C., Sept. 14— The net cash iu the Treasury at the close of business to dav was $127,- 162,441, of which $56,948,525 repre sented the gold reserve. The gold reserve bas been steadily climbing upward for the past month. On August 8 it reached its lowest point in the record of the depart ment, $52,189,500 Since that date it has increased almost $5,000,000 and the increase has largely allayed the fears of treasury officials. Dur- ing the past week it has increased over $1,100,000. This increase is accounted for by the surrender of gold voluntarily by banks and its exchange for small notes. During Pandemonium then broke loose. Men shouted themselves hoarse, tossing their hats and canes in the air; women set aside dignity and waived handkerchiefs and parasols to the melody of their more resonent applause. There were cheers for horse, for driver and for the owner, Mr. Hamlin, aud Geers was lifted from the sulky and carried up the Catalogue free at our a; ies, or mailed for two 2-cent stamps. POPE MFG.

Wild Man at Sedalia. Sedalia, Mo.,Sept. 14—This town is somewhat stirred up by the ap pearance of a wild man in the north- ern suburbs. Within the past week he has frightened a number of people by his maniacal appearance. James Henderson, who lives neur town saw him yesterday as he was plowing his way through a clump of underbrush. When called to he made no response, but kept straight ahead, as though he knew exactly where he was going. Mr. Hender- son thinks he is six feet and one half tall. He is in extreme summer cos- tume, wearing nothing but a pair of the past week $216,000 have been so exchanged. The balance of the increase is due to the purchase of bullion at Helena, Denver and Char- lotte, N.C. The large increase in the output of gold in Colorado and Montana piles up the gold reserve, as it finds its way directly to the assay offices of the government. trousers and a black shirt,the sleeves of which are tattered to the elbows. The trousers are also badly wocn. He has brown matted hair, which hangs in a tangled mass to his shoulders aud a heavy grewth of beard covers his face. His feet are bare and cut and bruised. His eyes are large and protruding. In waking his escape he jumped a fence like a wild deer. A company of Sedalia people are organizing to goin search of the strange visitor. Pathetic Court Room Scene. Sedalia, Mo., Sept. 13.—A pathet- ic scene was witnessed in the Pettis county probate court today. The habeas corpus case of Frank Denny, of Beuton county, vs. Albert Wilson, of Sedalia, in which the former sought to obtain the custody of bis 6-year old daughter, who kad made her home with the Wilsons for sev eral years, was decided in favor of the plaintiff by Judge T. P. Hoy, but the child refused to accept the verdict of the court. She hung upon the neck of Mra. Wilson, and her cries rang throughout the court room, nor would she leave the Wil sons until force was used. Her father isa kind, indulgent parent, but the child had been with the Wilsons so long that the child's for- mer affection for him was transferred to them.

Washington, Sept. 10.—The or ganization of the populists in the south is said to be on the verge of collapse. It is pointed out that Weaver their candidate for president in 1892, polled 11,800 votes in Ar kansas. He polled more votes in several counties than the republican candidate and carried two counties outright. The election of last Mon day resulted in au overwhelming de feat for the pepulists.

Selfishness and Difficulty. Samuel Gompers, the labor leader showed his knowledge of human na ture in his testimony before the iu vestigating Commission at Chicago He said: “I do not belieye any one plan will solve the labor problem. Wage-workers are just like other persons; they will always ask for more, no matter how much they are getting. Aman earning $1 a day will be satisfied for a while with $1.10 a day. A man who earns £3 a day will not be satisfied with an increase of 10 cents: he will want $3.25 or $350 aday. If he earns $5,000 a year he will want an in- crease of $1,000 a year, and if he gets $50,000 he wili want the earth.” “Mary,” suid Farmer Flint at the breakfast table as he asked for a second cup of coffee. “I've made a discovery.” “Well, Cyrus, you're about the last one I'd expect of such a thing, but what is it?” “I have found that the heavy .end of a match is its /¢ght end,” respond- ed Cyrus with a grin that would have adorued a skull.
