Washington, May 26-Late this
afternoon it was ascertained that
the cables from Santiago that we're
cut by the St. Louis was not the
line controlled by the French COM
pany from Santiago to Hayti
through Guantanamo, but one of
the two English cables running
from Santiago south to Jamaica.
This information was communi-
Gated to the officials by Mr., Turine,
the general agent of the French
Gable company. General Blanco
therefore is not isolated from the
rest of the world, but can still
communicate with the home gov
ernment by either the French
cable going to Hayti, or the Eng
lish one going to Jamaica.

The mysteries Of vegetable life are
not all yet explored. An Indian
botanist has made experiments which
induce him to say that some plants
can see. Whether the inference can
beaccepted or not, these experiments
go to show that the plants mado an
effort to reach supports placed at 8
little distance and grew toward the
supports wherever placed. The plant
was convolvulus, and when pole
was placed near it and in such way
that the tendlils would have to turn
away from the light to reach it,
they invariably did so md within q
few hours twincd about it. That
certain plants have the sense Of
touch is well known. Medical Times.
