Arrested for Counterfeiting United States
Coins.
New York, January 24.-Henry Bar
nard and his wife, Charlotte, were ar
rested to-day at their home in Forty
fourth street and committed to Jail in
default of $4,000 charged by United
States secret service agents with coun-
terfeiting silver coins. Secret service
agent Bagg says that Barnard is an
expert counterfeiter and that he has
been passing his worthless coins in
small shops on the West Side for sew
eral weeks. His limitations of United
States coins were so good said Mr..
Bagg. that Barnard had no scruples In
passin gthe counterfeits in the same
stores over and over again.
Barnard's home was searched and in
it was found an extensive counterfeit
ing plant, consisting of anthony, tin,
"copper" plating apparatus, files and
about S25 in bad coins. Mrs. Barnard
was arrested charged with being cog
infant of her husbands criminal pro-
ceedings. The two children of the cou-
pie were placed in charge Of the Gerry

Chicago. January 24.-The North

When the fire engines arrived 1t was
found that the water in every plug in
The neighborhood had been frozen and
fifteen minutes elapsed before stream

During this time the fire spread with
such alarming rapidity that the resi-

to move their household effects out OF
their homes. Finally when water had
been turned on the flames enveloped
the entire building. The fremen, how
ever. kept the fire confinfied to the

The Northwestern Stove Repair
Company is owned by Robert l.. and
Ralph S. Greenlee. They place the
damage on the contents of their es-
tablishment at 100000, and on the
building at 1925, 900. The exact am
cunt of insurance is not known, but 1t
is thought that the loss is almost en-
tirely covered.
Three firemen and Waterman en-
ployed by the stove company were IN
jured during the fire.

FACTS ABOUT SrREErBAmROADS.


The Street Railway Journal pub
fishes an interesting statement of the
financial characteristics of % surface
and elevated street railroads whose
gross earnings equal or exceed $1,000
600 per year, and which are described
as very good investments.
The fact u.s. says an exchange,
that some OF the very best invest
meuts are found in street railway prop
erty." We agree with the opinion, but
believe also that the statement pub
Hshed by the Journal is of interest TO
many besides those seeking invest
ment. and especially to the people of
cities in which the granting of street
railway franchises is a live and inn
portant issue.
The Manhattan railway system in
New York. considered the most valua-
BILE in the world. earns 1863 900 per
mile of road. or $4,000 per mile of
track. IL is operated for so per cent.
of its gross receipts, and of the re-
naming 40 per cent. 1911 per cent is
required to pay interest on the funded
debt. The tremendous underlying
strength of all New York properties,
and especially of the Manhattan sys-
tenn" says the Journal. lies in the fact
that the population density of Manhat-
tan island is steadily increasing, and
within q few years every transporta-
ton system that can possibly 5e laid
out above or below ground will be
taxed to the utmost TO carry the people
who wish to ride The Chicago City
Railway Company pays regular diyi-
dends of 70 per cent. and in 1893 the

The gross receipts of the Cleveland
Electric Street Railway Company for
1895 were Sl503.62O and the interest
charges called for only 12.2 per cent.
of the gross receipts.
There is money in the street railway
business and lots of it-a fact which
city councils. which are usually very
rash in the matter of giving away fran
chises. should not lose sight Of

THE RL1rE-CoATEp AUToCRAT.
SENATOR GEORGE,
Of Mississippi, Dangerously III in a
Hospital in Washington City--HiS
Advanced Age Makes The Outcome
Very Uncertain.

WASHINGTON, January 24.-United
States Senator James Z. George, Of Missis-
sippi, is dangerously i'll from hear failure
at the Garfield Hospital. in this city, and
owing TO his advanced age his friends are
very apprehensive of the outcome. Two
grandchildren. Miss Hemingway and Mr..
George his private secretary, are with
him. while his daughter Mrs. Henderson,
and his sons have been summoned to his
bedside from their home in Mississippi.
For some months the Senator has been
suffering from this same trouble, and he
was unable to be In Washington at the
opening of Congress i'm December. Less
than three weeks ago, while still very i'll.
he came to the city and at once placed
himself under the care of DR.. Bermann,
who' with DR. Fry. advised him TO go to
the hospital for treatment. He has been
there since that time His condition not
showing satisfactory improvement, con-
sultation was held yesterday between the
two physicians and DR. Osler professor at
Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore,
and the conclusion reached that the Sena-
tors condition was very serious and that
his condition will require the greatest care
and most skillful treatment. To-day he
was unimproved though he rested quietly.
Senator Georges i'll health is due to his
advanced age accelerated by years of hard
and constant work. The Senator's wife
is in Mississippi. Owing to an attack of
paralysis she will not be able to come to
Washington.
Senator George who is now in his seven
ty-irst year. has served as a member of
the United States Senate for nearly six
teen years. and the term for which he was
elected expires March 80. 1899. He was a
gallant soldier in the Mexican and civil
wars Serving on the Confederate side and
is well known lawyer. He held import
ant judicial positions in his State prior TO
his election TO the Senate.

