TEN THOUSAND MILES OF WIRE, The Electric Web that Covers New York-—Bdison Underg round Wires, New York Star, On a rough caleulation it is estimat- ed - counting the wires of the tole- graphic companies, telephone compa- nies, district telegraph companies and the Police and Fire Departments there are more than 10,000 miles of telegraph wires swinging over Neow York city. They run in every imag- ineablo direction, and such a tremon- dous network of wire is unheard of and unknown in any other city. 1In the Continental cities of Europe the number of telegraph wires in opera- tion is & mere bagatelle compared with New York's gigantic showing. It is being seriously agitated that some concerted action should be tak- en with a view of placing all, or nearly all, the wires underground, in place of having them, as now, ob- structing the streets and disfiguring the housetops. A new danger from telegraph wires has recently been developed by the introduction of [the . electric light wires. Sucha tremendous current of electricity is§ necessary in- operating these lights, that a human being wh might happen to come in direct cir oait would be killed by the shck. Tue repairing of the wires affurds eui- plosment to a small army of live men and others, who are constanly o ed on the work, as the wires 1 ways breaking or becoming crossed, Not a storm comes along that does not do great damage to the wires, and if they could once be put under- grovnd an immense saving would re- sult to the companies; but then the outlay necessary to the perfect isolatiod and the worl to carry out such a colossal andertaking would be very large. There are doz- ens of patents and plans for putting the wires underground, but whether any of them are practicable for use on an extensive scale yet remains to be seen, The Edison Electric Light Com- pany are placing all their wires under ground, and have nestly ten miles al ready laid. One ot the chief difficul- ties in the way of placing the wires beneath the surface is the vact amount of sewers and pipes already laid. Some idea of the way the streets are already ocut up may be gained from the following figures, which ehow the number of miles al- ready under ground: Sewers, miles; water mains, 512 miles; gas pipes, 1 mile; pneumatic tubes, ;} mile; tubes for telegraph wires, 1} miles; tubes for electric light wires, 7 miles; total, 1,789 50-100 miles. According to the Superintendent of the Fire Department that department alone has some 900 miles of wire over ground, supported on about 6,000 poles. They have four wires under ground from Fire Headquarters, and about seventy-five wires under ground in Mercer street to the corner of Houston street.« These were laid ina wooden trough, and then a solution of pulverized glass, resin and other materials was poured into the trough, forming a solid, compact mass, It works well enough so far,but it would require several years to test the pat- ent thoroughly, and the wires only have been down about 6 months. From other sources it was learned that the wires in_all principle cities of Gt. Britian and the Continent are all placed beneath the ground, and that the system works well. The onl trouble experienced is locating a brenfi when one occurs and repairing it. This would prove a serious trouble in haying the wires under ground in New York, asthe streets would be continually dug up to get at the many breaks sure to occur. The wires are coated with the best gutta percha and placed in hardwood boxes or iron tubes. It has been found that, even with all these precautions, the bexes are eaten through, and the gutta per- cha covering of the wires destroyed by a voracious little species of worm, against whose boring proclivities even iron is scarcely proof. Sometimes a whole section of a street has to be torn up to discover the defective wire. Maine News.

