This sum rests simply on credit and not on security of Intrinsic value. The same thing is true in regard to much of the silver coinage, to the extent of about one-half of its face value. Take last year for illustration the coining value of the silver produced was while the commercial value was only $109,408,800. This is a difference of $105,835,900. The total sum of the world's money is made up of $4,360,000,000 in gold, in silver and $3,500,000,000 of paper.

One of the most interesting features of the great strike of engineers in England has been pointed out by Professor Bryce, the distinguished author of "The American Commonwealth." Professor Bryce has been looking into the matter, and says he finds that several branches of British engineering have come to the United States as a result ef the paralysis of industry caused by the strike.

The "witch" had so far recovered, that when the troops went into Zuni, she was able to accompany them back to Las Lunas, where she gave her testl-money. When the troops arrived they found that Nal-yu-che and Na-to-tse, two of the high priests, had given themselves up to the sheriff, and on the following day the other Priests of the Bow, Ken-sl and Moorm-asl, surrendered, without a word, to the sov under the window where she sat, and, Don't be fooled with a mackintosh or rubber coat.
