by increasing electrically the fractional adhesion

claimed that the trActive power can thus be

of dynamo electric machine on the locomotive,
from which a current of electricity passes

Cuba Letter in san Francisco Post.
The shops and cafes of Havana surely

other city. Among the shops you will find no
great establishments covering half acre OF
ground, half dozen stories high, ana giving
one feeling of despair to enter. but they are all
on one floor. high, cool. pretty, and many ladies
have a habit OF shopping from their carriages,
to which the pleasant clerks or chivalrous pro-
prietors bring for inspection and purchase any
article desired.
In America it is the endless effort of mer-
chants to get goods of every possible description
under one roof. Here the shops SIS rule, are
more characteristic and individualized. One
merchant deals in silks and trimmings. another
only in velvets and velvetesns, another may
show superb lines of linen. another sells cottons
and prints alone. woolens can be found only at
