If he could not succeed he -was glad to ste his young friend succeed. He was the more ronciled to the re5ult. he said, for last night fce had discovered there wa another tie between hU own and. the family cf his puccessfu! competitor. He paid wntn Dr. A. 11. Landis. father of the nominee, was surgeon of the Thirty-fifth Ohio he had been 'phot down at Kencsaw Mountain and his tGraham's) own brotuer. Dr. William 1$. Graham. t;en surgeon of the One-hundred-and-first Indiana, now present in thia convention, had been the first to reach Dr. Landls's side. His brother had carried the wounded man away in his arms, dressed hlj wound and saved his life. He was sure that should the opportunity ever offer, the victor of to-day would discharge th debt to his brother's children. The motion to make the nomination unanimous was earned with a hurrah. In response to loud calls Dr. Tucker appeared and said it gave him great pleasure to asslt In making it unanimous. He had "made the best flgnt he knew how; he had been defeated and he accepted the situation, and he and the ot.ier boys in blue would march under the banker nf the young leader. Dr. Tucker vouched for it that the old soldiers would not lay down their arms until Jndis was in Congress and McKlnley .in the White House, and they would roll up such a majority as would make Democracy ani treason forever ashamed of themselves. Captain Harrison pledged tae support of Jloona county to the nominee and promised that there would be present at tha Democratic funeral next November the largest Republican majority the country had ever ieen. It was an exceedingly cordial and enthusiastic reception that the nominee, of the convention received as he appeared In response to loud calls for 'Xandis." He spoke as follows: - "I should Judge that this 13 a Republican convention. Cheers and shout and Joyous expectancy are not characteristic of Democracy this year. (Applause.) Cheers and bouts are out of place at wakes and funeralsand this year at Democratic conventions. (Laughter.) Your chairman has announced that I have been nominated by the convention for Congress. For this- distinguished honor and for the generous words of the gentlemen who have just spoken I am profoundly grateful. I trust that no act of mine, either In the campaign or as a member of the Fifty-flfth Congress, to which you have given me a certificate (cheers), will ever cause you to regret the action you have this day taken. (Applause.) It is appropriate that this convention should be held in Crawfordsvllle. Within a few feet of where we are now assembled lived and died that Rifted and eloquent Indianlan. who did so much to dignify and glorify thU State and Nation. To him mere than to any other man belonged the priceless credit of having hrought about the nomination of Abraham Lincoln In 1S0O. (Loud applause.) What a flood of memory and history rush in upon us at the mention of the nama of Henry S. Iantp. (Applause.) Lane and Morton Oliver P. Morton! (Cheers and applause.) No citizen of this State ever blushej when those men sat in the United States Senate a.nd voted and rpoke for Indiana. This is the home of fJen. Lew Wallace and the seat of VijAh College. You will pardon me if I

ry that four of the happiest years of my uto were spent within the walls of the insti tution that stands over yonder amorg the native forest trees. It has been raid, .and truly, too. that college professors are nearly all free traders. Thi l. true. Cultured essayists are the most effective advocates of the free-trade fallacy. Theoretically free trade Is as beautiful and symmetrical as a rose. KeJuced to practice here in America It becomes as ugly and unsymmetrlcal as the stem and thorns that remain after the rose is gone. DR. TCTTLE'S LESSOX. . "I recall the words of Dr. Tuttle, who presided over the destinies of Wabash College when I was a student there. We had finlihed the study of political economy, and the lesson had been a review of the arguments in favor of free trade and against protection. He said he would not attempt to prejudice our minds one way or the other, but he wanted to close the study by relating a circumstance that came under his own observation. The good man then told us that in 1M0 he lived in a small city in an Eastern State. He saw manufacturing' establishments spring up and prosper under the fostering care of the high tariff of 1840. There was a demand for labor, wages were high, there was a market for the produce of the farm, and everybody was happy and prosperous. Then came the free-trade tariff of 1S4K. It seemed

V"-as U a blteat had fallen upon the little city.

