The losses by the collapse of the San
Francisco wheat deal are now given as
seven and a half millions of dollars, and
of this peat sum the millionaires who
own the Nevada Bank stand to lose all
but about a million. That sort of fun is
too expensive, even for such high rollers
as Mackey, Fair et al.

Jonathan Bell, of Oglethorpe county,
Ga., had his coffin made a number of
years ago. He told his friends a few
days ago that he would soon die, and to
send for his coffin. He then ordered it
made water-proof, and he had the maker
to fill it full of water, screw the lid om
and turn it over and over. They did so
in his presence, and he was satisfied. He
died the next day and was laid away to

And now an Iowa man who has spent
fourteen years upon the problem claims
that he has made an anger that will bore
a square hole. His invention is simply
projecting lips, which cut out the corners
in advance of the chisel. The rest of the
machine is an almost exact counterpart
of the old style boring machine. It wil
cut a 2x4 mortise in from four to five
minutes with perfect accuracy, that a car-
penter cannot complete in less than half
an hour,

Henry 8. Ives hae begun to talk, and
is letting out by piece-meal the secrets
ofthe B, & O. deal. He has said enough
already to put a different face on some
matters which have borne hardly against
him in the public mind, and justify the
conclusion that be has been as much
sinned against as sinning. The manner
Ives in the B. £0. sale and the causes
which led to it are not such as to crown
him with glory, but rather the reverse,
Garrett, it is known, was hard up, and so
was his corporation, and with loans fall
meet them, he was given the alternative
of breaking with Ives and placing the B

syndicate, or being forced into bankrupt-
cy and having the road put into the
hands of a receiver. The ethics of Wall
to say the least,
New York has a Saturday balf holiday
law. The N.Y. Observer gives ita opin-
a regular inatitntion will have to be aban,
doned for the present, or postponed un
til the world has more leisure than it has
now. Business men and
generaily are revolting against the ens-
tom and refasiong to observe it any long:
er. The fact that Saturday afternoon
was constituted a legal holiday by the
last Legislature makes no differance in
the aspects of the case except in banks
and exchanges, The enactment of the
law was plainly a piece of folly and was
done simply a8 a bid for the favor of the
so-called “laboring class,” and not from
any humane or philanthropic motives,
A half-holiday on Saturday the year
round would be a good thing if it could
be brought about by honest and rational
methods, but the attempt to force it uvp-
on the business community by a statute
framed in the interests of truckling poli
ticians will do the movement far more
harm than good.
VETOED PENSION BILLS,
| The recent agitation of the
| vetoes of President Cleveland show a re-
| markable degree of ignorance on

| to the exact natnre of these vetoes. That
from prejudice is so easily disproved by
| able illustration of ignorance, coupled

erties are such that it is easy for the une

many of the articles used are deleterious

have a Veterinary Board to examine the

4 Because it will make a fence over rough and uneven ground, or up and down hill alike,
making as good a fence as on even, level ground; and the machine being adjustable, the pickets
are all woven plumb,
5 Because the Monarch machine stretches the wire tighter, thus making the strongest and

6 Because auy one, man or boy, can operate it, and there are no parts to get out of order and
repair,
