The thistle was selected as the national

safety the inhabitants He'd to the castles
and fortified towns. and among the most
notable of the fortresses of Aberdeen
shire was Staine's castle, where were
collected large number of people of
the neighborhood. The Danes projected
a surprise Approaching the castle in
the darkness they planned to scale its
walls, and laid aside their shoes that the
greater secrecy might be observed when
drawing near to the Notifications i
The surprise might have been success
full had it not been for the fact that, on
descending into the dry moat, they
found, to their great discontinue and
modification. it was filed with thistles,
by which their feet were so severely
pricked that several made an outcry,
which aroused the defenders of the castle
and brought them to the wall in time to
repel. the onset. Il Regarding their good
fortune in repelling the Danes as due to
the thistles, these plants were immedi-

Jim Hill, of the Great Northern rail-
road, was granted franchise through
Spokane, on the understood condition
that shippers at that place were to have
terminal rates. Spokane was delighted
and Jim got what he wanted. NoY that
Hill has possession of the franchise he
tells the Spokane people that they are
not justly entitled to terminal rates and
must be satisfied with relative rates.
For the meaning of this new term in rail
reading, Jim refers the people to Web

A bulletin issued by the census bu-

A bulletin issued by the census bu-
reau shows that the assessed valuation
of all property in the United States ex-
elusive of railroads increased nearly fifty
eight thousand millions or about 46 per
cent. in ten years from 1880 to 1890.
Should the same relations be found to
exist between the assessed valuation in
1892 and the valuation as it existed in
1890, the absolute wealth of the United
States may be estimated at $64, GAS, Goo
900, or more, than 81 900 per capita,
against $514 in 1850, $3.50 in 1870, and
1870 in 1880. The history OF the world
furnishes no porallel to this, and it must
be remembered that this immense stride
in material advancement was made
while tariff reformers and evengelists of
dispair were muttering their bootless
forebodings of imminent calamity and
disaster. The United States is the

We learn from the Washington Inde-
pendent that Garfield county, Washing
ton, has bonded its small deb. of $50, ZOO
and sold the bonds, bearing six per cent.
interest for $500, premium. This trans
action will effect a saving ofs$1 200 per
annum to the taxpayers as they have
been paying 10 per cent. interest
on their debt. There is good chance
for some OF our newly elected Solons to
signalize themselves by effecting the
passage OF Il law ia this state that will
enable counties to bond their debts and
thereby save manysa dollar to the tax
payers in the form of reduced interest.

"This place looks Is II it had been struck by

yesterday at the entrance of what was a few
days ago the busy. overcrowded toy depart

So Mrs. Jones did not get her growing cock

This has been busy week at the large shops
and the time Of ell the year when real bargains
were to be found, rs a clearance sale always
takes place at this season, before the stock
taking At the beginning of the year. This Ia a
long and tedious affair, but really very simple.
Long strips Of paper are tackled along the
shelves. and on them are registered every
article in each department The things in the
immediate neighborhood Of each paper are re-
corded upon 1t, and when one OF these Is sold it
is scratched of. Tonight all these little strips
are to be handed in ct the Office from each de-
partment. and on reading them over the pro-
prietor knows just what is left in the shop after
the great holiday sales, even down to a paper Of
pins or tape needle. At the counters where
such little necessaries are sold the stock taking
Is very wearisome, a. may be imagined. but in
the carpet or cloak departments it is compare
lively easy.
1t is surprising how much damage is done by
Christmas shoppers. Each person is so eager
to see all there is, and apparently actually to
feel everything WELL that but little Is left Of
such perishable things as paper-covered books,
many Of which not only lose their covers, but
half Of their contents a. WELL A great deal Of
glass and china is broken also, even metal
lamps are bent and pulled apart, and many Of
the fancy silk shades are out Of shape and
blackened Statuettes lose their heads, cups
their handles, vases their necks and goblets
their stems.
Bargain hunters were to be seen examining
these dilspidated things, and even buying them,
if they seemed very cheap. One woman was
seen going off in triumph with three-legged
bronze horse. another chose a much warped
and scratched bed room table that had once
been quite ornamental but had grown very
wobbledy, while o clock with no insides at
tractsd a third. After all, however, even the
bargain hunters were few and far between and
the change since the last days before Christmas
was absolutely startling.
