: : Y [ 1 CLEVELAND LIKES IT. Oarlisle’s Scheme Meets the Ap- -~ proval of the President. But He Thinks the Pending Measure Only a Step in the Direction ef Currency Reform and a Sound| Finan- . / s cial Condition, : : ; { y WASHINGTON, Jan. s.—,,—’fhe president has thrown off his usual reserve in “discussing the pending currency bill with members of congress. Chairman Bpringer of the currency committee, Representative Culberson and sevearal other house leaders have called at the’ - white house of late and have talked at length with the president on the currency question. In these - talks Mr. Cleveland h#s urged the great need of passing sbme form of currency legislation. He has pointed out that the Carlisle bill was not a re- . form of every existing evil of the financial system, any more than the tariff bill was a' complete realization of the hopes of tariff reform. Yet, in the judgment of the president, the Carlisle bill was a stepin theright direction, and with that accomplished there was hope of progressing until the financial system was| perfectéd at every point. Mr. Cleveland expressed his approval of the Carlisle bill as a whole and in detail. He'did not point out to his callers anything that'he re.garded as a flaw in it. - He expressed the hope that it would receive favora< ble and speedy action. | ; ——— . - AUSTRIA PROTESTS.

Objection Raised to the Discrlmmatlng . Sugar Duty.| :

- WasHIN6TON, Jan. 7—Baron von Hengelmueller, the new minister of " Austria-Hungary, has presented to Secretary Gresham a formal protest from his government similar to that presented by the German ambassador August 26 last protesting against the discriminating duty of ane-tenth of i per cent. per pound on sugar coming . from countries paying an export boun- { ty thereon as provided by the Wilson tariff act. . * The protest as in the case of Germany is based on the faet that the ac- - tion of congress cannot | be reconciled with the most favored nation clause, which governs the economic relations of the two countries. This clause in our existing treaty with Awustria is in almost identical terms with that between the United State§ and Prussia, upon which the German protest was based. : - President Cleveland in his last annual message recommended the ;‘repeal _ of that clause of the tariiﬁ act ‘which imposed the discriminating duty, and subsequently transmitted to congress a report from Secretary Gresham strongly stating the injustice of the law and urging its repeal. It is probable that congress will be notified of Austria’s = protest, and - attention will: again] be = called officially to the matter. {From the similarity apparent between the latest protest, and that of the German ambassador it is evident;!that the two countries are acting in|concert in‘the matter, and it seems jprobable that Austria will further follow Germany’s lead by inaungurating a policy of retaliation against the food.products of the United States. i 2

A DEFAULTING TREASURER. Thought to Have Been iLynched in Nebraska—A Hanging in Kentucky. .O’NEILL, Neb., Jan. 38.—Barrett Scott, defaulting treasurer of [Holt county to the extent of several thousand dollars, is supposed to have been hanged by vigilantes, who then weighted the body and threw it into the quicksands in the Niobrara river Monday aftepnoon. L ,3 - Mrs. Scott says she does not think there is any question that Scott was murdered. The citizens of O’Neill are making strenuous effdrts to capture the perpetrators of -:this highhanded crime. - | | i MouNt SteRLING, Ky., Jan. 3.—About 2 o’clock Tuesday morning a mob of twenty-five men went to the county jail, overpowered Jailer Best, secured the keys and took from jail Tom Blair, of Morgan county, and hanged him to a railroad trestle in the city limits. Blair fought desperately for his life,and was beaten almost into insensibility before he was hung.. - Blair was one of «the parties who assigsted in killing Capt. J. L. Bonar in th}s city last February. He was cleared of the charge and was in_jail for shooting with intent to kill a few days ago. It is supposed friends of Bomar were the lynchers. ; e : " URGENT DEFICIENCY BILL.

4 T 'HOW WE STAND. i —— Dun and Bradstreet Feel the Pulse of i Trude and Finance. NEw YORK, Jan. 7.—~R G. Dun & Co. s weekly review ot trade says: “The complete review of different branches of business given Friday places in a clear light the fact that prices of commodities are at the lowest level ever gnown. Eight years ago, in July, prices averaged only 73.69 per cent. of the prices for the same articles and in the Bame markets January 1, 1860, and this remained the lowest point ever touched until August 10, 1893, when the average fell to 72.76, but early this. year prices dropped below all previous records and have never recovered, the average December 26, being only 6873 per cent. of the price in 1860. The range was very littie higher at the end of the year and about as low October 25. The fall since a year ago has been b% per cent; but very unequal in different branches. In iron and steel products 14 per cent., in wool 13.4 per cent, in woolens and cottons about 15 per cent. These changes contrast sharply with the decline of wages paid per hour's work, which as was shown last week average only one-half per cent. less than a year age.

