FRISCO WAS
WAITING
How the Honolulu
News Was Re.
ceived There.

San Francisco kept busy specializing
over the delay in landing the cable
here, several days having elapsed be-
tween the message sent when the
cable was buoyed and the announce
ment that connection had been made.
In its issue of Jan. 2, the chronicle
said:
San Francisco and Honolulu are con-
nected by cable. The first words
passed under the ocean through 2610
miles of insulated rope a few moments
after II o'clock last night. The wire
worked perfectly.
The Silvertown just before splicing
the ends, some thirty miles off shore
from Honolulu, telegraphed both ways
for the land stations to wait till 1l:10
o'clock, San Francisco time, before try
ing the cable. That time was desired
to insure the perfect hardening of the
gutta percha in the splice after the
joint should be lowered overheard from
the ship in about $500 feet of water
Operators sat anXiously and eagerly
about the instruments in King street
at Honolulu and in the cable Office on
Market street in San Francisco wait
ing for the time limit to expire. San
Francisco was watching for Honolulu
to signal first.
A few moments after II o'clock, be-
fore the time limit was up. the signal
went from this end to Honolulu. 1t
read
IS. N. (the regular cable call to at
tract attention) n. o. X. HUI" This
practically meant: Hello! All right,
Honolulu"
Instantly the little needle began zig
tagging with its reply from Honolulu,
making queer little sawtooth lines
along the receding narrow ribbon OF
white paper. The operators eyed 1t
keenly. All 1t spelled out was: Min II
are reversed" But they instantly in
terpreted that as Wait a minute, you
are reversed"
Now repeat" cabled Honolulu.
How are you?" asked San Francis
co, meaning the condition of the cable
instruments.
Rather wandering" replied Homo
lulu.
I'VE are nicely" assured San Fran
ciso, meaning this end Of the cable was
all right.
That first little response from Homo
lulu came into the San Francisco Office
at exactly 1903 o'clock. 1t was then
exactly SOB o'clock. 1t was Honolulu
the time difference being two hours and
twenty-five minutes and few seconds

FIRE IN BERLIN.

Berlin, April 29.-The farm build
ings and contents, owned by B. E.
Cook, just south of the pond, were tot
ally de stroyed by fire last night. The
building; were unoccupied, the
owner being in Barre. The house was
furnished and quantity of hay was
stored in the barn. Mr. Cook, form
erly of the we'll known firm of Smith,
Whitcomb e. Cook of Barre, and his
wife, have for the past ten or twelve
years spent the summers at the farm,
going to Barre to live during the
winter months.
The fire was discovered about nine
O'Clock and a large force of men
fought thel flames with all available
means, and careful watch was kept
during ihe night to prevent the spread
of the flames to the woods near by.
The origin of the fire is not known
but as it broke out in the barn it is
thought to be incendiaiy, or the result
of tramp's visit. N facts regard
ing the insurance have been obtained.
The fire was discovered by A. E.
Buck, from whose house che Cook
buildings were in plain view. The
burned buildings consisted Of large
story and half house with ell and
woodshed, horse barn, two hay
sheds and a large barn. Besides the
property belonging to Mr.. Cook, Earl
Sargent had quantity of goods
stored there. The crowd that gath.
cred devoted its energies to fighting
the flames for a quarter of mile
along an old cedar fence that led to
the woods and other farms

CARLOAD OF HORSES.

H M. Farnham returned Tuesday
evening from ons of his periodical
visits to the west, where he purchase I;
the horses for his extensive retail
trade which has become so thoroughly
established that his stock farm has
the repu tation of being the leading
horse market in this section of the
State. This time his purchases were
made in the State of Illinois and
Missouri and carload of twenty six
horses, suitable for draft and driving
purposes are on their way east and
are expected to arrive here on Thurs
day. MI. Farnham can always relate
some incident, of interest which comes
under his observation during his trav-
els, upon this occasion young lady
boarded the train at a Missouri sta
tion who had attained the phenomenal
height OF eight feet, with the strik-
ing pecularity of being only Of ordi
nary height when in sitting posi-
tion. We judge by Mr.. Farnham :
description of this lady and the start.
ling sensation he experienced at the
unexpected sight of her, that the
high and lofty qualifications he so
much admire' in horse, do not ap-
peal favorably to him when applied
to the fair sex.

COUNTY COURT.

