Marvels of tho Wire.

1t is not widely known that at the
present time, between all important tel
ephone centers Of the United States,
while the trunk wires are being used
for transmitting speech, there are be-
ing sent over them simultaneously tel
egraphic messages without producing
any interruption of the spoken words.
Were it not for immutable laws of ma
ture, which cannot be varied by man
or corporation, you might, by listen
ing. take off the telegraphic message
thus traversing these very conductors.
What a tantalizing prospect for the
wiretapper? Although these telegraph
lie impulses actually traverse the coil
of wire in the telephone at your ear
and actually speed along the identical
copper conductor at that time convey
ing the voice currents, you hear neither
dot nor dash of the telegraphic mes

Reapportionment of representation in
Canada after a new census Is simpler
matter than in the United States. When
the Dominion was formed the rule was
adopted that the Province Of Quebec
should always have 65 members of the
Lower House of Parliament. The popu-
lation of Quebec, divided by 65, fur
nishes, therefore, the basis Of represen-
tation for the other provinces. Under
the new apportionment, while Quebec
remains stationary, Ontario and the
Maritime Provinces will lose represen-
tatiyes, and British Columbia and Man
itoba will gain.

If any ought to be outlaws, the an
archists should be, yet when they shoot
who are officers Of the courts, and
claim all their rights under the very
laws which they glory in despising.
Their claim Is impudent, it is true, but
it is not in vain. They are, in spite Of
all they do, the children Of the State.
and the State may well feel "how
sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to
have a thankless child"

While President Mckinley lay on his
deathbed in Buffalo the discovery was
made that more than 100 immigrants
had been landed by sailing vessel
upon a lonely spot on the Massachu-
sets coast. These people are said to
have been brought from the Azores as
the last station in a new underground
route" That they are undesirable char
acters it is safe to assume. Immigrants
who would be admitted at Ellis Island
would never take such a costly and
roundabout route to the new world. 1t
is more than likely that some at least
OF them are criminals leaving their
country for their country's good.

IA
was an article by the late Grant Allen
denouncing the evil effects Of the uni
versal snobbishness among the English
people in their attitude toward the til
tied aristocracy. He says the absurd
anachronism Of a British aristocracy
may look picturesque when viewed
through a telescope from Chicago or
San Francisco, but "it looks vile and
loathsome when viewed at close quar-
ters." Mr.. Aliens indictment has moth
ing to do with divorces or immoralities.
He says the social sins of the aristoc-
racy are rather a good thing If they
tend in any degree to weaken the alb
ject and slavlsh title worship among
the unthinking middle classes. What
he laments over is the fact that this
servility to empty titles kills the spirit
ual and intellectual life of the coun-
try. All men are born free and I'M
equal, says Grant Allen, and an arts
tocracy is an artificial attempt to sub
stitute a sham inequality for the real
one of natures making. His creed is
that Of Ruskin: mot equality, but a
frank recognition Of all the BITTERNESS
we can find" The harm of the arts
tocracy lies in the fact that it creates
false standards and makes it harder for
real merit to get recognition. Nobody
is anything by the side Of a peer. A
titled and empty-headed STRIPPING takes
precedence over a Gladstone when the
two go in to dinner. Grant Allen hap
pened to matriculate in Merton College
on the same day with Lord Randolph
Churchill, and the servile style in which
the head master singled out this youth
from the whole company to speak to
him and ask him to dinner is given as a.
fair example of the universal reign Of
servile snobbery, worse than any ever
known in any other nation, and utterly
ruinous to the manliness, the self-re-
spect, the dignity, and the independ-
ence of the British people" The criti-
cism is based on solid grounds. The
artificial 'betterness" tends to eclipse
the real But the worst harm is in the
creation of false ideals--in causing the
people" meanly to admire mean things"
as Thackeray said. According to Grant
Allen, nobody who has not lived long
in England can realize the appalling ex-
tent to which this gangrene of Lord
worship, country gentleman worship,
f1unkeyism, and snObbery has eaten
into the heart and brain of the nation.
Some of the most vicious effects are
soon in the vulgar smart society which
is trying to ape aristocracy. Mfr. Al
lens article in many respects confirms
the more sweeping indictment Of Ar
mold White, whose book, Empire and
Efficiency" is written to show that the
British Empire is in danger of crum-
bling because of the dry rot permeat-
ing every stratum of society. The Brit
ish aristocracy is certainly not source
of strength to the nation.

