Every possi ble effort shoald be made to defeat tbe measure to delay it in any event. We can better afford a few months of. an certainly than four years of general adversity, suffering and distress. Under the most favorable circumstances, the Wilson bill, if it become a law, cannot be changed until the summer of 1897. . We earnestly recommend that you will urge United States senators, irrespective of party, to defeat or by every parlia mentary method delay the passage of this measure. On November Cth, the people will have an opportunity to Bpeak their ver dict must be awaited. There has been a good deal said, and properly, about the profit made by the government in coining dollars out of 75 cents' ' worth of silver, more or less. But how about tbe nic.kel 5-cent pieces? It is said that these pretty coins cost the United States just about a third of a cent each, and are issued for 5 cents, or .fifteen times their value a profit of :about 1,400-per cent. - Made up on that .ratio the silver dollar would contain be tween 7 and 8 ceats' worth of silver. Oov. Waite's foolish military display should convince all that it is dangerous to place men of his stamp in the. gov ernor's chair. "' His now famous state ment concerning horses wading in blood to their bridles is but a' reflex of his natural character. He is an anarchist, pure and simple, but has perhaps' kept his convictions in the background here- toiore. xt a disastrous civil war aoes .not break out in Colorado before Gov. "Waite's term of office expires, it will not be his fault. It is always best to be reasonable: The sheriff is being cursed by several peri-sons for doing only the duty he is sworn to perform. He has been ordered to "collect the taxes for 1893 by the county "commissioners' court, and be cannot evade this duty. Yet the sheriff is being unreasonably made the object of attack, both by person and by letter, against collecting these taxes. If any fault is to be found', it should be di rected to the propei source the 'county commissioners and not to the sheriff, who is obliged to obey their orders. According to a Washington dispatch, should the Bland seigniorage bill, which passed both houses, become a law,' the coinage of $55,000,000 of silver bullion will have to be done at the mints of Philadelphia, San Francisco and New Orleans, the only mints in operation. The Philadelphia mint could turn out $1,000,000 per month, the San Francisco mint about tbe same, and the New Or leans mint $800,000. The San Francisco mint, however, has only $16,000,000 bullion on hand, and the. New Orleans saint $9,500,000, so that after the supply of these mints is exhausted the remain ing $30,000,000 would have to be coined at Philadelphia. The whole time, there fore, necessary to coin the seigniorage is approximately two years and . two months. CURRENT PRESS COMMENT. The schooner loaded with dynamite, adrift on the Atlantic without a crew, is prepared to shock anything it comes in contact with. Last week one of our most- enterpris ing merchants said "the whole country is looking up." Well, why shouldn't it look up? She is flat on her back. When Galusha A. Grow entered on political life' Lincoln and Sherman were country lawyers, Grant an obscure cap- tain on the Pacific coast, and Garfield a mule-driver on the Erie canal. He saw . Clay and Webster in their old age, and Sumner and Everett in their prime. He will be seventy years old next August. The revolution in Brazil is ended. De Gama Monday abandoned his own ship and took refuge-in a "Portuguese man of war." It was the bloodiest revolution ever fought to a glorious close in the newspapers ot America, lie Gama was struck in the side by a dinner plate last winter, and the heaviest gun of the in eurgenta rhis mouth has been spiked ever since. The revolt cost the United States ten thousand gallons of printer's , ink, and the Brazilians some awfully . bard feelings . towards each other.. Glacier. - THE SOLDIER NUN. A Kemarkabla ' Instance of Fern, inine Courage. DlSfnlseA la Doublet and Boh tn Tonus; Spanish Maiden Meets and. Tan quishes a Man In a Duel. A famous heroine in her way was Catalina de Erauso, still remembered vaguely as the "Spanish feoldier nun, She left memoirs U-hich have been translated or summarized or "romaaci- lied' . in most European tongues. The truth of them ' has been disputed, but the writer points out that, upon the other hand, popes and king's, nobles and servants accepted every word while evidence remained to support or question the statements, says the Phil adelphia Telegraph. Catalina ran away from a nurjnery in San Sebastian at the age of fifteen, transformed, her conventual habili ments into doublets and hose,, and found employment as a pape in the household of a noble at Valladolid. Driven from this refuge by the appear ance of .her father who had no sus picion, nevertheless she joined an ex pedition sailing' for Peru under charire of Ferdinand de Cordova. Her ship was wrecKea on "ita and she alone re fused to desert the captain, who stood by his vessel. Catalina then built a little raft, broke open the treasure chest, took as much gold as she could carry and set off for the shore, but the. captain was drowned embarking. She reached the town and accepted an en gagement as manager to the tailor who made her new