observers were declared to. he gross
exlggerations. The official statements
were uniformly favorable until Jhey
came TO be regarded as equally unre-
liable with Official reports OF Spanish
victories in Cuba. Meanwhile the
area Of famine went on increasing an
I'll il now covers a territory rs large
as that of all New England New York,
New Jersey. Pennsylvania, Ohio, West
Virginia. Michigan and Indiana.
Throughout two-thirds of this i'm
mense area the distress is very great.
The deadly famine of twenty years ago
was lar less in extent of area and de-
gree of suffering. The population al
fected at that time was but one-third
of that now in the famine region, the
famine area of that time being but
two-thirds of the present and less
densely populated.
Relief to some extent has been fur
nished from the United States and Rus
STA. but the help thus given is but
uiaing compared with the great and
rapidly increasing need The Indian
government has at last acknowledged
the appalling extent of THE distress
and the urgent need of all the help
that can possibly be obtained. Public
subscriptions have been opened in Eng
land and aid begins to flow in literally.
Behind the famine horror another
dread is Swallowed forth. Signs of the
spirit of unrest among the natives
which preceded the great mutiny are
again apparent TO military observers.
A bureaucratic rule. irksome to the ma
tives. new regulations, which they re
gard as oppressive and that unneces-
sarilv interfere with their traditional
customs and ways of living, increas-
ing cost of existence and decreasing
earnings. owing TO short crops and
changes in the monetary system, have
combined to make the people dissatis-
fed. This dissatisfaction has been fos-
tered by the native papers printed in
dialects understood by few of the Eng
ish officials and subordinates and
these little sheets have seized on the
famine and the apparent indifference
of the English authorities in India as
a means of inAaming the natives
against these foreign rulers.
Lord Roberts. who knows more of
India and its people than any other
representing English rule in that en-
pire. has warned England of the Un-
satisfactory condition of affairs there
and the urgent necessity of preeau-
tions against a sudden outbreak if
changes in the government policy to-
wards the natives are not speedily
made. But Lord Roberts is a soldier
and the civilian officials smile a. his
warnings as without other foundation
than his own Imagination.

THE BAKED BANANA.
An Enthusiast Who Claims That the Merits
of the Fruit Are Not Known.

An Enthusiast Who Claims That the Merits
of the Fruit Are Not Known.
Cor. of the New York Tribune.
Bestow a boon on humanity and help
to popularize the backed banana as an
article of food for rich and poor espe
cially the poor. No poor child need go
to school hungry. One cent will buy
good sized banana, which, when baked
in its skin in an oven for fifteen or
twenty minutes, until it is quite soft and
bursts open, alone makes a full meal.
Now, the bananas sold at street cor
ners are really plantains. Humboldt,
calculated the food product Of the
plantatin, compared with the potato,
as A to /, and compared with wheat
as 1873 to l. / say from personal eX-
perience that three bananas weighing
! pound are equal in nourishment 10
26 pounds of bread when baked.
Bananas must never be eaten raw;
they are full of animal germs. Raw
bananas are indigestible. Youngsters
fed on raw bananas nearly always suf-
fer from disease of the intestinal canal
and commissions. Physicians call such
children banana babies
Baked bananas are also the ideal food
for nervous persons and anaemics, also
brain workers. | learned their great
power TO sustain mental effort in India.
If Wall street brokers and others who
are under great mental strain would,
on two mornings every week, include
a couple of baked bananas in their
menu and leave out the chop or steak,
they would last longer | am as hard
a brain worker as any person in New
York, and | have subsisted for years
entirely on baked bananas. When see
lean, blood-pooT persons, | advise them
to eat baked bananas, and they unfail-
ingly build up and gain flesh.
This subject, which might not map
propriately be called the "banaa cure, y
because many illnesses can be cured
by eating baked bananas, merits the
closest Investigation. The introduc-
ton of the potato was great boon to
the people. but I predict that the
spreading of a knowledge Of the above
facts over this country will prove Of
still greater benefit.

SEPARATING THE DEAt AND BLIND.

SEPARATING THE DEAF AND BLIND.
The Register does not care to offer
extraneous advice in the matter of the
separation OF the deaf and dumb from
the blind in the Deaf, Dumb and Blind
Asylum at Romney.
1t is. to a certain extent. none Of
our business. and we recognize the fact
that we are not competent TO give ex-
pert testimony on the subject, yet we
do know that the proposed separation
of the two classes of these unfortu-
mates is most desirable-a fact, by the
way. that is not disputed. The only
question raised is as to which shall
leave Romney. The dispute, in our
opinion. is a very foolish one, for if it
is not soon settled, it may defeat all
legislation on this subject by the pres
ent Legislature, which could hardly
take time to decide the merits of so
complicated a case.
What the Register wishes to say is
this: If the blind inmates of the insti-
tuition have to be removed, by all
means let them be removed to some
large town, Wheeling for instance,
where their education would be very
much accelerated by the opportunities
to cultivate their next important sense
that Of hearing. The churches, lee
lures. theatres and society in general
would constitute natural object lessons
to these unfortunates that could be
obtained in any other way.
