ease that science has been able to cure in all
its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a con
stitutional disease, requires a constitutional
treatment.. Hall's Catarrh t ure is taken inter
nally, acting directly upon the blood and mu

ing the foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the con
stitution and assisting nature in doing its
work. The proprietors have so much laith in
its curat ve powers that they offer One Hun

Municipal Novelty.
There Is a decidedly humorous side
which occasionally comes to light in
connection with the undertakings of
municipal corporations, but the action
of the enterprising city fathers of a
small Hungarian town is certainly
unique. The mayor and whole town
council, consisting of eight members,
formed themselves Into a band of forg
ers, and carried ou a thriving business
in the town hall, manufacturing paper
notes current in Austria, which they
circulated pretty extensively. A work
shop, well fitted with the necessary
Implements, was fixed up in a cellar
of the town hall, and they actually set
policemen to guard the door while they
were at work. This remarkable state
of affairs existed for over a couple of
years, when the business was detected,
the mayor and councillors fighting like
professional brigands on being ar
rested.
Didn't Know Kipling.
Mr. Howells has lately spoken of
Rudyard Kipling as the most famous

whose name is more widely known.
The following story is a curious com
mentary on the value of fame: Dur
ing Kipling' 3 Illness, Henry James, the
American author, was one night driv
ing home in a cab from his club In
London. The news had just come that
the crisis was past and the great writer
was on the road to recovery. As he
stepped out on the sidewalk, Mr. James
handed the paper he had bought to the
cabman. "Kipling's all right," he said.
The cabman took the paper and leaned
down with a puzzled look on his face.
"I don't seem to know the name o' the
'oss!" he said. —St. Louis Republic.

