Transatlantic Telephone.
From Harper's Weekly.

While It might never pay to lay tele-
phone cable across the Atlantic. It would
undoubtedly pay, and pay well. to lay q
cable which, while being effective for tele-
phone service. would also give much better
results than are now attainable in teleg-
raphy. The difficulty Is, at present. not an
electrical one. but simple question Of
contraction. The cable has to be sunk in
two miles or more of water. It must,
therefore, be able to bear a pressure equal
to two miles Of water. every thirty-four
feet Of which is equal to one atmosphere,
or fifteen pounds to the square Inch; this
amounts to some tons to the square inch
at the bottom Of the Atlantic. and It is a
difficult problem to devise coils that will
stand that enormous pressure. But this Is
simply mechanical difficulty. not an cleo
trical one. The electrical part Of the matter
is complete and perfect. Messrs. Siemens
and Halske are hard at work on the me-
chanical problem; they are at present ex-
perimenting with telephone cable under
Lake Constance, with a stretch of some
fifteen or twenty miles and very consid-
cradle depth Of water. II they succeed.
the next step will be a series Of telephone
cables between England and the continent
where there is nowhere any great depth Of
sea.

Women in Agriculture.

From the Seattle P0st-Intelligencef.
The question of how to educate the
daughters Of farmers for the real duties
of life has been solved by the government
OF Belgium. Free schools have been es-
tablished in different sections for the pur-
pose of giving girls instruction in the many
branches of agriculture and home house.
keeping. Girls are admitted to the schools
when fifteen years old and kept in train
ing for ten months. During that time they
are expected to study and master the ele-
ments of agriculture, dairy farming. house
keeping and accounts, and be prepared to
go out In the world and practice the les
sons taught. In many instances they be-
come teachers.
Belgium is a thickly populated country.
There are numerous cities and towns that
tempt the young people to leave the farms.
The daughters Of well-to-do farmers are
inclined to take life easy and try to live
correct this growing evil that the new
schools were instituted. Each school adj
mits fifteen pupils. Every girl has room
to herself and must take proper care of 1t
while she remains a student. All are
dressed alike and their clothing Is made OF
ordinary material A term Of ten months
generally enthuses the pupil with q liking
for the farm and results in keeping the
girls at home and benefting the country by
their lives of usefulness.
Modern life on the farm should be entic-
ing to the sons and daughters Of the eoun-
try. It certainly presents many attrac-
tions not found in the pioneer days of ag-
riculture. There Il a hope for homes and
happiness in the future that cannot be
held out in the marts Of commerce. Any
system OF educating that tends to training
the minds OF pupils in q different direction
Is not to be commended. The world OF
humanity must become a home-ioving and
home-building population to insure peace
among the many families. There are more
opportunities ON the farm for getting an IN
terest IN the land than in any occupation
offered enterprising young people. There
Is q future In agriculture for women. Il
has opportunities for advancement In every
legitimate field Of human endeavor. That
work should not be overlooked by any
parent or guardian.

living at 33z1 Dent place northwest, was at

head with q blunt Instrument and rendered
unconscious. She was i'll and in bed at the
time and her assailant escaped. A report
OF the matter was made to the police OF the
seventh precinct this morning. and they are
endeavoring to find the responsible party.
William Lee. colored. twenty-four years old.
was arrested on suspicion. but he has not
been Identified az the guilty party.
The woman regained consciousness short

her screams attracted others in the house.
who went to her assistance. Her condition
Is not REGARDED as serious Her husband
was sleeping in an adjoining room in the
house. but as he Is deaf he heard nothing of
the disturbance.
1t is believed the person who struck Mrs.
Christian entered the house for the purpose
Of robbery. She has made 1t a practice to
carry considerable sum of money in q
bag. but about two days ago. after Mrs.
Christian was confined to her bed by the at
tack OF Illness, this bag was removed by
her daughter. The robber entered the dwell
ing through an open window In Mrs Chris
tian's room, which il on the ground floor,
and was barefooted. the imprints of bare
feet having been found on a black skirt
which was underneath the window.
It is believed that. finding Mrs. Christian
awake. he used the weapon which he had
carried with him, probably a part Of q
brick, and possibly the butt-end of q re-
volver. to silence her. She did not get a
good look at her assailant. and believes 1t
would be impossible for her to identify him.
After delivering the blow the intruder made
his escape. Whether he searched for money
Is not known.
