MRS. HENRT7S MAGNIFICENT
APPEAL.

DANvilLE. Nov >. Mrs Josephine X
Henry Z speech at the Opera House here
saturday night WAS thrilling close OF
tue democratic campaign IN Boyle. Mrs
Hrnry's reception on her entry WIS an
ovation that would have inspired an
ascetlc. The intelligence and culture
OF Danviile and her neighbors within a
radius Of 20 miles jsmmed the buildir &
beyond the capacity OF the conventional
omnibus 20 afford room for one more.
Such enthusiasm and decorum were new.
OF in evidence before at political gath
ering here. Mrs. Henry is petite wo
man OF 30 pounds, the first OF her sex
that majority OF her hearers ever heard
essay the entertainment and enlighten-
ment OF an suieDcs with IA public
speech, and that the compass OF her
voice was 10 the full measure of the room
is marvel. How long she spoke have
yet to hear an estimate offered and her
every intimation OF closing was met with
a demand 10 Go on go on all night"
Yonr scribe will rot attempt report Of
the speech. Conservative and compe-
tent auditors pronounce hers the most
versatile, mprehensive, logical and
convincing presentation Of the democrat
ic cause heard during this campaign.
The exhaustive research aud familiarity
with political history manifested in a
clear, modest, convincing and supeIls
lively eloquent diction, absolutely de-
void of demsgogy, would be wonderful
in an accredited professional politician.
But two or three times was the crowd
impelIed TO applause by chaste and csus-
tic wit. The sppesls were to reason, pa
uiotism and philanthropy. After curl
Gus and anxious inspection Of the gsudy
togers Of a conservatory to fad dimin-
utive lily the source OF rsvishinR per-
fume, is less surprising than that so
small and fragile casket should be the
repository OF such versatile mind and
all inclusive heart. To meet and hear is
to unreservedly accord that iDcompsrs-
bic woman, Josephine X. Henry, an adj.
miIation little less than worship.

vessel will eventually arrive at Spitz-

penetrated they, found the ice broken.
Large patches of water were also found,
$500 meters deep. Below the depth OF
100 meters the water was appreciably
warmer, probably owing to the gulf
stream. Rocky scars, OF which the ex-

DIR. hansen adds that during the win

feed the dogs, he killed the weakest dogs
and fed them to the others until the
whole pack was killed. He and Lieut..
Hansen started on May 10 TO try TO reach

weeks on snowshoes. dragging sledges

A Distinction which IL Not Commonly
Understood by the Voters.

That was an admirably put truth
which Speaker Reed gave TO his hear
crs at Alfred when he said: "What We
want Is not more money, but more capi-
tai" 1t Is truth which people who
engage In financial discussion are like
ly TO forget unless they are trained
to careful thinking on the subject. The
distinction between money and capital
Is not always apparent TO the voter
who has little head for finances. but
who is striving TO bring hazy UNDER
standing To some conclusion on the
much-discussed money question.
In the first place, let them learn once
for all that money is a medium of eN-
change. and nothing else. SO far as II
enters into the present controversy.
The free silverite meets "A poor man.
and tells him the reason he is poor is
that there is not enough money. The
poor man confuses money with capital.
thinks that is reasonable, and imagines
he can benefit himself by having more
money made. He does not realize that
the making of more money will not
make him richer by cent The only
way he can grow rich is by acquiring
more property, and that he can only do
by giving his labor in some form for &C.
II the printing of greenbacks. or the
Gebasement OF coinage, or the issue of
dollars of inferior value could increase
the capital of the country, then he
might reap some benefit from the oper-
alton, but as It is, such imitation onl
increases the amount OF the medium Of
exchange. That could make nobody
richer. even il every new piece for ex.
change should be worth 100 cents, much
less IL IL is worth only SO cents. No sor-
OF hocus-pocus can make something out
OF nothing. The government may coin
dollars by the million, but no man will
find them of any use unless he has some
thing 10 give for those dollars. They
will lie in the treasury, as many do now,
because there is no way TO get them
