Strength Of Marine Gables.

submarine cable is by no means Of
uniform strength, the thickness depend
ing TO large extent on the depth Of
water. For instance, a shore end in the
shallowest water and subject to the great
est danger from the anchors of vessels
will be the heaviest portion, sometimes
going as high as twenty-sven tons to a
knot. In forming the shore end cable,
the core is covered with hemp and
double sheathing of iron wire, the inner
sheathing being of twelve wires of diam
eter of 0. l25 inch and the outer sheathing
fourteen wires, with diameter of 0.2SO
inch. The outside is covered with hemp
yarn and bituminous compound the
whole weighing about sixteen tons per
nautical mile. A portion of the interme-
diate cable is covered with twelves wires,
0.252 inch in diameter, weighing in all
five tons; another portion is covered with
twelve steel wires O. l65 inch in diameter,
weighing about three tons.
The deep sea is covered with twelve
steel wires. 0.0S4 inch in diameter and
again covered with tape and twenty hemp
cords, each of the twelve steel wires be
ing covered with tape and preservative
compound. The steel wire has a breaking
strain Of eighty four tons to the square
inch. By adding the hemp cords, the ten
sile strength is increased and the specific
gravity reduced so rs to enable the cable
TO be laid in very deep water. The total
breaking strain of this cable is about six
tons and 1t will bear about ten miles of
its own length in water.-Man ufacturers'

Why Americans Fall in Mexico.

MIR, Flower, who has visited Mexico,
tells me that it has great possibilitiei for
trade with this country. One of his trav-
cling companions explained to me how it
was that the Germans succeed in Mexico
when American fail He said that the
universal way of starting an American
house in Mexico is to take big shop, put
out a sign which reads "biggity," such as
Universal American Furnishing Asso-
citation for All Mexico" There is a presi-
dent, secretary, etc, all with titles, to the
amusement of foreigners. Failure is
pretty certain The German goes at it
differently. He comes to stay, an d does
Lot think of going across the ocean as an
american thinks of going home in rail
road car. So he settles down, marrles q
senorita, and attends to business. He be
comes identified with the people, who
have confidence in him. He does not talk
about Germany coming there some day
and taking the country anyhow, as many
Americans do, nor does he patronize the
people as an inferior race. He succeeds,
OF course. where an American who does
not copy his methods fails. New York

LOVE NOW.

The sanciry that is about the dead;
To make us love them more than late,
when here
Is 1t not well to find the living dear,
With sancity like this, ere they have fled,
The tender thoughts we nurture for a
loss
OF mother, friend or child-Ohi It were
wise
To spend this glory on the earnest eyes,
The longing heart, that feel lifes present
cross.
Give also mercy to the living here,
Whose keen-strung souls will Quiver at
your touch;
The utmost reverence is not too much
For eyes that weep although the lips may
sneer.

probably cover the bottom of the sea 10
the depths OF 315 feet; so that, taking the
average depth at Is, 200 feet, it would take
forty times as much land as exists above
sea level TO fill the oceanic depressions
The mean height of Europe has been
stated TO be go feet (Leitpoidt makes il
