while Japan hcz only $1C1,200,000.
Bat China's coin ia nearly all silver
while about cnc-Lalf of Japan's coin
is gold. It v?ill be therefore a mo
' Txcntess-ariiitio'i to China whether
Japan 'will exact gtelJ or accept eil
ver. If the indemnity can be- paid
in iLe latter China could export a
great pirtof it from her ci?n people
ttid easily borrow tb.2 rest, but
should Japan demand gold and the
Bettlemect be decreed on that basis
where is the gold to oome from ?
The bulk of it v. ould have to be got
ten in Europe and America and
neither wants to part with any of its
stock of gold.
Another interesting problem re
lates to the effect of a great war in
demnity upon Japan herself. It is
always dangerous to disturb the fU
naccial equilibrium of a country. A
sudden influx of money engenders
speculation, inflates values unduly
and results in all kinds of extrava
gance, The reaction is almc3t io
Variably disastrous.
' It is weli remembered into what a
bad financial condition Germany fell
soon after France paid the immense
indemnity for the war of 1870.
France paid the debt in wonderfully
short time, did not seem to feel it
and a few years af tf r was the most
prosperous country in Europe, while
Germany, after a period of wild
speculation, was sufering from se
vere financial depression.
Perhaps history will repeat itself
in China and Japan when the finan
cial account for their vrar is settled.

Religious excitement appears to
be growing in Roanoke county. One
of the local papers Bays :
Mr, 11 H Jennings, a prominent

insane Saturday afternoon by a com
misssion of lunacy. Application
will be made for his admission to

The lawyer's errors are strung np

the newspaper man. Every time he
slips on a fact, the use of a word or
the construction of a sentence, and
doesn't get out a paper 'to suit each
readei, he has to send his journal
before that captiously critical jury
publicopinion. He has no right
of appeal, and simply has to "grin
and bear" the verdict. And the
worst feature is that everybody
knows how a'paper ought to be run,
and therefore,Jthe people are not in

It is ruled by the postal authorities
that any reduction of the eize of a
postal card by clipping, rounding off
the corners or otherwise, will subject
the receiyer of the card to a charge
of 1 cent on delivery, This makes
the cr-st of a postal card equivalent
to letter postage. Many persons in.
close postal cards to correspondents
in envelopes too small, and imagine
that a little clipping won't make any
difference. Others round off the
coiners ior ornamental purposes or
convenience in handling. But the
practice is wrong.

DASHED TO DEATH.
A Slarn.Palnter In 3reensbre Falls
From a Building ana la ;Instantly
Hilled.
Two rovinsr sien painters have
been in the city several days paint'
ing signs. TheyJ were very good
workmen, their names being Lew
Mann, of N. Y.. and Robert Mc
Donnell, of Chicago.
This morning they were engaged
painting the letters, "The Brock-
mann School of Music," on the
front of the Trogdon building on
East Market steet, a few doors west
of the Court House. The sign was
being painted on the wall just fabove
the windows of the Becond floor, the
men using a "swing" that is, a
plank placed upon a long laider,
either end of which' was held by a
strong rope an 4 tickle, 6n the end
of the rope there being a hook which
was hooked on to the window sill.
These hooks were large and ap
peared to be strong, but one of them
was bent orer considerably in order
to get a hold on the Bill. One of
the men remarked that he didn't
like tbe looks of it but would risk
it, and it caused bis death.
The men had almost completed
the Bign, and were working on the
las tbree letters, the "S" in music
being almost finished, while the "I"
and "O" were mapped ont ready for
the brush
McDonnell was near ihe east end
of the swing amd about this time
Mann moved up nearer to bun when
the nook tttraighletied and curae
loose from ihf Bill without any
warning whatever, leaving oiilj one
end of the structure" fastened to the
building.
McDonnel' fell head -foremost to
the pavement, striking tqnarely on
his head crushing his skull and
killing him almost instantly. A piece
of bis skull a3 large aa one's hand
was fractured, the blood and brains
running ont over the sidewalk.
The other workman Mann
caught on th window sill by the
tips of his fingers and pulled: him
self in at the open window. Tbe
fall was perhaps not over 25 feet,
bat when the swing gave way it
naturally turned McDonnell .head
downwards, causing him to fall
squarely on his head, otbewise he
might not have been-killed.
The body was taken in charge by
the city and tamed over to under
taker Forbia for burial. Greensboro
