More Cheering Testimony. Trustworthy testimony to the effect
that the cause of free coinage (rains ground is accumulating. Mr. YV. A. I'lark, who has recently returned from llurope, said in an interview which the Jluttr Mini r printed yesterday morning: T h e f t is » growing sentiment all over Kuropo in favor of bimetallism. I talked w ith a number of leading manufacturers of Kngland, among them Mr. Mattheison, the well-known Mppfsf manufacturer, and they all agreed that a return to a bimetallic standard is a mere matter of time. They lind that it h> impossible to conduct the business of nations on a single gold basis. On the silver question the signs are very encouraging."
Mr. Clark is a frequent visitor to Kurope and the continent, and his acquaintance abroad with men in business life gives value to his testimony respecting foreign opinion on the silver question. All that is transpiring in Kurope may properly be accepted in corlirmation of the opinion that the nations are soon to return to a financial system which will provide full function for silver.
On this question a letter lately written to a friend by Senator liubois and limited in the Silt Laltat Ti ihiim is suggestive. The senator says:
The sliver situation Is s peculiar one here. Sentiment l« chaimlni; very f ist. It In dawning <m the minds of Eastern rieoplc that the rlnati-r ta l system Is rcspousllile for the present Industrial condition of tiio country The at t i tude el l.(Hlt;e of Massachusetts shows the eliaDjte thai is ipilns; on. H ie | iolllleiaiis also recognize that if one of the . n- ! parlies eomes o u t bipiarely for free coinage pledges a n d t he o i l ier great parly straddles on the ipiestion, the free coinage pa r i \ u i l l swiwp the eoimtry. In my judgment, the trend of events- In Eurorie and this reunif y makes the outlook for silver more hopeful than II has la-en since ls;a. Whl ln this is tin-n-ai c i i i dUlon , evt-rylhlug Is In more or less ot » i haultc -tale.

While this Is not very satisfactory, for the present we lielieva that haste wi l l he made nulcker lu this way.
The populists of Montana propose to take the lie-Id early. They have issued tln-ir call for a state convention which will be held in the city of Deer Lodge on Monday, June - \ Populist county committees are requested to hold county conventions June K, for the election of delegates to the state convention. Pursuant to the request of the state committee, the S T A N K A U I V
prints the call for the state convention. A good deal (a! talk, apparently of an unauthorized sort, is in circulation ro-K p e c t i n g political fusions. On that score the llutte BptUutder Mid last Saturday that it is opposed to fusion in the belief thai the populists have nothing to gain by it.
May and the Stars. Alter quite a period of depression
and Inactivity, superstition is fast picking up again. The statement is made in all seriousness and upon what is said to lu e x c e l l e n t authority that the date for the Iteale-lilaine wedding was fixed for last Monday, April in deference to the bride, "who wished to avoid the traditional ill luck that is supposed t o attend weddings that take place in May." Modem superstition seems to be taking this form, regard for particular times and seasons; a fact traceable, probably, to t i n - monthly announcements of certain London astrologers, who seem to be the development and otitgrowlh of the weather prophets. Astrology has revised everywhere, its professors abound in all the larger cities and are catching most of the trade that has heretofore gone to the spirit mediums. Perhaps theos-optiy, more or less directly, has had u g o o d deal to do with the boom in astrology and the contemporaneous decline In spiritualism.
It may be of interest to know that the stars are looking down on the I'nited states with compassion,and are arranging a series of pleasant surprises for us. The month of May, we are assured, is going to pull America out of the hole in great style. Agriculture will thrive, business will be brisk, trade will increase all along the line, strikes will be amicably settled and
prosperity in large measures restored, nut this good fortune, mind you. is for the western hemisphere only. In Kurope things are going to be rather worse than ever. Trade will languish in Kngland particularly, and toward the close of the month strikes will increase and multiply. A gloomier picture could hardly lie drawn than Kn-gland's forecast for the month of May: "Saturn speaks 111 for finance, and taxation is likely to increase; there will also lie a falling off in the revenue returns; failures will occur, and the condition of trade and money generally will be very unsatisfactory. In traveling some serious disasters will occur, and fraud and theft will be more than usually prevalent in the postolllce. Schools and places of amusement will suffer; much sickness may be expected during the early part of the mouth, and some very sudden deaths. The accidental position of Venus denotes many marriages, chielly of people in high life, or perhaps royalty."
The present month, moreover, will have a strong tendency to be highly disastrous to all persons born on or about April i>, May 3, May Hi, or Octo-lier l i Such persons are cautioiii'd to be extremely carettil in all their acts during May, and on no account to he-gin any important undertaking, get married or go on a long journey before tht) spell is over. OM cannot be too conservative when thoro is a conihiiia-of the whole universe against him.
The Illinois supremo court has handed down a decision declaring tin-ticket scalers' act of that state constitutional. In one or two other states the court of last resort has decided just the other way. The last legislature of M o n t , m a passetl a similar act, the constitutionality of which, we believe, has not yet been tested. -All these acts, it Is understood, are practically the same, the text of the bills having lieen prepared by the railroad companies "In concerted action. With such a law in force in ono stato and not in the next, more or less confusion will follow both to the traveling public and the railroads themselves.
The height of the Coxey movement seems to have been reached Saturday when seven enthusiastic cnmmouweal-ers startetl from II irrodsburg, Ky., bound for Washington in a balloon. They took along a lot of compasses anil maps, together with six days' provisions and everything to make them comfortable, and it they do'not have a high old time of it moving on W ashington it will not be their fault, but that of the balloon. If they can steer it with sufficient precision, they should make it a point to light right on lop of the dome of the capitol, which would serve as an admirable ros'.rnin for the orators of UH party, lialloons have been utilized in war and their serviceability to the army of peaco readily suggests itself.
The sheriff of Allegheny county. Pa., is in a dilemma, l i e has got to hang a man named Hill, who killed a Mrs. Ilot/.ler last fall, (in the night of the murder Hill was found lying I K S,do the dead woman, with his throat cut from ear to ear. With the aid of a silver tube w hich was piaced permanently in l t i B neck, Hill recovered. The position of the wound in Hill's neck is such that if a rope around his neck is drawn taut it w ill slip above the wound, and he could continue to breathe through the opening below the rope. If, in order to carry out the sentence of the court, the sheriff p r e sumes to take out the tube or to stop it up, he will kill Hill in a manner not a l i o wed by law, and will himself be liable to the charge of murder, lb-has got to break Hill's neck, but t h e art of hanging has not yet been brought to the point where dislocation of tne vertebrae is rendered absolutely certain. The tribe of Hills is a hard one to down anyway.

The new Spring hats are covered with roses. So will
Rex Flour give bloom to the cheeks. It cures that tired
feeling, helps nervousness and derives all its good quail,
ties from the selected Hard Spring Wheat from which it ia
made. Ask any grocer for it no matter where you live.
REX FLOUR Is bound to be a household word on account of its health
giving qualities.
