CABLE
From u. 5. to
Philippines
A Company Has Been
Incorporated.
Washington Wants Gov
ernment Control.
New Company's Requests Are
Very Reasonable.

Washington, Sept. 24.--(Spl)-Gov-
ernment officials here are interested
in the news of the incorporation to
lay a submarine cable across the Pa
cific, to connect the United States and
the Philippines. !.
The new company, which Is to be
affiliated with the Comercial Cable
company, it is said. will not ask for
any subsidy or guarantee from the
government. If this proves to be true,
and the company confines it's request
to landing rights in California, Ha-
all, Guam and the Philippines, Con-
gress will doubtless grant 1t the neces-
sary authority. If, however, the COM
pany asks for subsidy, it will meet
considerable antagonism in Congress.
While the sentiment of both Senate
and Congress favored government
control of any cable that should be
laid across the Pacific. there is a
strong minority which believes that
the matter should be left to private
company.
1t Is thought that If the new COM
pany,. as its incorporators declare, is
willing to lay the cable on the same
terms and conditions, so far as land
ing rights are concerned, as were
imposed by the government the cable
lines landing on the Atlantic coast,
many of the objections will be re-
moved and Congress will doubtless
authorize it to go ahead.

DRY DOCK
Will be Moved From
Havana.
Needed at New Philippine Naval
Station.

Washington, Sept. 24.-(Spl)-From
present indications, the big floatin';
steel dry dock at Havana, recently
purchased by this government from
Spain, will be sent to the New Olonga-
po naval station in the Philippines.
Secretary Long Monday authorized the
repairs recommended by Naval Con
structor Gilmour who estimated the
cost at 100000, in the belief that an
extra dock force would have to be en-
gagged for the work 1t is thought now
that much of the repair work can be
done by the regular force, and the to-
tai cost considerably reduced.

GrecIer,a Awru1 Wrilinr.

1t is interesting to recall the fact that
Horace Greeley left behind him n very
frank criticism of the legibility Of his
own chirography. Being up town in
New York one day, and wishing to
send n telegram and also to get shaved,
he entered n hotel and sent his dis
patch. Then, passing into the barber
shop, he sat down in a chair and (ac-
cOrding TO custom) was soon sound
asleep.
Meantime the telegram had created
decided sensation, Mr.. Greeley hav-
ing thrown it down hastily on the desk
and neglected to translate it. Nobody,
from the manager down. being able to
supply a legible equivalent for the
mysterious characters. a messenger
was sent into the barber shop with the
screed.
Waking with start and supposing
that the boy had brought an answer to
his dispatch. Mr.. Greeley took the
paper, scanned it for n moment, and
then, with look of deep disgust, piped
out: "What blamed idiot wrote this?"

lion. drawing himself to his full height,
exclaimed; Mr.. President. you must not

The Games That Were Played In the
Eighteenth Century.

The Games That Were Played In the
Eighteenth Century.
After the advent of the house Of Han
over the fayoritc games at court were
"quadrille," an Improvement of "om-
bre," and commerce" The gains and
losses Of the kings and queens were, as
a rule, restricted to 100 guineas, but on
Twelfth Night it was customary for
thousands to change hands. On one
occasion Lady Cowper, lady in wait
ing, refused for the sake Of her chill
dren TO take part in the game. as none
sat down to the table with less than
1000.
About the year 174O a rage for
"whisk," or whist set in, but at first
1t was considered too wise n game for
ladies' to join in. Hume, the historian,
never went to bed without his whist
and even the great Johnson regretted
that he had not learned to play cards.
In 1T42 Horny" Walpole finds it abso-
lutely necessary to learn "whlsk," :"
having waited I'm vain for It's being
left Off" We find him in another let
ter threatening to build an altar to
Pam to commemorate the escape Of
his charming Duchess Of Grafton, who.
1t appears, had been playing cards in
Rome when she ought to have been at
cardinals reception. where the floor
fell in and all the monsignores were
precipitated into the cellar.
Cards were so very much in evidence
in his time that even invitations were
frequently issued and notes written up
on the backs of playing cards, which
on that account were usually plain,
without any design. The chevalier's
famous order to retreat at Culloden
was written on the back Of the nine Of
hearts.
a fresh attempt was made in 1879 to
remedy the state of gambling in Eng
land by passing an act which provided
that "any person keeping n house or
other place to game in forfeits 1900,
half to the prosecutor and half to the
poor Of the parish" whereupon two
ladies Of title. Mordington and Casselis,
who keep open houses for gambling,
claimed their privilege Of peerage in
order to intimldate the peace officers
from doing their duty and suppressing
the public gaming houses by them.-
