Capitalist, you wish to know what two hundred millions of dollars means? I will tell you. If taken in silver, they will cover a space of sixty acres and weigh 7,1G0 tons: it would take a freight train (twenty-ton cars) two and a half miles long, requiring twelve locomotives to move it. Placed in a line they would reach halfway around the earth. Piled up, dollar upon dollar, they would make a column 355 miles high. Put into SI bills they stretch around theglobe: piled on top of each other the bils would reach a height of twelve miles: sewed together in a crazy quilt they would cover 74G acres at per cent, interest 812,000,000 per year. 81,000 per hour, 815 every minute, is said to be a low estimate of Jay Gould's income. Old Cobweb Hall does not believe in the amassing of these colossal fortunes. Call at Ninth and Canal. "Live and Let Live" its motto.

DECLINED TO ACCEPT THE MOSAIC.
Achille Olivieri, of Venice, Italy, a manufacturer of Venetian glassware and mosaic jewel recently sent to Mrs. Cleveland a jeweled casket, made expressly for her. The gift was returned with the following courteous note:
KXWTTIVE MANSION. WASHINGTON,
December 12. IW7.
Mr. AchUW ulici/ri: DKARSIH:
Mrs. Cleveland has rc-iiuestcd mo to
acknowledge the receipt of your note of the 8th Inst., and to say that she thoroughly appreciates the courtesy of your desire that she should possess tlie mosaic jewel case which you have sent her. It Is, however, of too much value for her to think of retaining it. She prefers not to be the recipient of jjlfts from other than personal Iriends, and. without Intending to be at all ungracious, has Instructed me to return the casket. The president and Mrs. Cleveland desire me to thank you for the invitation to view your picture, now oil exhibition here, but they do not anticipate that it will be con\eulent for them to do so. Very respectfully,

THE SENATTGIN-MILI.
1 stood in the restaurant of the senate to-day when ono of the waiters came to too counter and shouted: "Two cocktails and a bottle of boor."
Then I went and examined the rules of the senate, which say: "No spirituous liquors shall be sold, kept, or furnished in the restaurant of the senate.'' There seems to bo r. misunderstanding between the restaurant and the rules.

HIGGINS WILL GO.
Higgins, it is said, is to step down. This is a triumph for the causo of political decency, but the triumph would have been more complete and conspicuous if his retirement had been compulsary instead of voluntary, as it will probably be now if it takes place before the administration itself subsides. |Indianapolis Journal.
RATHER DIE THAN BE A SOLDIER,
Oliver P. Cardwell, a deserter from the United States army, fell near the state house at Indianapolis, Tuesday, and soon died afterward from the effect of a dose of strychnine, lie believed that officers were in pursuit, and said that he preferred death rather than capture and return to the armv.
ONE MORE INCOMPETENT,
It appears that Agent Williamson, of the Crow Indian agency, resigned under compulsion. His action, therefore, can hardly bo considered an exception to the time-honored rule concerning ofliceholders.

A CONFIDENCE GAME.
A MAIN* STREET FIRM THE VICTIMS.
Yesterday morning between nine and ten o'clock the hasty pedestrianism of two young men attracted the attention of an officer who followed them from Fourth street and closely shadowed the pair until he saw them enter Owens «i Knights' exclusive merchant tailoring establishment, 5215a Main street. They had scarcely entered and closed the "door before the officer was secreted in a closet in the rear of the place where he could distinctly hear and see all that was going on. The store was well filled with customers at the time but shortly the officer beheld the two gentlemen whom he had shadowed shedding their coats to be measured for new suits. Five dollars reduction until January 1st on all suits and overcoats. No other explanation necessary.
