A Torpedo Launch.

There are many interesting phases OF
life at Newport (writes correspond
ent) upon which one may hope to find
time to touch, but the diversified chap
pening things of this week rightly
claim present attention. Monday dawn
ing clear and bright after hot Sunday,
showed the New York yacht squadron
in the harbor, and promised a most in
teresting exhibition in the afternoon at
the torpedo station, to which Captain
Selfridge Gan old Boston boy had bid
den n number of his friends, including,
besides large delegation from the
aforesaid yachts, Chief Justice Waite
and MIR. Justice Blatchford, of the SUI
preme court, ex-Gov. Morgan, and n
number of others. After salute of
seventeen torpedoes had been success
fully fired, we had an opportunity of
witnessing the most wonderful perform
ances of the torpedo launch invented by
Lieut.. Mclean, U. S. N, of which it
seems to me that far too little notice
has thus far been taken. Suppose we
wish to attack certain port, and the
entrance to its harbor is thickly sown
with the most deadly of modern fixed
torpedoes. Naturally we wish to destroy
those torpedoes, or at least break all
the connections with them. Well, along
side vessel mile away from the OBJ
jective point lies Misunderstanding lit
tie launch without soul on board; and
on the deck of said vessel stand two ma
val officers, one of them with his fingers
on the keys of just such little box as
the late Jim Fisk used to call the heads
of the departments of the Erie railway.
$50 ahead" says the officer, looking
through his glass. His comrade de-
presses the index finger, and the launch
starts straight to its destination. "Star-
board a little" Down goes his forefn-
ger "Starboard it is" and, like a
thing of life, the boat turns. STEADY!
Port little!' and again it obeys. This
is not the Alaska, but it is making good
time, and coming up to the line of tor
pedoes. OF course the enemy is firing
at it, but it is small object, and there
are no lives to risk. stop her. Let
go! The finger IS again on the button,
and then there is one more command.
"Fire!" There is tremendous explo-
sion, volume of water rises into the
air and-the road is open, and the adj
miral can make the signal for the adj
vance Something like this happened
on Monday, on reduced scale. There
was no enemy to speak of, and every
body was so friendly that none could be
improvised, but do not see why this
wonderful launch should not do in real
war just as well as it did at Goat Island
Where the necromancy comes in is the
handling of all the machinery by SIN

A Cnta Trick.

Orphcus with his lutte made trees and
other objects dance at his pleasure, and
similar method of overcoming mate
rial difficulties seems to prevail in lodg-
ing houses in Queenstown. The diff
Guilty OF being in two places at once,
like bird, has been remarked on by an
Irish mctaphysician. Some other think
ers of the same race have been no less
struck with the inability of two bodies
to occupy the same space at the same
moment. At Queenstown, whence emil
grants start, the place which many
bodies desire to occupy at the same given
moment is bed in Il lodging-house.
The difficulty has been overcome with
singular ingenuity. In report on over
crowding of emigrants, published by the
board of trade, the method of creating a
vacuum in bed is explained. AS soon as
the rooms in clearinghouse are full,
and in that hour when sleep is sweetest
to men, a fiddler is introduced. The
lads (and, we presume, lasses) at once
wake up and gallanty take the flure,"
while a new set of emigrants jump into
the vacated beds and sleep till the rev.
oilers are danced down. Then the new
tenants of the bed are evicted, and they
take the ilurc" in their turn; the COM
pany thus alternately sleeping and dane
ing. This plan necessarily causes over
crowding. and would probably prevent
theaicrvous from sleeping, and has 9TH
er patent Inconvenience. But there is
something festal about the method after
all.-London Duty NeDs.

Coolies Acting like Sheep.

eff you have the patience to watch
them, you will be amused, and perhaps
astonished, to see how like sheep these
coolies are," Deputy Custom Inspector
Brown said to reporter, as the coolies
from the Devonshire wore being landed
and searched. The sheepish character
istic remarked by the official was the
blind, stupid persistence of each coolie
in doing exactly as the one before him
was doing. At one time it was desirable
to have n part of the Cbinamen leave
the sea-wan shed through another en-
trance than that through which the first
landed were going. It would not only
have only greatly assisted the officers,
but would also have been a vast conve-
nience to the Cinnamon themselves, as
it would have avoided the snarl and
crowd and confusion resulting from
packing all the Cinnamon into express
wagons near one of the shed entrances.
Accordingly, the Custom House officers
attempted to divert part of the living
stream pouring in tumultuous and noisy
haste over the steamers side on to the
wharf to another part of the shed. 1t
was useless. The aid of Interpreters
was invoked. The coolies were plainly
told in their own language to go in a
certain direction. Still useless. Those
crowding on the wharf went in the same
direction they saw the ones preceding
them go. and nothing could prevent
them. They were pushed, argued with,
even struck by the exasperated whites,
but it was as if sheep-herder had en-
deavored to reason with his scurrying,
witless, panic-stricken fock.-,San

The New Comet.

The new comet continues to give
promise of brilliant future. In
three or four weeks 1t will probably be
conspicuous in the northern sky, but at
present 1t cannot be discerned
by the naked eye. Even in the
telescope it is faint object, but the
observer quickly perceives that, under
the mighty pull of the sun, it is
quickening its flight every hour and
rapidly growing larger. In June it will
dart into its perihelion, sweep around
the sun, and, it is hoped, burst into a
blaze of cometary glory. The direction
of its fight is such that, if it does fling
out long tail, we shall have fine view
of it. The comet will at no time come
near the earth, but it will be one of the
most remarkable ever known for its
close approach to the sun. The figures
of the calculators vary, but all agree
that the comet will go very close to the
sun, and some express doubt whether it
may not strike the solar orb. In that
event we may behold such a spectacle
as man never witnessed before, or, more
likely, we shall know nothing of the
catastrophe to the comet except what
the astronomers tell us. At any rate,
we have no fear Of the consequences.

A Bashful Mans Dilemma.

A horse-car is bad place for nervous
or bashful man. Such one was noticed
lately, and he was very polite man,
too, which somehow seemed to aggravate
the case, although the reason why it
should do so is not quite evident. He
was little near-sighted also, and when
an aged Irishwoman got out and
dropped a particularly disgraceful hand
kerchief on the floor the bashful man
did not perceive the article for a moment,
although the rest of the passengers did,
and two who were on the platform
bawled out anavailingly after the un-
conscious owner. But when the modest
man did see it-being also, as above
recited, polite and gentlemanly per-
son-he picked it up at once, and
smilingly offered it to the young lady
who sat opposite. The look she gave
him made his spinal marrow feel chilly,
and when he passed it in turn to all the
other women in the car, and got only
shifts and "Well, I declare p and
What an idea p from each in turn,

and stuffed the rag into his pocket, and
then attempted the feat of reading his
paper upside down. And when he left
the car the people who looked after
him saw him pause at an ash barrel on
the sidewalk, drop something into it,
