It was a Croat ex peri en co to mo, whntovor it might have boon to Sitting Bull.

4I found myself at Hoi-so- hhoo Crook, in Wyoming, 40 miles northwest of Fort Lnramio, on Uio oid Salt Lsko wagon-road, ongagod in tho stock business. I had a partnor named Smith, and a gonial good soul he was, too, during tho brief poriod it was my fortuno to know him. lie had served as a private in tho 11th Ohio Cav. while this rogimeut was ststionod at Fort Laramie, but further than this I must oonfoss I knew nothing, save that ho was an Englishman of tho true Saxon typo, and from London. At "Horseshoe" thore was an abandonod stago had enoo boon garrisoned by and an Smith had beon a momber of tho detail ho naturally laid claim to it as its most rightful ownor.

It was built of adobe and covered with polos, ovor whioh was a layer of grass and a thick oovoriug of earth. Around this was a palisado of pine logs, with bastions at two of tbo angles oommauding both sides and onds of tho in-olosuro, while on the side near the road was a ponderous gate, which requirod the strength of two men to open aud clove It had onco contained a telegraph ofUoo, and sevoral rolls of wire had been loft bubiud uiiusod. It was a stronghold for a squad of soldiors, yet a6 there were only two te defond it now we made additional Sinprovomonts by digging trenches con-nooUng tho bastions with the inside of the houso, covering thorn with thick alabs and earth. In laying in our supplies wo purchased sev-oral boxos of ora dears, canned goods, and notions, which we expected to sell to soldiers or toRinslera of Government wagou-trains which might bo passing, theroby making alittlo to pay exp'usos wbilo our hord was iucrtasing. Three milossouth of us was "Twin Springs" Itanch, where two mammoth springs fnruishod the purest of crystal waters, and then scattcrod thoir life-giving qualities through an extonsivo fiold of grass, makiug a vordant contrast in its gray surroundings of sago brush.

By a pro-viens arrangement a Fronchman by the namo of lloohon was to occupy this place, whioh would not only give us neighbors but additional strength in numbers. Hochon was a "squaw man," having two children Baptists, a bey of 10, aud Marie, a girl of 10. He was soon joined by a man by tho uarae of Martin, who had been loft behind to bring up thoir supplies, among which was a keg of whisky that ho had smuggled through Fort Laramie. This gave us fivo in numbers, including tbo boy. Wo bad oach a Henry rifle and a good supply of fixed ammunition, which wo expected to use in supplying our tublo with gamo, thoro being an abundance of doer, antelope, and sage fowl within easy reach; an occasional boar, too, made known his presence by leaving his monster tracks in tho sands of the creek while in nightly quest of the chokc-chorry aud wild currants.

Smith was an oxoelioutshot, and pridod himself on being able to bring down a sage lisu on tho wing with his ride, a feat which 1 could novor hope to attain. We had but few oaltlo to bogin with, yet wo knew that should we be undisturbed iu this locality, the rich grasses and excellent wators would soon yield us an increase oqual to that ascribed to Job of Uz. The whole road had lweu abandoned, owing to the buiidiug of tho Union Pacific, aud new thore was only an occasional squad of soldiers passing to and from Forts Laramie and Fettorman, or a train of Government supplies, over what onco had been tlie great thoroughfare for the X'ouy Express, the overland mail and tho constant stream of emigration to the Hockios and beyond. After helping Itochen pat somo needed repairs on his sod house, we had nothing to do but round-up our little herd, go in search of game, or visit with oar neighbors. Tho Spring aud oJirly part of the Summer had passed with about the same daily routine; it was now yearly Sejitembor, and wo were engaged at Hooboa's putting up our Winter's hay.

