creates, at the axis. which is rarely in
the middle of the current. OFF Havana
IL is south of the middle, or nearest the
Cuban shore, but off Foway rocks and
Cape Florida and from thence 10 Cape
Hatteras il Is west OF the middle. The
very latest Investigations prove that the
position OF the axis average con-
ditions is as follows: East of Contoy
island, Yucatan, thirty-five miles; north
OF Havana, twenty-five miles; east OF
Foway Rocks. Florida. eleven miles;
east of Jupiter lighthouse, Florida, nine
teen miles; southeast OF Cape Hatteras
lighthouse, North Carolina, about thir-
ty-eight miles. From Jupiter lighthouse
TO Cape Hatteras. about sixteen miles
outside the curve of one hundre faith
oms. disregarding the irregularities Of
the curve.
The positions here given are the
points at which a strong current Is sure
~ TO be found. Two or three days after
the lowest d~eclination of the moon II
is considerably tronger h at any
other part of the stream. AS the moon
approaches its greatest declination,
north or south. the current at the axis
lessons in velocity n at the same time
the current increases in speed on either
side of it. After low d~eclination OF the
moon the strength OF the current on Fo-
way Rocks is eleven miles off shore.
but after high declination a vessel VIII
find almost the same velocity at six or
seven miles distant Here is a daily
variation in velocity amounting at times
TO over two knots.
A vessel crossing between Key West
and Havana under average conditions
will make a course good from port to
port by allowing one and one-tenth
knots per our of passage. Between
Gun Cay and Foway Rocks two n a
quarter knots per hour is the average.
Vessels bound from ports to the north
ward OF HatteraS to ports in the straits
of Florida or in the Gulf of Mexico will
save time by crossing the stream at the
cape. An allowance OF one n a half
knots per hour of passage Is a fair
average to make a course good, remem-
boring that the stream is about forty
miles in width from the one-hundred-
fathom curve. n that its outer edge
is about parallel with the curve at this
point.
The above embodies the result of the
latest researches in the action Of the
gulf stream.

Mary and Her Little Lamb.
Harper's Young Peopie.

Many of our readers are familiar with the
story OF the fondness of Mary for her lit
tie lamb. that followed her 10 school one
day." but all of them may not know that
there really was SUCH a Mary and such a
lamb. The original Mary was Mrs. Mary
L. Tyler. who was still living at Somer-
Vile. Mass, some years ago. hale and
having deserted IL. IL followed her every
where sac went" and finally died in her
arms. having been gored by a cow. Mrs.
Tyler did not write the now-famous verses,
three OF them were written by John Roul-
stone. who lived in the neighborhood. and
the other two were afterward added by a
Mrs. Townsend. Mrs. TYLER knit two pairs
OF stockings from the fleece OF her lamb
and these stockings In later years were
unraveled and sold In small bits, tied TO 3
card with Mary's autograph on Il. at a fair
held for the benefit of the old South Church
OF Boston, and the sum realized amounted
10 s2ll.

An Egyptian Song.


Night on the sea, and night upon the sky
And music in our hearts. we float there,
Lulied by the low sea voices, thou and J.,
And the winds kisses IN my cloudy hair
And thou didst gaze on me and call me
fair
EMBODIED by the starry robe of night
And then thy singing thrilled upon the air
Voice of the hearts desire and loves de
light.
Adrift. with starlit skies above.
With starlit seas below,
We move with all the suns that move,
With all the seas that flow;
For bond or free, earth, sky and sea,
Wheel with one circling will.
And thy heart drifteth on to me,
And only Time stands still.
Between two shores of Death we drift,
Behind are things forgot:
Before the tide is drifting swift
To lands beholden not,
Above, the sky is far and cold;
Below, the moaning sea
Sweeps Ger the loves that were of old,
But. oh. Love, kiss thou me.
All, lonely are the ocean ways,
And dangerous the deep,
And frail the fairy barque that strays
Above the seas asleep.
All, toll no more at sail nor oar,
We drift, or bond, or free;
On yon far shore the breaker roar.
But, oh, Love, kiss thou me.

