 The few of our citizens who were down at the depot this morning wit messed a very interesting affair. A young man by the name of Gonzales ,had fallen in love with one Juana Urillas and they had decided to become as one and yesterday telegraphed to Probate Judge Bradley for license. In some way the young lady's father learned of their intentions and in order to stop the affair, packed up his house. hold goods and with his family left on the outgoing tain. The young man was at the depot and tried severalltimes to get the girl away from her father but was unable to Go SC. The girl was will ing to go but was held by the stern pa. rent. He finally succeeded in keeping her and was holding her down in the seat when the train pulled out. The young man was nearly frantic and not to be eutdone took the extra for Fair banks where he hopes to be able to se- cure the one of his choice.. No. doubt the second chapter with the scene laid at Fairbank, will be interesting. The sympathy of those at the depot were with Gonzales and they did their best to help him out but it was no use.

ORIGIN OF AMERICANS.
Contention That Japan Was the
Original Home of the Race.
From Peoples Of the World.

From Peoples of the Word.
Probably Japan, the Kuriles and the re-
gions whereabouts must be looked upon as
the original home of the American race,
or at least the greater portion of it. In 1884
a Japanese junk was wrecked at Queen
hath to the south of Cape FIattery and
The three survivors were sent back to ia
pam They had been driven off the Island
of Yeso, and, losing their reckoning, had
drifted about for several months, during
which time the crew, which had been orig
inally forty in number, had dwindled down
to by hardship and hunger to three. Again,
on the Dist of April, 1S47, in latitude 30 de-
grees north, longitude 1856 degrees east, a
japanese junk was fallen in with which
had lost her rudder and had been driven to
sea in a gale in November, 1876. She had
on board crew. of nine men and about two
thousand pounds of beeswax and other
cargo. On another occasion an American
whaler in May, 1917, fell In with a large
Junk of two hundred tons burden, dlsman-
tied, with her rudder gone and otherwise
injured in a 'typhoon which had occurred
seven months previously. The crew, origi-
nany consisting Of seventeen persons, was
reduced to fourteen who were in a most
pitiable condition from famine, and all
SCARED from dirk and knife wounds, for
fearful scenes seemed TO have been en-
acted on board during the struggle for ex-
istence and amid the paroxysms OF hunger
and despair. The Indians have a tradition
that many years ago, long before the
whites settled among them, a vessel laden
with,wax and apparently japanese junk.
was wrecked on their coast To this day
pieces of the wax are tossed up, and at one
time the Hudson Bay Company used to
trade for 1t from the natives.
Very recently a similar case was record
ed lin the newspapers; but the above will
suffice to show that there are no obstacles
to prevent America having been originally
peopled from the Asiatc coast. The num-
Der of tribes on abe American continent is
very remarkable, and the languages are
equally multfarious, though all Of the gem
eral "aggfutinative" construction. The ia
nous Thomas jefferson, President of the
United States, was in the habit Of pointing
to this diversity of languages as a proof
of the antiquity Of the American aborigi-
nal race. 1t points, however, to nothing
more than that the native races of Amer
lea have been always at war with each
other and confined, therefore, to Isolated
communities, holding little mutual inter-
course with each other, and thus the lam
guages have got further and further sepa-
rated from each other. In giving general
sketch OF the American races, we may
throw them into great groups of a more
or less geographical character. the habits.
and In most cases the origin OF the tribes
being similar in these regions

Washington, Feb, 12.-The House will
have little or no time during the remain
ing three weeks of the session to devote
to anything except appropriation bills
Yet there are number Of measures or
great Importance which will press for con-
sideration.
Much pressure is being brought upon
the committee ON rules for another day

to which the House last week devoted two
days in committee of the whole. and This
request viii probably be aeceded 10. but
hardly during the coming week.

Budgets TO be Acted Upon.
Five of the great annual budgets still
remain Enacted upon by The House, and
as they are the most important of the APP
preparation bills 1t will require acucally
all the remainder of the session TO put
them through and consider the conference

as they are brought in This will I'M
doubtedly prove TO be the case, If the
opposition shows disposition to debate
the various propositions as they are
brought into the arena. And this seems
altogether likely. .r,9s
During The earlier part Of the session
the opposition was passive, but il seems
to have been aroused by the debate on
the army reorganization bill, and Within
the past week has become quite aggres-

FOR MEDICINAL USE

several of the best-known blends are three
tifths grain whisky and two-ffths malt"
Fhe cost of the blends of new
whisky being only about 20
cents, it seems the distliers a.
lowed their output to run far in excess
of the demand. Up to the beginning of
DECEMBER, Consul Fleming reports the
distilleries were operating al their full
capacity. Unless the fmarket for Scotch
blends opens up in Africa, and the extern
sve advertising the great companies are
doing Increases sales in the United King
dom and abroad, the effect may seriously
interefer with the sale of American corn
in Scotland. But the demand will have
TO be great il proportionate TO the over
supply. At the end of March, 1897 the
accumulated stocks IN bond reached H.
100000 gallons, and at he end of Marcn,
1893, it ran up to 100000 gallons. The
accumulated stocks in the United King
dom at this time was 13750O,O00 gallons
There had been no diminuition in the rate
of production up to December, so that
the situation does not promise to be re-
lieved. The stock in Scotland is repor ed
to be S9750000 gallons, which it will take
four years to consume, the home con-
sumption and exports being estimated at
2l,OO0,O00 gallons a year.

change, we have had a week OF irregular
movement. Upon the whole, selling has
preponderated: and the sellers have been
not only the professional operators, who
appear inclined to discount probability
of lower prices, but also the more prudent
Outsiders who show some abatement Of
their hitherto sanguine feeling. There has
been perhaps little forced selling, or realiz-
ing under stop orders' bdt simply soft
ening of the late confidence In the mainte-
nance Of the extraordinarily high range of
values; and this yielding tendency Is
drawing out quite a considerable line of
Shorts The large operators appear 10
have realized on considerable portion Of
their holdings, which Is undoubtedly an
element of weakness, as the ex-holders
may be expected 10 use more or less influ-
ence in making a lower range OF prices,
as basis of buying for a fresh rise A
transitional state Of things is, thus intro
duced the outcome of which II Is not easy
to foresee; but 1t plainly suggests the pru-
dcnce of operators following n policy of
buying and selling for quick turns only.
This rehux of securities does not appear
to be due merely TO the condition Of the
European money lnarget, nor 10 any dis
elimination against American invest
ments. The fall in prices on the New
York Stock Exchange, at the outbreak of
the war, caused large purchases OF our
stocks by London and Berlin; and the
great rise following the close of the wer
has yielded handsome profits on the opera
tons, which are now being realized. This
seems to be the whole explanation or the
movement. which has not only exhausted
the floating supply on the foreign markets
but also drawn considerable amount Of
stocks and bonds out OF the hands Of Eu-
ropean investors.
Notwithstanding that Europe has thus
liquidated nearly $70.0O0O0O of It's floating
obligations to u.s. there is probably large
amount still outstanding After balancing
all items of tho debtor and creditor nc-
counts between This and other countries.
for the year 1898, there must have been
some $l50,0O0,C0 remaining due to this coun-
try. The bohd and stock arefhittances Of
the last six weeks have but hair lidufdated
that balance; and. at that rate there
should still remain a large sum payable