On returning from tbo hayfield late one day wo discovered that oar milch oew, which wo kept lariated out some distance from tlie house, was missing, whilo an extninatleu showed tho trail of what seomod te bo about 100 ponies going in tho direction of tho Platte Hivor and following closely iu the thickot which grew on the margia of the creek. "ltogular thieving band of Sioux," or-cl aimed Smith. bee 'ow they try to 'ide themselves." We followed them until safety domandod our return to the Blockade. Setting off at a brisk gallop, we arrived just as tbo sun was setting. Leading our neaies inside we closed the gate and made it additionally secure by wrappings of wire.

After preparing a hasty moal and feeding the nonius, we mada preparation for watching tho Inclosure. Tlie moon, which was Hearing its fullness, gave sufficient light from a clear sky te see the movements of objects somo distanee. Smith occupied the bastion commanding tbo back side aud west end where tho sago brush, waist high, grew oloso to tho incisure, while I hold the cue overlooking the side whore tho gate was. Although aocustomed to frontier life, I con-foss I folt a loneliness come ovor mo which I oeuld not suppress when I entered tho bastion for that dreary watch. Peering out of tho portholes I could soe the graveyard, where the rude hoad-hoard8 noted the doethsof some emigrants away Imck iu the '50V ore tbey reached the land of gold, or still more recently where members of the 11th Ohio Cav.

had buon killed by Indians" while others hero records of deadly encounters between Slim Jim or Bull Whaokor Joo. Thoughts of r11 thie things wero anything bat seething to a man of a highly nervous temperament. A mile away was viaible high sandstone cliffs, with thoir dark shadowy caverns, crowned here sad tharo by stunted redars standing out against the sky like oroucimig savages. Ah occasional howl of the ooyolu, miuglod with that mournful cry of the owl pnrefoed on tbo rim of some prairio dog's hole, broke the stiiluexs of wight and ochood far away in the canyons beyoud. The hears passod slowly as I kt-jd, my ailent watch, until the moon, whioh had so generously liuhted up the whole surroundings, was juat disappearing beyond Laramie's Peak of dark pines as tbo clock struck 3.

A drowhiness came ovor mo, and I set down to rest, drawing my blanket well around me, for the night was cool. How long I had ben in this position I can-net toll, but I was suddenly startled by tho discharge of a gun. sprang to my foot, expect. ig to soe the stockade aurrounded by savages. The head-boards at the grave-yaid soemed to loom up te the vise of men the sago brush ap-poured to stir with animation, and tho cavernB in the clifls gaped wider as I strainod my eyes in every direction.

Yet, save tho ponies munching tb-ir hay, there was not a sound to dhtturbthowUHaess. I was unable to dotormino from which direction the ahot came or by whom fired. Tho distance between Smith's position and my own was too great to admit a oonvorsalion in ordinary tones, and I did not wish te disclose my wboreabouU by loud talking. Still thought it uooesaary to oemmuui-oato with him, that I might know if he was dead or alivo. I was not long ia deciding what to do.

Grasping my gun, 1 mods my way iu a stooping po-sftieu through the dark passages until I came to the opening whore Smith was, whon I pro-ooedod moro cautiously. I found him watching along the wast ond wboro tho long shadows of tlie sage brush had already roaohed the In-oJasorc, whoa be said in a low whispor: See thoro 1 I fired at that bloody crawling h'objoot, aud it 'aau't moved since." 1 looked and could seo, not moro than 40 foot away, a dark line extending along tbo ground, which I did net remember seoing thoro bofore, and so motionless was it that 1 could hardly beliovo it moro than a log of wood or some ob- Pitoher's Castoria. af hi IM11 il ft a. joct which had boon loft thoro at a previous timo and forgotten. Tho fast-approaching darkness tuado it impossible to deUrmiue what it was, nnd wo could only wait till daylight should rcvoal its true character.

