Fad for Collecting Menu Cards.

The emperor of Austria's collection
Of menu cards is without its equal in
the world. Numbering 300 examples.
it consists of cards used at court BAN
Quets on festival occasions, and scarce
ly royal house in England is unrep-
resented. The Austrian ambassadors
at the various courts, knowing the en-
peror's hobby, took every opportunity
of collecting for him specimens from
all parts Of the world. The cards are
arranged under the towns from which
they date, shelf in the cabinet being
devoted to each capital. One of the
most interesting and beautiful of all
is the card designed in black marble,
with ivory lettering, by a French ar
fist, for the festival given by President
Faure in honor of the visit of the
car. A special cabinet is reserved
for the menus of banquets given in
honor of Bismarck.

Bic Corn Field.

ssThe biggest corn field in the State of
Kentucky has been laid by. 1t is the
field outlined by the gigantic horseshoe
sweep of the Ohio river from Hender-
son round past Evansville, to Green
river. 1t is the biggest because it is
corn continuously for 5000 or 1000
acres, unbroken by fence, unrelieved
by any other crep-no hay, no tobacco,
oats or wheat-just corn, corn, corn,
and then more corn. 1t is estimated
that over 100000 bushels of corn will
be raised in this monster tract this
year, and this in spite of the fact that
the farmers were scared out of a
years growth by the high water and
for time were not quite sure whether
the high water would let them raise
any corn.

Gold Hoarded in India.

1t was estimated by the London
Statist in November, 1892. that in the
33 years ending with March of that
year, the amount of gold which had
gone to India and been retained, or in
other words, boarded, was no less than
e356, $4,000 This was at the rate
of e1O,75O,OOO per annum. A 5O-year
period is now completed and there is
no reason to suppose that the In
dian boarding has become less. There
are, in fact, some reasons which may
be adduced for supposing that the
amount of gold secreted has tended to
increase.-Wall Street Journal.
