vcr8ity Law School ho distinguishod

aumma cum laudo ovor glvcn by thia
school. IIo was ndmittcd to tho Suf
folk county bar in 1880, and tho ycar
followlng hls political caroor bogan
with IiIb olcction on an ludopendont
tlckot to tho Cambridgo city councll.
Ho waa afterward cboson uldortuau,
nnd tho activlty and nbillty displnyed
by tho young man na a roformor of
munlcipal affairs led to hls olcction In
1884, at tho ago of twonty-sovon, na
inayor of tho city. This position was
hold by him for four succcsaivo tertus.
Mr. Rusaoll'a noxt olovation in political
lifo was to tho govcrnorship. Ho was
choaon to that ofllco in 1891, acrviug
for throo consecutive torras. Dcclin
ing to atand for a fourth tonn ho ro
turncd to thc practico of tho law. Ho
was conspicuous at Ghicago among

Many peoplo nsk ua to cxplaiu whnt
10 to 1 mcau8.
They aro flgure8 of wcight. By tho
mint act of 1834, which, oxcopt an ro
garda silver dollara, is still in forcc,
ovory ownor of gold bullion nnd of ail
ver bullion was permiltcd to tako it to
tho mint in unlimitcd quantitics and
havo it coined, frcc of oxpcnsc, excopt
for rofining and for tho alloy uscd, into
silver dollars anu gold cnglcs nud irnc-
tions of nn eaglo, nt tho rato of sixtcen
timca ns many dollars for n givcn
wcight of gold ns for nn equal woight
of silver. That ia to aay, while 23.2:
graina of purc gold went to tho dollar
in gold, 3714; grains of puro silver were
required for u silver dollar. With tho
allov added it took 25.8 grains of Btand
nrd gold for tho dollar in gold, and 4124
grains of standard silver for ,tho silver
dollar. Tho provision of thia law, as to
silver, was ropcaieu in 8J, and inis
proviaion tho silverites now demand to
navo re-enacted.
As a matter of fact, nn ouuco of sil
ver waB worth in tho markets of tho
world, from 1834 to 1873, moro than
onc-Bixtccnth of an ounco of gold, tho
valuo in Europo bciug at tho rnto of
154 to 1. Conscquently, our silver
coiu waa exported aa fnat ns it was
coined, gold becamo tho only coin in
circulation, and in louJ smnll cliango
had bccomc so scarco that congress
authorized silver halveB and quartors
of n dollnr to bo coined, on governmont
nccount oxclusivoly, of less weight
than tho proportiouato parta of u full
dollar, so that two halvcs and four
quartors containcd only 381 graina of
standard silver, lnstcad of 412J grains
At tho preaont moment, tho markot
valuo of bilver bullion relativoly to that
of i'olil bullion is as about 31 to 1.
That is to say, ono ounco of gold ia cx
chanffeabloin tho markot for ihirty-ono
ouncos of silver. Ilenco, if the law
of 1834 relating to a'tlver woro re-en
actcd, the dollar would sink in valuo
vcry ncarly one-half, becauao under
free and unlimitcd coinago, Bilver coin
would bo worth no moro than silver
bullion. The reaaon that tho silver
dollars now in circulation rcmain cqual
in valuo to dollars in gold ia that tho
quantity of thcm ia limited, and they
nrc rocolveu by tno Eovornment on
tho ennie footing aa gold in paymont of
dutlcs anu taxcs.

According to their plnn, cvery man

am not rogula'r in my democracy, but I
contend that whon a man follows tho

I am not in favor of this third-lickot

Wo wero fortunnto ouough to wltnoss
ono of Iheeo cclcbrntlons in tho cnthc

Itnlinn wrltor of noto anye " It was so
grand that I nover spoak of it without
unconscloualy nssuming tho tono nnd
mannor of Salvinl in Samsou." I am
aorry to say wo could not sharo hia on-
tuualaara. An eartnquoKe somo years
ago solnjurcd It that tho intcrior is dia
Qgurcd with ecoffolding; and thoso who
aoo it now rcmcmbor less tho lofly
nrches nnd tho dark bcnuty of Murillo's
chcrubs than tho rough beatus and lad-
Uers tnnt brcnk ovory vistn. As tno
Bceno of tho religious dnnco, howevor,
it wns Bomcthlng nover to bo forgottou.
Tho church was uark lt was twl-
light, and only ouo chapel was illu-
minatcd. A crowu 01 Kneenug women
fllled tho aislcs. A fow prieata stood
oround tho altar, and beforo it woro
two rows of boys, nbout ton or twolvo
years of ngo, drossed in tho Spnnish
costumo of tho middlo nges, with tights
nnd plumed hats. Tho music of vio
lins broko tho profound ailence, and
tho row8 of boys bogan to advauco nnd
retrent, to miuglo nnd bow, in n aort of
contrn dnnco. Pre8ontly, without paus
ing iu their alow, graceful movcmonts,
thoy sang n low, harmonioua chant.
Tho aound of tho little voiccs in the
great vault, tho sightof tho little creat
urcs beforo tho grcat ultnr, tho serious
etatellncsa of their movemcnts, tho
quniut costumo, tho kneeliug throng,
the Burroundlng gloom, produccd nn
impresaion na reverentinl na that of a
praycr.
Tho story is told that ono of tho for
mer nrchbiahopa of Scville, who sh u!d
evidently havo boen born iu Purituni
cal daya, objccted to tho dauce ns pro
fanc, nnd ordorcd that it bc dlscontln
ued. Thia nrouacd such oppositiou,
not only from the nuthoritics of tho
cathedral but nmong tho inhabitauts of
Seville, that the question waa referred
to tho popo. The latter expressed his
inability to judgo without having seon
the danco; accordingly the entiro troop
of choir boys waa conveyed to Itomo
and thc performanco given. His holi
ness emilcd nnd thought it quito un
objcctionablc; but to pucify tho in
exorablo archbisliop, ho decrced that
tho danco ahould contiuuo only until
tho clothea tho boya thcn had on should
bo worn out. Thia was cquolly eatis
factory to thc astutc outhoritics of tho
cathedral. Tho costumea wero used
only ou special occasiona, onco or twico
n yenr; they wero cnretuiiy waicucu,
and when nn nrticlo becamo threadbaro
it wns replaced at once. So that nl
though tho dcereo is still binding, until
tho prcsent dny tho costumcs havo
never becn entirely worn out, and prob
ubly never will be.
In overy city, in cvery town, in tho

Very difforent aro they, in drcea and

that stood out liko the skirts of n balli t

nnd tbo music to, which they mnrch,
