INEVITABLE Fit EE COINAGE.
From the Salt Lake Tribune.
Silver has advanced a penny. If it
will do that each day for forty-four
days the silver question wli be settled
There is no reason wby1N ninld not do
that every day for forty aHUrdajs. Had
oongress passed the Dill last winter,
and had the president signed it, silver
would have been advanced ii cents
now. J. be seoretdry of tbe treasury
would have been under no anxiety.
Business would have been back in its
normal state. Tbere would have been
ample means for investment to be ob
tained at fair rates. Prices would have
advanced until there would bare been
hope in every producer's heart. Where
four men are at work now, five men
would have been at work. It wonld
bave been like finding a new gold field
with 81,500,000,000 in it. If we never
had had any silver in America, and
could, the news be given to our people
that away off on tbo co 'St of Africa or
Madagascar, even amid tbe frosts of
Alaska, a new silver field bas been dis
covered, out of wbicb 81,500,000,000
oould. in four or five years, be mined,
think what a rush there would be to
them. Yet when tbe proposition is
made to the governments of the world
to reverse their sinister and foolish
legislation and to restore silver to its
old status, everyone of them up to date,
recoiled before tbe proposition, and
still, instead of being five or six or
eight years working out that field, this
legislation would add to the treasure of
the world just that much. We mean it
would add to the money treasure jtist
that much, and on all tbe property in
tbe world tbere would be an inorease of
10 per cent. It passetb all understand
ing that a nation can be so blind; that
the statesmen here, there and every
where oannot see at a glanoe what that
legislation would be to the world, and
it is the more marvelous because the
world is now confronted by strikes and
apprehension everywhere.
Bankers continue to board op tbeir

J PORTRAITS OF COLUMBUS. '
They Are Almost as Numerous as th
-1 ' Sands by the 8emsbore.
The numerous portraits of Columbus,
presenting such wide extremes of ap
pearance as to seem absurd, yet have
enough features in common to provide
good material for creating a mental pic
ture of Columbus. In person he was
tall and shapely, long-faced and
aquiline and had very pale gray eyes.
In early life his complexion was very
fine.
In the generally accepted historical
pictures he is represented as possessed
of mustache and pointed beard.
At thirty his hair was quite gray. He
was temperate in eating, drinking and
dress, and so strict in religious matters

that for fasting and saying all divine
offices, he might be thought professor
in some religious order.
Notwithstanding all he has done for
this country some American writers
have recently sought to prove that his
moral conduct would not stand the
high test of a comparison with that of
a New England Sunday school-teacher.
He was really so devoutly religious that
his signature is a cipher, said to mean
"Serrate me, Xrhitus, Maria, Yosefus,
Christoferens."
Ia his later years he suffered from
gout, ophthalmia and other maladies
which his many hardships brought on.
His sight and hearing were quick and
his sense of smell extremely delicate.

and he nad a great fondness for per
fumes. Every orf his voysages he was
fond of having his linen, which was
very fine, and his gloves scented with
essences or more often with dried
flowers. Otherwise he was moderate
and simple in diet and apparel from
taste and on principle; he may be
added to the list of great men who con
fined themselves as fur as possible to
vegetable diet and preferred water to
wine. He was scrupulously careful of
garb and person, even when he wore
the garb of an associate of the order of
St. Francis, as he did whenever circum
stances permitted.
