Across the Atlantic.

Those who are anxious to know the
distance, in nautical miles, between
some of the principal seaboard cities and
Liverpool, will find the following fig
ures upon the subject, from the New
York Sb,UEd Of Commerce. satisfactory.
The distance between New York and
Liverpool, says that paper, by the most
direct route, is as follows:
From New York to Sandy Hook about
20 miles; from Sandy Hook to Cape
Race, 900 miles; from Cape Race to
Cape Clear, ,7l3 miles il0m Cape Clear
to Queenstown, 60 miles; from Queens
town to Liverpool, 240 miles. Total.
3,033 miles BY the route adopted by the
steamers of the White Star line on the
outward trip hence to Liverpool, the dis
lance travelled is 8, l45 miles. From Liy'
erpool to New York, by their shortest
route, the same steamer makes the dis.
lance 3,O40. From Cape May to Liver.
pool, the distance, by direct route, Il
3.O74 miles, viz: From Cape May to Cape
Race, 1861 miles; from Cape Race tC
Liverpool Gas above,) 2,0l3. The dis
lance from Philadelphia to Cape May, IL
a straight line, is 90 miles, but 10y the
routes taken by the pilots 1t is given a,
rs miles, which, added to the above
makes the total distance from PhlIadel
phia to Liverpool 3,l49 miles. The
steamers Of the American line, on then
outward trip from Philadelphia, pursue
a route of about $500 miles in length
and on the return "trip make about 75
miles less. From Baltimore to Liver
pool, the most direct route gives dis
lance of 1922 viz; From Baltimore &c
Cape Charles, about l40 miles; Cape
Charles to Cape Race, ,ll9 miles Cape
Race to Liverpool 2,0l3 miles, As there
is no regular line running from Baltl'
more for Liverpool direct, we are unable
to give the exact length of the course
which they might pursue, but the same
conditions which cause the vessels Of
the New York and Philadelphia lines tc
run to the southwark of the direct
course, thereby lengthening the trip
would apply in case of the Baltimore
steamers, and the same relative differ
ence would ensue."

Do Not Exaggeratc.

There are persons whom you can al
ways believe because you know they
have the habit Of telling the truth. They
do not "color" q story or enlarge Il bit of
news in order to make it sound fine or
remarkable.
There are others whom you hardly
know whether to believe or not, because
they Stretch" things so. A tritling in
cident grows in size but not in quality
hv passing through their mouth. They
take u small fact, or slender bit Of news
and pad it with added words, and paint
it with highly-colored adjectives, until
it is largely unreal, and gives q false inn
impression. And one doesn't like to
listen to folk when SO much must be
allowed for "shrinkage."
Cultivate the habit of telling the truth
in little things as we'll rs in great things.
Pick your words wisely, and use only
such as rightly mean what you wish to
say. Never Stretch a story to make it
seer bigger or fmnier DO this, and
people VIII learn to trust and respect
YOU This will be better than having q
name for telling wonderful stories, or
making foolishly and falsely funny re-
marks. There are enough true funny
things happening in the world, and they
are most entertaining when told exactly
rs they came to pass.

ON THE RIGHT TRACK.
The Robbery of Mrs. Gibson Traced to the
Minneapolis Gang.

The Robbery of Mrs. Gibson Traced to the
Minneapolis Gang.
In referring to the Gibson robbery in yes
terday's issue of the GLOBE it was stated
that Capt. Clark and Detective Bresett had
visited Minneapolis Friday night in hopes of
bagging the perpetrators. As stated, suspi-
cion was strongly directed to trio of dis
reputable sporting characters, and, as the fact
proved, the keen scent of the st. Paul Of
| ticers was not far from hitting the bulls
| eye.
| The men wanted were George Lane, John
| Cain and Clarence P. Wells, but shutting
the beadle from afar the game was flushed.
with the exception of the latter, before Capt.
Clark and Bressett reached Minneapolis.
The trip, however, resulted in the arrest of
Wells and the connection of the other men
with the robbers is here established beyond
pera6venture. Friday night was consumed
| by the ST. Paul officers and the Minneapolis
| police IN securing the dives and fences of
that city.
About daylight yesterday morning Wells
was arrested by Capt. Clark and Mike Hoy IL
Campbell's bagnio. He was put under ar
rest and brought to this city and after con-
siderable amount of judicious pumping he
unburdened himself to an extent that
amounts to confession. He states that on
Thursday evening, the night of the robbery,
he was out driving in Minneapolis, when he
was approached by Lane and Cain, who asked
him for ride.
The party drove to this city and having
INDUCED in several drinks. the men request
ed Wells to drive to Mrs. Gibson's house OF
Robert street, and the latter states that hi
drove to Gibson's and remained with The
horses, the other men going upstairs. AT
ter short absence they came down stairs
following which, they returned to Minneap-
oils, and Wells claims that he had nothing
to do with the robbery other than above
stated. 1t has been ascertained that on then
return to Minneapolis, Lane and Cain
squandered their i'll gotten dust like water
