DISTURBED BY
CABLE FAKE

WASHINGTON, November 6.-Attor-
ney General Knox has so far had no
intimation from the Pacific CONNER
cial Cable Company as to its DISPOSE
tion to accept the terms offered by the
President on August as prerequi-
site to permitting that corporation to
lay transPacific cable and land it at
Hawaii, Guam and the Philippines.
The Presidents stipulations required
such guarantees on the part of the
company as would insure preference to
the United States in time of war, and
would prevent the control of the line
from passing to any foreign concern or
association. The administration has
become aware that the officers of the
company have wholly ignored the Pres
ident's conditions and are going ahead
apparently in combination with the
British cable trust.
The Navy Department, whose elabo-
rate surveys for the Pacific cable were
donated to the Commercial Cable Com
pany, has just learned that the British
cable steamer Colonia, after finishing
its work on the Vancouver-Australia
line, left Hawaii ten days ago to survey
a line via midway and Guam to the
coast of Luzon. This and other evil
dences of community of interest" with
the British line may be the subject of
inquiry on the part of the Department
Of Justice.

Following is the enclosure, a clipping
from an Augusta, Me-, paper:
Miss Nellie NJ. Stevens, the last sur
viving daughter of the late Hon. John
L. Stevens of this city, died in Boston,
Saturday, after a long illness. Miss
Stevens had gone to Boston for the
winter, and the news of her death,
though not wholly unexpected, comes
az a severe shock to her many Au-
gusta friends. The remains will be
brought from Boston today, and will
be taken to the family residence on
Western avenue, where the funeral will
take place, tomorrow, Rev. Charles A.
Hayden, officiating. The hour for the
funeral will be later announced.
Many hearts will be made sad by
the intelligence of Miss Stevens death,
not only here, where she was born, but
in the wider friendships made abroad
and at home during the long and va
ried public service of her honored
father. With more than common gifts
of mind and heart, enriched by years
of foreign residence and travel, Miss
Stevens possessed the brightness and
charm which was ever a joy to all who
knew her and gave her the strength to
bear the oft-recurring burden of loss
and sorrow with constantly failing
health, cheerfully and bravely, to the
end of a beneficent and beautiful life.
After the death of her mother she
spent the last winter IN Atlantic City,
N. j., and, receiving such apparent
benefit from the change, planned for
o. of oY. inf Loo n
few weeks since, stopping, temporarily,
in Boston on her way. Letters from
her on Monday We're in most cheer

friend, but on Thursday night she was
taken suddenly i'll, becoming uncon-
scious and remaining so until her
death Saturday at 1880 p. m.

To the Editor of the Pacific CONNER
cial Advertiser:
Dear Sir Will you please insert the
enclosed notice in your paper and add
that though in hotel, Miss Stevens
was not alone. Her nurse who has
cared so tenderly for her during the
last year, the cousin who has been with
her for the past two years and some of
her dear Augusta friends were at the
hotel with her so that she was cared
for by those who loved her to the end.

Th. Ornament Was Loaded.

The residence of Hiram Fulton, OF
Hartranft, Montgomery county. pre-
scented a scene Of CONSERVATION and dis
may several days ago when a swarm
Of hornets took possession of the entire
house Unexpectedly.
Last fall Mr.. Fulton found an excel
lent species Of hornets nest, and ind
ing 1t perfect and intact. he thought 1t
would make an excellent ornament for
his home. Acting on the impulse. he
took, the nest home and hung 1t in the
parlor. That portion OF the house Is
used very little during the winter, and,
several days ago, when his wife was
preparing the house for visitors, a fire
was started in the parlor. The room
soon became warm, and their attention
was shortly attracted by a loud buzz
zing, and the next instant the room
was filed with hornets that came from
the ornamental nest. The heat caused
them to come out, and resulted in a
rush to escape from the room. Several
Of the family suffered from coming fla
contact with the business end OF the in
sects, and over an hours time was con-
stunned driving them from the house.

days of the later Georges. An amusing
picture Of this period is drawn by Chat

London in the days Of George w. "AIl

1.-THE dandy must have a th%oughtless,
conquering, insolent air; he must at
tend TO his dress, wear mustachios, or a
beard cut round like Queen Elizabeth's
ruff or the radiant disk OF the sun; he
reveals the lofty independence of his
character by keeping his hat. on his
head, by lolling on the sofa, by stretch
ing out his boots before the noses OF the
ladies seated in admiration on chars
before him; he rides with a cane. which
he carries like a wax taper, indifferent
TO the horse which chances to be be-
tween his legs. A few radical
handles, those most advanced toward
the future, possess a pipe."-Exchange.