driven into bankruptcy. Hundreds of laborers were thrown cut of employment. The farmers' market was destroyed, and idle men anxious to work stood in the doors of their cheerless homes holding the hands of their hungry children, and watched English ships unload English iron at the wharf, and saw it carted past the tenantless factories over the mountains to the West. That good man told us that he would not say whether he was a protectionist or a free trader, but he would Fay that he knew that protection built those factories and gave those laborers employment. He knew, too. that free trade closed Chose factories, bankrupted the men who owned them and beggared the men who worked in them. X walked out of that class room a protectionist, and I stand before you to-day stronger In the faith than ever before. (Loud cheers.) ' "Our battle cry In this campaign must be Protection, protection to American industries, protection to American labor, protection to the American home!' (Loud applause.) The Republican party will soon come into possession of all the departments of this government. (Applause.) And when it does you will see the gold commence to come back from across the sea and circulate with our silver and paper, every dollar equal to every other dollar, in a commerce and trade as active, as buoyant "and as hopeful a3 ambitious youth." (Cheers.) The convention adjourned at noon, having keen In session an hour and a half. It waa a Kood-natured and highly enthusiastic convention. There are no sore spots left and the successful candidate . will receive the hearty support of his late competitors. Charles K. Landis is a native of Butler county, Ohio, but became a Hoosier by adoption twenty years ago. He is the editor and one of the proprietors of the Delphi Journal, lie has been president of the State Republican Editorial Association and is a member of the board of trustees of Wabash College, of which he Is a graduate. Two years ago he was nominated to Congress in the old Ifiilll U1S1I1LL. 1IL1L I1UIU WlfLL 1(111 H 1 II I . tended by a split In the convention, and to restore harmony he withdrew from the race. His renunciation of his own ambition and interest at that time for the good of the party fsrobably had something to do with commendng him to the favor of to-day's convention. Many Republicans of State prominence, some of them candidates for State offices, were In attendance at to-day's convention. Among the candidates for Governor were John Li. Griffiths, of Indianapolis; Charles L. OrifTm, of Hammond; James A. Mount, of Shannon dale: James T. Johnston, of Parke county, and Warren G. Sayre. of Wabash: for Luietenant Governor. W. S.

TUB DEPIOCItATS SHY. Hone Wants to II un for Offlce in Madison County Thin Year. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. ANDERSON, Ind., April 7. The Itepubllcans of Andeison are having: a good laugh at the expense of the Democrats, who, up to this time, have not had a single person brave enough to announce himself as a candidate for any elective office In the county. The Democrats havo been put In the hole by both Judge XV. S. Diven, of the Superior Court, and Judge Alfred Ellison, of the Circuit Court, each of whom have written letters to the Democrat of this city, the party organ, positively declining to allow their names to be presented to the convention for renomlnatlon this year. The fact is. both men see the handwriting on the wall" and neither proposes to lead a forlorn hope. The Republican county convention will be held in this city Thursday morning in Tisher's Hall, and the ticket named that day will be elected by an lncreased Republican majority. Editor E. E. Fomsheil. of the Elwood Call-leader, has announced himself as a candidate for Representative, and a pretty contest is exrected between Hundley, of Summitvllle. lardy, of Pendleton, and Fornshcll, of Klwood. for that position.

The Democrats of the Twelfth district nominated James M. Robinson for Congress by acclamation this afternoon. No resolutions were adopred. II. L'. Johnson First Nomination. To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: I noticed recently, during the JohnsonWatson fight in Henry county, that a Journal correspondent stated that In the convention which nominated- Johnson for his first term James E. Watson was the chalrrain of the Randolph county delegation, and in that capacity cast the solid vote of the delegtalon each ballot for Johnson. This is an error. James E. Watson was not a delegate. He was an alternate, but did not act with the delegation at all. Hon. James S. Engle was chairman of the delegation, and an Individual ?oil of the delegation was mace on each baiot, and at no time was the vote cast solidly for Johnson. The convention was held at New Castle, April VZ, 18J0. There were four candidates, and It took twelve ballots to nominate. The vo:e of Randolph county was as follows: Cul- Greg- Fork- Johnlen. ory. ner. eon.

