was small but annoying. Suspicion
rested on the young man, for there
was no one in the business but him
self and the employer. A detective
was consulted, the money marked, and
the young clerk detected. Owning up
when secrecy could no longer avail,
he said:
Don't send me to prison, and / will
go off and trouble you no more"
I don't intend" said the banker to
send you to prison, nor to discharge
you | am going to keep you and
make a nan of you"
He took the young man into his
private roo~m-showed him how he
did business; how impossible it was
for any n to abstract a penny with
out its being at once known; hat tho
slightest departure from rectitude in
that business was detected in an in
slant. He did more han this. He
showed him hat integrity and unbend-
ing honesty were the corner-stones of
financial success. The young man
wept bitterly, and promised amend
ment. He remained one year, when
he received a fine offer in a large fnan-
cial establishment The banker had
such confidence in his integrity that he
became his bondsman in a heavy
amount. The young man, who at one
moment was trembling on the brink of
ruin, is now one of the most success
full and honoured of fnanciers.-New

MR.. EDISON AND THE ELEC.
TRIO LIGHT.
From Tx. Times Correspondent in Philadelphia.

Mr.. Edison. The inventor, claims to have
discovered an effective, cheap electric
light, which is q complete substitute for
gas for household use. After 10 months
experimenting, Mr.. Edison accidentally
discovered that burnt paper is the best
substance to nse, and he therefore aban.
doned platinum, devoting himself to per-
fecting this lamp. He cuts from cardboard
o narrow strip, shaped like an elongated
miniature horse shoe, the strip being two
inches long and one-eighth of an inch wide.
This is placed IN a ~wrought-iron mould,
which is heated slowly to a white heat,
driving off all volatile portions of the pa.
per, which is then gradually cooled. The
charred remains of the horseshoe are
taken carefully out and are placed up.
right in a little glass globe, The wires Of
the generating machine being attached at
the ends of the horse shoe. The air being
exhausted frem the globe, it is scaled, COM
plotting a lamp costing about one shilling.
This, Mr.. Edison claims, will produce q
bright, mellow light, without Pickering or
pulsations. He has also invented a gene.
rator and regulator-his claim being that
he has entirely solved the problem.
I have not seen the lamp, it not being
open to public exhibition yet.

Origin Of the Nicknames OF two States

A Wisconsin paper says: 1t is popu-
larly supposed that the term Badger
was applied to our people and State be-
cause of the abundance of these animals
within our borders. hut such is not the
fact. Previous to 1885, there were, ex-
cept at the military forts and missionary
and trading stations, and in the lead
mines of the southwest, very few white
people located within the territory. The
characteristic term Of badger arose:
in the lead region. The miners were Of
two grades-Lhose who staid all the year
round at the "diggings," "and those who
came up from Illinois only to operate
during tho summer season. The per-
manent residents, having but little time
or material to construct regular huts,
were accustomed to burrow into the
hill-sides semi-subterranean cells, large
enough for bunking and cooking pur-
poses. This peculiar mode of lite, being
similar to that of the badgers-an ami
NAL then plentiful in the lead regions
suggested the term of badger-holes,
as applied both to the cave-like homes
and the sunken shafts of the resident
miners, while the latter themselves were
CeTuleu DituSelS. OA Viz oeheh A"i!o
the Illinois itinerants would come up in
the spring and return in the fall. in the
same manner as the "sucker" fishes;
being in the diggings but a short season,
they did not sink regular shafts and
burrow under the earth along The
mineral veins like the Badger" miners,
but opened large quarry pits, seeking
for float-lead and that ore which could
be easily obtained near the surface. The
itinerants were called "Suckers," be-
cause of the similarity of their migratory
habits to those of the catastomus, and to
distinguish them from the resident
"Badgers;" while the open pits scooped
out by the former were designated
"sucker. holes" The lead mine region
in southwestern Wisconsin is still plenti-
fully besprinkled with these "sucl err
holes" exhausted and abandoned by
the early visitors from over the Illinois
border. The distinguished appellations,
badger" and Sucker" became, as an
obvious sequence, characteristic terms
applied to the entire people of the States
of Wisconsin and Illinois respectfully,
and to the States themselves. 1t was.
therefore, because of this time-honored
and accepted desio nation of Wisconsin
and its inhabitants the badger was
chosen as our armorial crest-and that
we became, officially as we'll rs .popu-
larly, the Badger State"

CuriOus Trials In England.

The habit and temper of the English
man which inc.ines him to stand up for
his rights and resent encroachments
brings some very curious cases into
court. Recently a baker sued justice
of the peace and recovered nominal
damages for. imprisonment for fourteen
DAYS ut hard labor as q penalty TOR re-
iusing to have his child vaccinated. 1t
was proved, too, that although the
words "hard labor" had been left on
the Justices printed blanks the plaintlff
had not been put to hard labor
A farmer was brougl t before pro
yincial court for obtaining an asricui-
tural prize on a bull and afterward SELL
ine the animal for nearly $500. which he
had represented rs blooded stock but
whose dam. Graceful" was fictitious,
and VIII, Sc grand-dam was common
cow. -,
A man brought q suit for four shil.
lings against the METROPOLITAN railroad
company OF I.ondon--the amount, paid oy
him for q cab from Richmond because
the train on which he vas riding
stopped before it reached the Richmond
static n and prevented his reaching q
Southeastern railroad train in time.
The magistrate dismissed the case on
the ground that if the train hadn't
At opped there would have been col
lision, and the plaintiff would probably
have not been there 10 bring any suit at
all.
Another story is of a pickpocket who
was seen to take a pocketbook out of a
lany's back pocket and run away.
When caught he threw himself on his
knees and begged to be let go. He had
spent seventeen years In prison, he said,
and the police wouldn't give him a
chance. There were ten detectives to
one thief in the city, and there was no
chance for a thief, Of IL .-letrQa- .7,-14e Free

Mines and MOney.

Wells, Fargo & Co.'s circular an
nounc cling the production of precious
metals during the past year fixes the
amount at a little more than seventy
one million dollars, minus whatever
quantity NAV have reached San Fran
cisco from Mexico and British Colum-
bia. The yield, though less by five
millions than that OF 1873, is good one,
and will probably be more than salts
factory to the mints and the people, for
promise does it offer to the thousands,
perhaps millions, who imagine that in
handling precious metals there is always
fortune? How does the yield compare
with that of other products peculiar to
the country According to statistics it
is about ten times less than that of
either hay or corn, six times less than
wheat. several times below cotton, only
about half as great as that of oats and
about neck and neck with that of the
potato crop. By far the greater portion
of the bullion has come from few
mines where rich deposits and able
business managers are found together.
On the other hand, there is not single
other interest in the land, except stock
gambling, that can show so many
utterly unsuccessful hangers-on. The
yield in precious metals is in value
about seventy million bushels of wheat
at farm prices. This. at the average
acreage Of the United States, could be
raised on five and half million acres,
or thirty-four thousand quarter sections
of land. Had the men who have wasted
year OF time and more or less money
in the mining regions put both into
wheat, they would have earned some
hundreds Of thousands of dollars and
have become settled farmers, with some
business standing and prospects. OF
the thousands who are already there
and the other thousands who reach the
mines monthly. some two or three
dozen strike it rich" but what good
will that do the remainder To any
man who has the mining fever, believes
in his luck and insists on going West,
we would urge the propriety of entering
"a quarter section as near to the mines as
good lands can be found, and putting in
