It is figured out that there is in circulation in the United States just about a round billion dollars in gold, or almost a third of a billion more than there was four years ago. The increase of gold in circulation has far exceeded that of population or volume of business. This is one fact that has done much to shut the mouths of the free-silver propagandists. J. A.

Estimates as to the population of the United States in 1900 have just been made by three experts, Assist ant Director of Census Wines figures oat that his bureau will find about 75,000,000 people in the United States, exclusive of Hawaii and of the territory gained as a result of the Spanish war, when the enumeration is made next year. The government actuary, J. S. McCoy, estimated that the number will be 77,676,000 Prof. H. S. Pritchett, superintendent of the coast survey, puts the number at 77,472,000, qualifying his calcula tion by saying that it leaves a margin of possible error of 250,000 either way. it win be noticed that there is only a slight difference between the estimates of the government s actu ary and of the superintendent of the coast survey, while each is in the neighborhood ot Z,oUU,UUU in excess of that of the census official. Even nis figures, however, allow for an in crease of about 12,500,000 in the country's population since 1890 This is equal to the aggregate popu lation of the United States in 1830 around the middle of Jackson's first term as president. It is nearly four times the total population of the country in 1790, at the- time of the first national census. It is five times the population of the thirteen colonies at the time of the declara tion of independence. There is a disposition among con servative statisticians to avoid high figures in the forecasts of the prob able population which will be found in the country a year hence. There are, of course, two causes for this. The financial convulsion of 1893, checked immigration, and probably cut down the natural increase from the inside. As the rations grow older the rate of increase in popula tion diminishes. Keeping these two considerations in mind, however, there is no" good reason to suppose that the aggregate inhabitants in 1900 will be below the 75,000,000 This figure, indeed, will represent a "very encouraging growth. No other country in the world shows a rate of population expansion anywhere near as great as this. When Benjamin Franklin long ago excited the in credulity of Europe by predicting that the great republic of the West, rhich was soon to come into being, would double in population every quarter ot a centnry his estimate was "very far from being as wild as the Old World supposed.

When this tube is in flamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect bearing, and when it Is en tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed for ever ; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucous sur faces.
