The governor's private secretary, George Pearson. has a brand new graphophone in his office. The graphophone is used by the gov- ernor’s stenographer and type-writer, thus en- abling the governor or the private secretary, when they are ina hurry, to wind up the ma- chine and talk into it the messages and letters to be transcribed by the typé-writer later on. This saves a good deal of bother when neither clerk nor type-writer is about, and the invention is a success asa help in the executive department. IT MADE THE TYPE-WRITER BLUSH. Private Secretary Pearson had a curious and somewhat startling experience with the grapho- phone a few days ago. He began to turn the erank by means of which the transmitted mes- sages are given out from the throat of the machine im the same voice and with the same intonation as they were talked into its funnel. ‘The private secretary supposed that he was about to cause the machine to give out to the young lady type-writer a message which the governor had talked into it the evening previ- ous. The young lady wasall attention, and the private secretary began solemnly to turn the crank, which works byatreadle. To his horror and the immense embarrassment of the young lady the following amorous jumble was given out with decided emphasis: “Now, mt, George. * * * There; somebody will come. Of course, I love you. There, somebody really is coming, and you have mussed my hair all up. * * * Please, love, 1am so afraid that some one will come in. and, besides, I can't work this crank if you insist upon kissing me all the time. * *" The stars represent sounds too familiar tobe mistaken. They were the smacking of lips and other sounds which accompany the interchange of caresses between lovers. 4& SATISFACTORY EXPLANATION. It was some little while before the matter could be satisfactorily explained either by the young lady or by Mr. Pearson, who at first were disposed to ¢ that somebody had been playing a practical joke upon them.

Sir Julian Pauncefote Graphically and Pleasantly Sketched. Edmund Yates in The New York Tribune. Loxpox, March 18.—Sir Julian Panncefote, K. C. B., G. C. M. G., lives in Cromwell place. As the clock of the neighboring church strikes 10, a sedate messenger from the foreign office, ing a green calico bag filled with red morocco dispatch-boxes of variows sizes, an- nounces his arrival at one of the most unpre- tending houses in the street by a ring loud enough to disturb the after-breakfast medita- tions of Sir Charles Lopes, six doors away, if he has not already set out for the high court of justice. Not one of the thousands who drive in summer-time through Thurlow Place. pn the way to Hurlingham, is probably aware of the important part which the modest home of the permanent under-secretary of state for foreign affairs in South Kensington has —_ iu contemporary history during the last flew years. It will not be until the « sisearies of Downing street cease their morning visits and take the bag of boxes elsewhere that peo- le will realize the fact that Sir Julian Paunce- ote, transformed into a minister plenipoten- tiary, has really crossed the Atlantic to pour oil upon the troubled waters at Washington. For three hours every working day there is a cease- less exchange of communications between Ar- lington street, the foreign office, and the per- manent under-secretary’s abode, and it is not until luncheon arrives that the stalwart guar- dian of a hundred state secrets can find time to see anybody but official visitors. In spite of the exigencies of the ominous pink labels which abound both on the floor and the desk, Sir Julian contrives to find time to tell you something about the traditions of his ancestors and the story of lus own active life. There were Pauncefotes in the west of England when the ‘Domesday Book” was written. One Sir Grimbald Pauncefote was knighted by Sir Edward Bobun at the taking of Gloucester cas- tle during the wars of the barons, and obtained from him the lioncels which have constituted the armorial bearings of the family ever since, Sir Grimbald married en heiress in the church of Much Cowarne, in Herefordshire, There is still to be seen an effigy of the Paunccfote who sailed with Prince Edward to Tunis in 1270, and was taken prisoner by the Saracens, and whose wife is supposed to have obtained his release by sending her right hand as a ransom to the | infidels, This incident gave rise to the legend of the “‘couped” hand, which is still implicitly believed at Much Cowarne. The Pauncefotes possessed their character- istic motto, “Pensez Forte,” six centuries at least before Julian Pauncefote was born at Munich, just sixty-one years ago, An educa- tion at Paris and Geneva gave ractical knowledge of foreign languages and a lucky ac- cident led him to exchange a military cadet- ship in Madras for forensic studies in the inner temple. Sir William Molesworth first intro- duced him to the colonial office and diplomacy. He practiced diligently as a conveyuncer at home before he went to Hong Kong to become the attorney-general and draft a code of civil procedure. The year 1872 brought him the chief