City Finances.

II reckon few men possess the cheek
that the chairman Of the democratic
county committee possesses in ranting
about the city administration and the
misuse Of funds. Why, II You will re-
member. the taxes were raised for the
simple reason that the city had not
provided for a sinking fund, as the
then democratic mayor had been urged
to do, and about the first thing his
republican had to confront
was some means of paying the debt
honestly contracted, and which the law
says shall be paid from sinking fund.
George Phillips, as good a democrat
as there is in the city, was a member
Of the council, and II I mistake not,
1t was he who proposed more levy t.
meet the expenses of the city. The
democratic mayor left some bills to be
paid by the new administration and
they were paid. There was the cleo
ton expense bill, for instance, which
had come over from former years and
which the council had to contend with.
There was the assessment bill, and
scores Of others that were just AID
reasonable. but they had not been pro.
vided FOR. One would think wouldn'i

On q Nav Footing.

Mr.. Absalom Eoote, an eccentric Old

smaller town, free from the roar of
traffic, the hustle and confusion Of the
thronging multitude, where he could
end his days TRANQUILITY, as became a
man Of his age. In casting about for
a location, his eye CHANGED to light
upon the advertisement in a village

A Psychic Phenomenon.

An extraordinary incident is connect
ed with Professor Won Herkomer's ia
nous painting, 1.-THE Last Muster"
which was the picture of its year at
the academy.
One morning soon after the exhibit
ton was opened the artist was aston
ished to receive a letter from a lady, a
perfect stranger, who said she was
not aware until she saw THE Last
Muster" at the academy on the previ
Gus day that her mother, then dead,
had ever sat to the professor for her
portrait.
Now, the figure In the picture was
painted solely from imagination, and
the artist FASTENED to explain this fact
to his correspondent. She %thereupon
asked for an appointment and took an
oil painting of her mother, asserting
that it was a faithful representation Of
that lady.
The academician was astonished to
perceive that he had really portrayed
Oh his own canva a facsimile Of the
figure In this other painting. although
1t was that of a m whom he had
never seen in his life.-London NJ. A. Z.

sbipwrecks and Courts Martial.

The custom of holding courts martial
In the British navy after every case of
shipwreck has a curious origin. In
1141 the Wager, one of Commodore
Anson's vessels, was wrecked off the
coast of Chile, most of he crew being
saved. The men and some of the jun
Tor officers held that they were no
longer amenable to discipline because
their pay ceased with the wreck, but
the captain, whose name was Davy
Cheap, differed, treated them as mutt
neers and shot one of his midshipmen.
He was then deposed, and most Of the
crew made off in three of the boats.
Later when it was proposed to proceed
against the so called mutineers the aw
officers of the crown decided that the
men had been correct In their view.
This discovery led to the framing Of
section Of of the articles of war, which
provides that In the case of shfpwreck.
destruction or capture by the enemy a
ship Is held to remain In commission

Bryan and the Soldiers Pension.

Bryan and the Soldiers Pension.
In the course of a speech at Sioux
Falls, S. D., Oct. 8, 1896, before a
gathering which included many old
soldiers, William Jennings Bryan said:
~ appreciate the attendance Of the
battle SCARED vstsrans Of this eoun-
try, and ! assure thsmsthat their inter
sstss the interests Of tho old soldier,
will be safe in the hands Of those who
believe that this nation 10 great enough
to attend to its own business. The
soldier will not find it necessary to put
hls interests in tho hands Of those who
believe that we must receive the con-
sent Of foreign nations before we can
act ourselves on tho financial policy"
Mr.. Bryan did not catch the old sol
diers with that unctuous plea. They
knew that he was then, as he is now,
pledged to a policy which, If adopted,
would destroy half the purchasing
power of every veteran soldiers pen
sion. They knew that his success

become a dishonest dollar and that the
first act of q dishonest dollar Is to
cheat the poor man. The year follow
ing Mr.. Bryan's first defeat the gov
eminent paid out $139, $40, 1T in sol
diers' pensions. Had the free silver
conspiracy won the power Of that vast
sum in purchasing the comforts Of
life would have been reduced at least
80 per cent. The old soldiers knew It
and voted accordingly.
In its pension policy the Republican
party presents convincing proof Of ita
consideration for the welfare and com
fort Of the nations defenders. Since
the civil war the government has paid

Washington, D. c. Oct. 29-What
starts these forest fires? This ques-
ton has been asked over and over
again this summer by readers of the
accounts Of the destructive fires which
have been raging in all parts of the
country.
Result Of C~areIessness.
Campers and locomotives, ts the
usual answer. Many of the other
things which start blazes IN the forests
are forgotten. 1t Is true that perhaps
one-half to three-quarters OF the for
est fires do begin as a result of the
carelessne,s of some camper, or from
sparks flying from locomotives, but
there are a number of things which
set the woods afire.
Records Not Kept.
A complete report of forest fires on
the private forests of the country and
their auscs is not kept by anyone
Uncle Sam. however, is most careful
to account for the damage done by the
blazes on his timberland under forest
administration, aggregating about
168, 900, 900 acres, and each year the
total area burned over, the cumberland
burned over, the amount of timber de
stroyed and its value, the cost of fight
ing fires, and the causes of fires are
carefully checked up. These reports
are made at the end Of the calendar
year, and the announcement of this
years losses will therefore not be
known for more than two months.
Many from Campers Fires.
Last years figures, however, give u
good idea of the things which cause
fires in forests. OF the 1855 fires dis
covered on the national forests last
year, all Of which were checked By
the & before they had burnel
over fourteen hundredths of n per
cent Q4-100 of / per cent? of the ma
tiqnal forest area, campers caused 346,
while railroads followed next with
| 278; lightning came next, with IT'S;
donkey engines used in numbering
| operations, fourth, with 65; careless
brush burning by homesteaders clean
ing land, "a; fires caused by iicen-
diaries and those set by herders and
hunters, 80.
Many from Unknown Cause.
For more than 400 of the fires the
cause is not known. This Is not
strange when it is remembered that a
fire may smolder for days, if the air is
too thick to permit the smoke to be
seen at a distance before it breaks out
when famed by a wind so as to revea!
its presence to the watchful forest OF
icer.
Railroads Close Second.
While campers caused more fires
than locomotives last year, there are
many seasons when the railroads hold
undisputed claim to first place. For
est fires started by both are mostly I'M
necessary. If campers exercise care
in starting camp fires and be sure that
they are extinguished before they arc
left, and If the railroad companies
would use the most modern and eff.
| Client spark arresters, it is reasonable
to think that the annual forest fire loss
| could be reduced more than one-half

causes OF fires, and Of course. man has
