GOLD OF THE WORLD. Interesting Figures From the Director of the Mint at Washington. That gold exists in large quantities in the newly discovered Klondike district is sufficiently proved by the large amount recently brought out by the steamship companies and miners returning who went into the district within the last eighteen months. So far $1,500,000 in gold from the Klondike district has been deposited at the mints and assay offices of the United States, and from information now at hand there are substantial reasons for believing that from $3,000,000 to $4,000,000 additional will be brought out by the steamers and returning miners sailing from St. Michaels the last of September or early in October next. One of the steamship companies states that it expects to bring out about $2,000,000 on its steamer sailing from St. Michaels Sept. 30 and has asked the government to have a revenue cutter act as a convoy through the Bering sea. In view of the facts above stated I am justified in estimating that the Klondike district will augment the world's gold supply in 1897 nearly $6,000,000. The gold product of the Dominion of Canada for 1896, as estimated by Dr. G. M. Dawson, director of the geological survey of that country, was $2,810,000. Of this sum the Yukon placers, within British territory, were credited with a production of $355,000. The total product of that country for 1897 has, therefore, been estimated at $10,000,000, an increase over 1896 of $7,200,000. From this the richness of the newly discovered goldfields of the Klondike is evident. In this connection it is important to know what will be the probable increase in the several countries of the world, and for the purpose of comparison, based upon information received, the following table of the gold product of the United States, Australia, Africa, Mexico, the Dominion of Canada, Russia and British India for 1896 and the estimated product of these countries for 1897 is here given: | Country | Increase | | :--- | :--- | | United States | $83,000,000 | | Australia | $46,250,000 | | Africa | $44,000,000 | | Mexico | $7,000,000 | | Canada | $2,810,000 | | Russia | $22,000,000 | | British India | $5,825,000 | The world's gold product for 1896 is estimated to have been $205,000,000.

Russia's demand for gold is unbounded. Austria-Hungary cannot get enough, and so of every other country in Europe Japan wants gold now that it has adopted the gold standard. Even China shows an inclination to follow the example of its conqueror, but that, of course, is out of the question. All South America is crying for gold. Chile wants it. Colombia wants it. Peru wants it. Venezuela has some, but wants more Central America wants it. Even Mexico, the last stronghold of silver, is feeling the burdensomeness of its present system in the height of its rate of exchange. It Saves the Groupy Children.

LARGER QUARTERS REQUIRED. A Growing Institution Makes an Important Move. The two upper floors of the new Gardner & Zellner building now under ADJUTANT GENERAL'S REPORT at the G. A. R. encampment Buffalo last week contained three figures: The total membership of the good standing June 30, 1896; posts with 340,610 members; December 31, 1896; 7276 posts; 412 members; on June 30; posts with 319,456 members; gain by muster in was 10,534; fer; 4381; by reinstatement; 13 delinquent report; 6807; totals were: By dea The world's gold product for 1896 is estimated to have been $205,000,000. In justification of the above estimate of the increase in the countries mentioned, I may remark that of the United States is based upon the deposits at the mints and assay offices for the first six months of the year, which clearly indicate a largely increased production, and that the increase for the year will aggregate $7,000,000. The gold product of Africa for 1896 is estimated to have been $44,000,000. For the first six months of 1897 the output of the Witwatersrand mines, as shown by official returns, was 1,338,431 ounces, an increase of 333,928 ounces, as compared with the first six months of 1896. There is no doubt that the rate of production in the Witwatersrand mines will be maintained for the remainder of the year, and their output of gold for 1897 will be fully $12,000,000 greater than that of 1896. The deposits of gold at the Australian mints for the first five months of the year clearly indicate a substantial gain in 1897 over 1896. Upon the basis of the deposits for the first five months at the mints the Australian Insurance and Banking Record for the month of June estimates that the gold product for 1897 of the several colonies will aggregate 2,700,000 ounces, of the value of $52,500,000. This would be an increase of $5,750,000 over the product of 1896. The gold product of Mexico for 1896 is estimated to have been $7,000,000. The information received indicates that the product for 1897 will approximate $9,000,000, an increase of $2,000,-000. The Russian product for 1896 was $22,000,000; for 1897 it is estimated at $25,000,000; an increase of $3,000,000. The gold product of British India for 1897, from official information received, is estimated at $5,825,000. The returns of the mines for the first six months of 1897 indicate an increased production over 1896 of $1,200,000. From the data given it is safe to estimate that the seven countries above named will show an increase in their gold output for 1897 over 1896 of $38,700,000, and that the world's product for 1897 can therefore be estimated at not less than $240,000,000. There is no doubt that the world's product of gold will continue to increase for a number of years to come, as new mines will be opened up in all parts of the world, and with improved appliance for mining and methods of extracting the gold contained in the ores, I believe that by the close of the present century the world's gold product will closely approximate if not exceed $300,- Now as to the influence of such addition to the world's gold. The influence it will exert depends mainly on how many years the Klondike district shall continue a producer and how large its annual increment to the world's existing stock of gold shall be. There is every reason to believe that Alaska and the adjacent British territory are possibly as rich in gold as was California or Australia when first discovered. I have estimated that the world’s gold product for 1896 is estimated to have been $205,000,000. In justification of the above estimate of the increase in the countries mentioned, I may remark that of the United States is based upon the deposits at the mints and assay offices for the first six months of the year, which clearly indicate a largely increased production, and that the increase for the year will aggregate $7,000,000. The gold product of Africa for 1896 is estimated to have been $44,000,000.

