n1AMErRIcALLY. OPPOSED

The vote in the house on the Teller
resolution, which passed the senate,
by fifteen majority. has been had and
the majority the other way is fifty. The
house by its vote does not negative the
law or the Stanley resolution. The
Teller resolution was killed in the in
terest Of the national credit. And so
the money question is left practically
inst where il was. The free silver, 10
to /. party has gained nothing unless
it be in that OF calling national atten-
ton to the fact that the money ques-
ion is not settled What everybody
wants is the largest possible use Of sill
yer as. near}4 81. % to the ounce as may
be. in this the Republican party has
the best Of the fight, whereas nothing
would raise the price and use OF silver
so markedly as international bimetai-
rsm. The independent free coinage Of
silver in the United States would only
affect the commercial value Of silver in
foreign countries to d small degree. In
ternatfonal agreement or treaty would
force its commercial value up some
where near its coin-face inscription.
The administration stands Tor interna-
uonaI bfmetallism. The Republican
platform in declaring for that policy
has the stronger hold on the situation,
the most tenable and logical. Silver,
commercially, has refrigerated so far
in value that only International action
can save it from becoming a base
rather than precious metal. That
plank Of the Republican platform Will
vet be found to be saving clause, as
in the absence Of some unforeseen
event the money question is bound to
L. q 11r.incinaI issue.

The sxeed That Gen. shnfter Rode In
Many q Hot Chase After
indians.

Old Club, the horse ridden by Gen.
Shafter In many hot chase after the
Indians during the seventies, is still
alive. says the New York Herald, and
in his old age earns his daily allow
ance of oats by drawing a delivery
wagon for Louis Jean, Frenchman.
who runs small grocery in Ell Paso.
Texas.
Old Club was Gen. Skaters mount
while he was lieutenant colonel at
Fort Davis, Tex, and carried the gall
liant soldier into the midst OF many
murderous bands of Apache warriors
without faltering. Astride of Old
Club. Shafter led his regiment at San
Felipe, then the rendezvous of the
Apaches. up to Live Oak creek, and up
and down both sides of the Pecos river.
Bill. Old Club and his master drove
the Indians out of Texas and back to
the reservation in New Mexico, and
Skaters name became terror 10 the
redskins and his reputation as q
fighter was made.
The war horse was condemned at
Fort Davis in 1882 as being too old for
work. He was then believed to be 13
years of age and must now be at least
90 After he had been condemned as
unfit longer to serve his country on
the battlefield Old Club was retained
by Col Shafter for a saddle horse. He
was subsequently sold to man named
Houston and brought to FL Paso. He
was afterward sold TO transfer COM
pnny and used as draught horse.
Since that time Old Club has been
zfsed in livery stable, but for the last
fen months has been owned by the

OUICKNEss OF SENSATION.
Nearing with One Ear Is Said TO BE
sharper Than with Two
other Functions.

Prof. Richet says that it takes
man about one-eleventh of second
TO think out each note of musical
scale. lie explains the practice that
people will often follow of bending
their heads in order to catch minute
sounds. by the fact that the smallest
intervals of sound can be made better
distinguished with one ear than with
both. remarks the New York Evening
Journal =
Thus the separateness of the Clicks
of a revolving toothed wheel were
noted by one observer when they did
not exceed GO to the second. but using
both ears he could not distinguish
them when they occurred oftener than
is times a second.
Among the various ways in which
Prof. Richet tried TO arrive at conclu
sions as to the amount of time neces-
sary was thef touching of the skin re
peatedly with light blows from . small
hammer. Fhe fact that the blows are
separate and not continuous pressure
can be distinguished when they fol-
low one another as frequently as 1000
a second.
The sharp sound of the electric
spark from hn induction coil was dis
tinguished with one ear, when the rate
was as high jas 500 to the second.
The sight/is much less keen. When
revolving AT speed no faster than "a
times a SECOND. disk, half white and
half black. will appear gray.
We alsd hear more rapidly than we
