William X. Vanderbilt and Grover
Cleveland received, respectively the
lagest and smallest checks ever issued
to individuals the United States gov
eminent. AT one time Mr. Wander
bilt owned $50, 000 600 worth of gov
eminent bonds, and ON this amount
drew annual interest of $50, 90, 600. At
the close of Mr.. Cleveland's second
administration it was discovered, in
settling up his accounts of salary,
that the government owed him one
cent. A check for that amount was
forwarded to him, and as it has never
been presented for payment, it is
probable that the recipient preserved
it as curiosity.

Lady Henry Somerset, the best
known temperance advocate in Eng
land, has arrived in this country in
connection with her chosen work.
Lady Somerset says the temperance
cause has made but little progress in
England of late. When asked her
opinion of Mrs. Carrie Nation, she
laughingly protested against being as
ISOLATED in the public mind with the
Wetsern agitator. MRS. Nation is
an earnest woman, doubtless" said
her ladyship, "but her methods are
bad No law was ever repealed or
amended by breaking another law. "
