The collection of coins and buttons
which is being displayed in the win
dow of the Pacific Hardware Company
is quite an interesting one. The but
tons are probably more interesting than
the coins for twenty years ago, before
the Kalakaua coinage came in there
We're plenty of coins of the eighteenth
and even the seventeenth century in
circulation. That such coins should
come from the bottom of the harbor
does not argue any heightened stay at
the bottom of the harbor. The buttons.
however, are from the uniforms of the
marines of at least half a century or
more ago. When the large whaling
fleet was in port there were always
from four to half a dozen men-of-war
of various nations in port, which re-
mained here for several months until
the harbor was cleared again. The but
tons give a real consecutive historic
tale.

GREEN AND GAYNOR RUMORs.

One of the rumors afloat in Quebec,
according to the dispatches, is that
Capt. Greene and Col. Gaynor, the
fugitives from the United States Court
of this district, have strong influence
in Washington. On what foundation
does the rumor rest? Has it any foun-
dalton? 1t is very doubtful. There
are politicians in Washington probably
who would like to see the fugitives
defeat the efforts for their extradition.
but it is hardly possible that the
fugitives have influence that Is of any
help to them in the fight in which
they are now engaged.
Just at present the case, so far as
this country is concerned. is in the
hands of the Department of Justice.
1t is hardly probable that there is any
body in Washington who would dare
to approach the Attorney Generals
office with proposition that, in the
proceedings at Quebec, a loophole for
the escape of the fugitives be left. AS
far as the public is able to discover
the efforts that are being made for
their eXtradition are as vigorous and
sincere as 1t is possible for them to
be. They are to be brought back to
this country for trial if it is possible
to do so.
The case comes up again Tomorrow
before Judge Caron, on the writ of
habeas corpus. If he decides that they
must return to Montreal the chances
are they Will be turned over to the Of
ficers of the United States by the ex-
tradition commissioner who issued the
warrants on which they were arrested
in Quebec and carried to Montreal.
The impression seems to be that he
is of the opinion that the charge made
in the warrants is sufficient to Justify
their extradition. There appears to be
ground for thinking that the present
proceedings in Quebec are largely due
to feeling of jealousy between Que
bee and Montreal, The fact that the
extradition warrant was issued in Mon
treal instead of Quebec, where the
fugitives made their Headquarters. Is
construed to mean by the Quebec an
thorities that the United States Of
ticials in charge of the case believed
that justice could not be obtained In
quebec. This is resented in Quebec
and is one of the reasons why so
strong a fight is being made to prevent
the return of the fugitives to Mon
treal

THE APPEAL TO THE COUNTRY.

Both Republican and Democratic
members of Congress say that they are
! satisfied with the record which their
respective parties made during the ses-
! sion that has just closed. and that they
are prepared to appeal TO the country
for support in the congressional cleo
tons. OF course the burden is on the
Republicans to show that they did so
we'll that they ought to be continued
in control of the House They are the
majority party, and the responsibility
for all that was done and all that was
left undone rests upon them.
Unless all signs fail they will find
that there is great dissatisfaction with
the record which they made. They
have TO their credit the largest appro-
priations ever made at any session OF
Congress in time of peace. According
to Representative Livingston's figures
the appropriations amount to more
than 81, 600 900 600 and there is no doubt
that big percentage of that amount
will be wasted in one way and another.
In the last hours of the session mem
bers became very liberal and voted
away the peoples money by the hun
dreds of thousands of dollars Doubt
less Congressman think their constit-
uents do not keep track of the appro-
priations. and that before the congress
sional elections take place ii will be
forgotten whether the appropriations
were extravagant or not. If that is
their view they will find themselves
greatly mistaken
And there was a total failure to give
much needed assistance to Cuba. The
Democrats We're willing to assist them
in making provision for financial aid to
Cuba and did assist until the Repubn-
cans made the Cuban relief measure
a partisan one. The people know
where to place the blame for the fall
ure Of the Cuban relief bill They un-
derstand that the Republicans prefer
red that the Cubans should fail in their
experiment in government rather
than that the sugar trust should be in
jured
The Republicans boast that the ses-
sion was productive of three great
measures, namely the isthmian canal
BILL the irrigation bill and the Philip
pine civil government bill The Demo-
Gratis are entitled to as much credit as
the Republicans for the canal bill. BY
the time Congress gets through maxi
ing appropriations for the irrigation
scheme the Republicans will wish the
measure had been fathered by the
Democrats, it will be such a drain on
the treasury. AS for the Philippine
civil government bill, it has yet to be
shown that it is a wise measure. 1t is
worthy of notice also that some of the
most important features of the bill
were left out of it. The Republicans
decided that it would be better for their
party to give further consideration to
the parts of the bill that were dropped
out.
The Democrats, realizing that some
of the things that were left undone
were of more Importance than things
that had been done, protested against
adjournment until the Cuban relief
measure and some other important
measures had been acted upon favor
ably, but the Republicans would not
listen. They will listen, however, and
be disappointed, when the votes are
counted in November.

