The Greatest Public Benefaction.

IUHcu5teT (THJ NtU Era.
vi all the great public benefactions ever given
to the American people, perhaps none can show
an equal amount of satisfactory results with that
OF Philadelphia's great philanthropist, Stephen
Girard. From the just issued report of the Presi-
dent Of the College and the Board Of City Trusts,
who have the Girard estate in charge, we learn
that there are at present 1,l77 boys in the Col
!ege; that $50 have far this year been sent out
into positions where they can maintain themselves.
The total income of the estate for the past year
was about $424000, an increase of $4,000 over
that OF the previous year. When reflect upon
the good which has already been done and that
which future generations will derive from the en-
hghtened bequest of Mr.. Girard, know not
where to look for a name that deserves greater
honor than his as a beuefactor Of his race.

THE DEEPEST ABYSS.

The depth of the ocean-probably seldom ex-
ceeding three miles-has been greatly over rated
School text books even now mention that between
the Azores and Bermudas sounding of seven
and half miles has been obtained. That mea-
surement was made some thirty years ago by
Lieut.. Bergman, and is now considered untrust-
worthy. The greatest reliable soundIngs have
been those of the Challenger and Tuscarora, reach
ing depths of about five and half miles. 1t is
curious fact that this corresponds very closely to
the height above sea-leve of the talest mountain.

The Fall Of a Dude.

Report says a youngman in Cam.
bridge walked briskly to the house
of his best girl on a certain night,
stepped up to the front door, and
vigorously rang the bell six times,
and then paused for breath. AS
the door opened he stepped inside,
Just as the fair lady was about to
invite him in. She assisted him to
she'd his coat, aud he hung it on
the rack with the remark: "Hang
there you $50 overcoat." Placing
his gloves on the table he continu-
ed, "Lie there, YOU s. gloves :
standing his cane in the corner,
"Stay there, you $40 cane;' putting
his hat on the chair, "When | want
you, be there, you Sl2 hat" Then
they went into the room, and she
invited him to sit down. AS he
was about to comply, the fair being
quietly drew the chair from under
him. and as he measured himself
on the floor, she remarked: "Lie
there, you fifty cent fool" A mo-
ment later the man and his valua-
bles had vanished, and the lady
yentured to close the outer door,
which had been left open.-Cdm.