GREAT MONEY TRUST.
FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS
TIGHTENING THE COILS
I'lißt llavo Already Made the Producing
Classes of the United States the Vic
tims of a System of Servitude Worse
Than Chattel Slavery.
The greatest peril to a government
by the people outside of imperialism
are the combinations for a monopoly
of the banking and carrying trade of
the country. All the other trusts, gi
gantic as may be their proportions,
are small and insignificant when com
pared with a monopoly of the money
of a country, and a monopoly of the
carriage of goods and passengers. The
haute financiers of the purlieus of Wall
street have been gradually consolidat
ing the money institutions they con
trol and have effected a combination of
all the banks of Manhattan, in good
standing, into what is known as the
Clearing House association. In addi
tion to the original objects of this
combination it has enlarged its func
tions so that they issue a species of
money, known as clearing house cer
tificates, to evade the rule making It
necessary to keep on hand at least 25
per cent of their liabilities. This Issue
of clearing house certificates has only,
so far, been attempted In times of
panic, such as in 1893. It is now pro
posed by the bankers that the law be
extended to allow them to Issue bank
currency based on their assets. It is
also proposed to have a national clear
ing house, and every merchant and all
those who ask credit are to be re
quired to list with his banker his
assets, as a basis upon which loans
may be made to him. It has also been
proposed to establish a central bank,
with enormous capital, with branches
in all the principal cities. It is also
proposed to retire the greenbacks, and
if the consent of congress can be ob
tained, to allow the issue of bank cur
rency on bank assets, to retire the
present national bank currency based
on United States bonds, and if that
can not be at once attained, to allow
the full face value of the bonds to be
issued, and also to reduce the govern
ment charges for the same. The banks
will also ask congress to make gold
only the money of contract and ulti
mate redemption. If these changes in
our currency laws are made by con
gress, the consolidation of the banking
business will go on apace and a money
trust will be a combination of the near
future.
It is well known that the financiers
and bankers of the country are large
ly interested in stocks and bonds; they
own a great volume, and in making
loans, largely hold them as security.
Railroad stocks and bonds form the
greater part of these, and to keep
track of the market fluctuations a
stock ticker may be found in most of
the rooms of the presidents of these in
stitutions, or in close proximity there
to. This has begot a craze for stock
gambling, which pervades all financial
circles, down to the clerks, and It is
said even the messenger boys of Man
hattan are infected.
To combine these two gigantic in
stitutions—the banks and the rail
roads—is the dream of the financiers;
they are now closely allied, and to
complete their power to fleece the peo
ple, combination is necessary.—Jeffer
sonian Democrat.
What Is Needed.
Secretary Root is surrounding the
war department with as much secrecy
as though the nation were at war with
a formidable foreign power. This se
crecy, however, is solely directed at
keeping facts of disgraceful manage
ment from the public. The latest ex
ample is the suppression of a stinging
report relative to the bringing home of
several hundred sick and wounded sol
diers on the hospital transport ship
Tartar. The transport was fearfully
overcrowded, the medical staff both in
sufficient and incompetent. These
helpless sufferers lay for days with
out attention and died in filth and
misery by the score, yet all this time
the officers aboard the transport occu
pied spacious quarters and were pro
vided with every luxury.
These are the facts which Secretary
Root says the public has no business
with and which he is endeavoring to
suppress. Yet it is on such facts as
these that the public will have to re
cord its verdict in the presidential
election.
It is only by a suppression of the
facts that the administration can hope
to win next year. To aid it in this
nefarious purpose the administration
can rely on the great telegraphic press
associations and nearly every great
metropolitan daily of the north. The
sole reliance of the country then Is
on the weekly press of the Democratic
party, which alone has been able to
withstand corporate and capitalistic
influences.
Divided Republican Council*.
Lafayette (Ind.) Journal: If ever
the Republicans had a big job on their
hands they will have It when congress
meets. It Is an essential part of their
program that the administration's for
eign policy be upheld. It will be hope
less to expect anything for McKinley
In the presidential campaign unless
that can be done. It Is well known
that there are strong influences in the
Republican party and a pretty nearly
united strength in the Democratic
party opposed to such an Indorsement.
Meantime the Democrats have the
advantage If they can but maintain
the presjnt feeling of harmony in the
party. And if they can reconcile such
minor differences as are known to ex
ist they will but gain an added ad
vantage over the enemy. The Demo
crats are right The oollcv of impe-
rialism is wrong. The president de
serves the defeat that certainly awaits
him. And the thing for all men In the
Democratic party to do Is to get to
gether. There will be contentions In
the other side c*■ the house. Let them
have a monopoly of it.
OUR FOREI3N COMMERCE
From the National Rural: I want
to make a vigorous protest against his
way of stating the condition of our
foreign trade. When at that great
iron center, Joliet, 111., he boastfully
and truthfully said, as reported in one
of our leading Chicago newspapers:
"For the first time in' our history, we
sent more American manufactured
products abroad than we buy abroad."
Then ha adds: "The balance of trade
is, therefore. In our favor, and It is
paid in gold." I fear this last state
ment is misleading to many people
who may read It. I have such confi
dence in the honor of President Mc-
Kinley that doubtless he would admit
that the following statement bearing
on this Issue would be a more explicit
one, and at the same time I do not
think he would question one word, as
I quote only from offiolal reports pub
lished under his own administration.
Let us examine the figures.
During the fiscal year ending June
30, 1898, the balance of foreign trade
in merchandise, in our favor,was $615,-
324,791, and for the year 1898-99 It
was $530,088,565. The balance of trade
in our favor, In silver, for 1897-98 wae
$24,180,658, while for 1898-99 It was
$25,643,909, thus making for merchan
dise alone $1,145,413,356, and for sil
ver, which In this case was nearly all
merchandise, it was $49,834,567, or a
total of $1,195,237,921. The balance of
gold received In 1897-98 was $104,985,-
283, while for 1898-99 it was $51,432.-
517, making the total amount of gold
received as a balance on our foreign
commerce for these two fiscal years
$156,417,800. Putting the3e official fig
ures in round numbers, It can be seen
that the value of the merchandise and
silver we exported for these two fiscal
years exceeded what we Imported by
$1,195,000,000, and the entire balance
of gold that reached us, as officially re
ported, as having been paid us and
brought here, was only $156,417,800.
This would leave a balance due us of
nearly $1,039,000,000. Please note that
a large proportion of this vast sum
represents the products of American
labor sold at decidedly unremunerative
prices. If this vast business had been
closed up at the end of these two won
derfully active years, this amount
would have to be settled on the so
called "existing gold standard."
His statement, "It is paid In gold,"
should be received with more consid
eration than Is generally given to the
question of how we make the settle
ments of our Immense foreign com
merce. A disposition on the part of
those engaged in the task of securing
the so-called gold standard on this
nation tends to cause them to impress
on the minds of our people that we
have enodfeh gold in the world, and
that plenty of it is coming our way, so
that we can dispense with silver as
one of our two agents of valuation,
for full legal debt paying. Please spe
cially remember all the gold that is
officially reported to have been re
ceived as our balance, In these two
fiscal years, from foreigners, was the
$156,417,800. The remainder of this
vast sum due us was expended in liq
uidating the Interest due to foreign
ers, paying foreign debts, lifting our
bonds and mortgages, paying the ex
penses of our travelers abroad, and
paying foreign ship-owners for carry
ing our freight and passengers.
Teddy a Political Rough Rider.
From the Atlanta Constitution: Am
a spellbinder Teddy Roosevelt seems
to be responsible for some curious re
sults. He was called into Maryland by
the Republicans to arouse the patrlotin
enthusiasm of the masses, and there
can be no doubt that the campaign
he made will be long remembered by
the Republican leaders. He went into
the mining regions and displayed his
fervid eloquence. In consequence, ap
parently, there was a landslide to the
Democratic party. He went into Wash
ington county and forthwith Washing
ton county became Democratic. He
went to Frederick and a Republican
majority of 1,000 disappears and is re
placed by a Democratic majority.
Then, as a climax to his tour, he
went to Baltimore and stirred up the
enthusiasm of the patriots to such an
extent that the city elects twenty
Democrats to the general assembly and
gives an old-fashioned majority to the
state and local ticket.
Such Is the result of political rough
riding. We think the Democrats next
year could well afford to employ Teddy
to rough-ride it over the country mak
ing political speeches.
What I
The annual report of the postofflco
department shows an increase in post
offices during the year from 72,976 to
74,384. Receipts, $95,021,384; expendi
tures, $101,632,160, leaving a deficit for
the past year of $6,610,776. Upon this
showing, the auditor asks for an in
crease of thirty clerks. A deficit Is a
curious reason for asking an increase
of expenditures. Of the total expendi
tures, the railroad companies were paid
$54,423,058, of which sum $1,629,749 was
paid for transporting foreign mails.

