STORIES OF JOAQUIN MILLER.

Joaquin Miller, who Dis up in the
Klondike country, must be a man of
60 some years by now, says a writer in
the Philadelphia Press. But he is As
much entitled, baptismally, to the name
joaquin" as was General Grant to his
equally eccentric Ulysses.
Early in the 70'S "Wawkeen" could
hardly read or write, n he was heard
r~emarking one day, with delightful ap-
lomb, in the Carbon of the Gods Il
have saw rocks that beat them"
But Joaquin had brains, and, I for
one, trust he has them yet, though his
latest adventure has not increased any
confidence in his sanity. So far back
as New Years day, 1882 q think), I had
a long talk with him in New York city.
The world was then still drinking egg
nog On New Years instead Of going to
church, and young men in tall hats
and long coats, and in coupes, were
seeking the drink they would devour.
Joaquin was ladling out mild milk
punch with one hand and forking out
cold cartridges with the other. He a
an e~cstatic look on him. The job was
agreeable to both parties concerned.
He said to me then:
This kind of thing is all very we'll
for a week or two, but, great Scot!

about the interior Of h cabin, remark
ed it's pleasant squalor, and said that

Joaquin's early illiteracy-using the
ord kindly and in its proper sense.

of his correspondents. / do not know

The Southern Manufacturing Com

the market about four years ago; n
since that time its trade has increased
to immense proportions. The company
is row confirming itself exclusively to the

has been and is intense excite
ment, although strong effort is
being made to keepit from break
ing out. Representative Gibson
Of Tenn. offered a resolution in
the house for a peremptory demand
upon Spain for the immediate re-
lease Of every American imprison-
ed in Cuba, and for the bombard-
ment of Havana if it be not at
once complied with. The senate
adopted a resolution requesting
Secretary Olney to furnish it with
copies of communications to and
from Consul Gen. Lee, and an
other lnstructing the president to
demand the Immediate release of
Julio Sanguilly, citizen of the
United States, and suitable in
demnity from Spain for his un-
just imprisonment. The last is a
Joint resolution, which was un-
anirnously reported from the for
eign relations committee. Had it
been put through earlier, Pres1-
dent Cleveland would have had to
act one way or the other upon 1T,
but now even if passed by the
house it is subject to pocket
veto.
The address issued this week
by the silver republicans in con-
gress has not pleased the politi-
clans in either of the parties, be-
cause it Indicates an intention to
maintain silver republican par
|ty, by naming provisional ma
tional committee and providing
for it to hold a meeting in Chi
cago next June. The republicans
do not like this, because they fear
its effect upon the rank aud file
of their party in a number of
states; the democrats and popu-
lists dislike it because they had
expected to gain the silver repub-
llcans as recruits. Another thing
about the address that the popu-
lists do not like is that Senator
Jones of Nevada, who last year
publicly declared himself to be a
populist and to have cut loose
from the republican party, signed
it. Senator Stewart of the same
state did not sign it. The meet
ing at which the address was pre-
pared was held at Senator Teller's
house.
Some of the western men in
congress are making warm fight
on President Cleveland's procla-
nation setting aside 21,0OO, 900
acres of land to make thirteen
forest reserves. A delegation
consisting of Senator Clark and
Representative Mundell of Wyon1-
ing and Representative Gamble
of S. Dakota made a vigorous pro-
test to Secretary Francis. Sena-
tor Wilson of Wash. said on the
floor of the senate that the proc
lamat1on should not have been
issued; Senator Cannon Of Utah
said it designated as forest land
tracts which contained no timber
! larger than jack rabbit bush,
and Senator Clark said he knew
