By Wire to China.
Now York World.
It is quite 25,000 miles, ns the cable
li^htninK Hies, from Iloiur Kong to Co
ney Island, so that it is quite safo to
say that when the messages are sent
which tell us of the doings of the con
tending forces of Japan and China the
front end of the procession of words is
coming ashore at the late lamented Me-
Kano’s bailiwick buforo the rear end
lias been emptied into the sea by tlio
Hong Kong operators. Pekin is exact
ly due enHt or west, of New York us you
choose, being on the same parallel of
latitude and but 20 degrees nearer to
the west than to the east, and Hong
Kong is as far south of Pekin as Ha
vana is from New York. So if there
were an air telegraph to the Chlnoso
capital the message would liavo tolly a
little matter of something like 12,000
miles.
Hut it ib by many and devious paths,
under tropical seas aad over bleak Asi
atic mountain ranges, across the dark
stretches of Persia, through the land
of the Arabian Knights, across the
Caucasaian mountains, skirting around
the lotioly shores of the Danube, across
Austria, across Germany, across Franco
to England, and from England, in its
last, linal deep water plunge under the
North Atlantic to Coney Island—over
all these weary leagues of land ami sea
the signalled words are rushing.
No matter what the name of the
town in Chinn the message is dated as
coming from, It is llong Kong, that is
the great cable clearing house. Here it
is that the messages are dumped iiuo
the sea, not touching land again until
they turn up on the marshy shoros of
Singapore.
There is a mnn at Singapore who
catchos them as they rush in out of the
wet and sends them hurling back into
the water again, when they leap up to
the hold coast of densely wooded Po
nang, at the entrance of the Malacca
straits, Ifore they catch a long breath
for a divo across another sea to Madras,
away down in Southern India,
With the exception of two brief
plunges, one up to and partly through
the Persian gulf and the other under
the English channel, it is all land trav-
el for thousands of leagues, after leav
ing Madras. The first heat is a little
skip of (HO miles northward across India
to Bombuy. Then the story takes to
the water again, until it rushes out at
white-walled, plague-infested, filthy
Hush ire, on the Persian gulf.
Perhaps there is just a gasping mo
ment or two of rest for the message at
Hushire. It is the Botany buy of cable
operators—Bushiro. They get the Bu
shire station sometimes when the Man
agement thinks they need a little quiet
life away from temptation, and tho cli
mate of Bushiro is not calculated to in
spire a violent form of energy. So we
will say there are ’.lifteen seconds for
refreshments at Bushire, and then off
tho flying train of words goes to lofty
Shiraz, nearly 5,000 feet above the lev
el of the sea and tho handsomest town
in all Persia. Butthere is no stop at
Shiraz. Tehern is tho place where tho
story changes wires. From Tehern it
jumps the Caucasus, skips around the
eastern and northern shores of Dio
Black Sea, flashes through much-bat
tered Sebastopol, and so on to (tdessa,
where it is switched to another wire
that carries it through the Balkan Prov
inces to Austria, Germany, Franco and
London, where it is flung to Land’s
End. on the bleak Cornish coasts of
England, and there it takes a long
breath for its final plunge down among
the whales and sharks and rotting bones
of dead ships and dead men at the bot
tom of the North Atlantic, to he greet
ed at last by Coney Island, elephant
and merry-go-rounds untwisting the
chains of harmony that tie "Daisy Bell”
and “Sweet Maria”
An hour is a reasonably long time for
a word to make this journey.
The messages from Japan go, as a
rule, tinder toe sea to Viadivostock,
whence, by the Great Northern lines,
they rush acroes Siberia to St. Peters-
The Two Navies.
Now York Sun.
A British naval officer who was recent
ly ia this city told some of his Ameri
can acquaintances what he believed to
be the reul causes of the friendly feel
ing between tho British and tho Amer
ican navy, which was recently mani
fested at London nnd at Boston, and
hns so often been exemplified at other
times and places. "The chief cause of
it,” ho said, “is tho English language.
Wo can sponk to the Americans in our
own tongue wherever wo meet them,
and thus wo are able to fraternize with
them more closely than with the offi
cers of any other navy in tho world. If
you had been cruising in distant seas,
as I have been for a lifetime, you would
understand this. In many a port be
tween tho oquator and the poles we
have lain near the battleships of other
powers without being able to speak to
a soul aboard of them; but tho sight of
the Yankee (lag at sea or in port was
always a godsend to us, for wo know
that every man thoro, from the cap
tain to tho crew, spoke the speooh ql'
our race, and that we could hail each
other in tho vernacular of good fellow
ship.
