A Wonderful Island:

Men have often tried to rival nature
on her own ground. One remarkable
scene of such effort is still sought to by
tourists in Lake Maggiore, in northern
Italy, adjoining Switzerland. In
Lake Maggiore lie the islands
belonging to the Borromean family,
among which is "Isola Bella" an en-
chanted ground well worthy of name.
Two hundred years ago the island was
a barren rock to-day, thanks to the
freaks of a spendthrift nobleman, it is
ga JOY forever" Ten terraces, built III
massive stone piers rise out of the water;
earth of sufficient depth to grow the
largest trees was brought there, and
these many years it has been little
forest of luxurious vegetation for every
cline. There flourish the camphor and
the india rubber trees, the bread fruit
and the banana, the black bamboo and
the American aloe, the cedar of Leba-
non, the magnolia the date palm laden
with fruit, and camellias fifteen feet
high. Every step brings one into con-
tact with new beauties, while statues
and wondrous works in stone mingle
everywhere with the living green ivies,
honey suckles, trumpet-creepers and a
wealth of ferns and creeping plants.
The ''spendthrift nobleman" who pre- =
petrated all this magniticence was
Count Vitaliano Borromeo, a descend
ant of the celebrated philanthropist,
Archbishop Charles Borromeo, one of
the Saints of the Roman calendar.

SENSATION EXPLODED.

The report that million of fraud
ulent national currency is afoat is with
out substantial foundation. The facts
are these: The act of June 20, 1874,
requires all national banks to deposit 5
per cent. of their issue with the Treas
urer of the United States for the de-
struction of mutilated notes and issuing
of new notes. Previous to this act, each
bank Cancelled its own money in its
own way. When this was done, the
clippings were burned, and the body of
the note forwarded to the Treasury for
destruction. The Second National Bank
of New York has permitted somebody
to possess themselves of large amount
of their clippings in dishonest
way The attempt to paste them to
make whole bills proved unsuc
cessful, and the cuttings We're
sold for waste paper. These
cuttings were never in the Treasury, and
never came from it, The notes from
which they were cut have not been in
the Treasury since they were issued. A
bill could not be made out of the entire
lot. The Secret Service officers of the
Treasury have carefully investigated the
subject, and find the officers of that
bank alone responsible, and that there
is no danger of fraudulent notes.

A CatamOunt Drives Family from

The Sioux City Journal relates this
story. "Settlers living on the frontier
arc subject to Indian raids and other
dangers, but we never before heard of
one wildcat raiding house and clean
ing it out. Such, however, was the
case about ten days ago. A large wild
cat entered a Germans house near
Changers Woods, about forty miles up
the Missouri river from this city
The inmates of the cabin comprised six
persons, the mother and five children.
The father was a mile distant in the
timber, chopping wood. Upon the APP
pearance of the animal at the door,
which was standing aiar, the mother and
little ones fed the house by another
door, and ran to where the man was at
work, while small dog and the domes-
tic pussy gave the intruder battle.
Upon the return of the German and his
family, the beast Lad taken refuge in a
tree few rods distant from the house.
The old rifle was taken from the corner,
and the cat was brought to the ground
with a bullet IN its brain. The dog
and the pussy were both found dead
inside of the honse. The cat was of
very large size, and had been frequently
seen IN that section.

AT HIS OLD TRICKS.

Ex-senator Pomeroy, of Kansas, is
again in Washington, on behalf of his
scheme Ter land grant to aid his rail
way. Years ago a bill was passed au-
thorizing land and bond subsidy to
the amount of IS, 100000 to aid in the
construction of a railway from Atchi-
son north to intelsect the Union Pacific
road at the Tooth meridian. The line
was changed afterward by special act,
and the track completed by way of
Denver. Senator Pomeroy took it up
i'll behalf of the Central Branch road,
and claimed the subsidy. The case
went before 0. II. Browning, then Sec
rotary of the Interior, who examined
and rejected it. 1t was subsequently
investigated with like results by the
Attorney General and Solicitor Gener-
al. Last year, when all else failed, a
bill was introduced in the House pro-
viding for its adjustment by the Court
of Claims; but was defeated through
the efforts of Jere. NJ Wilson, of In
diana. The same bill has come up
again this session, and being backed by
a strong lobby stands in some possibii-
ty of passage.