Watson was elected as one of the six vice presidents, and sat with the other five behind Perry Heath, who was the presiding officer. XVatson was not heard from at any stage of the proceedings. XV. S. LT.NSIQN. Union City, Ind., April 7. Only Four Against McKlnley. To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: In to-day's Journal I notice a special from Uils city, stating that "In the last two weeks the enthusiasm for McKlnley among Republicans has weakened. Harrison seems to be the favorite, and the feeling Is here that the thirty votes from Indiana should be cast for him from the start." There is no truth In the above statement whatever. On the contrary, the enthusiasm for McKlnley grows stronger every day, and the writer of the special and three other Republicans are all that I know of in Jay county, and 1 have taken some trouble to ttnd out, that are opposed to McKlnley. I think I can say with truth that at least 99 per cent, of the Republicans of Jay county favor "McKlnley as their first choice for President. Gen eral Harrison has no better friends anywhere than ithe Republicans of Jay counry. but they have accepted his letter of declination as final, because they do not believe that he Is a man to say one thing and mwn another.

While proceeding to sea to-night the steamship Bellarden, bound for South American ports, came into collision, near Quarantine, with the Red Star line steamship Frlesland, and! was so badly injured that she was beached at Staten island to prevent sinking. No one on board either vessel was Injured. The Frlesland proceeded to ner docK apparently omy silently damaged. The Bellarden, which was heavily laden with freight, commenced to fill as soon as she was struck, and when she was beached had fourteen feet of water in her ho!d. Both the Bellarden's captain and pilot blamed the Friesiand for the collision, saying that had the Friesiand maintained steerage way enouph to control the ship the accident would not have occurred. After Bellarden . was beached powerful fmmps began to free the hold of water, and t Is expected she will be entirely free from water at low tide. The work of repairing the rent will be commenced in the morning, at which time the lightering of the cargo will bo begun. Movement of Steamer. NEW YORK.

He was to havo taken his seat on the bench for the first time yesterday, and great preparations had been made by the Sussex county bar to celebrate the advent of the new judge.

They Adopt a Platform Favoring Protection and Bimetallism. SALT LAKE, Utah, April 7.-The Republican State convention to-day elected Frank J. Cannon, Arthur Brown, C. E. Allen, Isaao Trumbo, W. R. McCormlcls and Thomas Kcarns as delegates to the St. Louis convention. .The platform Is confined almost entirely to protection and bimetallism and the sense of the convention is expressed in the following language: "We believo In a protective tariff; we believe in reciprocity; we believe In bimetallism, which is the full recognition alive of gold and silver and their free coinage In the mlnta of the Nation at the ratio of 16 to 1. "We contemplate with sorrow and shame the spectacle which our country presents today because of the attempt to substitute for a protective tariff a tariff for revenue, and because of tho destruction of suver as money of final redemption. . "We hold that a policy which has filled the land with idle men, which takes from labor its honest reward, which doubles the burden of det, which, amid bountiful harvests. In a time of profound peace, makes necessary the issuing of hundreds of millions of dollars' worth of interest-bearing bonds In order to meet tho current expenses of the government is an impeachment of both the honor and integrity of those who control our government. "We hold that as a tariff for revenue has failed to restors prosperity, s a protective tariff, as long as the money of the country Is held, ounce for ounce, 100 per cent, higher-than the money of the Orient and of Spanish-America. 1s impotent to save cur farmers and manufacturers against a competition which they are -helpless to moot, and we repudiate the belief that protection without bimetallism can restore prosperity. The situation makes clear that bimetallism end protection mu?t be accepted as constituting the vital Indivisible principle that not only the progress buo the safety of the industries of our country and the toilers who carry on those indjstries, make the acceptance of this principle imperative protection by a tariff to equalize the wages of our country and those pail abroad. ind bimetallism to equalize the money of this country and that of silver standard nations. "Wo cordially indorse the .tand taken in' the national legislature by Western Senators and Representatives in behalf of folding bimetallism together as one. "We ask cur delegates to St. Louis to do their utmost to secure in the national Republican platform a full acknowledgment of the Imperative need of a return to real bimetallism and a promise of its swift adoption without regard to other nations, bv opening our mints to the free coinage of gold and silver at a ratio of U to 1. ALL FOR. M'KEVLCr. Delegates Chosen by Webster Faction of South Carolina Republicans. COLUMBIA. S. C. April 7. Tht Webster faction of the Republican party held a State convention hero to-day. All of the delegates were negroes, except fifteen white men. who

