Effects or an Eclipse.

Exclusion from the suns rays during
even the few brief moments of total
eclipse has perceptible influence upon
the earth's atmosphere. Elaborate pre-
paratioDs were made for observing the
total tolar eclipse of August 19, 1887,
so that PIof. Hesehus has been en-
abled to study the meteorological effect
from the reports of twenty-five stations
in Russia and Siberia. The barometric
pressure was lowered about one-tenth
of an inch, the minimum being from
five to ten minutes after the full
eclipsN. This YEAS probably due to
condensation of atmospheric vapor.
The temperature was lowered about
thee degrees f. in the shade and fif-
t en- degrees in the suns rays, the
minima being reached ten and three
minutes respectively after the full
eclipse. The force of the wind was re-
duced. Evidence concerning influence
upon the compass was contradictory.
Day-plants folded their leaves, night
plants opened their flowers, the higher
animals manifested the usual symp-
toms of uneasiness and fear, and mos
quitoes appeared in the Siberian
marshes as in vening.-Arkansa,o

Dakota's wheat crop of 1887 exceeded all
the other States and Territories in the num-
Der of bushels sixty-two million. while in
the yield OF oats it took fourth place, and
in corn exceeded two-thirds Of the States.
Dakota's crops are grown on land worth an
average OF $40 an acre as against $50 and
SlOO land in the States. Seven counties of
Dakota in 1887 raised twenty-three million
bushels OF wheat and eleven million bush
ols OF. oats. This was in the valley OF The
Red River OF the North. which Baya-d Tay-
lor called tho Milo OF America. The soil of

Court Life al The Hague.

The court and the capital at The
Hague, which is city of about one
hun ired and forty Thousand inhab-
itants, are not much frequented by
foreign visitors, owing their lacking in
general gayety and those lavish enter
tainments which are considered to be
indispensable features, and which ex-
erc;se such fascinating attraction in q
contir entail capital. BY the side of the
current Iun of such things elsewhere,
Dutch court life and society are pro-
nounced by the elite of the fashionable
world TO be absolutely dull in their dis
tingu shing home-like plainness and
narrowness. Necessarily a court pre-
sided over by an aged king and queen,
if their tastes reign, must be forbidden
ground for extravagant festivities, and
as the staid character of the people,
with the quietude which must accom-
pany the capital of such people, are
really not calculated to offer any very
lively field for frolicking, so it is not
as .onishing on the whole if outsiders
are wont to give them the go-by.-

Safe Interest.

All national and State banks receive
deposits subject to check at sight, but
do not pay interest. Principal trust
companies have two systems, elective
at the time of depositing, one similar
to the above banks and the other a
time account, when a notice of from
ten days to two weeks is required. On
the fast system they pay 2 per cent.
and on the latter % per cent. No Teli-
able banks pay more rate of interest
than that cited here, and on any larger
rate of interest il would be we'll to ex-
anime carefully the security.

decision, granting the temporary injunc-

its first train would cross the bridge.
