DR.. Lee was driving his horse Ben
In from the Poor Farm, when he re-
ma; ked 70 his son that the horse had
seen so much service hal he proposed
TO drive him no more but put him on
the pension list.
Hardly had the words left his
mouth when the horse stepped on a
rolling stone and went down, break
ing his left hind leg in several places,
He had to be shot to put him out of
his misery. The Doctor has had the
morse for years and was greatly at
tached TO him. He had fully deter
mined that yesterday would see his

which the Government, by solemn enactment
has undertaken to keep at par with gold. NO

eminent. The banks are not required to redeem
IN gold. The Government is obliged to keep
equal with gold all its outstanding currency and

Is especially so In times Of business panic and

true that the greater part OF the proceeds Of
these bonds was used to supply deficient reve-

With our revenues equal TO our expenses, there
would be no deficit requiring the issuance Of

Two counterfeit United States bonds,
81, 900 each, dated June 15, 1866, were
presented at the Treasury a few days
ago for payment. The imitation of the
genuine is so complete that many Of
the principal dealers in United States
securities purchased them freely, and
only discovered that they had been
victimized when the bonds were
thrown out by the authorities at Wash
ington. The only marked difference
between the original and the counter
felt is found in the red seal, the points
surrounding the seal in the genuine
being broader, more clearly defined
and not so long. These are part Of
lot Of counterfeits made in 1867. At the
Secret Service Department it is said
that the plate from which these bonds
were printed was captured November
q, 1867, from w. q. BrOckway, who

The Washington monument, at
Washington City, 555 feet high, bends
to the extent of about four inches on
a hot day. Scientists have not yet
reached unanimous opinion as to the
real reason of the monuments varia-
tion, but it is generally believed that
it is due to the expansion and contraC-
tion of the sides of the monument un-
der the suns heat. A very delicate
apparatus has been placed in the mon
ument,. to detect the least variation
from the perpendicular. This consists
of pendulum, the slightest vibration
of which Is recorded by means Of two
telescopes with hair line perpendicu-
lars in them. This pendulum is sus
pended in a protecting cylinder Of
sheet iron, and is imperviOus to all out
side influences. The pendulum proper
is heavy brass weight, weighing prob
ably twenty pounds, and it Is sus-
pended by brass wire, which Is at
tached to a level iron girder exactly
174 feet above the level Of the monu-
ment This point is the center of gray
ity Of the marble shaft, and the 81 1720
tons of marble incorporated in the pile
are equally distributed above and be-
low this point. If this center Of grav-
ity should ever get outside the base Of
support of the monument the shaft
would fall. 1t is, therefore, more i'm
portant to detect the actual variation
of this point than it would be to meas
