RAPID TRANSIT.

AL aboard! Next stop New York! Time,
half an hour! By and by this will be the
programme, if Professor William D.
Marks, the well known electrician, knows
what he is talking about. He has been
telling a Philadelphia reporter that he is
willing to stake his reputation as an cleo
trical engineer on his ability to construct
an electric motor capable of taking
train from Philadelphia to New York in
thirty-six minutes. The present railroads
would not suffice for the attainment of
this speed, he remarks, but specially
constructed and suitable road could be
built, he believes, and, indeed, will be
built before many years have elapsed.
The road for the electrical train, he de-
clares, should be perfectly straight, or with
most solid and substantial, the bridges of
stone Us uniformly as possible,
the rails, separated from the ties
by non-conducting material, much
heavier than at present and grade cross
ings lacking everywhere. Motors of a
hundred thousand poundsin weight should
run the trains, and, between the two ter
mini of the road, four electric stations
with immense dynamcs be situated to pour
vast currents of electricity into the rails.
All sorts of contrivances would be neces-
sary to prevent injury from passing trains,
for, sweeping down with the force of cy-
clone, they would draw after them what
ever unstable things stood near their path;
thus protection would be necessary to pas
sengers waiting at way stations, and the
stations themselves would have to be re-
moved some distance from the tracks. The
cars would probably be cylindrical in
shape and enclosed, receiving their supply
of air from ventilators much the same as
those now in use on board of steamships.
This would be rapid transit enough to
suit even the Register and the News.

HAVEN, MORNING, SEPTEMBER 80,

tory, the fourth rates otter our lakes and
rivers.
Wyoming has some interesting things in
it. Almost in the exact geographical GEN.
ter of Wyoming is mountain of solid
hematite iron ore, with 600 feet of it above
ground, more than mile wide and over
two miles in length. Besides the iron, the
mountain contains bed of Ignite coal
large enough to warm the entire world for
a century, a dozen. of dried-up lakes of
soda, where the soda is deposited to a
depth of over 800 feet, some of the lakes
being over 600 acres in extent. In the
mountain adjoining there is petroleum
basin larger than those of Pennsylvania
and West Virginia combined. Out of
some of the springs pure rectifed coal oil
is trickling at the rate of 20 to 80 barrels
per day.
Japan is rather shaky country to live
in A report issued by the japanese home
department states that during the month
of April last there were eighty earthquake
disturbances, felt on twenty-six days, the
day on which the largest number was felt
being the 18th, when there were seventeen
oscillations. The earthquake the effects
of which were most extensively felt was
| that which occurred on the 18th of April,
extending over twenty provinces. Fortu-
| nately none of the shocks was of very
serious character, the worst effects report
ed being the appearance of cracks in the
ground, the displacement of doors and
screens, the throwing down of small arti-
cles on shelves, and the stoppage of clock
pendulums.
Mr.. Edward Bellamy advocates in the
| October Forum the government control oi
the telegraph and telephone services, of the
parcel express business, of the railroads
of the coal mines of the country, and oi
such municipal services as transit, light
ing, heating and water supply. This, h
estimates, would bring into the public en-
ployment a body of nearly two million
workers, and the establishment of sys
tenn of great national stores for the suppl,
of the necessaries and luxuries of life
strictly at cost, would soon follow. From
that time onward progress would be cas-.
toward the ideal system of universal CO
operation and amity of which this dreame
has dreamed. The New York Sun pert
nently remarks: If it were not for tn

Der, counting from the age of "a to SO, is
3,974, ,180, and out of that number 1,75O,
600 are women. Only the men, he thinks,
should be taxed, because the presumption
is that the women do not remain in single
blessedness of their own free will.

HEARD IT BEFORE.

You tell him joke you relied on as new;
He smiles in wearisome way.
From . comedy new you recite him a bit:
He says he saw that at the play.
You give him story that never yet failed
To set all who heard in q roar;
He mods half approval and turns him away,
And murmurs. i've heard it before"
Tho girl whom you WOO in your tenderest tone,
Whose heart you are seeking to gain,
Listens coldly to all you have to protest,
Seeming only to wish you'd refrain.
xou seek for some phrase not totally trite,
And en- the thesaurus explore;
ITS all of no use, and you bid her goodbye
You see she has heard it before.
How sad it must be to go onward like this,
With nothing on earth to enjoy, :.
And never make anyone happy yourself
And only find things to annoy.
Hie life ikaan orange whose juices are gone
us : dry, empty shell. and no more;
Alas! he is much to be pitied. not blamed
The man who has heard it before.
