KILL THE WILSON BILL.
The hard times of the past year will
foe greatly increased by the passage 'of
tbe infamous WilBon bill. 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..

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.
