SOME HISTORICAL LIES.

THE African king Prester John never had an existence.
 THERE never was such person as Pope Joan, the so-called female pom tiff.
 WILLIAM TELL did not found the Swiss confederation, and the story of Gessler has no historic basis.
 THERE is no historic authority for the statement that little George Washington cut down the cherry tree.
 WELLINGTON at Waterloo did not say: up, guards, and at 'em!" The words were put into his mouth by an imagin- ative writer.
 CHARLEMAGNE's paladins had no ex- istence, and the history of Charlemagne himself is so clouded by myth as to be utterly unreliable.
 THE mother of Coriolanus did not in tercede with her son to spare Rome. The story has no better foundation than that of Horatius.
 THERE is no reason to believe that Tarquin insulted Lucretia. His power was overtllrown in a popular tumult, which is the only basis for the story.

 Reports of unusual volcanic activity all along the line of the continental backbone have been coming in since the beginning of the year, and those more recently to hand indicate a steadily increasing disturbance. Alarm ing accounts arrived last week from Mexico of the condition of Colima, which, pouring forth vast volumes of lava and regular bonn bardment of rocks and ashes, had sent the people of Jalisco fleeing in terror from their houses. Only few months ago dispatches from Chili and Peru told of fierce outbursts among the volcanoes of the southern Andes, and, later yet, of the seismic disturbance in the volcanic region of Cauca, in Colombia, by which an entire mountain ridge was swallowed up and deep de- pression left, while elsewhere in that same region two rivers were buried by the side of a mountain tumbling into the valley

Burning Mountains of South and Central
 America That Do Deadly Work.
 The volcano of Abina, in Peru, which for century and half had been con sidered extinct, suddenly awole from its long sleep the other day and began pouring forth lava, smoke and ashes in such quantities as to obscure the sun up to the date of the last report, says a Panama correspondent of the Phila- delphia Press.
 Together with this news comes an account of remarkably severe earth quakes in Ecuador that shook the whole Pacific slope and extended far into the interior. A series of rapid, violent shocks continued one minute and some seconds. It created the greatest terror in Guayaquil, where at every convulsion it appeared as though the pile-built structures must go over. However, no damage to speak of oc- cured there, but several accounts of disasters had arrived from the in terior. At Canar seven families and their homes are known to have been swallowed up by the earth. One cu- rious incident at Guayaquil was the bursting open of the doors of the peni- tentiary. Many convicts escaped be- fore the demoralized guards could pull themselves together to prevent it. Then the guards fired indiscriminately on the prisoners, those fleeing from crumbling walls as well as those es- caping. The city waterworks were so damaged that water famine was i'm minent. This series of shocks was felt over an area of eighty thousand square miles. At almost the same time Coto- paxi and Turgurahua burst forth in such terrible activity as has not characterized them during the last two centuries. The South American volcanoes frequently ravage their i'm mediate neighborhood, but it is be. lieved here is another instance that

HE WARMED UP,

The Bank President Lost That Chilly
 Feeling Very Suddenly.
 A well-known contractor walked into bank in this city the other day to cash a check for forty dollars, says the Washington Post. The pay1ng teller looked at the check few minutes, then counted out four hundred dollars, and handed it to the contractor, who, although he noticed the error, said not word, but rolled up the bills and wadded them down into his pocket. This happened in the morning, and about two o'clock the same afternoon, before the officials of the bank had an opportunity to discover the error, the contractor walked into the office of the president of the bank.
 ''Is this bank responsible for the errors of it's clerks?" he asked the pres ident.
 If it can be proved that any of our clerks have erred" replied the presi- dent, in very chilly manner, i've will make the correction"
 ''Well, nobody saw this error made but myself" continued the contractor, land my word ought to be sufficient proof, think"
 ''I am sorry, sir,' said the bank pres ident, ''but we shall have to have ad- ditional proof, We require this in order to protect ourselves; that is all.''
 ''Very well, sir" replied the con tractor, rising to leave. ''T am sorry cannot furnish what you demand. The error I referred to was the payment of four hundred dollars for check that called for only forty dollars; but, as no one saw me receive the extra three hundred and sixty dollars, I suppose you will not want to correct the mis- take. Good day, sir"
 "Hold on! Come back!'' shouted the bank president, who by this time was very 'wide-awake to the abyss to which he had been led.
 The matter was soon adjusted satis- factorily, and now when any person reports an error at that bank the first question asked is: t'In whose favor?''

