Great Britain is likely to be a power- the tul competitor of the United States in m_ the world's coal market for some time. ' According to an English expert the supply of coal yet remaining to be mined in the United Kingdom amounts pris- to 80.684.000.000 tens. which, at the kiss present rate of mining, would last 370 years. The same authority gives the idn’t total output of the world in 41900 as 767,636,204 tons. of which Great Brit. ain produced 229. 000. 000 tons, or so pet cent. and the United States 245,000,000 'flu tons leaving a balance of about 35 pet cent for the rest of the world. His name was Henri Thlbanlt. For years prior to his death he had eked out a precarious subsiStence as a trans- lator and teacher of languages, yet thir- teen years previously he had been the prime mover in the great copper corner, the collapse of which shook to its foun. datlons the French financial world. The result was quickly apparent. On July 1, 1887, “B. C. BBB”. (best Chile bars) were selling at $200 a ton. By June 1 they had risen to $260, and the rise continued steadily until the middle of December, 1888, when the unheard of price of a fraction over $3500 a ton was being asked and obtained. Thibault’s idea was to secretly buy up the world’s available supply of cop- per and wait for the inevitable rise. And he came near to succeeding. ‘ From his office in Paris he controlled, through his agents, the markets of Lon- don, Berlin and Vienna, and in all of them he purchased every pound of cop- per that was offered. As soon as he ceased buying he had. of course. to commence selling. and this hastened and accentuated the inevita- ble end. By March. 1 the price had dropped to less than it was when Th1- bault commenced operations. Then came the collapse. Thlbault had sunk all his own money in the venture, all he could borrow, all he could beg, and still from all sorts of odd and un- expected corners of the world copper came pouring in. Altogether the gigantic gamble cost him $50,,,000000 of which sum fully one~half was lost between noon and Ive minutes past on Feb. w, 1889. when the bottom dropped out at his corner. Al to Laying Rails. Inglilh railway experts seem deter- mined to do everything in the most complicated way, as Americans prefer the si'mplost. For instance, Yankees lay railroad rails- directly upon the sleeper. The English lay bull ‘x ad rails upon metal chairs which in turn rest upon the slvepors. The result is to multiply the noise. which would be almost intol- erable it English engines and car. were not such z-auall and light affairs. Greatest Loner on Record Die. In . Garret In I London 81... In a grimy garret in a London slum there died the other day the only man who ever succeeded in losing 825,000.‘ 000 in five minutes’ time. The London Transport, :1 technical authority, says, “It is generally admit- ted that the American system of laying flat bottom rails direct on sleepers makes a more elastic road than the English (hair and key system. while the stumtlmms of running adds com- fort in traveling and considerably re- dams the wear and tear to rolling SL1) UK. N The Kite an an Air Sill). . I have had the feeling that a properly constructed flying machine should be capable of being flown as a kite and, conversely, that a properly constructed kite should be capable of use as a fly- ing machine when driven by its own propellers. I am not so sure, however, of the truth of the former proposition as I am of the latter. Given a kite so shaped as to be suit- able for the body of a flying machine and so efficient that it will fly well in a good breeze (say twenty miles an hour) when loaded with a weight equivalent to that of a man and engine, then it seems to me \that this same kite, pro- vided with an actual engine and man in place of the load and driven by its own propellers at the rate of twenty miles an hour, should be sustained in oalm air as a flying machine. So far as the pressure of the air is concerned, it is surely immaterial whether the air moves against the kite or the kite against the ahaâ€"Alexander Graham Bell in National Geographic Magazine. On that occasion it was one of a magnificent Cashmere breed. then kept in Windsor park. a herd of which was sent to Queen Victoria by the then shah. This goat. as may be expected, was highly prized and marched at the head or the regiment during a cam- paign in Bulgaria. afterward accom- panying the fusileers to the Crimea. Shortly after the battle of Alma the goat began to show symptoms of ill- ness. and despite every care it finally succumbed to the inclement weather on Dec. 20, 1854. before Sevastopol.

Mrs. Annie Armstrong, of Mount Forest. appeared before His Honor Judge Chadwick, this morning, and pleaded guilty. to four charges of posting and transmitting through the post, a number of obscene and scurril- ous letters to persons living in Mt.

If the Crown had pressed the case against her she would have been liable to receive a long term of imprisonment.â€"Satur- day’s Guelph Herald. Tuesday morning there was to be seen.a group of men reclining listless- ly on the dock on the eastern side of the river. Some were sitting with legs hanging over the dock. gazing dreamily into the waters of the river; others were resting their weary limbs by stretching themselves out on the coal dock and gazing at the beautiful summer sky. No member of the happy group appeared as if he wished ever to labor and toil. again in this world again. These men make the tour of the docks searching for em- ployment but would be very much disappointed if an opportunity of earning their living presented itself. They are the organizers of the new society known as the Sons of Ease. Before being eligible for membership in this mutually edifying organiza- tion one must produce a document certifying that he never has engaged. nor never will under any circum- stances participate in that wearisome process known as work.â€"O. 8.

On Saturday afternoon. as the pas- senger train left the Goldwater Sta- tion and rounded the curve towards Midland the engineer saw a child sitting on the end of a tie a short distance ahead. Every efiort was made to stop the train. but the dis- tance being short and on a down grade the chance was not very good. Fireman C. H. Brooks took in the situation and saw there must be no effort spared to ensue the child’s safety. He left the cab and in a moment was down on the pilot The child stuck to its seat on the tie. The train had nearly stopped when it reached the child, and Brooks shoved it off with his foot, then jumped otf and picked it up. The child is the Mo year old son of Clement Courier, of Goldwater.

At present fruit is frequently forwarded by express from Toronto to Winnipeg via Smith’s Falls and even via Montreal, to con- nect with the through trains. The result is that the fruit is on the road from 18 to 24 hours longer than it would be if sent via North Bay. and consequently it does not arrive in Winnipeg in the best condition. If the carrying companies can be con- vinced that Ontario growers are preo pared to maintain a steady shipment of fruit in modern packages. and not merely to send West the fruit that the East does not want. put up in all sorts of antiquated shapes, there is little :donbt that adequate service will be provided. at a rate which will compare favorably with that now en- joyed by Oregon and California ship- Yours very truly.
