At iho opening of business in Denver," Col., last Monday morning that city had seventeen banks In operation.

THE SILVER COINAGE.

jj ae United States goverment took the ioney coinage of the country into its 'own hands in 1792. From that year till 1873 only 8,045,838 silver dollars were coined altogether. Fiom 1873 to 1878 silver coinage was stopped. In 1878 it was resumed, and from 1878 till 1890 $378,166,793, were coined in silver. In 1890 our coinage legislation was again overhauled, and what is called the Sherman act was passed in deference to the growing power of the silver men in congress.

The 1890 law requires the secretary of the treasury to purchase every month 4,500,000 fine ounces of silver bullion and pay for it in the Dotes now known as silver certificates. When these certificates were presented for payment at the treasury, the secretary was to pay out gold or silver for them, at his discretion, but styJb has been the state of public sentient that his discretion has always bee/ to pay in gold. In addition .to the issuance of the silver certificates the secretary was required by law to coin $2,000,000 a month from July 1, 1890, till Ju/y 1, 1891.

Sinco the resumption of silver coinage in 1878 419.294,835 silver dollars have been issued from the mint. Of this number only $58,016,019 are in aotual circulation. Of outstanding silver certificates there are $326,489,165.

THE WASHINGTON LOBBY*IST. It will be two weeks from Monday n^xtbefore congress meets, but for mere than a week past the lobbyists have been dropping into Washingt rffl |M|| r— jmrW*to unWtheir services are required. Some of them complain of the early session, booause it breaks in upon their summer vacation and cuts short their period of rest and recreation, while there are others who are heartily glad that the president cilled the extra session a month earlie/than originally intended.

The business cT the lobbyist is not the least profitable in the world. One of them, called the king of tho lobby by many, made $150,000 during the first session of the last congress, and $100,000 during th^ second, yet he has been an grv at the meaflireness of hia returns and threatens to retire from business But he loves money too well to quit, and the high living vonchsafed him by his large returns has too many attractions to allow him to straj far away Such man as this takes no interest in a bill and doesn't care how It goes until his services have been secured. Then he goes to work in earnest.

During the coming session the "members of th^ third house" look for some rich picking. The Bilverites are expect ed to come down liberally In their endeavor to remain in business, while those in the gold camp aro not going to lose if a judicious expenditure on the lobby will do them any good. Then there are lobbyists who look for rich rara spoils in the tariff bill. There are interests in the country willing to pay haiulsotnoly to have a certain existing rat© of duty retained on certain articles of manufacture, and the lobbyists are willing to do what they can to*secure its retention. Then there are foreign interests willing to pay handsomely to have a certain existing rate of duty taken off a certain article of manufacture, and there are lobbyists willing to do their best to havo it taken off-for so much.

It may seem strange, but yet It is tree, that very little of the money paid these lobbyists finds Its way to the pockets of congressmen, There are very few of the members who would take money, and those who do bay© little or no influence. The work is doae principally through friendship. No bill could ever get through congress unices earnestly championed by one or more menJbers. The lobbyists have no trouble in inducing their friends inside to help them, because the members know that by doing so they will beat liberty when some piece of legislation In which they are interested comes up, to go to the lobbyist and ssk that ho support it, which he does by asking oiher friends to aid it. These lobbyists are able t* form combinations where congressmen could not atieiapt it, and on that account are valuable to con? —r this reason akme the ,*t is W, to m«rabir of ismgraa*, sat? so money la any biU, so fararthe«on«ressmatueaiu see. h$ will vote for ft to hi* frfeQd, the lobbyist.

It is generally supposed that tho militia "encampment was gotten up by the state for the benefit of the state. It seems that this is a mistake. Some one

who

claims authority to do so is charging an admission fee of five cents to the ground, which includes a peep at the moon, but no privileges at the lunch stands. If the encampment is to be run as a circus

and

menagerie it should be

no cheap John affair. If it is worth a fee to see our militia in camp^put it at fifty-cents, with an extra, quarter,4?r front seats.

A Chicago special to the Indlan»pu*lB Newjs yesterday had this to say: "Considerable comment has been occasioned in Fair circles by Executive Commissioner Havens's refusal to comply with the request of the directory that all articles found in and about the various State buildings be turned over to the recent-ly-established Bureau of Lost and Found. He avers that persons losing valuables In his building have invariably applied first to his secretary, and if the articles have been found and left with the latter, there is mnoh unnecessary trouble and red tape avoided. Mr. Havens has written to DirectorGeneral Davis requesting thift the periodical visits of Mr. Bonfleld's socalled deteotives be discontinued. One of these sleuths was so boisterous recently in his demands that the lost property be handed over, thfet ho

thrown out bodily by the rnuscoi&ir janitor from Lafayette. One of the latter, Horner, has in the exercise of his duties found several purses and articles of jewelry, Including three diamond rings, all of whioh have been returned to the owners. The property now awaiting claiments in the commissioner's office consists chiefly of women's fans and parasols." Major C. E. Vandever, formely of Terre Haute, is on§ of Mr. Bonfleld's leading men. f-

If children are compelled to submit to anything except as they comprehend, the contradiction is based on a larger wisdom and a truer principle than determines their impulses—they are retarded in their development. It is the first dijty of parent or guardian to establish authority through 'winning confidence, the most sacred duty to be worthy the confidence gained.—Housekeeper. teaching Children the Value of Money.

As soon as a child is old enough to understand the value of money it should be taught to keep a small cash account, if only to show what use is made of the funds placed at its disposal. If the family is living in the country, it is an excellent plan for the boys and gfrls to have a vegetable garden of their own and sell the vegetables to the family, as it is said to be the custom

frequently in good English families. This should not be a mere matter of play. The vegetables should be purchased on their merits alone and at the prevailing market prices, inferior ones being thrown back upon the young gardener in order to teach him practical methods of business. Such simple vegetables as radishes and lettuce may be easily raised by a boy, or a girl either, for that matter. It teaches children self reliance to earn their own spending money. It is just as necessary that a girl should learn this as that her brother should.— Philadelphia Times.

To Remove the Shine 'From a Waist. It is not generally known, but very well worth temembering, that the shine can bo easily and quickly removed from the shoulders and elbows of one's gowns by a gentle friction with emery paper. Don't rub too hard, just enough to raise a little nap, and then, in the case of cashmere or other smooth goods, go over the place a few times with a warmed silk handkerchief.—Chicago Inter Ocean.

The discipline, failing fed recognize the individual nature and aiming to thoroughly control, may retard the consciousness of moral responsibility in a child so that no determining power within is developed and the will be suppressed or overcome. That such a government of children cannot be too earnestly decried can readily be perceived by logically following the results. We have men and women who cannot determine any action for themselves, but always depend on the resolutions of developed natures to guide them. We can have no brave men and women save through the strong will that fearless the obedience to good principles.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co. Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address,
