A certain well-known New Yorker.
who has to hustle for his bread and
molasses, this summer fell in love with
a girl, and ever since August has been
on the eve of proposing to her. His
income is $500 year, but he wanted
to be certain that he could pay all the
expenses before rushing into the fray.
He estimated that the rent and rum
ming expenses of suburban residence
would cost 81, 300 year. He allowed
$3.50 year for his personal expenses,
and thought the girl could get along on
a like sum. To be sure, he didn't ex-
pect to save any money while living at
this rate, but like other young men
had abounding faith in a special provi-
dence which would cause a long-for-
gotten uncle or other relative to die
some time and leave him fortune.
So he asked an intimate friend of his
lady-love how much the latter spent on
her wardrobe during the year. The
friend said: "Why, she told me only
day before yesterday that her clothes
cost 81. 600 year, but she did think
she could get along on $1,500." The
engagement has not yet been an
nouncad.-M r Sun.

---------------------- THE MARKETS.

NEW YORK, June l6.-The stock market today was the most featureless market for months and dealings present absolutely no oc- casion for comment. Speculators and even in yestors are still waiting upon Congressional ac- tion in the matter of the silver bill, and until some definite news is received stagnation is likely to be the chief characteristic of dealings in nstocks. The close was very dull but steady. There was no tendency in prices shown by final changes, which were irregular, but for small fractions only.
 Governments, firm.

A "Turncoat."
From the St. Louis Republic ]

From the St. Louis kepubnc.l
 It is said that the opprobrious epithet, turncoat, took rise from one of the first dukes of Savoy, whose dominions were open to the Contending powers of both Spain and France. Being subject ed to frequent incursions of the rival powers, he was obliged to temporize and favor the powers alternately, as they seemed to be able or not to injure him. In order to carry out this arrangement to perfection he had coat made that was blue on one side and white on the other, so that it could be worn inditferently with either side out.
 When he was ostensibly on the side of Spain he wore the blue side out 1; when the French were to be propitiated he displayed the white side. He, there- fore, became widely known as Emanuel, the Turncoat, and was thus distin- guished from other princes of his house bearing the same name. Since the time of Emmanuel the epithet has been applied to those who turn their opinions to suit the occasion or their own personal in- terests.

Dragon Trees.

The vegetable and plant life on the "a
nary Islands has not so luxurious growth
as that which is found on the Madciras
Nevertheless there is a great variety OF in
teresting plants which well repay the at
tention Of botauists, and some parts ol tho
islands are like beautiful gardens.
OF all the botanical wonders which can
be seen there the one which Is perhaps
most worthy Of special mention Is the
dragon tree (dracgna draco). Alexander
Won Humboldt was the first one to direct
attention TO this gigantic tree.
The example Of this kind Of tree which
was measured by him was in the garden
region of Orotava, on the northern coast OF
the island Of TenerifTe, and had trunk
circumference of seventy-nine feet Hum
bolGt reckoned It's age To be ten thousand
years. hut the latest critical researches
prove that he placed the age much too high.
The next largest tree Of this species which
i. known today is the dragon tree Of lcod
de los Binos, on the western coast OF Ten
erfffe.
This tree was carefully measured in 1851
and again in 1884. The first time rhe cir
conference of the trunk, nj the height of
a little less than three meters from the
ground, was found to be nine and one-hall
meters; twenty seven years later it was
eleven meters, seventy centimeters, more
than thirty-eight feet. The tree, therefore
has been proved 10 increase in size much
more rapidly than Humboldt supposed
The top Of this tree is Of thick clusters OF
sword shaped leaves on rather soft, pliable
branches, and spreads out in very pict
uresoue manner.-YOuth's Companion.

SOUTH CAROLINA.

BEFORE the split occurred in the Demo-
cratic Convention Of South Carolina, 1t was
resolved "that the debt Of South Carolina,
as now recognized, is a public obligation OF
primary importance, and in the iuture' as
in the past. will continue to have the FOSTER
I'M, care of the state Government, and
should command the confidence OF the in-
vesting public" Though it is the opinion
of many that the convention settled but
one thing-the primary plan-there is dan
ger that the split may widen before the
nominating convention of the Democratic
marty shall meet in September. Should mat
breach approach party disruption there
is danger that the debt shall not
receive the fostering care OF the
state Government Experience has
taught the south what is meant by Repub-
lican control Of State. Ii always has
meant pillage, and insecurity of person ana
property. Let not South Carolinan Dem
ocracv by internal dissension assist the
Radicals in turning back times hands
Now is the time for GOODNESS and conces-
sion. South Carolina is looked TO not only
to defend herself, but to continue to be one
Of that solid wall opposed to radical en-
croachments upon the Constitution. should
the breach not be closed before the election
south Carolina is but inviting upon herself
repetition of those scenes of rapiue and
plunder which belong TO carpet-bag days
The return Of that Kind of regime would
nullify the resolution of the convention. II
would mean unhealthy finances.
