Tbe Wedding; Flower.
The flowering of the "Wedding Flow
er," at Kew this year, is an event of more
than ordinary interest, both to botanists
and horticulturists. It is the giant not
only of the genus Iris, but of the whole
natural order to which, it belongs.
It is found wild only in a small island
off the east coast of Australia, thousands
of miles distant from the habitant of any
other Iris. While all other Irises may be
grown out of doors, or with a little pro-'
tection in winter, this one is happy only
when treated to subtropical conditions.
Its value in horticulture is due as much
to its stature and elegance of foliage as
to the size and beauty of its numerous
flowers.
The flowers lastonlyoneday, but there
are so many of them that the flowering
season, extends over a long period.
This Iris is known far and wide as the
wedding flower. London Garden.
A. College President's Chase.
Harvard men who attended chapel one
morning last week were very much sur
prised to see President Eliot pursuing one
of the students as the men were leaving
the building. Those in the immediate
vicinity heard a very short but animated
conversation. "Young man," said the
president to the individual in question,
who turned around surprised, "young
man, excuse me, but you have my hat."
It was indeed true. In the confusion of
leaving the chapel the student had picked
up the wrong hat and was making away
with the president's best tile. Boston
Gazette.
Cleaning a Marble Statue.
Commodore Perry's marble statue in
Cleveland, having acquired such a heavy'
coating of smoke and soot as to render it
unsightly, was recently scrubbed, but
with the effect of making it look worse
than ever. The black came off the "high
lights." and the smudge is deepened in
the shadows. And, though the brave old
sailor never did a mean thing in his life,
they now talk of giving him a coat of
whitewash. Cincinnati Times-Star.
During one year alone Philadelphia
has devoured 185,475 slaughtered and
dressed calves, 511,142 sheep, 548,940
bogs and 59,290 barrels and 97,890 boxes
of poultry. The hens who were spared
from the hatchet had to lay for the city
16,984,600 dozen eggs. Over 812,188 bar
rels of apples had to be shaken from the
trees and 3,063 carloads of potatoes dug
up from the ground. During the twelve
months the city made havoc of 11,118
packages of dried green peas, 119,521
packages of dried fruit and 355,837
packages of berries. The cooks con
sumed 16,489 tierces and 75,031 tubs of
lard, and in the kitchen and on the table
disappeared from 'view the tremendous
amount of 256,591 tubs, 33,384 firkins
and 87,846 boxes of butter. A huge heap
of crackers must have been swallowed
along with the 226,459 big boxes of
cheese.
During one year Philadelphia con
sumed nearly 3,500,000 bushels of grain,
including nearly 1,500,000 bushels of
corn, 877,508 bnshels of wheat, 98,425
bushels of rye, 1,056,300 bushels of bar
ley and 203,600 bushels of malt. Out of
these 877,508 bushels of wheat were
manufactured 195,002 barrels of flour,
and from this flour were baked 52,650,
640 loaves of bread. Most of the flour
used by the bakers and the good house
wives is shipped from the northwest, al
ready barreled. This manufactured into
Dread would easily swell the total to
nearly 150,000,000 loaves, or their equivi
lent to a certain extent in rolls, buns
and bakery.
Philadelphia eats daily an enormous
barbecue of 610 calves, 1,410 sheep, 1,610
hogs and 7,550 poultry, besides a huge
banquet of at least 6,000,000 oysters,
626,628 eggs, 856 barrels of apples and 9
carloads of potatoes. Philadelphia Beo

The origin of the names of coins in
present use is carious. In many cases
they imply a standard of weight that
lost its significance long ago. This is
the case with tbe English standard, the
pound. The word shilling is of German
derivation, like penny, which conies
from the German pfennig. The word
"crown" comes from the image placed
on the coin. The name franc was given
try King John, who first coined these
pieces in VMH). They bore the motto
Le Roi Frank" (Kiug of the Franks)
and were of two kinds, one representing
the king on horseback, the other on foot.

Captain John Richards, of the British
ship Cambrian Monarch, reports having i
passed within half a mile of a pinnacle
rock, showing about seven feet above the
water, in latitude 29 degs. 2 sees, north,
longitude 137 degs. 59 sees. west. No
soundings were taken and no discolored
water was seen except close to the rock.
The sea was smooth, and from the top
sail yard the rock appeared to be about
nine feet in diameter at the water's edge,
but much larger under the water. Cap
tain Richards says he is sure that it was j

Played Cards During the Service.
There is great excitement at Wingate,
Ind., over the arrest of a young man and
a yonng woman for playing "seven up"
at a meeting in the Christian church on
Sunday evening. Adolphus Ochletree
and Miss Mary Prudy are lovers, and
went to church together that evening.
Not enjoying the prayers and songs,
Adolphus tore the backs off a number of
singing books and manufactured a deck
of cards on the spot. The young people
then played "seven up." They were ar
rested and fined, both pleading guilty.
Cor. Chicago News.
A man at Quebec, who received a fear
ful and almost fatal shock by touching
an electric light wire, and suffered very
keenly afterward, says that he was at
once relieved by taking off his shoes and
Btockings and walking barefoot over the
damp earth.
The great railroads running from the
northwestern part of our country to the

Bronze, spoken of in the Bible as brass,
is of very ancient origin. We have little
or no notion how the ancients got cop
per: but in all probability large quanti
ties were formerly found in the metallic
state, just as we find it now in the neigh
borhood of Lake Superior in America
and Baikal take in Siberia. This would
only have required melting to yield a
tolerably pure metal. If, however, they
smelted copper from its various ores, it
is difficult to realize how they could
overcome such a complicated process,
and we can only admit that in this re
spect, as in so many others, tbe ancient
people of Europe were very much cleverer
than we moderns are apt to believe.
