InterlOcking Switches.

Another thing the great exposition has
proved to our road is the undeniable useful
ness Of the interlocking switches. We were
about the first road to adopt the system and
naturally feel pride In its substantial sue
cess. This switch system stands rather
apart from the block signaling idea pure
and simple, inasmuch as 1t is intended nri-
marily to handle safely and expeditiouslv
an enormous mass of railroad traffic by IA
cilitating the control of the switches. The
main signal tower is within plain view of
the station and controls not only the ward
signals but every switch. Every move
ment of the lever which throws a switch
in the yard also throws the same switch in
the model that rises before the eyes of the
operator, so that glance would tell the
story IL by any chance a mistake was made
in the operation of the system Resides
the switch and signal system there are sub
sidiary indicators to show the condition of
points in the yard. The whole switch sys-
tenn can be controlled by one man. but II
takes a peculiarly cool and leyel-headaj
operator to do the work satisfactorily. The
incoming trains and the condition of things
at the station. The electrical plant for
operating these systems is obtained from
storage batteries in the basement of the
towers. These are charged by dynamo.
''The wholesale killing of people at rail-
road crossings has suggested still another
method or signaling and again electricity
was called upon to check the slaughter
This system of guarding crossings is the
best in existence far superior to human
watchfulness, but of course 1t is not per-
feet. The people in South Washington
know this The only perfect safeguard will
be the doing away with the crossings through
the adoption of an elevated or depressed
roadbed. Out in the country the efficiency
OF electric safeguards for railroad cross
ings has been substantially verified So
complete has this system been perfe tied
that the bells at the crossings begin ring
ing when the approaching trains are 2,300

The full mystery was cleared up on July
4, for OH that day the explorers stood on
the abrupt headlands of great bay indent-
ing the northeastern extremity of Green
land. The bluffs, rising abruptly 1000 feet
from the water, were almost entirely free
from snow. The land is of reddish brown
and covered with debris of the glacial
epoch. Flowers, insects and birds abound,
also grasses and musk oxen. Traces Of
foxes, hares and other animals were seen.
The bay was covered with the winters ice,
which was rapidly melting and would soon
set free the vast icebergs held as by an
chors in its icy fetters.
Dogs and men were treated TO Fourth of
July feast upon musk OK steaks and joints,
snow birds and preserved vegetables and
fruits.
The highest point reached was latitude
81 degrees 81 minutes, longitude "a degrees.
After passing five days in observations and
burying in a cairn record OF their discov-
cries to tell the world the wonderful story
which their lips might never be spared TO
reveal Peary and Astrup started to return
OH July9.
Peary's return route was farther inland
than the journey out. AT times they were
on the summit of plateau 5000 feet above
the sea. For two weeks their pathway was
SO dense that at times the head dog teams
were invisible from the sledges and steer
ing was done by taking compass directions
Of the wind. Once they were delayed two
days and nights by fierce storm of snow,
but In the main the journey was more rapid
than it had been northward, although the
hard snow crust had been turned into slush
by the intense summer heat.
The dog teams had been reduced by ac-
cident and disease to five animals, the large
sledge had been discarded with a great
weight of provisions that had spoiled in the
dry heat of the rocky headlands. The sledge
that bore the remaining food and equip
ments weighed but 1e pounds The explor-
ers, and their faithful dumb companions
as well, were sorely crippled from the hard
knocks and bruises received in weathering
sharp, icy cliffs and jagged, rocky barriers
and weakened from the monotony OF the
journey, hedged in as they had been for days
by impenetrable fogs and snow clouds that
created an isolation as gloomy and depress-
Ing as dungeon walls. AT every step the
heart beat quicker, for although it was a
step nearer home many an il lay between
them and safety.
On the 9th of August their journey Of IL
weeks came TO an end. That day they
itruck the head Of Mccormick bay aud
found the Kite anchored there rs rendez-
vous for searching parties out on the path
OF the daring explorer.
Peary and Astrup penetrated 500 miles
northwest Of Mccormick bay. Including
the detours they made around glaciers and
flords, they Travelled over 1900 miles. The
marvel is not so much in the distance COW
cred nor in the perils and hardships en-
counSered, but in the fact that two men,
knowing the awful risk, dared and suffered
1t all alone, and alone, too, from choice.