Darkncsssoon shut otTonr vision, and for hotter protection wo romained together until morning. I shall uover forget the anxiety of those few dark hours or how glad I was to behold the first tint of day ovor tho "ltawhido" Mountains In tho cast. Not a word had boon spoken abovo a whisper during the night, whilo our cars had boon constantly sot to catch the least sound. Wo hoped tho morning's light would confirm my opinion, and that no prowling 6avago would be thcro to testify to Smith's unerring ballot. But whon daylight revealed a half-naked Indian lying doad on his face, my surprise wa3 only equaled by tho oxcitomout Wo know ho had companions, who wero either concealed nearby or had gono to thoir camp with the intelligence, aud should we remain in our prasout position wo would bo attacked by their whole force.

Our plan was to unite with Bochon either wboro wo wore or at Twin Springs, and as our place offered the better chance of successful do-fense, we concluded to bring him to us if possible. By a previous arraugoraent wo had agreed that in caso of danger a signal should bo displayed where it could bo seen Irora oithor place. I accordingly toro open a flour-sack, pinned my rod silk haudkorchicf to it, and after attaching tho wholo to a lariat, I rau it up tho old flag staff where onco had floated tho Stars and Stripes at Horseshoe It fluttered norvonsly, as 1 thought, in tho stiff morning breeze, whilo it was plainly visible from our neighbor's, should they chanco to look our way. And if such should not bo tho caso, wo know they would miss us from tho hay-fiuld aud would then como to our roliof. Wo had not long to wait, ns a cloud of dust appeared in tho road and soon galloping horso-meu could bo seen Bochon aud Martin.

Wo opened tho gato for them to ride in nnd then made known to them nil that had happened. Climbing on tho house-top wo surveyod tho surroundings for tho onomy, and as nothing could be seen to indicate their proseuco, wo ventured out to oxamiuo tbo dead savage. In his left hand he clutched his ready-strung bow and fivo arrows those silout moseugors ofdaath" whilo in his bolt ho curried nshwath-knifo and a Colt's navy revolver. Behind him lay his buffalo robo, and footprints of his retreating companions wore plainly visible in tho sand. Taking his arras, wo carefully covered him with his robe, and "loft him liko a warrior taking his rest," nnd with his long black braida noatly coiled ovor his body, for to Bcalp him wo doomed barbarous.

We could not get Bochon to agroo on making a defense of our position, and as it was absolutely noccssary to unite our forcos, wo decided to abandon Horseshoe and go with him to Twin Springs; if besieged thoro, to try to hold out until tho regular fortnight mail should pass from Fottorman to Laramie, which would bo duo infour days. To conceal our stores aud other articles which could not bo inovod wo dug a bolo in the middle of tho house and deposited everything of value, including tho arms of the dead Indian. After covoring noatly with dirt wo pilod somo old boxesnnd other inflammable material ovor tho placo and set firo to them. We romained long enough to see it catch tho hay in tho roof, then mounting our pouios wo galloped swiftly away, keeping a sharp lookout for tho enemy as wo rode. On arriving at Twin SpringB wo placod tbo boy on a prominent point to watch, whilo wo sut about getting iu a supply of water and such other articlos as wo might need in caseof siogo.

Wo tied our ponies near tho door for ready use, or to get tbcm iuside for safety should it bo nocossary. Small holes had beon loft in tho house for light and uso as portholes. In tlioso wo fitted blocks of wood and placed them ready to use when necessary. Shouts from tho boy caused us all to join him oh tho hill. Looking to the eastward wo could see, not moro than throe miles away, horsemen moving rapidly In tho direction of tho buruing ratioh.

Bright-burnished guus gloamed in tho sunshine as thoy swept up tho valley in such a confused mans that it was hard to form an estimate of their numbers. As they neared tho abandonod stcckado they moved in a circlo around it, in single file, yelling as only savages can, and firing an occasional shot. Justat this time a douse smoke, mingled with dust, went up from the burning roof, showing it had fallen in, which would effectually hido our stores. It soemed alo to convince them that tho placo had no defenders, for they gradually drew nearer aud climbed over tho pickets from tho backs of thoir ponios. Puns of sraokcasoendod from the place, showing they wero at work inside, and seen flames were seen to mount up from tho iuclosuro near tbo gate, which would render it useless as a piano of defense for the white man.

