The Chinese in California do not de¬ posit their saving:) in our banks, but leave their surplus earnings with some storekeeper for safety until they ar« ready to send the money to China. The storekeeper does not pay the dej> 08 itor any interest; on the contrary, lie charges him a small sum for taking care of the money. Tin- result is some of the prin¬ cipal merchants in San Francisco have a large amount of money in their hands all the time. The danger of being robbed is very slight, as all the employes and attaches of the store sleep there, and there is no time, day or night, but what some one is awake and moving about. The money is generally kept in a fire proof safe or vault —San Franeisco Cor. Chicago Herald. Fortunes of the Rothschild*. It would seem that the fortune of the Rothschild dynasty is getting scattered by the recent marriages of the young people. Now it is Mile.

Ephrussi and another Lady Rose- berry. Tradition says that the old Baron James left a fortune of 830,000,000 francs, which was divided among his children, four sons and a daughter, the Baroness Nathaniel. Thus each inherited 175,000,- 000 francs, which have doubtless increased and multiplied.—The Argonaut. An Astronomer in Command. Gen. Mitchel was at this time 52 year* old. He was of an extremely wiry frame, and was possessed of wonderful endurance. His hair had lately grown gray, which made him look older than he really was. He was accustomed to ride a horse whose gait was si pace. On this horse he was all over the camps at all hours of the night and day. The guards were never certain of his coming. The men soon learned of liis previous occupa¬ tion, and called him “Old Stars.” A sentinel who had been repeatedly visited while on duty once remarked that he “never could look up without seeing ‘Old Stars’ coming along on his screw propeller.”—“Life of O.

For some time past it has been ru¬ mored that a new method in the treat¬ ment of the crown prince's illness had been adopted, and The Munich Neueste Nachrichten recently stated that launched this new treatment was based on a theory by Dr. Freund, of Vienna, who found that the blood of patients suffering from cancer contained an abnormal quantity of sugar, and that cancerous growths might be destroyed by reducing the sugar in the blood to its normal quantity. This statement is brought into notice by telegrams from San Remo, stating that the crown prince began the new treat¬ ment on Nov. 20, and that since then his condition has been steadily improving. still Dr. Freund is no specialist, and is last a young man. He took his degrees year, but his name becaipe known by a paper published in The Wiener Medicin- ische Blatter in February, 1885, in which he proved the connection between sugar and cancer. Another paper of his on the non-coagulation of blood on oiled sur¬ faces was mentioned last year, and since then lie has discovered that tuberculous growths invariably contain cellulose.— London Times. n."

AND IS OMR MOKE “TUE LAND OF THE FREE.” The Rebel Flairs Safely Confined and Snickersnee Uoutelle Rreathesigain. Louisville Courier Journal The country can breathe sguiD, now that the Hon. Snickersnee Boa telle’s resolution of inquiry concern iog the whereabouts of the captured Confederate flags has been fully and definitely answered by the Secretary of War, to whom it -was addressed. The flags, notwithstanding Mr. Bontelle’s alarm, are all there— all that were delivered to Mr. Endicott by Lis predecesssr in the War De¬ partment. Not one of them has got away. Not ODe of them has been turned loose. Not one of them, therefore, is roaming about over the country like a roaring lion, or a Maine Congressman, or an Ohio Governor, seeking whom it may devour. The blizzard is still un caged ; the cyclone is still at large; the rail load telescope is still rain pant; but, thanks to the stars that watch ever ns in their courses, the Confederate flags are safely confined high up in one of the buildings of the War Department. Now that Mr. Boutelle’g inquiry has definitely established this fact, an American citizen can venture out of bis house at night with fears of being set upon by nothing worse than a sand-bagger or a banana peel ing ; he can go down to his business in the morning without bidding his wife and little ones tearfully fearful farewells ; he can revoke his stern orders not to allow his children to step beyond the door unless safely secured by heavy chains against any chance flag which may swoop down upon them and carry them off; he may eveu attend church on Sunday without hiring an armed escort to ac company him ; while the young man who has a best girl can once more Bitin her presence the happy posses sor of arms for other employment than holding Davy pistols and Win Chester rifles. In Bhort, a resident of the United States can again feel more like an American citizen and less like the Czar of Russia. Even Brother Boutelle, the most succu lent of all morsels to the teeth of a rebel flag, can iis him down to pleas ant dreams at night without looking under the bed for a murderous rebel flag and without placing his snicker SDee beneath his pillow ; while he cm wait the whole distance of Penn sylvaaia avenue to the halls of Con*- grets without carrying that terrible weapon drawn before him, and once safely in the House he can bend bis potent intellect, undisturbed by thoughts of a nation’s peril from red an 1 ravenous, wild and insatiate flags, to the more peaceful states manship of steal Lg 't e hade for the town of Eastpoit aud preserving a prohibitive tariff for the rest of the country. As fer the effect of this teport by Secretary Endicott upon our neigh bor- the State of Ohio, we should l.ko to say something, but can’t. No one can tell what Foraker will con elude to doabeutit. If it were my one else but Foraker we might haz ard an assumption, at least; but it is Foraker, and the finite [mind that so forgets itself as lo attempt to make a prediction as to the action of another so far beyond finite com prenension as Foraker’s, is capable of trying to briDg down the man in the mooD with a bean-shooter. He may not accept the xepoit of tb* Secretary of War, and decline to put Oliio on a peace footing, He may have reason to sn pect that the Endi cotl leport is only a shrewd strate gem of the flags in order to throw him eff his gnard, and accordingly refuse to disband the Army of Ohio and convert their B*ords into plow shares for the peaceful pursuit of raising another crop of political atinks during'tbe campaign this sum mer. Be that as it may. however, the country will in all probability take Mr. Eudicott at his word, and the pauie will end, the people being satisfied that those rebel flags which mere liberated by Secretary Stanton and other Repnblican officials, bate certainly Lind their thirst tor blood satiated or their fangs extracted by this time.

Why, then, the neceesity of starving the “lady we board with?” While the cold winds howl over the land about Christmas lime, chasing old bachelors like yourself to their lonely dens, we sit arcund the heat tx at the home made happy by the pre sence of our “wiregrass variety,” roast potatoes, spank the baby and grow up with the cotmtry.
