On June 30 uccnrs the annual eight-oared boat race between the Yale and Harvard crews. 8. B. Ivos, of New York, is captain of the Yale crew, and E. F. Gallaudet, of Washington, is stroke. The game positions in the Harvard boat are filled by D. R. Vail and E. H. Fennessy, of Boeton. Yale has won ten of the seventeen annual races. it is regularity, system and a rigorous discipline from beginning to end. Work is performed with dispatch, for it is conducted on studied systematic principles. Each man has his allotted task, each is held responsible for the proper performance of that assigned him. There is no such thing as ignorance or forgetfulness on board ship. It is assumed that every man knows his duty, and if he pleads ignorance, he is sharply reminded that it is his "busi ness to know.” Similarly, forgetful ness is never admitted as an excuse for dereliction. “You have no right to forget,” is the invariable injunction. When a general order Is given every man knows at once whether or notit applies to him, and, if it does, he knows where to go and what to do. If any duty is found undone or poorly done the guilty person Is instantly known. Similarly if anything is found not as it should be the one re sponsible is at once taken to task for it. Some one is responsible for everything Of course, there are shirks and igno ramuses in the navy as elsewhere, but they get less encouragement and more spurring in the service than they do anywhere in tbe world. Alertness, promptness, dispatch, obedience, neat ness, professional knowledge and good memory are the seven cardinal naval virtues. Courage patriotism and en durance are taken for granted as nat ural possessions of those who wear tbe blue. Neatness, as said before, is character istic of tbe navy. It is shown in every thing. Nothing is permitted to lie around "adrift,” as the nautical expres sion puts it. A place for everything and everything in its place” is a maxim which bad its origin in the navy and there it is carried out to tbe utmost ex tent. For the benefit of the shiftless, who permit their belongings to get “adrift,” to get of their allotted places, there is an institution known as the "lucky bag.” The officers on duty, the master-at- arms, tbe ship’s corporal and other spe cial parties are constantly on the look out for stray articles and as soon as such are found they are promptly con signed to this “lueky bag,” which is in the possession of tlie master-at-arms; it is similar in its funtions to a dog pound. To reseue Ids property from this retreat the careless sailor must claim and prove possession, whereupon it is given to him, but not until he has undergone punishment for Ills shit't- lessness. Accordingly he must lose what he has permitted to get astray or suffer for its recovery. Many, of course, adopt the former alternative, and at certain periods there is an auction sale of unclaimed articles which have found their way into the “lucky bag,” und a great thing such an auction is. It is like u pawnshop sale of unredeemed pledges. Caps, shoes, underwear and other articles of attire; boxes, books and pictures; knives, pipes, curios; tbe greatest variety of possessions imagina ble. Jack takes a keen interest in all that goes on about him. He is a close ob- server and oft-times a wonderfully ac- curate critic. Visitors to the ship are closely eyed by him, and it does not take him long to form a pretty correct estimate of any one, whether visitor or not. There Is something about the sea life which sharpens a man's percep tions and quickens his judgement; the requirements of nautical emergencies call for prompt, correct action, and it is safe to say that in no career Is wise de cision so commonly combined with immediate action as In tbe navy. FIFTY THOUSAND A DAY. Wlieu sn<l lion the Crisp Bank of £ng- land Note» are Made. In a picturesque Hampshire nook in the valley of the river Test stands a busy mill from which is produced the paper whose crispness is music to the human ear all the world over. Since 1719 this Leverstoke mill has been busy in the manufacture of the Bank of England note paper, and at the present time about 50,000 of the coveted crisp pieces of paper are being) made there daily. To a careless observer there does not appear to be be muub difference be- tween a Bank of Engiaud note of the present day and one of those which were first issued toward the end of the seventeenth century, but when itatked into it will be fou d that the present note <s as regards the quality of the pa- 1K .nd the excellence of the engraved iting a much more remarkable pro duction. Tbe fact is, the Bank of England and forgers of false notes have been run ning a race—the bank to turn out a note which defies tbe power of the for ger to imitate it, and those nimble fin gered, keen-witted gentry to keep even with the bank. The notes now in use are most elabo rately manufactured bits of paper. The paper itself is remarkable in many ways; none other has that peculiar feel of crispness and toughness, while the eye (when it has satisfied itself with the amount,) may dwell with admira tion on the paper’s remarkable white ness. Its thinness and transparency are guards against two popular modes of forgery—the washing out of the print ing by turpentine and erasure with the knife. The wiremark, or watermark is an other precaution against counterfeiting, and is produced in the paper while it is In a state of pulp. In the old manu facture of bank notes this watermark was caused by an immense number of wires (over 2000), stitched and sewn to gether. Now it is tLgraved in a steel faced die, which is afterwaids harden ed and is then used as a punch to stamp the pattern out of plates of sheet brass. The shading of tho letters of the watermark increases the difficulty of imitation. The paper Is made entirely from pieces of new linen and cotton and the toughness of it can be roughly guessed from the fact that a single bank note will, wheu unsized, support the weight of thirty-six peunds, while, when it is sized, you may lift fifty-six pounds with it. Few people would imagine that u Bank ef England note was not of tbe same thickness all through. It is not, though. The paper is thicker in the left haud corner to enable it to take a better and sharper impression of the vignette there, and it is also considera bly thicker in the dark shadows of the the center letters and under the figures at the ends. Counterfeit notes are of only one thickness throughout. The printing is done from electro types, the figure of Britannia l>eing the design of Maclaise, tbe late Royal ac ademician. Even tbe printing ink is of special make and is manufactured at the bank. Comparing a genuine with a forged note one observes that the print on tbe latter is generally bluish or brown, while on tbe real note it is a velvety black. Tbe chief ingredients used in making the ink are linseed oil and the charred husks and some other portions <>f Rhen ish grapes. The notes are printed at the rate of 3000 an hour at Napier's steutu piess, and the bank issues 9,000,000 ot them in a year, which represents something like £300,000.000 in bard cash—London Answers.
