The bill relating to brink currency, which at the President's instigation was reported to the House of Repre sentatives on Monday, and for the pas sage of which all the power of the Ad ministration is to be exerted, amounts to this: The .requirement of Govern ment bonds as security for national bank notes is abolished and the bonds now on deposit are to be returned; the prohibitory tax on State bank currency is repealed, and hereafter the 8,000 and more national and State banks in the forty-four States of the Union, are to be allowed to issue notes to circulate as money up to 75 per cent, of their re spective capitals, aggregating over $1,000,000,000, upon the mere deposit of 30 per cent, in legal tenders ol rhe amount so issued, and of the payment of an annual tax from which a safety fund of five per cent, is to be accumu lated in the course often years: Pro vision is, indeed, made that the notes shall be a first lien upon the assets of the banks issuing them shall be jointly responsible for their payment; but this imposes no restriction upon the amount of their issue. The 30 per cent, in legal tenders deposited as security is not to be held as a special trust fund for the purpose, but like the gold reserve, is to be liable to depletion . whenever the necessities 01 me 1 reasury may require . 1 1 Piron 1. f w . ...... f . . . . r 1 " iiiv, 3 LLIIl.

Hickory Tress: Last Wednesday when the Catawba river was so high, booming from the heavy rains of the two days, the Catawba River Lumber Company had a large number of men employed, in saving their 30,600 or more logs in'their booms on the river. Among the number was Lee Coulter, a colored man of Hickory commonly called "Jumbo." He was in a boat on the river up near where John's river empties intl) the. Catawba river. A log struck his boat and capsized it. He was a good swimmer and pitched out to save his life. He swam heroically for awhile, but the swift current proved too much for him in the burdened con dition lie was in with his clothes on. He sank and came up the third time when he failed to show up again. The people, of the Catawba River Lumber Co., have done all they can to regain the lost body by dredging the river, but have not succeeded in their, efforts. CHARACTER IN WINDOW SHADES. They Tell Tales About the Inmates of the House, a Young Woman Says. "I . don't know anything about the front of a house that more clearly indi cates the character and condition of the inmates than the window shades," said a young woman of observation. "If you seo the shades all drawn down to pre cisely the same level in every window, vou can tell at once, that the house is occupied by a single family and that the mistress is of a severely orderly rf its rest assured. If the shades of all the up stairs windows are drawn down to the top of the bottom sash, while those ! of tbo parlor ar drawn clear down, yoa can sacly judge the family of tnat honso to be one of those essentially do mestic ones that live mostly up stairs, where tho bedroom is at once the wife's sewing room and the husband's library and where tho parlor is only opened on state occasions. If the bedroom window blinds in tho middle story are half way down while those on the top floor and cf tho parlor are away up, you won't be wrong in saying that that house is ruled by tho young folks, who are going to bavo a flood of sunshine in their -bedrooms even if it does fado out the mat ting and who aro not going to have the parlor smelling like a musty old church. "The room with that 0110 window blind run clear up to the topis occupied by a man, and if you see tho window shades at different heights you tako it for granted that they have let lodgings there or that tho housekeeping is 01 a de cidedly frou.-y character. One of the most unfailingly indicative shades is that which runs, diagonally across tho window, with one corner close under the roller and the other half, away down the sash. Tho woman of that window is a slattern, and it's babies to bodkins I that the growler is rarely empty there. "These are, of course, only tho broad indications of the character reading that may bo dono from tho position and wag .of the eyelids of a house, for I suppose it is not forcing a figure 01 speech to ., , .. ., . . .. - .. sav that if the windows aro the eyes ot a house the shades arc tho lids and can . .