Being bafiled in their attempt to secure plunder, and losing one of their number, we knew would make them more determined aud revengeful should wo meet thorn, and it was our purposo to avoid an encounter, if possible, ngaiimt such lioavy odds. Our having takou the precaution to He down whon they came iu sight mado us hopo we were as yet undiscovered, but subsequent events proved wo wero mistaken. Gathering in tho road near the gate they soornod to bo holdiug a consultation as to future movements. Then a lancehead glistened in tho sunshine as it was hold aloft by a man mounted on a spotted pony. They galloped on at a high rate of speed to-wards our position.

Wo wero satisfiod now as to their intentions, and quickly siiding back out of sight ran to cover aud led the pouioi inside. Wo closed tho heavy door and barred it, expecting to sco tbo performance just enacted at Horsoshoo repeated at Twin Springs. Smith stood near mo, with his long hair of curls reaching to his shoulder, perfectly cool, while all was excitement with mo. I distinctly romembor that I thought I could hear the loud boating of my heart as wc awaited -the onset. Diverging from tho road, they ascended hill somo half-mile distant, aud halted to tako iu tho surroundings.

Smoke ascended from tho chimnoy, and othor evidences of our presence mado thorn proceed cautiously. Tho chief on the spotted pouy ndvanced slowly alouo, bearing a white flag, which proved to bo tbo flour-sack loft at llorseshoo. Ho shook tho flag vigorously, and halted nt intervals, as though he wore in doubt whotber it was going to protect him from our bullets. Finally, when within filly jmicos of tho house, ho halted, aud, placing his two hands together, shook thorn aud exclaimed, iu a doop bass voice, "How! howl Waseeha, wash-Li, wash-tal" White man good, good 1 Then ho introduced himself as Sitting Bull, and stated that his "tepoe" was "six sloops" to tho north, and that they wore on thoir way to Fort Laramio to talk with tho "White Father." Wo had board of Red Cloud, Spottod Tail, Mau-Afrald-of-His-Horsos, nud others of their like, but uevor before of Sitting Bull. However, Bochon nnsworod him in good Sioux, nud ho came up soomingly ovorjoyed and desired to shake hands.

But tho thickness of tho walls of the house made it impossible to do bo through the small holes. Then ho professed extreme hungor, as though his stomach were not already gorged on tho ftm of our cattle, which thoy had stolon. While passing him some crackers through tho hoi oa, others came straggling up, first singly, then in pairs and groups, until the house was oomplotely surrounded by jmlnted wairiors, and all, like tho first, extremely friuudly and "heap bongry," as thoy oxpiosscd it. Wo again divided our crackers, together with tobacco, and the pipe of ponce was smoked, which oocupiod fully half an hour, wbou they gave us a proving invitatiou to como out nud shako bauds. Wo refused to do this.

However, wo consented to "shake," if thoy would thou go away; to which they agreed. A hole was thon enlarged for this purpose at tho Bido of tho door, and whilo Bochon and tho others shook thoirhand8, 1 counted their numbers and found thorn to bo 70. How thoir eyes sparkled as thoy strained them trying to penetrate tho daikness withiu.in ordor to ascertain our probable force, whilo oach had somo remark to make by way of derision, calling us badgers who wore afraid to como out of thoir hole. Asullen-looklug individual, made doubly hido-ous by spots of tallow and charcoal which covered his face, sat at a distance, taking no part in tho proceedings whatever. Ho was a brother of tho Indian killed at Horseshoe, aud wuro these marks as a token of death.