There is no doubt that the rate of production in the Witwatersrand mines will be maintained for the remainder of the year, and their output of gold for 1897 will be fully $12, Now as to the influence of such addition to the world's gold. The influence it will exert depends mainly on how many years the Klondike district shall continue a producer and how large its annual increment to the world's existing stock of gold shall be. There is every reason to believe that Alaska and the adjacent British territory are possibly as rich in gold as was California or Australia when first discovered. I have estimated that the Klondike district will in 1897 produce $8,000,000 worth of gold. It will add to this product from year to year, probably, for a minimum of one or two decades. And whether the gold comes from American or British territory is a matter of indifference, except to the owners and to some extent to the countries producing it. The effect of the increase on the economic condition of mankind, on the rate of discount, the rate of interest, the rate of wages, on prices and monetary policies, of a newly discovered goldfield of wonderful richness is the same, whether the field be located in American, British or Chinese territory. Now, the first influence that the new addition to the world's existing stock of gold will have will be felt by silver. In fact, it has already been felt by it. Gold is the natural competitor—we might almost say antagonist—of silver as a monetary medium, and every ounce of gold newly placed on the market deprives from it to 35 ounces of silver of a possible employment as money that it might have. The new additions to the world's stock of gold, whether they come from the Klondike, Cripple Creek or the Transvaal, from India, Australia or Russia, will, according to the ideas of R. E. Preston, Director of the Mint, render bimetallism by the United States alone more difficult and more improbable than ever and will even seriously imperil the slender chances that international bimetallism now has. There is, in fact, at the present time, no limit to the demand for gold. The tendency of nations is toward the single gold standard. Apart from the United States, there is not, I believe, a country on the face of the earth that would not adopt gold monometallism if it had the ability to do so, with silver as a subsidiary or token coinage. There is not a country in Europe with any full legal tender silver coins but would replace them by gold coins if it could do so without too great a sacrifice. Germany would gladly put $100,000,000 in circulation instead of its silver thalers. France and all the countries plant for several days, and her husband calmed her ruffled feelings sufficiently for the dinner to be eaten in good temper. I noticed that she ate an unusually large amount of soft scrambled eggs. Fifteen minutes after we left the dining room she was a corpse. She died in frightful convulsions before the nearest doctor reached the house. The doctor was unable to ascribe the cause. A few months later I was visiting a brother in Connecticut, and one of his sons died under similar circumstances. Before breakfast one morning the boy, who was about 15 years old, had a fight with a neighbor's boy. Before his anger had subsided my nephew was called to breakfast. He ate four soft boiled eggs. Had I known as much then as I do now I would have prevented it. In less than a half hour after breakfast the boy died with exactly the same symptoms that were present when my friend's wife died. This set me to thinking about the matter. "It wasn't long after this before a Beacon hill friend of mine expired suddenly after a meal. The doctors, as usual, were divided in opinion on the cause of death. Some of them contended that it was heart failure, whatever that is, and others are still holding out that it was apoplexy. Inquiry by me developed the fact that my friend was very angry when he sat down at table and that he ate five eggs. With these developments I searched no further for the cause of his death. He was angry, he ate eggs, and he died. If these are not links in the chain of cause and effect, the human intellect is incapable of logical thinking."—St. Louis Republic. Wrecked on Boston Shoals.

