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
cou-heil, consisting of eight members,
formed themselves into a hand of forg
crs, and carried on 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
man In the world today. It would. In
deed. be difficult to suggest a man
whose name is more widely known.
The following story is a curious com
mentary on the value of fame: Dur
ing Kipling's illness, Henry James, the
American author, was one night driv- i
Ing home In a cab from his club In j
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 l ight," 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.

Against Clevelandism, Carllslelsm,

It Reaffirmed the Party Will Win.
In 1896 a large number of people
had become restless under, and dissat-
I iefied with, the management of these
commercial politicians who had con
trolled party organizations, and con
cluded to take matters into their own
hands. The Chicago convention, rep
resenting a great party, took that par
| ty out of the gambling arena of the
stock markets, and put it once more
on the high plane of public welfare.
With their eyes on the future, with the
voices of their ancestors and the pa
triots of '76 in their ears, and with the
weight of the heritage they should
leave to their children resting on their
hearts, they presented as issues funda
mental truths. As champion they sc
, lccted a statesman from the west, with
I clear brain and honest heart and de
| voted to the interests of the people,
j Since that time these professional is
| sue makers have had a dull market for
' their productions. Lately they have
been trying to persuade the allied
| forces of reform that a new set of prin
j ciples is needed. We have re-examined
j the construction of the Chicago pro
j duction and the material of which it is
made. It does not show evidence of
wear or indication of decay. It has in
\it life, power and purpose. Its ckam
i pion has been tried and has been
found to be true in purpose and intent.
We are not much impressed by any
reason advanced for laying aside the
platform of the standard-bearer. These
commercial agents have abandoned
the idea of a new construction and set
up a repair shop. They have been to
see Mr. Bryan to persuade him to give
his consent to their employment to
make a few trifling changes. In their
ignorance of the principles upon which
i the structure was builded, in utter mis
conception of the character and ability
of its architect, they advise the changes
that would destroy the structure. It
is time to remember that intellectual
fcrce, that motives, that moral respon
sibilities, are individual. There is no
intellectual power in a corporation.
The motives of every such organiza
tion are the motives of individuals.
The moral responsibility must be paid
upon the individuals. Make what legal
restrictions and limitations you can,
what good are the restrictions and lim
itations if the individuals that fur
l nish the intellect and the motives are
able to escape observation, retain what
they extort from their victims by the
aid of these monsters, and preserve
their standing among their fellow
men?—A. J. Van Vorhis.
NO DEAD ISSUES.
The American people have always
been confronted with political issues of
vital importance to a government
• hnscd upon popular sovereignty. Since
the beginning of the nation to the pres
ent day, not a single question con
cerning the people, or bearing upon
their welfare and proper manner of
! government, may bo said to have been
abandoned or cast out Into any fancied
Gehenna of dead, extinct issues. An
issue can only die, become extinct,
when n radical change in our form of
government makes it treason to broach
it. or impossible to maintain it.
The principles of human freedom,
equal rights and political liberty rest
upon so slender a foothold, so delicate
ly are they balanced in the scale of hu
man ambition and greed, that it be
hooves a free people to beware of be
ing caught napping when the bogie
man of imperialism comes prowling
about with the intent to subvert or un
dermine their liberties.
| Because a certain issue is not con
stantly reiterated is not a reason why
that issue has been abandoned, or even
substituted by other issues. National
autonomy, and the integrity of our na
tional existence upon the lines estab
lished in the constitution, which was
and is but the fulfillment of the princi
ples given to the world in the declara
tion of independence, arc issues not to
be frowned down by clownish com
i< all tics and covert sneers of derision.
Ihey are living Issues and draw with
them all other issues in any man
j ner pertaining to them.
The people know where the Demo
i cratic party stands on the silver ques
tion; they know that the Chicago plat
form enunciated a financial doctrine
incapable of being argued out of ex
istence because of its vital Importance
I to the welfare of the whole people,
and tL" fact that it is not a dead issue
is patent from the continued efforts of
\ the Republican party to keep alive the
. issue of the gold standard, with its
most radical and pernicious results.
Having established that financial tru
ism. it is assumed that the Democratic
party should become blind to all other
j issues, and forsake those which are
also of the greatest moment, and of the
1 most vital importance, inasmuch as
they are pressing upovt the people with
all the power of an administration
which assumes upon itself all of the
i prerogatives of government, to the ex