Ammunition was called for, and a pony would easily Imvo bueu givon in exebaugo for this article if it could not havo been obtained for less, but wo rofusod thorn on tha ground that they wero going to kill "badgers," aud thoy seemed to understand our moauing. Thoir stay began to got monotonous, to say nothing of our being crowded into a small place with nine ponies and tbo nrticlcs which had been stowed iuside for safety; eo wo called thoir attoutlou to their recent agrccmont aud askod them to move ofT, telling them that unless thoy did so we would consider thom "bad men," aud would bo obliged to treat thom accordingly. Thoy thon snllonly took thoir doparturc. snylug thoy would go to Fort Laramio and talk with tho "White Fathe-." When the last ono disappeared ovor tho ri go in tho direction of tbo Platto Bivor wo felt only temporary relief, believing they wero liable to return and "bolo" U3 up again at any time. So wo bogon discussing the best way out of our trouble Wo wero agreed that our position was untenable, and would havo to bo abandoned.

Bochon.being the one most interested, wo loft ovorything to him, and ho concluded to send tho squaw and little girl to frlonds at Fort Fottcrman, with a note to tho commanding officer advising him of tho presence of tho Indians on tho road, whilo wo would repeat tho proceedings at Horsoshoo aud set out for Fort Laramio. Farly nightfall found tho squaw and tho Ht-tlo girl on tho road with two ponies aud tho light wagou, aud what stores could bo stowed away for them, whilo wo wore ougaged makiug preparations for our departure on tho following morning. We had seven ponies, two of which wo packed with our camp outfit, riding tho othors. Each carried a belt of 100 rounds of ammunition and all bis pockets would hold besides, calculating to givo tbcm a warm roccp-tlon should they attack us. My counsel to mako a circuitous route through tho hills was overruled for that of tho road which led down a v.illoy to tho bond of the Platto (siuco Bull Bond).

As soon as It was snfilclently light to soo our surroundings wo sot firo to tho last habitation betwocn Forts Laramie and Fettcrmnn nnd sot off on oar journey. To tho right of tho road was a succession of hills, terminating In a high ERiidstouo ridgo, over which wo should havo to pass between Bull Bend and tho Bitter Cottonwood, and somo fivo miles distant from our Etarting-poiut. Boforo ascending this hlght wo dismounted and walked on tho sido of our ponies, keeping them betwocn us and a donso thicket of cedar that lined tho road on our loft. Whilo toiling slowly up this steep iuclino, keeping, as wo thought, a vigilant watch for tho enemy in every possihio hiding place, wo wore startled by a volloy, fired nt cloo rango, which dealt death and consternation to our little party. Smith fell mortally wonndod.

Martin received a shot through the lungs. Tho air seemed full of whizzing arrows, and tho groat woudor was how any of us escaped death boforo wo could defend oukoIvos. I bad only timo to place blanket under Smith's head, whon ho expired without a word. Wo roturned a rattling firo into tho thickot, wboro no enemy conld bo scon, until our ponies became wounded and unmanageable. Thon wo retreated along tho baso of tho hill, leaving our dead and tho ponies in tho hands of tho savages.

Wo disputed the ground step by Btcp until wo camo to a sand torrout, which had a small trco lying down on tho dry sand. Hore wo haltod and scraped up tho sand with our hands against tho trunk of tho troo until it formed somo protection. From this placo we kept them at hay for somo IJ0 miuutes, during which Martin, who had been able to follow us thus far, kept imploring us tokiil him that ho might not fall into tho hands of tho savages alivo. At length ho crawlod up under tho limbs of tho tree aud took his own life with a small pistol. Tho Indians had now gathered behind a point of tho hill within 50 puces of ui, whero thoy discharged arrows from their unseen position into the air coming dowu in showers all around us.

Ono of them passed through tho boy's moccasin and imbedded itself iu hi3foot. Whon this occurred we ran to a cavern in tho cliff, which formed tbo source of tho Saud Creek. Following this up. wo camo to a precipitous rock, which rendered it i in possible to proceed farther. Sittiug down wo extracted tho arrowhead from tho wounded foot aud bound a handkerchief around it.

