looking clouds, around whose edge the
lightning played, as If to light them on,
in their sad and gloomy pathway. The
thunder muttered family. then sent it's

with increased power, cracked and shook
through the very heavens. The shrek
OF the squaw was heard in the profound

Night had set in with NIL its black

ed to behold the situation of the squaw.
Soon after their arrival flame of fire
suddenly lit up the woods. The pine was
struck by thunderbolt, setting it on
fire, which, being parted from the cleft
OF the rock, spun round and round SO
swiftly that naught could be traced of the
tree itself or the squaw whom they sup
posed to be attached to it. Upward it
hurried into the air, burning and whiz-
zing in its course, the torrents of rain
not even dimming its glare. Tradition
says it whirled with such velocity that
it did not seem to the eye to turn at all.
Away it went, and it is said tho Indi-
ans gazed at it until it seemed no big

How a Great CANVAS we. moved

The moving of a painting from q
pavilion of the city of Paris in the
Champs Elysees to the Auteuil gallery
offered very difficult problem 70 the
Paris city authorities. The printing, by
M. Roll, representing the celebration
Of July IA, is SO feet long by 90 feet
high and with the massive frame
weighs over 2,20O pounds. 1t was i'm
possible to move the painting in the
ordinary way. by taking the canvas off
the frame and rolling it, for the paint
ing, being vanished, it would probably
have cracked in several places. 1t was
therefore decided to move the canvas
and frame as whole. After much de-
liberation n special chariot was con-
structed over two of the floats which
were used i'll the Mardi Gras procession.
The city engineer. with eight laborers,
proceeded to the pavilion and the paint
ing was carried by eight men, eight
others bracing the upper part of the pic.

THE IMPROBABLE WALL.

Horace Boies, former governor o
Iowa and prominent candidate fol
the presidential nomination at Chicago
In July last, in a recent letter to Col
onel ID. M. Fox of Des Moines, which
the latter will print in his forthcoming
book, entitled "The Silver Side, >
practically abandons the contest fol
the free coinage of silver. Among
other things he says
"Let us, candidly inquire what con
stituted the impregnable wall against
which the silver forces were constantly
hurled, and from which they were
beaten back In spite of the hercuean
efforts of the most determined OF thcii
leaders.
"Was 1t anything less than II belief
that continuously grew in the public
mind as the canvass progressed that
the practical effect of success by the
friends OF silver would be the snbstitu-
tion of one of the money metals for the
other, of silver monOmctallism for
gold monometallism and that such a
change would increase instead OF di-
minish the misfortuncs we attribute to
u single standard Of gold?
"To my mind there il but one posi-
bic answer to this question. That was
the rock upon which our good ship
foundcred. it il still in the way. II
matters not how thoroughly we CON
vince the American people that gold
standard Is wrong unless we can go
farther and convince them also that
what we offer In its place II better in
stead of worse. This we did not sue
cecd In doing. There IL no argument
that can be used In the future to ac-
complish that end that was not thor
oughly exhausted in the contest W.
lost.
1t was not only the belief, but the
fact, demonstrated by history, that
the free coinage of silver ut u false
ratio with gold would establish silver
recommendation IN The United States
that discounted and conloundcd the
free silver hosts in the last campaign.
Mr.. Boies knows this, and he further
says:
For one do not believe il possible
to succeed upon u platform that de-
mnnds the unqualified free coinage oI
silver at the ratio Of III to with gold.
We have fought that battle and it Is
lost. We can mover fight II over under
circumstances more favorable to our
selves. IT We hope to succeed we must
abandon this extreme demand,
The American people may never
fully realize what financial evils they
escaped by refusing the extreme de
mand Of the free silver mon. With n
tide OF prosperity slowly, but surely,
rising upon the country, with money
everywhere seeking Investment, who
will be SO bold III to say that such
would have been the case. within so
short Il time, had the III to | idea OBJ
tanned. Even the most ardent friends
OF silver, including their chosen leader,
said that great financial distroSses
would doubtless come before II perfect
cure of our monetary system could be
effected. The complete abandonment
Of the III to idea would greatly hasten
viz i'hhlh VI li'Sl'l IVY wv '''''N'
that il will be abandoned, for thous-
ands like Governor l}oics who fol
lowed their party into the free silver
camp, know that the idea carries with

mntallsm which would Increase in
