There are altogether too many breadwinners out of employment in the cOuntry, to whom the outlook is dismal. If Congress should adopt a resolution declaring that in its judg. ment any change in Our tariff laws ' would be inexpedient at this time, nine out of ten of these sufferers would be afi‘Orded employment within two weeks. And as Congress must See that such a Change cannot possibly be made, why should it hesitate to give such an assur- ance ? .0.——-—-————-_— Japan’s Silver Crisis. Japan is now passing through a silver crisis that is’ far beyond anything this country has ' experie ed. The recent action of India has d ressed the value of silver in all eastern lands, and the currency problem has become a matter of great concern to all the governments. In Japan to-day the silver cows are only worth a little more thansllalf their face value, and even at that, price mer-V chants refuse tO‘take them except‘in small amounts. 'Gold is in heavy de- mand, but‘is scarce. J apan has even a harder financial problem to solve than the one that confronts this country. Her government is watching anxiously ate, and the effect it will have on the business interests of the country. Our New Navy. Eight new ships will be added to the navy this year, The New York,the De- troit and the Machias are in commis- sion, and the Olympia, the Castine, the Montgomery and the Marblehead are ready for Official trial-trips. Sixteen other ships, including the battleships Indiana, Massachusetts, Oregon and others, are in course of construction. Our navy is growing with great rapidity, and it will have a most unusual degree of newness and efficiency. Along with . its physical development is a timely and intelligentefi‘ort'to reorganize and im- - prove the navy’s personnel. The suc- cess of this will mean much, for it will give the men new opportunities and new hopes, and will produce a finer es- prit dc corps. However great or beau- tiful the ships may be, they will not be . first-class unless they are ofiieered by first-class men. - The Art of Flying, The Engineering News sketches vari- ous proposals for locomotion that were before the International Engineering Congress held at Chicago recently, and among the rest a device of H. C. Vogt, of Copenhagen, Denmark, for propel- ling boats on water by means of a big propeller working against the air only. Mr. Vogt had gotten as high an efficien- cy from an air propeller as from the ordinary screw. His air propeller was six times the diameter of the screw and one-half the pitch. Another inventor suggested the use of an explosive gas mixture to operate a turbine for aerial navigation, thus saving the weight of boiler and water. It was laid down that if man is ever to fly he must try to imitate birds and “not attempt to carry a. floating gas- bag about with him.” Birds, it was shown, utilize wind currents. C. E. Duryea, of Peoria, thought the way to ' fly was to fly—to practice it in a flying school. Necessary adjuncts of such a school, it was explained, would be a pond to fall into, if the beginner should make a mistake, and a doctor. A M ‘v Work for the Charitable. _ The past Summer has not been a light one on “poor folks,” and Winter with its inclemency is coming upon a people illy prepared for it. Those considera- tions which have to do with clothing and coals may be practically ignored by those upon whom want has laid its piti- less hand, when the mercury mounts toward the tOp of thelthermometer. If they can earn their bread, says an ex- change, they can stand the deprivation of a great deal in the way of creature comforts while the sun furnishes a sup- ply of heat which enables thousands to exist without a roof. But in Winter we have a different state of affairs to deal with. Not only is everything required that is also de- manded in the warmer season, but much more is absolutely necessary for the comfort and well being if not of the very existence of our unfortunate breth- ren. And the question as to 'how this may best be secured is a considera- tion of first importance. The Summer has not been alight one because manufacturers have been frightened by the threat to so revise the Tariff asto shut up our shops and deprive our workingmen of the oppor- tunity to earn a maintenance for their families. And the oncoming Winter will be far spent, it is feared, before the insistent problem has been disposed ‘Of. . Thus we have afield white to the harvest for those who are wealthy and seek opportunities to do good to their I fellow men. And a little careful in- quiry will speedily show where a ton of coal and a reasonable credit at the grocer’s will do a million times more good than a whole tidal wave of sym-, pathetic yearning ever can do. Not for thirty years has the demand upon our charitable people been so pressing as it is to-day.

Chief Dann was in receipt of a postal this morning asking him to look out for an express wagon,with redishafts,stolen from Milford. He is also called upon to apprehend a man who stole a horse, aged 25 years, from the same town.

