wind. The manner in which yachts
60 to windward Is by 'tacking," and
in going from one point to another
in this way they cover more than
twice the actual distance required.
The angles of these tacks are at
about ninety degrees to each other, so
that the yacht sails at an angle OF
about forty-fve degrees to the wind.
One quarter of the circle shows the
place where no yacht can sail without
tacking. On any other point within
the circle the yacht can sail indefinite
ly without tacking.
When q yacht is sailing as near the
wind as she will so she Is said to be
"close hauled" She is then sailing at
an angle Of about forty-five degrees
from the direction of the wind.
When a yacht is said to be on port
tack she is leaning over to starboard,
and a yacht on u starboard tack al
ways leans to port.
When q yacht is close hauled her
boom is drawn in as close as it will so.
When she is making broad reach
with the wind on the beam the boom
is eased Off until it is at an angle of
about forty-five degrees from the line
of the keel.
When she is running before the
wind the boom is at right angles to-
tue direction of the wind and to the
linz Of the keel.

ter the adjournment that he would
employ no additional counsel, being
satisfied to let the case remain in the

PACIFIC CABLE IS ASSURED
It VIII Run to Hawaii, the Philip
pines, China and Japan
WILL BE READY IN TWO YEARS

Tho Commercial Pacific Cable Company
Incorporated to Connect New York
CITY With the Far East-Presont Cable
Rates VIII Be Reduced From Thirty
to Sixty Per Cent.
Albany, N. Y.-The Commercial Pa
.ific Gable Company has been 1ncor-
,orated with capital Of 100000. The
general route Of the company Is from
New York City across the United
States to California, thence under the
Pacific Ocean to the Hawaiian Islands,
thence to the Philippine Islands, touch
ing other islands in the Pacific
Ocean.
The directors are John W. Mackay,
Of Virginia City, New; George G.
Ward. Albert Beck, William W. Cook,
and George Clapperton, of New York
City; Albert B. Chandler and EDWARD
G. Plat, Of Brooklyn, and Clarence
H. Mackay, of Roslyn, L. l..
In explaining the purposes OF the
new company John w. Mackay said
that the Commercial Pacific Gable
Company had been organized for the
purpose Of laying q submarine cable
from California to the Philippine ISL
ands by way Of Honolulu, in the Ea-
waiian Islands. The length Of the ca
BILE will be about $500 miles.
The part first laid will be from Cali.
fornia to the Hawaiian Islands, dis
tance Of about 2200 miles. 1t Is cx-
pected that this portion will be in
operation within nine months. The
time required for the laying Of the re-
mainder Of the cable from the Ha-
waiian Islands to the Philippine ISL
ands will depend upon how quickly
the cables can be manufactured. Mr..
Mackay believes that the whole cable
will be in operation within two years
from this date.
Mr.. Mackay further explained that
the new cable, when it reached the
Philippines, would connect at that
point with the present submarine Gu
BILE running from the Philippines to
Japan, and also the cable running
from the Philippines to China, and
that a direct route from China and
Japan to the United States would
thereby be established, which he be-
heved would be Of the greatest bene-
at to the growing commerce and trade
between the United States and the
Ear East.
At present cablegrams from China
70 the United States have to be sent
by way Of Europe. Mr.. Mackay also
stHted that the present cable rates
from the United States to the Philip.
pines and to China and Japan would
be reduced, when the new cable Is
laid, from thirty to sixty per cent.

INSANE ASYLUM BURNED
institution at Norfolk, Neb, De-
stroyed and Two Inmates Killed.
Lunstics Rescued With Difficulty Man,
Resisted the Efforts Made to Save
Them-Darins Work OF Attendants.

Lincoln, Neb.-The Norfolk Asylum
for Insane, the second largest in the
State, was destroyed by fire. There
were S12 patients. male and female, in
the institution. and some forty attend.
ants and workmen. During. the ex'
element eight patients got away.
These were all found. Only one man
perished in the fire. He was Victor
Casper from Brown County. BE ran
back twice into the building and the
last time threw himself into the
flames. One other, q patient named
Jepherson, from Knox County, was
fatally burned. Several others were
slightly burned. Many Of the patients
resisted and had to be taken out by
force. In some cases the rescuers had
to batter down stone castings apa
wrench out iron bars.
Prompt and daring work oe the at.
tendants, who ran up burning stair
ways and climbed shaky ladders to
bring down terrified and sometimes
unwilling patients. saved at least two
score lives. The flames were so close
that in a number Of instances both
rescuer and rescued were burned.
The fire started from defective wir.
ing in a tunnel which contained the
electric wire and heating pipes. This
tunnel ran underneath one wing at the
extreme end Of the rectangle of build.
ings. When discovered by the night
watchman the fire had attained a
headway and was irresistible. In fif-
teen minutes the water supply was
exhausted, and the whole row Of brick
and stone buildings was at the mercy
Of the flames.
The officers kept the patients in the
distant wings under lock and key,
hoping it might not be necessary to
turn them loose. Those released were
quickly huddled in groups, but the
roaii ing flames in the blackness Of the
uight acted like an irrltant on the
nerves Of maniacs, and they filed the
air with shouts.
The asylum is three miles from the
town Of Norfolk, and it was not until
help arrived from the city that the
maniacs were got under control, and 1t
was safe to release them from their
cells. Special trains were made up
in a few hours and 200 Of the patients
were brought to Lincoln.

Chicago. - The six Chicago Anar-

ate President Mckinley, were released
on habeas corpus proceedings by
Judge ChetlaiA, Of the Cook County

for a hearing so that their innocence
could be established, but the Judge
ruled that it was unnecessary, in view
of the fact that there was no evidence
to support the charge.
