 "At the same time much discontent is expressed over the failure of the ad- ministration to promote certain prin- ciples and policies which gold men have favored, and especially its failure to meet the question of currency reform, which many gold democrats here think must now be thrust into the fore ground

FAMOUS Crows LIFE ENDED.-Billy,
the famous crow owned by DR.. c. De la
Montague, of Port Even, N. Y, is
dead. He becams renowned for his
wonderful sagacity. Whenever out of
town persons went there their visit was
not complete unless they saw Billy.
One Of his favorite pastimes was to fly
from house TO house visiting the neigh
bors, and sit in the window begging for
some dainty morsel. Another of his
habits was to go riding with the Doctor
on his visits to his patients.
He was fond of fast riding, and if the
horse went too slow he would fly on his
back and continually peck at him until
he increased his speed.
The Doctor brought home g band
some full blooded Irish setter Wednes-
day. When Billy saw 80 much attention
being bestowed on the dog he became
enraeed with jealousy. No sooner was
the dog liberated than Billy few on his
head and commenced to pick ut his
ewes. Several times the dog went yelp-
ing about the yard, and then dashed
through beard fence. Billy crashed
against the fence and fell to the ground,
stunned. He died from the effects OF
the collision.

cleared Matthews Of the charge. Then

Joseph A. Jeffries, both laying claim to
