How to Handle Guns.

Having been asked by friends fra-
quentiy for advice for their boys in
handling guns. l send you q digest of
Empty or loaded, never point q gun
toward yourself or any other person.
When u,field, carry your gun ct the
half cock. If in cover, let your hand
shield the hammers from whipping
twigs.
When riding from oneshooting ground
to another, or whenever you have your
gun i'll any conveyance, remove the cart
ridges, if a brecch loader, it being so
easy to replace them. If n muzzle load
er, remove hecaps, brush off the nipples
and place o wad on each nipple, letting
down the hammers on wads-simply re-
moving caps sometimes leaves a little
illuminate on the nipple, and a blow on
the hammer when down discharges it.
Never draw u gun toward you by the
barrels.
More care is necessary in the use of a
gun in a boat than elsewhere, the limited
space, confined action and uncertain mo.
ton making it dangerous at the best. Il
possible no moro than two persons
should occupy a boat. Hammerless guns
are n constant danger to persons boat
ing.
Always clean your guns thoroughly as
soon as you return from a days sport
no matter how tired you feel. The con.
sequence Of its always being ready 70.

HE difference of speed OF tho two
plaaf5sIus arises from tla fact that the
TOP Of III: moving wheels, on %h.ch
tho flexible rli travels, has q forward
motion twice as fast as that Of the
axles, from which the slower moving
platform is supported, and this ratio
of one-half difference in speed Of the
two platforms would bc maintained
with wheels of any size. The platform
moving at the rate of three miles an
hour adjoins a stationary platform,
From which n can step on to the
movable platform without jar OF ln-
convenience, as almost any ~ readily
walks at this speed, while no greater
change is felt in stepping from the
slow to the faster moving platform, on
which are stationary cross seats. There
ave'gas pipe posts at intervals of 10
feet on the slower Moving platform.
for the convenience Of any one desiring
such assistance in stopping FROM the
stationary platform.
In this construction it will be noticed
that the moving sidewalk and the side
walk car do not stop at all, the differ.
entail speed allowing the passenger
to readily and conveniently get off at
any time, while the travel of tho ca
is continuous, the passenger stopping
himself instead of the a 1. With the
siX-n.ile continuous speed thus obtained
it is claimed that this method offers
great advantages for the moving of
largo crowds over short distances,
where the traffic is constant, aud this
method has been proposed for trans
porting visitors about the Fair grounds
during the Exposition period.
The motive power Is electricity, fur
nished by q Thomson Houston gener-
ator of 10? horse power. There are
three trucks provided with two Is
horse power Thomson-Houston motors,
each handling 25 platforms, the plat
forms being each i2 feet long, and
each connected with its predecessor
andt:aiier by an ordinary pin coupling.
The current is conveyed by Il trolley
wheel and pole from the feed wire be-
Meath the platform, the return current
being through the rails. The greatest
speed which has been attained on this
test structure is eighteen miles an
hour. The cost of constructing a side
walk railroad of this kind is evidently
far less than that Of the usual elevated
railroad, and, as there are no stops,
the power required TO operate 1T would
probably be mach less than half of
that of the present system for the same
volume of traffic. The section now
running is said to be practically
noiseloss.

general government to the exclusion
of all others.

Edison's Birthday.

Thomas A. Edison, the famous
"Wizard of Menlo Park as he is
called, was born on Feb. II, 1847,
and just about now is celebrating
his forty-fifth birthday. What a
useful life his has been. All the
world should join in making each of
his anniversaries memorable, for it
owes much to the kindly magicians.
The duplex telegraph, the telephone,
the microphone, the photograph,
the photograph, the incadescent
light, the electrical railway all the
perfect products of his master mind.
And this birthday is Of more than
ordinary Importance, as it marks
the practical completion of his
idea of electrical transportation. He
claims that all railways may be run
by electricity, and that many of us
will live to see it done. Perhaps; but
in the meantime the Saint Paul &
Duluth Railroad, fitted with the best
of modern steam appliances, will
continue to hold the popular title
OF ''The Duluth Short Line" and en-
Joy the favor of the public, which re-
CARDS it as the route between St.
Paul and Minneapolis and the head
of the lake. "The Duluth Short
Line" runs to and from Duluth,
West Superior, Taylors Falls and
Saltwater, and makes the closest
connections for all points east, west
or south. For information apply
