As we turned a corner in the road ' we caine upon a picturesque little hut hriade of rough logs, the interstices being filled with stones and clay, i pofed with slabs, and lighted by two femall windows.'It was altogether the * quaintest, rudest habitation that I fever saw. Before it sat two men, arrayed in what our guide termed “bang-up smart store-clothes,” but evidently, In their rugged, seamed Faces, stained and knotted hands, in short, everything about them, miners. Peeping into the doorway—askew like everything else about the hut—I caught sight of a chair, a slab-table With a tin coffee-pot upon it, a shelf supporting two op three pieces of crockery, together With a primitive household utensils. As wc approachfed, the two men took off" their hats With the rough courtesy which seems native with their class. “Well, Job, yer got a job?” said one, addressing our guide. 1 “Takin’ a raft o’ tenderfoots ter the mine,” answered Job. “Mighty shi art chaps, them two fellers,” observed Job, as we passed on. “One of them tickles the screamer, groat! t'other thumps the 6kin-tub, some, I tell ye.” The doctor glared at our pilot in mild amazement. “-I really am at a loss to comprehend the terms you have just made iise of; young man,” ho said. “Doubtless they are colloquialisms, but I fehould be gratified if you would explain what ‘tiukling the screamer,’ and ‘thumping the skin-tub’ may be.” ' "Huh!” snorted Job, in great disgust. “Them fellers belongs to the baud down t<?r the city, and one ot ’em plays the fiddle and t’other plays the drum. Now d’yer take?” “I understand,” replied the doctor meekly.

wo nact nearly reached tne brow ot the hill, when we found ourselves iu the midst ot a number ot men, some of whom appeared to be digging industriously, while others examined the dirt and pebbles thrown out by the 'shovels. As we came up they Stopped and looked at us in a goodnatured way, hailing our guide by hame. “Got her yet ?” queried Job. “Not yet,” was the reply ; “but she’s here, and we’ro bound to get her, 4ure!” “‘Hbr’ !” ejaculated the doctor, aghast. “Gracious heavens! Is it possible that sonmunfortunate female has been burriod alive? Give me a Bhovel. Every moment is precious!” The meu stared at the doctor in amaze. Job burst into a hoarse guffaw. “Yer way off mister,” he said. “There ain’t no woman in the business. Them fellers is prospectin',— diggin’ for silver. D’ye get on ? Iluh ! Huh!” he grunted,soto voce. “Blame my boots I ef he didn’t think they was rliggin’ fer a woman!”—From “Silver, From Mine to Mint,” in DemoI’USi’s Family Magaziue for October.

The Democrats 4 should put the same duty on raw sugar that the republicans did on white sugar. Everybody now uses refined sugar and putting a tariff on it was a characteristic trick of the republicans. They took the tariff tax off from raw sugar to give the sugar trust cheaper raw material, but left it on refjued sugar so that the trust could increase prices and collect that much more from the people. None but {he refiners want free raw sugar and taxed refined sugar, and consequently none but the refiners are benefited by it. Either the tariff should be taken off from the refined article or a corresponding tax should be put on the raw material. The latter course would probably be the best, as the tax is needed to meet the demand for pensions and other expenses. As it is now the sugar trust levies the tax and puts it down into its own pocket. The government gets nothing, while the people pay the full taxed price for the kind of sugar they use. The way the republican leaders manipulated the sugar tax in tho interests of the trust and against the,people should be enough to opeu the eyes of every poor man to the robbing methods of a tariff when skillfully manipulated by the McKinleys and their kind.

Penn’s Wills ami Wives. Capt. J. E. Barr of Philadelphia, recently found in a London curiosity shop a letter and a will in the.handwriting of William Penn. The letter and the will are written on regular old-fashioned note paper, 12 by 8L inches, while the deed is drawn tip on parchment. The letter reads as follows; “My .Most Dear Gulielma Penn— Being now about to leave this part of the world and ready to come to yba, not knowing how the Lord pleaseth to deal with me in my voyage,- lest the sea be my grave and the deep my sepulchre, I write unto thee, as mv beloved one, the great joy and crown of my life abovl; all visible comforts, always valued by mo and honored above women. Ido mogt dearly salute and embrace thee, with thy dear children, praying the God of. outmany and rich blessings to. be with vou and preserve you from the evil that is in the world and among those who profess the faith that is above it. “1 have herein inclosed niy will as to this place, the rest, being left to God. Again does my soul embrace thee and thine, so torever*sib#l! our spirits live together, where nothing shall divide or separate or grieve us., “Dearly Idiid tliee farewell and tny children, who must in the fear of the Lord and in the strict way of His holy truth. So the Lord God Almighty bless, keep and be with you forever. I am—.theirs and thine, in you. “William Penn;” lie adds several postscripts, in which he gives his wife some excellent advice, atd concludes by saying: “Live far-seeing; have great faith; teach the children love and humanity to the people.” The. will is short and concise, and is signed by Thomas Lloyd, Thomas Holmes, James Harrison and William Chauld, the four witnesses. The document is dated June 6,1084. llis' own signature is torn out, and is probable that when long afterward lie found] the will again he loro out his signature, and thus canceled the document instead of destroying if. The wilfwhich is on file is one he wrote after his marriage to his second wife, Hannah Collowhil), the will which has so lately been brought to light, having been written just before leaving for England after his first visit to America.—Philadelphia Times.

