TELEGRAPH SYSTEM OF THE
WORLD,
We Have the Most Wire, but Italy Sends
the Most Messages, Proportiopately.

In 1887 the first practical telegraph was
worked in England, after crude attempt
made in 1885, on line of thirteen miles
beta Paddington and Drayton. In
1874 telegraph line was opened between
Washington and Baltimore. IL 1850 a
copper wire insulated in gutta percEa was
submerged between Dover and Calais and
the first submarine telegraph was laid by
the late 7. r. Champion.
There are now 942 submarine cables, ex-
elusive of the seven Atlantic cables, with
an aggregate of 112,700 nautical miles.
The overland telegraph is already world
wide institution, in which there is total
of $50. 900 miles of wire, enough of the
attenauated metal to go around the equa-
tional belt of the globe just thirty times.
the number of words Transmitted, the miles
travelled, and the cash changing hands
would tax the enumeration table.
The United States has 776500 miles of
wire, and in 1889 no less that Sc, 900, 900
messages were sent through the country
France has 900, 800 miles of wire, on which
in 1889 were transmitted 30,050,00 dis
patches. Grert Britain has 10000 miles
of metal line. and in 1889 sent 30, 900, 900
messages. Russia has spun ont JIG, 500
miles. ard III 1899 gave the operators TO-
$50, 7S0 messages to dispatch Australia
has strung no fewer than los, $50 miles
across its surface, and transmitted in one
year $4,000 900 messages. Italy las 49,
900 miles, and has made an annual record
of about 100000 electric messages.
Canada has 50. 800 miles of wire, and did
a business IN 1889 of 4,027,58l dispatches.
Egypt has 5 500 miles, and in connection
with India and England by submarine
cables of which last year 500, 205 COM
municationS were carried from one end of
the world to the other. China has $500
miles Of wire across Mongolia, and Japan
owns no less than l6, 800 miles, over which
5000, 900 messages were sent in one year.
New Zealand has strung itself with II ,375
miles of metal wire and dispatched 1876,
495 messages. Tasmania has $500 miles
of telegraph wires Persia claims, in
partnership with European wires, about
6, 124 miles South Africa has credit of
4,3l0 miles, and even st. Helena, the is
land prison of the great Corsican, has Is
miles of the universal wire cobwebbing its
rocks.
The telegraph systems of the world have
unroled the wire reel without stint, and if
we add to the 1858, 800 miles used for
telegraph purposes the wholesale appro-
priation by the telephone system the sum
total would be enormous.

with them carry the older plan of caring
for live stock in small lunches, and dis
placing what had been the intermediate
phase between savagry and civilization.
Hence the change is for the better, and all
the more so as it tends directly to do
away with the irregularities of supply in
the market which have done so much to
depress the selling prices of cattle in the

How OuantreH Died.

J. H. Baruhill, of Nevada, Mo-, who
served with Quantrell, puts at rest the
story that the man Henderson, who died
at Birmingham, Ala, few days ago,
was the Missouri guerrilla. Mr.. Barnhill
says Quantrell was mortally wounded
August 10, 1865, in la lot belonging to
a man named Wakefield on the lay lor-
vile and Bloomfield turnpike. about
fifteen miles from Louisville, Ky. He
died 1 few days later at Louisville, and
was buried in the Catholic cemetery at
that place.

Barnhill, Captain Terrill, with about
forty men surrounded us. We made a
bold dash to get out and in the fight
Quantrells horse was shot from under
him. He got up behind Dick Glasscock
who was soon afterwards shot from his
horse and killed, and in a few moments
later Quantrell was shot from the same

the Hackensmith boys was also killed
there The remainder of US got away.
When Captain Terljli walked up to
Quantrel the wounded man took off his
gold watch and handed il TO him. Guam

left for the night He was shot IN the
left side, the ball ranging up and coming
out at the shoulder. He said he was
mortaIly wounded. and told US to take
care of ourselves the best we could. The
next day Captain Terrill had Quantrell
moved to Louisville and placed in the
Sisters Hospital, where he died four or
FIVE days later.

TIE exposure by the New York Herald
Of thieving in the hands of the Johns
town relief fund is shocking, but not sur
prising. There has been a well-detined
suspicion abroad for some time that gang
of unprincipled people were Juggling with
the fund. The Herald charges that of the
81 900, 600 subscribed in cash for the i'm
mediate relief Of suffering survivors, near
81 100000 has been misappropriated IN
various ways. This money went in num-
erous directions. The state government,
it is said, appropriated Sl50,0OO; $3.50, 900
went to relieve ordinary poverty IN other
parts of the state; $4,000 was used to
build bridges a year and half after the
disaster Thousands were squandered
among contractors, uperintenderts over
seers and clerks. After detailing the
manner in which other sums were misap-
piled, the Herald says: The record is
one replete with evidence of mal-adminis-
traton, political corruption, robbery, and
jobbery well calculated to heap disgrace
upon the state of Pennsylvania and dis
courage a similar demonstration of public
generosity should an occasion for its dis
play ever again occur The persons who
handled the fund should lose no time In
replying to the sweeping series of accusa-
tions,

WORK OF WON EN-

New fields of labor are opening to wo-
men every day, and in no instance has
one of them, once opened, been closed.
The appointment of two women ticket
agents by one of the New York elevated
roads is almost certain to lCad in time to
the displacement of men now employed.
The change will be gradual, but it will be
none the less certain. In time perhaps,
women will fill nearly all the telegraph and
ticket offices of the country. One or two
of the largest hotels in the country have
for years employed woman us cashier,
and they have proven satisfactory to the
public The chance of loss by peculation
is much less with women than with men,
reason sufficient in itself to recommend
them. Ofall countries ON the globe more
respect is paid to women and more liberty
allowed them in America. Mrs, Kendall
paid most glorious tribute to American
men and customs when she told a news
paper reporter in London that she would
rather her daughter should go alone from
New York to San Francisco than walk
down Bond street in London unattended.
Employment is gived them everywhere be
cause it is cheaper labor, Germany en-
poyes 100000 women in industrial
pursuits; England, 100000; France,3,-
100000, and Austro-Hungary about the
same number, But 1t is in the more
profitable and pleasanter employment that
women are now making Roadway. 1t has
been but little while since two women
carried off the highest honors at two lead
ing universities. In the study and practice
of medicine they are becoming especially
noted. DR.. Julia Brink, a medical writer
of some note, is the first woman TO be
honored by receiving from the British
Medical Association of London ego to
defray the expense of publishing a phySi-
illogical treatise on the nutrition of the
muscles. In all the fields ofaction hereto
