IN ANOTHER column we publish a letter on the
subject of a Submarine Telegraph, from MIR.
Audley Coote, of Tasmania, which has been
obligingly placed at our disposal by its recipient,
Hon. l.. s. Cleghorn. From the letter in ques-
ton, the public of Hawaii nei will be glad to
learn that active steps are being taken to provide
the people of these islands with ~telegraphic COM
munication with the outer world by means of a
Submarine Cable. \ point on these islands,
probably at Honolulu, will be selected, according
to the cable scheme in question, as an intermedi-
ate station, ON terra trDaa, along the proposed
line of Submarine Gable destined to connect New
Zealand and Australia on the one hand with San
Francisco on the other. Thus, if this scheme be
carried out, the Hawaiian Islands, with an inter
mediate terra tfrBla station, will become tele-
graphically united with the rest of the world. Of
course, so far, there is no positive certainty that
the scheme in question will be ultimately realized.
All that can be said about it at present is, that it
is ON the tGpis. and that there is good reason to
hope that it will one day become a fat 0oconpEi
The sooner the better, say We, with all our heart,
although a heavy additional expense will thus
as q matter of course, have to be incurred by the
Honolulu Press, this journal included, in order
to provide the Hawaiian public with telegraphic
news 1t is an expense, however, which we shall
never grudge; on the contrary, the sooner such
an outlay becomes necessary, the more gratifying
such a circumstance shall be for us, as thereby
our hopes of seeing this Kingdom Geographically
connected with the outside world, shall have been
realized. 1t would be a mistake to pretend that
q very great gain can ever result to the under
taking from kilograms sent from our islands,
although we fully expect that a comparatively
large amount will be found to be paid here for
telegraphic communication with other parts of
the world. However, we believe that, on the
other hand, the general advantages of trade and
throughout the world will be greatly
enhanced by the inclusion of this Hawaiian
Kingdom in the cosmopolitan Geographic net
work already existing by land and sea. 1t is a
fact beyond question that all the resources of our
islands would thus be placed within reach,
almost instantaneously, of the people of all the
rest of the Geographically united earth and this
is a condition of things by which the world at
large would be even greater gamers than our
selves. Thus, for instance, a ship, sailing say,
from New York or London, for China or Japan,
is forced to put in to Honolulu by stress of cir
cumstances. At present, the monthly steamer
mail or casual sailing vessels alone serve as a me-

That Meteor.

The meteor, on the evening of Dec. 2lsf,
was seen apparently from Maine to Califor
MIA across the middle belt of the United
States, but what became of it? One paper IN
Ford county, declares it fell in the woods
within that county. A Missouri paper thus
winds up the career of the gay celestial voy-
ager:
That meteor was observed at Mexico, No,
and also al Webster Groves, near st. Louis,
by daughter of Prof Tlce, and also al point
on the Missouri Pacific road by Mr.. Studley,
The time of observation was ascertalned by
the passage of "a freight train at Webster
Groves, and from the time II landed in Iowa
but few seconds interviewed. The flight of
the meteor aud its landing were observed by
some school girls returning from a spelling
school. The meteor struck the earth, plowed
up the snow for several rods and after rico
Chetting and bounding along for some dis.
lance buried itself IN the ground where the
fragments were found.

whole attention for the next five minutes was
directed toward the unTuly animal but he
noticed that the tail of the meteor, as it is
called, or, more properly, the combustion oc-
casionei by the immense velocity with which
the stone travelled through our atmosphere
remained visible fer about two minutes. From
the briliancy and area of the fire surround

that the acrolite must have been of immense

The trick known as the basket trick"
which MIR Heller introduces as the las fea-
ture of his performance al the Wonder Thea
ter, eXcites a good deal of surprise, as 1t is
ONLY natural it should. The conditions of the
trick are simply as follows large basket
is brought out and placed IN full view upon
bench supported on four primitive wooden
legs, and leaving a space between the basket
and the floor There seems no possible way
by which human being once in could get
ont of that basket without being seen. The
basket placed by Mr.. Heller and his assistant,
Mr. Heller next brings forward a pair of
oyeralls which cover him TO the neck, and
which have no outlet AT the ends of the sleeves
or legs When the overalls are drawn on and
hood drawn over Mr.. Hellers head and al
tached to the main garment by strings, there
remains no outlet for So much as finger of
the performer TO get through. But as Mr.

purpose of DOMINIC his garment he remem
| hers that he is in New York instead of Aus
l,ralia-that is his carelessly stated excuse
and a screen. which reaches up to the pei
formers neck, is placed behind the basket,
and the performer retres behind this and eff.
feels The change. So far as one notices, his
head does not once disappear during the time
he is EMPLOYED In drawing on the overalls.
Tho last vision one has is of Mr. Ieler's own
face disappearing in the ample hood and i'm
medIa,ely he steps out from behind the screen,
and. with the help of an assistant, climbs into
the basket, the lid of which is closed upon
him and locked. As far rs the human eye
can discover this is Mr.. Heller who has just
gone into the basket, hut IN the same instant
almost before the cover is down-Mr Hell.
Ter makes his appearance in ordinary even

and walks down the aisle, inqurIng what
