A Novelty in Trolley Roads.

In an electric road recently con.
structed in England a radical departure
from American methods has been
made. A trolley wire is suspended
from arms projecting from steel col
umns; no guy wires are employed, as
the steel wires are especially designed
to withstand severe strains. At the
corners, the trolley wire, instead of fol,
lowing a curve of the same radius OF
the track, as in the American systems,
is turned on an angle, the whole system
depending on the lexibility of the
trolley arm, or side collector as it is
called, which automatically engages the
trolley wire in any position from two to
twelve feet from the side Of the Car.
Another change from American prac-
tice is the adoption of a pressure of
only $50 volts. The cars are only
twenty-five feet long, and are equipped
with two motors of fifteen brake horse
power, running at 400 revolutions

Perhaps There Will Be One Hundred
Little Pythons.

DANBURY, Conn, August 27.-Dr.
Knox has possessed for year two big
African snakes, Adam and Eve. He
has kept them in a cage in the back
office.
When the Doctor opened his office
on Monday he examined his snake col
lection. He saw what he supposed
were several new potatoes lying under
the python snake Eve. He opened
the cage door to remove the supposed
potatoes. Going close to the snake it
Kissed at him. This made him pause.
He took a second look and was sur
prlsed to see about a hundred snake
eggs under her.
The eggs vary in size and are rather
heavy. They are soft to the touch,
oval in form and of ashy gray color.
The smallest Of the eggs is the size and
shape of ducks. The largest one is
no thicker, but about six inches long,
They are slightly speckled. 1t is said
that the shell will become hard.
Pythons before have laid eggs in this
country, but there is no record of any
snakes having been Matched. At the