! elusion of its other co-ordinate
| branches.
! Whatever issues are of material in
terest to the welfare of the people are
within the province and policy of the
party of Jefferson, of Washington and
; Lincoln, and it purposes to include
those issues as living issues whether
sounded through a trumpet or implied
in its opposition to any and all meas
: ures foisted upon the people under the
| guise of loyalty to President McKin
ley or the Empress of India. Let all
men know and be advised, once for all.
that the Democratic party does not in
tend to abandon any issue of import
ance to the national and individual
welfare.
SHOCKING THE GOLD STANDARD
Every adverse wind that blows upon
the gold standard gives it a chill that
endangers its vitality. To mention
silver is to throw it into spasms call
ing for a ru6h of all sorts of physi
cians, even jesters, to restore it to life
and jubilation. Another blow is given
it from an unexpected adversary who
does not mention the bugbear of sil
ver. but makes it feel the same cold
chills.
Count von Posadowsky-Wehner, the
German minister of the interior be
came an open heretic in the presence
of Andrew D. White, U. S. Ambassador
at Berlin, and of other dignitaries of
the German empire, all of whom
agreed with him, at least, nobody dis
puted him.
"If this unterbilanz (meaning "bal
ance of trade") against Germany con
tinues, says he, "We shall have to drop
the gold standard." Here is a nice ad
mission. The gold standard then, is
not the creator of a balance of trade
in favor of the nation adopting it. It
certainly is not, in fact it is and al
ways has been the direct opposite. The
fact that the balance of trade has been
so enormously in favor of the United
States during the past two years, is
wholly due to our enormous produc
tions and not to the gold standard.
That it is not due to the gold standard
Is evident from the remarks of the
German count whose grievance arises
out of the fact that the gold standard
gives a balance of trade against Ger
many, and if it keeps on he will drop
it. The count's declaration was di
rected at the United States, and he de
sired some advantageous commercial
treaty which would equalize this bal
ance of trade, that is, give Germany
an advantage by reducing the balance
in our favor.
European financiers, as well as some
of our own, regard the enormous sum
of about six hundred millions of dol
lars, the annual balance of trade in
our favor, a very good thing for the
country, too much, in fact, for If it
be continued several years longer, it
will abßorb all the money in the
world. But when we investigate, it is
discovered that our balance of trade
is as fictitious as the quantity of our
circulating medium. In 189S-9, the
balance of trade in our favor was in
excess of six hundred and sixteen mil
lions of dollars in gold. As a matter
of fact, deducting from the amount of
gold actually received, the total
amount of our exports, there was only
about eighty millions balance, and that
was not all coined as the mint reports
show. It goes, some say, towards pay
ing interest on our indebtedness
abroad, expenses of Americans in En- |
rope, steamship passages, etc., etc. It
certainly never gets Into circulation,
for onr money stock, instead of in
creasing, is being constantly con
tracted, and our debts are increasing
faster than our output of gold and bal
ance of trade combined. The impe
rial minister of the German interior
is undoubtedly correct in his evident I
belief that the-dropping of the gold
standard would restore the balance of
trade in favor of Germany, a result
that would be experienced in every
producing nation in the world.
AGUINALDO'S PROPOSITION.
New York, Nov. 23.—A letter to the
World from its Hongkong correspond- 1
ent, under date of Oct. 19, gives a re
markable interview with Aguinaldo.
The interview, according to the corre
spondent, comes from an American
who has lived for years in the Philip
pines and has known Aguinaldo for a
long time. He has been through the
lines and has been two weeks with the
insurgent commander-in-chief.
This American is a business man
with several correspondents on the
New York Produce Exchange and
agent of one of the firms running a
line of steamers to Manila. For years
he was a Philippine agent of Russell
& Co., of Hongkong, San Francisco,
New York and Boston.
According to the interview Agui
naldo wants peace, and to get it he is
willing to repay the J20.000.000 which
the United States paid to Spain for tlKi
Philippines, and will consent to Ameft.
ican soldiers remaining in Manila till
the debt is canceled. He wants a re
public to consist of a president, con
gress and judiciary, the president to be
elected by the votes of the people, the
congress to be chosen in the same
manner from all the Philippine isl-'
ands; a judiciary to be appointed by
the president or by the senate; local
governments in all districts and cities
to be elected by the legal voters there
of; the American soldiery to be with
drawn (with some exceptions) from
the country; to satisfy the American!
people a subsidy on the receipts from
the customs and exports to pay the (
American government $20,000,000, the j
amount paid Spain; also the taxes of'
real estate and personal estates to be
dedicated to the same, and all to be
repaid in five years; American sol- j
diers (the number to be agreed upon)
to remain at Manila until this debt is
paid, then to be withdrawn from the
island.

