His Mission.— According to a ccntem- porary, saysthe Chicago Canadian Ameri- can: A wealthy Canadian is travell’ng about the country with a mission. That mission is to save shoe Jeather to the world. He insists that if everybody would cover three inches more at every step the saving in beets and shoes in America alone would be $27,000,000 per year Now the ques- tion is, how much would be saved if cer- fain cold gentlemen would refrain from ex-
young gentlemen who wear out a welcome in the front parler?
News Notes.
The Bank of England rate of discount has heen agvin reduced, this time to 3} per cent. This is higher than the usual rate for s une years back, but, takea with o' her known cir cumstances in the situation, it indicates an increasing ease in the money market,
The experiments in telepherage, or the transmission of parcels by electricity along overhead wires, has 80 far been confined to short distances ; but it istiow to be tried on a lage scale between Buenos Ayres and Montevideo, a distance of 186 miles. It is intended to despatch letter boxes between the two cities every two hours.
The Bishop of Bedford has startled Eng- land by a proposition that all clerks who do not earn a sufficient salary to keep « wife with respectability be prvhibited from marrying. The Bishop estimates that there are 150,000 junior clerks in London offices and warehouses whose average pay ‘¢ about seventeen shillings, or $3 50 a wee k and theusands more whe do not earn to ex- coed $5 T> a week. This will not maintain a family, and the deticits accumulate until crime and the poorhouse is the end,