SCENERY
Now Painted Upon Tough Brown Paper
for Portability.
Except as regards the part that
mechanism plays, the scenic artists of
Italy are the best in the world, as ef
fective painters, and the fact is so well
recognized in these days of almost all
scenery being done by contract —a res-
Vent scenic artist is getting to be a
rarity—that a great trade of this sort
has sprung up between the painters of
Italy and the managers everywhere.
And this is particularly so as regards
companies that come to America. So
heavy has been the cost of transport
ing tons of scenery, and so exacting
have the customs officials been of late
years, that the generality of managers
at one time found it cheaper to have
new scenes painted after they arrived.
But the Italian system has largely
done away with all this, for it includes
the painting of the scenery on large
sheets of a peculiarly tough sort of
brown paper, these being numbered
and joined together with unerring ac
curacy. A recent grand opera produc
tion in this country depended scenic
ally upon these sheets of paper alone,
and not even the oldest playgoer in
the house could distinguish any pecu
liarity. Of course, the sheets are
spread upon canvas in the ordinary
way, and a "toucher-up" is required
after they are spread, but the system
is imenseful useful when a new pro
duction is taken from one capital to
another at a great distance, and the
Italian artists are sending their sheets
to managers all over the world.

Sea Galls a.. Weather Forecasters.
Prince Krapotkin, in Nature, says
that on Aug. 26 while off Broadstalrs,
he noticed several flocks of gulls flying
along the coast toward Dover. The
wind was then and had been through
out August from the northeast, but an
old fisherman remarked that the gulls
were moving to the south coast to meet
a southwest wind, which was sure to
come. The change then predicted then
occurred the following day. Mr. Ing
alls strengthens this forecast by a
statement in his Weather Lore: "The
arrival of sea gulls from the Solway
Firth to Holywood, Dumfriesshire, is
generally followed by a high wind and
heavy wind from t.he aoiit.hwp.st."