SCENERY
Kow Painted Upon Tonjh 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
ident 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-lip" Is required
after they are- spread, but the system
is imenseful useful when a now 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 Gnlln a*. Weather Forecasters.
Prince Krapot.kin, in Nature, says
that on Aug. 26 while off Broadstairs,
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 war, sure to
come. The change then predicted then
occurred the following day. Mr. Ing
alls strengthens this forecast by a
statement in hi 3 Weather Lore: "The
arrival of sea gulls from the Solway
Firth to Holywood, Dumfriesshire, is
generally followed by a high wind ana
heavy wind from the southwest"

THE LIMIT IN LIFE INSURANCE.
In AH the. Companies of the World •
Man Might Get Perhaps S 10,000,000.
Several papers have published a
paragraph to the effect that the Prince
of Wales is insured for about £lO,-
000,000, a portion of the insurance
being for the benefit of creditors, und
a much larger portion in favor of per
sons neither Velated to him nor hav
ing any iuterest whatever in his Jiv
ing, Professor A. F. Harvey, the in
surance actuary, who is authority ou
all such matters, considers the state
ments ridiculous, and particularly the
one that Prince Albert is insured for
the benefit of people who have no in
surable iuterest in him.
"Up to about 125 years ago the
practice of taking out insurance on
the lives of Kings, Queens and others
in authority, where there was no
possible insurance iuterest, obtained
to a great extent," said the Professor
when his attention was called to the
paragraph. "The practice became so
general, scandalous and vicious that
in 1774 Parliament enacted a statute
(14 Geo. 3, c. 48), prohibiting abso
lutely all insurance in which there
was no interest to the beneficiary in
the life of the principal iu tho con
tract, and prohibiting the payment oi
money under a policy written to se
cure a debt beyond the actual sum
due. This law against wager or gam
bling policies was followed up in
France aud Germany and iu most of
the States of this country, aud has
since been rigidly enforced every
where."
The amount of life insurance car
ried by the Priuce of Wales has never
beeu made public, aud is probably
known to only a lew people. It is
evident, however, that the total is not
one-tenth of the sum named in the
paragraph referred to. The most
heavily insured man in the United
States is ex-Postmaster-General John
Wauamaker, of Philadelphia, and his
insurance amounts to only $2,025,000.
The word "only" applies hero be
cause of the comparison with $48,-
600,000, or, to be more accurate, $48,-
775,000, according to the present
market value here of $10,000,000. At
a meeting of the National Life Under
writers' Association in Philadelphia
four years ago Mr. Wauamaker stated
that one of the first things he did
after becoming of ago was to insure
his life. When Mr. Wauamaker ad
dressed the Association his life in
surance amounted to $1,525,000, and
all but $60,000 had beeu taken after
ho was fifty years of age.
According to an Eastern insurance
journal "the amount of life insurance
which cau be secured upon a single
life among the United States com
panies foots up $2,600,000." The
paper gives a tabulated list of forty
two old-line companies aud what pur
ports to be the limit of each. The
figures are correct in tho main, but
there are seme bad errors in the list.
Some of the companies insure for
more than the amounts credited to
them, but in every such case the com
pany reinsures a portion of the risk.
The figures in the table represent the
limits without such reinsurance. Of
course, there could he no reinsurance
on a persou that tocfic the limit in
every company. Legal reserve aud
stipulated premium companies that
are not usually classed as old-liners are
omitted from the table, as also assess
ment companies, fraternal organiza
tions and several industrial companies
that write very little, if any, ordinary
life insurance. Accident companies i
that pay death claims, but do not
write ordinary life insurance, are like
wise omitted. Inc.'udiug all these,
tho total life iusuruuee that a persou
j could get in the United States would
; probably still fall below $3,000,000.
j There are about 350 life insurance
I companies iu tho world, not couutiug
| American companies. Very few of
them insure for as much as $25,000
' and the average is not half that sum,
! but supposing it were $20,000 the
total would be 0n1y57,000,000, which,
j added to the American total, would
still make only about oue-lifth the sum
I the Prince of Wales is reported to be
j insured for.
A Itemuvkit hie Cliuvitv.
| An appeal lias appeared iu a Berlin
contemporary for a remarkable char
| ity. Some two hundred years ago,
j says the Jewish World, when the Ber
j liu community was still very small,
pious Jews founded a sooiety in con
nection with tho religions service
then held by mourners at break of
dawn. In order, however, to enable
the poor to observe "the seven days of
mourning for relatives with some de
gree of comfort, the following scheme
was devised and which is still, we be
lieve, in use in other towns besides
Berlin. Two boxes fitted with one
aud the same key were sent to the
house of the mourner. In the first
was a purse the mourner had to emp
ty. If in need he retained as much
of the money as he required; if in fair
circumstances he could put the money
in the second box, and even, if he
chose, augment thu sum from his
pocket. None but the administrative
committee had therefore an inkling
of who had given or who had taken.
For discretion, simplicity and trust
iu human goodness this Jewish char
ity caunot well he excelled.—Loudon

If silverware is kept clean it does not often have
to be polished. After using the silver it should always
be washed with a suds, made by dissolving some
shavings of Ivory Soap in warm water, then wiped
dry and rubbed lightly with a soft paper, a chamois
skin or a piece of flannel.
All highly-polished metal surfaces will retain their
polish much longer if this plan is followed and rubbing
with compounds avoided as much as possible.

Lights Kill the lllrda.
Scarcely a morning passes but •
quite a number of birds, large and
small, are picked up in the courtyard i
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
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 fore#
against the metal figure while blinded
by the intense light as to kill them
selves.—Philadelphia Inquirer,
To Stop Note IHeetlitig.
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 sufTerer
to breathe: the blood will fill the space
between the tub 3 and the nose, and
will very soon coagulate and cease to
Bow."

It 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.
