OCEAN CABLE PATHS.
Reason for Following Certain Reuter-
Through Submarine Depths
Accurate Surveys.

There seems to be no logical reason
why cables cannot be laid across any
section of the oceans of the world, no
matter how great the depth, says Lip
pincott's. Some portions of the At
lantic cables are over three miles be-
low the surface, and this is not neces-
sarily the extreme depth, for the cable
may, and probably does, pass from
the top of one submarine hill to an
other without dropping materially
into the deep valleys between. The
greatest kntwn depth of the sea is
4O,236 feet, or seven and three-ffths
miles, found in the south Atlantic,
about midway between the island OF
Tristan d'Acunha and the mouth OF
the Rio de la Plata. Soundings have
been made to depth of 81, 4S0 feet in
the North Atlantic, south of New
foundland, and about "a, 600 feet, or
nearly six and half miles, is reported
south of the Bermudas. Even such
enormous depths as these need not
hinder cab1e-laying, so far as the the
DRY is concerned, but in practice, for
reasons of economy in maintenance
and otherwise, it is found best to take
advantage of favoring conditions in
the oceans bed. To illustrate, all OF
the cables between the United States
and Europe run up along our coast
until they reach the neigh borhood OF
Newfoundland before starting across
to their destinations in Ireland OF
France.
The reason for this is found in the
range of submarine tablelands, form
ing an ideal cable bed, which lies be-
tween the three latter countries. In
past years immense portions of this
submerged territory have been plotted
out and and mapped by various govern
ment and private expeditions, and this
knowledge is constantly being added
to. 1t becomes particularly valuable
in economic cable-laying. Except in
extreme cases, the electrical conductor
is not dropped overheard haphazard.
On the contrary, the submarine noun,
tains, valleys and plains over which it
is to take its sinuous course are accu.
rately selected beforehand, and their
general confguration, soil-covering.

in all trades, the cable-layers must ad.

given them in starting, in order to per

sea ever since his boyhood, and is &C
years old. He is a lieutenant in the
royal naval reserve of England. The
officers and crew number 20 in all.
Of the great southern continent,
which Capt. Scott and his officers and
crew are attempting to penetrate, but
little is known. Of the little informa-
ton available English and American
expeditions have contributed the
greater part, though the Italian expe-
dition under Lieut.. Booze, in 1882, add
ed a, few additional facts to that al
ready known. The continent was dis.
covered first by Capt. John Briscoe
on February 27, 1881, more than three
centuries after Magellan had first tray-
ersed the southern seas. In 1881 Capt.
Briscoe reached as far south a 81
degrees 81 minutes, and the following
year discovered Graham's Land, in 81
degrees 1 minute. Much valuable in
formation of the southern seas was
gained by the American expedition IN
der Lieut.. Charles Wilkes, which sailed
from Hampton Roads on August 10,
1888. The expedition consisted of six
vessels, three of them men of war,
and was accompanied by number of
distinguished scientists. The farthest
point south reached was 20 degrees.
In 1S41 Sir James Clark Ross command
ed an expedition which penetrated the
ice seas to 70 degrees II minutes. 1t
is hoped by the societies that equipped
the Discovery expedition that it may
reach point further south than any
that preceded it, and if it returns safe
" it will undoubtedly add much of value
to our store of information Of this
vast, ice-bound, uninhabited continent.

Trinity church, Minneapolis, came to
Washington and assumed the work
which had been laid down by the death
of DIR. Steele, in 1893. He remained
with the church until 1896, when Rev.
Allan Griffith was called to temporary
pastorate. In that year the church
was offered to the bishop of Washing
ton for use as his pro-cathedral, and
accepted by him. On November 90.
1896, a concordat was executed be-
tween the bishop and the legal paro-
chial authorities-the rector, the ward
ems and the vestrymen. Under the
provisions of this concordat the bishop
dominates the clergy and has control
of the ritual and policy of the work.
The rector and vestrymen retain their
legal and canonical rights over the
financial and pastoral concerns of the

California a. a Copper Field,

A careful study of the map which
the state mineralogist has prepared,
showing the copper locations in Cali
fornia, will convince anyone that this
state is destined ultimately to become
the greatest copper producer in the
world. Speaking in a general way.
there are two belts of the red metal
deposits which extend nearly the
whole length of the state, one follow
ing the coast ranges and the other
the foothills of the Sierra Each of
these have what appear to be off

IDEAL CHURCH WORK
City of Washington Has More Than
Its Share of It.
Cathedral to BE Erected in the Vi
cinity OF Cleveland Park-A
Parish Animated by True
Christianity.
Especial washington letter.


I'm THE beautiful hills northwest
~ of Washington there is to be
erected. cathedral for the
o Protestant Episcopal church of this
diocese. For many miles around us we
are ''green-walled by the hills of Mary
land" and guarded by the Businesses
of the hills of Virginia on the other
side of the Potomac.
Grover Cleveland bought summer
home five miles from the white house
on the hills which had never been
brought into the real estate market.
His going there induced others to fol-
low; and to-day fully $4,000 good peo-
pie have homes in that vicinity. Di-
reetly on the site of Cleveland's tenn
porary home village has been estab-
ished, and Cleveland Park, as it is
called, is composed of numerous hand
some cottages, many of them costly
and magnificent.
One mile farther from the city than
the Cleveland residence Mrs. Hearst
has built and thoroughly equipped
school for girls, their higher educa-
ton and development in sciences and
useful arts. The grounds are extern
sive, the buildings complete, the fac
ulty superior, the water and air pure
and healthful,
1t is in this neighborhood that the
new cathedral is to be built. The
acreage is already purchased, and peo-
pie who ride by on the electric cars
can. see the sign: Cathedral Close"
showing the chosen site for the home
and place of worship of the bishop.
Although the beginning has been made
in the site selection and purchase, the
plans have not yet been approved, and
it may be another year before this i'm
portant church work shall be we'll I'M
der way. But the determine ton to go
forward in this matter, the final move
ment in the land purchase, marks an
epoch-the practical commencement
of matter long in contemplation.
The bishop of this diocese has only
a temporary or provisional home, and
this is not proper for diocese so pros
porous as this one has always been.
The pro-cathedral Chat is the provi-
sional cathedraD is the little church
of ST. Mark, on Capitol hill. 1t is used
as the bishops church, pending the
erection of the cathedral. The pur-
pose of the pro-cathedral is that the
bishop shall have a church in which
he may hold services at any time, full
fill his episcopal offices, and order the
work and worship of the diocese in &C
cordance with his ideals for the well
fare and common good of all com
municants, as we'll as of the clergy and
congregations.
The church of st. Mark is located
on the corner of Third and A streets,
southeast; that is, four blocks away
from the capitol, and only two blocks
from the congressional library. You
would naturally suppose that to be an
excellent location, but it is not. Cap
itol hill is not the residential section
aof the prosperous, but of the financially
mediocre. Although this is the pro-
cathedral, and as such can be used by
the bishop at any time, it has regu-
larly organized vestry, regular pas
, tor, and complete organization, re-