Hop Bitters, so !reuly advertised in all the papers, secular and religious, are having a large sale, and are sup- planting all other medicines. There is no denying the virtues of the Hop plant, and the proprietors of these Bitters have shown great shrewdness and ability in compounding a Bitters, whose virtues are =0 palpable to every one’s observation.— [Examiner and Chronicle. marl-d2w A Burprised Confidence Man. New York World, “Can you tell me where Chatham street is?” asked a handsomely dress- ed young man of a World reporter who was standing at the haad of Chat- ham street square last night, “I promised to meet a friend in the—— saloon, which he said was on Chatham street, But Tam a stranger in the city and have lost my way.” The reporter was waiting for a Co- lestial guide, Ho Jee by name, who had promised to make & tour of the Chinese quarter with him, He there- fore felt justified in sayng: “I think that is Chatham strect over there, 1 am a stranger, too,but I came up that street from my hotel and I was told it was Chatham.” Thank you very much,” said the nice young man, ‘‘What a disagree- able night it is; won't you have a drink with me?”’ The reporter acquiesced and with his new friend entered a saloon, *‘I'll tako pome of your best brandy and Buagiton seitzer.” Chathim pguate saloons have but oue kind of brandy, avery bad kind, and the distinction made is in the price and not in the bottle, While discussing the liquids the nice young man glibly descanted on the marvelous sights to be seen in the city by strangers, end after dis- posing of t{e fourth brandy and selt- zer proposed that the reporter should accompaty him to the ——galoon to keep his engagement. “‘If my friend isn't there, we'll ¢o off on a quiet lit- tlo ‘racket’ —that's what they eall it, isn't iti” ‘I"he reporter demurred at first, but finally, unwilling to spoil a good story, started with the nice young man down Chatham street. ‘‘Here we are,"” he remarked, as he stopped at the head of a pair of stairs leading to a disrepu- table “dive,” and_showing a wonder- ful familiarity with the place. ‘‘Come down, we won't stay long. 1 can show you things you never dreamed of in of in the country. Tt's a lively place.” The reporter, at this point, wishing to make some return for his compan ions genesosity in paying &2 for 25 cents’ worth of wretched liguor. threw back his coat intending to offer him some cigarettes. . Before he could car ry out his intention the man turned and dashed at full speed up Chatham street. He had caught a glimpse of a fire badge, which close'y resembles that worn by policemen and detec tives, and v not waited to go on that little ratket | tososed Neovex Too Late to Mend J William street, Enst r SPRING Brossos has worked on me splendid. 1 had no ap- j etite; used to sleep Ladly and et up in ning unrefreshed; my breath was ffensive and 1 suffered from severe che; since using your Spring Blos ym all these sympt ma have -anished, and 1 feel quite wel Price 50 cents, trinl bottles 10 cents, mar?-dlw THE RICH AND THE POOR. Refutal of the Saying that the Rich Grow Richer, the Poorer. Now York Times, Are ‘‘the rich growing richer and the poor poorer!’ Me. Mulhatl,a well- | known Koglish statistician, refutes this much abased adage. Comparing 1840 with 1877 the probate returns of the United Kingdom showed that, | dividing all classes into rich, middle olnss, and working class in 1840, in England, of the first there were 2,40, Jor cent, of the second 21,20, of the llmt 76.40. In 1877 it was represent- ed by 3.70, 20.40, aud 66,90 per cent In 1840 Eogland had an aggregate wealth of 80 per cent as her share of the means of the wholo United King aom, but in 1877 Scotland showed in- creased means, and that of England foll somo 3 per cent. If in 1840 the amounts of the property on which probate cr succession duties were paid represented a total value of means equivalent to £54,610,000, this was about £2 1d average per inhabitant. Tn 1877 it was £131,460,000, or £3 198 per person in the United Kingdom. It is in Scotland that there is more wealth in proportion to persons than perhaps any other country in the world, During the thirty-seven years from 1840 1o 1877 her wealth has in- creased from £196,000,000 to £970,- 000.%0r to-day she has £277 to every iunabitant, “Forty yoars ago,” writes Mr. Mulhill, “*Scotland swarm- ed with beggars to such a degree that the Sherifls declared the state of the country was so alarming, and the farmers were so poor that they bled their cattle and cocked the blood as food.” With increased means, as the Duke of Argyll has conclusive- ly shown, comes a greater demand of the individual for food. If statistics are to relied upon, in the year 1840 each person in the United Kingdom consumed twenty-two ounces of tea, fifteen pounds of sugar, 269 pounds of wheat, and 84 pounds of meat. In 1880 the quantities used were tea, 73 ounces; sugar, b4 pounds; wheat, 368 pounds: meat 118 pounds. Wherever the middle class is the most comfort- able the country is most prosperous. This is three times as numerous in France as in Germany, and lowest in Russia. In fact, Russia is a country of Princes and peasants, and the first, some 24,746 have an average income of $185 each. Some idea of the in- crease, however, of the cost of living may be had from the following state- ment; « Whereas, from 1836 to 1840 an English family of five could live comfortably on £92 14s, from 1876 to 1880 it would have cost £107 4s, When our own census is presented in all its various aspects, a very curious analy- sns can be made on this interesting subject. It does not seem, then, that in any country ‘‘the rich are growingriccer, and the poor poorer.” NOTICE. 0. G.
