VICTORIA ALONE IS SERENE.
Alt Other Enroptnr. Hoyaltfes Wear
Their Crowni on Uneasy llemU.
Queen Victoria lends a quieter and
less ruffled life than the sovereign of
any other country In Europe. She is
not bothered with the business of run
ning her government; she never gets
involved in the squabbles of parties; i
she moves from one of her royal resi
dences to another according to -her
pleasure; she Indulges In a foreign
tour whenever she is disposed; she does
not need even to keep an eye on the
prince of Wales nowadays, and the
New York Sun thinks that her domestic
cares must be light.
All the other sovereigns have a hard
time of it. Here is Oscar II., king of
Sweden and Norway, tormented by tho
Norwegian malcontents, bv the obstruc
tive storthing and by Isben. Here Is
William II. of Germany driven to his
wits end by hectoring adversaries.
Here is the king of tho Greeks, George
I., always hard up and at times almost
overwhelmed in a sea of troubles. Here
is the king of the Belgians, Leopold II.,
whose throne was menaced a few
weeks ago by his rebellious subjects
nnd saved for a time only by his pru
dence. Here Is the little king of Spain,
Alfonso XIII., who must lie frightened
when ho hears his subjects shouting
for a republic. Here are the czar of
Itussia, the king of Italy, the emperor
of Austria aud the sultan of Turkey,
the hardships of whom art? known to
all the world. The young queen of the
Netherlands, Wilhelmlna; the middle
aged king of Portugal, Charles 1., and
the'old king of Denmark, Christian IX.,
lead a tolerably quiet life, but they
don’t amount to much, anti may meet
with bad luck any day. Among all
the sovereigns of Europe it is her Brlt
annic majesty alone wlio is always per
fectly serene.
In Africa there are no first-class sov
ereigns, and we make this remark here,
though it may enrage several of the
sultans in tho northern part of that
continent. In Asia there are only two
first-class sovereigns, the emperor of
China and the emperor of Japan, both
of whom seem to have a pretty good
time. As for the poor shah of Persia,
and as for the second-hand rulers in
India, who must lie low before their
British masters, they can only take life
as it comes. In all America, north aud
south, there is not a single royal sov
ereign.
Sweet Corn.
Genuine sweet com is one of the
things that city people—who stay in
the city—know nothing’ about that is
worth knowing. The “sweet corn" they
buy In the market, hours after it has
been gathered, has nearly If not quite
lost its saccharine quality, and is little
better than common field corn in the
milk. To be'enjoyed in all Its pristine
sweetness, sweet corn must be plucked
from Ihe stalk and dumped forthwith
into the pot. Then—if it is indeed
sweet com, and not a miserable pre
tender to that distinction—It is food for
the gods.
But how rarely one meets with genu
ine sweet com! Some years ago we
were entertained by a friend in Albany,
who regaled us with sweet com from
his garden. Such com we have never
tasted before nor since. Wo don’t know
the variety—our entertainer did not—
and seed that we obtained from him In
the fall and planted the following year
did not turn out nearly as well—per
haps on account of change of soil and
climate.
Every farmer’s table ought to be
abundantly supplied, during the season,
with this toothsome vegetable. There
ore several varieties, some earlier than
others, nnd of very unequal merit.
Among these the. black Mexican ranks
as one of the very best in flavor, its
color being the sole objection to it—
nnd for private consumption that
amounts to nothing. StoweH’s Ever
green stands also in the front rank for
quality, though no longer, as usually
grown, really “evergreen.”
Plant for a succession In carefully
prepared ground, give thorough culti
vation, and then enjoy the fruit of
your labor In feastfng on one of the
most delicious and wholesome products
of field or garden.—Mail and Express.
A Word About Bath Spouses.
A bath sponge Is a satisfactory toilet
article only when it is well cared for.
If it is put away half cleaned and drip
ping wet it will soon become offensive,
and then its restoration to cleanliness
is very difficult, lively time a bath
sponge is used It should be washed
with soap and warm water, rinsed in
cold water, and then squeezed, not
wrung, vigorously. In the summer it
should be hung in the open air, and
when possible in the sunshine. In win
ter it should be dried by artiiieial heat.
A sponge should never bn shut in a
box, and the best place to keep it is
on a hanging earthen tray or in an
open basket of wire. A good bathing
sponge has rather coarse port's, but is
strong and soft in texture. The most
expensive sponges, however, are tiny
ones, which have the very linest holes
and a silken texture. They are used
for bathing little children and by sur
geons.