LOST A CAR, The Lake Erie Company Find Some Lonp-Lost Rolling Stock. For several months the officials of the Lake Erie & Western have been endeavoring to tind one ot the company’s box car’s, says the Indianapolis News. There has been much correspondence and several traces have been at walk. Saturday their labors were rewarded. The car was found at Richmond, Virginia, and lias been started on its way home. About the middle of last M,ay one of the New England roads, gave the car to a circus company. The circus people paiuted it a deep blue—even to tho wheels and trucks—and obliterated everything by which its owners could recognize it, huge signs were put on its sides and the top was covered with canvas. The car has been.taken all over the United States, and it is believed was at one time in Indianapolis. The Lako Erie & Western officials are now trying to ascertain whaf road gave the car to tho circus company, and will make that road a Christmas present in the shape of a nice, large bill for the rental of the car.

THE PRESENT TROUBLE. The panic of 1893 began with a money scare, followed by dhe wit hdrawal of large sums from circulation for the purpose of hoarding it. That phase of the difficulty has diappeared, Tlie banks have not recovered all their deposits, but they have recovered a large percentage of them, and in the proportion of reserves to liabilifies they are stronger than eyer, In New York there is an unusual accumulation of money, the bank reserves largely exceeding the legal requirements. Money is abundant but idle. Banks throughout the country are better supplied, as the result of a steady policy of pushing collections and restricting discounts, as well as of the steady return of money that had been withdrawn for hoarding. Tliere is no reason to apprehend any return of that uneasiness among the people that caused such withdrawals. The experience of the public has strengthened its confidence in the soundness of the banks, in their prudent and conservative management,

and in their solvency. Yet the difficulties of business are not at an end. The commercial revival which went on so briskly for ?t\vo or three weeks has been checked. Factories which were encouraged to resume by the action of the House in passing the repeal bill are beginning to meet with disappointment in the absence of orders. Jobbers who thought to nurse the returning vitality of trade by ' idling sales are becoming uneasy about the long credits which they qflered as an inducement to hesitating retailors. The commercial revival. wasv an anticipation. By sheer pluck and plentitude of resource the nation set the wheels going in advance of an; entire removal of doubt as to the future. Gold was borrowed from Europe in advance of the fall exports. Mills were• started up in advance of orders. Business everywhere drew drafts on the future. It was a speculation on the speedy restoration of normal conditions, to tollow the final passage by the Senate of the bill repealing the ^bfcrman act, and restoring confidence in our currency. That anticipation has not been realized. Its realization has been postponed far bevoud the most liberal estimate, and is not yet in sight. The country will not believe that its oivu servants will forever persist in defying the will it has so emphatically expressed, through the press, through the copitfiet'^isl bodies, and through the votes of a large majority of its representatives in the''House. It is sure to triumph. What it tears potv is not defeat, but delay. In the present emergency delay may be almost as bad as defeat. The banks have pulled through and are on solid ground. The pinch now is coming upon the merchants and manufacturers. Firms that might-have, been relieved from all embarrassment by a timely revival of trade are still struggling under difficulties. Those that started out briskly a month ago begin to fear being caught too far from shore with too heavy a line of credits. Collections arc not improving. .Stocks are low and must be replenished. Manufacturing obligations, that would have been easy to handle, had the rate of progress existing a month agoTieen kept up, are becoming apressing burden. A season of the year when trade should have been active is passing in dullness. The channels that should have been cleared bv the prompt action of Congress are still choked with doubt. In this emergency She banks, though well supplied with funds, can not freely extend aid through time loans, because of uncertainty as to how long this pause in improvement may continue. They can not safely make large time loans so long as the stagnation of trade makes collections slow. More than this, if the Senate delays too long the country may have to pay back in kind, instead of by the sale of securities or by a balance in trade, some of the $35,000,000 of gold borrowed from Europe during August, generally on sixty days’ time, for the purpose of relieving the stringency. This wpulej be only a temporary outflow, but' the necessity of providing against the possibility of it limits accommodations to business

men. Senators who persist in the stubborn assertion that tho Sherman Bill has nothing to do with the condition of business must be strangely or willfully blind to the check their delay has put upon the business improvement within the past two. weeks. It is no longer a question of panic. Th.e period of fright is over. It is simply a question whether or not the revival of trade, that is necessary to permit business houses to meet their obligations and escape failure, will be permitted in time or postponed too long.