"’W volume of business represented by ex= chages at the principal clearing houses was $156,450,000 daily in December, against §141,604.000 in January, but 8.1 per cent. larger at- the | end than .last year, Ihile 85 per | cent. less than" last year in January. Comparing with 1802, a year of general prosperity, the decrease for December was 206.1 and ranged from 21,7 to 29.2 below that year since June. but at the hegin 1 ning of the year was 82.8 per cent. below 1892, and ranged from 23 to 37 per cent.. below that year, for the first five months. N “During the greater part-of the year busle ness has been disturbed by monetary appre= hensions, the gold reserve in the treasury-hav-ing fallen dangerously low. Two sales of §50,000,000 5 per cent. bonds gave only teme rary relief, and at the end ‘of the ggar the frée gold had again dropped to about $83,894,032. The exports of &4,550,000 gold this week are jot because of merchandise movement, for the excess of ex= ports over the imports of| merchandise has been frem $20,000,000 to §30,000,000 per month, Unquestionably large withdrawals of foreign capital. through sales of securities and otherwise have caused the outgo, the duration and extent of which therejoreJ depends upon other th% commercial elements. Extraordinary abundance of money has resulted from the general dullness of trade; and the movement to this -.center has beén unprecedented in vol= ume. :

“The condition of industries has been large- | ly governed by the fall in prices, and while ! production is much greater than a year ago, ] the aggregate increase being fairly measured by the inciease of 824 per cent. -in | hours of work done in | November, com=- | pared with the previous year, it has been the controlling feature in almost every ’ important industry that consumption has not kept pace with' the output, and has not sus- | tainéd prices.: Iniron and steel, the lowest ! prices of the year are at the close. The woolen industry records a production for the year of about a quarter less than normal and for the last four. months, 28.47 per cent. less than in 1892 in quantity of wool - consumed, but in value of product the ! decrease was of course greater. The cotton ' industry, while materially close to the cheapest point ever known, keeps most of the mills at work, but by selling goods at prices quite unprecedented. The output of boots and shoes has been the largest known in number of pai‘rs, but besides a fall in price below all recoords, there has been a general preference for the lower priced goods. . - : . ‘““The year has been especially noteworthy for the lowest prices of wheat and cotton on record. Both suffer from wholly unprecedent= ed accumulation of stocks, crops being larger. gutslde this country * wheat - production as .not. increased enough <to justify a price of sixty cents at New York, and the accumulation is largely due to false reports of the yield intended to frighten buyers and raise prices. The same infiuerce has beenfelt in cotton, which is also affected by word-wide depression in business and decreasé in consumption’ of goods. 'ln other produce markets the year has been relatively o less important. 42 3 : “Failures for 1894 are fully reported this week, being 13,882 in the United States, and 1,856 in Dominion of Canada.. Liabilities in the United States were $172,992,856, and in Can= -ada $27,616,215. Neither the decrease of over half in this country, nor the iricrease of over 40 per cent. in Canada, is surprising, but the statement shows that most of the decrease in the United States is in manufacturing liabilities, while the entire increase in Canada is liabilitiés of trading concerns. A few states, including New York and Pennsylvania, show more failures -than in 1893, and in a few southern states, the amount of liabilities is larger, but in ¢Central and western states very much smaller. In ‘eleven of the last thirty-eight years, reported liabilities have been larger than in 1894, though . for this year and 1893, the statement is confined to commercial failures, as it was not in former years. The failures .have been 125 in every thousand flrms doing business; the liabilites have averaged $132.77 to each firm in trade, ' and in proportion to the volume of solvent business represented by all clearing house ex= | changes, $2.63 for every $l,OOO. Bradstreet’s says: %

‘‘There has been no material improvement in general trade within a week. A tabulation of Bradstreet’s telegraphed reports from the more important trade centers does not revealt specially hopeful views as to an improvement in business in the near future. In many. in<' stances trade revival is declaréd to depend on a settlement of the currency question. The most encouraging expressions of opinion are that merchants are hopeful.’’

SCORES CLEVELAND.

Gov. Waite in His- Message Pays His Respects to the President.