Washington, July 1.—The President
left here at 4:20 yesterday afternoon
over the Pennsylvania ro.id for Huz
zard's Hay, Mass, lie will be absent
from tho capital three weeks or more,
his stay depending uponcircuiqstances.
Secretary Lamont accompanied the
president, as far as New York. The
president’s determination to leave tho
city was only reached this morning'
and his departure so suddenly loaves a
number of important appointments
agreed upon unsigned, and many sen
ators and congressmen who have re
cently arrived, in the lurch. It is un
derstood that tho president will trans
act only the most urgent public businoss
while at Buzzard’s Hay and what offi
cial announcements are to be made will
be given out at tho executive mansion
in Washington.
At 8 o’clock last evening the follow
ing proclamation was issued:
Kvkcutivk Mansion, Washington,
D. Of, June 30.—Whereas, The distress
and apprehension concerning the finan
cial situation which prevade all busi
ness circles have already caused great
loss and damage to our people, and
threaten to cripple our merchants, stop
tho wheels of manufacture, bring dis
tress and privation to our farmers, and
withhold from our workmen the wuge
of labor, and
Whereas, The prosent perilous con
dition is largely the result of a finan
cial policy which the executive branch
of the government finds embodied in
Unwise laws which must be executed
until repealed by congress.
Now, therefore, I, tlrovcr Cleveland,
in performance of a constitutional duty,
do by this proclamation, declare that
an extraordinary occasion requires the
convening of both houses of the con
gress of the United States at the Capi
tol in this city of Washington on tho
7th day of August next, at 12 o'clock,
noon, to the end that people may be re
lieved through legislation from present
and impending danger an.d distress.
All those entitled to act ns members
of the Fifty-third congress are required
to take notice of this proclamation and
attend at tho time and place above
stated.
Given under my hand and the seal of