Then wo burled tho guns of Smith and Martin, which wo had taken tho precaution to bring away with us. Being out of reach of their bullets and arrows, tho Indians began a new system of attack, rolling stones down into our midst In such numbers that wo wero obliged to withdraw to the opening, where wo mot them again. Taking rofngo behind a bank of earth, wo fought thom with such desperation that Sitting Bull raised tho white flag for a parley, which wo woro glad to allow. Standing on a little omincncoho said: "White man killed ono Sioux, good man. Sioux killod two white men.

Now satisfied. If palo faco go back to him ranch and show Injun cache, Injun make peace and go 'way." We considered our almost hopeless condition and tho chances of boing killed while returning, aud chow tho latter. Wo first requestod that our ponies bo restdred to us as a part of tho consideration, but Bull being in position to dictate terms refused this. Ho would not even allow the boy to ride. Placing tho two first fingers of his right baud astrido the iudox finger of his left ho Indicated by a galloping motion that tho boy would run away if allowed to ride his pony.

Now began tbo most trying part of tbo wholo affair to march back by tho sido of tho mounted enemy, each party eying tho other with distrust, and carrying their guns roady for any emergency. Wo kept tho savages at a respectful distance to our loft, whilo our bravo boy hobbled along at our sido without a murmur. While watching them for treachery I found I had a good opportunity to count their number, whicli I did several timoa, aud found them to bo 51, or just 19 less than wero at tho ranch tho day before. Notwithstanding Bull's statomeut "that wo had killed ouo Sioux," wo had good reasons for nut believing him. At tho saddle of tho Indian who wore tho spots of tallow and charcoal hung tho entire scalp of poor Smith, with its long flaxen locks matted with blood, aud I thought bow badly we needed him and how well ho deserved a'bottor fato.

When wo arrived at the ranch wo found that tho roof had fallen in aud tho firo was still smoldering under its covering of earth. The Indians dismounted and formed around tho doorway, whilo wo wero iusido preparing to movo tho dirt and embers from tho buried stores. In order to enable myself to 11 so the shovel to a better advantage I laid a belt of cartridges down near me. An Indian, seeing his opportunity, seized it, when I grappled with him and throw him over a pile of earth. Thon others camo to his aid, and wo wero obliged to present ourgunsfora second engagement.

As neither scorned willing to bring on the attack tho affair ended by tho savago keeping tho ammunition. Whon wo reached tho stores Bull took charge of tho keg of whisky, neither drinking it himself nor allowing others to do so, and 1 was glad it was to bo reserved for somo future use. During the interval wheu thoy woro absorbed In fcaitingand plunder, wo silently withdrew to tho hills near by and mado our wayito Fort Laramie, wboro wo arrived two days later, without further interruption. Placing tho boy in tbo hospital, I returuod with Troop, 2d and gathered up our mutilated dead and buried them sido by sido in one shallow trench near tho road, marking the spot with a cedar post, bearing tho inscription Wm.

Nehon A. Miles in iVortA American Review. Whilo tho Indians havo been in this disaffected condition, and rearming nnd remounting, tho littlo army, that is the only safeguard between tbo unprotected settlers and tbo savage hordes, has been employed in other fields, and its supplies and equipment havo boon seriously curtailed. Congress has fixed tho limit of tho enlisted men in tho army, tho numbor of employes, tho number of horses nnd tbo number of mules, and tho limit is what might bo required in timo of peaco rather than what is actually required in seriou3 warfare. Congress, however, has not limited Indian wars.

This neccssarially cau303 much embarrassment to the United States troops; yet it has been tho experience of tho Army of tho United States to copo with tho largo number of savago tribes, experiencing all tho dangers and hardships of a war in which no quarter is exacted, and every oflicor and soldior who on-tors an Indian campaign realizes that, unlesa he achieves success, naught awaits him but torture or death. No ono who has not orporioncod it can comprehend or appreciate tho fortltudo, hardships, and sacrifices displayod and endured by our Army in its years of experience in Indian war-faro; frequently in tho wildest nud most rugged sections of the country, amid canyons, mountains, and lava-beds, undor the tropical boats of the South or in tho Arctic blizzards of tho extreme North.

