HAIL COLUMBIA, happy land! BREAKFAST BUDGET. White stockings have never gone out in Gerinany. Tabooed elsewhere, they have continued in favor with the averago Teuton frau. And in England the older ladies have continued to wear white cotton hosiery. But the white stocking is a horror, an offense unmitigated and not to be palliated. Let England decree or do what she pleases, she cannot win or drive us back to the ridiculous old heresy, the absurd abomination of white hosicry.-Chicago Record. Recent scientific discoveries have made possible the use of higher tomperatures than had before been reached, and the application of the electric current has given a degree of heat hitherto considered unattainable. In the opposite direction a French scientist, M.Pietet has been experimenting and has succeeded in producing the extraordinarily low temperature of 273 degrees centigrade (491 degrees Fahrenheit) below the freezing point, a degree of cold almost incalculable to our senses. The Queen of Denmark is, after Queen Victoria, the most remarkable of European Queens. Three of her children are either occupying thrones, or will do so in the near future. Though she is nearly 80, ehe still retains much of her youthful appearance and vigor. She was married at the age of 23. All her six children are living, and every one of them has proved a credit to her. Thoso old settlers of Chicago gave away abous 26 dozen gold medals at their picnic the other day to various persons whom they thought deserving of them, one going to "the girl working longest in the same family." This was bestowed upon Emma Schillinger, now forty-four years old, who has worked in the same family sinco September, 1859. The pretty glass carafe is no longer "the thing" of the dining table. Its place is taken by the pitcher that it at one time supersodod. One advantage of this rechange is evident; ice in one's goblet, with water poured over it from 8 carafe, is quite a different matter, as to result in refreshing coolness, from ice in a pitcher of water. Should the earth collido with another world of equal bulk, it is claimed that the heat gencrated would be sufficient to melt, boil and completely evaporizo a mass of ice fully 700 times the bulk of both the colliding worlds-in other words, an ice planet 150,000 miles in diamotor. The old cometery at Barcelona is in truth a "city of the dead." Streets upon streets of walls, with fivo stories of niches, into which the coffins are to be placed, give one indeed the idea of a doserted city. This fashion obtains all over Spain and in some parts of Italy. Two intoresting relice of Shakespeare were sold at Christic's in London recently for $785. They were a jug of cream colored oarthonware, much like n modern coflee pot in size and shape, and a Malacca cano in an excellent state of proservation. There is said to be 2,754 languages and dialects in uso throughout the world. The Nebraska National Bank at Bea. trice has suspended. The Bi-Metallic silver mine in Mon. tana will close down. Rio Grando do Sul robels are still winning victories. A Bombay newspaper says that if
