TUESDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1893.

"THE WABM KAYS OF PROTECTION.'* •'Money on call bus been abundant and cheap," says Dun's Review of the past week. "The most favorable bank statement that has been made for six months is that for the week ending Sept. 30," says the New York Financier. "Yet," adds the Chicago Inter-Ocean, "Llie number of unemployed does not perceptibly diminish, nor is the general condition of trade at all satisfactory^ Dun's Review reports the railway earnings for the last month as 15 per cent, below the earnings for September, 1892, aud this despite the travel to and from the exposition. The same high authority unnounoes that only seven iron mil!? have resumed operations daring the post week, against three tli.it Lmve fiihpeuded, "and," continues Dan's, lie outlook does not briplitta." Brailstreet's notes a sbrinkBg« of trade estimated at 28 per eont. hb cam pared with the corresponding pari-xl of last year. li'it Uier» is no niv»d to multiply quotations. Tlio pinching times are felt by all. It is not ''eeurcity of money." The banks are full of money. It is not a "silver scare." The silver dollar passes as freely as the gold dollar in the stores. It is scarcity of money in circulation, and the scarcity in circulation is caused by a scarcity of work, which brings money into circulation, firstly, from thebanks into the hands of the manufacturers secondly, from the hands of the manufacturers to the bauds of artisans thirdly, from the hands of artisans to those of retailers thence to the hands of wholesalers, thence back to the manufacturers, thence back to th.i banks. Tuis is a condensed history of the circulation of money.

But at present one of the urteries through which money circulates is congested. The artery of manufactures is congealed by a free-trade chill. Hestoie to it the warm rays of protection and it again will resume the function of a circulating agent, and a How of money through all the channels of trade and labor again will give health to the Nation.

I'lton.u'.LY the most original and forceful plea for silver that has been made in this exciting campaign, where so much has teen said, is advanced in the October Review of Reviews by Mr. Edward B. Howell. By means of carefully prepared churls showing the amount of silver and gold, of cereals and cotton and other staple products he aims to show that the production of silver keep9 ap proximate pace with the production of cereal crops. Furthermore, his evidence goes to show that while silver does vary about as the goods which we buy with it, gold does not keep pace with them. In other words, Mr. Howell's very interesting arguments would lead to the con viction that we should be talking of a 81.ISO gold dollar instead of a S0.60 silver dollar. While put forward in a very ooncise and unpretentious manner, the charts which the young Western political economist has prepared form a very valuable addition to the literatnre of the much vexed currency question.

"I nk President is a Democrat. The S nule is Democratic by a majority of live. The House is Democratic by a ijontv of eighty-four. The Democratic party is the responsible party in power. The first plank of the platform on which it obtained this full grant of power pledged it to repeal the Sherman act. Congress has been in session nearly two months and the "cowardly makeshift" is still unrepealed. The country has learned that the Sherman law is not at the bottom of all the troubles.

In the October Arena the editor has a timely discussion on "The Coming lteligion," in which he examines the vtrious causes which bave operated during recent years in so wonderfully broadening the religious thought of civilization. Iu the same issue Rev. W. E. Manlev, D. D., contributes a scholarly paper entitled "Aionian Punishment Not Eternal."

.Since July 1 the custom receipts have been $79,379,417, and the expenditures hive been 898,459,127, an excess of expenditures over receipts of 819,079,710. If the tariff duties are reduced the question arises how will the expend ituree be met. This is a conundrum for the tariff smashers to solve.

The increase in the national bank circulation during the month of September was 89,710,291. Since Septem l«r, 1892, it has increased 835,911,254. The total national bank circulation now iB 8208,592,172.

BUFFALOES IN ENGLAND.

Specimens of the Few Survivors Shipped Across the Atlantic.

Tli* Experiment of Breeding the Animals In Etfllih Farkt Considered by Britons as Very Likely to -.

Fro*e Unsuccessful.

Fifty, or even half that number of years ago, the possibility of the "huffier" of the American plains becoming' extinct was not so much as dreamed of, says the .St. James' Budget. For ages they had wandered in countless herds on the plains on the eastern side of the Rocky mountains, providing the red Indian with an apparently inexhaustible supply of meat. Thousands were killed for their tongues and the steak cut out of the hump—the most delicate part. The bisons, from'which the early "voyagers" and the fur traders obtained theft- "penjmican," did not suffer from the demands made upon their numbers by the Indians but the white hunter, with his everimproving firearms, did the work of destruction. Where once the herds were so numerous that it was the practice to drive them gradually to the edge of a precipice and there frighten them over, none can be found. At last the United-States government awoke to the fact that America was upon the point of losing the bison. The agents of the Smithsonian institute had a difficulty in procuring some specimens which were required. The result was tfcat 4 small herd of about fortj' Is now strictly preserved in the Yellowstone park. But one or two wander away most years and are soon killed when once outside the protected territory the security of the herd is consequen t-

Sby

no means assured. The news, erefore, that a number of Nebraska buffaloes have been imported to this country, having been obtained for the purpose of being turned down in some of our parks, will be welcomed by our naturalists.