Ilenry Cabol Lo'Jge in North American Review.l Tho question, thereforo, arises and there 13 no moro importect question before the American peoplo What shall bo done to protect our labor against this undue competition, and to guard oujr citizenship against an infusion which seems to threaten deterioration? Wo havo tho power, of course, to prohibit all immigration, or to limit the numbor of persons to bo admitted to tho couutry nnnually, or which would havo tho samo effect to impose upon immigrants a heavy capitation tax.

Such rough and stringent measures aro certainly neither noceanry nor desirahlo if wo can ovorcorno tho ditficulties and dangers of the situation by more moderate legislation. Theso methods, moreovor, aro indiscriminate; nnd what is to be desired, if possiblo, is restriction which, shall at tho samo timo discriminate. We demand now that immigrants shall not be paupers or diseased or criminals, but these aud all othor oxisting requirements aro vague, aud the methods provided for their enforcement are still moro indefinite and aro porfoctly ineffective. Any law, to be of use, must require, in the first place, that immigrants shall bring from their nntivo country, from the United States Consul or other diplomatic representative, an effectivo certificate that thoy are not obnoxious to any of theexiatinglawsoftho United States. Wcought, iu addition, to rnnke our test still more dofinito by requiring a medical certificate in ordor to oxcludo unsound and diseased persons.

Little Practical Use For Flylcx-JIaehlnts. Arthur Mark Cummlngi in NorUiAuxerican Review. Flying-machines are among the near possibilities an enthusiast might almost say probabilities.

But the world has as littlo practical uso for flying-machine3 a3 it has for tho north pole.

Scientists would bo deeply interested in thom; tho rich might conceivably use them as luxnrions playthings adventurous cranks would play mad pranks with thom, not "beforohigh heaven," but in high heaven; and tho managers of agricultural fairs and Fourth-of-July outortainment3 would hail them with joy as the legitimate heir to that old favorite, tho balloon ascension.

Address, Prof. J. A. LAWRESC8, SS Wnrren Strcer, Sew York. Dollars for tho Jfow "World.

A new silver dollar will bo erected by the Pan-American Monetary which meots In Washington next week. It will bo a dollar circulated not merely in tho United States, but throughout all tho IS Republics of the Now World. What it will be like remains to bo determined by the Conference, but there is very little doubt on this point. In all probability it will resemble somewhat the United States silver dollar, with a portrait of Columbus to tako the plaeo of tho Goddess of Liborty on ono side, tho obverso varying. THE DOfXAR WILI.

PEOBABI.Y BK OT 8II.VKK. The 18 Eopnblics In question desired to es-stabliah the coinage of thw international dollar when their representatives mat here a year ago, but tho delegates appointed by this country Mr. Estee, of California, and Mr. T. Jefferson Coolidgo, of Massachusetts fought ever tho question as to whether the coin should bo of gold or silver, so that the Conference adjourned without rooching a determination In the matter.

All tho other nations of South and Central America were in accord on tho subject, and thoy said that thoy would wait until the United States had made np its mind as to what it wanted. Undoubtedly tho dollar will bo of silver, and the general sentiment ia in favor ef one that shall be of the value of the Mexican dollar, which is worth 90 cents, whereas eura ia only worth 73 conta. All the countries concerned in the agreement will coin the new dollar, each one in quantities proportionate to its population, and the circulation ef the new piece will be made compulsory by law throughout the Americas. One face, bearing tho likeness of Columbus, or whatever other design may bo chosen, will be always tho some for tho United States, Brazil and the Argentine Be public, Chili, Peru and the rest but the obverso will havo tho name and insignia of the Nation which issues the dollar. The object of thia proposed coin is to facilitate commerco among the American republics, and to obtain security against the great fluctuations in the price of silver, which have hitherto caused so much financial troublo.

