THE HONEY QUESTION
The money question, now being so earnestly discussed by all parties, is going to give Mr. Cleveland's administration a great deal of trouble. Both the Democratic and Republican platforms of 1892, virtually committed the two great National parties to the doctrine of free coinage upon two conditions. 1: That all other leading nations should agree to it. 2: That there should be a new ratio of value established between the gold and silver dollar, so as to make them of equal value. But the Populist party is for free coinage without either of these conditions, and Mr. Cleveland will be under the necessity of invoking aid from Populist Senators for the harmonions running of his administration. It is now evident that the present silver law will not be repealed without something as a substitute for it. To repeal it and fall back on the law of 1873, which demonitized silver entirely, is not to be thought of, notwithstanding this is a consummation which a large class of what are called monied men, are hoping for. But little more than a year ago the U. S. Senate mustered a major ity for free coinage without conditions of tiny kind, and it is doubtful whether free coinage without conditions is not 86 popnlur to-d.iv as it was a year ago Tha late vote in the Senate and House on a proposiiicn looking to the unconlionnl repeal of the Sherman law of '6t session, shows that neither house o" Congress is yet ready for a repeal of that law, unless something more satisfactory to the free silverites is proposed to take its place. Will the new Con gress which comes in on the 4th of
March nest, be less favorable to free silver than the preEent Congress? This is more than doubtful. The Democratic party will not dare bring about an open rupture between Mr. Cleveland and the Populist leaders and just what is going to be tho outcome of the novel situation is hard to predict. It is evi dent, however, that the entireSoath and West have a strong leaning toward free coinage, and that these portions of the country contain a large majority of the voters and nothing short of a practical demonstration of the folly of free coinage will change the public sentiment of tlieBe sections on this subject. But, in a few days more, Mr. Cleveland and the
Democratic party will likely have full control of the subject, Bnd all that can be done'is to wait and see how they solve the problem.
IT IS a curious fact that tbe Democratic party succeeded in electing Mr. Cleveland to the Presidency on the belief that the party would ignore the 'promises mado in its platform. The main agreement by which votes were sought for Cleveland was "you know a
Democratic Congress will never vote for free trade, nor to repeal the tax on State bank issues. And had it not been believed that the promisee in the platform as to these two matters were to be ignored in practice Mr. Cleveland could never have been elected President.

The difficulty of overexposure may be overcome by realizing the meaning of the sensitometer number on the platebox, and being governed by it, and by remembering that the nearer the lens is to the subject llie longer the exposure necessary, and the larger the stop the shorter tho time required.

A thrilling fight between a blacksnake and a rattlesnake was witnessed on the Cummlnffs orange grove by a party of gentlemen from Daytona, says the Florida Times-Union. For several weeks past a blacksnake about ten feet long has made its headquarters under an old crib on the grove, appearing occasionally, but never allowing himself to be billed. Ho was as large around as one's wrist and as fierco a looking fellow as one would wantto encounter. The gentlemen were seated under a large palmetto tree enjoying the pleasant afternoon when they noticed a rattlesnake creep slowly and cautiously out from a brush heap and coil himself with head in the air fend eyes turned toward the party as if to say: "Here 1 am." One gentleman seized a club, but the others persuaded him to delay his attack and watch the reptile for awhile and see what It would do. They had a chance to size up the stranger, who was about six feet long and of a grayish striped color. In a few minutes the blacksnake was seen to appear from under the crib fifty feet distant and move slowly toward the rattlesnake.
Now for a fight," said Mr Bert Walker, and the party drew back to give the reptiles a full show. Noiselessly came the big black fellow, carrying his head high In the air and oteasionally dropping It, apparently studying the ground around which he was to make tho attack. It was plainly evident that the blacksnako wanted to fight. When within twenty feet of the other creature he stopped, raised his head and the rattlesnake saw him for the first time. The ground between them was clear, not a stick or a stone being noticed for many yards.
The rattlesnake raised his head and threw out his tongue and seemed to be prepared for an encounter. They really reminded one of a couple of desperate men just entering the arena for a fight to the dfeath. Presently the black champion started on a circle around his prey, getting nearer to the rattler every minute. The rattler never took his eye from his approaching enemy and his head going round reminded the looker-on of the movements of a corkscrew. When within six feet of the rattler the black fellow flew around so fast that you could hardly tell what it was. It was like taking a a string tied to a stick and twirling it with all one's might. Suddenly the two came together and immediately became entwined abouteach other, rolling over and over in the dust. This lasted fully five minutes. Then there was a lull and the blacksnake was seen to have his adversary by the throat with his mouth. His body was twisted about the rattler's body, and every few seconds he would give a squeeze that sent the rattler so much further toward his end.
In ten minutes the black hero dropped the body of his victim, blew himself up, took one last look and then wound off into the brush.
It was a rare and remarkable scene and thoroughly enjoyed by all the party. One of the gentlemen raised up the dead rattler on a stick and found that he was terribly gashed and mangled. Like the boa-constrictor, the blacksnake does not bite but crushes out the life of its victim.