While they do not attack men they aro especially destructive of cattle, sheep and oxen, and for this reason parties are formed by hunters and natives to f burn tho bush and forest in order to ex terminate the pests. Some of the sol diers at Pietormaritzburg were recently informed by a party of neighboring Zu lus of the whereabouts of a huge python that hail been destroying their oxen. Tho soldiers, with 200 natives, start ed off to capture the snake, and having located it the forest was fired for about a mile roundabout, an enormous pit having been previously dug in toward tho center of the inclosed space. What with tho burning brush and the shouts of tho Kaffirs they soon drove the r p tile toward the pit, where, closing in upon hini, they forced, him into it. The python proved to be Of enormous size, being 32 feet long and 41 inches in cir cumference. It appeared to be qutte stu pid or dazed, having just eaten a young ox that had been led into the inclosnre. An enormous cage, with iron bars half way down the front, having been constructed, the snake was got out of the pit and taken to. Marit'zbr.rg in. the cage. Here it is kept on exhibition at the barracks, and it is fed twice a week two Kafiir goats at each meal. It wijil not eat anything that has been already killed for it, preferring to kill its food itself. The goats are thrust through a small door at the end of tho cage alive, when, filing its great eyes upon thetn, the snake suddenly, hinges forward and crushes them in its powerful folds. -Aft er covering them with a thick slime ;d most an inch deep before swallowing, it flattens them out. by squeezing th.. m and then.' swallows them :;I:no-t at a gulp. Alter this the python goe-s to sdeop and does not awake until it is time to feed again. Loudon Telegranh.- I and You.

' 'What 13 the great cause of the age?' we simultaneously exclaimed. 'Parliamen tary reform?' said our host, Mr. Peter Taylor; 'The abolition of slavery?' said Miss Redmond, a nogress, Mrs. Tay lor's companion; 'Teetotalism?' stud another; 'Woman's suffrage?' said an other; 'The conversion of the world to Theism?' said I. In tho midst of the clamor Miss Carpenter looked serenely round. 'Why, the industrial school bill, of course ' No one enjoyed the joke, when we all began to laugh, more than tho refoimor herself.

Bow Edward, Prince of Wales, Won the Title of Black Prince. lu tho summer of the year 1316 Ed Ward III crossed the English channel with 30,000 men to invade France. At Crcc, not far from tho Seine, he was met on the 26th of August by King Philip with 180,000. While the French were coming on in great disorder there was a total eclipse Tf the sun, accompanied by a terrible storm, after which the sun came out brightly, shining ' directly in the facis of the French, but on the backs of the English. The first charge was made by 15,000 Genoese bowmen, who came forward with a shout, a3 though' to scaro the English. The latter, who had been or dered to lie flat on tho earth, now arose, stepped forward a paco and let go theii arrows so fast that they seemed like blinding snow. ' . . - ' Tho Genoese flo.d, and the French king ordered them to bo cut down, so that they would not hinder tho rest of ' the army. -. In the meantime Edward, the prince of Wales, who was in command of one division, was surrounded - by French knights, who, recognizing his rank, de termined to capturo or kill him. A mes sages was sent to tho king telling him that tho prince was hard pressed. "Is my son dead or hurt or on the earth felled?" he asked. . "No, sire," was the reply. "Well, then, " said tho king, "return to them that sent you- and. tell ttjem tc send 110 moro to me as long! as my son is alive. I command them to suffer the child to win ' his "spurs, for - this' day should be his. ." . - - .. Tho young prince was indeed in great danger. At one time he was unhorsed and struck to the ground, but one of his Welsh knights, who cartied. the great dragon standard, threw it over him as ho lay and stood upon it till the enemy was forced back. Soon the tide of battle had turned for tho English. Edward came down from a high hill overlooking the field and took his son in his arms and kissed him. "You aro my true eon, " he Baid. "Right royally Iiave you acquitted your self and shown yourself to be a sover eign." - ' ' Young Edward on this occasion wore a suit of black armor, which so contrast ed with his crimson and gold surcoat and tho brilliantly fair complexion of his round, boyish faco that he -was call ed from that timo the Black Prince.

There is only one way to cure deafness and that is by constitution; 1 remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed con dition of the mucous lining of the Eus tachian tube. When this tube gets in flamed you hear a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when It . is en tirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the infhunatidn can be takenout and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an in tunned condition of the. mucous sufaces We wiil give one hundred dollars for any case of deafness (caused' by ca tarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh cure.

An owner of some down town property was awakened by tho loud ringing of his doorbell recently in Harlem. "What on earth is that?" ho exclaim ed. "Is the house 011 fire?" "Somebody's dead," said his wife. In the meantime a servant was return ing1 from answering the bell. " "Please, sir, there's two gents down stairs as wishes to see you," said the girl. "See me?
