4 Live Frog in a Rock.

Many well-authenticated stories of the finding of live toads and frogs in solid rock are on record, and that such things are possible was demonstrated here, when a workman engaged in Var ley & Everill's lime rock quarry, north of the city, broke open large piece of rock, which had been blasted out, . frog hopped out of a pocket in the cen- ter of the stone. Of course, the occur renee crOated tremendous sensation
 among the workmen, and operations at the quarry were for the time suspended,
 and the movements of the frog were watched with great interest The ani- nal was somewhat smaller than the or dinary frog and was perfectly white. Its eyes were unusually large and brill- iant, but the freg was apparently blind. Where the mouth should have been there was only a line, and on the feet there was dark, horny substance. MT. Everill at once took charge of the curiosity and put it in . tin can, but the frog died yesterday morning. He brought it down town and it was exam. ined with interest by large number oi people, and it was afterwards presented to the museum, where it will be pre- served in alcohol.-Salt Lake Herald

TOLD BY STANLEY.

Tho Explorers Fox Terrier Randy and
 the Guinea Fowl
 We were sitting conversing about our prospects, discussing the probabilities of our couriers reaching some settle ment on this day, or the next, and the time that it would take them to return, and they desired to know whether in my previous African experience, had encountered any thing as grievous as this.
 No, not quite so bad as this," re- piled. We have suffered. but not to such an extremity as this. Those nine days on the way into Ituru were wretched. On our flight from Bumbire we certainly suffered much hunger, and also while floating down the Congo to trace its course our condition was much to be pitied; we have had little of something, and at least large hopes, and if they die where are weP The age of miracles is past it is said, but why should they be? Moses drew water from the rock at Horeb for the thirsty Israelites. Of water we have enough and to spare Elijah was fed by ravens at the brook Cherith, but there is not a raven in all this forest. Christ was ministered unto by angels I wonder if any one will minister unto us?"
 Just then there was a sound as of a large bird whirring through the air. Little Randy, my fox terrier, lifted up foot and gazed tnquiringly; we turned our heads to see, and that second the bird dropped beneath the jaws of Randy. who snapped at tho prize and held il fast in wise as of iron.
 ''There, boys," I said, truly the gods are gracious. The age of miracles is not past" and my comrades were seen gazing in delighted surprise at the bird, which was a fine fat guinea fowl It was not long before the guinea fow was divided, and Randy, its captor, had his lawful share, and the little doggit seemed to know that he had grown fl esteem with all men, and we enjoyed our prize each with his own feelings. - Henry NJ.

A DEFICIENCY CoNFRoNTs u

The condition" which confronted us when President Cleveland wrote his celebrated message on the tariff no long CT exists. Nobody can now become frightened at the surplus Tn the nation al treasury, for the very good reason that there is no such surplus and that the condition that confrouts us" is an empty treasury with many millions of the governments liabilities unprovided for.
 This condition of things was brought about by the republican congress with the aid of Tanner and other officials who had less mouth and greater capacity for getting rid of the peoples money.
 Senator Allison has recently been making figures and the result is a state ment that the expenditures of the year will be $450, ,O0O and the receipts $450, ,000, ,000, leaving deficit of $9,000,- 900.
 But this does not take all the expendi ture into consideration. The pension bill is sos, ,000 ,000, which it is estimated is $12, 100000 short. The dependent pension bill, at least $20, 100000 is not considered at all, and the miscellaneous appropriations made thus far this ses sion, ,::amounting to $1O,OOo, ,OOO, are left out, thus showing a difference of $42, 000,000 against the treasury and in creasing the deficit to $51 100000. Ii the Mckinley bill becomes law and re duces the revenue $50,0OO,OO0, as its author claimed it would, the deficit would be brought up to an aggregate oi over $100, ,0OO.
 At this rate it will not be long unti this government will have to be issuing bonds to meet it's current expenses ol levying internel revenue taxes on all the necessaries ot life, as in war timee.