DexvEß, Col., Jan. 7.—At the joint session of the senate and house Friday morning Gov. Waite read his annual message, the principal portion of which deals with matters of local interest only. An immense crowd gathered to listen to the governor's final message. It was rigorous at times, but in the main frivolous. -

He says that if the free coinage of silver is ever obtained it will have to be done through the. people’s party, and blames the republican party for the destruction of the silver product. The goveruor calls the bankers robbers and says that often when they stick up a sign of $1,000,000 capital stock *‘full paid up” only promissory notes represent the amount. ; The message arraigns President Cleveland for violating the statutes of the United States by sending troops to different parts of the state where trouble was said to be imminent, whén the governors of the state were not notified of the trouble,and recommends that the assemblymemorialize congress protesting against such wusurpation. In his recommendation of the abolition of capital punishment he said: ‘““And I suggest as a substitute that the most hardened eriminals be compelled to run as candidates for some state office.” '

BATTLE WITH MOONSHINERS. Two Illicit Distillers Killed and Two Cap-~ , tured in Arkansas. LittLE Rock, Ark., Jan. 5 —Sheriff H. L. Jennings, with two deputy marshals and a large posse of assistants, made a desperate raid on a moonshine still 16 miles from Clinton, Van Buren county, last Wednesday night and succeded in killing two of its operators and capturing the still. The posse crept up to within a short distance of it before their presence was discovered. Though taken unawares the moonshiners made a desperate fight, and for awhile bullets flew in every direction. Putnam, the léader of the moonshiners, was shot through the head and fell dead on the ground. His nephew, a boy of 17, tumbled over mortally wounded. Two moonshiners were eaptured and one escaped. Not one of the posse was seriously wounded, ‘though Sheriff’ Jennings bad & narrow ‘escape from death. The officers have arrived here with the two prisoners,

FARM AND GARDEN. o MOTOR CARRIAGES. Their Introduction Depends Upon the Im- . provement of Our Roads. The United States in some of its aspects, despite its great population, its-large cities, wealth and inventive powers, appears suscef)tible of further advances. Of late agitation in directions affecting what may be termed its internal economies has been manifest, and good roads for the country districts, electric traction lines for country and city alike, and improved pavements for cities have been discussed on all sides by private citizens and by legislators. Ten years ago the steam railroad, the growth of little morge than a generation, was pointed to with interest as a cause which had revolutionized the world, For in modern times the transportation of freight and of passengersis the most important business of humanity. The idea of the steam railroad was the creation of large units of transportation. Great trains of cars bearing several hundred passengers became the railway manager’s ideal. v The steam railroad seems to have reached pretty nearly its limit, and now a most formidable competitor for local traffic has come upon the scene in the electric road. The five and six. car steam train is supplantéd by a number of single trolley cars runat frequent intervals. These matters the capitalists have in charge. But the improvement of roads. and streets affects the munieipalities, the county and state authorities, and very directly the individual For on roads and streets the horsedrawn vehicle and the bicycle travel, and the latter, once a toy and now an everyday vehicle, is a principal cause of the new agitation. With good roads all over the face of the country and with proper city pavements a new field of work for the inventor at once is open. The horse is being more and more relegated to the background. The bicycle surpasses him in its powers of transporting humanity, It illustrates the immense reduction of friction on journals by the use of ball bearings. After ball bearings had settled this part of the problem the rolling friction difficulty was solved by the pneumatic tire, and the bicycle, in great measure a perfected type of machine, is going into universal use. In France recently there has occurred a competition between road vehicles - driven by power. From the early days of this century repeated efforts have been made to produce a road engine. To the existence of this -chhine a good road surface is essential. .France is peculiarly adapted to its ‘introduction on account of her good roads. - There the bicycle is in universal use, and the power-driven road wagon may become a part of the machinery of transportation.

* In the United States. with cobblestone pavements, and with sandy and muddy roads disgracing city and country alike, much has to be done before the work of producing a successful traction engine or carriage can be accomplished. But the production of the bicycle has done much to facilitate progress, and has solved so many of the mechanical problems of the perfect road vehicle, that it seems a pity that the power problem cannot also be solved. The motor is now what is wanted. It must belight. - The bicycle of twenty-five pounds weight carries a twao hundred pound rider. The metor carriage of the future must be light. . With good roads all through the country traversed-on bicycles by every one, and with power-driven vehicles for freight, in place of horse and wagon, the life in the country districts would be revolutionized. Daily delivery of the mail and of light express matter would become practicable, and the progress ‘of the individual would be favored. But until good roads come this cannot be. The trolley road as an approach to the desired cheap traction has proved welcome to the country and suburban dwellers. The advent of a practical power-driveh vehicle coupled with good roads would prove just as welcome and more in consonance with the vested rights of the community in such roads as they possess; rights in which are now surrendered to the electric road companies with.far too great readiness.—Scientific American. |

Fresh Water for Cows.

