RESEMBLANCE TO NOTED MeN

A Natural Gltt Whose Cultivation is Likely
to Prove Somewhat Expensive
Almost every family has a member
who boasts of q resem blance to some
celebrity and cultivates it most as
siduously by copying the peculiarities
of dress or manner of the statesman,
/, warrior or preacher whom he is sup
posed to look like. twenty years ago
there were hundreds Of men at large
in the country who, to use current
expression, Travelled on their rescm-
blanca to- Henry Ward Beecher. This
was by no means difficult thing to
do, and as general thing it was only
necessary for man to shave his face
clean, let his hair grow long, and put
on a SLOUGH hat aud long frock coat to
have his acquain tances discuss in his
prese nee the extraordinary resem b!ance
which he bore to tic Brooi:lyn pastor.
There are a few men, cnvied of all
their fellows, who bear some rcsem-
blance to the great Napoleon, and
several thousand more vino either trv
to look like the Corsican warrior or
else wish they did, and, prior to Sedan,
an immense number of Frcnchmen
made themselves up in imitation OF
Louis Napoleon. As 4 general thing
it costs a man great deal OF money to
look like anyone as great as Napoleon
or as distinguished as the Prince Of
Wales, because a rasem blance OF this
sort is sure to produce vanity, AMI that
weakness makes its possessor willing
prey to the great army of thirsty and
impecunious genials who are always
ready to profit by it. But once in a
while a chance resemblance becomes
source of revenue, as in the case of the
woman who has been engaged to as
sumo the role of Queen Victoria in the
Barnum show. The advertisement for.
some one to fill this part brought to
light hundreds of women who look
more or less like the English queen,
and from among them one was selected
who might easily pass as her twin
sister. Among the applicants were sew
eral of the craulss who bob up now and
then and contrive to secure little
notoriety by claiming relationship to
the royal family, but The place was
given to d woman who made ITO such
pretensions. N, Y, Sun.

A NETWORK OF OCEAN GABLES

Submarine Wires Abound Everywhere, In
tho World Except In American Waters.
T, The world Is now SO Melted with
cables, great and small and new ones
are laid so frequently that there is
much demand for tho services of the
cable-laying ships. A l'stof the wards
cables, long and short, set down in
tabulated form, occupies twenty large
and closely printed pages. The cable
map of the world prepared by the
United States navy department shows
that the Mediterranean is sthickly net
ted with cables west Of Malta. Soils
the north Atlantic between the thirty
eighth and ffty-fifth parallels The
North sea, Che Red sea, and the Ara
bian sea have many cables. The only
greatunabridged spaces are the Pacific,
the south Atlantic, and the great
stretch of the Indian ocean between
Madagascar and Australia. There is
no considerable cable north of Stock
holm or south Of Nelson, New Zealand.
The Black sea is completely girdled by
land lines and crossed by one cable.
The Cult of Mexico is crossed. though
not at its widest, by several cables.
and the waters of the West Indies are
becoming thickly Melted with short
cables VI =.
Coast communications in the United
States and Europe are maintained
mainly by land lines, but in Africa,
South America and much Of Asia the
same thing is maintained BY means Of
long or short cable loops, It thus hap
pens that this country, although more
thoroughly equipped with Geographic
lines than any other in the world, has q
comparatively small amount of8cable1
within her own waters. This may per-
haps account an part for the fact that
cable making is only just beginning to
be an important industry in the United
States.
The navy Of the United,S States, how
ever has done o vast deal far tile art of
cable laying. Commander Sigsbee has
inyentedza highly effective sounding
machine for ascertaining the depth Of
the occan-an absolutely necessary
preliminary to cable laying. Lieut.
Conmandcr Il. Tanneraof the navy,
has devised an ingenious case for deep,
sea thermometers and also improved q
thermometer frame Invented by an
Italian naval officer The navy de
partment has also issued an elaborate
treatise on cable laying, and made
soundings for the proposed Pacific ca
