Nor is it likely to. That the coinage question will be a conspicuous issue in the next campaign becomes less and less probable. The Populists will beat the air about it and make the welkin ring with it, but no other party is a t s.U like'y to treat it seriously. - . AZIlI GOLD "IIIi" j. .1 RCL GIIT 11Y XOETBEI1S CAPI TALIST3.

He oould not see their uniforms and thinking they -were robbers or "bogie men." and they would get him, broke and- ran. The officers ran, too, calling, every few steps, to him to halt. By his running they naturally sup posed he was an offender of some kind. The.; more they called and ran, the faster the negro Hew, 'for . he still be lieved himself pursued by robbers. As he refused to halt. Officer Kirk pat rick Bred at him. Then it was the cries of "murder," &c., rent the early morning air.

Tbe" negro never stopped until he ran into the police office and fell down gasping that robbers 'were after him. A few minutes after in came the offi cers to see what the man meant by running- ir to the police office.
