A Bavarian Railroad Device.

An automatic device for locating and
clearly marking track defects is now
IN use on the Bavarian state railways.
The principle of the apparatus is based
on the fact that every low point or
other similar defect in line OF track
causes shock of greater or less in
tensity in a car passing over it. The
arrangement of the apparatus in the
inspection car is such that If the shock
exceeds certain degree of intensity a
squirting device is brought into opera
ton. from which either red or blue
liquid s squirted over the roadbed. ;,
making stripes from one foot TO seven
feet long and about two inches wide
The track sections requiring attention
are thus very plainly marked The
apparatus, it is claimed, will locate de-
fects which can not ordinarily be de-
tected by the track walker and will
afford evidence OF imperfectious in the
roadbed long before these win show
themselves by such signs a. battered
rail ends at joints, etc.-Philadelpsa

LAST OF A FAMOUS FAMILY.
Queen Wiihelmina Doomed by Consump-
tion-A Republic Possible.


tion-A Republic Possible.
Little Wilhelmina, queen of the
Netherlands, is believed to be doomed
to die with consumption, and the men
who rearrange the map of Europe are
already said to be discussing the pos
sibilities, for Wilhelmina, who is but
twelve years old, is the last direct rep
resentative of the Nassau-Orange
dynasty. There are some distant rel
atives of the young queen, including
an aunt, who is grand duchess of Sake
Weimer; but, according to the Roches-
ter Herald, no one of them has the
slightest claim to the throne. A plan
for preserving the territory of the
Netherlands will be frustrated if VIII
helmina dies. Her father, William
Ill, was grand duke of Luxembourg
When he died Luxumbo urg passed I'M
der the sovereignty of Duke Adolphus,
of the older branch Of the Nassau fam
lily. Shortly after the kings death his
daughter hand was promised to Prince
William, son of the ruler OF Luxum-
bourg. This prospective marriage
would have restored Luxumb ourg to
the Netherlands, but in the event of
Wilhemina's early death Luxembourg
VIII become practically a part Of the
German empire and it Will need all of
the wisdom of Hollands statesmen to
keep the whole kingdom from drifting
that way also. To escape from such
fate the Dutch might again form a
coalition with Belgium, but this would
be an unpopular alliance, as no love is
lost between the two countries on ac-
count of racial and RELIGIOUS differ
ences, to which ancient jealousies NAV
be added
1t is more likely that in such an
event the states general would elect
new monarch or possibly establish a
republic. Taken all in all, the house
Of Grange has more decent history
than any other dynasty in Europe
It's men have been brave warriors and
wise rulers; its women good wives and
mothers. To this rule, of course,
there are exceptions but not as many
as would be the case were a like opin-
ion expressed of other European
dynasties. This famous family takes
its name from Orange, dirty little
French town in the department of
Vaucluse, which was the capital of
small independent principality from
the eleventh to the sixteenth CEN
turtles. From its kings the Orange
house traced its descent. In 1881 the
last Of them died without issue. His
sister had married a count Of Nassau,
thus establishing the Nassau-Orange
line. This count was the father of the
famous William. who was the founder
Of the Netherlands. The William who
married Mary, of England, and be-
came William III, of England. was an
other distinguished prince of Orange
The later members of the family have
not especially distinguished them
selves, but their opportunities have
not been great.