justiceship of the Leeward Islands and knighthood. After successfully opening the federal supreme court, putting the whole judi- cial administration in working order and giving the Leeward Islands a civil code, Sir Julian re- turned to England to succeed Lord Knutsford as the legai assistant to the under secretary of state at the colonial office. ‘The chief justiceship of Ceylon conld not tempt him to return to the tropics. Two years later Lord Derby offered him the newly- created legal assistant under-secretaryship the foreign office. Lord Beaconstield gave him the ribbons of the Bath and the Colonial Order. Lord Granville selected him to suc- ceed Lord Tenterden as the permanent under- secretary of state for foreign affairs. His good work on the Suez canal international commis- sion made hima G. C. M. G. During six years Sir Julian has watched over our relations with the great powers and has gained a reputation for energy, clear-headedness, calmness and tact which fairly astonished those who put their faith in the absolute necessity of long training in the routine of the foreign office. The position of British minister to the United States is one of peculiar difficulty, but the past achievements of Sir Julian Pauncefote, his special aptitude for dealing satisfactorily ‘with burning questions, inspire a cheering confi- dence that he will soon be as much Fixed in Connecticut avenue as in Cromwell Place. There are few London drawing-rooms where youthful members of the corps diplomatique are more hegre oy 4 at home than in Cromwell lace. The kindly hospitality ot Lady ote and her popular daughter is al appreciated, especially by new ar Julian Pauncefote is always on the best of terms with the foreign secretaries and attaches, There was a time when he could hold his own with the foil against all comers, and in Wash- ington he may possibly find time to return to his favorite exercise. The absence of Sir Ju- lian and Lady Pauncefote must create a void not easily filled up; but while looking forward to their speedy return, laden with fresh laurels, we shall consoled by the intelligence that his bonhomie, firmness, and profound knowl- edge of men and things are rapidly paving the way to a renewal of that entente cordial which in the best interests of civilization should as- suredly exist between the two great English- speaking nations of the world. tional Capital. Brooklyn at the 3 From the Brooklyn Eagle. Neither Secretary Tracy nor Congressman William Copeland Wallace will take their fami- lies to Washington until late in the fall, and both of these officials will probably rent their Brooklyn houses furnished while they are away. Gen. Tracy lives on Montague street in a large brown-stone front, There is not much display of wealth about the house, but it ap- pears comfortable and homelike and is fur- nished in perfect taste. The parlor where the new Secretary of the Navy received the con- gratulations of his friends has a history of its own. It was in this room that the Low mayor- alty campaign was planned and fixed up, and the walls might disclose a good many political secrets if they could speak. Congressman Wal- lace’s house on Gates avenue is a perfect gem in its way, His family includes a wife and one child, and the former is very popular in the fashionable society of the hill. Ina social way Mr. Wallace enters upon his official life in Wash- ington under the most favorable auspices, He is on terms of pleasant friendship with Vice- President and Mrs. Morton; has large means at his command, and is not averse to entertain- ing. The social end of the administration will receive valuable assistance from Mr. Wallace and his charming wife. You may depend upon it that Gen. Tracy will be one of the best dressed men in Presi- dent Harrison’s cabinet. Before leaving town last Monday the Secretary, in company with his daughter, Mrs. Wilmerding, stole away from his office in the Garfield building and went di- rectly to an establishment where he devoted nearly two hours to selecting what he should wear and to being measure His wardrobe for official life will be rich in material and qufet in style. He left his order for two black Prince Albert coats, waistcoat and trousers to match, a dress suit, a cutaway and sack coat for driv- ing. General Tracy has always been what the world considers a well-dressed man. His style has been just careless enough to avoid any- thing like fastidiousness. Ap of this topic the question arises as to which of the cabinet officers will assume the role of Garland, who gave the dress coat the cold shoulder. paint eae No Faces at the Windows. New York Correspondence St. Louis Republic. New Yorkers never sit in their windows to enjoy the entertainment furnished by the pro- cession of people and vehicles. I don't believe Ihave seen a genuinely fashionable New York man or woman looking out of a window of their own houses in years, It is an umspoken and unwritten law that you shall keep out of sight, and shroud the interior of your houses with layer on layer of lave curtains, oftentimes with as many as four different sets of them at each | window.

