In recent electric road construct,
ed in England a radical departure
from American methods has been
made. A trolley wire is suspended
from arms projecting from steel
columns. No guy wires are en-
ployed, as the steel wires are especial
ly designed to withstand severe
strains. At the corners the trolley
wire, instead of following curve of
the same radius as the track, as in
the American systems, is turned on
an angle, the whole system depend.
ing on the fexibility of the trolley
arm, or side collector, as it called,
which automatically engages the
trolley wire in any position from 2 to
II feet from the side of the car. An
other change from American prac-
tice is the adoption of a pressure of
only $50 volts. The cars are only 22
feet long and are equipped with two
motors of 15-brake horsepower run
ming at 400 revolutions.-New York

A letter Writer without sIodesty.

The contents of great portion of
the White House mail if given out
for publication would afford infinite
amusement to the public. During the
last administration Mrs. Harrison re-
ceived letter in which the writer,
after stating at legnth the pleasure
she had experienced in reading all
published descriptions of Mrs. Harri-
sons gowns during the season, closed
with the request that the mistress of
the White House would kindly for
ward samples of each one. In order
that any undue confusion might be
avoided it was further decided that
to the samples should be appended
tags giving the date and occasion of
note on which the gown was first
worn.-Kate Fields Washington.
