1t has been estimated that NJ.
Grevy, president of France, died
worth at least 100000. When
elected president he had an income of
about $4,000 per year While in of
fee he received $4,000 of emolu-
ments, 100000 for the expenses of
the household and 100000 more for
receptions.
Five hundred million feet of logs
are cut in Maine annually, one
third the amount floating down the
Penobscot and 100000 down
the Kennebec. The quantity OF lum
Der shipped from the state since the
starting of the business early in the
century has been enormous. The
rapid growth of the pulp mills is alb
sorbing a vast amount of wood,
mostly young growth spruce, and it
has become serious question wheth-
er the consumption in this direction
will not seriously affect the lumber
supply.
Dr. Jaccottet, the physician who
was employed looking after the men
engaged in the construction of the
new observatory on the summit of
Mont Blanc, has died. His death is
attributed to the rarity of the air IN
that elevated region. The intention
of building an observatory there has
now been abandoned-partly because
it would be dangerous to life, and
partly because, after tunnelling more
than SOFT through the snow. the
workmen have not discovered the
rock.
A remarkable accident occurred at
Jaffrey, N. H, recently. A team was
standing near a school house, in the
wagon of which was a loaded shot
gun. Some one threw an apple core
at the horse. which kicked, violently
striking the wagon and firing the
gun, sending the charge of shot
among a group of children. Four
girls and one boy were hit. One girl
received about 20 shot in her leg, an
other shot through the lip, taking
out tooth, and perhaps the most
seriously injured was one of the girls
who received one or more shots in
the abdomen. The other two re-
ceived trifing wounds.

A curious illustration of the fact
that the school board has not vet
accomplished all its work in higher
grades, occurred on Thursday at the
North London police court. A
witness, described as a commercial
traveller in the city, was asked
Was it night or morning that the
affair occurred ?" "Post-mortem,"
was the ready reply, the traveller ap-

A SINGULAR HORSE.

A funny story is told of Dean
Swift, who was a witty man. and
fond of joke at the expense of other
people, as most witty people are.
One very cold night, when he was
travelling, he stopped at little inn.
There was only one fire in the house,
and the guests of the inn, crowding
about it, left no place for the new
conner.
With a solemn face Dean Swift
called to the hostler, and told him to
get a peck of oysters Immediately
and take them out to his horse.
Twill your horse eat oysters, sir %
asked the astonished man.
lust take them out and see" said
the horses master.
The people around the fire stared
at the man who owned this curious
horse, and nearly every one of them
left his seat and went out to see the
remarka bic horse eating oysters.
Then the cunning Dean made him
self comfortable in the warmest
corner, and ordered his supper.
Presently back came the hostler
with the disappointed crowd after
him.
He won't touch them, sir" cried
the hostler.
Then take the foolish animal al
the oats he can eat," replied Dear
Swift You can bring the oyster:
here. I'll eat them for supper my

Reading About Foreign Countries.

At this time Of year we are overrun
with applications for guide books. works
Of travel, books Of modern history Of for
eign countries. and even novels Of which
the scene is laid abroad. Whatever they
may say in Europe about the Americans,
they cannot truthfully declare that We
do not prepare for a foreign tour, for
hardly any one now goes abroad without
reading of the countries he intends to
visit, sometimes as carefully as though
he expected to pass competitive exam
ination.
There are several persons in the city
who 20 abroad every summer, and You
can tell exactly where they are going by
the books they ask for when they are
getting ready for the tour. The fact
shows that Americans are intelligent
sightseers, and when they visit foreign
city know exactly what they are 10 see
there. and often, by reason of the special
examining they undergo, understand the
history. antiquities and curiosities Of the
places they visit better than people who
have lived there all their lives. Inter
