FOR THE LIFE SAVERS.
Better Protection for the Dangerous
Rhode Island Coast.
NEW STATIONS COMPLETED,
All the stations Along the Southern Shore
Connected by Telephone-The Same
System tn be Extended to Block Island
and Connected with the Mainland by
Cable.

Supt. Herbert NJ. Knowles, of the Life
Saving Service of the Rhode Island dis
trict was in the city to-day, and told sew
eral things which will be of interest to
mariners in particular, aud the public in
general.
The telephone system has been com
pleted all along the dangerous southern
Rhode Island shore and all the Life Saw
ing Stations are now in direct communi-
cation with each Other, so that in case of
big wreck where additional assistance is
necessary il can be summoned from the
other stations in quick order.
The half way station on the Narragan-
| sett shore between Point Judith and Mar
ragansett Pier has been completed. This
is for the use of the reserve men and for
the comfort of the patrol on the beach.
The new Quonocontaug station will be
ready for use this winter and the patrol
are already on duty. IL is on the Charles
town beach, half way between Watch Hill
which up TO this time has been unpro-
tected, the life savers at Point Judith be
ing relied upon TO cover this section as
well as their own.
Supt Knowles will push the exten sion
of the telephone all over Block Island and
the cable will connect the island with the
headquarters of the Life Saving Service
at Wakefield, so that aid can be summoned
from the mainland If necessary.
Within the past year or two there have
been twelve wrecks on the southwest shore
of Block Island and much property has
been lost which might have been saved
had it been possible to procure additional
assistance from the other stations, as will
now be the case with the telephone system
which Supt. Knowles has introduced.
Ex-senator George Carmichael of
Charlestown has been instrumental in Sc
curing the telephone service for the Life
Saving Service in Rhode Island. 1t was
he who first proposed the plan To connect
the stations by telephone and to his
labors both in the General Assembly
and at Washington is due the success of
this telephone system, which now makes
Rhode Islands life saving service second
to none in the country.

PRESIDENT ANDREWS ADDRESS.
Independence Of Thought is Familiar
Topic for Him.

The lectures at the State Normal School
on Saturday morning were continued this
forenoon with an address by President
Andrews of Brown University, on the
subject, Independence of Thought"
The speaker said: Every student OF
social scieuce is impressed with kind of
social solidality. Without this tendency
il would be impossible TO continue or
make any progress, but individualism
may extend so far that society will suffer.
Away back in the dark ages there was
but little chance for individualism and
the consequence was that in that age there
was no progress at all.
Luther in the time Of reformation was n
man who dared In one department To
strike out for himself and declare his
individualism, and from that time down
the pendulem has been moving that way
until the French revolution when the
trouble was that the pendulum reached
but towards the extreme Of individual
ism.
Although the great part OF what has
come 20 pass Is good. IL brings with 10
danger. IL leads us when we have n
thought to wait and see IL some one else
has IL.
II tends 90 make us ask IL we can speak,
IL we can think. II we get I'm the habit of
this we humble, degrade and weaken our