An effort of one of John B. Coughs
tours of the West was to arouse his
converts to a political movement in
favor of prohibition; and in several
states the politicians began to give
consideration TO the cry, says the Phil
adelphia Times. The distillers and
liquor dealers are said to have been
so frightened that they employed men
to follow the lecturer sit among the
audience, and endeavor TO confound
him with questions. He had worked
a Topeka, Kan. audience up to a fine
pitch of excitement, and, in his eff
fective manner, cried:
Temperance! temperance! Tenn
perance!! 1t will mean money in
young pocket, clothes on your back,
happiness in your home. and God in
your heart!"
ers and shouted to the audience:
Money in our pockets! Why, fell
low-citizens, follow this mans ideas
and We'll be all in the poorhouse.
Think of the fields of tasseled corn
that stretch on every side! Whisky
is made from corn. We sell millions
of dollars worth of corn to the whis-
ky makers. Stop the manufacture of
whisky. and whatH we dc?
Then turning to Cough, he went on:
You, Mr.. Smarty-whatll we do?
Tell US, if prohibition comes, whatll
we do with our corn?"
Raise more hogs, my friend" re-
piled Cough, without a seconds hest
tation-"raise more ho=s!"

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Chattanooga Times (Dem) says:
NATURALLY the Republican organs are
somewhat alarmed by the ugly condi-
ton their beet root contingent has left
things in. They do not care a rap for
the Cubans, for justice and honor; but
they do care that their majority in the
house has been imperilled, by the pow
er of one of their beggarly infant in
dustries. The leaders would readily let
justice to Cuba GO to the dogs, if they
might be sure that such course would
not endanger their hold on the coun-
try'S revenues
The Albany (New York; Argus
(Dem.) says: Many are the shortcom-
iues of the Congress now nearing it's
end, and it will be remembered chiefly
for the things it failed to do. In the
first place, it has failed to relieve
Cuba; second, il has failed to modify
and lessen the exorbitant Dingley tariff
rates; third, it has smothered all re-
ciprocity with foreign countries; fourth
it has passed no legislation for the reg
ulation of trusts: fifth, it has failed
to provide consular reform; sixth, 1t
has placed no restrictions on European
immigration. One might go through a
long list, but the above named matters
are those which aroused public expec-
tation and have caused general disap-
pointment."
The Baltimore Sun Dem.) says:
Scarcity Of farm labor is becoming a
crying evil in many parts of the South,
the negro being nc longer at hand, or
if at hand, too often inefficient The
public schools give him a distaste for
manual labor. The millions of dollars
spent yearly by the whites On negro
schools toe often demoralize the colored
youth and cause them to quit work
Many go North. The higher wages paid
in the mines attract many. Land in the
South is so cheap that an industrious
negro can lease a farm and set up for
himself. In any case he ceases to be
an employee TO be relied upon for max
ing crop. The remedy seems to be
immigration from Europe, along with
improved ideas and better bookkeep-
ing"

