A WODERFUL BANK.
The Origin and Career of the Most Pro
fitable Bank in Now York.
A Now York letter says: "The
death of John Jones, president of
the Chemical Bank, which occurred
on New Year's Day, recalls the
early days of that remarkable in
stitution. The Chemical Bank, the
only one in the United States that did
not suspend specie payment during
the war, came into existence under
somowhat peculiar circumstances.
The charter under which it was
organized was granted, not for a
bank, but for a chemical manufac
turing company. The intention of
the parties who obtained the char-.
ter was to start a bank, but owing
to certain features of the banking
law of the period (somewhere about
fifty years ago) they could accom
plish their purpose only by organiz
ing for business purposes. The
charter was obtained, the Chemical
Manufacturing Company started,
and in a short time the Chemical
Bank was organized and doing
business. The Manhattan Bank,
another old institution, located in
Wall street, was started in the samo
way, the charter being issued in the
name of the Manhattan Water
Company. The Chemical Bank was
a favorite among old merchants
from the first, and the chara:iter of
the men connected with i, soon,
gave it a high position. When the
war broke out and suspension be
came the rule, the Chemical gave
notice that it would continue to
redeem its notes ir gold, as usual.
As the outstanding notes woro but
a trifle, the redemption was a simple
and easy matter, but the more fact
that the Chemical Bank continued
to pay gold, in the face of universal
suspension, made it famous
throughout the country. So pros
. perous did the bank become that
with a capital of $300,000, it now
has a surplus of over $1,000,000, and
for several years past its stock has
been quoted at $1,600 per share, or
fifteen hundred per cent. above the
original cost. Mr. Jones had been
president thirty,three years, and
was connected with tihe family of its
founder, John Mason. He was a
bachelor, and had been a commnuni
cant in St. Paul's Episcopal church
all his life."
The Russian Journal of A rtillery
states that an Austrian manufac
turer has recently arrived at St.
Petersburg, and has offered to sell
to the Russian government tile
secret of the fabrication of a new
explosive; This substance, which
is called "heracline," is, the invent
or assorts, far sup)erior to either
ordinary gunpowder or dynamite for
blasting and mining purposes, and,
when prepared in a special manner,
may also he employed with advan
tage as a bursting charge for shells.
Used as a charge for mines, the new
explosive is said to act with a much
greater energy, and p)roduce a much
greater effect, than the same quan-.
tity of powder ; and, as both its
density and cost of manufacture are
considerably less, a saving of from
40 to 45 per cent. will be effected by
employing it. It is also the least
dangerous of any explosive, as it
cannot be exploded either by a blow
or by friction, but only by bringing
a flame into contact with it in a
closed vessel.
REFUSED TO JoiN FoRoEs.-Satur..
day night, about midnight, a widow
woman living on Montcalm street
heard a man fall on the walk in
front of her house, and raising a
chamber window she called out to
th1eprostrate form to know if he
"Noz much-thaz 'er way I allus
come down in 'or winter sozun I"
replied a thick voice.
"If you don't move on TIll call a
policeman and have him take yeu
to the station," she continued.

AN UNFAIR RACE.-On the ice at
Winnipeg the other day a two- milo
race took place betwon a toam of
ponios and a toam of dogs, owners
driving. Tho dogs won easily,
thanks in a groat measure to the
fact that whonovor tho horsos tried
to pass theml they sprung at tho
horses' heads and forced them to
break.