McLeod is said to be the king-pin, and the New York Herald of Tuesday, in a two column article and map, shows—on paper—how the Consolidated is to be opposed by a route from New York to Boston, ten miles shorter than its system. This has an old and familiar sound, yet the Herald seems in earnest in “whoopin’ (er up.” 44" Liquor Ad lnfinitum. . The managers of the fair are experi- encing great annoyance from the fact that liquor ad infinitum is sold on the fair grounds. No internal revenue col- lector has collected taxes of beer, whisky, and so forth. There is~ no prosecuting agent in the town Of Dan- bury and the managers have no one to whom they can go for aid in that place. .The liquor dealers continue to sell liquor and it has finally been de- cided to call upon the Bridgeport agent for aid.‘ The Danbury authorities, re- fuse to interfere as the fair grounds are outside the city limits.

The following _letter contains much that will be of great benefit to many of our readers : ' HIBAM, OHIO, 1892. Dr. David Kennedy .- ’ . DEAR SIR :——I am 60 years old and generally played out, or so I have thought up to two weeks ago _when I commenced the use of Dr. Dthld Ken». nedy’s Favorite Remedy: Since then I have experienced a decided change. For the last twenty yearsI have been, more or less troubled with inflamma- tion of the bladder and kidneys, and as the years have gone by, I have surely and gradually grown worse until I should not have been surprised at any time f that passing urine by nature s effort would cease. _, _ Besides having constant pain in the kidneys and bladder, I have had rheu- matic pain in every muscle and .Jomt, and have often remarked thatIdid not believe that there was a man livmg that had suffered as much as I had. I am not of an enthusiastic nature, instead I am rather a doubter, but _I must say I have not for a single day in five years felt as well in every way as do now. Have improved daily Since I_began the use of, Dr. Kennedy’s Favorite Reine: dy. About a week. ago I gave a,man_. afflicted with bladder trouble, part of_a‘ bottle Of Favorite Remedy and he said to me to-day, “that is agreat medicine; I amy-bett'er already,” and he drove eight miles to get a bottle. Very re- spectfully yours, S. I. YOUNG. . Out of Town Day. Thursday was ' out of town day at the Danbury fair and a larger crowd than ever was present. Seven excursion trains entered the city from the follow- ing points : New Haven, Bridgeport, South Norwalk, Waterbury, Hartford, Great Barrington, Mass, and Fishkill- on-Hudson, N. Y. It is estimated that fully 20,000 peOple were present. ' The police had a pitched battle With the army of fakirs and gamblers who are doing the fair. In all there are about 200 of the gang. Officer George Clus caught Frank Morton, a fakir, in the act of fleecing some patrons and attempted to place him under arrest. Morton’s fellow fakirs and gamblers hurried to his aSSistance and tried to rescue him. The officer at length was compelled to draw his re- volver. -He fired several shots into the air to attract aid. The police finally stopped the trouble and walked off With five pickpockets and three gamblers un- der arrest. Twenty warrants were is- sued for persons selling liquor Without a license. The number of drunken peo- ple on the street is unusually great and the police force is taxed to its utmost to preserve the peace. Elle-day is known as Danbury day and. the schools and factories in that city enclosed in order that all may attend “the pride of Danbury.” . \ O.

A statement prepared at the pension bureau shows that on July 1, 1893, there were 966,012 pensioners of all kinds be- ing borne upon the rolls. On Septem- ber 1, 1893, two months afterwards, there were only 964,398, showing a net decrease during that time of 1,614 pen- sioners. This is an average net de- crease Of 807 a month, and if extended through the year would Show a not de- crease Of 9,685. This is the first time in thirty-three years, or since the war, tlilat a net decrease to the rolls has been s own. *fi Dislocated His Shoulder.

The Sta e News says Of their appearance in ew York: The clever comedians Donnelly and Girard pro- duced on Monda at the Bedford Ave- nue Theatre, Wil iamsburgh their new farce-comedy .“ The Rainmakers,” and scored a very pronounced success. The , play is the work of Mr. Frank Dumont and is a fitting successor to “Natural Gas,” through which the popular come- dians have become great favorites in every city of the Union. The story is that of several impecunious individuals all bent on marrying a rich and d ing .WIdow, and _in the pursuit of her find themselves in the west. The chief of these are of course Messrs. Donnelly and Girard, who in the second act pass themselves off as rarnmakers, having “loaned” a noted rainmaker’s rockets and dynamite. ' OPERA HOUSE. Of “The Senator,” who will appear a the Opera House, Saturday evening, the Portland Argus says: We never had the pleasure of seeing Mr. Crane 1n_ the character of “Senator Hannibal Rivers,” but we do not see how his im- personation of that robust representa- , -tive of the hustling western statesman could have been much if any superior tothe en'oyable interpretation'of the part by ouis Aldrichvat the Portland Theatre last evening.