Hebrew Divorcer. Nv York Herald. Public attention is called by tho Grand Jury to a curious practice which boa prevailed among the lower classes of Hebrows in the city namely, the granting of divoreos byEabbiea. Tho jury report: We have hud several owes before tw whore Jews lmd been roamed in RuU und reared families. They would emigrate to thia oountrv, where the husbnnd would seek a divoree from his wife.

Ha would go to hid liabbi, a ia IJiMwIn, nnd get a divorce, nnd then nitirry ajcfiln, utterly ignornnt of IiH violation of the law. Several of those vietims of their own tgnoranco hnvebeen Bontenoed from thi-4 Court for the crime of blgniuy. Tho fault lies with the Itubbioa. who grant tho divoreos knowing them to be of no legal authority. It was only yesterday that a caso of this kind camo np in the Es3ez Market Police Court, where a Polish Jew was arraigned for abandoning his wife.

He ofTered as a defense what ho claimed to bo a divorce a document signed by his wife and attested by a Rabbi, in which she, "in consideration of tho sum of $3, divorce said Kopol Harris from moRss husband," agreed not to bring any civil or criminal suit against him for support, "allowed" him to "get married to whom he may choose and promised "not to interfere with anyone he shall get married to." This appears to be a custom brought from Eussia, where such ecclesiastical divorces are recognized as operative. A 3Ionse on the Thcht-Bopo. Baltimore Amtrican. An amusing incident was witnessed yesterday on St. Paul, Fayetto and Charles streets, a small mouse figured as a high wire performer, attracting the attention of a largo number of spectators of both saxes.

When tho mouse was first seen he was on a telephone pole at St. Paul street and Bank Lane, and is supposed to-havo come from one of the telephone conduit3, which are infested with mice. From the polo the little rodent walked deliberately along ono of tho telephone wires and up St. Paul street to Fayetto streot. Here he was seen by two sparrows, who immediately showed fight, probably because they thought tho wiros the exclusive property of their tribe, and resented the intrusion.

Tho sparrows would swoop down as near as they dared, giving vent to their peculiar, shrill notes of anger; but, 83 the mouse also showed fight, they were a little afraid of making too cloae an acquaintance. Tho two sparrows were soon joined by others, aud, if their cries had been of any avail, would havo como ofTvictorious. A3 it was the mouse traveled on np Fayette street to Charles street, and finally escaped. Improved Local Conditions. New York Stockholder, Lee.

29: Such activity as developed in the stock market at the cJoho was duo to anticipation of a good bank statement, which wero unquestionably realized, as tho banks in the post week havo gained in surplus $3,068,600, and now hold $7,721,275 in excess of legal requirements. The improvement in local conditions indicated by these figures was largely, though not altogother, responsible for tho stronger undertono at the ond. For what has had more effect to restore confidence is tho fact that clearing-house loan certificates aro being rotired moro rapidly than is generally supposed. On Saturday certificates to the amount of $360,000 were cancelled. Thus we bogin the weok to-day with $13,835,000 certifi-catcs outstanding, instead of over $15,000,000, as was tho caso a week ago.

AH this is indicative of a gradual restoration of confidence. It likewise denotes an easier feeling in financial circles. Furthermore, it has a most important boaring upon money, which, unless the signs of the times are misleading, is going to be plentiful enough in tbo near future Ho, Sho Didu't. Detroit Free Press. When an oflicor had rescued a woman and her horse and cuttor from an impending smashupon Grand Elver, ho asked of her: Don't you know that you are on the wrong sido of the street?" Why, no." "Don't yon know the ordinance say3 you must have bells on tho borao or thilla? Why, no." "Don't you know that your horso Is harnessed up so that his heels knock the cutter? Why, no." Don't you know that two of the iron braces of tho cutter are broken and dragging on the ground?" "Why.no." And sho put on tho gad and continned hor journoy, believing that Providenco had nothing to do but to watch over hor.
