THE ROMANCE or THE TELEGRAPH.

Some Of the Odd Difficulties Of Operating
n Line Through Queer Countries.
A good deal of romance hovers around
the mean by which the worlds news 10
| gathered. The speed and accuracy with
which telegraph messages are trans
mitted between the uttermost parts OF
the earth Is marvellous when the coudi-
tions uader which they are sometimes
transmitted are considered. ~
The Indo-E European telegraph line
offers a good illustration, 1t runs from
London to Lowestoft on the east coast
of England. 1t then dips under the sea
to Emden, ON the German coast, whence
it passes through Germany to the Rus
sian frontier. From this point the wire
passes by way of Warsaw, Rowno, Odes-
sa, the Caucasus, and Tifiis to Persia, and
by Tauris to Teheran, the capital Of the
shah's queer domain. There it joins
the Indian government line which runs
from the Persian capital to Bushire on
the Persian gulf. Thence the wires run
through Baluchistan, and complete the
route by connecting at Karachi, in
northern India. The operation Of this
imm~ensestretch of line, passing through
countries Of such varying climates and
general characteristics, is obviously one
Of much difficulty. On the NOW
swept steppes of Russia the wires are
sometimes snapped like thread by the
rapid flight of focks of wild geese. The
poles are cut down and made into fire.
wood by the nomad tribes Of the eau
casian districts, and the cunning inn
keepers Of Georgia seek to boom their
post horse trade by deliberately creating
faults in the wires. In certain parts Of
the mountainous regions Of Asia the
maintenance of the solitary line involves
no little personal risk and hardship to
the staff hands. Communication Is
often cut off by avalanches in the o
tain districts. and the work of repairing
after a snowfall of five or six feet is
no light matter.
These mountain stations are provi-
stoned with several months supplies be-
fore the winter sets in, as the staff will
be in touch with the rest Of the world
by the wire only until the spring
weather opens out the passes. In these
supplies are always included q liberal
allowance of books and games where