"1 was in tho Mediterranean, where
we heard a dozen jaraons, from Alge
rlan and Egyptian to Greek and Span
ish; l was in Chinese waters, where we
were surrounded by junks upon which
yellow Mongolians were cackling; 1 was
at one timn in servico in tho Indian
Ocean, as 1 afterwards was on the east
ern and western seaboard of Sooth
America, until I got the utmost abhor
renco of the fools who built tho Tower
of Babel and brought confusion into
speech. After such exporioncoH for
years you can’t imagine how I felt
when wo sailed into Boston Bay, and
heard on all sides the old familiar
tongue, and were welcomed hy com
rados of tho American navy. We
seemed to bo again in our own country
We felt at home. We gave back the
hearty cheer* which we got, and
touched glasses as if we had been life
long friends. It was all because wo
spoke the same language. Tho bund
between us trow out of our Bpoecli
tho American Commodore in China
spoke truly whoa lie said that ‘blood is
thicker than water,’ L would say that
language is stronger than either
them. Our crow found it out, too,
When our crews are on shoro leavo in
foreign ports, among Brazilian or Japs
unse or Hindoos, they can't gut along
With tho natives, but they are ready
for high jinks among tho Americans, us
you found out lust, year in New York
when the "Blake" was lore, uml as
Boston found out the other week when
she was thoro. It is all because the
language of tho United States is the
same as that, of England. The officers
and crews of the American naval ships,
who uro having a splendid time in Lon
don, will confirm every word I have
uttered when they give their side
the ease, or when they tell of the ox
pnrionces which they have had at oth
er times while cruising along coasts
stopping at porta where tho speech
was strange to them. There is not
doubt that the oft-repeated mauifeslu
lions of friendliness between the nu
vies of tho two powers are due to the
fact that both countries speak The same
language.”
The Disadvantages of Seeing-
ItoHton Transcript.
To get a really good education one
must be unfortunate in some way.
Those who saw the graduating cererno-
rios of tho Perkins Institution of tbe
Blind, and observed how solid and
thoughtful the young men nnd women
of this great school are, and nt the
same time re fleeted that their educa
tion is really so good, not merely be
cause of tbe excellence of tho school,
but also because tho students have had
great obstacle to overcome in gaining
must have wondered whether, aftei
all, it is so great a misfortune to bu
blind. Seeing somehow dissipates tbe
intelligence. No curiosity so idle as
the curiosity of tiie eyes. To see is 30
delightful a tiling that during a grout
part of our lifo wo see, not for tho sake
of knowing, but for tho sake of seeing;
and the seeing of u thing being past,
and gone, we think no more about it or
know nothing about it. Tho blind
person, lining under no necessity to sat
isfy this curiosity of the eyes, lias
much time to study in his own way,
and then to reflect deeply, and t hen to
linch hi < hold on tilings as lie has
learned. Thpro are many of us in thu
seeing world who live almost wholly
upon what we see- who are so ■ useup
ibln to beauty in things seen that our
minds must bo occupied with it long
after wo liuvo seen it; and often whon.
doubt, we should he learning or
every tendency

attack wherever there la a weak point. We
may escape many a fatal shaft hy keeping
ourselves well fortified with pure blood aod a

Ono Hummer, the wife of
known North Sider went to one of the
resorts. At the etui of a week she
found that tier black silk had given out,
so site wrote tier, husband to "llnd a
spool of it in the lower drawer of thu
bureau” and send it on. The dutiful
bn-.band spout three solid hours on a
hut day before ho found tho *miHsing
spool. Oi course, it was not where bis
wife laid said it was. Aftor ha had
changed his saturated linen tho man
went, down and sent the spool by regis
tered mail to his wife. That night it
struck him as absurd that she should
have put him to all that trouble, and
lie received to teach her a Iobkou. He
thought that with littlo effort sbg
might have found some »ilk (ft (1)0 sum
mer resort thut would liuvo answered
her pm pose. Well, he bought A grow
of spool silk artd put it in a drawer of
tils desk. Tho next time she left town
she found n spool of black silk under
her plate at the place whore she took
her first meal, and ever since thon aba
has been followed by a spool of silk,
oven to Europe. Wherever she may
stop she Ilnds tho spool nt her plate or
on iior dresser. 8ho lias loarnod the
lesson.
it looks as if tho days of iron were
nearly over. There is a shrinkage of
production as ugainHt stool every year.
Steel is as cheap, und sometimes cheap
or timn iron, while its durability is gen
erally showing itself us iiilliiitoly supe
rior. Scarcely a ship is now built of
iron plates. A striking instance of tho
superiority of stool was lately 'shown.
An Australian liner, built on the Tyne
from local stool plates, was run on the
reefs in a fog at Honolulu. For eigh
teen days she was rocked on thojagged
rocks until a tidal wave lifted her off.
All along tho bottom the plates on
both sides worn bent inward, the keel
bar being broken. Tbe plates would
only bond, however, not break; not a
single rivet had sprung nor had a drop
of water penetrated the bottom. The
vessel was brought hy her own engines,
just as she was, 10,000 miles to the
Tyne. There experts examined her,
and made much favorable comment on
the ductile aod durable properties of
steel as compared with iron. Iron
would infallibly have given way, while
steel stood tbe great strain intact.
Intemperance Among Women.
There is much said about the grow
ing habit of intemperance among wo
men: perhaps more than the facts
would warrant. If this habit exists it
is owing tQ the fact that women are of
ten forced to perform domestic and so
cial duties under great physical suffer
ing, and by partaking of liquors for
temporary relief or a little protraction
of strength, the habit becomes a neces
sity. If all ladies who suffer with the
complaints peculiar to their sex, would
take Dr. Fierce’s Favorite Prescription,
they would find nature’s restorati
and the evil results of pernicious di
and liquors would be avoided. For
