Trails.

Trails.
It isn't the trails that we take or make,
But the things that we leave along them
To lift sad lives for the Masters sake
That counts when the memories throng
The sawdust trail or the greenwood trail,
Or the path of iron and thunder
That leads to the gates that are stern
and pale
With the Paradisal wonder:
The somber trail or the sunlit trail.
Or the trail DER plain or prairie,
The trail cut free through the fnaming
Or the trail of Tipperary.
It isn't the trail itself al all,
But the deeds of its men and women
That make the path where our feet must
fall
A road to the high and haman.
The kindly trail through the pastures
Or the battle trail Of the Lords.
That. plunges down to the smoke and
And the clang Of a thousand swords.
The winding trail or the trail that runs
Straight on to the throne Of glory
Its the thing we leave on the trail my
That shall count most In the story.
The love We leave and the light and
TIE Christliness ana beauty:
The Joy M the Int and the bloom of
And the splendid power Of duty.

Street Car Troubles.

From SIOUX FallS On the Cars.
To show the attitude Of the public in re-
gard to injuries I I'M able to give an
amusing instance: When Phillips avenue
was being paved, after the concrete was
put on the block from Tenth to Eleventh
streets. before the creosote block was
placed passengers on the street car lines
were compelled to walk a block to where
the car was waiting for transfers.. One
day a man was running to get the car
awaiting at Eleventh. he fell on the rough
concrete and tore his trousers n skinned
his knee. I mistook him for a friend and
jocularly said to him: You should get
your claim for damages from the street
railway in right away" When he turned
around / saw he was a stronger. He called
to a lady who was or the car to come
out and both walked across to the drug
store where they talked a moment and
then returned to the car which was wait
ing for time, and asked where he Should
go to get his damages"
This claim is not more ridiculous than
some for which we were sued. A team
ran away and at no time was nearer than
a block to the cars and yet the car
caused the runaway" In another case
one team ran away n ran into a milk
wager two blocks away and we were
asked to foot the bill.
In st. Louis a lady saw from the car
window a man holding up his hand which
was mutilated, being short two or three
of his fingers, to signal the car. When
her baby was born 1t was minus some of
its tigers. She sued the company for sew
eral thousand dollars.

HISTORY OF OCEAN CABLES
From the Kansas City Star.

I lIc hdISdS lily star.
In August, 1857. an attempt was made to
lay a cable by the American frigate Ma
CARA and the British ship OF war. Aga
Irish coast the cable parted. owing to a
strain caused by a sudden dip of the sea
bottom. In 1888 the same two ships. each
a point in the Atlantic midway between
Valentia. Ireland, and Hearts Content.
Trinity bay. Newfoundland, spliced the
cable and. steering in opposite directions.
tons. August 5.
The current was so weak that a message
Of 30 words from Queen Victoria to Pres
dent Buchanan took ca minutes I. trans
NIT and after a few more messages the
cable ceased to transmit signals. In 1873.
however. another cable of 900 miles and
weighing 1900 tons. was shipped on the
Great Eastern and was successfully paid
out for LOGS miles from Nalentia. when :,
broke and was abandoned after vain a.
tempts to grapple the lost end.
The following year the Great Eastern
sailed with a lighter but stronger cable ~
$50 miles and laid it successfully. !:
before. recovering it from a depth OF two
miles, spliced it and completed ire tssk
by landing the end at Hearts Content.
The Pacific cable IS e.sl2 miles long It
lulu. the Midway islands and Guam, 10
Manila in the Philippine islands and 10
Hongkong, The cost was sl2crAc" The
1903.
The cable is built around a core formed
of copper wire insulated by gutta percha.
around which layers of jute yarn are
wound. This, in turn. is sheathed m
small cables. each formed of several
strands of steel wire. An outer covering
OF Jute yarn, the whole saturated with 4
bituminous compound, binds together the
conducting and protecting wires in one
solid mass.
The landing of the short end of the cable
at San Francisco was effected thus: A
section of six and one-half miles was cut
from the main cable on board the cable
steamer Silvertown and loaded on a ten
der, which steamed toward the shore. On
approaching the line of breakers, which
We're heavy, the shore end was foated on
balloon buoys placed every 10 fathoms and
a team of II horses dragged it ashore,
when it was spltced to the permanent
shore connection, and the tender returned
to the Silvertown. on board which the
shore section was respliced to the main
cable. The cable ship then started for
Honolulu the evening of December IA. 1907.
The first message over the completed line
was sent by the president of the United
States, July 4. 1903.