Humboldt glscier the snow was found to
be deep and soft. At times the dogs refused
to work, so heavy was tho pull. After
some days travel they came again 70 tho
hard snow crust and made an average OF 20
miles at each journey.
In order TO get around the flords and gla-
ciers which indent the western shore tho
explorers made long detours eastward,
which consumed in the aggregate several
days journeys. On June 8 storm set in,
which caused a lay up Of two days. When
the weather cleared, Peary found that they
were on the southern edge of trough Of q
glacier basin that could never be crossed.
Beyond, to the northwest In the intended
route. as far as the feldglass could reach,
the slopes were crevassed and broken by
what appeared huge breakers OF the sea
suddenly congealed into ice. Two daysw
lost in another detour to the east and south
east in order to avoid the trap. In crossing
the icy slopes they were met by furious
winds that strained their sledges and har-
ness, often threw down the dogs and again
and again threatened to sweep all hands
into the awful depths of the glacier beneath
them. The best dog of the team was in
jured in the struggle on the glacier slopes
SO that he had TO be killed. Two other
dogs, also Of the best, fell on the edge OF q
crevasse and went down the full length OF
their traces. There they hung without
foothold and no support but their trace
straps, until Peary and Astrup secured the
sledges and team and hoisted the strug-
Cling creatures to the surface.
When the explorers again reached the
open course to the northwest, they were
6,000 feet above the sea. A fog next delayed
them for 10 hours, and after IL cleared away
they sped on rapidly for some days. The
weather was that of warm June, and the
thermometer registered as high as n de-
grees. Snow that fell turned into slush,
and the party was stopped two days by
heavy roads when the dogs couldn't pull
the sledges through the freezing, sticky
snow. On the Goth Of June they reached
the eighty-second parallel and that day dis
covered that the land of the northwestern
coast line, which had been constantly in
view, was visible in the north, the north
east and also in q DETECTING line to the
southeast. Like the sight of strange grasses
floating on the sea to Columbus, indicating
land ahead and new continent, those new
and bold coast lines, dark red precipices and
mountains capped with icy domes half hid
den in the clouds revived the heart Of Peary,
and he turned from the northward course
to the east. In that direction lay all that
remained of the secrets of Greenland. All
else was an open book. The surmises OF
DIR. Kane and Lockwood, made from OBJ
servations taken On the ice pack of those
red mountainous bluffs, were facts to Peary
and Astrup. Greenland has no north be-
yond the eighty-second parallel.

DEATH OF Il. j. NETTLETON.
One of Ashtabula 3 Most Prominent

One of Ashtabula q Most Prominent
Citizens Passes Away.
This morning the community was
greatly shocked to learn of the death of
Harvey J. Nettleton, one of the best
known and most highly esteemed citi-
zens of Ashtabula, whose death occurred
this morning about o'clock.
Mr. NettletOn was taken sick last
Thursday, his sickness resulting from
rupture or hernia which was the cause
of his death. From the start he was con-
fident that he would never recover On
Tuesday he was much worse and at a
council OF physicians held in the even
ing it was decided that his only chance
lay in surgical operation, and that was
very small. Mr.. Nettleton was informed
of the decision and replied that he would
die anyway, but was anxious to undergo
the operation, and about midnight it
was undertaken, Mr.. Nettleton having
walked to and climbed onto the opera
ting table alone. He was failing very
ton to be of any avail and he died in
about four hours afterward
Before submitting to the operation he
bid all those present goodby, having also
previously instructed his wife as to his
business matters.
Harvey j. Nettleton was born in Ash
tabula, July 2, 1917, and was consequent.
ly rs years of age last July. When a
young man he went to work on the farm
where is now situated his homestead,
then owned by the late Buckley Hub
bard, on which he has ever since lived,
having purchased the property many
years ago from his savings.
While still in the employ of Mr.. Hub
bard, he was married to Miss Jane
Empey, on February 49, 1S41 She died
blessed with six children, two of whom
died in infancy. The others, except one,
are married and are Mrs. o. S. Gillette,
Indianapolis, Ind; E. M. Nettleton,
Covington, Va; Mrs. A. Cunningham
and Miss Nellie NJ. Nettleton, Milwaukee,
Wisconsin,.
On May Is, 1876, he married for his
second wife, Miss Mary P Williams who
survives him.
The deceased has always been a sue
cessfu business man, possessing those
traits which distinguish the successful
man, to a rare degree. Through his in
domitable energy and thrift, he accumu-
lated large property.
He was, and had been for number of
years, President of the Ashtabula Ma
tional Bank, now known as the Ashta-
bula Bank. He has always been identi
fed with the growth and business inter-
ests of Ashtabula, and was widely known
and highly respected and esteemed by
ALL Few men there are in Ashtabula
who will be more missed than Harvey J.
Nettleton.
The time for holding the funeral can
not be decided upon until members of
the family are heard from, but it will
probably be held Friday.-Ashtabatta
