GOOD Money TO KEEP.-It would
be we'll for people who have trade
dollars on hand to consider Assistant
Secretary Acton's advice to keep them
rather than submit to sacrifice. 1t is
regarded by many as probable that
Congress, which is responsible for
their issue, will provide for their re-
demption. AS usual in financial dis
turbances, the poor are the chief suf-
ferers in this trade dollar hubbub,
but as the coin is not legal tender,
and the government agencies all re-
fuse to take it, the banks can do
nothing with them when they accum-
ulate.

The New York Herald of Saturday
last prints a list of the serious acci-
dents and calamities which have been
caused by fire, flood, hurricanes. ex-
blossoms and human carelessness dur
ing the last six months. 1t shows
that during that period there have
been nearly three thousand deaths
from those causes in various parts of
the world. The year so far has been
unusually prolific in earthquakes,
floods and tornadoes, and it is possible
that if we could fully know the ex-
tent of the suffering indirectly caused
by the long continued floods in Eu-
rope and this country the list would
be swelIed to a greater length.

The End of Our Great Men.

The four great personages occupy
ing the most conspicuous places in
the worlds history, were Alexander,
Hannible, Caesar, and BOnaparte.
ALEXANDRIA after having climb
ed the dizzy heights of his ambition,
and with his temples bound with
chaplets dipped in the blood of count
less millions, and wept that there
was not another world for him to
eonquer-set a city on fire and died
in a scene of debauch.
HANNIBAL,-after having, to the
establishment and CONSERVATION of
Rome, passed the Alps, and haying
put to flight the armies of the mis-
tress of the world, and stripped three
bushels of golden rings from the fin
gers of her slaughter knights, and
made her foundations quake, fled
from his country, being hated by
those who once exultantly united his
name to that of their god, and called
him Hanni Baai. and died at last. by
his own hand, unlamented and I'M
Wept in a foreign land.
CEsER,-after having conquered
eight hundred cities, and dying his
garments in the blood of one million
of his foes-after having pursued to
death the only rival he had on earth,
was miserably assassinated by those
whom he considered his nearest
friends; and in that very place, the
attainment of which had been his
greatest ambition.
BoNAPARTE, - whose mandates
kings and popes obeyed, after having
filled the earth with the terror of his
name-after having deIuged Europe
with tears of blood, and the world
with sackcloth, closed his days in
lonely Punishment, almost literally
exiled from the world, yet where he
could sometimes see his country's
banner waving over the deep. but
which could not bring him aid.

When a person goes down into
the depths of the ocean or river in a
divers suit, he first puts on two suits
of wooden underwear 10 absorb the
perspiration, then a rubber suit in
one piece extending to the neck. To
this IS attached collar weighing %
pounds, to which is fitted the 80
pound helmet of iron and glass. A
40 pound pair of shoes, and a belt
weighing 100 pounds compile the out
fit, When in rs feet of water this
immense weight is not felt at all, and
the diver moves around as though
dressed in common overalls and low
cut shoes. Nearly all divers are
more or less deaf, owing to the un-
even pressure upon the drum of the
ear, and they do not usually live to

In the midst of play in Chinese theatre
in Yolo, Cal, recently, two Of the perform
ers had combat so realistic and vigorous as
to fix the attention Of the previously listless
audience. The actors were armed with
knives, and while they struggled with each
other on the stage the spectators yelled and
stamped their approval. At last a stream of
blood ran across the boards, and one of the
contestants fell back dead. The fight had
been genuine, the actors having quarreled
about a woman, who also played in the
piece.
