A CABLE VIEW.

(San Francisco Chronicle)
As this journal suggested at the
time, John w. Fosters mission to Ha-
waii had to do with cable franchises
and not with annexation. Yesterday
Mr.. Foster, who has returned from
the islands, admitted the fact and let
it be known that he had failed to Sc
cure an exclusive contract, by which
the Pacific Cable Company hoped not
only to build the Hawaiian line, but to
extend it to Japan and Australia.
From the independent course taken
by Mr.. Dole and his Cabinet in this
matter they would appear to be salts
fed that if they cannot get a cable
from one company on their own terms
they can do so from another. Not very
long ago Hawaii was willing to con-
cede almost anything to anybody to
get on the electrical circuit of the
worlds business and daily news, but
now, though the necessity remains,
the period of eager anxiety seems to
have passed. Evidently the Govern
ment thinks that Hawaii is to have a
cable anyhow.
We cordially hope that the theory
will be justified by the event, as the
value of such a means of communica-
ton to this country would be very
great. Among other things a cable is
essential to that control of the Ha-
waiian islands which the ST. Louis
platform calls for, and this of itself is
enough to inspire the friends of the
project with confidence in the favor
of the next President and Congress.

There are many kinds of cut
glass sold, and, to the ordinary
purchaser, one make is as good
as another. The value of the
pieces depends, of course, on
the cutting. If the edges are
sharp you may depend upon it
that the quality is good.
Among all the makes of cut
glass in the United States but
one firm sells enough to war;
rant their having a ware room
in New York. Everyone in
the States knows which firm
that is-DorAinger. In the
large cities, from Boston south
to Richmond and west to
Denver, the purchaser puts
but one cut glass question to a
salesman: us it DorA nger's?'
The make is so we'll known
that the name sells it. Our
stock in this line is entirely
from the Dorfinger factory.
Other dealers think it is the
best, the buyers think it the
best, then why should not we?
Other makes may be as good;
they are certainly no better.
Cut glass has been looked
upon as essentially a luxury of
the wealthy class, but our cut
glass at cut prices-both cut
makes it possible for the
middle class to own pieces of
various sizes and shapes.
We have also a desire to

REAL COOPERATION.

The plan instituted upon the main
line of the Illinois Central Railroad
some time ago by President Stuyve-
SAINT Fish, allowing employees to pur-
chase stock of the company and thus
secure personal interest in the prop
erty, has proved an unqualified sue
cess. Many of the employees have
awaited themselves of the opportunity,
and good results are shown by the in
creased attention these men paw to
their work and the greater interest
they take in the affairs of the road
The same plan is being introduced by
the company upon the newly acquired
Louisville line formerly the Chesa-
peake, Ohio and Southwestern) with
gratifying results. Circulars have
been sent out and many of the en-
ployes are quick to take advantage of
the favorable offer.
Under the terms shares OF stock, the
par value of which is 500 and the
present market value $92, can be pur-
chased on installments of SIS monthly.
-Four per cent interest is paid upon de-
posts and the per cent dividends are
paid on the stock, with prospects of
higher dividends in the near future.
Shares can be bought outright in any
number for spot cash, but only one

to have large percentage of the Hi

Capt. Slocum of SIoop Spray

Word has been received from Capt.
Joshua Slocum of the little sloop yacht
Spray, which craft left Gloucester more
than year ago for a trip around the
world, of his arrival at the Pacific end of
the straits of Magellan April 8.
Capt. Slocum has been at this point
once before, but on March 3 took a heavy
northwest gale, and was swept off to the
leeward down the coast toward Cape
Horn. March 4, 5, 6 and he was doub-
ling Cape Horn.
The gale that tossed him about also
stirred up sunken ship, whose cargo
was cast upon the beach, and he loaded
the Spray up from the wreckage. On the
Sth he got into Cockburn channel, and
worked into the Straits of Magellan, short
of sails.
He writes that he is busy making sails
for the Spray, and when finished will push
along the voyage. [Cape Ann Advertiser