Interesting Particulars ot the Methods of Carrying it On. ‘The Paris Temps published the other day a letter from Arabia giving some details in re- gard to the slave markets in Hodeida and other towns. Its said that the Turkish government closes its eyes to the traffic, and that conse- quently slavery flourishes with little or no ob- struction. The few vessels scattered along the great distance from Zanzibar to Suakin are utterly inadequate for the purpose of suppress- ing the trade. To exercise an effective sur- veillance a large fleet of cruisers would be | necessary, involving, of course, an immense } expense, The captains of the slavers are thoroughly skilled in the methods of concealing their mer- chandise. For example, when a war ship is | approaching the slaves are thrown in the bot- tom of the Boia, ‘and barrels and bales and all sorts of things are placed over them, with little care for the danger of their suffocation. In j this way many a slaver escapes as a vessel en- ged in an honest business. In the Red Sea ey ewploy other means of escape. ‘They deal principally in children, and when there is danger of capture they put their captives in small boats aryl land them on some island, where they conceal them as best they can. One of the difficulties in the way of stopping this | ic is the consent of the slaves themselves, In liberty away from their own countries they | see nothing but starvation before them, and | the result is that many liberated slaves often resell themselves, Moreover, they have dread of Europeans. ‘The Arabs tell them that the whites eat the blacks. The proper way to suppress the traftic would be to commence with the slave markets, which | flourish under the protection or, at least, toler- | ance of the Turkish government, Formerly | the markets wore carried on openly, now they | are operated secretly, aud that is the only di ference, The slavers land their merchandise upon some deserted portion of the coast, and from there it is brought overland to Hodeida, Everybod, informed of the arrival. The | governor is the first to get the news, The slaves are placed with agents, who sell them either in | the town itself or in the interior. Of course, i the prices vary according to the quality of the | goods: but of late years the prices have been | considerably raised on account of the fees which the merchants are obliged to pay to the Turkish officials, Nevertheless, a good servant can be purchased for about $60 or $80. The negroes from Zanzibar and the Soudan are generally employed as servants, The women from Djimona and Abyssinia are high-priced. They are generally very pretty, with tolerably clear complexions and features of the Eur pean type. They fill the harems of Arabia. A handsome Galla about twelve years old will sell easily for $120, $150, or even $200. In Hodeida, where there are two European con- suls, this trade is carriedon secretly, but in the | interior it goes on openly. In Loheva, a little town north of Hodeida, the slaves are sold at auction, and the lieutenant-governor receives | $2 for each slave that is sold. Moreover, he generally selects one or two for himself out of each new cargo. This functionary does not even know how to sign his name, and the cadi of the same town deals in Gallas and Son- oon as the most legitimate business in the world. All that the Turkish at | | government does against this traffic is to give a color of satisfaction to the European powers. Lately a Turkish war vessel seized two slavers with 160 negroes; but this is, after all, only a thin veil to cover the acts which are going on every day under the shelter of the Ottoman flag. About one thousand slaves are annually sold at Hodeida, and the trade is carried on at other points on a much larger scale. ee essa Schoolboy Boycotters. Paris Dispatch to the London Daily News, Mme. Carnot has been earning the peace- maker's blessing. Some time ago a strife arose at the Ecole Polytechnique between the pupils and Gen, Henry, the governor, which ended in the cadets boycotting his wife and in stopping all holidays for the year. Mme. Carnot takes a great interest in her husband's former and her future school, and, hearing of the strained ions between Gen. Henry and the cadets, drove there yesterday and asked to be allowed to mediate. The leading cadets were summoned to her presence and she gave them a kindly lecture, advising them to offer an apology. She said Gen. Henry knew that the future of France in a great degree depended upon the young gentlemen under him, and that was the reason | die at both of his severity. Mme. Carnot’s mediation was, needless to say, completely successful. A Race for Life. ME. NORTON’S EXCITING AND VERY RAPID TRIP TO DENVER, Denver Special to the New York Sun, March 18, Near this city yesterday A. F. Starkworth at- tempted to murder Ellis Norton, a ranchman. ‘The men bad previously had some misunder- standing. They lived near each other, and met frequently, but no trouble of a serious nature was anticipated. Yesterday morning Norton hitched up his team and was driving into Den- ver. when he heard a farm wagon approaching. from behind. He paid no attention until the team was within 100 yards of him. Then it flashed through his mind instantly that it was the intention of Starkworth to meet him on the plains, and, not being armed, he whipped up his horses to their highest speed. His pur- suer called upon him to stop, which was un- noticed. An instant later a shot was fired, and the bullet whizzed alongside his head. This emphatic hint spurred him to redoubled efforta, He applied his whip vigorously. The pursued and the pur@ier raced for nearly a mile, when Starkworth fired a second shot. Gradually Norton's team drew away from his enemy and dashed into town at a fearful rate, running over dogs and everything that chanced to be in the way. When he sighted a policeman he stopped his horses, explained the circumstances to hit and about twenty-five minutes .ater he pe ceived Starkworth driving swiftly down the street, and had him placed under arrest. Equal to the Occasion. From the San Francisco Chronicle. They were telling experiences the other night and Col. Granniss told one of his.

