HIU11 MONEY, from the Telegram. When, one week ago, the Bank of England advauced the rate of dieootmt from 3 to 3 per oent, it made the second advance within a fortnight.

For eleven weeks it remained at 3, until April 7, when it dropped to 2 per cent. For three weeka it continued at 2.1?, and on April 28 it was reduoed to the lowest level of 2 per oent. Then for twenty-five weeks it re mained at this reduced rate, rr until October 20. Here the tide turned, and the rate was raited to 3 per cent. At 3 it stood for fourteen weeks, or until January 26, 1893, when it reached to 2. For fourteen weeks again it was at this rate, until about two weeks ago it went up to 3, and in another week jumped to During tbe twelve weeka that have elapsed since Jannary 26, the Bank of England baa lost $8,884,090 speoie. This is largely due tbe domestic de mand, whicb lias taken $8,884,090 n sovereigns from the bank, while foreign exchange bas brought in only a net supply of 81,055,000 gold coin and bullion. On May 11 the bank snowed $120,035,240 specie, and a reserve of $70,680,840, in comparison with $123, 289,355 speoie, and $77,082,805 reserve for the corresponding date one year ago. If this depletion of gold coin goes on, the Bank of England will soon be clamoring with the rest of ua for more silver. EIGHT MILE MATTKH8. We have been having some showers the past week which is very good for orops. Where are the spring poetB? W have looked in vain for a verse in the poet's corner telling us this is spring. "Tbe flowers can bloom, the birds can siug, Tbe gurgling brook runs swiftly by, etc." On the 14th of May, Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Asbbaugb went to chiuoh ex neotiug to hear Rev. J. T.

The horses weut to their post quitely, getting off at the first dash. Cora Jones led from tbe first, gradually gaining till the home stretch was reaohed. Here Sangaroo began to close up, but left tbe track aud ran into the alfalfa for fifty yards or more, reaohing tbe home mark a bad second. Mutuala sold well on this race, and considerable money, changed hands on the outside. Time Tbe next on programme was the sad dle horse race, one-fourth of a mile, with entries Bailie, Nig, Duster, and Pole. Tbey sold Salhe and Nig a tie and Pole favorite. Considerable time was consumed iu making the start, but finally they got off with Sallie in the lead slightly. This position ebo held throughout tbe race, though Pole con tested it hotly throughout tbe raoe. Tbe horses oame in as follows: Sallie, first; Pole, second; Duster, third. f urse $4o, divided, VU, W. and 10 per cent. Time, 0:25. Today the people will be treated to n half-mile dash, free for all ; puree, $125, Also a three-eights dusb, free for all, purse, $100.

A NOTED VACHTMAN. He Organizes the Movers Byndidate Lives in New York. The boat now being built by tbe Rogers syndicate for tbe purpose of defending the America's Cup in the challenging races to take place next summer, is under tbe full oootrol of Arohibald Rogers. Mr, Rogers was the first to move iu the matter of new boats. He formed the "Rog ers Syndicate" Archibald Rogers which oousists of six prominent aud wealthy vaohhnen of the New York Yacht Club. The bout was duly ordered and as Mr. Rogers was asked to take full oontrol of it, he ia a frt queut visitor to the Herreshoff Works, where the vessel is being built. Her dimensions will he iu some particulars aa neraly as possible like the cballeng yalcb of Lord Duuraveo. Mr. Rogers baa loug beer, a successful yaohtman. Interesting if True, It is often a matter of curiosity with the observer of feminine ways to know why women should wear so many orna ments while on the street, savs tho New York Record To see a delicate little woman, whose waist is surrounded bv an enormous belt, from which depend a number of small bottles of glass and silver, watch charms, bangles and heav en knows what besides, is enough to create wonder in the mind of the unini tiated. The habit is looked upon as a fad. Probably it is, but an English writer says it is something more. Thi learned Britisher asserts that the Amer ican girl carries in the little bottlee which dandle from her belt a lot of qui nine pills. When she grows weary from the exertions of a shopping tour she takes two pills; if chilly, one pill; when hungry, which is often the case, down go two pills; if she pvts her feet wet she swallows an nnthloto in the shape of ten pills. This is one of those thingt which may be described as interesting If true. LlEIgP IV C. T. U. COLUMN. TUB PliEDaE.

The smallest floworin? plant, accord in"' to Loudon Tid-liits, is wolflia I microscopies, a native of India. It belongs to the duck-weed family. It is almost microscopic in size, destitute of proper sU-m, loaves and roots, but hav ing these organs merged in one, form ing a frond. There is a prolongation of the lower surface, the purpose of which seems to be to enable the plant to float upright iu tho water. The fronds multiply by sending out other fronds from a slit or cavity and with such apidity does this t.me place that a few dnvs often Mitlico to produce from a few individuals enough similar ones to cover many square rods of pond sur face with the minute green granules. .mall us those plants are they bear lowers. Two are produced on a plant. m-h of them very simple, one of a single atiimon uud the other of a single pistil, both of which burst through tht upper surface of the frond. Calculation on a Potato. Did you ever calculate the value ot a single potato on tho basis that the single tuber was the only one loft in tho world? That ono would, of course, contain within itself the possibility of restocking the world with a valuable article of food. If ono potato would produce, whon planted, but 10 potatoes, in ton years the total product of that one potato would be 10,000,000,000 which would stock the whole world with soed. If the world were reduced to one single potato, it would be bettor that London or Chicago bo blotted from the onrth than for that one t uber to be lost.
