WHO INVENTED FRICTION MATCHES,

From the earliest ages the priority of yaIua
Bile inventions has been claimed by different
nations and different men. Seven cities claimed
to be the birthplace of Homer; Faust and Gut
tenberg contest the invention of printing; Tai
bot and Daguerre dispute the Origination of
fhe dSguerreOtype; Fulton and Fitch are rivals
for thc credit of having made the first practical
aPPlIcatiIn of steam to navigation; the progress
Of railroads has been 80 gradual that it's origin
l. shrouded IN mystery; Morse is denied the
honor ot having originated the telegraph; Nor
ton ard Jackson both demand priority in the
invention OF ether and chlOroform; Gov. Price
Oi Ne" Jersey and wOuld-be Governor Uilman
Ot New York found rival claimants for their
cHtzenshlp AZ the moment 0f their aspiration

Boarding European Steamers off Cape ace.

The idea of anticipating the news by Euro
pean steamers, by intercepting them off Cape
Race, Newfoundland, was started number of
years since by the New York press. but has
never been carried out with much effect, until
within short time, though occasionally a
steamer news was received in this way.
Cape Race, by sea. is between ten and eleven
hundred miles distant from New York. one
thlrd OF the voyage across the Atlantic. Mr.
Farrell, OF New York, a bOatman of great ex-
perience, formerly employed in the same busi-
ness as now, in connection with the Sandy
Hook Telegraph, has taken charge of the news
yacht at Cape Race. He succeeded last week
IN obtaining the news from four steamers viz /:
The Arago, The FigO, the Canada, and the City
OF Baltimore. The plan of operations is briefly
as follows:
The European steamer runs from England or
Ireland across the Atlantic to within n mile or
two of Cape Race light, generally making the
trip IN seven or eight days. The newsmen are
on the alert cruising near the spot, and the
steamer usually throws up a signal or fires a
gun, to attract attention. The news dispatch
Is prepared by an agent in England, and placed
In buoyant tin case. on which is aft xed flag
so that it can be seen for some distance in the
water. The bOatmen hasten to the SPOT OBJ
tain the news, and start for st. Johns. New
foundland, the nearest telegraph station. from
whence il is Immediately transmitted to all
parts of the United States and Canada.
The news before reaching Boston traverses a
distance by telegraph Of over Ii thousand miles
First over the Newfoundland line, which is
constructed across a country that may be truly
called savage wilderness, with hills of granite
deep swamps, and almOst impenetrable woods
Crossing by submarine telegraph from New
FOundland to the American Continent the
despatch passes over yortiOn of the Nova Sco-
tia line, then over the New Brunswick line to
the borders Of Maine at Calais, where the
American line commences, by which it is trans
mitted To its destination. Occasionally even
now steamer is missed, as for instance the
Nanderbuilt, which, from its rapid passage
across the Atlantic must have reached Cane
Race in six days from SOuthampton-Bosto

extraordinary Story about the Dauphin Of
France Louis AVu.-Did He Die i'm
the Temple or Not
IFroIn the London Herald Mav171

[FrOIn the London Herald Nav III
There are stranger things than fiction. even
IN modern tunes, but people will hardly be pre-
pared for the startling announcement which
was asserted mt coroner : inquiry held yester-
day, before Mr. Wakley, Coroner for West Mid
deseN, that the Dauphin of France, the unfCr-
tunate son of Louis AVI., did not. us history
states, die ION the 9th of June. 1895 in the
prison of the Temple, after a miserable con-
hnement Of three years, but that he expired liz
a London street cab but a few days since and
that the deceased upon whom the inquest was
being held was no other than that Dauphin
Louis XVII of France. Such was the marvel
lous story made public yesterday at an inquest
held at the Lord WellingtOn, University street
upon person who, under the name of Angus
tus Menes, has for some years past resided with
his family at 30 University street, Tottenham
court road. where he followed the avocation Of
aprOfessOr of music. 1t appeared that the
deceased, who was in his seventy fifth year.
was suddenly taken i'll when near his own res.
dence, and as medical assistance could not be
Immediately procured he was conveyed without
delay In a cab to the University College Hos
pitai close by, but he was dead before arriving
at that institution, the cause of the death being
as the post mOrtem examination distinctly
proved, disease of the heart. The jury returned
verdict accordingly, and so far the judicial
part of the proceedings terminated but upon
Ihqoiii iinS iui'h mo 'he peculiar STATEMENTS
that had been made by the deceased's family
and the rumOrs that have got about in the
neighbOrhOOd, causing no little excitement. il
seems that the deceased's conversation for the
last thirty years. when he first made his family
acquainted with the strange story, has been to
the effect that he was the Dauphn who was
supposed to have died in the Temple. and while
the deceased bore a strong likeness in the face
to the Bourbon family of France, his family
further asserts that he had certain marks ON hi
person which the hapless infant King had lie
had always himself desired to keep the matter
secret from the world, but his family have now
expressed their determination 70 publish the
whole facts connected with his marvellous his