Cows in milk will consume nearly fifty per cent. more water than the same cows when not giving milk. The New York experiment station af Geneva found as an-average of severa.E breeds that each cow drank 1,03 pounds of water and consumed 854 f pounds more in food per month. Dml ing lactation the average per montlk was 1,600 pounds drank and 774.8 pounds consumed in food. The pounds of water consumed for each pound of milk produced were as follows: Ayrshires, 4.265 Guernseys, 5.07; qus_teinsi. 4.43; Jerseys, 5.24; Shorthorns., 5 Holderness, 8.95; Devons, 4.82; makin an average of 4.68 pounds.

) . LESSON NOTES. , . The Missionaries’ Report.—vff. 30. A few weeks before the martyrdom of John the Baptist, Jesus had sent out His disciples among the villages of Galilee, He Himself going also (Mark 6:12, 13; Mdtt. 11:1). They went everywhere, preaching the Gospel/and healing the sick, apparently with great success. But when the news of the death of John reached them, they seem 'to have been overwhelmed, and ‘‘gathered themselves together unto Jesus,” probably at His usual center of work, Capernaum. : & ~Jesus and His Disciples Retire from Herod’s Dominion.—Vs. 31, 32. V. 31. ““Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place;” not a barren, sandy place, but one uninhabited, wild pasture or woodland. There were two chief reasons for this course. The first, given by Matthew (14:13), was on account of the news of John'’s death. In the excitement Herod might seek to imprison or murder Jesus and His disciples, who were equally with John opposed to Herod's crimes. And there was danger of a political revolt, which was entirely contrary to the plans and purposes of Jesus, but which might center around His person. The second reason is here given. ‘‘And rest awhile” after their severe labors and excited interest on account of John. They could not rest at Capernaum, for in these exciting times ‘‘there were many coming and going” perhaps anxious to kn%ow what course Jesus would take. { :

Great Multitudes Follow Him.—V. 33. “The people saw them departing,” and knew by the direction the boat took toward what part of the lake they were going. Some recognized them and reported to others. ‘‘Ran afdot,” that is by land, in contrast with the disciples in the boat. This was doubtless early in the morning. “‘Out-of all cities,” such as 'Capernaum, Chorazin and Bethsaida. They ran round by the head of the lake, taking one ot the fords of the river, so as to meet Jesus, who was crossing |with the twelve by ship. 1 . ‘Jesus Teaches the 'Multitude ' and Heals the Sick.—34. ‘“‘Jesus . . .

was moved with compassiq'n toward them.” The crowds were ignorant, restless, sinful. They had brought also their sick, who:were but. a living parable of their spiritual state. Weary and troubled as Jesus was, His heart could not let the multitudes go without help, for “they were as sheep not having a shepherd.” They were destitute of teachers to feed, to guide, to protect, in a word, to shepherd them. - Jesus Communes with His® Disciples. —From John (6:3), we learn that Jesus did not spend all His time with the multitudes, but went up on the mountain side, and sat with His disciples, the usual: posture of teaching. Here they could rest, and talk over their evangelizing tour, their plans, their successes, their mistakes, and receive the instruction they would soon need as to the true way of preaching the Gospel to the world, and as to the Gospel they should preach. | The Hungering Multitudes. — 35. ‘“‘When the day was now far spent:” The first evening (Matt. [14:15) had come, which began at three o’clock. “The dizciples came unto Him.” The fuller gonversation is given in John. 36. “Send them away . . . buy themselves:” Many of these were Passover pilgrims and had no homes, but must buy their food. They must go soon, or it would be too late. 37. “Give ye them to eat:” This Jesus said to prove them (John), whether they had so much faith in Him as the Messiah as to believe that He could supply the multitude with food. They found a small boy (John), who had ‘five, and two fishes.” The Greelk’" apsarion is a_ diminutive; it properly means what was eaten along with the bread, and specially refers to the small and generally dried or pickled fish laten with bread. 39. “And He commanded them to make all sit down:” or recline, as in the Greek, the .customary posture for eating. There were five thousand men, besides women and children. 41. “Gave them to His disciples to set before them:” gave is in a tense which describes a coatinuous re;‘)ea‘ted' action. The pieces grew under His touch, and the disciples al&ays found His hands full when they 'f:a,me back with their own empty. 42. ‘“And were filled:” No one went away hungry.

