The rise was stimulated by rumors that
the dividend rate would be increased.

The Number Of Breadwinners.

In 1870, says Carroll d. Wright in the
September Atlantic. there We're Il. 80. 923
persons engaged in supporting themselves
and the remainder of the people; that is
to say, 81. 43 per cent. of the total popula-
ton were so engaged. In 1880. the number
of breadwinners was II, 1872, 09s or 34.67 per
cent of the total population. In 1890. this
number had risen to %, 661, or 1851 per
cent of the total population. BY bread
winners is meant all who were engaged
either as wage-earnerS, or salary re-
ceivers. or proprletors. of whatever grade
or description. and all professional per-
sons-in fact, every one who was in any
way employed in any gainful pursuit
The figures quoted show that the proper
ton of the total population thus en-
ployed Is constantly increasing. Analyz-
ing the statistics. we find some remark
able results. and in general, that the
number engaged in the lowest walks of
business, laborers and the like is de-
creasing in proportion. while those en-
ployed in the higher walks are increasing
in number relatively to the whole popu-
latiOn.

A Quick Passage.

The big American four-masted ship
Susquehanna, lying at anchor down the
| bay, arrived in port. Friday night after
one of the fastest voyages from Honolulu
| in the record of sailing vessels Less
| than year ago she sailed from Philadel
| phia for Japan. From Japan she went to
| the Hawaiian Islands, and. sailing thence
| May 30 with a cargo of 2l00 tons of raw
| sugar she made this port in SO days, COW
| ering course Of over 1900 nautical
miles.
| The Susquehanna is Bath ship of
1900 tons, commanded by Capt. ]. r. Sew
all. nephew of Arthur Sewall. the silver
| candidate for the vice presidency last
| fall She is owned by Arthur Sewall &
Co. Capt: Sewall had with him on this
voyage his wife and sister. The crew
| numbered thirty. all told. With spread
of 5000 yards of canvas. the Susquehanna
| had the northeast trades with her from
the Sandwich Islands to the Horn. which
| she reached in forty-nine days She was
| in latitude IA degrees south. longitude lis
degrees west on July 4. A pig was killed.
and the crew had roast. with punch and
| fresh vegetables, in celebration of the
day.
Gales We're encountered west of the
| cape. but from 50 degrees south in the
| Pacific around to 80 degrees south in the
Atlantic only ten days We're consumed.
Fair winds marked the run up the South
Atlantic. She was nineteen days from
the Horn to the equator, averaging 2i0
knots day. and one days run being $40
knots. She was twenty-three days COM
ing north from the equator Many q
tramp steamer takes longer. Yet the Sus-
quehanna had light winds from the eotua-
tor. The average daily run for the voy-
age was 160 knots.
The trip is the fastest made by sail
ing vessel from Honolulu since the Sow
ereign of the Seas did ii in So days in the
early tifties. The Sovereign of the Seas
was one of the clippers turned out by
Donald Mckay. and one of the proudest
sailers that ever hailed from Boston On
her record-breaking run around the Horn
she one day made 436 knots, and for four
days averaged sos knots
Sailing ships are made larger now than
in those days but they are freight car
riers pure and simple, and the fine lines
and narrow prows of the clippers are sac
riticed to cargo space.

Birds generally build their nests il
out-of- the-way places. but the oldest
location is reported from Michigan.
While a farmer was shearing sheep 5
back little brown egg fell from the
fleece and broke on the floor. The
shearer investigated and found bird
nest on the sleeps back, so con-
structed that with ordinary treatment
the eggs could not roll out; but the bird
had not figured on the clipping of the
wool The nest, of course, was warmer
than the ordinary kind would have
been: but how the mother bird could
distinguish which of the flock of sheep
bore her nest is a difficult question to
answer.
