fined and 106.500 tons of raw.
There are 93,090 persons between the

The interest with which a voung man
watches the growth of hair on his upper

The United S.ates possesses the largest
vault and the largest deposit of money in
the world. It can hold $ioo,ooo,oc, but

The window glass consumption for the

The supreme court has passed upon the
railroad commission question, affirming
the decision of the court below. This set
tles the question against the commission
appointed by Governor Pennoyer and in
favor of the commission elee'ed by the
legislature.
It is semi-orScially stated that the price
f silver during iSSS averaged 93 cents
per ounce, as against 1.0: '2 in 1SS7. The
decline in the price, it is claimed, caused a
direct loss to Coloradomines of $1,456,738,
or the return was that sum less than they
would have received for the same ounces
of silver duriner the previous year.
It is a mistake to suppose that because
milk is a liquid food it is at the same lime
drink which is capable of satisfying the
thirst of infants. Although milk appeases
hunger, it makes thirst more intense after
it has remained some time in the stomach
and digestion has b( gun. It is thirst which
causes healthy, breast-nursing infants to
crv for long periods in many instances.
There are many cases of indigestion due
to weakness or insufficiency of the child's
gastric juice, which would be greatly ben

lowed an occasional drink of water.
There is an old colored cobbler in Hartford.
Conn., named A P Cleggett, who has for
twenty-five years devoted himself to collecting
and studying the history of rare copper coins.
1 lis son is the champion checker player of the
State. Mr. Cleggett's collection of coins com
prises a nearly complete set of pennies issued
from 1793 to 1856. His collection is very
valuable and contains many coins almost iin
iwssible to obtain, 1 lis group of British cop
pers is very interesting. Some of them date as
fir back as 1700. Mr. Cleggett is always glad
to welcome a well informed numismatist.
The official statistics read at the last Mormon

OHIO NKGKOES KICKINC,
The Hon. William Copeland , colored re
publican member of the legislature, who
enjoys the distinction of having received
the highest vote ever cast for a colored
man in Ohio, says in a public card that the
greatest dissatisfaction exists among Ohio
colored republicans. Governor Foraker
has done less for them than Governor
Hoadly did, and the national adminUtra
tion utterly ignores them. Copeland says
this is because Harrison personally dislikes
the negro. As a result of this snubbing,
Ohio blacks have concluded that the re
publicans only want them for their rotes.
Copeland says 5000 colored voters will re
main away from the polls this fall. This
alone would give Hamilton county and the
legislature to the democrats, As the in
coming legislature will probably serve three
years under the new constitutional amend
ments, which there is little doubt will
carry.lt will elect successors to both Payne
and Sherman. But tSere is a large and
influential class of negroes who Insist on
positive action, and arc circulating a call
for a state convention of blacks to nomin
ate a state ticket of their own race. Such
ticket, the first of its kind in any northern
state, would poll, It Is claimed. 15,000 rotes.
Copeland says he w ill not run for the leg
islature this fall, at he docs not believe he
can be elected.
It was a sight worth seeing watch young
David Dudley Field, who is now approaching
90 years of age, as he ate a hearty dinner,
smoked a big cigar and laughed at the jukes of
the lawyers and judges at the Silliman banquet
at Delraonico s. The great codifier is one of
the biggest men in the United States, straight
as a ramrod, with the flush of youth still upon
his cheeks and hardly looking over 50.
The Inter Ocean had a big scare the o:h;r
day when it published that "if it should prove
true that Congressman Reid, of Council Bluffs,
Iowa, is among the dead at Couemaugh, and
twy other Republican Congressmen so ill as
not likely to take any part in a called session, 1
there will be grave doubts of the propriety of I
calling it." j
According to inexorable statistics, the num
ber of people annually choked to death in Eng
land while eating is greater than the number
of people killed on the railways. And yet the
English are said to be the slowest eaters in the
world.
Warner Miller looks better than he did a
