The Gold lleaerre. Waitisotojj, Sept. 15. Tho net cash in tlio treasury at the close of business yesterday was 8127,102,441, of which f.V3,049,S24 represented the gold reserve. The gold rcserro has been steadily climbing upward for tho past month. On August 8 U cached its lowest point in the record of the department, 852, 189,500. Since that data it has In creased almost 85,000,000 and iho in crease has largely allayed tho fears of the treasury oftlclals. During the past neck It has increased over 81,100,000. This Increase is accounted for by the surrender of gold voluntarily by tho banks and its exchange for small notes. During tho past week 8210,000 have been so exchanged. The balance of the Increaso is due to the purchase, of bullion at Helena, Denver and Char lotte, N. P. The largo increase In tho output of gold in Colorado and Mon tana piles up the gold reserve, as it finds Its way directly to tho assay oQlccs of tho government. HeTcnue Itecelpta Washisoton, Sept. 17. The revenues of the government have fallen almost 813,000,000 during tho first fourteen days of this month as compared with tho last half of August. Tho receipts from customs for tho first fourteen days of tills month amounted to 8V 227,000 (in round numbers) against SO, JjO.OOO for the last hajf of August, while tho receipts fromTintcrnat reve nue were but 82,202,000, compared with S20,C34,O00 for the latter half of August. Tho lo&s is due to tho enormous sums paid on whisky withdrawn for consump tion just before tho new tariff act In creasing tho tax from 00 cents to 81.10 pcrgallonwcntlntooffect. The receipts from Internal revenuo for the first four teen days of tho month dwindled to 82,037,000 about 8450,000 below tho normal and were not counterbalanced by an luereuso In tho receipts from customs duo to heavy Importations un der tho reduced rotes immediately fol lowing the enactment of tho new law, the customs receipts Increasing only about 13,000,000. Tho receipts from In ternal revenue nro now confined al most entirely to tlio tax paid on beer, cigars, cigarettes and tobacco, and average nlout 8-50,000 per day, while for July and August, when so much whisky was being withdrawn, thoy averaged over 81,000,000 dally. It Is not expected tho receipts from the tax on alcoholio spirits will reach normal again. before January 1. ISM. This will havo' tho effect, it is believed, of keeping tho receipts ot tho treasury down to about two-thirds of tho nor mal, or In other words to about 822, 000,000 per month until January 1. Tltis estimate leaves out of account auy large increase In tho importations aris ing from tho operations of tho new tariff law. Tho expenditures have averaged about $34,000,000, but without the sugar bounty, whtelt is now a thing of tho post, thoy will be reduced to about 841,000,000. Tor tho next four months it is estimated that tho receipts will bo about 884.000,000 and tho ex penditures about 81? l.OOQ.OQfS I'olnt au llc. an annex of Murray bay, the well-known summer report about 70 tulles below cjuebec, was de stroyed by lire at a low of 900,000, Ymita, COL.

A holiday nnder canvass can bo made a remarkably pleasant experience If congenial splrlU compose tho party, but there Is a common mistake made by too many of those who take to tho woods at a time when fish aro the only lawful quarry. I refer to the practice ot taking guns and rllles to camp when tho law forbids th t kilting of any wine. There Is no sens In carrying i wuvon which U not to 'bo used, and I know cases where the fact of one belrur with in reach has inHrie a lawbreaker of a man who meant no harm, bat wm tempted by an unexpected cshsnee 't unlawful game.
