The future extension of ocean telegraphy will be materially in fluencel by spme facts just pub lished in the London Electrical Review showing the remarkable durability ot submarine " armored cables. The' Review stateslhat portions of the Channel cable laid in 1851 have been lately recovered - "with the iron wires so-slightly corroded as practically to have lost but little of their original strength." Yet this was not protected by a compound or outer coating, such as that with which ocean cablesH laid' in recent years have been served. The' galvanized wires of she section Funta Rassa-Key West cable of 1875 were found a short time ago when taken up for repairs to be almost if not fully as on the dap the cable . was sub merged. Other instances may be-cited which show that deep sea cables ot the modern armored type are practically proof against the chem ical action of the water, the teeth of submarine insects and the me chanical force of currents travers tfte floor of the ocean.- N.

It was with strange feelings that Arthur Hey wood found himself in the guest chamber of his Aunt Maud's house. lie had never seen her before today, when he had been summoned in haste to her bedside. As it was her wish to make hiih her heir, she wanted to see him once before she diied. It was a long time" before he could.corapdse his mind to sleep in this , gloomy spare roomj and when he did his dreams were? troubled. Toward morning he awoke with a shiver, conscious that he was not alone in the room. A woman stood eside his bed, tall and " gaunt, with streaming hair. "Hearrae," she- said solemnly. "Tonight Maud Heywood will die a natural death. Go to her before it is too late I wish to have- fter executed!" Twice more through the night this figure appeared and repeated these words, and when the morn ing came Heywood learned his aunt had died m , the night. She left him all her fortune, with the proviso that he must keep the gar ret locked as long as he lived in the house. Otherwise some other disposition was to be made of. her fortune. It was-a snsaU tiling to ask, and Hey wood had no hesi tancy, in accepting the terras. In time he married and came with his wife to live at Heywood Man or. Years brought them a family and still the garret remained closed. A garret is a great loss to. a housekeeper, but whenever Mrs. Heywood made this remaik her husband would reply that "the es tete would be a greater one.r "Who will ever know?" she would urge. "Who cares?" "A codicil which I have never seen remains," Arthur would re- plv. "Who knows what might happen?" . And so his latnna did no more than peep through the keyhole of this Blue Beard's chamber. The mystery was greater, how ever, to the children; artd when; the eldest boy was ten years old it had occurred to him that nothing could be so delightful as to peep into that garret, in- which might be hidden all ' sorts of wonderful treasures.; And so one day, by means of a ladder some fruit pick ers, had left near the house, he gained the sloping roof and reach ed the dormer window." Perchjed on the sill, lie peeped m; but at tile moment the ladder slipped. He remained on the window ledge screaming for helpi and the fruit pickers' hearing him rari" to his as sistance. , However. though the Pitcher's Castoria- child had crept up the sloping roof,- the men could not reach him, and knowing nothing of the taboo which forbade the opening of the garret door, one- of them, .bade 'the; ciiiM remain where he was until he came ana'rushed up the stair case, followed by all the house hold. 5 The, door was soon broken in, the window opened, the' child rescued. And tlfen the woman', who' until now had forgotten all but her boy's danger,-took breath and looked . about her. The garret was it -bare", place; hung with' old' gaimenis and smelling hideously. In one dark corner lay what looked like a- bed. Upon it what? To approach, to' gaze and to rush wjklly from the room Was the work of a moment. It- was a jskelef on dressed fnf a gray gown and with a cap upon its head, slill covered with long black hair, that lay there. Arthur Heywood was absent from home at the time. When he returned he foui:d the long-sealed garret cfoor opened, heard Ins- wife's story amid her sobs of ter ror and proceeded to the spot. There he stood, transfixed with horror and astonishment. The skeleten on the bed wore the gray dress, Jthe white cap and had die straight black hair of the woman who had appeared to him thrice in a vision demanding the execution of his aunt, Maud Heywood. Whatever this meant, the dis- Icovery was a public one, a'ni s must the "explanation be. Ar thur sent for the proper authori ties and also for the lawyer in whose possession Was a codicil of the will that had given Arthur possession, of the estate. This codicil had been enveloped aaid sealed by Miss Maud who, alone knew the eon tents. It contained these words: "This paper will only be opened if the garret will be opened also In that case mv secret will be known to those who are of my own age, lor there was mucu ex citement when Jane Jarvelle dis appeared. She was well known in the neighborhood, and but for let ters which I. wrote mj'self and ex hibited to curious folk the truth HHghthuve been- suspeeted at the time. "Jane came to live with me as housekeeper when I was brut tw-?n! y, thirty years ago. I was be trothed to a man I adored. My brother Rupert hated him. He placed Jane jarvelle in my "house as a spy. She intercepted letters and worked in such a way that mv ensracement was" broken off and my lHe embittered..- My lov er left me with scorn, believing a false tale, and married another.. Que day I discovered Jane Jar vell's treachery. I went in-search of her. , I found her in the garret. There we liad a scene and I mur dered her. I stabbed' her to' the heart. She lived only long enough to-skriekc- " 'I will Iiaunt this house until you are hanged for this!? "She has done it. I Have seen her. But I shall hot be hanged'. The secret is-all my own. I locked thggaeret, dismissed my servants in a body and gathered new ones about me. I told people that Jane had been dismissed for dishonesty. rl did not lie.

Brooklyn Eagle.- AN ABSENT-MINDED MANi- Cincinnati has the bhampiou? absent-minded man. A gentle man living in tlie suburbs went inJ a store on Walnut street tc make? a few purchases. Tee only light in the store was' a candle standing.' on the counter' near the money" drawer. After making ais . pur- chases he handed the proprietor v & bill, and alter returning him'' ther change the proprietor walked to the rear of the store to arrange? -something, when suddenly he was left in the daik. He started toward the counter, and groping' around it, found, not the candle bufe the change. It struck him then that probably the man, in a fib of absent-mindedness, had-' taken the candle instead of his cliBnge. He started out after hiui and cafeliihg up with him, saw' that he liad the- bundle in one? hand and the caudle in tne otlier.- After apologizing" for the mistake' the stranger took his ceange. andi gave back- the candle.
