tor 1876 several millions above that of 1884
or 1898.
The Increase in Russia the last of tho
Tour great gold-producing countries, is
coming manly from Siberia. Rich finds OF
eold nave been reported from the Lena
basin, which bid fair to make Siberia a
large Independent producer of gold IL the
nrst reports are confirmed by scientific in
Vesugatlon. China is also expected to enter
tne circle OF large producing countries
Wheh the concessions granted to foreign
capitalists are taken advantage of and
means OF communication penetrate her un-
traVersed distances. Mexico is also show
ing gains, although she has not yet taken
her place among the great producers of the
yellow metal ~
Some OF the mines so famous In the times
OF Sortez are being surveyed and cleared
OF debris, and modern machinery is being
imported for their operation These mines
are likely to prove profitable when worked
pv modern methods, but time will be re-
CURED TO transport the machinery in cases
where means OF communication are def
cient. ~
Alaska lis likely to cut something OF a
nsufe IN the production OF the United
states, out the figures for the present yea
VIII probably not make so good a showing
as those OF later years, when SURVEYS have
been completed and machinery has he.n
put in operation.
The fact that the gold production has
peen SO large during the last three wears ia
regarded by the advocates of the eold
stdhdard as a conclusive argument against
the necessity OF increasing the Supply of
metallic money by the addition of silver