have been knovrn In Republican politics In this State . ever aince the war. The convention was overwhelmingly for McKlnley, and the four delegates at large were instructed to vote for him first, last rnd all the time. The delegates are: Robert Emails and W. D. Crum, colored; T. B. Johnston and E. A. Webster, white. A resolution indorsing McKlnley met with a little opposition, delegate Small3 being instructed for McKlnley. He said he favored Allison, but If he could not be elected he wanted to vote for the best man. though he had no objections to McKlnley. The McKlnley resolutions were adopted, however, by a large viva voce vote. The platform says as to finance: "We stand with our party In the restoration of its dsmand for 'both gold and silver as standard money.' Wo believe that legislation should secure and maintain the parity of values of the two metals to the end that the purchasing and debt paying power of the American dollar, silver, gold and paper, shall be the same any and everywhere. We believe that bimetallism alone can secure the result." It further calls upon people to uphold the provisions of the Constitution against lynching, and demands that every citizen be allowed to vote and have his vote counted, be he white or black. A resolution was also passed calling for a State convention early to nominate a ticket for State officers. ROW IX ALABAMA.

Republicans Split and Dolt and Elect Three Del earn t tons. GADSDEN, Ala,, April 7. The Republicans of the Seventh congressional district held their convention to-day for selection of delegates to St. Louis. The McKlnley men claimed to have a majority of tho regular delegates, but the Reed men took possession of the courthouse, where the convention was to be held, and locked the doors, leaving- a number of McKlnley men outside and refusing to admit them. Pistols were drawn when tho locked-out McKlnley men endeavored to enter, and It looked like bloodshed for a time. Then the McKlnley delegates all withdrew, and, going to Hotel Prlntup, held a separate convention, selecting C. D. Alexander and George Curtis, two stronsr McKlnley men, as delegates to SL Louis. The Reed and McKlnley combination convention chose F. L. Mararue and J. E. Ezzell as delegates to the national convention. They are for. Reed, under the leadership of -Biir Stevens, colored, v The negroes in the regular convention also bolted and selected a negro delegation to St. Louis. The reason for their bolt, it is said, was because they were not accorded representation on the delegation. Nothing like -the ecenea enacted about tho courthouse at Gadsden to-day were ever before witnessed at a political gathering In Alabama. A riot was narrowly averted. DOUBLE-LEADED BOOM. The Verv York World Gives Cleveland a Boost Toward Renomlnatlon. NEW YORK, April 7. The World will print a double-leaded editorial to-morrow, In which it will ask whether the logic of the political situation that has led the Republican masses to support McKlnley will not compel the nomination of Cleveland by the Democrats. Tho paper says: "The World does not assert that this Is so. It raises the question. It