TWISTS IN THE CABLES.
Some Ludicrous FLINDERS Made i'm
Submarine Cablegrams.
From the Pail Mall Gazette.

Tie al wall GdIcllc.
Many a laugh-and unfortunately
many a tear-has been caused by the
blunder in a telegram. but screamingly
funny have been the mistakes made
with cablegrams that have come under
the writer's notice. Just as the mes
sage by land telegraph is sometimes
termed q wire" so the enigmatic
words sent by cablegraph are called
cables" and 1t is with these twisted
into ludicrous shapes this article deals.
1t must be understood that cables"
are very expensive Injuries. Those sent
to Australia cost four to five shillings
a word, and every word has to be paid
for. It will, therefore, be realized that
the correspondent in London cabling to
his paper at the Antipodes strains in
every way TO economist. More es-
pecially as in all the leading papers of
the new commonwealth there are col
umns OF interesting cablegrams daily
about matters occurring in England
and on the continent. OF course, only
skeletons" have been cabled. and
these have been expanded and dressed
up" before publication in order that
they may be understood by our Aus
tralian kin. II is in this dressing up"
more frequently that the most amazing
plumbers are made.

COULD COIN MUCH MONEY.
Long Distance Weather Prophet
Would Help Circus.

From the Louisville Courier-Journal.
"A meteorological man who could
predict the state of the weather sixty
days ahead of time would be an in
valuable acquisition to a circus" said
an old Snowman the other night, be-
meath the dripping and watersoaked
big top of John Robinsons shows, land
such a man could command a salary
that would make the income of Maj.
Hersey, or any other government fore
caster, look like thirty cents. Do you
supposed this circus would have been
booked in Louisville yesterday and to-
day IL at the time the route was chos-
en- and the paper put out 1t could have
been known that rain was to fall? No,
but the rainy days would be pro-
grammed in the country town, and the
large cities visited in fair weather.
When a circus comes to a city the size
of Louisville, the managers look for
ward to tremendous profits, and are
naturally disappointed If they do not
receive them. for expenses go on just
the same and a rainy day fs blank, or
a row of ciphers, as II were, on the
wrong side of the ledger. Robinson
would have made $4,000 easy on his
four performances in Louisville II 1t
had not rained. AS II Is, the differ
ence between tne nedNy EXPENSES VI
the show and the attendance, though
phenomenal considering the weather,
must be at least $4,000.
you can see, therefore, that an in
fallible weather prophet would be
worth a fortune to a circus. Any pro-
prietor in the land would pay such a
man a salary of princely proportions.
The show would go on, of course, even
in the face of rain, but the route could
be chosen with more profitable results
and the fair days given to big towns.
aside from the distressing results
that rain has upon the proceeds and
profits of a circus, ii is dreaded by the
performers and cursed by the canvas
men for its inconvenience and dis
comforts. A more miserable lot of hui
man beings cannot be discovered any
where during rainy weather than those
that live in and about the white tents.
The performances must be given and
the show must move on. no matter how
beastly the weather. II is bad enough
for the performers, but the canvasmen
get the worst Of it. The tent is made of

SEA BATH AND IT'S VIRTUE.
IL Constitutes n Powerful Remedy
for Certain Affections.
from fha Neu York JaraId


Sea baths and residence at the sea-
side constitute one of the most power
full means OF action at the disposal Of
therapeutical medicine for the cure Of
certain affections and the rapid modi-
fcation of certain unfavorable consti-
tutional conditions. But in order to de-
rive all the advantages possible from
this energetic remedy, it must be prop
erly employed. Consequently 1t is nee
essary that persons who decide to pass
some time at the seaside should possess
some general knowledge as TO the ma
ture and the working of the elements
from which they seek new health. This
knowledge must be sufficiently precise
to serve as a guide of life during pa
tents sojourn at the seaside.
Chemical analysis justifles the elias
sification of sea water among strong
mineral waters: 1t is cold chloro-s sui
phated-sodic water. The presence of
iodine in various sea weeds gave rise
to the presumption that, in conse-
quence Of the continued maceration Of
these marine plants, iodine would be
found in sea water. In recent years
spectral analysis has demonstrated the
presence OF this valuable medicine and
of bromine in sea water. therefore, sea
water is also classified among chloro-
bromo-iodized waters.
The sadness Of the sea is due to
chloride Of sodium. 1t is more intense
in the open sea than on the coasts and
dimlnishes at the mouths of rivers and
streams. Sea water also contains an
organic substance to which chemists
have hitherto devoted very little at
tention, and which possesses great inn
portance in therapeutics To this is due

STRIKERS ENJOINED.
Pressmen Must Not Interfere With
Non-Union Workers.

Freshmen Must Not Interfere with
Non-UniOn Workers.
Chicago. Aug. 24.-Judge Baker of the
United States Circuit Court this after
noon at Goshen, Ind, issued an injunc-
ton prohibiting the forty pressman
employed by the w. B. Conkey Print
ing Company at Hammond, Ind, who
are on a strike, from picketing the
plant.
The non-union men walked out Mon
day because one of their number had
been discharged and had been refused
reinstatement. The firm imported
pressmen from Chicago and secured the
injunction to prevent interference by
the strikers, who have inaugurated a
close picket around the plant.
The injunction forbids the strikers
from patrolling the streets or congre-
eating or collecting around the plant
with the intention of intimidating the
men working in their places. 1t forbids
violence or coercion of all forms, eX-
plictly and even forbids the strikers
from calling at the homes of the new
men.
