There has been a large increase of the number of scholars in the schools of England since Sept. 1, when the free ed ucation act went into force. The man agers of schools advised the parents of the scholars to pnt into savings banka for the lienefit of their children the three pence per week that bad previously been paid for the education of each child, and school savings banks were established to recelve.theso deposits. This advice was followed by largo numbers of parents in various parts of England, and the banks have already been of service. In the city of Manchester, for example, more than 9,000 new accounts have been opened in them .the first month. The small funds thus deposited will be useful to the chil dren hereafter.—London Letter. Cheap Chest Protectors.

A wicked Connecticut thunderbolt got hold of a Tartar at the Cheney farm at North Haven a few days ago when ll tackled a barbed wire fence that encir cles a big lot belonging to Mr. Cheney. The bolt hit the fence near the hotue, split itself in two. nnd the divided bolt went entirely around the field in oppo site directions at the sunie time. Tile wires jingled like a cotton spindle, bnt held their own pretty well, though the bolt yanked ontof tbe ground eleven posts that carried the wires.—New York Son.

New York's Army of Dependents. Did you ever stop to think how large is New York’s standing army of depend ents, and what persons, nnder the com missioners of charities and correction, constitute it? According to the last re port by the commissioners tbe total number of disabled, infirm, demented, minor or delinquent persons under pub lic charge in- the workhouse, city hos pitals, almshouses, jails, insane asylums and on Blackwell's island amounted, when the lost census of them was taken, to 13.848.

One morning about three weeks ago George Pbanp, of Chesterfield, Va. beard two bonnds rnnniug a deer, bnt as this was no nnoanal occurrence in his neighborhood he paid no attention-to it. Later in tbe day, while about to cross the Appomattox river bridge below his house, he was surprised to recognize the voices of the same two bonnds be had heard in the morning, and this time they were haying something in a slash on the low grounds, which, on Investigation, proved to be an enormous back that had got hnng in such a manner that despite his frantic efforts he could not release himself. Mr. Plump had no weapon other than a pocketknlfe, bnt he attacked tbe ani- mid with that, and succeeded after desperate straggle with the thoroughly enraged buck in cutting his throat. The final and most difficult task was getting his prize on the bone, bnt he soon ao- complished this, and your hnmble serv ant had a piece of the venison for break fast the next morning.—Cor. American Field. Saturn's Ring* Disappear. According to Professor George C. Corn- stock, of tbs Washburn observatory, Madison. Wis., the phenomenon of the disappearance of the rings of Saturn has just occurred. Once in fifteen yean the earth in its motion abont the snn passes through the plane of the rings of Satnrn, so that they are turned edgewise toward and windows and flattered’around the the earth.

This is a great year for big crops Now it is the salmon, crop that exceeds anything In tbe history of the country. Puget Bound Js reported to be so filled j with salmon, making their annual run to the sound shores and the fresh water | streams for feeding and spawning, that the steamboats seem to be floating on a I solid man of fish. The paddles kill hundreds of them and are choked wit h their bodies The sound steamer cap tains describe .the run ns an unbroken etringof salmon 'thirty miles long, tbe I water for that distance being fairly alive with them. Neither the oldest inhabitants nor tbe j aged Indians remember such a big salmon run. The result of tbe enormous ran is I a big redaction in prices Usually good salmon sell for ten to twenty-five cents apiece, bnt now at one cent each tbe | market is glutted witb the finest quality of fish.