invites public discussion of It. So far as the World Is concerned In this matter It is impartial, judicial and Impersonal. It has no special partiality for Mr. Cleveland personally, as he will probably admit. It has nothing to take back. But the question is not of the past. It is a question of the future. Upon the Issues of the present and future, not of the past, the World la just as free and. sincere in suggesting that Mr. Cleveland seems to be the only logical candidate, as it has been fearless and faithful in admonition and criticism whenever it has believed him to be wrong. It is idle and might prove very unwise to ignore the fact that there is a deep seated and widely prevalent prejudice among our people against any third term for any President. Rut It Is still a question whether any unfounded fear and prejudice can weigh at last against the forco of events and the logic of circumstances." The SmlUi-Crlsp Joint Debate. NEWNAN, Ga., April 7. The third of the Joint financial discussions between Secretary Smith and ex-Speaker Crisp was listened to here to-day by an audience of about four thousand people, chiefly farmers from the surrounding country, with a sprinkling of women. This is Governor Atkinson's home and the Governor, who was present, introduced the speakers. Mr. Crisp and Secretary Smith Journeyed hither from Atlanta together yesterday and last night they were tendered a banquet at the Virginia House, the leading hotel of the place. They are both suffering from throat troubles and have been forbidden by the specialist who Is treating them from speaking on successive days. In consequence, the debate set for to-morrow has been declared off and the two financial champions will meet next in Albany on Friday. Democratic Split at St. Paal. ST. PAUL, Minn., April 7. The Democratic city convention called for to-day to nominate a full city ticket was rather more exciting than anticipated. Two warring factions were present, and after a short but decidedly lively Introductory session they concluded to do business apart, and the result may be two Democratic tickets. The faction thut remained in control of the Market Hall, where the convention had been called to . meet, placed In nomination a full ticket headed by Wr. 11. 8. Wright for Mayor, but Mr. Wright later announced that he would under no circumstances accept the nomination. The delegates who left the Market Hall met later in the day, and after effecting their organization adjourned until next Monday, when they will probably act on the nomination of a full city ticket. Bradley- Loses at LouIstIHc. LOUISVILLE, Ky.. April 7. It develops to-day that McKlnley easily received a majority of the delegates chosen in yesterday's city and county Republican primary. The McKlnley men claim 123 delegates to seventy-two for Bradley, and the Bradley men, while not conceding these figures, admit McKlnley's majority. The Republican convention for the First congressional district to-day elected J. H. Tapley and W. H. Yandel delegates to the St. Louis convention and Instructed them for Bradley. McKlnley Indorsed In Tennessee. NASHVILLE, Tean.. April 7.