ington, on the 30th day of June, in tho

Grover Cleveland.
The president had left directions for
the issuance of the proclamation before
his departure for Gray Gables. The
determination to call the extra session
the first week in August instead of the
first week in September, it is under
stood, was only definitely arranged at
yesterday morning's cabinet session,
after giving full weight to the numer
ous telegrams received from all parts of
the country urging this course. A con
sideration which caused the president
to change his mind was foreshadowed
in the remark made by one of his cabi
net officers two days ago, that if the
president received reasonable assurance
that there was a likelihood of a prompt
repeal of the so-called Mherman pur
chase law, he might be disposed to call
congress together earlier than he had
announced. It is inferred from the fact
that the president has done so that lie
considers that he has obtained the as
surance he desired.
Most of the cabinet members have
followed the president’s example and
left the city, or are leaving the city for
brief vacations. Those who remain say
the president's proclamation speaks for
itself and decline to discuss the situa
tion further.
It Vh a Surprise.
Washington, July 1.—There seem3
every reason to believe that all the
speculations as to the tinje of the meet
ing of congress indulged in prior to 1
p. m. yesterday were guess work. Some
of them, as it turns out cow, were
very lucky guesses, and others wete
equally unfortunate. It is almost con
clusive established that the calling of
an August session was not determined
upon until after midday, and conse
quently could not have been com
municated to any person in con
fidence or otherwise, days in advance.
The plain facts appear to be that the
disturbance of values arising from the
uncertainties of the situation grew so
alarming that Mr. Clevelandwas at last
compelled to acknowledge that ‘'the
unexpected contingencies necessitating
an earlier meeting of congress,'’ which
he spoke of in his celebrated interview
of June 5, had arrived. The action of
the British government in India had
brought matters to a crisis. Previous to
that startling event, Mr. Cleveland had
manifested a firm determination to ad
here to his plan of calling congress to
gether in September.
Uncle Sam’s Receipt* for the Tear Will
Be in Exces* of Ills Expenditure*.
Washington, July 1.—Treasury offi
cials are deep in the mystery of figures
today, closing up the vast money ac
counts of the government for the fiscal
year 1892-93. The figures will be offi
cially proclaimed tomorrow and will
show in round numbers that the total
receipts for the year have aggregated
8395.000,000, while the expenditures
will foot up $393.000,000, leaving a sur
plus of receipts above expenditures of
$2,000,000. This was the estimate sub
mitted by Secretary Foster to congress
as the probable surplus of the fiscal
year closed yesterday and results prove
it to have been prophetically accurate.
In this estimate, how^yer, Mr. Foster
did,mot take into account the payment
of the CheroWe Indian claimhf'$3,000,
000. Had this not been paid the re
ceipts would have been f 5,000,000 in
excess of the expenditures.
Mol Forsrtjf, bat Dlitruit that Affaots
tha Country.
Wasiunoton, July 3.— Ex-Senator,
John 11. Henderson of Missouri, who
has devoted long and careful study to
the matters of finance, has addressed to
Secretary Carlisle a communication in
which ho says: "I promised to glvo
you in writing the substance of my
statements made to you in conversa
tion touching the monetary condition
of the country.
“1 then expressed the belief that the
present stringency of 'our currency io
produced, not by any Inch or insuffi
ciency of our currencyH but by tho loss
of confidence produced among .business
men because of tho bad quality ftnil in
ferior character of a largo part of that
currency.
Mr. Henderson then gjvea a history
of our financial legislation from which
he says that neither individual • pros
perity nor commercial prosperity is con
trolled by the circulating medium and
that the present financial distress is
due entirety to the silver nets of 1878
anti of 1800. In conclusion he says:
“Of tho five of 80,000,000 of gold with
which wo begun In t879, none can now
be found in circulation. Whnt lias not
gone to foreign countries, enjoying the
blessing of a single standard, lias been
hoarded, not to re-appour until its hold
ers have some guarantee, if loaned,
that It will bo repaid in money equally
good. The gold certificates not already
forced upon tho government for re
demption arc no longer seen. Tho
United States notes for redemption
which the 8100,000,000 gold resorvo is
supposed to bo hold for by tho govern
ment, constitute tho best security of
national banks, and hencu the green
back is rapidly disappearing. Thb na
tional bank notes are nocossarily hold,
if possible, by the banks issuing them
fh fear that in the extremity of dis
tress their redemption may soon ho
asked in gold. Nothing is loft but sil
ver certificates and treasury notes. Tho
banks are unable to maintain their
lawful reserves, lienee they can glvo
no relief to the suffering community.
“The government treasury is de:
pleted of its surplus, Government ex
penditures exceed government receipts.
Extravagant appropriations, made upon
a silver basis, must now bo paid in a
medium of value. The heedless prom
ise to pay lias now run its own coarso
and its performance corues with suffer
ing and tears.
“What now, is the remedy?"
“First, tho customs duties should
hereafter he paid in gold alone.
“Second—The silver bullion in tho
government vaults should bo at oneo
sold for casli in gold from the in'ooecds
covered in the treasury.
“Third—Three per cent gold bonds
to the amount of 8300,000,000 should be
promptly sold and the proceeds trans
ferred to tho treasury.
“Fourth—A day should bo fixed, not
later than January 1, 1808, for the re
demption and payment in gold coin of
all circulating notes of every descrip
tion heretofore issued by the govern
ment.
“Fifth—At least half of the silver
dollars issued under the acts of 1.878
and 1890 should be sold as bullion and
the remainder minted into subsidiary
silver coins and made legal tender only
in payment of 810 or less.
“Sixth—Provision should be made
for the use of 8300,000,00') of gold bonds
for the purpose of banking, making tho
provisions as liberal as possible, con
sistent with safety, but under govern
ment supervision.
“Seventh—The basis of national
bankjng should be eularged so as to
permit the issue of circulating notes on
tho deposit of other than United States
bonds, the solvency of such bonds to bo
passed on by responsible government
officials.
“Eighth—All bank issues to be re
deemed in gold coin on demand.
“Ninth—All foreign gold coins should
be made a legal tender for debt, anil
receivable for government dues at their
value as fixed by law.
“Tenth—Prior to January 1, 1908,
the surplus funds of the treasury, cith
er from loans or collections, to bn
placed with the banks in such sections
of the country and in such amounts as
may bo determined by the secretary.
“It is not poverty, but distrust, that
afflicts tho country. Our fabric of
finance must be torn down and built
anew. It was conceived in error, and
every step increased the departure from
truth. The act of 1878 was dishonora
ble to the government and ruinous to
tho people. The act of 1800 was a mere
device to substitute silver for gold as a
standard of value. Iron or copper is
either more stable in value today than
silver.
“WeAccepted the bad advice of the
silver inflationists once, yea. twice.
The cup is too bitter to continue the
draught. They said that if America
coined silver, - England, France and
Germany would bo constrained to use
it and that silver would soon take tin
place of gold. On the contrary, its fall
lias been rapid and without intermis
sion. Those foreign governmenfs now
have our gold, and we are left with a
currency discarded by the whole world
and scarcely more valuable than cop
per.

sections quite frequently, all tlie roods
having to run extra trains sometimes
outlie same evening, while tho train,

A Smart Girl’s Lecture,
A 16-year-old girl reads a lecture to
the yong men in a Maine paper. She
exclaims: “Why do the youog men of V
Edgocomb do so much 'loafing? Ho to
work! Push aheadl I am but a young
girl. I have clothed myself and got
money in the bank, and only 10 years
old. I lay up more money every year
of my life than any boy or young man
within a radius of three miles of my >
home. When they get a dollar they go
to a dance and go home a dollar out.
My father is ablo to support me. but I
choose to support myself. I advise all
girls to cut clear of those loafing boys.
Give them a wide berth, and never
marry a man unless he is ablo to sup
port you. And never put your arm
throught the handle of a rum jug.”

“preachers," Every morning and even

woods. One takes a higher position
than tne rest and makes n signal wtth
his forepaw. At this signal the other* %
sit around him and listen. When the/
are all seated he begins to utter a se
ries of sounds. When he stops these
cries he makos another signal with his
paw, and the others cry out until ha ;
makes a third signal, upon which they
become silent again. This author, Mr. m
