The president's recommendations
on currency reform are awaited with
interest by the country. Currency
reform, and not the tariff, is the great
issue now.
Almost all the big republican papers
are talking against all trades between
the republicans and populists for the
(ill trnl nf the United States senate or
any other purpose.
A New York paper says one melan
choly result of the tidal waves is that
they sweep into public life many little
fellows who were not nominated with
an idea of their election.
A bill appropriating $140,000,000
for pensions, and $1,381,000 for other
expenses, will be reported to the full
house committee on appropriations
by the sub-committee on pensions.
Make room for the ladies. The re
sult of the election for members of the
London school board is-that Miss
Davenport Hill has defeated the Duke
of Newcastle by 8,000 votes.
A man named Miller took a flyer in
wheat speculation on the Toledo pro
duce exchange. He lost 3,000,' and
brought suit against his brokers for
the amount, on the ground that he had
been gambling. The jury decided
that there was no cause for action.
The recent election has given a
strange stimulus to woman's suffrage
to New York city. The refusal of the
constitutional convention to give the
women the right to vote has had no
effect upon the movement.
A man's wife's services are of money
value. In the case of Michael G.
Cannon, who sued the Brooklyn city
railroad company for $20,000 damages
for the loss of the services of his wife
Annie, the jury has returned a verdict
awarding the plaintiff $10,000. In a
previous suit for damages for per
sonal injuries Sirs. Cannon secured a
verdict of $12,000 damages.
The unique spectacle of a man suing
a woman for breach of promise of
promise of marriage has created a
sensation at Centerville, Mich. A
man claims that a woman encouraged
his attentions and finally proposed
marriage to hirn, but now declares
there was no engagement between
them. The man sues for damages.
All signs of hard times have van
ished from the fashionable world in
New York. The profits of the recent
millinery tournament, called a horse
show, amount to $142,150, and the
advance sale of seats to the season of
winter opera insured the managers &
profit of a quarter of a million before
the doors were opened.
United states treasurer D. N. Mor
gan has submitted to secretary Carlisle
the annual report on the operations
and condition of the treasury. The
net ordinary revenues for the fiscal
year ending Jane 30 were $297,722,
019 25, a decrease of $88,097,609.53 as
compared with the year before. The
net ordinary expenditures were $387,
525,279.83, a decrease of $15,952,-
374.60.
A Buffalo man rolled a peanut a
mile with a toothpick in payment of
an election bet. If he has any
friends they had better pat him in a
lunatic asylum as soon as possible,
remarks an exchange.
More women than men voted at the
recent election in Colorado, and they
cast a larger per rentage of their
registered vote than the men. They
led the men in Denver by 8.000
besides including 3,000 mn to
TOle who usually neglect this duty.
Only a fe of the 70,000 women who
voted took part in the street proces
sions. A large majority voted the re
publican ticket.
The diff-rence of opinion among
democrats as to the advisability of
trying to pass the pop-gnn tariff bills
during this session is madj evident as
members of the party arrive in Wash
ington and discuss the question. It
is believed that when they all get there
and come to talk the matter over
among themselves it will be decided
that this effort will make but useless
agitation, and that they cannot secure
sufficient unity of action to make it
worth while.
CENTRE Rl'SII WENT CRAZY.
Sal Result of a Student's Injury During; a
Football Game.
Little Falls, Nov. 24. Barney
Foote, a student at the Fairfield sem
inary, was centre rush for the semi
nary eleven in a football game. Dur
ing the game Foote was slightly in
jured on the head. At 1 o'clock he
arose and dressed himself in his foot
ball suit, grabbed his room mate,
threw him violently to the floor and
cried: "Now, are you down?"
His room mate cried "Down!" and
at th? same .time called for help but
before it arived the insane man jump
ed upon him in a merciless manner.
When several students rushed in the
room Foote threw his valise at the
leader, saying: "Now catch the ball
and go around the end." The valise
struck the student on the head and
knocked him to the floor. With a
water pitcher and oil can Foote held
the students at bay all night, and
amused himself in lining up against
the doors, and, with his valise for a
football he rushed and knocked them
off their hinges.
Finally the football team lined up
in the yard below, and Foote went
down and took his place as centre.
Then a constable grabbed him from
behind and bound him. His parents
have had him tcken to the Utica in
sane asylum." The football team has
been disbanded.

A Flock of Wild Birds Swoop Down on
Burlington.
Burlington, N. J., Nov. 24 Thanks
giving dinners litterally dropped at
the doors of a mumber of Burlington
people last night. A great flock of
wild geese, becoming lost in the dense
fog and bewildered by the' electric
lights of the city floundered about
among thelbuildings. They .beat their
wings against windows, dashed a jainst
buildings and became entangled in
the electric light wires. Many of the
fowls were hurt by the contact and be
came the prey of such pedestrians as
W(Bre abroad at that hour.
'A policeman procured three fine
birds that had sustained broken wings
by flying into the wires.
The flock comprised several hun
dred, aud it is thought that tbey
were on their annual migration south.

A Lively 20-Ounce Baby.
After just one week of noteworthy