Allen to-day addressed a letter to Governor Holcomb, declining to be a candidate on the Populist ticket for presidential honors.

NINGER'S BANK-NOTES

HOW TIIB JERSBYMAX MADE HIS PEX-AXD-IXK COUNTERFEITS. First Traced "With a. Pencil, Then Inked Over vrlth Pen and BrushWork That Deceived Experts. New York Sun. The more that Is learned about Emanuel NInger, the New Jersey pen-and-ink counterfeiter, the less wonderful seems his work end the more remarkable seems the man.- The Sun Is enabled to tell exactly how the counterfeiter did his work.and many other facts about him that have not been published heretofore. When Secret Service Agent Bagg, declines to make any statement regarding, the processes of the counterfeiter or any' statement whatever regarding the man, .except that he has incontrovertlole proof tint Ninger is the maker of the counterfeit notes, and that they were made with pen, ink and brush, without the aid of plates or camera, the Sun's description of how they are made may be trusted absolutely, as can also the statements concerning the counterfeiter. The information comes from the highest source. When Ninger started out from Flagtown, N. J., the other day, according to the Sun's information, he had in his possession six $20 notes and one 0 note, which, together, were the product of about fifteen weeks' work. This was on Saturday, a week ago. He passed Ave of the twenties without any difficulty. On of them was to good that it was accepted by a bank when offered for deposit by the man who had taken It from NIcger. It was the sixth $20 note that got him Into difficulty quite accidentally. He offered this note at a Third-avenue grocery. The clerk accepted it without question. He gave it to tho cashier, a young woman. Her hand was damp and In handling the note she touched the series number with a damp finger. She noticed a blur, and Immediately wet her finger on a sponge and rubbed it across the number. The blur was distinct. Ninger was golnt out of the store with his change at the time, and the cashlerf who was quick-witted, sent a clerk to watch him. The clerk folII owed him down town .and into a saloon at No. 87 Cortlandt street. Ninger purchased a drink and tendered a $50 note In payment. The bartender whistled at the size of it, but never suspected its genuineness, and he got the change and handed it over. Ninger had succeeded, it is alleged, in getting rid of his notes, and he started for the ferry. It was then that the clerk caused his arrest. He was soon in the hands of the United States ofllcers. No United States officials have admitted or asserted that Ninger has confessed, but ev ery one of them seems to possess information which he hardly could possess unless it came from the prisoner. It is known that tho man's wife and children were Ignorant of the matter. Tho Sun's information is that he did his work In his house, but without their knowledge. It was this secretlveness that enabled him so long to evade capture. Nobody knew of his work except himself. He had no confederates. He never tried to dispose of his work outside New York city, and here nobody knew him. He passed all hia own money. HOW THE NOTES WERE MADE. Ninger is modest and unassuming In appearance. He has a florid complexion, a closely cropped sandy beard, and a mild blue eye that seems the mirror of innocence. He dressed as a farmer dresses, and he looked the farmer from head to foot. He would be more likely to be picked up by a bunco steerer as a come-on than by the secret service officers or the police as an expert penman counterfeiter. The Sun's informant gives this description of Nlnger's method of work: "The operator first procured bond paper, which is of about the same thickness and toughness as the genuine 'distinctive' paper prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury under the act of Congress. Of course, the bond paper has no silk fibre, but of this hereafter. The operator cut the bond paper the exact size of the genuine note, and it was then Immersed in a weak solution of coffee. This baptism imparted to it the appearance of agebut not excessive age as if the note had passed through several hands. It seemed soft and mellow, but not worn or ragged "While the bond paper) was still wet it was placed over the face of the genuine note, the edges being exactly together. The two were thtn placed fiat upon a pane of glass and every figure and letter, portrait and vignette, with the signature of the Register of the Treasury and of the Treasurer of the United States, were brought out in bold relief, and could be plainly seen through the transparent bond paper. While this was still damp the operator approached a window and there placed his pane of glass, at an angle of about forty-five degrees, against the window frame. The light, of course, shone through, rendering the tracery of the genuine engraving distinct. In this position the operator commenced work, first with an extremely hard and sharp-pointed lead pencil. With it he carefully traced and reproduced upon the bond paper, all parts, even the most minute, of the genuine note. The tracing with the pencil was succeeded by ue cf pen and ink, and the same ground was gone over, but meantime, of course, the bond paper had become thoroughly dry. It was here that the marvelous touch and skill of the penman were displayed, and the steadiness of his nerves, the accuracy of his eye, and his patience are not the least of the marvels of his work. The shadings and traceries were near.

