engine of unsightly prop.irtions and is
kept encased iu glass. It wasinvanted
by Col Joho Stevens, and is a reminder
f the days when old Colonel Stevens
and Robert Fulton
gaged in trying

siaii of boats. It was a hot race Us) tviicitl American. "
i - -
tween thes two giaols aa to which
would be I be first on the river with his
steamboat. '
Robert Fulton started a ferryboat
line between Jersey City and this city.
It consisted of one boat. Stevens fol-
7
lowed with a boat from Hoboken in
1811, but was forced to withdraw, as it
interfered with Fulton's fpeciaj . priv
ilege. Thereupon the Colonel being
driven from the river, ran his boat to
New Brunswick, and afterward to
Philadelphia.
The engine of this boat Is the relic
that is now treasured at Stevens' In
stitute. ' It is a nigh pressure condens
ing engine, water tubular boiler and
twin screw. It drove the Colonel's
boat at the rateof eighroilos an hour,
which was considered, perfectly mar
velous. '
One feature of the mactine is that
several of its joints are made of mal
leable iron, which was rnisly used in
those days. Attention is particularly
called to the fact by tbe admirers of
Stevens that it is a propeller engine,
and that this method of propulsion, af
terhaving been laid aide fr more
thkn half a century, ba revived, arid
now has almost entirely superceded
the side-w heeler in ocean navigation.
The old engine is a great curiosity to
mechanics. It ba traveled about con
siderably, and everywhere has been
critically examined.
It was on exhibition in 1851 t the
World's Fair, and again in 1876 it was
painted up and taken to tbe Centennial
where it was awarded a place of honor
in Machinery Hall.
Mr. Cleveland not daring to vote in
eloquence against . great Cbauocey,
merely arose and said ; .
."If what has been said of me is true,
I occupy a prouder position than I
ever dreamed of occupying."

WAsniNOTON, Oct. 81. The census
office to-day announced tbe population
of the United States as shown by tbe
first count of persons and families, ex
clusive of white persons In Indian Ter
ritory, Indians on reservations and iu
Alaska, to be 72,480,540. These figures
may be slightly changed by later and
more exact compilations, but such
changes will not be materia'. In 1880
the population was 50,155,788. The
Increase of the population in the 10
years intervening, was 12,344,797, and
the per cent age of tbe Increase was
24.5. In 1870 the population was slat
ed as 88,559,371. According . to these
figures tbe absolute Increase in tbe de
cade between 1880 and 1890, was 11,
607, 412, and the per eenUge of in
crease was 80.08.
The population of Virginia is placed
at 1,648,911, an increase of 136,366 dur
ing the past ten years ; that of Sorth
Carolina, 1617,340, an increase since
1880 of 217,590.

The decrease in the birth rate of
France, with its effect on tbe future
population of that country, hat long
been a subject of debate among its
public men. Statistics have shown
that this decrease baa been going . on
for years. It now turns out tbnt Eng
land and Wales are Iu a similar condi
tion. Tbe returns of the Registrar
General for England aod Wales show
that tbe excess of births ever deaths
has beon steadily declining for several
years. In 1889 the excess was 8n7,
224, wbilo, accorJing to the results tf
the last two cenr.us years, tho Increase
should bare been 89,423. The birth
rite was also remarkable low, being 25
per thousand below the average of tbe
previous decade, while the marriage
rate has not corresponded to tbe in
creased prosperity of the country.
These statistics, with tbe large emigra
tion, show, In the opinion of the New
York News, that In time there will oease
to be an increase in the population of
Great Brit Ian, providing the rate of de
crease in birth continues. But Eng
land has more population now than
she can well support and this may be
Nature's way of adjusliog herelf to
man's requirements.

The art of door banging b one that
apparently comes by divine right to
every human, being, and that art is
more carefully developed than many
other natural gifts that would, with
proper cultivation, enable the happy
possessor to make qulta as much noise
in the world and with leas incoavenieoce
and annoyance to others. '
Most booses are peculiarly adapted
for the display of tbe door bamgert
ceaseless activity, a fact which tbe mad
who set the fashion for portieres had
doubtless in coruddr&tion when be first
made np bis mind to introduce
innovation. To him Indeed we should
be very grateful, for the fewer doors
there are the less likelihood of and opt
portunity for such Wagnerian discord.
The man or woman who would not
take your life, even under the greatest
provocation, does not hesitate to In
porn your hearing, and the worst of
this sort of thing is that we meet with
it generally at the hands of those whd
are nearest and dearest.
The relative who is np first in the
iBoming-awell, that's the one who has
the best slibw at the door, and the arms
of Morpheus 'most exert double;
horse power pressure If they would
guide your slumbers successfully
through that reverberating bang. It is
tame that in sickness an effort is asnaflr
made to subdue this peculiar instinet,
or to repress this native talent i but 1mm
hold, when tbe sofferer arvadoseent, -the
pent np energy once more displays
itself In the direction from which It
momentarily lapsed, and tbe muaio of
the present once more offers odds tot
any that the great German masters ead
originate.
People who are evolutionists' can
doubtless trace the early development
of his historio disposition to bang.
They will point to fur off ages when '
man in bis natural state used to doss
his Jaws with a far echoing snap ttporj
the human flesh ho devoured; to a lit
tie later period, when in a more en
lightened state, he swung heavy prison
doors upon his captives ; to even a later
age, when, his first musical ntUmt
beginning to blossom, he heralded to
his victims' their approaahing death
through the enlivening strains of the)
tom-tom; ' ' " .. -'
' Now In this age of seeming oultiva
tion the foregoing, methods of pro
claiming oar immediate personality are;
happily forbidden, but there is no law,
written or unwritten, against thai eviL
Which is apparently inherent and IrracuV
caL But perhaps ihat Utopia, toward
which present writers declare we are
progressing, win be a land innocent oi '
other than tent like accommodations
for family life, whore, consequently,
the restlessness which has hitherto
found vent in door banging may spend
itself In pursuits which will be bene
ffcial, not annoying, to the bumad

Tommy T one year resolved thai
he would keep the Fourth of July for
three successive days, and his chum,
Rodney, agreed to help him. A leaf
from Tommy's diary will explain, with
sufficient clearness, why they abandoned
the idea:
"July 5: Sat up so late last night that
I didn't wake till 9. Mamma let me .
steep. Said, when I asked her why,
that she wished next year Td go to
sleep July 8 and not waks till today. I
wonder why Meant to go orer to Rod

the powder went Into ary cheek, and
my two fingers smart so I eant use
'em. Very hard to write with my left
hand.
' "Afternoon: Rodney's mother has
come over to see what mamma puts on
for bruises. She says Rodner'a black
