The men, when he was observed, We're

matches with instructions TO fire the car,
while they fired the others at the end of

found that his place of egress was too

HiD4HE, I'll EXPL4TN.''


Quite large party of gentlemen from
the city went down to the bay the other
day and were Hospitality entertained at
the cabin OF the Birds and Worms.
Among the party We're several prom
inent men from present and former Off
cial boards of the ml,iIicipality-law
yers, Commissioners, and other equally
well-known and influential citizens. No
4" the boys" went in for good time,
everything, of course. being kept within
safe and reasonable bounds After an
afternoon of good sport the party re-
paired to the Newport House to make
preparations for their return to the city.
They remained there until late III the
evening, and not until the majority of
the guests of the house were retired to
their rooms did the carriages begin to
fill for the homeward journey. About
this time some joke came up, and from
gentleman ran, the others joining III
his pursuit. Dodging around the yard
for few minutes, he escaped into the
hotel, ran up the stairs, and hid
III one OF the halls. The tramp
OF feet, however, soon told him he was
followed, and, in his great desire to es-
cape, he skipped through an open door
into a bedroom. The p1lrsuers were
almost ut the door, and, III a fit of des-
peration, he concealed his somewhat
substantial corporosity beneath the bed.
His friends looked in, saw no one, and
passed on. In a few minutes they went
down stairs again, and the concealed FIJI
gitive was Just about crawling out to GO
down when new figure appeared on
the scene A lady entered the room,
and, to the horror of the gentleman I'M
der the bed, began to show unmistakable
symptoms of her intention of going to
her nights repose. There was but one
course to pursue on the part of our hero,
and he purslIedit. Sticking his head and
arms out from under the bed, he ex-
claimed: " Madam, don't be frightened.
It's all right, and I'll explain how came
here. Don't lie scared. Don't scream,

LIDTES OF THE WHITE HOUSE.
JULIA DENT GRANT.

JULIA DENT GRANT.
The White House was splendidly re-
furnished, and equipped and ornamented
as it had never been before, when Mrs.
Grant removed her household goods
there, and came into it the proud wife of
the man whom the sovereign people de-
lighted to honor; and no one else has
ever said that the adulation showered on
the President and his family has ever
affected his wife unwisely. There was
nothing too good to give her husband
when he came into the Presidency;
there has been nothing too bad to say
of him since; she maintained her equa-
nimity under it all, and preserved
through all the years of her power her
simplicity and kind consideration for
others. Fond of splendor and beauty
and pleasure, the White House was the
scene of unceasing gayety and festivity
from the time she opened its doors, and
wealth and magnificence have made it
their headquarters
Mrs. Grant was Miss Julia Dent be
fore her marriage with the young officer
who became Commander-in-C Chief, and
her family We're people of weight in
their own community. She was well
educated, her manners are those of a
finished lady, and as a wife and mother
SHE is faultless. Her only daughter,
a charming young girl, with some de-
gree OF beauty, and a smile that endeared
her to all hearts as she passed on her
gay way, has been married to the heir
of fine English property
During Mrs. Grants life in the White
House, one of her sons brought home
his bride there, and her second son
made even his fathers contemners his
friends by his manly and noble bearing
the good fortune of the last sixteen
years must have amply paid the fond
and proud wife and mother for any
troubles of those that went before.
Mrs. Grant has seen Washington
change from a muddy barrack to city
OF palaces; she has herself done every-
thing in her power to make it pleasant
place of abode; and she left the White,
House, followed ny the kind wishes of
oil

OF very ancient origin Is money. 1t
is mentioned as medium of commerce
in the Bible, in Genesis xiii, where
Abraham purchased field as a sepul-
cher for Sarah, in the year of the world
2139. Homer speaks of brass money as
coin is ascribed to the Lydians. Their
money consisted of gold and silver
Iron money was used in Sparta, and iron
and tin in Great Britain. Julius Cesar
was the first person who obtained the
express permission of the Senate to
place his image On the Roman coins.
Earlier they had placed the images of
their deities on their coins. The Ro-
mans called their silver "moneta." be
cause it was coined in the temple of
Juno Moneta, 800 b. c.. Money has
been made of different materials, and
even of leather. 1t was made of paste
board by the Hollanders as late as 1874.
The North American Indians, in carly
times, used shells strung together,
which they called wampum. Coins were
made in many different shapes. En-
glish coins were partly square, oblong
and round, until the Middle Ages, since
when round coins have only been used.
The Chinese and Japanese coins are
square, with a square hole through the
center. The names of MANY obsolete
pieces are met with in Shakespeare and
some other English authors, such as the
angel, angelot, noble, groat, guinea,
etc. The first silver coin struck in En-
gland was the ancient silver penny. 1t
was struck with a cross so deeply in
dented that it might be easily parted
INTO two for half-pence and into four for
farthings.
