Fourth-Edison plug, and section of wire through which was lighted the first incandescent lamp ever lit from an elec- trical lighting central station. Fifth-Sectlon of the first trolley cir cult put up at the historic Richmond, Va. electric railroad. by F. J. Sprague. Sixth-Section of the wire through which the current of electricity was sent by President Cleveland when he opened the Worlds Fair at Chicago
 Seventh-Section of the wire through which the electricity was sent to illumi- nate the headquarters of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers by Moore system of vacuum tube lighting this be- Ing the first room in the world so lighted
 Eighth-Section of cable through which the first current of electricity was trans mitted from Niagara Falls electric power plant, April Is, 1895. Loaned by William J. Hammer, Consulting Electrical Engi- neer, New York
 The work of building the cable between San Francisco and Manila was completed eighteen months after the contract was signed. Its length is $500 nautical miles, In It's construction 100000 pounds of iron and steel wires were used as we'll as 100000 pounds of jute. 3.6O0, 600 pounds of copper, 2,310.000 pounds of gutta percha. 4,22O,0O0 pounds of preservative compounds and So6.000,o00 yards of preservative tape measures.
 The iron and steel wires around the cable give 1t necessary strength to stand the strain and resist merchanical injury. The jute yarn is the cushion between the armour and the core. The brass sheeting goes around the core to prevent the tereda and other marine borers from boring into the gutta percha. It is a brass tape. The copper is the conductor The gutta percha is the insulator. The two to- gether make the core. The preservative tapes are wrapped around the armor to prevent corrosion.

Through the courtesy of Manager W. A. Sheppard of the Montgomery office of the Postal Telegraph Company, Govern or Jelks yesterday sent a cablegram to Governor General Taft of the Philippine Islands congratulating him upon the opening of the cable line between Manila and San Francisco.
 The cable line was formally opened yes- terday and Governor Jelks was invited by Manager Sheppard to transmit sen- timent from Als5ama to the Philippines. The Governor also telegraphed President Mackay of the Commercial Pacific Cable Company congratulating him upon the completion of the cable.
 Telegrams and cablegrams were also sent by many other governors of States.
 The telegram and cablegram of Govern or Jelks were filed at the Montgomery of- flee of the Postal Company at ns3O o'clock yesterday morning. AS Manila time IS five hours behind Montgomery the cable gram was delivered to Governor General Taft about his breakfast hour. e
 The course of Governor Jelks's message was by the Postal Telegraph Company s line from Montgomery to San Francisco. thence by the Commercial Pacific Cables to Honolulu, to Midway. to Guam and to Manila.
 A message starting around the world today at a. m. would arrive at Hono- lulu at Il a. m yesterday. at Midway at 10 D. m. yesterday. at Guam at p. m. today, and at Manila at p. m. today. It would pass through India at 3 p. m. today, and would return to New York be- fore a. m. Thus it would have made an excursion from today into yesterday and have arrived back in New York within an hour of the time 1t started.

Perote, Ala. June r. 1903. Mrs. R. H. Carter, Birmingham, Ala:
 My Dear Madam-I notice the articles headed Thomas Jefferson Memorial and Alabama D. A. R. Conference in Sunday s Advertiser. There are no directions as to those applying for medallion. In case no card is sent how shall we address the Memorial Association and secure the badge?
 In response to the D. A. R. matter and others of the U. D. c. who expect to at tend the National meeting at Charleston. and who have Revolutionary dead. like myself might find 1t to their interest to secure the markers for the graves To- cated in South Carolina and other States convenient of access. Let me ask how l can best secure information as to mar ker for grave of General Jacob Rumph who is buried near Columbia. AS this subject will prove of interest to many, will you kindly publish in the Montgom- cry Advertiser and let us secure infor- nation. Hoping the D. A. R. conference will be arranged conveniently for U. ID. c. meetings, l remain though not lineaI Revolutionary descendant, a rep resentative of the Rumph family and an ardent friend of the cause. Truly,
 A. L. Rumph, Bullock County Historian Union Springs
 Chapter U. D. c.
 Replying to the above will say that a letter containing an order for the Thom- as Jefferson medallion addressed to the Thomas Jefferson Memorial Association 1S5 Fifth Avenue. New York. N. Y, will receive prompt attention.
 As to the date of the Alabama D. A R. Conference, the matter is being discussed by the members of the executive board and Regent of Peter Forney Chapter and am sure that the time which will be se- lected will be agreeable and convenient to the delegates as well as friends or visiting members who may be privileged to attend the Conference.
 By referring to our issue of June {, our correspondent will see that the President General of the S. A. R. says that leach State Society furnishes markers for the graves located in their own State" It might be well for Mrs. A. L. R. to write to MT. A. S. SaIley with whom she has corresponded and learn if the South Carolina Sons" furnish markers" for the Revolutionary soldiers buried in that State; if they do not and she still desires to place marker" on General Rumph's s grave she might write Eo n s. Greeley, New Haven, Conn.,, PresI 1t General s. A. R. He can give her e address of the Secretary of the Massachusetts S.. A R. from whom a sEnarker can be ob- tained. as the U. S. s. A. R. adopted the one presented by a Massachusetts mem Der. We were promised more informa- ton on this subject but have not re- ceived it. State Regent.

p. m: today would arrive at Guam at a. m. tomorrow, apparently fourteen hours after 1t started. Continuing its journey around the world, 1t would arr rive at Suez at midnight of today, and back at New York this evening. Two such transmissions are shown on the at- tached schedule. In their course, they would pass through historic cables and waters.
 The cable which would carry them from Manila to Hong Kong Is the one which was lifted and cut by Admiral Dewey on April 25, 1898, to cut of the Spaniards' g means of communication with Spain. The cable which would carry them from Alden to Suez. rests with Pharoah's army in the waters of the Red Sea. e
 On May Is, 1896. at the National Elec- trical Exposition held in the Grand Gen. tral Palace. New York. to GHaonstrate the promptness of modern telegraphic ser vice, a message written by the Hon. Chauncey Depew was sent from New York to Chicago. Les Angeles, San Fran cisco. Vancouver. winnepeg and Ganso to London. thence via Lisbon to Gibraltar Malta. Alexandria. Suez. Alden, Bombay Madras. Singapore, Hong Kong. Shang- hai. Nagash and Tokio and back again tc New York where it was received by MT. Thomas A. Edison. The tirne of transmission was fifty minutes.
 The telegraph message which was sent around the world was sent through the following sections of historical electrical circuits which are among the most in- teresting circuits through which a mes sage has ever been sent: these sections being welded into one circuit and inter- polated in the circuit of the Postal Tele- graph Company over which the message were sent.
 First-Section of wire over which Prof. Samuel F. B. Morse sent the first mes sage by means of the Morse telegraph.
 Second-Section of the wire over which audible speech was for the first time transmitted by means of the Bell Tele- phone, by Prof Alex. Graham Bell.
 Third-Section of the Atlantic cable through which the first cable message was sent across the ocean by Cyrus w. Field.
