HOW NAVIGATORS ARE HELPED BY UNCLE SAM'S SURVEYS AND CHARTS. The report of the hydrographer to the bu- reau of navigation, Lieut. Geo. L. Dyer, gives an extended account of the operations of the hydrographic office during the past year. The branch hydrographic offices in the different seaboard cities have inereased the friendly re- lations existing between the navy and mer- ehant marine. The collection and discussion of data for the investigation of magnetic varia- tion in various parts of the world has been con- tinued with valuable results. The number of copies of charts issued to ships-of-war during the year was 10,533. Numerous instances of the value of the pilot chart are given, among them the record of the great log raft and the ious dangers to navigation that have been ved by the United States steamer Des- patch from time to time. The efficacy of the use of oil for calming the seas is recognized in al manner in the ingenious contriv- in the market for its distribution in of danger. exhibit of the hydrographic office at the Centennial exposition at Cincinnati was vtry complete. consisting of enlarged photographs showing the diferent steps in a hydrographic survey, a series of engraved charts indicating the work accomplished by the various men-of- war engaged in surveying during the last few Years, instruments used in surveying, meteor- ological charts, pilot, wind, and current charts, & portable observatory used by the longitude party, and interesting models showing the bed of portions of the Atlantic. e party justsentto Mexico and Central America is to take observations for magnetic variation as well as for longitude. Its outfit, collected by the hydrographic office, is very complete for these purposes. Relating to the subject of ice in the vicinity © jrand Banks it is stated that the cap- tains of transatlantic steamers on the eve of sailing call at the branch offices for the latest reports and shape their courses accordingly; also, these reports are furnished to various steam-hip managers watching for the opening of n tion inthe St. Lawrence river, the vessels to that locality being information. erued by thi t most shipmasters now follow the direc- ns given by the pilot chart for their safety during these terrible storms.

Differences Between the English and American Products. London Letter to the New Yurk Times, To see the two girls—English and American | —dancing a polka is to see all the differences | between them emphasized. The American girl is a nervous creature. She is as excitable as a thoroughbred mare. When she dances, her eye sparkles, her cheek finshed, her face is | lighted up, and every nerve is at tension in the thrill of music and motion. Life is a living, panting reality just then. The English girl, i= the contrary, does not alter her amiable | torpidity in the least. She does not smile. She is as grave as ever. As she turns solemuly around she might, as far as her expression goes, be reading an invisible volume of ser- mons. She has not a vestige of abandon and so dances rather angularly. The English foot large. She does not dance: Dai | ing is not a delight; | not in the domain of art but of calisthenic: She is a stately column of blanc mange ona rotary pedestal, and seems to have just as much of feeling as that tasteless luxury has of flavor. Tn society, which she enters at eighteen or nineteen or later, her manner With strangers is rigid to the degree of austerity. This is dne pértly to shyness and partly to that worship of ropriety which the English governess and the Engiish boarding-school mistress devote their entire energy to inculcating. The American irl, with her grace, quickness, savoir faire, {nowledge ot herself, of the world, and of men, isas different from her ate Mr. Pygmalion’s sentimental lady friend from jalatea’s statue. There is an individuality in her conversation and manner, and in the way in which she wears her clothes. She can talk, flirt, and take care of herself under all circum- stances, The fact is, that she {s thoroughly wide awake while the English girl is slumber- ing. The English girl marries somewhete be- tween 21 and 96, and makes the best of mothers. All the ills of matrimony she bears with pe: fect ease, her muscles being firm, her nerves anshaken and her brain quiet. Stupidity is a biessing under certain circumstances, and when awoman is too brainy, that quality is likely to be conspicuously absent in her chil- dren, She devotes herself to her family and her home. The home life in England is as delightful as it is uique. The extent to which two people can be interested in each other. in their children and in their home to the exelu- | sion of everything else on earth would be aur- prising in the country of divorces. After half a dozen years of matrimony the English girl Legins to be somewhat interesting as a talker. A sbrewd international observer said the other night that the English girl of eighteen com- | pared mentally with the American girl of | twelve, while the American girl of eighteen was represented in English society only by the young married woman. About the time’ that she becomes a grandmother the English girl, mentally, becomes thoroughly awake. The English girl of eighteen suffers by com- parison with the American, but the English | girl of eighty has no rival, Her rival has lon; since been shelved or entombed. It seems har: ou American wouen that it should be so. They ure unfortunate in several respects, and the Joss of the beantiful afternoon of life, which every old English woman will assure you is the best part of it, is a most serious one. Women, like other people, live but once. and it seems as though a little wisdom put out at interest by the mothers of the next generation in America would bring in a heavy return of happiness. It is all v well for the American girl to be smart, but she wears herself ont at it." It isthe | fashion of her country. She knows too much. | Her brain is too active. She learns too much | at boarding-school, particularly of subjects not set down in the regular curricitum of study. It is not the privilege of humanity to see very far beyond the tip of its nose in any direction. and the entire sum of human knowledge isso trifling that advanced study amounts to little. There is no particular necessity for any girl to be witty, or subtle, or clever. She had much bet- ter, for her own sake. be stupid and happy. If she has a clear skin and good teeth she has all that is required. Feminine youth and purity have #lways ranked as the most beautiful things of earth, and are nowise lessening in popular- ity. Besides, stupid girls always have good fig- ures, Their blood is not incessantly dancing to the brain, and the ‘ies have time to make | curves and dimples in the proper places. And | when it comes to wasting twenty or thirty years | under a tombstone which might be most agree- ably passed in dinner parties the value of stu- pidity is not to be gainsaid. —— > eee Dangers of the Telephone. From the London Standard, A good many stories are already current of mistakes caused by the telephone.

