only an accommodation for the company.

this case, but the public is not the COM

A SAFETY SIGNAL.

An Automatic Device That Is Being
Adopted on English Railways.
An apparatus having an important
bearing on railway signaling has been
invented by Mr.. r. G.. Marks, and has
been in use for some months past at the
Wakefield station of the Lancashire and
Yorkshire railway, in the signaling serv-
ice of which company Mr.. Marks has
had some years experience. 1t is very
ingenious, and is specially applicable in
signal cabins, where trains or engines
have to be shunted across from one main
line to the other to wait temporarily
until other trains have passed the cabin.
This appliance is placed upon shelf
behind the levers in the signal box and
under the instrument shelf, and con-
sists, in the first place, of pivoted arm
having a catch piece at its outer ex-
tremity. This catch is made to engage
with the crossover lever, which it thus
locks. When it is required to pull this
lever over the pivoted arm is pushed
aside. This action brings into play an
arrangement of automatic locking gear.
which instantly falls upon and locks the
home signal levers, so that the signal
man cannot accidentally pull these
levers over, and so, by forgetfulness,
show line clear which in reality has
a train standing on it.
The contrivance is very simple and
purely mechanical, upon both of which
grounds it appeals to signal men, who
are liable to error at times through press
of various matters at the moment when
the closest attention is needed. The ap-
pliance will also protect trains or engines
after the signal man has signaled the en-
gine driver to draw past the cabin up to
the crossover road points, there tempo
rarily to wait to be shunted on to the
| opposite main line. In fact whenever
the apparatus is applied it cannot fail to
act as II preventive Of any mistake being
made by the signal mans forgetfulness.
The success of the tprotracted and
practical test of this appliance on the
Lancashire and Yorkshire railway has
led to the company's agreeing to its gen
eral adoption on that line. The officials
of the board of trade also have so far in
dicated their approval of Mr.. Marks in
vention as to consent specially to inspect
! its working. The contrivance is un-
doubtedly of considerable importance to
railway men and of interest to the trav-
cling public. Times.

The play with the greatest number of
speaking parts is the passion Play"
which is performed every tenth year at
Ober-Ammergau, a little village of / ,349
inhabitants, forty-fve miles southwest
of Munich. Seven hundred actors are
required, who all belong to the village.
1t is held in a large open air theater,
which accommodates 5000 spectators.
1t is the only existing specimen of the
medieval mysteries on miracle plays
which We're general in this and other
countries in the Middle Ages. The vii
layers regard the Passion Play" as a
solemn act of religious worship, and the
performances are characterized by the
greatest reverence. The proceeds are
devoted to the good of the community,
after betrayal of the costs and payment
Of a small remuneration to the actors.
The principal parts are usually hered-
itary i'll certain families, and are as
signed with regard to moral character
as we'll as dramatic ability. 1t is con-
sldered disgrace not to be allowed to
take part in the play, and the part of
Chrlst Is looked upon as one of the high
est honors. The performance, which
lasts nine hours, is attended by many
thousands Of European and American
Ylsltors.-London Tit-Bits.

Ticklish Position of a Lion Tamer.

From Bordeaux comes the report of a
tragic scene which occurred in menag-
erie there. While Alexiano, the owner
of the show, was in the cage of the lion
Brutus and the lioness Marquise-both
exceedingly dangerous animals-an in
toXicated person among the spectators
began to indulge in semisavage whoops
and shouts. The brawler was silenced
by coercion for time, but began his
noise just as the tanner had his head in
the mouth of the lioness. The animal
which was in a very excited condition,
became more so on hearing the shouts,
and half closed its ponderous jaws on its
master.
There was % cry of horror through the
menagerie, and it was fully expected
that the tanner had been mortally in
jured. AleXiano however, drew his
head out all right, and it was seen that
blood was flowing from two deep wounds
in his face, one near the left eye and the
other in the right jaw. The lioness be-
gan to below. Alexiano whipped it on
the sides, and then, with amazing in
trepidity, bent down, opened the animals
mouth and again put his head inside it,
drawing it out once more amid loud
acclamations. The drunken person who
had nearly succeeded in causing the
tanners death became sober enough to
understand the seriousness of the stu
alton, and prudently retreated before the
spectators had time to chastise him.

Car Fare Etiuuette.

The other day man whose bearing
and appearance betokened breeding and
fashion put a woman aboard a Broad
way street Car. He found a seat for
her, stood an instant taking a calm and
easy leave of her, then lifted his hat and
passed out, halting on the platform to
pay her fare and tell the conductor at
what street she wished to leave, having
managed everything while the car was
going a block
Another man, with equally civil in
tentions, but perhaps not so punctilious
in ceremonials, would have merely
stopped the car and assisted her aboard,
without paying her fare or getting on at
all. 1t is always easy to let the man dc
as he feels inclined. .--Her Point of View
