One of the last acts of Minister Kas
son before he gave place to Minister
Pendleton at iSerlin, was to send to
the State Department a debt statement
of the various rations of Europe as
recently published there. It makes a
very interesting showing when com
pared with the debt of this country,
which some people suppose to bo very
large. Our debt, as everybody knnows,
is a trifle less than $1,500,000,000.
According to Minister Kasson's state
ment, Austria's debt is i 750,000,000.
Italy's 32,250,000,000, Russia's a little
over S3,0uO,O00,0'JO, England's over
83,500,000,000, and that of France
more than 5,50,000,000, making her
debt per head i 128, or more than five
times as much for each individual as is
the debt in the United States.

Congressman llarclay Henley paid
the following triimte to l'resident
Cleveland in his great speech delivered
at the ( I rand Opera House, San Fran
cisco, on the evening of August 11th,
the occasion being a monster reception
tendered him by tho unterrilied anti
monopoly Democracy of California, on
his return from Washington:
"And let no man be disturbed about
this administration. I weigh well inv
words and speak iu terms of moder
ation when I bay that if ever a man
sat in the Presidential chair who be
lieved iu the people, was of tho people,
whoso heart was tilled with a generous
and n.finly trust in them, and whose
purpose, determined and unshaken, was
to exercise the functions of his great
ollice to promote their prosperity and
well being, that man is (3 rover Cleve
land. I believe there is ono thing in
refereneo to which I have some apti
tude. I think I can. os it were, 'size'
a man up pretty well if I have a
chance. I have exercised that gift on
your President. I bid you note it and
see if timo does not convince you of
the possession by him in a marked and
lofty degree of tlio following qualities:
A sense of justice that instinctively
detects, overtakes and heats down
wrong; an honesty that the wealth and
power of the world cannot shake, and
which will bo found savagely aggres
sive; a zeal and industry in tho pub
lic service that never Hags; a strength
of character and a hearing that im
presses with its sturdy manhood all
who are brought near him; and, deco
rating and adorning these qualities, a
kindness of heart that will never fail
in a proper case to yield a responsive
throb to an appeal for sympathy.
Had Lois of Fun.
Little Jimmy Jones, aged 7 years,
came running home crying and spitting
blood and teeth out of his mouth, while
his lips were black and burned and
swollen.
"Oh, mercy I Is my boy killed?"
shrieked tho agonized mother.
A hasty examination revealed the
fact that most of her hoy was ut home,
and that his life and health wero also
in tho vicinity.
"Stop your noise!" she commanded;
"you are not much hurt. Tell mo all
about it, and mind that you tell tho
truth."
"Me and Tommy Toodles," said the
boy between sobs, "wus playin' in the
stable, when my holler tooth com
menced to achin', and Tommy said he
could cure it. He put some bluck
powder iu my tooth and touched it o(T
with a match."
"Didn't you have any nioro sense
than to let him blow your tooth out
with gunpowder?" asked Mra Jones,
severely.
"Tommy said it wouldn't hurt, and
we'd have lots of fun, said Jimmy,
brightening up and attempting to
laugh.
"It was awful funny wasn't it?
to have your hiouth burned and your
teeth blown out," said tho mother,
ironically. "Tommy hud all the fun."
"No, ho didn't, mama. I lost all
my teeth, I guess; hut you orter to see
Tommy! Two of my teeth is stickin'
in his nose, und one of his ears is clean

The Mining World notes a rcmarkn
bio case of dnst explosion in Germany.
A sack of flour, fulling down stairs,
opened and scattered the contents
in a cloud through the lower room,
where a burning gas tlame set lire to
the dust, causing an explosion which
lifted purt of the roof of! tho mill and
broko almost all the windows. There
can be doubt that the majority of dust
explosions are, like mine disasters, due
to open lights, and as this danger can
be practically avoi led by the use of
incandescent electric lights, there seems
to be no valid reason why it should
not bo introduced more generally.
A Western citizen who had hem
worsted in a fight was told that he
could collect damages. "I did collect
damages," he replied mournfully. "I
collected everything but a piece of my
left ear and two front teeth; I couldn't

On one occasion a gentlemanly look
ing person called and expressed a fear
that ho had inclosed two letters in
wrong envelopes, and that all Id's pros
pects in life depended' on. his having
his letters back, and correcting the mis
take, inasmuch as they revealed plans
which he hd adopted to iave two mer
cantile houses in the samojine of busi
ness, whose interests clashed in every
point. A similar blunder occurred in
a moro delicato affair, whii a young
lady was most urgent to have her let
ters returned, as sho had accepted the
wrong oiler of marriage, The local
postmaster was unable to resist her
earnest entreaties, nnd thus prevented
a painful catastrophe. J5ut a whole
romance might bo writteu or. tho fol
lowing incident: A young lady who
had been engaged to a prosperous man
ufacturer, was informed a few days be
fore the marriage was fixed for, that
the firm was insolvent, Not a moment
was to be lost, and a letter was written
and posted, breaking tho engagement;
when, in two hours, it was discovered
that the report was entirely unfounded.
'1 he report continues: "The daught?r
with her parents rushed to tho post
ollice, nnd no words can, describe tho
scene tho appeals, the tears, the
wringing of hands, the united entreaties
of tho family to have tho fatal letter
restored, but alas! all was vain, the
rule admitted of no exception." The

rntrhlns Salmon in Japan!
Japan must bo tho salmon 6sher'l
paradise. Professor Milne, of earth
quake celebrity, has recently visited
tho Kurtlo islands, which stretch be
tween Japan and Siberia, with the ob
ject of studying the volcanoes there.
He sailed around tho island of Iturup,
which is about 713 miles long by 80
broad, and which is inhabited here and
there along tho coast by Ainos, who
are engaged iu fishing during the sea
son. Here is his description of tho
abundanco of fish: "Tho fish which
are caught aro salmon and- salmon
trout. These exist in such numbers
during the Summer and Autumn sea
son that their fins sticking out of the
water near the entrances to the rivers
look liko tangled masses of kelp, while
up the rivers it is but littlo exagger
ation to say that tho pools are mixtures
of fish and water. With a rifle bullet
you may pierce four or five at a single
shot. The shingle shoals aro often
covered with dead fish, which in their
struggle for existenco havo become so
weak that, having oncn run themselves
ashore, they aro' unable to return to
deeper water. A sirgle haul of a small
seine brought to land a huge heap of
fish, varying in weight from four to
twenty pounds, the number of which
we roughly estiinuted at 5,000."
Secretary Lamar has set at rest by
an open letter the rumors to the effect
that ho was angry with the civil ser
vice commissioners for alleged slights
to him, and has further shown that he
means faithfully to enforce the law in
tho Department of tho Interior. One
by one the hopes of the ofiiee seeker
prove to bii broken reck It has be
come) quite evident by this timo to
most people that the Administration's
professions with regard to civil service
reform meant something. No case baa
yet been shown of violation of the law,
and though appointments havo Wn
made that aro not defensible, on the
wholo the record has been good. There
have been fewer removals from offic
niado by President Cleveland, though
ho is a Democrat succeeding a Repub
lican, than were made iu the Haine tin
by CJarlield, who was a Republican suc
ceeding a Republican, and has ud
strong professions of intentions to re
form the service, N. Y. Examiner
A man having built a large lioussl