ly perfect. The reproduction of the portrait of Alexander Hamilton upon the twenty-dollar note Is calculated to deceive almost any expert. "The operator used a camel's hair brush to put the colors upon the note, and these colors were Imitated so perfectly that It could not be suspected that they were not genuine. The silk threads, which, in the genuine note are worked into the pulp cf the paper, were Imitated with the pen with red and blue ink. The fragmentary marks were placed upon the back of the counterfeit, so that if the false money should be held up to the light it would appear to be the genuine fibre paper. "Every obligation of the government. Issued as money, bears upon Its face the imprint of the seal of the treasury of the United States. Perhaps the skill of Ninger was displayed in the execution of the Imitation of the treasury seal in a more marked degree than In any other part of his work. The colors were carmine, like those of a postage stamp, but the tracings were intricate and difficult. Yet the artist, if such he may be called, reproduced it all with wonderful skill and fidelity: so that the appearance of the seal would add very much to the deception. "The money, whether coin or notes, Is prepared, of course, with1 secrecy: but In 'shoving the queer' It becomes necessary to move cautiously and carefully. An t operator and his pal 'do the streets of a city, going from one place of business to another. They avoid, as much as possible, being Feen together; but the one who passes the bad money takes only one piece of It at a time. With this he goes into a grocery, for Instance, and purchases some trifle. If successful In his deception, he gets his change, which Is the profit, returns to his pal, gets another bad coin or. note, and the process Is repeated Indefinitely. If the operator is detected and arrested and searched, he has no other bad money, and may say, as an innocent man couM, that he did not know It was counterfeit. The pal In the street, who has the fraudulent money In bulk, slips away, and that may be the end of the case. "T'-iat is how the front of the note was made. The work on the back was less difficult, because there was not so much of It, and because, too, It was done almost entirely with a bru?h. The lmmers'ng of counterfeits in a solution of weak coffee Is an old trick of counterfeiters, but it probably will be admitted by everybody that this Is the only old thir"? about the producing of these pen. Ink and brush notes. The rest is startlingly new.'! CHARGES AGAINST HIM. Ninger 13 held In default of $20,000 ball. The specific accusations against hint' in the complaint are these: "That with intent to defraud he did make and execute with pen. Ink, brush and pencil and did keep In his possession -and pass a certain falsely, made, forged and counterfeited obligation, tof the United States, purporting to be a,' United States note of tho denomination cf fifty dollars;" and that in like manner he "did make, keep and pass a certain other United States note of the denomination of twenty dollaiv." The $&) note bore on its face the portrait of Benjamin Franklin and a vignette, and th twenty a portrait of Alexander Hamilton and a vignette. The ordinary counterfeiter, in distinction from this extraordinary one, works with a gang. In another respect this counterfeiter differs from tha ordinary counterfeiter. The ordinary makes and deals In notes of small denomination bscause it Is easier to pass them. Nfitrs cf trz9 denomination ar scrutinized n lrly always by persons to whom they are oLcrea. Thesa acta withstood their scrutiny, . - . . " . '

It Is a fact that bankers have been deceived by them, and so have the officers of the subtreasury. Some of them have passed through many hands before their character was discovered. The Sun's informant says that It took about two weeks to make one of the $20 bills, and three weeks to make one of the $C0 or $100 bills. A great many persons believe that Ninger Is such a clever man that he should not be punished, but shou'.d be released and put at some honest work. These persons do not argue with Daniel T. Ames, the writing expert, that Ninger's ability Is of merely a Sarrot-like character. One of these men Is . O. Packard, whose letter to the Sun cn Thursday, casting doubt on the ability of any man to make a counterfeit with pen and Ink alone and offering $100 for a sample of the work stirred up such a hornet's nest. The Sun received this letter from Mr. Packard yesterday: "You have me cornered, no doubt, and I don't mean ,to squirm. 'Ninger and the Sun are too many for me. The $20 greenback you sent me through the hands of Mr. Morley I would 'have taken without a second thought In ordinary exchange, and yet It was, in many respects, the veriest make-believe. Mr. Ames may characterize the mere Imitator as a parrot, but Farmer Ninger doesn't belong to that class. He is a flrst-clas impressionist in that, while he does not descend to shoe ties, he does not fool the observer Into the belief that he sees the shoe ties. I call this little short of genius, and, inasmuch as Ninger hasn't defrauded anybody, his "utterances" being worth, as rated by hollers, much more than their face, I think It would be a shame to punish him. He ought to be set at honest work and taught to be useful In a better way. But Inasmuch as the sharp detectives of the government have been after him for twenty years, more or less, and have finally caged him, I suppose . he must be 'made an exampte of. But it Is a shame, all the same. If he had only been guilty of cramming primaries and falsifying returns under oath he would hive been a 'political worker of Influence and renown and entitled to high consideration among his fellow citizens. Even Brother Piatt wouldn't turn him down. "The genius of Ninger, as I have Intimated, and his great pre-eminence Is as an impressionist. In my former letter I called attention to the border of the obverse side of the $10 greenback and said it could not be done in lees time than a month. I revise that statement. It could not be done at all. and Ninger

