The cable will revolutionize the speed OF
submarine messages. The ordinary speed
transmission Is about eighteen words min

adopted will raise the speed to thirty words
per minute over the new cable.
The steamer Faradav. when she left Lon
don carried 800 miles of insulated wire. She
will lay 100 miles of this outward from Bal
lingskelligs Bay, on the Irish coast. Then
she will cross the ocean to Foxbax, Canso, n.
g., and place 400 miles there. The latter sec
ton will be buried in shallow water.
The Faraday will return to London then
for the remaining 1900 miles of material, and
start on her second run to the westward. She
will begin her second voyage on June l. and
1t is expected that the ends will be joined and
the cable given the power Of speech by June

The new cable will be about 2l00 mile
long. 1t will contain more than l, 100, ,O0

The popular idea of Siberia, accord
ing to the Chicago Record, is that it is
barren desert extending from the
frozen ocean of the north to the burn
ing sands of the tropics, but this is II
great mistake. The population OF Rus
STA in Asia is nearly $4,000, 900. There
are several cities with population ex-
ceeding 5O,0 900. The agricultural pro-
ducts reported, which constitute only
a very small portion of the whole, are
valued at an average OF $40, 900, 900 It
wear, the output OF the mines exported
is valued at upward of $40, 900, 600
annually, and the furs, fish, skins
and other products that come into
European Russia from Siberia are
worth So, 900, 900 or Sc, 900, 900 more.
But this population is scattered over
an enormous area; it is only partially y
civilized; the greater portion of the
country does not expect or aspire to
the production of anything more than
is necessary for local consumption !;
the means of communication aud trans
portation are lacking, and, rs pro-
ductive industry is measured in the
European countries and America, it

The Swiss Government has, for the
last twenty years, caused observations
to be made through its forestry sta
tions on the temperature of the air, of
the trees and the soil in the forests
These observations show that the TEN
perature i'll the forests is always below
the temperature outside. The tenn
perature also varies according to the
trees composing the forests. \ beech
forest is always cooler than fores
OF larch. As to the trunks of the
trees, they are always colder than the
surrounding air. Regarding the tenn
perature of the soil, it is found that
in the forest the temperature is in
vsrisbly below that OF the air. Out.
side the forest the soil is always warmer
than the air in summer and colder in

At One Time IL is Insurgents and The n
Again it Is PeixOtO's Troops.

Advices have reached Blenos Ayres, Brazil =.
showing that the forces OF President PeixOto
have captured Paranagua from the insur-
gents.
II now turns out that the reports set aiOat
by rebel sympathizers that Admiral Mello hal
'aptured Rio Grande city were far from true.
The land force OF rebels which WAS attack
ing the city was caught between two fires Of
the re-enforcements ordered to Pelotas by
Peixoto, which arrived under the command
OF Colonel Teller to aid General Baceller,
who commanded the besieged garrison.
A battle followed, In which the rebel forces
were totally defeated. The insurgents then
re-embarked on the warships, leaving behind
three cannons and quantity OF munitions on
the beach. Many OF the men were wounded.
Admiral Mello's feet then left the bay. II
stopped awhile TO lombard Altalaya and Ell
Faros, and then sailed southwark.

David Dudley Field was born in Haddam.
Conn, Feb. l3. 1906. He graduated from
Williams in 1925. He studied law in Albany
with Harmanus Bleecker, but after n few
months removed to New York, where he com
pleted his studies. He persistently opposed
the pro-slaVery policy. until the nomina ton
OF John c. Fremont in 1855. whom he sup
ported in the presidential canvass OF that
year.
During the civil war he was staunch ad-
herent OF the administration. and Was active
with voice, pen and purse in aid OF his coun-
try.
In 1876 he filed the unexpired term in con-
gress Of Smith Ely, who had been made
Mayor Of New York city.
In 1850 the completed Codes OF Civil and
Criminal Procedure" was submitted by him
to the New York legislature. Both these
codes have been enacted into laws.
The radical design Of the new system Of
civil procedure was to obliterate the distinc-
tion between the forms and action and be
tween legal and equitable suits. 50 that all
the rights OF the parties in relation to the
subject Of ligitation can be determined in one
action, instead Of dividing them between dif-
ferent suits.
This system has been adopted in "a OF the
states and territories, and is the basis Of the
legal reform established by the new iudica-
tuEo hct III EHHialu, anu VI tue lTatlh't IN
several OF the English colonies, including
India
Eighteen OF the states and territories have
adopted his code OF criminal procedure.

J. Field, associate Justice of the United States
Supreme Court, is now living. Cyrus, the

David Dudley Field was appointed in 1857