A PIONEER SHOEMAKER. WORKING AT HIS TRADE ALTHOUGH EIGHTY-FIVE YEARS OLD. Mr. James McMillen, of Champaign, Has Followed the Shoemaker’s Trade All His Life—Every Day at His Bench Working with Apparently the Same Vigor as a Young Man—A Sketch of His Life. From the Gazette Champaign, Ill. At the advanced age of eighty-five years, James McMillen, of 112 West Washington street, is one of the most active men in Champaign, Illinois. Mr. McMillen is a pioneer citizen of the city, and his form is as familiar on the streets as that of any citizen of the town. All his life Mr. McMillen has followed the trade of shoemaker, and every day finds him at his bench, bending over his work with apparently the same vigor he commanded when he was a young man. He has a little shop on North Wright street, in the vicinity of the University of Illinois, and he is the official shoemaker, as it were, for the students of that institution. About a year ago Mr. McMillen was absent from his bench for several weeks, and his familiar form was missed along the streets. The local newspapers announced that he was dangerously ill. For months he was a sufferer, but finally he appeared again at his shop, and has lost but very few days since then and none, perhaps, on account of sickness. His friends were surprised to see him out again, and they were more surprised when he told them the cause of his recovery. There was no small amount of local interest in his case, and a reporter visited him, to have him relate the story. “I feel,” said the spry old gentleman, “that I owe my life to Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. Something like a year ago it appeared to me that I was almost a physical wreck. I was suffering from a disease of the kidneys. A thick scurf had formed on the bottoms of my feet and my ankles were terribly swollen and inflamed. In fact, they reached such a condition that I could not walk, and it looked as though my days were numbered. "I read in the newspaper testimonials from people who claimed to have been cured of kidney trouble by the use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People, and thought that it would do me no harm to give them a trial. I bought a box of them at the drug store and began taking them according to directions. It may seem strange, but it is a fact that I felt the benefit of them almost as soon as I began to take them. After I had taken a few pills my urinal discharges became almost as black as tar and I noticed at the same time that the pain and soreness were leaving my kidneys." "A few days later the swelling began to go out of my ankles, and at the end of five weeks it had entirely disappeared, taking with it that terrible scurf which had formed on the bottoms of my feet and caused me so much trouble. I continued to gather my lost strength, and at the end of six weeks I felt entirely recovered and resumed my work at the shop. I think I took from four to five boxes of the pills and have taken none since." Mr. McMillen’s residence on West Washington street, is more than a mile distant from his shop, but nearly every day he walks the entire distance, morning and evening, and he could not do this if that swelling still existed. Mr. McMillen has no backwardness in talking of the merits of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People contain in a condensed form, all the elements necessary to give new life and flesh to the blood and restore shattered nerves. Pink Pills are sold by all dealers, or will be sent post paid on receipt of price, 50 cents a box, or six boxes for $3.50 (they are never sold in bulk or by the 100), by addressing Dr. Williams’ Medicine Company, Schenectady, N.Y.

DISSATISFIED BEET GROWERS. From the Pomona Times. The sugar beet growers of Orange county have become much dissatisfied with the business at the prices received for their beets.

