No mining property has achieved
greater fame as a producer of diyi-
dcnds than the famous Anaconda.
Originally bought as silver mine.
it became famous for its copper and
to it both DAILY and Clark largely owe
their vast fortunes.
In politics Mr.. DAILY was a Demo
crat. His business and political ri
valry with W. A. Clark for the past
twelve years has attracted national at
tcntion.

that June 30 1890. the percentage of
United States notes was 22.5S. Two
years earlier it was as high as 32,0I.
While the volume of United States
notes, treasury notes and silver certiti-
Gates is limited by statutory provis-
ions, the stock of gold is constantly
growing. The metallic stock of money
is estimated for October 1, 1900 at
81 ,059, ,2SS, $50 in gold, S5G6, ,355,367 in
silver dollars and bullion, and $780,
600, 74S in fractional silver coin, an ag-
gregate of Sill. .644,935.
The inflow of gold in consequence of
the material conditions, prominent
among which is favorable balance
averaging $563, 2S3, ,209 in the last three
years, will also cooperate with the
statute.

in the year preceding. The redemp
tiOns of worn material were 'O3,219,-
S24 in the later period and $255,O27,-
$50 in the earlier. The increasing de
mand for notes of small denominations
has been so heavy and so fully met by
the department, that taking into ac-
count the gold coin, only $426, ,O45,O22
of the estimated total circulation of
50. 1924 1888, October I, was in de-
nominations larger than $50.
The operations of the treasury and
its branches are conducted in increas-
ing ratio in gold, the receipts of the tis-
cal year in that coin having increased
S641 0SO,OO1. and the disbursements
$560G42,12 over 1899. There is an
increase in the circulation of standard
silver dollars in the autumn of each
year, followed by their return to the
treasury Il few month later. This ID

The Information concerning the eX-
preston "a son of sea cook" says
the Philadelphia Tunes, has not been
found in any reference dictionary. 1t
comes from a prominent citizen, man
of affairs and a man of intelligence.
In 1862 he was for period the cam
paign companion of Leonard SWEET,
who at that time was a candidate for
congress In Illinois. Mr. SWEET was
the bosom friend of Abraham Lincoln
his alter ego. In 1888 he was the ad-
vocate in Chicago of the presidential
aspirations of Walter Q. Gresham.
At the time referred to Mr.. SWEET
had an engagement to address voters
In Fremont and Pekin In Tazewell
county, and by the informant referred
to was driven from Fremont to Pekin.
SWEET had few equals as a conversa-
tionalist, and the talk was brisk and
naturally never to be forgotten by the
man who had preferred his services as
driver.
The latter. speaking Of a well known
lawyer of Pekin, remarked. He is a
son of a sea cook" Mr.. SWEET turned
abruptly about and said. THAT express
sion is not correct. You mean the son
of n sekawk. which is a peryersion Of
the Indian name segonk. which means
a skunk and is usually pronounced Sc
hawk. Few people ever use the term
correctly or comprehend its meaning"
