WILL G|RD|E THE GLOBE
SOMETHING ABOUT THE GREAT
CABLE PROJECT.
What has Been Accomplished in Half
a Century, and Plans Made for the
Future.

\ cable will be laid next summer
from Scotland to Iceland by way of
the Farce Islands. The Icelandic Far
lament has voted a subsidy to the en-
terprise. 1t is believed that Great
Britain will connect Iceland with Brit
ish America by cable, so as to give her
another cable route to America.
Less than fifty years ago the first
cable was laid between Great Britain
and the American continent. Now a
cable is laid every year. The last
transatlantic cable was laid by the
Commercial Cable company in 1894
but many smaller cables have been laid
since. Just now the interest of the
world, or so much of it as is absorbed
by the cable question, is centered in
the connection between the American
continent and the far west under the
Pacific Ocean. Great Britain has un-
dertaken to lay a cable to Australia
by way of the Fiji Islands. At the
same time two American companies
are struggling for the privilege of lay
ing a cable from the western coast to
Japan and China by way of Hawaii.
When one of these Pacific cables has
been completed, the earth will be Cir
died. This contamination has been
slow in coming. 1t is promised al a
time when Tesla claims that he will
be able soon to telegraph to any part
of the world or every part of the world
without cables or even land wires.
There are about $4,000 miles of ca
bles, which have cost about $200,OO0,-
600. These figures are only approx
mate, because no one knows exactly
the condition of all the cables. Tn
doubleday some useless and abandoned
cables of the world are controlled by
Great Britain. and even American Gu
bes make a first landing on British
American soil. OF the ten trans-Atian-
tic cables in active use. not one lands
in the United States. Those which do
not land on English possessions have
their termini on French Island. 1t
has been said that i'm case of war with
the United States, Great Britain would
have an advantage through her
control of cables. She would not con-
troll the French cables. and it is NOT
likely that she would control the Ca
madam cables long.
The route of every cable on the bed
of the ocean has been marked and is
mapped carefully. If there were trouble
with Great Britain it would be a COM
paratively simple thing to send re-
pair ship out to grapple for the cables
and cut them. It would be difficult
to patrol each line. and it is altogether
likely that a conflict between Great
Britain and the United States if it ev-
err came to serious blows would be set
tied without interference from the ca
ble.-Leslie's Weekly.

Not u Success, Evidently.

1t seems that acetylene gas, not
outstanding the effort that has been
made to bring it to the front as an
illuminant, has not been the blooming
success that its projectors have claimed
for it, and we note from the Associated
Press dispatches, that suits have been
instituted by the receiver of the
Philadelphia Acetylene Light, Heat
and Power Company of that city
against stockholders to collect such
stock as is not fully paid, in order to
meet the liabilities of the company.
The probability is that the stock
holders will contest the assessment.
1t is further stated in the dispatches,
that preliminary injunction restrain
ing the Liquefied Acetylene Supply
Company from erecting buildings at
East Lebanon, Pa, for the manu-
facture of acetylene gas was granted
on the 30th ult. The location of the
plant is in thickly populated neigh
borhOod, and certain of the residents
therein claim that the location of the
plant at the point decided on would
be dangerous.

Society Conducts IA Curious
Business.

Some time in May a cargo of girls
will be shipped from London to Aus
-raIia. Its rather a curious business.
Of course women are always in de-
mand in new country. There was a
time IN our history when cargoes of
Young women were brought over from
the old country to become the wives of
coahists.
Ia smaIlway this curious traffic is
.dI carried on There is in Great
Britain an emigration association
which sends young women to Canada
British Columbia and Australia. They
must be unmarried, healthy and of
good character. and for such girls
there is a hearty welcome. The Klon-
dixie would welcome a consignment.
Western Australia reports a girl
famine. The general agent Of this
colony has appealed to the association
fora cargo of girls, and one is being
made up to sail in April. 1t will con-
,i,t of fifty women between eighteen
and forty, carefully selected invoice
sent in charge Of a matron.
The colony pays the railroad fare OF
the migrants to London, pays their
board while there awaiting sailing day
and provides them free passage by
steamer to FremantIe. When they get
there they find a government depot
with another matron.
The Canadian government does not
pay the fare of women immigrants,
but is glad to get them, and the emf
grant association frequently sends
out small consignments.--The Sunny

Feeling Tribute to His Memory bv a
Friend.
On the morning OF April 9th, lust as
day was dawning, the spirit of our kind
and noble friend, Mr.. II. II. Mott took
It's flight from earth to the beautiful
realms of heaven, to dwell forever more
with the blessed Saviour he so much
loved Just before he breathed his last
earthly breath one who was standing
near saw bright heavenly smile illumi-
nate his face, and never did the writer
see more peaceful or pleasant face at
ter death. He bore his sufferings dur
ing his entire illness without a murmur.
He seemed to realize that his end was
near and that he would soon rest in the
arms of his Saviour His true and fond
wife never tired or faltered IN her devo-
tons. No one ever had better care or
attention. Our dear departed friend
was "A years old last November. MANY
were the tokens Of love and respect in
the way Of floral offerings, his casket
being almost covered with beautiful
flowers.
MIR. Mott was an honest, Jealous
christian, and now he is number
ed with the blessed around the
throne OF his Savior. He was a good
neighbOr and devoted husband Dear
wife, grieve no more for your loving
husband, for he is happy now, and am
sure you will meet him at last, where
parting will be no mLre.
Farewell, our blessed friend,
TO heaven you have gone.
We hope az last to meet you there
And wear a golden crown.
A FRIEND.
