If the purpose of the giver of the

She best form of vessel for sailing in
coast waters that purpose seems to
have been fulfilled in the fact that both
the American and British vessels built
for the coming contest are substan-
TALLY of the same type, with similar
appliances, and the contest is likely
to be decided by a mere chance differ
ence in the travelling of the vessels, or
in the happening of the wind. 1t is

''It's too bad," said friend to him
one morning, "that Charles Dickens
wont write for American publica-
tions."
"He wont, eh?" cried Mr.. Bonner.
"Just wait till L try"
He rushed down to his Office, wrote
to Dickens asking for a story and with
the letter sent a draft for $4,000.
Dickens was carried off his feet. He
accepted and at the same time asked
whether this was the way American
publishers did business.
ITS the way this one does," an
swered Mr.. Bonner. A while after
ward Mr.. Bonner captured Tennyson
by the same plan.
Mr.. Bonner, with all the tens Of
thousands of stories he published,
never read fiction. The only stories
he ever finished were Dickens's
"Hunted Down" and Sylvanus Cobb,
Jr.'s, "The Gunmaker of Moscow"
1t was his custom to read merely the
opening chapter, and if he found it
satisfactory to have the story read

The idea that anyone who has eve.
been familiar with the delight OF
driving an intelligent and spirited
horse will surrender that pleasure for
that of guiding a soulless machine
can only have occurred to a man city
born and bred, and thus deficient in
half the knowledge and experience
which makes for the happiness and
health of the race, says the Brooklyn
Eagle. The cheapening of horses.
which will come from the general use
Of automobiles, will extend the posi-
bilities OF driving to many persons to
whom horses have been hopeless lux
urles heretofore. The bicycle has
already begun that process and many
people in the country now own horses
who could not have done so at the ex-
alted prices which prevailed ten years
ago. The change is bound to go fur
ther, and although it will iniure the
horse breeders it will still leave mar
ket for horses of blood and breeding.
The demand which is left will be for
horses of the best quality, and the
good horse will come into more honor
for the qualities which no machines
can possess, and the poor horse will
no longer be worth his keep when the
automobile shall have been made cheap.
So long as these machines cost from
$40O to $4,000 each the horse need not
fear their competition outside the
husiest Of city streets.

Probably some enterprising explor-
Ell will soon attempt to reach the north
pole in an ice-crusher. We have a
fine one operating at the Mackinac
straits and doing duty as a railway
ferryboat at the same time. 1t sails
easily through ice two and half feet
thick, and has broken down ice walls
as high as fifteen feet But this is
left far behind by Russian boat in
the Baltic steaming easily through ice
five feet thick. Whereat her COM
manding officer grows sanguine, and,
accepting Nansen's s assertion that polar
ice seldom attains twenty five feet in
thickness, concludes that an ice
breaking steamer of 20, 600 horse
power would be strong enough to
reach the pole No doubt somebody
will try it and spoil all the fun and
danger Of north pole hunting.