It is,unfortunately, very questionable if the experiment of keeping and breeding the grand beasts in our English parks will be attended with any success. The bison on its native plains is accustomed to great heat in summer and extreme cold in winter. But, for all that, the climate is a constant one, and the change of the variability, the fog and the damp of this country will be great. Indeed, when we look at the condition of the bison's European relation, the aurochs, we may well doubt if the genus bison will long remain an inhabitant of the earth. It may be many years before we quite lose it, for representatives will probably linger for a comparatively long period preserved in pa ks, just as the ancient white British cattle linger now. But, as in the case of the latter, the want of fresh blood and the consequent close interbreeding- will tell in time and result in constantly diminishing fertility, until in the course of years the last representative of the race will die and the world know them no more. We ruay safely say the extinction will not happen in our own time, or even in that of the next few generations: but it is to be feared that come it surely will.

ONLY A TRAMP.

Kut There Were Tears, and Hitter Ones. Shed for llim. "It's only one of them pesky tramps, Bill." said a brakeman to his companion, as the lights from two lanterns fell on the form of a man mangled as only a railroad train can mangle. "I suppose we will have to get him into the caboose and leave him at the station."

They gathered up the remains as best they could, says the Hew York Recorder, and, after getting them aboard the train, gave the signal to go ahead.

Yes, he was only a tramp. The brakeman addressed as Bill had seen the man fall between two cars while stepping from one to another. The train had been stopped, and the two railroaders went back to see what damage had been done. In the caboose they made a search of the dead man's clothes. They didn't find much no money, not even a knife. In the inside pocket of the ragged vest was a greasy-looking envelope. In taking out the letter a tiny band of gold fell to the floor. While oue picked up the ring the other read the letter. It had been well fingered, and there were unmistakable spots that only tears could have cauBed. The handwriting was a woman's, aud read as follows: "Dear Jim: Mary is dead, and in her last words she inquired for papa. She missed you so much, aud never seemed to be well after you went. I am sorry, Jim, for what I said that night, and if you will come back I will never complain and worry you any more. I send you Mary's ring you remember when you got it for her. Please come back to your wife."

That was all. The wife had heard in some way where her husband was and had sent him the letter. It occurred to one of the brakeinen to look at the postmark, and with difficulty it was seen that it was a month old, and that it was that of the very place at which they had decided to leave the dead body.

Jim must have met Trlth misfortune and was stealing his way home, which he reached only to be carried out and laid beside little Mary.

An Old Kii(l]ih Custom.

The candidates for bailiff in the town of Alnwick, North England, just before the election ride in procession to a horse pond near the town, dismount and struggle through the mud and water as best they can. They are accompanied by a brass band and all the population of the town and neighborhood. The custom dates from the time of King John, who visited the town in 1210. The roads were very bad and some of his baggage wagons had to be left in the mire. On his arrival he inquired who was responsible for the condition of the roads, and learning that the bailiffs were to blame ordered them to be seized and dragged through the nearest pond.

Nervous Dyapepsta.

Senator Jaincs Pierce, ot New York, writes: "For the past two years I have suffered very much from an aggravated form of nervous dyspepsia. I have resorted to various remedial agents, deriving but littlr. beneilt. A few months since a friend of mine suggested the trial of Allcock's Porous Piasters. Following the suggestion, I have been using the same with the happiesi efleets.

A LOCOMOTIVE EXPERIENCE.

How a Up

Rejected Flyer Turned 1'rU* Machine.

Strange things happen when men make up their minds that they can't help happening.

It is now over twenty years, says a writer in the Locomotive Engineering, since Superintendent Healy, of tho Rhode Island locomotive works, built a passenger engine for the Old Colony. This engine had seventeen and onehalf by twenty-two inch cylinders, with a five-foot wheel, and the only innovation on the standard engines of the day was the trial of two and onequerter inch tubes instead of two inch, there being about one hundred and sixty of them. Before the engine ever made a turn the general superintendent heard of the big Hues and openly announced that the engine would never make the time with the Fall River boat train for which it was built. The master mechanic admitted that he didn't believe it would ever steam, and one by one the engineers shook their heads ar.d allowed that it couldn't make it—because it couldn't. Then the firemen announced that no man could keep it hot, and no one ought to expect that it could be done. The engine was doubted from the start. Everybody said it couldn't make the run—and it didn't. It went on the road and was a failure from the start, and after eighteen months' service it was rebuilt. The general superintendent paid the Rhode Island locomotiva works 81,000 extra for a new boiler (returning the old one) like the old one except that it had two-inch tubes.

He said he knew that the new boiler would steam and the engine make the time. The master mechanic said he knew 6o, too, and the engineers and firemen agreed with them that now it was all right.

It was all right, steamed well and made the time—because everybody said it could and would.

Some months afterward John Thompson, general mastar mechanic of the Eastern railway, wanted a seventeeninch passenger engine, and wanted It as cheap as possible. lie was induced to take the boiler discarded by the Old Colony (after being thoroughly repaired). None of the engineers knew the engine had an old boiler or flues larger than the ordinary. Mr. Thompson said she was a fine engine and would just play with their fastest and heaviest express. The men all counted on her as a good steamer, and a good steamer she was. This engine never lacked for steam, did her work well and as economically as the best engine -on the road, and iB in the service yet— running in sight of the scene of her former failure.

Deaf liens Cannot be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure Dcafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition ot the mu cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it? uorinal condi unn, hearing will be destroyed forever nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, wlrch is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

We will give Ono Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) thjit cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Semi for circulars, tree.