The conductor came along punching the tick- ets, and this cowboy did not pay any attention tohim, At last the conductor laid his hand on the cowboy’s shoulder and said, “Ticket, please.” The cowboy turned in true cowboy style, pulled out his revolver and pointed it at the conductor, “Here's my ticket.” The conductor walked on and punched every- body else's coupon. Then he disappeared. The little incident had been forgotten by almost everybody on the car. The cowboy was in a quiescent state and the car was still when the conductor came in. He walked leisurely up the aisle and suddenly stopped before the cow- boy, placed a great big knife dangerously con- tiguous to his vital part and said quictly: “Lemme me see that ticket again, "The cowboy paid his fare. ewe Signaling at From the London Truth.

RECKLESS AND FOOLISH STUDENTS PULLED DOWN THE STATUE OF PROFESSOR SILLIMAN. One of the grossest pieces of vandalism that has taken place at New Haven in many years was accomplished about 1 o'clock Tuesday morning on Yale campus, Some unknown students stole a large derrick rope from the new building going up where the Yale fence used to stand, and then forming a slipping noose they threw it over the neck of the hand- some bronze statue of the Hon. Benjamin Silli- maa and pulled it down to the ground, crack- ing the neck of the statue nearly off, badly bending the base and chipping off a large piece of the granite pedestal. ‘The fall caused a shock like a small earthquake, as the statue was about 9 feet high and weighed several tons. The head was buried in the ground nearly afoot, The statue was in a corner of the rectangle formed by Battell chapel and Farnam building. and was quite an ornament to the campus. The majority of the students condemn the outrage unreservedly, and the members of the faculty are making earnest ef- forts to fipd out the daring iconoclasts, They will, Withont doubt, be expelled from college if their identity is discovered. =e pHa Sea The Prince and the Marquis. From the New York Truth. The sudden departure of Prince Eristoff on the Burgoyne on Saturday for France wasa sad blow to the small creditors he left behind him. I do not think the prince owed yery much money; but, in getting away without allowing himself to be sued or arrested again, he de- prived a few ambitious tradespeople of an opportnnity to advertise themselves at his ex- pense. His debts in New York do not, after all, represent any ve large amount of money, and, beyond the rather discreditable transac- tion with Mr. Rockwell, the furrier, I dotbt whether there is anything that can be ‘partien- larly urged against him during his sojourn in America. But for this unfortunate transaction, Thave not the least doubt that Prince Eristoff would have succeeded in accomplishing that which really brought him to this country—the marrying of a rich American girl. He came here with no other purpose in mind, and he was swimming on the sea of success when his foolish transaction with Rockwell practically shattered allhis hopes. It is this that led to the expose of his previous life, and, conse- quentiy killed all his cherished plans, Speaking of Prince Eristof,I received a communication the other day from the Mar- quis de Leuville, who, in great jubilation of heart, is having himself interviewed by some of the English papers on the subject of his pre- vious quarrel with this gentleman. The Mar- quis de Leuville appears to gloat over the mis- fortunes of his former rival, and is evidently making the most ont of the incidents connected with his New York career, It appears from in- terviews that are now being printed in England that the true cause of the trouble between the marquis and the prince was that the latter bor- rowed a handsome cigarette case from the for- mer and pawned it. This rather disposes of the romantic story which was extensively ci lated at that time, and which involved the n: of a lady well known in New York business circles. But it also robs the Marquis de Leu- ville of good deal of kudos which he enjoyed as the chivalrous defender of a woman, ores Patniotic Leacvers on Trrat.—Senator Na- quet und Depaties Laguerre and Turquet, who are being prosecuted by the French govern- ment for their connection with the Patriotic league, were arraigned before an examining magistrate yesterday.
