The Use of Paper Money.

Almost, if not quite, all civilized
countries use paper money TO facilitate
payments within their own jurisdiction,
says the Globc-Democrat The United
States use paper money to a greater ex-
text than any other country, and In notes
of smaller denominations than any other
country of equal importance. All of our
paper bills except the gold certificates
are in the the denominations of 81, 81,
S., SO, $40, $50, 800, $500 and 81, 600;
our gold certificates do not appear in de-
nominations less than $50. The Domin-
ion OF Canada issues 81 and 81 notes,
and various banks issue notes varying
from s. to 81 900 Mexico issues paper
money of 10 pesos and upward
and the South American States
issue paper of similar denomina-
tions. The Bank Of England issues all
English notes in denominations of 60,
el0, $50, $50, e100 goo, $500, $500
and el.OO0. The banks of Scotland and
Ireland issue notes of 81 and upward.
The Bank of France issues notes for oO
frances, 100, 200, 500 and 1000 francs.
The Bank Of Belgium issues notes OF 70
francs and upward. Italian banks issue
notes of Ira and upward to 1000 lire.
The Bank of Germany puts out notes for
marks and upward to 1000 marks
Austria issues notes of gulden and up
ward. Russia is the only European
country which issues government notes,
its paper money being of the denomina-
tion of ruble and upward. Sweden,
Norway and Denmark issue by their
banks notes for krone, 10, 25, 90 and
100 krone. India does not issue paper
money, nor does China now. Japan
provides papsr money of yen, 9, 5, 10,
30 and 100 yens, and the other countries,
as rule, issue paper money, the lowest
denomination of which is usually ten
times the value of the coined unit of
value

How Marble Is Made.

The manufacture of marble is usually
left to nature and human beings have no
reason to be dissatisfied with ,he results
as this arrangement, but the enthusiasm
of the modern scientist leads him to con-
tinually compete with natural forces,
often with success.
The latest achievemen. Of science is the
artificial production of marble from pure
calcium carbonate.
NJ. Ii. lie Chatelier, a French chemist,
.Aakes the calcium in the form OF an i'm
palpable powder, and congresses it in a
steel cylinder, between two pistons, with
a pressure of 1000 pounds to the square
inch. While in this condition platinum
spiral, previously imbedded in the
powder, is heated by an electric current,
with the result that the powder in the
ncighborhood of the wire was rendered
crystalline and translucent.
Sections Of the resulting substance
when examined underneath microscope
exhibited the characteristics OF certain
specimens of slightly macled marble.
This remarkable work of the electric
current may prove the stepping to
greater achievements in the production
of artificial stone Of sll kinds.

n Marine Marvel.

One of the marine wonders of the
world is the great barrier reef of Aus
tralia. This stupendous rampant OF
coral, says the Seaboard, stretching in an
almost unbroken line for 1850 miles
along the northeastern coast of Australia,
presents features of interest which are
not to be equalled in any other quarter
Of the globe
Nowhere is the action of the little
marine insect, which builds up with un-
tiring industry those mighty monuments
with which the tropical seas are studded,
more impressive; nowhere are the won
derful constructive forces of nature more
apparent. BY simple process Of accre-
tion there has been reared in the course Of
countless centuries an adamantine wall
against which the pillows of the Pacific
sweeping along in an uninterrupted
course of several Thousand miles, dash
themselves in Intellectual fury. Inclosed
within the range of it's protecting arms
is'a calm inland sea, $4,000 square miles
in extent, dotted with multitude of
coral islets and presenting at every turn
objects of interest alike 10 the unlearned
traveller and the man of science.
Here may be witnessed the singular
process by which the wavy, gelatinous,
living mass hardens into stone, then
serves as collecting ground for the flot
sam and jetsam of the ocean, and ul-
timately develops into an island covered
with luxurious mass Of tropical growth.
Here again may be seen in the serene
depths of placid pools extraordinary
forms of marine life aglow with the most
brilliant colors and pro oiucing in their
infinite variety bewildering sense of the
vastncss of the life in the ocean.

