- The potato was introduced into Ell.
rope from the Western hemisphere. His.
tory has it that Christopher Columbus
was the first European who ever tasted a
potato, but the vegetable that he ate in
1892 and brought to Genoa was the sweet
potato. The first potato grown East OF
the Atlantic Ocean was planted by Clau.
dius in the bonatical gardens of Virginia
in 1858. Sir Walter Raleigh found the
potato in Virginia and took specimens
back to England.

The fable of "The Two Crabs" has in

this sermon we caught the idea, and

to know the truth. Notice please it is

all know in school "the true aim is char.

essential that the teacher direct his work
toward developing the thinking powers.
The whole circle Of knowledge is now
called into rcquisition. Natural science

most conducive to the cultivation of the

There are but two books, the Bible and

Two Hundred Millions Of Silver Dollars

z. p. jspccr, IN Augustu Chronicle.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. Is, 1892.
The new subsidiary coins, halves
qusrters and dimes, are beginning to
circulate quite freely in trade channels
The designs adopted for this change
money is quite pretty and sho" great
improvement in an artistic sense over
the old issues. 1t will require some
years for the old coins to entirely dis
appear. AS fast as they are received at
sub treasury or at the main treasury
they are stamped with die, condemned
and thrown into the bullion scrap heap
from which they ultimately find their
way to the smelling furnaces of the
various mints. a Treasury official esti-
mates that there Eare S4l,OOO,OOo of
halves, quarters and dimes of the old de.
signs now in circulation. Some of them
were minted only last year, but no par
tiality will be shown to these. All will
be condemned as fast as the government
comes into possession Of them.
It ia not generally known that only
SCI 100000 of standard silver dollars are
in circulation. The government is un-
able to pay these heavy coins out.
People prefer the paper currency, Sc
cured by their deposits in Treasury
vaults. It is only in the agricultural
districts of the South and West that the
silver dollar is acceptable. In the great
trade centres the people refuse it because
of its weight and receive coin certificates
in lieu Of them.

HOW 1T IS ALL GUARDED.

On of the interesting features of the
great Treasury Department is its guard
system The stranger rarely notices the
fact that all the entrance ways have in
addition to their ordinary wooden shut,
ters, heavy iron doors Of chilled steel
through which openings is left for the
purpose of defence. At the main por-
tai the watch room is located, and in
this chamber are arranged switch boards
representing the fire and burglar sys.
TENS. Here, too, an officer is constantly
on watch and these boards are his es-
pecial charge. Grouped in gun racks
like those of q military srmory, are for
ty deadly Winchesters and as many re.
volvers and short swords. These are
numbered and each member of the
treasury watch is instructed to instantly
lay his hands on his weapons in case of
emergency. In addition to these ordinary
military precautions there are other
means of defence. In all the corridors
of the building at regular distances
there are water plugs, so arranged that
they may be used as the means of fight
ing mob as we'll as the fiery element.
These plugs have double connections,
one with the water system of the city,
and the other with the water in the
boilers of the great engines in the base
ment of the treasury building. In the
event mob should march upon the
treasury the brigade Of fremen would be
instantly drafted to aid in repelling it.
From the upper stories Of the building
it would be easy for them to send
volumes ofscaldipg water into the streets
below, and it is estimate d that no mob
would withstand such punishment very

a MINE OF GREAT WEALTH.

In great underground vault in a
court yard ofthe Treasury building there
are stored to-day nearly s2OO,OOO,oOO of
these silver dollars Time and again the
government officials have sought to get
them into circulation, but they drift
back and paper certificates are exchanged
for them.
The building of this immense silver
storehouse was no small undertaking and
it cost the government many thousands.
1t is constructed Of steel and hard bricks
and the inner part is separated into cells
similar to the cells of a jail-the par.
titions being latticed with fiat steel bars.
As matter of course this gloomy cav.
ern is we'll guarded. In every portion
of its walls and flooring delicate wires
and other apparatus are introduced con.
nected with the alarm system of the
building. The removal of q single
brick or the intrusion of an instrument
of any character would serve to notify
the alert watchers above that the treas.
ure was in jeopardy.
At one period all of this silver wealth
was secured in bags containing $1,000
each and to each chamber or cell, was
allotted $1O,OOO,OOO, but owing to the
dampness of the vault the bags quickly
decayed and 80 wooden boxes have been
substituted, which are piled one upon
another like merchant arranges his
wares,