Judge Stafford charged the jury in
the case of McKinstry VS.. Collins and
Lowell on Wednesday and gave them
the case at about 10 O'Clock. At IL
O'Clock the ejectment case of Z. r.
Angel VS.. E. r. Fletcher ct al was
put on for hearing by conrt. The
plaintiff asks that the defendant be
elected from possession of house and
lot in Woodbury.. Taylor & Dutton
for the plaintiff and B. E. Ballard for
the defendants. The hearing was not
concluded during the forenoon aud
was again taken up at 2 O'Clock.
County court has but short time
longer to run as Judge Stafford has
announced that he shall not come back
after the May term of Supreme Court
and that final adjournment of county
court will be not later than May ~.
The case of S. B. Fair VS.. Willis J..
Laird has been discontinued. Judg-
ment for plaintiff by default was rem
dered in the case of j. p. Lamson VS..

NEW LICENSE PAPER.

st. Johnsbury, April 20. -Undaunt-
cd by the solid front which this sec-
tion of the State presented against
high license at the March elections,
the license advocates of this town pro-
pose to continue the fight, and feeling
the necessity of newspaper commit
ted to high license, four leading Ii
cense men of this town have purchased
the subscription list of the Lyndon
vile journal and that paper. will be
devoted to bringing lilly white"
towns into the license fold.
The gentlemen mentioned are Frank
N. Carr, defeated candidate for SEN
atur on the local-option ticket last
fall; M. j. Caldbeck, owner of the
Avenue House; II. b. Howe, a promi-
nent young Democratic lawyer, and
Fred Gilman, we'll known horse
dealer. The purchase was made at an
opportune time as the journal, which
is edited and managed by E. o. Leon
ard, formerly of the st. Johnsbury
Republican, and previous to that
treasurer of the defunct Bradford
Savings bank and Trust Company, has
been in sore financial straits for some
time. The former owner, b. H. Wells
now of Glover, holds mortgage of
81, 600 on the presses and printing ma
terial, so that Editor Leonard's only
available asset in the establishment
was the subscription list. The new
owners have ordered Mr.. Wells to re-
move his property, and they propose
to establish a new plant, installing
type setting machines, etc. The par
ties interested are at Lyndonville to-
day and it is possible that some ar
rangement may be made to purchase
the mechanical apparatus from Mr..
Wells If this is not done it is ru-
mored that John B. Chase. who sue
ceeded to the proprietorship of the
Vermont Union on the death of his
father, O.. M. Chase, may secure the
Journal equipment and move the
Union from Lyndon Corner to Lyn-
donville. In case this is done it is al
together likely that the new license
paper will be published at st. Johns
bury. 1t is not yet known who will
be editor of the Journal under the
new ownership.
Messers Carr, Caldbeck, Howe and
Gilman, will proceed at once to form
a stock company among license advo
Gates in this town and vicinity, and a
strong effort will be made to change
the sentiment of this section of the
State in regard to the liquor question.

but it takes fewer gallons to paint a

Il TEST CASE.

Habeas corpu; proceedings were
brought Wednesday in the case Of
Andrew Rodgers who was yesterday
sentenced for 102 days because he
could not pay his fine for second
offense Of intoxication. Papers were
served on City Sheriff Docherty who
had Rodgers in custody under the
mittimus issued by Judge Woodward,
the respondent having had his lawful
time to raise the fine and having
failed to do So Mr.. Docherty took
Rogers before county court at once as
commanded by the writ and at ten
O clock the case was taken up. 1t
was desired to make this a test case
on the present law, as to the alterna-
tive sentence for a second otfepse so
Judge Stafford did not ass upon the
question at all but continued the case
into Supreme Court, as the statutes
provide can be done. The que ;tion
will be argued and decided at the May
term of Supreme Court Had Judge
Stafford heard the case and given a
decision there would have been no
method of taking it to the higher
court, for no appeal can be taken in a
habeas corpus matter, the first deci-
sion of court of competent jurisdic-
tion being final.
The decision of the Supreme Court
will be awaited with interest by
officials and lawyers throughout the
State as it is the first question of in
depreciation under the new license
law and one which is likely to arise
very frequently in the future as it
has in the past.
Heaton and Thomas are attorneys
for the petitioner Rodgers, while the
State is represented by State Attor-
ney Bailey. Pending the outcome of
the habeas corpus proceedings bail
has been fixed for Rodgers in the sum
of 800, but this morning he was un-
able to furnish it, though he may
later. Probably Michael McNally
will keep close track of this case
while he congratulates himself on
his easy release few days ago.