SAVED FROM THE TIGER.
A Trainer Attacked While Feeding
the Animals

In one of the cages in the circus parade
Mt Walton, Mich, were a lion and tiger.
The beasts, especially the tiger, were fine
specimens of their kind. I'm the same
cage was the trainer, sitting in apparent
unconcern After the performance was
over in the afternoon, in advertising the
concert, which Immediately followed, it
was announced that Professor Reed, the
lion tanner, would Mt the close 60 into
the den in which he rode with the lion
and the tiger in the morning and would
feed them fresh meat from his own
hands, to show the perfect subjection of
the beasts. 1t was done as advertised.
The beasts. however, were not in good
humor and snarled, showing their teeth
and lashing their tales as meat was hand
ed to them.
When the trainer, in carrying on. his
programme, took piece of meat in his
mouth and held it out for the tiger, the
great cat sprang forward partly against
the trainer, knocking him backward and
getting only portion of the meat.
Quick as thought it made a second
spring, this time not for beef but for
human blood. 1t struck the trainer on
the right arm and breast with one Of its
great claws, tearing through his cloth
ing and flesh, intlicting seven deep
gashes in the fleshy part of his arm. The
other claw struck his hip, tearing of the
clothing, while its terrible jaws closed
over the trainers arm just below the ell
bow. The man never moved muscle
nor for moment took his eyes from
those of the tiger, whose savage nature
was beginning to assert itself; its tail
lashed its great striped sides and its eyes
flashed fire. The nerve of the trainer
saved his life He called TO the attend
ants near, Bring the scrapers," all the
time keeping his eye fixed on that of the
beast and talking in low tone to it.
1t seemed an age, but it was only q
few seconds, before two attendents, half
dead with fear, thrust the iron rods
through the cage against the sides of the
tiger. The beast, which the trainer. pin
ioned as he was, still had partly under
control, loosened his hold and crouched
back in his cage, while the man backed
slowly from the cage. AS the door shut
the tiger gave an angry growl, jumped
forward, but the bars had closed. The
lion showed great excitement and roared
furiously.
The trsiner's life was saved. A great
sigh of relief went up from the excited
crowd. women tainted and men struggled
to get from the tent. The trainer was
conducted TO DIR. Morrow, who dressed
his wounds. He was very weak and
faint from pain and the terrible strain Of
the ordeal through which he had passed,
but bore the operation without flinching.
His arm was badly lscersted from the
shoulder TO the wrist. Three deep outs
were made by the tigers claws in the
fleshy part OF the arm, and seven gashes,
made by the beasts teeth, just below,
penetrated deep into his arm. large
enough to insert mans thumb. After
his wounds were dressed he went to the
hotel. New York Telegram.

Surgical Instruments.

Within the last ten years there has
been a complete revolution in the manu-
facture of surgical instruments. ASti-
septic methods now govern all operations.
Not only are wounds kept free from
bacterial germs by spraying them with
preparations of carbolic acid and other
substances destructive TO such life, but all
the tools employed by the surgeon are
steralized by heat. Even the dressings
are cooked in an oven before they are
applied. BY such means many opera
tions are now performed, with almost
invariable success. which until recently,
were nearly always fatal. For instance,
such operations as laparotomy-lately
performed on james Gordon Bennett
requiring the cutting open Of the abdo-
men, now succeed in ninsty five cases
out of every 100. while formerly only FIVE
persons in 100 recovered. This result 10
wholly due to the discoveries Of the bsc-
teriologists NV sshingtou Star.

ONWARD.
Sometimes when the growing darkness

Sometimes when the growing darkness
At the close Of day,
To the stress of daily labor,
Brings moments stay.
All at once the mind will wander
Back to other years,
See, as in apanorama.
Youthful hopes and fears.
Once again upon the threshold
OF our life we stand,
Aud discern the future glowing
Like the Promised Land.
And the hopes of early manhood
Putting forth their leaf,
Green as are the leaves in Spriugtime,
And their life ls brief.
With q pang do we remember
That We meant to be,
In the battlefield hero,
Crowned with victory.
But, discredited and beaten.
Have been forced to yield:
Or at best are barely able
Still TO keep the field.
On our brow no crown Of laurel
Tells of victory won;
Not for us the song Of triumph
When the day is done.
Other men have reaped the harvest
That we thought TO reap;
Other men have gained The summit
OF the mountain steep.
And our hearts arc bowed with sorrow,
Gazing on that scene,
For n moment, as we picture
All that might have been.
For moment Then our manhood
Puts the sorrow by,
Crushes down again the heart throb,
Quells the rising sigh.
And once more We set our faces
stcrnly toward the front,
Brace again our nerves and sinows
For the battles brunt.
Onward! With success or failure,
We have naught to do.
Ours to do our duty nobly
All fe's journey through.
And, although success would cheer us,
As we onward pod,
We can bear the doom OF failure,
BY the help OF God.

DEATH OF Col. BASIL BRAwNER.-
This well known and respected gentle
man who has been one of our COM
munity for the past quarter of a CEN
tury, died at his residence, in this city
yesterday. He had been house-bound
for some time-never having recovered
from the effects of Injuries received by
being struck by Runaway horse year
or SO ago. Mr.. Brawner was born on
the present site of the town of Manas-
sas over ninety Years ago, and held
several Offices in the gift of the people
during his life. He was presiding JUS
tice of the Prince William County
Court during the days before the war
rvhGin such tribunals were composed of
magistrates. He served four years il
the House of Delegates and represent
ed for four years the counties of Prince
William, Stafford and King George in
the State Senate. He was also Colonel
of the Saith regiment of Virginia militia
and a member of Acknowledging
ton Lodge of Masops. The deceased

noupced democratic principles which
he ulnswervingly adhered to during his
long and useful life.