clothes. Complica tions of business and passion for a great lady fell in love at sight led to a first duel, in which she killed her man promptly. The great lady smug gled her out of prison, but Catalina found it necessary to repay this service by pushing the dame downstairs, prob ably breaking ber neck. Then she jumped into a boat, put to sea,, and was picked up by a Spanish vessel bound far Concepcion.' - At this place her brother was secre tary to the governor, and he, all un conscious of. the relationship, got her a commission in the army. Very soon afterward she distinguished herself in an engagement, and for twelve Vears ranked as one of the most brilliant of ficers of the Spanish service livintr mostly with her brother, but keeping the secret. This happy time came to an end in a midnight duel, when she killed a man unknown, who proved to be this same brother. Flying- for life once more, Catalina crossed the Andes. All her companions perished, but she reached Tucuman after terrible adven tures. Another love affair, all on one side, and another fatal duel brought her literally to the gallows, but with the rope around her neck she escaped. Traveling on to Cuzco, she joined an Alcalde with a pretty wife and a gen tleman, his friends. In a very few days Catalina perceived that these two had an understanding. The Alcalde perceived it also and took an oppor tunity to murder his faithless friend. He would have murdered his wife, but Catalina snatched her to the saddle and rode furiously for Cuzco. The Alcalde pursuing, she ran him throug-h. but received a desperate wound. The fugitives got safely to the bishop's palace. Catalina knew, however, that her secret must be discovered ' now. She had just strength-enough to reveal it to the bishop before fainting. The worthy man reported the whole story to the king, who sent orders that Cata lina should be dispatched by the next ship. All Spain declared for the hero ine. At her arrival Count Olivarez him self, the prime minister, met her; the king kissed her; the pope sent for and forgave her and Velasquez painted her portrait. - HAD THE VINEGAR HABIT. Woman's Vanity 1'ltlmately Cost Her Life by Slow Poison. v "I once had a patient," said a Roch ester (N. Y.) physican to a St. Louis reporter, "who poisoned herself with vinegar. ' "I was never a burning and shining light in the medical profession, and hence it is not surprising that the case baffled my investigation for a year, though I have the consolation of knowing that four eminent physicians who were called in for consultation at tributed the lady's evident breaking up to four different causes, none of them remotely Connected With the real one. The'chief symptom was lassitude and deathly whiteness, and -the lady, who had no other - companion but an ignorant, though, faithful, colored at tendant, finally died before reaching her thirtieth year. . "Subsequent investigation proved that she was a vinegar fiend, and that, while ' refusing food of every descrip tion, she was drinking large quantities of .vinegar. As the habit grew upon her she secured stronger grades, until finally she was drinking acetic acid but very slightly diluted. There are cases on record of persons who have been poisoned by overdoses of vinegar, taken to improve the complexion, but this is the only case I ever heard of anyone acquiring a vinegar habit and pursuing it steadily until it caused death." - Growing Land. Enterprising men have a way of growing land along the marshy shores of Delaware bay. The plan is to cut the dikes and let the tide rise and fall for a course of years over a considers ble area including some upland. It is found after awhile that the dikes may be removed considerably out toward the low tide line, and that many acres of arable land have been gained at small -cost. Marsh companies usually exist for the purpose' of cooperation in such work, and there are many quar rels over the land of men that refuse to join the company in making a tern- parary sacrifice of upland for the pur pose of reclaiming submerged marsh. The land thus reclaimed is extremely fertile, but it usually yields a crop of malarial fevers when first brought un der cultivation. ' . -. Whales In the North Pacific. The whale is destined to disappear from the JSorth l'acinc -much more speedily than he was driven from the eastern approaches to the Arctic: The Whale fleet sailing out of the port of ban Francisco last - year caught in the Arctic regions no. less than three hundred and fifty -three whales. The . product of last season's catch would have been represented by about two million dollars had prices remained as they were about three years . ago. When one small steamer takes sixty two whales in a single season, and a still smaller one kills sixty-four, there is a striking illustration of what steam is doing for the extermination of the whale in the Pacific. There will be no restriction. The whale fishery by sail ing vessels has for some time been un profitable. What the sailing craft could not do. in a lifetime of years the steam whaler will pretty effectually accomplish in a verv few vears. When Baby was sick, we gave her Gastoria. When she was a Child, she cried for Castoria. When she became Silas, she clung to Castoria. When she had Children, she gave them Castoria. Vox County Treasurer.
