Buenos Ayres, November 18,— The tornado which swept over Santa Fe province Friday night played havoc with property and crops. The loss, it is said, will amount up into u million dollars.

Tbomasville, Ga , Nov. 21 —Sev er il parties have just returned from the lake that’s going dry. ’ They report ab.out five or six acres under x ater yet, but this will all disappear in a few days. Cooters, fish and ’ga tors are in thousands. The island in the center of tho lake appears Heap of 16,400,000 Penuies. The officials of the sub-treasury in Wall street are struggling with a plethora of bronze cents. Stored away in different parts of the big vanltsjare 16,400,000 of them. As 1,000 cents weigh seven pounds, the weight of woe that is oppressing the officials amounts to 78,800 pounds, or more than thirty-six tons. The accumulation is credited to the cent in-tbe lot machines. There is also in the sub-treasury $65,000 iu nick les, presumably contributions from the nickle-in-tho slot machines. A KIND OF MADNESS. Avarice certainly seems more like a madness than a crime. The miser is like the foul who would spend his life in accumulating lakes of pure, cold water, and yet suffer thirst. What is money but the re piesentatfve of things for use and enjoyment? Then what is the board rr of gold but a crazy fellow who thiuks more of the key to a palace than of all the comfort and beauty stored in its spacious halls and chambers? N. Y.

Chicago, Nov. 25.—Great con sternation was caused among the | patrons of the restaurants, board iog houses aud retailers who deal in (cheap moat iu this city by the (rests of George Youngclaus, of 1714 Fifty-first street, on charge of sel ling horse flesh, labeled as beef, to such institutions. On Lie premises the officers found a lot of horse flesh in pickle, verifying the report that Youngclaus was shortly to Bell on contract a quality of "corned beef ” Mr. T’ B.

This cotton was planted laie v , May 1st, and was not chopped out until the 6th of June, when there was more grass than cotton. Rev. Walter Binnsof Wilkes coun ty killed two remarkably fine hogs lust vve9k. One netted 345 pounds and tlie other 320. And these hogs were not a year old, either. Young Men That Aro Plenty. “It is very diilicult,” said a business man, “to make people understand that one can’t always employ young men starting in life just to please our friends who recommend them to us. It’s bad business policy to employ more men than one needs. In these days of close competition, no business man can afford to spend money unwisely. A certain volume of business justifies and demands a certwn expenditure iu salaries to carry 'lot business. on that business. It isn’t fair to us to ask us to increase our salary list when there is no excuse for so doing. It isn’t fair to our trusted and efficient employees to ask ns to employ new men and yet maintain our salary list. We can do this only in two ways. One is to pare off enough from tlie salaries of the old men to provide salaries for tlie new men. Another is to discharge old men to make room for the new. You see that both plans are out of the question, other things being equal. “People wild send promiscuous letters of recommendation often cause us a great deal of embarrassment. One likes to please a friend, and yet one canuot always, in justice tp himself or others, do this. And have you over noticed how many of theso letters of introduc tion describe tho bearers of them us bril liant young men, who will prove of value to those who employ them? Hard ly one man in a thousand of those de scribed in this way fulfills the promises made for him. Do thosp who write such letters ever consider that if a big busi ness liouso employed all the men who brought letters of recommendation to the firm it would bo overwhelmed with employees within a year and driven into bankruptcy in two years by its stupen dous salary list?—New York Tribune. Didn't Ktiov* It Wasn't Loailrd. A well dressed man made a bold at tempt to commit suicide at Briggs' gun store, in Chester. He asked to be shown a 88-caliber Smith & Wesson revolver. The stranger examined it intently, aud then questioned Mr, Briggs as to the method of loading it. He appeared to be ignorant of the manner of using fire arms. Tlie modus operandi was ex plained to him. Tho stranger insieted that u cartridge be placed in the revolver, but u certain look in the man's lace excited Mr. Briggs’ suspicion, and pretending to charge a chamber lie banded over the empty revolver. In u flash the stranger placed the muzzle to his breast and pulled the trigger. Bitter disappoint ment swept over his fuoe wheu there was only a harmless click, “You can’t harm yourself, friend,“’ re marked Mr. Briggs, "tho revolver is empty. Give me tho pistol." The in tended instrument of death was returned, when the stranger said: "l intended to commit Buicide, and uiy mind was fully made up when i entered your storo. 1 had no revolver of my own, and I thought 1 could get a chance to shoot myself by pretending to tfiako a purchase, I have lmd trouble more than 1 thought 1 could bear, but the last straw was laid on last night. If you had loaded that revolver 1 would have been a dead man now.” The stranger hurriedly left—Cor. Phila delphia Telegraph.

