They say a man named Carroll was in a row

latter passed between Breezy Point and
Spirit Island. Carroll, comparatively safe
in WayZata bay, was watching the Minnie
Cook and heard a shrill scream go up from
her just as she was struck by the blast which
capsized her. A copy of the New York

Capt. c. NJ. Hardenburg yesterday, who

steerers in the West are now domieiled in

speaker was an eX-member of the cloth, and
the GLOBE reporter, who happened to over
hear the careless remark, asked as TO the
wherefore. Il don't care TO give the fellows
away, but it is true, nevertheless. They

Statesmen and Dress Coats.

Washington Gossip in New York Graphic.
Though Secretaries Bayard, Endicott, Whit
ney and Lamar each spent Tuesday evening in
the Blue Parlor, where the President was re-
ceiving, Attorney general Garland, who is re-
ported to have said that he will take no part in
the social life of the administration, was again
conspicuous by his absence. Attorney general
Garlands alleged aversion to a dress coat recalls
the fact that President Garfield had a member
of his Cabinet with the same peculiarity-Secre-
tary Kirkwood, of Iowa. He had served several
years in the Senate, and then was nearly a wear
in tho Cabinet, and never once wore a dress suit
not even when he attended a state dinner while
still Secretary of the Interior, given by Presi-
dent Arthur at the White House. He had said
when he first cam to Washington that he would
fore he went into the Cabinet no would not
those from the Executive Mansion, which are
did so until that to which allusion is made
above was given. When Mr.. James Speed. of
Louisville. was Attorney general in President
Lincolns Cabinet, he at first declined to wear a
dress suit or gloves, though both were then
fashionable, on any OCCASION, and for the first
state dinner he attended at the White House he
did not change his clothes after leaving his
Office, had a stain of tobacco on his shirt front,
all iron chain to his watch and no gloves. In
speaking of it immediately afterwards to the
writer, he said of himself and brother Joshua,
who was also at the dinner. 1.-THE two Speeds
were the only men who had on no gloves" and
was evidently very proud of it. After that Sec
rotary Seward persuaded Announcement
Speed to buy a dress suit and gloves, and he
always wore them when occasion required.

A Competition Between Babies.

V van @'H
There are two baby boys in this State who
have just unconsciously entered upon a novel
competition to last more than twenty years.
Two fond fathers, one of them in business in
this city, each thinks his own boy baby the most
promising, physically. Hence each parent has
deposited in the bank, at interest, 500, the
whole sum, when the babies have attained their
majority, to go to the one weighing the most.
How enviously one will eye the increasing corpu-
lency Of the other. What an awful incentive
will be held out to each to seek opportunities for
mixing ''anti-fat" with the others food, or
adulterate his fluid nourishment with acid. Their
days will be brimful of mental torture, and their
very anxiety will tend to decrease the longed for
obesity. Aud when the e~ventful day arrives
each will demand that the weight Of the other be
taken in puris naturalibus, to avert the suspicion
of leaden jackets or fiat irons in the pockets.
And it is not unlikely that each will insist upon
being present at the matutinal meal of the other
to guard against the possibility of quicksilver
pills or pig lead enemeta. But when the scales
shall have told the decisive story, each will ex-
perience a relief of treble the value Of the none
tary bequest

Telephone Statistics.

Philadelphia Bulletin.
The rapid adoption of the telephone in Europe
is worthy of mention In Italy there were
3, 10 subscribers in ten cities in 1883, and 1901
in l884-an increase of 30 per cent. In France
eleven cities had 4, 739 subscribers in 1883, and
$685. in l8S4-a gain of Is per cent. Five Bel,
gian cities had 2,051 subscribers in 1888, and
2, 443 in 1884-an increase of 10 per cent. In
Great Britain London had $3.50 subscribers in
1884, and only 2, $50 in 1883-an increase of 25
per cent. In the towns of Liverpool, Man
chester, Southport and Blackburn there were
2,734 subscribers in l884-an increase of II per
cent. The development of the use of the tele-
phone in Sweden surpasses that elsewhere.
Five cities in 1882 had / ,554 subscribers; in 1884
ffty-one cities had I, 1877 subscribers gain, in
two years. of 398 per cent. Holland last year
had 2, $50 subscribers; Switzerland. 3,77l; Rus
STA, 2, 230. The statistics for other countries
have not been published. but in June, 1884,
Berlin had l,500 subscribers; Vienna, 70S last
December; Copenhagen, SIG in June, 1883;
Lisbon, 343 at the close of 1882. These figures
suffice to show that in all parts Of the continent
Europeans have not been slow to recognize the
practical usefulness of the telephone, and have
lost no time in adopting it in their business.

added that when Bacon provided this cipher he

Origin of the Sunday Newspaper.

Now for a word about the origin of the Sun

said to a London newsboy one Saturday after.

morrow's Times '.if you will cry out The Sun.
day Times I will take one" The boy said, A
right. Here's yer to-morrow's Sunday times. "
The paper was then printed during the week
and sold on Saturday evening. And to-day only
two of the great London dailies publish a Sun
day edition. The New York Herald was the firstiof
the American dailies to publish a Sunday edition.
This was in l841: but during the war, one by
one, the great dailies of New York and New
England came in. In the case of the State
which published the most papers in 1882, the
average circulation Of the Sunday edition was GO
per cent. of the circulation of the daily editions,
and an investigation proved that in four Massa-
chusetts towns the Sunday paper went into
every other house.