AN ENGLISH BORN WESTERNER WHOSE SPEECH WAS A SPELL. His Memorable Effort Which Charmed the Reporters Beyond the Power to Record What He Said — His Career on the Pacific Coast and His Death. Only once have I listened to a speaker who could make a newspaper reporter forget his occupation, and that man was Colonel Edward D. Baker of California, Oregon and the nation. Colonel Baker was born in England and was brought to America while a child by his parents. His father was a weaver and obtained work in a Philadelphia mill. Young Baker also worked in the mill when he got old enough. Weaving was not to his taste, and as soon as he could he went to Illinois and without the aid of much schooling educated himself, got admitted to the bar and began the practice of the law in middle Illinois, riding in the circuit with Lincoln and winning fame as an orator. He went to Mexico as colonel of an Illinois regiment and won fame at Cerro Gordo. Being attracted to California at an early day, he settled in San Francisco and speedily became famous as a jury lawyer, particularly in criminal cases. So great was his reputation as an orator that the miners would leave their claims and go miles over the mountain trails to hear him speak. Early in 1860 Colonel Baker determined to try to be elected a United States senator from Oregon. It was a most audacious scheme for a resident of one state to attempt to become a senator from an adjoining state, where he had not even attempted to gain a residence. It would require a little more cheek for a New York man to try to become senator from Connecticut than it did for Colonel Baker to undertake to become senator from Oregon. The very audacity of the scheme commended it to Colonel Baker, and he entered upon the work with great energy. He stumped Oregon before the June election and boldly proclaimed himself a candidate for the senate as a Republican against the celebrated General Joe Lane. The legislature met in the fall, and after a hot fight Colonel Baker was elected senator, with a noted wit, James W. Nesmith, as his colleague. The news of the election of Senator Baker preceded his return by only a few days, causing great joy to his friends in California, who decided to ADJUTANT GENERAL'S REPORT. Adjt.-Gen. Charles F. Burmester's report at the G. A. R. encampment at Buffalo last week contained the following figures: The total membership of the order in good standing June 30, 1896, was 7302 posts, with 340,610 members; on December 31, 1896, 7276 posts, with 327,-412 members; on June 30, 1897, 7106 posts, with 319,456 members. The gain by muster in was 10,534; by transfer, 4381; by reinstatement, 11,207; from delinquent report, 6807; total, 32,929. The losses were: By deaths, 7515; honorable discharge, 1257; transfer, 4642; suspension, 30,771; dishonorable discharge, 411; by delinquent reports, 8981; by surrender of charter, 411; by delinquent reports, 8981; by surrender of charter, 411; by delinquent reports, 8981; by surrender of charter, 411; by delinquent reports, 8981; by surrender of charter, 411; by delinquent reports, 8981; by surrender of charter, 411; It will be seen from the above that a new element of loss has introduced itself, which might be said to mark the "begining of the end." The "loss by surrender of charter." One by one the "boys" have dropped away, joined the "posts" on the other shore, until there are not enough left to keep up the organization and the charter is surrendered, and the remaining few affiliate with another post in the neighborhood, or remain afloat with a transfer card. "It appears to me," said the adjutant-general, "that right here is where good work can be accomplished with the system of 'outposts' provided by the last national encampment to keep these 'orphan' members within the organization." The following table shows the membership by States June 30, 1897: | Posts. Members | | | :--- | :--- | | Alabama | 13 | | Arizona | 9 | | Arkansas | 76 | | California and Nevada | 100 | | Colorado and Wyoming | 69 | | Connecticut | 67 | | Delaware | 16 | | Florida | 24 | | Georgia | 15 | | Idaho | 16 | | Illinois | 577 | | Indiana | 485 | | Indian Territory | 8 | | Iowa | 434 | | Kansas | 403 | | Kentucky | 88 | | Louisiana & Mississippi | 30 | | Maine | 165 | | Maryland | 53 | | Massachusetts | 212 | | Michigan | 383 | | Minnesota | 173 | | Missouri | 385 | | Montana | 18 | | Nebraska | 274 | | New Hampshire | 92 | | New Jersey | 111 | | New Mexico | 9 | | New York | 644 | | North Dakota | 20 | | Ohio | 629 | | Oklahoma | 45 | | Oregon | 61 | | Pennsylvania | 606 | | Potomac | 18 | Rhode Island | 26 | South Dakota | 78 | Tennessee | 82 | Texas | 41 | Utah | 5 | Vermont | 112 | Virginia & N.