wouldn't attempt It. I confess to you that until I took up this note to examine It critically in order to estimate the forger's labor I never knew there was a border; least of all did I know what it contained. The astute forger trades on this mental peculiarity and eo doesn't get his foot in it by attempting what is both Impossible and unnecessary. The same is true of the lathe work, upon which the government depends as a sure defense against Imitation. I called attention to the impossibility of imitating the fine, white, geometrical lines of the lathe work, and confess that I had this work in mint when I offered $100 for an imitation of a $10 greenback that would deceive a newsboy. The fact Is, there is not a newsboy living who would examine the lathe work on the back of a $10 greenback before pocketing it; and in that respect we are all newsboys' all except the government detectives. "Now, cannot something be done for Mnger? He is a very small offender at mot, and I don't know of any holder o h'.s 'circulation' who would part with it for double its face value. He has not harmed anybody, not even the government, but ha really conferred a favor on the public. The account of his rare achievements has fll.el many columns of the city press that would otherwise have been given over to domestic scandal or tho 'McKlnley boom about which we have quite too much. I don't seem to be able to get a Ninger greenback for my $100. I will gladly contribute it to a fund to defend the artist." . THE VARYING DATE OP EASTER. Determined by Complicated Calculations Based on Arbitrary Rales. New York Tribune. m The annual changing of the date of Easter Is a puzzle to many, in lS9i it was on March 25. and in 1895 on April 14. This year it will be on April 5. next Sunday, and next year l: will be on April 18. Some years It may be as early as March 21, and in others as late as April 25, a period of five weeks intervening between the earliest and latest dates on which the sacred festival may be held. Since 1862 the earliest date of Easter was March 25. In 1883 and 1894. Within that number of years it has only once been on April 25. and that was in 1883. ' Easter 13 always the first Sunday after tho full moon which happens upon or next after March 21, and if the full moon falls on Sunday, March 21, Easter will be on the following Sunday, March 28. It Is arbitrarily ruled that the paschal full moon shall never fail later than April 18, although a consistent method of scientific computation and instrumental determination would make it sometimes fall on April 13. " . The name Easter, like the names of the days cf the week, is a survival from the old Teutonic mythology. It is derived from Eostre. or Ostara. the Anglo-Saxon Goddess of Spring, in whose honor the ancients held a festival every April. Seven movable feasts depend on Easter for the date of their annual recurrence. Thy are: Septuagtsima Sunday. Ash Wednesday. Palm Sunday and Good Friday, which prcedes it, and Ascension Day, Whit Sunday and Trinity Sunday, which fellow it. The returns of Easter were originally regulated by the Calendar of Judea, In which the months were conterminous with the revolutions of the moon. A mean lunation being about twenty-nine and one-half days long, twelve lunar months, or a lunar year, fall about eleven days short of a solar year, so that the beginning of the Jewish yeagoes backward on the natural year about e.even days annually, and requires an intercalary month to be interpolated in the third, sixth, ninth, eleventh and fourteenth years, and so on. These conditions caused much dissension between the Genti.e churches of Italy and those of the East, the former wishing to have the festival occur on a date to be determined on a different basis of calculation, while the others desired it to be held on the day of the Jewish Passover. Tne Council of Nicaea. after long discussion, settled the dispute in A. D. 325 by issuing a decree that Easter should be on the first Sunday after the fourteenth day of that lunation whoe fourteenth day falls not earlier than March 21. To compute the date on which Easter may fall in different years, one must be familiar with Dominical letters, "Golden Numbers." paschal moons, etc.. and then patiently solve an abstruse astronomical problem. The easiest way to find the date Is to consult the calendar of the Protestant Episcopal Church, which contains tables which give the desired information for a long serk of years. - FALLING BEHIND WHITES.

"If you go to Atlanta, where a few years ago there was nothing but colored horsesaaers, you will see signs of 'Veterinary Horseshoeing And you will not find two black horseshoers there. The white man knows more about the anatomy of the horse's hoof and he shoes the animal in a scientific manner. There is no room for the old negro horseshoer. Only a few years ago in Atlanta you could see the old colored uncles going around the streets with a long pole and a whitewash brush and bucket.
