The question has been often asked
"what has become OF the money OF the
country" A writer to the Pail Mall
Gazette of London calls attention to the
enormous accumulation OF gold in that
financial center, the amount of gold now
in the Bank of England being nearly
S2O0,000,000, "a sum unprecedented in
the history Of that institution. Referring
to this fact the writer states that as after
1867 and 1866 it is 'once more watch
ing for the time when the mighty tor
rent OF gold will again burst the dam and
cause a general and rapid movement IN
value Of securities. People must have
something for their money, and the ques-
ton soon must be who is going To set

kingdoms Of the Bechuana tribes and
learned that the SO called ruins of Mono
patopa were only a remarkable freak Of
nature. He went as far as the Nam 'Bwe
falls of the Zambezi river, but was not
molested by the natives ON account of
his policy Of conciliating the king Of a
tribe before he entered his territory.
In 1880 he returned to Austria, where
Emperor Franz Joseph invited him TO
Vienna and contributed a large sum to-
ward the expenses of another explora-
ton tour. The remainder of the sum

The only serious objection raised by
opponents to the introduction of the
Torrens' system Of land transfers in this
state, is the probability that many titles
are already so complicated that all the
necessary investigation required during
the five years given to adjust all claims,
hear and remote, against a title, before
it becomes absolute and subject TO GER
titicate only OF the county register,
would not be sufficient to clear up all
doubt or contingencies of title, and that
If all titles were SO transferred to the
new system it might work hardship to
some remote claimant who had not had
notice or opportunity to protect his
Claim. Granting there would be such
it is not a valid reason for the rejection
OF the whole system. Such instances in
this new country We apprehend would
be very rare; but granting they were
even twenty-five per cent, which We can
not believe they are, there ie still much
to be gained in adopting the system for
the other seventy five per cent now in
existence besides all the new patents
and deeds TO be issued for the first time
in this state. The doubtful ones could
be easily detected by the examiners and
listed in a separate category and provis-
ion made for a more extended period and
process OF final adjudication, by which
In time even they would work into the
regular system. 1t is hardly fair that a
cumbersome system Of entail and trans
fer as well as heavy tax on the people
should be continued because OF these
few litigated cases. For the ultimate
good oil all concerned, there should be
some end TO contest in even these com
piicated cases., whereby title is set at
rest, as there must be TO any other case
which goes to the decision OF the highest
court and must abide thereby.

The fall OF Caprivi was predicted nj
least by one observer. This is MI. Dom

the young e~nlperor's head and found 1t
sadly lacking in ''concentrativeness. "
A man with such y head must have
changes, and 20 Mr., Donovan predicted
% year ago that Caprivi would speedily
go the way of Bismarck. The phrenol-
ogist's advice to Prince Hohenlohe is as
follows: In order to keep the emperor
out of mischief his love of travel should
be encouraged as much as possible. He
should 20 to Chicago next year and

FROM THRILLING CIRCUMSTANCES.

Indications In the Boys Life That Prove
Prophetic Of His Future.
Carlyle says that you can tell how a
man would do anything from the way
he sings. However this may be, it is
certainly true in nine cases out of ten
that you can tell what sort of a man the
boy will make from seeing him at play
when obliged to stay indoors without a
companion. Lord (then plain William)
Armstrong, the famous engineer, was a
delicate boy, and one winter when Q
years old was confined to the house for
months. To amuse himself he set several
old spinning wheels in motion by
weights descending ON strings from top
to bottom of the house over the staircase
railing.
Friends and relatives brought mechan.
ical toys for the little prisoner, which
he at ono pulled to pieces. 1t was not
satisfactory to him to see Jack" jump
up in the box" when the lid was
raised. He would know what made
Jack" spring up.
One day, while fishing near a rustic
mill, the water wheel attracted his at
tention, because it was fed by q rill
above which descended from O height of
nearly 100 feet. Seeing that only 90 feet
of the descent was utilized, he pondered
the question, why not use the whole
descent of the stream as a motive pow.

and it attracted the attention Of leading