in this and other countries. The plan is for it to stand in front of the Temple upon large granite base, which will be so modelled as to have drinking troughs for horses and dogs.
 The tender of the gift is made by Anna L. Gordon, superintendent of juvenile work ip the Worlds Women's Christian Temperance union. In her letter to the mayor and common coun- cil she says:
 Tt gives me great pleasure on behalf of thirty thousand boys and girls of this and other countries to ask your acceptance of bronze drinking fountain which they desire to present as their memorial gift to the city which enter tained the Columbian exposition.
 'The unique figure, that of sturdy little child with a cup of water Tn her outstretched hands, was modelled by George E. Wade of London, who has recently executed for the Canadian government a life-sized statue of Sir John Macdonald, and the design for handsome granite base, including troughS for horses and dogs.
 "It is the design that the fountain should be placed near the Temple on La Sale street, and written acceptance of the bronze from your honorable body will greatly oblige."

SENATOR eoRMANs SPEECH

Senator Wolcott, of Colorado, in a
insinuated that Mr.. German and 9TH
er Senators, Democrats and Republi
cans, had changed their votes ON seat
ing Mantle, of Montana, and also on
the silver question, in order to secure
federal patronage from President
Cleveland. Mr.. Wolcott's speech was
a serious reflection upon the Presi-
dent as well as upon Senator German,
and the friends of the latter were
gratified to see with what ability he
rose to the occasion in defence of the
President and himself. He exposed
the disgraceful methods resorted to
by the silver men, under the sanction
of senatorial courtesy" to delay &C
ton on the repeal of the silver law,
and excoriated Wolcott for resorting
to housekeeping to obtain informa-
ton of private conferences held by
the opponents of that law. He paid
a generous compliment to Senator
Voorhees,, who has charge of the repeal
bill in the Senate. With regard to
President Cleveland he said:
"Mr. President, am not the mouth
piece or the spokesman of the Presi-
dent of the United States. His pat
ronage / know nothing of; care moth
ing for it; neither have it or wish it;
but there is no man in the whole I'm
H.
during the whole time he has occupied
the Presidency has been more careful
to avoid using the great power of his
Office. If may criticise him at all it
would be to say that he has been so
careful of it that he has scarcely done
his party justice"
Senator German is not given to
much speaking, in or out of the Sen
ate, but when he does speak the en-
tire country listens.

to secure grass. No doubt at present low
prices wheat can be economically used as food
for animals. All grains fed to animals should
be ground and the use of wheat would add to
the variety of food, which is as essential to
animals as to human beings. There is a lamen-
table ignorance not only as to the kind of food
but as to the proper method of feeding it, 1t
has been the custom of many farmers not to
feed their horses until they begin to work them
in the spring, when they pour the food into
them. 1t would be economy to feed them
grain and set them in good condition before
spring work begins 1t is mistake to over
feed animals that are hard ut work. They
ought to get only the most digestible food, and
that is secured by having the grain ground.
When horses are at work blowing from early
in the morning until late in the evening it
would he wise to give them light feed about
noon. The subject of feeding wheat is impor-
tant. 1t doesn't pay to sell it and if we can
get more by feeding it the practice would be
economical.
The ever-present subject of roads was also
discussed. Mr. John MooreS said the roads OF
the county have never been i'll as good condi-
ton as they are now. Mr.. s. A. Williams re-
marked that the sentiment of the county, as
far as he had observed it, was in favor of the
present plan of road-mending. 1t was the
opinion of the club that the Commissioners
should fill in the ruts in the turnpike recently
made on the Bel Air and Churchvil!e road be-
fore winter sets in. The President, Mr.. Smith,
remarked that this road had been made at con-
siderable expense and should be cared for.
Mr.. a. A. Smith showed some remarkably
large ears of corn that he had obtained from
Mr.. Robert J. Walkers field. They were each
about ~ inches in length, nearly inches in
circumference and filled out to the ends.
