The expenses of Great Britain are now about £100.000,000 yearly, or nearly £200 per minute, but every tick of the clock represents an inflow of a little over £2 into the treasury, thus leaving an annual surplus of about £4.000,000. It is stated that in Berlin the firemen wear water jackets, with a double skin, which they are able to fill with water from the hose. If the space between the two layers becomes overfilled, the water escapes through a valve at the top of the helmet. A destructive fire occurred in the Cripplegate district of London, England, on Friday. Two acres were burned over, and nearly 100 warehouses and other buildings were destroyed.

An Experience With Copperheads. Try KOLON A Ceylon Tea. The l’cnotanguishene Herald says :â€" “Last Wednesday morning Mr. Ken- nedy, of the S. D. A.camp on the north- ern channel, had an experience with snakes that he will not soon forget. Just as he was about to leave his tent snake sunning itself outside the tent door. It now became a question of who was going to have the right of Way. The snake coiled itself up ready to give battle, and Mr. Kennedy, armed with a and which are exposed to furious tor- rents and destructive avalanches.

He had no sooner killed this one than another appeared and took up the fight, but it, too, was soon killed. After the fangs had been removed the snakes were skinned. The largest one measur- ed six feet one inch, and the other five feet eleven inches. They are the larg- est snakes we have heard of being killed on the rocks this season. The ladies of the camp are having belts made of the skins, and will keep them as souvenirs of their camp on the shores of the Geor- gian Bay." A â€"‘.-. -0 u Coal Oil In Hastings. The Peter-borough Bt'UiClO says :â€" " For some time the steam drill and dynamite have been faithfully doing their work in deepening the channel nbOve the looks at Hastings. The open- ing of two sluiccways in the dam ne- cessitated the use of some of the blown out rocks for filling with the cement used in the bottom of the sluicewaya. To effect this, a quantity of rock at times is brought down to the locks, where it is broken up into small pieces before using. It. was while thus break- ing that small pockets were discovered containing a substance like oil, and on investigation was lound to smell very strongly of coal oil. From the number of those pockets, the rock seems to bo thickly saturated with them. While nearly every other section has had its mineral boom. may not it be an opening for capitalists? If the rock so near the surface. gives such rich evidence of coal oil. there is every prespect that in- vestigation would show a great wealth of the mineral, and it is probable that ex pcrts will he brought to make thorough tt‘SiS. . ._..--.._..- Blessing in Disguise. .-\ new phisc has been given to the rabbit snouro‘ in New Zsalaud by the uni-e v "11 has :li"11thLlLl1t} ex eri-; . . “ “D ‘ h“ “ p ' toquell some disturbances.

The object is to encourage saving. Many Belgium towns are making ready to follow the example of Mons. A Barrie merchant has been fined ten dollars and costs for selling cigar- ettes to a boy under twelve years of age. The boy was sent by an older person for the cigarettes, but this did not ex- cuse the offending merchant. A boy under eighteen, according to law, has to present a written order for cigarettes, and if a merchant gives them otherwise he is liable to the above fine. 3' Bernard Owens, aged 3. was acci- dentally killed yesterday afternoon by playmates. With some other boys he had organized companies representing Americans and Spaniards. They at- tacked each othcr in a sham battle. Young Owens fell. Picked up nsdead, he was buried in a quickly dug grave under several feet of earth. Subse. quently he was forgotten, and this morn- ing when the body was recovered he was really dead. Thursday night a young lad canted Wellington Snyder.oi Huntsfillejnmp. ed from an up-stairs window to the ground below, a distance of about fifteen feet, breaking one arm and receiving several severe wounds about the face and head. He was asleep at the time and imagined he was in swimming, and regarded his leap from the window as a dive, for previous to jumping he had stripped himself of his night clothes. Some doubt having been thrown on the question of the age of “ the Queen’s oldest subject,” Mr. Robert Taylor, late post-master of Scarva, the Rev.