There will be general satisfaction
over the announcement that John w.
Mackay and other officers Of the Com
mercial Gable Company have deter
mined to span the Pacific Ocean with
a cable, and that the portion between
California and Hawaii is to be COM
pleted within less than a year. From
that point the submarine line will be
extended to the Philippine Islands as
rapidly as possible, so there Is proba-
bility that by the beginning OF 1904 1t
will be possible to send dispatches di-
rect from Washington to Manila over
an American cable. A commendable
feature Of the enterprise is the fact that
the company disclaims any intention
Of asking for subsidy or guarantee of
any kind. If this attitude is maintain
ed, and IL the Commercial Pacific Com"
pany goes ahead and completes It's
project without seeking any favors
from the Government, it will deserve
the popular approval and interest
which will attend the undertaking.
There is no reason why the Pacific
cable should not be profitable as a
strictly business enterprise. 1t will
open UP direct communication with
Japan and China as well as with the
Philippines, and will shorten the dis
tance by about one-half. The owners Of
the new cable can afford to reduce the
rates from 80 to 60 per cent, which will
increase the volume of business and
attract much Of that which now comes
by way of Europe. The Hawaiian link
is needed urgently by business interests
| in the islands, and If the rates are not
exorbitant this part Of the line should
be specially remunerative. The Govern
ment dispatches both from Hawaii and
from the Philippines will be numerous.

IRE N FIGHTING TRIM
Rubin and Jeffries Pronounced
in Fit Condition for Fight
OF Their Lives.
Both Men Quit Training and Are
Anxious for the Battle
to Begin.
Referee Corbett Declares 1t Will
Be a Fight to a
Finish.

| San Francisco. Nov. 4.-While the in
! terest grows in Fridays big fight the
odds are still 10 to and not even the
solor of Rubin money can be seen. AT
Ruhlins training place it was all Rub
lin and at Jeffries it was all for the Los
Angeles man. Both have practically
ended their preparations for the con-
| test. This mornings short ramble will
be the last they will take and Friday
Will see them in the hands of their
trainers and rubbers, keying up the
tension of every muscle.
Harry Corbett, the referee. said today
that the public could be assured that
the men will fight from the moment
| they went in the ring until one or the
other was declared victor.
There VIII be no hugging in the
clinches. The people who patroniZe box
ing have grown tired of these disgust
ing exhibitions of hanging on and it is
about time an end was put to it. OF
course the referee cannot prevent the
fighters from coming together in
clinches but I want it understood from
the beginning that when give the word
l want Jeffrles and Rubin to break The
| man who hangs on after that will be
watched, and IL he tried to save his
strength in this manner, with the full
understanding of the warning he re-
ceived before the gong sounds, let him
and his hackers abide by the decision"
Jeffries was asked yesterday for his
estimate of the length of the fight
Well he said, II know this much;
Rubin has not been standing still since
last l met him. He has improved very
much and have an idea that he will
bore in from the jump. Maybe I'll stop
him in the first round, maybe in the sec
end, but really do not think it will last
much longer than fifteen"
The same question was put to Rubin.
II feel strong" he answered. las well as
ever did in my life. feel as tho can
fight hard, but it's the best man that
wins, and how can tell now? OF course
don't think so. but l would not want
TO say that the fight would go five or ten
rounds, or that l could polish him off in
one, tho l may prove my ability to
DO so"
Two San Francisco physicians exam
ined Jeffries yesterday just after he had
finished his road work and they pro-
nounce him to be in a superb form. His
heart action is strong and regular and
taken with the health of the other or
gans indicated to their minds his posses
sion of the ability and strength to go to
the limit of human endurance.
Another physician said the same
things about Rubin. He found the pulse
to be forty-six, which the medical men
declared to be a marvel The champions
pulse was fifty.
