WHOSE FAULT IS TIP

The world is full OF disease and
pain. Whose fault is it? Every
body's; therefore often the fault
of the sufferers themselves. But
the pressing question is,-what to
do, how to relieve, how to cure.
What would become of us ii
means were not found to destroy
disease? Why, then, of course,
disease would destroy us and the
world would be depopulated. I'm
til we learn how to preve1zt dis
ease, we must be thankful for the
means of a5atissg and curing it
after it has seized upon us, and
stands, like a savage with uplifted
axe, ready to take our lives. Es-
pecially do we need some sure
and speedy form of treatment
for those complaints which are
universal,- which arise in every
country and climate. We allude
to such ailments as Nervous and
General Debility, Hysteria, Scro-

INTER-iSLAND CO.
MAKES ANSWER

An answer was filed in United States
Court yesterday by the Inter-Island
Steam Navigation Co. to the libel Of
Hans Lorenzen, who claims damages
in the amount of $4,000 for injuries
said to have been sustained by him,
due to the steamer Noeau. The libel
liant was employed on board the Irm-
gard, which was receiving cargo of
sugar, and claims to have been struck
by a load of sugar from the Noeau-
The defendant claims that the machin-
cry used on their vessel was in good
running order and was prudently and
carefully secured and operated by the
defendant.
This defendant further alleges that
on different occasions between one and
two minutes before the first sling load
OF sugar was transferred from the
Noeau to the Irmgard warnings were
given by Charles Peterson, master of
the Noeau, and also by II. w. Gahan,
tally clerk for Schaefer & Co., agents
for the said vessel Irmgard, TO all per-
sons on board the Irmgard.
This defendant further alleges that
said libelIant was guilty of great and
gross negligence in failing to heed the
warnings thus given, but continued TO
remain in a position where he exposed
himself to the danger of being struck
by the said sling loads of sugar as
they were about to be transferred from
the said vessel Noeau to the said YES
sci Irmgard."
In conclusion the answer alleges that
the accident was not due to the fault
of the defendant but through the gross

PLANS OF THE
CABLE COMPANY
Especial to The Advertiser.)

SAN FRANCISCO, June 1.-The
Maritime World syas: The increase of
the capital stock of the Pacific Gable
Company from $4,000. 900 to $4,000, 600 is
announced to be for the plans of that
company for carrying out important
construc ton work, says the Marine Re-
view. At the offices of the Commercial
Gable Company, which is under the
control of the same men who will con-
troll the Pacific Cable Company, it was
said that the contractors had already
completed one-third of the cable re-
quired for the laying of the section
from San Francisco to Honolulu. This
line is expected to be laid and in work
ing order by November of this year.
1t will be 2078 miles in length. The
plans are to continue the cable to Ma
Mia by way of Midway Island and
Guam. The distance from Honolulu to
Midway Island is given as 1140 miles,
from Midway to Guam 2293 miles, and
from Guam to the Philippine Islands.
1860 miles. The plan calls for the land
ing of the cable on the eastern shore of
the Island of Luzon, where connec-
lions will be had with Manila by a
land line across the island. The total

The whole of the cable is being
constructed in England, under a con-

The contract provides that the con-
struction company shall lay the cable |
which shall be maintained in working !

WISCONSIN AVENUE.
Col. Biddle Cannot Indorse Bill for
Widening the Thoroughfare.

Col John Biddle, Engineer Commissioner
of the District, has recommended to his
associates that a report be forwarded to
Congress on Senate bill 52O7. for the widen
ing of the TenIeytown road, or Wisconsin
avenue, in accordance with one rendered on
a similar measure last year. The report
follows:
The object of the bill is to make Wiscon-
sin avenue 100 feet wide between 37th street
and the District line. This avenue. as it
is more commonly known, the Tenleytown
road, is considered the most important
north and south thoroughfare in the Dis
trict west of Connecticut avenue. 1t is the
main artery of travel, a street railroad
route, and passes through an attractive
country of high elevation.
The distance between the limits named is
about two and three-quarter miles. OF this
about 600 feet is now 40 feet wide and
the remainder from sixty to sixty-six feet
wide. Most of the widening could be ac-
conplished by taking strip of about thirty
feet in width on either side of the road and
along tracts Of agricultural and unsubdi-
viGed land. A small part of the widening
would be from record subdivisions and
some houses would be affected.
The bill provides that upon the dedca-
ton to the District of 10 per cent of the
land necessary to make the road 10 feet
wide, proceedings shall be instituted to ac-
quire the remainder by purchase or con-
demnation.
1T is believed that 10 per cent of the
proposed widening will come to the Dis
trict free of cost, by reason of donations
from time to time. as new subdivisions are
recorded. AS to the requirement of the re-
naming p per cent. this being made uD
of subdivided property, some OF which is
built upon, it would seem only equitable
that it be acquired as provided for in this
bill, the estimated cost being $4,000 Ii
no donations are made the estimated cost of
the widening is $4,000.
The Commissioners are in favor of WIDEN
ing this avenue provided in the bill, and
would like to see this desirable Improvement
accomplished. They regret, however, that
on account of the state of the District
finances they cannot see their way clear at
present to recommend the expenditure

FAVoRs THE METRIC SYSTEM.
Lord Kelvin Heard by House Com
mittee on Coinage.

Lord Kelvin, the English SAentist who is
visiting Washington, was heard today by
the House committee on coinage weights
aid measures on the bill of Representative
Shafroth of Colorado for the adoption Of
the metric system. Lord Kelvin's remarks
were followed with much interest by mem
bers Of the committee. He strongly ap
proved the proposed change, and said that
while he would like, from patriotic motives,
to see his own government take the lead in
an international adoption of the system, yet
he would be glad to see the United States
take the lead in the movement SO long as
the desired end was accomplished He ap-
proved the idea embodied in the House bill
of giving time for the system to become
understood before requiring its general
adoption.
George Westinghouse, head of the extern
sive concern bearing his name, also spoke
in favor of the system, although he pointed
out that it would take ten years before it
would become popular, owing to natural
