as originally given in the journal quoted;
Procure two boxes the same size, high
enough to reach above the window sill
and about 1s inches in width, and anoth-
or long, narrow one to place between
them, the two outer boxes to be fur
nished with two shelves each for hold
ing hats and bonnets, the center box to
be divided into compartments for hold
ing boots, shoes and rubbers.
The boxes should be planed until
smooth, the cracks filed with putty, and
then painted outside and in with enamel
paint. Curtains hung from brass rods
are placed in front of them, and cushion
with back and sides is made to fit into
the window seat, which will be found a
most convenient place for putting on and
taking off boots and shoes.

The introduction and recent rapid exten-
sion of block signal systems Of various
kinds have led to the almost universal en-
ployment Of semaphores even where an alb
solute block system Is not maintained. In
these systems the road is divided up into
spaces or blocks, and no train is allowed to
enter any block unless the last preceding
train shall have passed beyond it's limits.
The limits of each space or block are
marked by signals, usually semaphores,
operated directly by a signalman, or else
controlled by him through the intervention
Of compressed air and electricity.
Some railroads, unable to incur the ex-
pense of installing and maintaining first

In times of heavy traffic, however, these

combination of mechanical and electrical
devices, each lever that moves a signal Is
locked in position by the man in the tower

Great Gambling AMI Lottery Scandal
In Germany.
HoV VICTIMS WERE FLEECED
Bankers, Society Leaders and n Relative
of the Emperor Mixed UP I'm the
AFFAIR Opening of the Trial OF Max
Rosenberg and Julius Bsssemar.

BERLIN, Oct. 90. The trial opened In
Hanover OF Max Rosenberg and julius
Hesseman, bankers, who are charged with
completely in the gambling and lottery
ticket scandal that has caused much dis.
cussion in German society. The modus
operandi OF the gang, which included per-
sons moving in the most select circles OF
Germany, was to advance money to the
victims whom they had previously feeced
at cards, compelling the borrowers TO ac-
cept three quarters of the loans In Bruins
tickets. The conditions of the loans were
such as to prevent the borrowers from re-
ceiving more than 2, 900 marks out of the
highest possible prize that might be drawn,
the lenders taking the remainder.
Max Rosenberg admits that he disposed
of 8, l04 of these lottery tickets and that
he made personal profit Of 200, 600 marks
out OF the transactions. Rosenberg also
says that Albert Hesseman, who is also
under arrest, profited to the extent Of $780,
COO marks.
Julius Suessman denies that he had any
thing to do with the scandal.
Select Society People.
It Is said that certain relative of the
emporer had at least guilty knowledge
of the doings of the gang, and 1t Is alleged
that in a recent interview with his majesty
he made full confession.
Besides the Rosenbergs, Suessmans and
Albert Hesseman, there are accused OF
completely in the frauds several others
well known in social circles. Two Of the
persons accused fed the country to escape
arrest.
More than one hundred army officers,
ranking from lieutenant to major general,
have been summoned to give evidence
Great interest Is evsSywhere manifested in
the case
The questions put by the judge brought
out the fact, already well-known, that
very many military and society men had
fallen into the hands of the gang, and been
badly fleeced. Il was also brought out
that Lieutenant Won Plessen, one Of the
victims, had made Capt. Johann Faehrle
and Arnold Lichtner, a banker, sign an
admission that they had cheated by means
Of marked cards.
For seventeen years Fachrle had been
roulette bankkeeper in various European