The President of the United States was refused admission to the Grand Army camp at Buffalo Friday morning although he had come at the special invitation of the veterans and everything was in readiness to receive him. The incident proved one of great mortification among the members of the local committee. To the President, at first it was a trifle annoying, but a few minutes after the episode he was having a hearty laugh over it, and excusing the official who refused him entrance by saying that the man was "perfectly right to obey orders, no matter who demanded admittance." The reason for the refusal was that the sentry had been ordered to admit no carriages to the camp. How's This?

To give you an idea of the power of Colonel Baker's oratory it is enough to relate that Mr. Hart, the case hardened reporter I have mentioned, became so absorbed in the matter and so fascinated by the manner of his orator that he forgot his duty to his newspaper, forgot to take notes, forgot his surroundings and at one climax in the speech jumped from his seat, ran out on the stage, grabbed Colonel Baker round the neck and, amid the tremendous cheering of the great audience, yelled: "By God, sir, you are right!" The instant Hart spoke he woke up and, realizing the spectacle he had made of himself, rushed from the stage amid the wild and long continued cheering of the vast audience. None of the reporters on that stage was ever able to write out more than an occasional paragraph of that two hours' speech made by Colonel Baker, the only one I ever heard him make. Soon afterward he came east to fascinate great crowds in New York by his patriotic utterances, to electrify the senate and the country by his impromptu reply to Breckinridge, delivered while in the mud stained uniform in which he had just come from the field of battle and to die fighting for his adopted country at Ball's Bluff.-P.

Of the efficacy of physic Queen Elizabeth had always been skeptical. Now, 10 or 12 physicians came to the palace, each promising, "with all manner of asseveration," "her perfect and easy recovery" if she would follow a simple course of treatment. But they spoke in vain. Nor could the protests of councilors, divines and waiting women induce her to accept medical assistance. Her melancholy was "settled and irremovable," and she had no wish to prolong it by lengthening out her life. She only broke silence to murmur, "I am not sick." You may hunt the world over and you will not find another medicine equal to Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy for bowel complaints. It is pleasant, safe and reliable. For sale by P.

Of the efficacy of physic Queen Elizabeth had always been skeptical. Now, 10 or 12 physicians came to the palace, each promising, "with all manner of asseveration," "her perfect and easy recovery" if she would follow a simple course of treatment. But they spoke in vain. Nor could the protests of councilors, divines and waiting women induce her to accept medical assistance. Her melancholy was "settled and irremovable," and she had no wish to prolong it by lengthening out her life. She only broke silence to murmur, "I am not sick. I feel no pain and yet I pine away." She was asked whether she had any secret cause of grief. She replied that she knew of nothing in the world worthy of troubling her. At length by force (it is said) she was lifted from the cushions and put to bed. Her condition underwent no change. Gradually those about her realized that "she might live if she would use means," but that she would not be persuaded, and princes, as they tearfully acknowledged, cannot be coerced. Nevertheless, until the third week they looked forward to a renewal of her old vivacity and the dispersal of her lethargy. But during the week it was perceived that the ground she had lost could only be recovered by miracle. On Wednesday, March 23, her councillors entered her bedchamber to receive her last instructions. She had none to give. The archbishop and bishops offered up prayer at her bedside and she derived some comfort from their ministrations. In the evening she sank into a quiet sleep, such as she had sought without avail for nearly a month. She never woke again. "About 8 o'clock in the morning of March 24 she departed this life, mildly like a lamb, easily like a ripe apple from the tree." When she was examined after death, her physicians reported that "she had a body of firm and perfect constitution, likely to have lived many years." Death was in fact, prepared to the last to bargain with her for a few more years of life, but his terms implied an enfeeblement of those faculties on whose unrestricted exercise her queenly fame seemed to her to depend. By refusing to be party to the truce she invited her overthrow, but she never acknowledged herself vanquished. She made no will, she bestowed no gift on any of the faithful attendants who wept beside her deathbed, and she declined to guide her council in the choice of a successor.—Cornhill Magazine.