The summer winds have lately fed,
And from the Northern valleys head
Come murmurs of the rising blast.

The hollow reeds sway in the breeze.

PRISONER SCORED.

Lewis, Tried for Larceny, Is Ac-
cused Also OF Perjury.
The case against George Lewis, &C
cused of stealing cigars worth 500 from
a wagon of the American Express COM
pany and belonging to Marks Brothers,
went to the jury yesterday afternoon.
The county attorney made an able
speech in summing up to the jury. He
alluded to the carnival of crime that is
going OIL n the city and de-
clared that Lewis is one of the
band that is responsible for the thiev-
ing, highway robberies and burglaries
of the city. He asked the jury to note
the appearance Of Lewis. He was we'll
dressed. and had an intelligent and re-
spectacle look. He never worked, and
admitted that he commonly associated
with thieves and robbers. He called
attention to the fact that Lewis had on
Friday testified that he had not
been sent to the penitentiary from
Minneapolis, but went on the stand
for his further cross examination
yesterday morning, and voluntarily
stated that he had committed perjury
when he said he had not been in the
penitentiary for year under the name
of Joseph Lewis. When he found that
he could not escape exposure he adj
mitted that he had committed the crime
of perjury, which is ten times more
heinous than petty stealing. Mr.. But
Ter declared that Lewis should be pun
ished for his theft. and that he will
have to answer to the crime of perjury
committed in open court at another
time. The jury remained out all
night.

KNOCKED HIM DOWN.
Masked Highwaymen Strike a
PennyieSS Victim.

Sunday evening S. Olson, residing at
the corner of Temperance and Thir-
teenth streets. had an encounter with
the masked highwaymen who have been
terrorizing the residents of st. Anthony
hill. Olson, on his way home shortly
after 10 o'clock, when hear the corner
of Twelfth and Robert streets was
stopped by two masked men. While
one of the highwaymen held
a revolver to bis head the
other went through his peck.
cts. Olson, however. when he left
home took only car fare with him, and
the thieves. after careful search, Sc
cured only nickel. The small returns
for their work reused the anger of the
thugs, and one of them struck Olson a
savage blow on the side of the head,
knocking him to the pavement. and
while he was down the TWAIN skipped.
From the description of the men the de-
tectives are certain they are the same
ones who have been doing the hOld-up
act every night for the past two weeks.

Travelling Men DiscIaim Any Com
nection With the Ball.
A delegation of representative travel
ing men of st. Paul called upon the
GLOBE yesterday to disclaim for them
selves and the entire fratern of
travelling men any connection whatever
with the so-called travelling mems mas
querade, or charity ball at Market hall
Saturday evening. From all accounts
of the ball. it appears to have been
most disgraceful affair, and the travel
ing men are deeply mortified to know
that their fraternity has been named
in connection with it. The delegation
stated that the travelling men knew
nothing of the affair until by accident
they saw in the newspapers Saturday
morning that the travelling men were to
give masquerade. They made hasty
inquiry among themselves, and found
that not member of the profession had
anything to do with it, and so all men
stayed away.
1t is understood that no relief society
or charitable institution has received
| any of the proceeds of the ball.

The witnesses subpenaed for the in
quest are Edward Erickson, brother of
the murdered man,, Ole Nelson and
john Martinson. who saw the murderer
after he left the scene; Fred Wagner,
an intimate friend of Erickson's, who

the council who introduced and had

sale of liquor in the hall stated that he
saw no reason why the police allowed
the sale Of liquor at the dances given i'm
the hall, as it was clearlyAin violation OF
the law, but it was done. and so dis
graceful were the orgies that it should
be stopped. A gentleman who seemed
to be conyersant with the matter said
yesterday that the whole thing could
be summed up in the explanation that
the present administration was .'busi-
ness one. which would also account