While extending and repairing tho old buildings of tho into Royal Naval school at New Cross, H. E., which is shortly lo be opened by the Goldsmiths’ company as their Technical and Recreative insti tute,• it became necessary to remove the floor of the old gymnasium. In doing so the workmen discovered tlie skeleton of a cat in close juxtaposition to that of a rat. The bodies of tlie animals were not quite two inqlies apart in n sort of a wedged Bhaped cul do sac, whioh was wider at the top thun the bottom, nnd so preventing tlie cat from quite reach ing tlie rat. When found, the entrance to the hole or passage was filled up with •lust and rubbish, and there was nothing to prevent egress of the animals by the way they had entered except the disiu 3lination of the cat to leave its prey. The skeletons when found were more than half covered with dust from tlie floor above them, and liavo probably been many years in the position thej were found, in whicli position Mr. Red iiinyne, secretary of the Goldsmiths' in stitute, has laid them carefully mounted and photographed. A curious coinci dence is that exactly tlie Biuno discovery of tho skeletons of a cat and rat togeitiie* under a door occurred while pulling down some old buildings to construct the People’s palace, which is the imme diate predecessor of the Goldsmiths’ in stitute.— Pall Mall Budget. Julian Uawthorno Outrnwed. A small party of Philadelphia and New York newspaper men and authors spent Sunday at tho Delaware Water Gap as the guest of Mr. George W. Childs, who entertained them with his customary lavish hospitality. Paul II. du Chaillu, Joseph M. Styddurt, II. B. Gross. Henry C. Walsh and Melville Philips went from this city, and Julian Hawthorne, John Habberton and Nugent Robinson came ou from New York. An interesting feature of the jaunt was a boat race lato on Saturday after noon in which all the guests participated with a rather extraordinary result. Julian Hawthorne, with all his bleeps, came iu lust, u good two lengths in the rear of John Habberton. it was a neck- to-neck contest lor several hundred yards betweeu Paul du Chaillu and Henry C. Walsh, the African hero, however, a conspicuous object in his white flannels, winning by a powerful spurt.—Philadel phia Press. Work That Never Stops. Upper Broadwuy presents n weird sceuo these summer nights. The flare of torches, the chink, chink, chink of tho drill, and the swinging lanterns above tho workmen in the trenches greet re turning amusement seekers. This, labor goes on all night and continues all day, tlie day being punctuated by dull rever berations of tho dynamiters that make the contiguous buildings tumble. All this is the forerunner of Colonel Dan La- mont’s cable railway. In the lower city other night workmen are sinking test holes in anticipation of the rapid transit tunnels. There is al ways a little knot of moro or legs belated people gathered about these busy fellows in the pits. They pause for a momekt and then trudge along homeward. Every thing else but the streets is shut up. Broadway is opou all night.—New York Herald. Jlnrikshiia for Chicago. There were taken out of the Chicago custom house a few duys ago a lot of queer looking packing cases, bearing upon their exterior some peculiar hiero glyphics that were undecipherable t< Uncle Ham’s clerks. The boxes wer+ claimed by Isaac Woolf, the west side merchant, to whom they were consigned from Japan. They contained the parts of two of those Japanese vehicles known us jinriksha8, which are to be used in the west side parks for the amusement of the little folks. Mr. and Mrs. Woolf while traveling in Japan became so im pressed with this kind of vehicle that they decided to bring .two of them to Chicago and two Japanese runners to draw them.—Philadelphia Ledger. Tired of Ueing a Freak. •‘Darky Sam,” the county infirmary character who has been posing as a prince of the royal blood of Fiji with the col lection of freaks and curiosities in a small traveling circus, returned to the poorhou.- ts recently, content to retire to private life. To heighten the outlund- ishuess of-Sam’s natural appearance his exhibitors had shaved his head, with the exception of a strip extending from fore head to occiput, resembling tho reached mane of a mule.