SHE CARRIED NAPOLEON.
Where Lies the Craft That Played a Great
Part In French History.
Below the waters of Monterey Bay,
California, liea a sunken craft that
once helped to make history. She is
the Natalie, which in 1815 carried
Napoleon back to France from Elba,
and set the kinge of nil Europe trem.
bling again upon their thrones.
The brigautiue Inconstant, as she
was then called, was selected because
of her swiftness to carry Napoleon
hack to France. From the 22d to the
25th of February, 1815, she cruised
on and off Elba, watching for a signal.
On the night of the 25th a beacon
light burned on the shore. An hour
later Napoleon was on deck. Three
days later he landed at Cannes.
What happened to Napoleon, his
triumphal progress through Franoe,
the flight of the Bourbons, the Hun
dred Days, Waterloo, every one
knows.
In 1843 her name changed to the
Natalie; she was doing service as o
customs cruiser for the Mexican Gov
ernment.
One night in March all the ward
room officers of the Natalie were
ashore in Monterey, then the gay
capital of Spanish California, enjoy*
ing a fandango at the Bal d'Oro, or
Golden Ball, a very famous resort.
Discipline in the Mexican service was
lax; when the officers were well away
all the sailors went ashore, leaving
the Natalie in gathering storm and fog
to look ont for herself.
When the morning broke not a spar
of the Natalie was left above water.
Her rudder washed ashore last year,
and is preserved in a Monterey fish
market. The Natalie was teak-built
and monnted a bronze swivel gun.
Her upper works came pretty near the
snrface and still constitute a danger to
navigation. In still water and at low
tide she can sometimes be seen with
the aid of a water-glass. If the ex
pense shonld be met by any historical
sooiety, the Natalie could easily be
raised, even to-day, as an occarionsl
diver has visited her and she is hold
ing together well, being heavily built
with copper bolts.—San Francisco
Call.

The Ellll of Football.
The proprietor of a certain "sports
emporium" toward the close of last
season had a good many footballs left
on his hands. These he decided to
clear "at greatly rednoed prioes."
He filled his window with footballs of
every shape, size and quality. Be
fore he had finished ho was called
away, and turning to a young lady as
sistant, he instructed her to affix tile
price of each football in plain figures.
The young lady did so, and when
her employer returned some little
time later a wonderful sight awaited
him. Most of tho footballs looked as
if they had been taking part in a very
rough match, while the once beauti
ful pyramid of balls in the centre of
the window was now a shapeless mass.
"Here, Miss B ," roared the
tradesman, "what on earth's the mat

"Don't know, sir," was the reply,
"unless it's the pins, sir!" She had
pinned the price tickets on to them,

Light, Kill the Bird,.
Scarcely a morning passes but ■
quite a number of birds, large and
small, are picked up in the courtyard ;
of the city hall In more or less injured
condition. Some dying, some dead.
They are birds usually found some dis
tance away In the country. Linnets,
finches, yellow birds, even occasionally
blackbirds, robins and larks. It is sup
posed that they are attracted by the
brilliant electric lights around the base j
of the Penn statue. It is a well-known
fact that at the foot of the statue of
liberty in New York harbor hundreds
of birds are picked up every year.
They have flown with such force j
against the metal figure while blinded
by the intense light as to kill them
selves. —Philadelphia Inquirer.
To Stop Nose IMecdluf.
Bleeding of the nose is often very
difficult to stop, but the efficacy of the
following method is vouched for by a
correspondent of the New York Times.
The writer says: "Cut some blotting
paper about an inch square, roll It
about the size of a lead pencil, and
put It up the nostril that is bleeding.
The hollow in it will allow the sufferer
to breathe; the blood will fill the space
between the tube and the nose, and
will very soon coagulate and cease to
flow."
Deaaty Is Blood Deep.
Clean blood means a clean Bkin. No
beauty without it. Cascarets, Candy Cathar
tic clean your blood and keep it clean, by
stirring up the lazy liver and driving all im
purities from the body. Begin to day to
Danish pimples, boils, blotches, blackheads,
and that sickly bilious complexion by taking
Cascarets,—beauty for ten cents. All drug
gists, satisfaction guaranteed, 10c, 25c, 50c.
Jt is not generally known that the
remains of all the Czars of Russia since
Peter the Great, lie in a memorial
chapel built on one of the islands of the
Neva. All the cenotaphs are exactly
alike, each being a block of white
marble, without any decoration what
ever.
The Glasgow Town Council has
awarded a contract for two eleceric
traction engines to an American com
pany solely on the ground of an earlier
delivery than could be promised in
Great Britain.
