One Dore aloft the stars and stripes, the other a silken banner of virgin white..having in its renter a golden dove, a-uj in its mouth an olive branch. This wa- typified "The Flag of Peace’’—the reunion thirty years after of the victors and vanquished.

At Wilder park the entire day was devoted to the biggest -"old Kentucky barbecue" that was etjer spread. The Committee on -pensions made a voluminous rejxfrt in which the order voices its solemn protest against any policy which will impair, or diminish the liberal provisions made during the past thirty years for the assistance of veterans of the late war. The rbport denounces the burdens and restriction? imposed upon pensioners by recent constructions placed.upon the laws as unjust and unwise in the extreme. It insists that the law which constitutes a pension once granted a vested right of which the possessor cannot be deprived except by due process of law shall be carried out with the utmost good faith.

TOO MUCH WATER. The Little Town vt Gridley. Kan., Wiped Out of Exlsteacc. Ottawa, Kan., Sept, 11.—The little town of Gridlev. of 4sX> inhabitants, down in Coffey county, one of the termini of the Burlington branch of the Santa Fe, is a shattered wreck with not a single uninjured house in its confines. Most of the buildings and all of the stocks of goods ~bt every description arc utterly ruined About 8 o'clock Sunday a storm of wind and rain burst on the tow n from the northwest. A down-pour of rain immediately followed in a volume that can best be appreciated by the statement that 12 inches of water fell in au incredibly short time. This deluge completed the destruction that had not been accomplished ’by the wind. Strange to say with all the falling of roofs and walls and flying debris that broke windows far and near, not a person of the town reported more than the merest personal injury.

NO BONDS YET. Belief That It Will Not Bo Neooa- " sary to Issue Thom. The President Is Silent on the Subject, *ud We May Be Able to Get Along Without Them—Banks Offer Gold. WashingtoJv, Sept 16.—1 n financial and official circles in this cily the most prominent subject of gossip is the probability or possibility of another bond issue. The trend of opinion is . that there will be an issue if the drain cl gold should not soon show a. subsidence. There is no one in Washington to-day who can say knowingly that there will bo an issue of bonds. The popular be-lief-is based upop the remark that President Cleveland made previous to the last issue—that he should not hesiLjie to issue bonds at any time when, in his opinion, the situation demanded it. So far the president has . made no sign, nor has anyone been authorized to be his mouthpiece It is known ' that ho looks for a speedy reversal of present financial conditions, and it is believed that he will allow the longest possible time to elapse before he acts. It is known here that President Cleveland and Secretary Carlisle have a distinct understanding as to the treasury. Their policy Is to take measures to replenish the reserve whenever the danger point is reached. If tho demand for gold for. export shall coutinue unabated, and despite the effortsof public-spirited bankers to assist the government in its struggle the reserve shall eert-ainly dwindle, of course the danger line \Vill be approached Sooner or later and the sale of additional ‘securities lie made. I Those who are best informed as to the financial situation arse ver .- hope- - ful that trade .conditions will shift I within the next week or two so that the flow of gold to . the other side will stop. Our exports are slowly increasing and - the statement, issued by the statistical bureau of the j treasury department Saturday afteri noon shows that our imports are deI creasing. Thedrain Upon our resources, 1 chargeable largely to tlie .expenses of American tourists abroad, is falling off very rapidly and so it can be said that thee<jui 1 ibriuni i,s in process of rapid restoration. There is an end to everything and it stands to reason that the balance against us, which is now being settled iii gnld. will one .of these days be .'entirely paid off. and when that is done exportation of the yellow me tai will cease. Even.if the present .conditions con-tinue-some weeks longer, it is-argued that there need be nd cause’ for alarm. The syndicate with which Mr. Cleveland made an arrangeiueu’t' last spring has so far protected tl.iv Si< . ■ '.I reserve and has declared its intention of Continuing t» db so. I’erJiaps tlid exportation of s>’».«• I'.M or '..at.W».090 more of gold inay been lured before anything like a crisis will approach. By that time congress will' be again in session. What action congress will take in the matter is problematical, yet it seems more than prol-able that !h ■ administration will present some plan for .the retirement of the’ l i.ited States notes n<"v out ■ These aiuount to over s347..‘«OAOi)‘j, ahd their presence in .one currency is regarded by him as a constant picnhee to our financial stability. That some measure to this end will, be presented in Mr. Cleveland's message on tlie reconvening of eoneresS is very probaVlv. and it is thought that Mr. Carlisle is now working out a scheme, by which this volume of currency can' be retired without any serious financial disturbance. ■ - Srinxti ni Li'. HL, Sept. bi. —» The news that the heavy withdrawal of gobi from the treasury on Friday had reduced the gold surplus to a figure considerable under t?I(K),tKX),bJO caused the' banks of Springfield to make, an -offer on Saturday to the secretary of the treasury to furnish the government SItXXWO in gold in exchange for currency. The offer of the Springfield banks, is pure- , ly patroitie and no demand for a pre- ’ mium on the gold will be njffde. New York, s pt.

Becoming and Proper. Rgv. John Brown, of Haddington, the author of the self-interpreting Bible, was a man of singular bashful Boss, but the following story is almosb incredible. His courtship lasted seven - years. = Six years and a half had passed away and the gentleman had progressed no further than the first six days of his acquaintance with the lady. One day he decided that a step in advance must be made. ° "Janet,” he said one day, as they sat in solemn silence, "we've beep acquainted now six years and mair, and : I’ve ne’er gotten a kiss yet. D'ye think ■ I might take one, my bonnie lass?” "Just as you like. John, only be becoming and proper wi’ it.” "Surely, Janet; we’ll ask a blessjng." The blessing was asked, the kiss was taken, and the worthy divine, overpowered with the "blissful sensation, most rapturously exclaimed: "Heigh, lass, but it's gudel We'll re turn thanks.” Six months later the pious couple were married. —Chicago News.
