METHODS HER AND ABROAD.
Ways Of Steering Boats i'm England,
 France and Germany.


 A comparison of the different meth ods of doing what is practically the same thing in various parts of the world is both interesting and amusing to the thoughtful observer, says Cassier's Magazine. On American ferryboats the import is well known of the ''ting-ting" or 'jingle-jingle' of the bell by which the man in the wheelhouse communi- cates with his fellow mortal in the en- zine room. On the Thames, however, it would be considered prac actically inn possible to convey information in this manner, and the captains of the small paddle steamers on that stream stand on the paddle boxes and sing out: Ease 'er!" Back 'er!" etc., apparently to nobody in particular, while these in- teresting remarks are promptly repeat ed in shrill tones by a small boy into speaking tube which communicates with the lower regions. On the Seine, in France, this process is simplifed and a large trumpet-shaped mouth piece flares out in front of the man at the wheel, and he ye1ls his commands into this funnel, the other end of which is supposed to reach the engineer. The large steamers on the Rhine, in Ger many, are controlled, not by the usual wheel placed in the wheelhouse for ward, but by a very large wheel on a vertical axis, placed right amidships upon an elevated platform or bridge, and several men pass the handles from right to left, or upon occasion trot round in circle. and it would doubt less be considered serious temptation of Providence, or at least a re- flection upon the fatherland, if anyone were to attempt to construct Rhine steamer with the ordinary form Of steering gear.

did not leave their anchorage inside Of
Sandy Hook.
Everybody is thoroughly disguised;
The patience OF the public il almost
exhausted. From $1,000 people who
went out on the first day. the crowds
have dwindled until It Is perfectly safe
to say that less than 5000 people were
afioat today,
The outlook was so gloomy from a
money-making standpoint that some OF
the excursion boats which sold tickets
for the series Of races were trying today
to redeem them with the intention OF
abandoning their excursions altogether
Repeated poStponements have also
worn out the patience Of the command
ing owners OF the two yachts. Sir
Lip:on and Commodore Nor
gan each have a company OF invited
guests aboard their yachts.
Experts estimate that the big club
topsail which the Shamrock showed

about soc more square yards OF canvas

great advantage. and patriots are
whistlIne for a spanking breeze that
will prevent the hoisting OF these sky
scraping sails and bring the two boats
down TO even terms in the matter Of
canvas.

BRET HARTE's SPY STORY,
How Foreign EmlsSarieS Use our Of
acial Envelopes,

The use OF the official envelopes OF
the United States by both French and
German spies is an old dodge, says the
New Orleans Times Democrat, and a
great many stolen from the smaller
consulates in Germany. where the folk
in charge are rather careless about
their stationary. Some inkling Of this
leaked out years ago, and the thing
was talked about In diplomatic and
newspaper circles as a good joke. Bret
Harte was then in the consulate scr.
vice in England and naturally he heard
the parn. II struck him as good liter
AIRY material. and he wrote a short
story based upon 1t which was publish
ed In one Of the London Christmas an

not quite sure. in "a or 's5
This story" continued the newspa-

Farte's usual vein. and was very clever

narrative Of the America nconsul at a
fortified city in Interior Germany and
opened with the appearance at the local
garrison OF very raw recruit. who
speedily became the butt Of his COM
redes The poor fellow, who was the
soul Of sood-na;ured idiocy used to
come to the consulate to write letters
tc his brother in America. and was
allowed to help himself TO the office

and was supposed 20 nave been drown
ed in the river when bathing. Two
years the consul was In Paris. and
while seated In front OF boulevard
cafe was accos;ed by a smart young
French captain in full uniform. The
face OF the soldier was strangely IA
miliar, and suddenly a light broke In
upon the consul. The smart captain
was none other than the stupid recruit
who had a dear brother in far-away
America. He was French spy and
a matchless mimic, and the consul for
got his chagrln over the mlsused sta
tlonery in his admiration for the mans
pluck and audacity. The reader is CIV
en- plainly to understand that the let
ters written at the consulate never
went to America, but were addressed
TO secret agent in Paris and passed
safely through the mails guarded by
the official insignia OF Uncle Sam. That
tale was printed four or five wears ago