It was only a hundred miles ong, and & hundred miles ain't much in Dakota, but it was a railroad from top to bot- tom, We'd made a pile o* money, me and Billyand we about owned Zero Valley. and when the country began to get settled up we said we'd give ‘em a railroad, and we did, That railroad cost a sight o’ money, but it was worth it.

I wanted to have silver mountin i have that. He's a thinker, Bill is, and he thought that when the train robbers stopped the train they'd tear the cars to pieces, so we let it go at nickel. Weil, I wanted aregular eastern road, with brakemen to call out the statio: They don't generally do that in the west, you know. I sent east for brakemen, and I ordered college graduates, for I was going to have everythin the best. I had ‘em sent out there all traine up ready for the first trip. They was as fine a looking set a boys as you'd want to see. When I got ‘em into their blue uniforms, with their gold buttons and silver badges, they did look | encour: ing. I was pleased, now tell you, and I said to Bill the morning we was going to pull out on our first trip, “Bill, this is a great country; we beat the world on everything we tackle.” Bul wasn’t so cheerful. He ain't a feather- brained :aen, you know, and he don’t often let his feelings rim away with him. I never knew him to warm up over anything but Injuns, He did use to get a little worked up over them crittersinthe early days. Well, he said he hoped everything would turn out all right, but he wasn't going to yell before he got outo’ the woods, We had a crowd on the first trip. Every- body was there. Everything worked well when we started. But the ‘thing I wanted most was to hear the brakeman call out the station. That is what 1 was waiting for. I had white posts oe up tee where I wanted him to open the loor and shout out the station. I began to grow veryous when we got near Bee-at-riss, “Beatrice,” some people call it, I don’t object to that if people like it, but we always pro- nounce it Bee-at-riss out there to rhyme with mattress, you know, Bee-at-riss. We named it after Sheriff Bowie's little girl. As I said, I began to get nervous when we got near Bee-at- riss. Iwas afraid he'd forget the white post, os didn’t want to have the whole thing spoiled, But he remembered it, and my heart just toad oy when he threw the door open sudden- 'y. Then that infernal college dude scream¢ out “Bay-a-tree-chay! Buy-a-tree-chay! This station is Bay-a-tree-chay!” 1 went into the telegraph office and tele- graphed down to Friezdale for the lynching Party.

It is said that the accident at Montreux last week was due to the careless transmission or the careless reception of a message. Perceiving that the reservoir attached to the Chillon electric tramway was dangerously full, the manager telephoned to his subordinates in charge: Ne mettez plus deau—don't turn on any more water: but the latter, not catch- ing the all-important negative, understood simply plus d'eau—more water.” Accordingly he turned on a flood of water. the reservoir burst, a number of persons were drowned and vast damage was doue.
