The /" Life - OF Submarine Cables.

The English Money Market Review
says that fact Of some importance as
tending to, if it does not entirely, dis
pc. the prevailing impression that the
ellie +" of a submarine cable is of a
limited nature was lately mentioned by
Mr.. John Fender, M. P, at the meet
ing of the Eastern Telegraph Company.
He stated that the various sections of
the Eastern system with the exception
of shore end of short line at Lisbon
which was undergoing repair, were in
perfect working order. But Of far
greater Importance, as affecting the fu
ture of submarine cable enterprise, was
his announcement that the Suez and
Alden section, which was laid in COM
paratively warm water, and improved
insulation by no less than thirty eight
per cent, and the other cables Of the
Eastern Company from forty-fve to
seventy-seven per cent. in insulation
power, which is of course the chief ele-
ment in estimating their capacity for
the transmission of messages. Mr.
Fender further stated that the cables
longest laid have improved the most.

The Largest Fine Ever Paid by Thief
for Larceny.
From the San Francisco Call.

Charles Pfeiffer, who was arrested on
last Thursday for having committed
numerous larcenies, and who on last
Monday was allowed to plead guilty to
six charges of petit larceny, appeared
for sentence in the Police Court yes
terday morning. On each and every
charge be was sentenced to pay fine
of 5000 or suffer 100 days imprison-
ment, each term to follow the previous
one. The sentences amounted in the
aggregate to 81, 200 or twenty months
imprisonment in the county jail.
After the sentences had been pro-
nounced, the prisoner expressed a de-
termination to go to Jail, as he con-
cluded that the penalty was too severe;
but he subsequently recalled his deter
n1ination, and, sending for Detective
Rogers, who had arrested him, an
nounced his intention to go to the Ger
man Savings Bank, on California street,
and from there draw sum of money
sufficient to meet the pecuniary por-
ton of the penalty. He was taken
out by the officer named, drew the
amount of the fine, and paid the same
to Mr.. Martin, Clerk of the Court, who
at once paid it over to the City Treas
urer. This is the largest fine ever paid
by thief for petit larceny.

the latest fashion. Finally she took
out sheet of paper, pressed it
down on her French writing board,
examined the point of her pencil, and
wrote her autograph, "God is
love and truth. L. n. Bridgman;" and
then from her needle-case and spool
box produced cambria needle and
fine cotton. and showed me how she
threaded needle, which was done by
holding the eye against the tip of her
tongue, the exquisite nicely of touch nj
her tongue guiding her to pass the
thread through. It was done in an in.
slant, though it seemed impossible to
do It at all, and then she presented me
the threaded needle triumphantly, hav-
ing secured it by slipping knot.
After descending to the parlor, she
told me how kind it was in DR.. Howe TO
fit her up such nice, pretty room, and
then must go into, the school-room,
whittier she led me by the hand, and
introduced to several of her friends
among the pupils, and when l took my
depart re she would have the teacher

The last report of DR.. Howe gives
some particulars relating to the way in
which he brought this very interesting
girl into communication with her fellow
creatures. making her zone of the
human family" patiently, laborously,
loving going over tedious process,
month after month. and year after year,
until she became what she is. She has
a home during the cold weather at the
institution; she earns ga little money
by making head baskets" etc., and has
the interest of $4,000, which was
bequeathed to her by two friends,
mother and daughter; "but still she

Restoring the Legibility of Submerged
Writing

A letter that had been submerged in
the wreck of the Schiller, was, when
found, quite illegible, but was restored
by a process described as follows, by
Mr.. Garside, in the Pharmaceutical
Journal: The letter was carefully
brushed over with sulphocyanide Of
potassium Zone in 20), and then, still
damp, held over dish containing hot
hydrochloric acid. The writing was
thus developed Of deep red Color
The rationale OF the process is this:
The iron of the ink is precipitated as
peroxide upon the fbres of the paper,
and remains when all other coloring
matter are washed away. Being in an
insoluble form, however, no effect is
produced by re-agent until the fumes
of the acid have rendered it soluble.
Probably ferrocyonide of potassium
would answer as well or better than
sulphocyanide.
