"In the middle of the night l was

in size than the matchless ruby, and at
either side Of the ruby are beautifully
cut diamonds. Altogether the gold set,
ting holds five gems. In length the
ring measures two and a half inches,
and it is one and a half inches high,
The setting is most curious, and in it,
self is work Of art. 1t is delicately
carved with tiny dragons head, while
around the edges are the cleaning,
pointed teeth. The ring is quite un.
comfortable to wear, but that does not
seem to bother Mrs. Mackay in the
least.

a"kwardness of removing the glove
from the hand when dining. The most
effective of these odd dinner sleeves
are made of spangled tulle or net. The
tilmy fabric clings closely to the arm,
and when it reaches the wrist it Is
shaped like mitt of the days of our
grandmothers. 1t just covers the
knuckles, allowing the rings to show to
good advantage. The sleeve does not
reach to the shoulder, but, like many
of the ultrafashionable sleeves of the
day, is suspended from it by band Of
velvet or jewels. Just where the sleeve
is attached to the bodice is a mystery
to the uninitiated, but it goes without
saying that it as attached and it is not
necessary to put on ones sleeve first
and ones bodice afterward. The nov
city is not without its drawback. So
very delicate is the material that the
utmost care must be exercised in put
ting 1t on and taking it off. Otherwise
1t will surely be torn.

OCEAN CABLE LINES.
THE DEVELOPMENT OF SUB
MARINE TELEGRAPHY.
Record of Failures that Preceded the
Eventual Success-Matter Was First
Suggested by Salvo, a Spaniard, at
Barcelona, in 179o.

The development of the submarine
telegraph from a mere gutta percha-
coated wire laid in New York harbor
by Prof Morse in 1912 to the great
cables which now engirdle the entire
earth, except in the bed of the Pacific,
is described in a statement issued by
the Treasury Bureau of Statistics, en-
titled Chronology of Submarine Tele-
graph Construction Throughout the
World and the Development of Sub
marine Telegraphy." This publication,
which has been prepared by the Bu-
reau of Statistics in view of the spe-
cial interest just now developed in a
submarine telegraph line to connect
the United States with Hawaii, Guam,
the Philippines and the Asiatic coast,
shows not only the location, number
and length of the submarine telegraphs
Of the world, but also the history of
this great system and the part which
American genius and enterprise have
had in it's development.
The statement credits Saliva, a Span
tiOn Of submarine telegraphy, made be-
fore the Barcelona Academy of Sci
ences in 1895. Aldini, a nephew Of
Calvin, performed experiments in the
transmission of electric signals under
the sea near Calais, France, in 1903;
Schilling ignited gunpOwder by cleo
tricity transmitted through subaQue-
Gus conducting wire under the Neva
River, near st. Petersburg, in 1872; tel
egraphic signals were transmitted
through insulated wires under the
River HOOgly, in India, by the director
Of the East India COmpany's telegraph
system in 1889, and in 1912 Prof. Morse
transmitted electric currents and sig
nails through an insulated copper wire
laid for that purpose between Castle
Garden and Governors Island, in New
York harbor, and in the following year
suggested submarine electric commu-
nicatiOn between the United States
and Europe. In 1916 Ezra Cornell, in
successfully operated submarine cop
per wires in the Hudson River be-
tween New York and Fort Lee, and in
1917 a section of the telegraph line
connecting New York and Washington
was laid through the waters of a mar
row creek by j. j. Craven, of New Jer-
sey, thus demonstrating telegraphiC
service. In 1850 submarine telegraph
line was laid across the English Chan
mel and signals exchanged, but without
further success, though in the follow
ing year cable containing four cop
per wires, insulated with gutta percha
and protected by galvanized iron wires
wound spirally about it, was laid
across the English Channel and put
into successful operation as sub.
marine telegraph line.
These experiments having proved
the practicability of submarine teleg.

graph line under the Atlantic was un-

balloon sleeves, to go
no farther back, in
vention of this kind
takes the line of alb
surdity. The very
latest thing in sleeves
is not open to criti-
cism on this account,
though it is the most
curious idea evolved
for many a day. 1t Is
a dinner sleeve, which
forms an old-fashion-

Petty Crimes Increa sing in England

The British Home Office report for
1897 shows that while serious crimes
tend to diminish in England, there is a
great increase of minor offenses. BY
far the larger number of criminals con-
vlcted during the year have been con-
victed of some crime before-a fact
that led the Home Office to conclude
that neither penal servitude nor i'm.
prisonment serves to deter the habitual
offender from reverting to crime, and
1t Is the habltual offender who forms
the bulk Of the prison population"
