AN UNFORTUNATE ERROR.
OFFICERS

An unfortunate misconception of fact occurred
II few days ago which did injustice TO Commander
James d. Graham. on duty in the Yard. 1t was
published in Washington paper that Commander
Graham and Commander Richard i. Leary were
both applicants for the command Of the Dale,
which is 10 be the receiving ship at Baltimore
As soon as the Constitution Is taken 10 Washing
ton but that Commodore IPary wOuh probably
get il as a recognition Of his services at Samoa.
The fact is that Commander Graham did apply
for the Dale, but as soon as he heard that Com
mander Leary an applicant he at once wrote
10 Secretary Tracy and Withdrew his application,
ana at the time that the story published
he was not candidate for the honor When
asked about the matter Commodore Graham re-
luctantly replied Yes, it's the fact thai / was
an applicant for the Dale, and withdrew in Leary 5
favor. Leary deserves il more than | do or more
than any other officer Of his grade. There is "A
that. has not been published For instance, during
the first trouble between Mataafa and IamaSese
when the German cruiser got under way and
went down 10 she'll that village below Apia
don't recall the name Just now. Leary got the
Adams ready and followed him. Only a little
while after the German vessel dropped anchor oil
the village the Adams did the same thing The
German vessel was cleared for action and made
ready 10 shell the town, and Lcdry got his vessel
ready to stop II. Then hc sent word to the
German commander: i hope that nothing win
occur TO disturb the friendly relations existing
between the Imperial Majesty and the United
States Government but YOU must not carry out
you The result was that not gun was fired
from the German vessel and soon afterward- she
returned 10 Apia. and the Adams followed This
was not only good diplomacy, but ~ WAS nerve
too With brother officer hike that do Won
think that would be competitor against him ?"

Reference has already been made once or twice in
this column to the treatment Brooklyn passengers
receive at the hands Of the Long Island Railroad
which compcls them all TO change cars at Jamaica
But according 10 one passenger changing at Jamaica
Is not the worst feature of all This is the way he
states his grievance: Il started for Far Rockaway
the other afternoon, expecting to 20 IN the way
but when the train reached Woodhaven Junction. what
was my astonjshment 10 hear the guard announce
that passengers for Far Rookaway etc. must change
cars. got out along with a dozen others and we
climbed a stairway in the hot sun, and then stood
open platform for something between five and
ten minutes, when a train along from Long
Island City and took us aboard don't know whether
1t would be worse TO stand that platform Ia A
brOiiing I'm heavy storm. Either IS bad
enOueh1 and each IS Without excuse. Then on my
return 10 Brooklyn ! happened to be brought the
same way, and again had 10 change cars at Wood
haven Junction But nstead OF boarding a fast train
into Bwohlyn (makinR stops only at East New York
and Bedford, lc only train available a rapid
transit train. which stops every two three bloc Ks
was disguised with this arran gemont that AS soon
a. reached East New York left the RAPID transit train
and took train on the Kings County Elevated road
! hope you VIII keep pitching into the Long Island
Railroad people until they consent ID give Biooklyn
decent and adequate service

Died:

In Shreveport La, on February s3rd, Mrs.
LAURA w. ONEAL, aged 80 years.
The relentless hand of death has again come
with his sickle and piueked from our midst
one of our sweetest flowers. Our dear friend
has been called to that beautiful land beyond
the skies
"The feeble pulse hath throbbed its last,
The aching head is laid at rest,
Another from our ranks hath passed,
The dearest and the loveliest."
Truly is it said 1.-The good die first" She was
too pure for earth-the Lord had need OF her,
and the angels came and took her.
That sweet voice, ever ready to cheer and
comfort others, is hushed; that gentle hand,
ever ready to administer to the wants of others,
is still in death; that bright and cheerful smile
will never again make glad our hearts.
Social virtue was one Of her foremost traits,
and she posse sed the faculty OF casting q
glow of happiness among the circle OF friends
who sought her society. Her presence was
like ray of sunlight in our midst, making
bright and cheerful all around her. And time
will be slow in lifting the cloud of sorrow from
our hearts, caused by the death of one so true
andnoble. May We profit by the example she
has given us, and may we initiate her noble
qualities of head and heart May =" He who
tempers the wind to the shorn lamb" send
peace and comfort TO the bleeding, broken
hearts of the sorrowing loved ones, aud may
the pure and spOtless soul of her whom they
loved be beacon light in the doorway of
Heaven, reckoning them OF to that vale OF
songs and flowers, where 1.-The wicked cease
| from troubling and the weary are at rest"
Farewell, dear friend, until We meet around
| the great white throne of God, where we will
together sing praises of joy and gladness for
evermore. L. B. A.

GROWTH OF CITIES.

An Indication Of the Present Population
of LeadIng American Municipalities
Presidential elections always call out
a full vote, and the vote cast in the
leading cities of the country recently
can be taken as an indication of the
relative growth of these cities. New
York, with its 27o, 1874 votes for Presi-
dent, leads all her sister cities, with
Philadelphia and her 205, TAT votes a
good second These figures indicate a
population of over one and a half mill
ion people for New York, and show
that Philadelphia has passed the /, 000.-
900 mark. Brooklyn and Chicago are
pressing this city, but they are nearly
a quarter of million behind US. Bos-
ton shows the smallest percentage of
increase of any of the cities. The fol-
lowing table gives the total number of
votes cast in each of eleven leading
cities for President at the recent cleo
ton:

An Ingenious Machine which Does AWAY
with Movable Types.

An Ingenious Machine which Does Away
with Movable Types.
There is on exhibition in New York
an invention which proposes to do
away with movable types in printing.
There is but one type for each letter,
figure or punctuation mark, and all
are cut on one cylindrical metallic
shell. The mechanism is operated by
a system of keys similar to that en-
ployed in ordinary writing machines.
The printing does not begin until the
keys for about fifty letters have been
touched. when a character at time is
linked Immediately before its i'm
preston on the paper. A unique
feature of the invention is that the
spacing out and shortening of the
lines, known in printers parlance as
justification, Is automatically ac-
complished by the machine independ-
ent of any mental effort of the opera
tor, and when the work is done each
line is found to end even with the
others. To ''justify" a line in using
movable types the compositor must.
when it Is nearly completed, either
put in thicker or thinner spaces.
The reproduction of the work done
on the machine now on exhibition is
accomplished by TYPOGRAPHY. The
work of composing on the machine is
done in less than fourth of the time
required when movable types are used,
tho ordinary speed being from twenty
to twenty-five words minute. The
cost of transferring to the stone is
said to be much less than that of max
ing up forms for the press in ordinary
printing. and as movable types are not
used there is no distribution.
The machine has also been tested
with reference to its use for making
matrices for the casting of stereotype
plates, and the result shows that, with
certain notifications which are now
being made, it may DO successfully en-
| ployed fors that purpose. - Chicago