Gathered Up the Fragments. —43. ‘““And they took up twelve baskets:” All four accounts have the same word for basket, cophinus, i. e., the wallet which every Jew carried when on a journey, to_keep himself independent of Gentile food. which would be unclean. | s

o T 1e - Golden Medical Cures Ninety-eight per cent. of all cases of Consumption, in all its Earlier Stages. i Although by many believed to be incurable, there is the evidence of hundreds of living witnesses to the fact that, in all its earlier sta.Nges, consumption is a curable disease. Not every case, but a large percentage of cases, and we Dbelieve, }::Ily 98 &er cent, are cured by Dr. Pierce’s Golden edical Discivery, even after the disease has grogressed so far as to induce Tepeated bleedings from the lungs, severe lingerin cough with copious expegforation (inclucf ing tubercular matter), great loss of flesh and extreme emacidtion and weakness. Do you doubt-that hundreds of such cases reported to us as cured by ‘‘ Golden Medical Discovefy ”’ were genuine cases of that dreadrand fatal disease? You need not take our word for it. They have, in nearly every instance, been so pronounced by the best and most experienced home physicians, who have no interest whlgever in niisrepresenting them, and who were often strongly Fré‘judiced and advised against a trial of ‘‘Golden Medical Discovetz," but who have been forced to confess that it ‘surpasses, in curative power over this fa&l malady, all other medicines with which they are acquainted. Nasty codliver oil and its filthy ‘‘emulsions”’ and mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these cases and had either utterly failed to beneAit, or had only seemed to benefit a little for ‘a short time. Extraet of malt, whiskey, and variousafreg:mtions of the h(ﬂmphos-‘ phites had also been faithfully tried in vain, - The photographs of a large number of those cured of consumption, brouchitis, lingering coushs, asthma, chronic nasal catarrh and kindred maladies, have been skillfully reproduced in a book of 160 pafes which will be mailed to You,‘ on receipt of address and six cents in stamps, _A%dreu for Book, World's Dispensary ‘Medical Association, Buffalo, N.

B 3 2 ¥ We wish to show the great value.that will be given for the money expended.. In the first place, the Magazine itself cannot be matched anywhere in the world for two dollars. If you wish to prove this, compare it with-any other as to matter, illustrations, quality of paper, printing, etc. Then, too, it is so designed as . to interest every member of the family, which makes it really a dozen magazines in one: Here, then, is the first $2.00 of the $48.00 mentioned above. The next : $5.00 is represented by the exquisite premium for the coming year, De Longpre’s “ Roses,” which is the most exquisite oil-picture that has ever been published, , and worth nearer $lO.OO than $5.00. Then comes a value of $3.00, represented by giving every lady reader all the patterns she/wishes to use during the year, and - in sizes to suit. A novel and important feature, introduced into DEMOREST’S & MAGAZINE last April, is a Portrait Album giving eight cabinet-size portraits - each month of the world’s celebrities, with a biographicalsketch of each person. . Each year’s collection of ninety-six portraits of distinguished men and women when inserted in the Portrait Album which we can furnish,. forms a handsome - orxgamen’fi for the home, as well as a valuable sdi;rce of information and refer- | ence, interesting all members of the family and their friends. The collection would cost over a hurdred dollars if made in any other way, as many of these -‘photographs are very expensive, neither time nor money being spared in making the collection. 1f we count each portrait at.the low valuation of only 25 centsit . would make $24.00 worth with your coming year’s magazines; and if you are a new subscriber and wish to commence your collection from the first we pub lished, we will send you the fifty-six already issued, and these fifty-six at 28 cents each would make another $14.00. Summing up all the above, you have a value of $48.00 for only $2.00. The following fifty-six Portraits were published in the last volume, which new subscribers will be entitled to free. The ninetysix for the coming year will include names as well known as those already given. 3 i e et ° s {a > 3 lhn,,k‘éspeure. s Robert Browninc, e Herbgrt Spencer, g | Rev.
