Laying New Cable.

NEw YORK, Aug. The work Of laying
the last section of the new German
transatlantic cable was begun today
from the New York end Of the line.
This section will extend from Coney
Island TO the Azores, the shore end be-
ing connected with the offices of the
Commercial Cable Company. P. Bruno
Kohler, Of Berlin, in the interest OF the
German Postoffice Department, will
make the trip and observe the laying of
the cable. The new line is owned by a
German company, but it will be oper-
ated at this end by the Commercial

tonic as we have thought.
The Celtic and Slavic element in en-
igration is great and increasing, and
these people are more prolific than
those Of Gaelic blood. Mr.. Moulton
Emery, in Gunton's Magazine, presents
some highly interesting statistics in
his journey to the conclusion that in
1890 the population Of the United States
included 35,OOO,OOO English, 10000
Germans and Scandnavians and S,000,-
600 Celts, Slavs and semites, besides
the 5000, 900 negroes. This would make

the English TO all others as Ito 4, and the
Goths TO all others as 6 to /.
This treats the race as nine'tenths
pure English in 1890, which probably
does not allow enough for the Dutch,
Palatine, Germans and Scotch'lrish
migration. Moreover, it seems 10 assume
the same rate Of increase for all races
after they get here, which common ex'
perience shows to be absurd.
The really impressive thing in
Mr.. Emery's article is a table OF i'm
migration ethnically classified from
1890, TO 1890. II leaves negroes out
Of account, and contains in round num-
bers, IL 100000 Teutons, 4,250, 900 Celts
and 100000 Slavs. Among the Teutons,
the Germans we're to the English as
3 to 2, making the latter only about
$500, 900 out Of the whole 10000, 900.
Non-Teuton immigration has increased
enormously since 1890, and embraces
races hardly thought Of then. We be-
come less English and probably less
Gothic every year.

THE DOMESTIC HELP PROBLEM


Two progressive ideas are worthy OF
development in domestic service. One
is the service ON the installment plan, as
where family need one or two hours a
day of help at kitchen or chamber work.
The other idea is To hire help on u year
or two-year contract, giving a certih
cate at the end OF the term as to qualid-
cations.
II seems no more than right that
where inexperienced help is received
and gets the bene It OF careful training
in well'regulated family, that the per-
son receiving such training should get
credit for il, and that others may have