WALL STREET MYSTERY SOLVED

u .
Wall street was puzzled the other day
when in the published list of the stock
holders of the billion dollar steel trust
the name of Bertram Cutler appeared
as the owner of more than $12 900, 900
worth of the stock. The dividends on
this stock amount to considerably more
than 100000 a year. 1t was there
fore assumed that either there was an
unknown multi-millionaire in New
York or some other part of the coun-
try or else some one of the well-known
multi millionaires was trying to hide
his ownership of the stock.
The yellow journals Immediately set
about solving the mystery. One of
them printed one thing and another
another. One of them discovered that
Bertram Cutler was the name of
stenographer in the employ of John D.
Rockefeller. The young man lives on
Long Island, and Is about twenty-five
years of age. When asked about the
matter he was inclined at first to deny
his identity, fearing that to give any
information regarding the billion dol
lar steel trust stock which stood in
his name would not be pleasing to his
employer. Finally, however, he adj
mitted that he was the man Wall street
had been hunting for, and that it ap-
peared on the books of the corpora
ton that he was the owner of 123,975
shares of the preferred stock of the
billion dollar steel trust and over 25,-
900 shares of its common stock. He
stock and did not know who did own
it. There is not much doubt that it
is the property of Mr.. Rockefeller.
1t must have been rather aggravating
to Mr.. Rockefeller to have it appear
that he was afraid to have it known
that he was the largest stockholder
of the great steel trust-that he wanted
to hide the fact of his ownership of
the stock. AS a matter of fact it was
the understanding of the directors and
officials of the trust that the names
of the stockholders should not be made
public, but when that understanding
was arrived at there was no thought
of the suit which resulted in making
the names Of the stockholders known.
The suit in question is an injunction,
prohibiting the cancellation OF 200, 900
shares of the preferred stock and the
issuing of bonds to the amount of
$3.50, 100000. A very small percentage
of the holders of the preferred stock
sued out the injunction and the vice
chancellor of New Jersey sustained
their contention. The opinion seems
to be that the Court of Errors to which
an appeal has been taken will sustain
the vice chancellor. In that event the
great steel trust will be in the posi-
ton of having received a very decided
setback in the courts.

A good live piece of news may often
be made by accident, says the New
York Tribune. Readers of Barrie's
novel, when a Mans Single" will
recall the telegraph editor who thought
a dispatch beginning THE Zulus have
taken umbrage" referred to the cap
ture of post and gave Umbrage the
benefit of a capital. A dispatch in
The Ottawa Evening Journal" dated
"Dauphin, Man, June IS" and announc-
ing the result of the voting in the
kinistino district in the Territorial
elections, states: GAS a result of the
vote, Movers and Mott Shadd, a me-
gro, have been elected for the con-
stituency." 1t should be, of course
Meyers and not Shadd." In this case
the wideawake telegraph editor in
THE Ottawa Journal" office added:
"Shad is the first blooded negro
to be elected to a legislative body in
Canada" And he headed it up: First
Negro to Sit in a Canadian Assembly"
Mott Shadd has been Elected in the

I'm his capacity of High Priest the
Chinese Emperor has to offer at least
forty-six sacrifices to different gods in
the course of year. AS to each sac
rifice is dedicated one or more holt
days, which much be passed by him in
complete solitude, his time is pretty
well taken up. These sacrifices are
made by the Emperor either by night
or about dawn, and the houses along
taken by him, as he is car
ried in his closed palanquin through
the deserted streets of the city, are
hung with black.
One of the best beloved clergymen
in London was Father Dolling, who
died recently. His work was almost
entirely among the very poor, to whom
his constant advice was: Feed we'll,
smoke well, drink little and you will
work well and live contentedly." His
stipend was about $1,000 a year, but
the annual cost of his missions was
something like twenty times as much
and he maintained a staff of score
of co-workers. He raised all the money
by his own exertions-begging, he used
to call it bluntly-and every penny he
got he spent in his own parish.
in his baccalaureate sermon at the
University of Pennsylvania DR.. Elwood
Worcester startled his hearers by de-
claring that the morality OF college life
i Sinferior to that of the world at large.
A graduate of the university has this
comment to make: IF DIR. WorceSter'S
assertion is true, then the right of coli
leges to exist is wiped out. But people
will hesitate to accept this assertion as
fully or even partially established. 1t
may be true that many of the colleges
are not all that they should be, but
that they fall below the morals of the
business and political world is hardly
credible"
Professor George Adam Smith,
teacher OF Old Testament literature in
the United Free Presbyterian training
school for divines in Glasgow, has been
in trouble with the heresy hunters of
his denomination. In a course of lee
lures he delivered at Yale Theological
Seminary he showed that he had ac-
cepted to a considerable extent the
views regarding the inspiration of the
Old Testament, and it's value as his
tory, held by the moderate higher
critics. This aroused suspicion among
some of the Scottish clergy and laity,
and committee, after searching Pro-
fessor Smiths writings and examining
him, reported in his favor. The matter
was carried to the general assembly,
which, after lengthy elaboration, voted
--534 to .263-that the professor should
retain his chair. Few biblical writers
of the day are more winning in person
or in their books than Professor Smith.
