= At Knoxville is an elevated ferry which
is probably unique. It is an aerial cable
reaching from the heart Of Knoxville
across the Holston river to the bluffs op-
posite. These bluffs are $50 feet high.
Upon them is a beautiful pleasure resort
called Unaka park, and it was to facili-
tate the journey Of visitors to Unaka
park that the cable ferry was built. Two
wire cables, each having a breaking
strain Of 60 tons, stretch from the top Of
the bluffs across to Knoxville. The pro-
polling cable is half an inch in diameter
and is wound and unwound upon drum
heads in the fashion familiar on cable
roads. The distance from the center Of
the city to the bluffs by this air ferry is
a little less than one-quarter Of a mile.
The car would hold 16 persons properly
seated if it were in a European country,
but being in America it holds as many
as can be crowded into it. In going from
Knoxville up to the bluffs the car is
wound up by the cable and requires 81 81
minutes for the passage. On the return
trip it just runs down hill itself and
takes half minute.

Fortune Favors the Small Town.

Within five years, through the opera
ton OF the interstate commerce law, the
small town has been placed upon an
equality with the larger city in the mat
ter Of freight rates. Previously prohibit
DRY rates ruled wherever there was but
one railroad. Cost Of transportation was
as unstable as the wind Cut rate fol-
lowed pool rate, one extreme the other,
and each succeeding list of january ter
minated all The law now has given
permanency to the conditions which reg
ulate the carrying tariff. Rates are based
upon distance and not upon the elements
Of competition. This fact rebounds to
the advantage Of the small town, for
freights being equal the manufactures
naturally seeks the location where his
employees can obtain lowest living and
cheapest rents or perchance by the exer-
oise OF thrift and energy may gain in
dependence and secure homes. Many
places which were virtually at stand
still before the enactment by congress of
the interstate law have since doubled
In population and become actual man
ufacturing centers. A village possesses
advantages for the laborer and conse-
quent advantage for the employer which
cannot exist in populous and area cover
ing cities.

Japan's New Constitution.

In spite Of the glowing hopes based on
its adoption, all is not lovely by any
means under Japan's new constitution.
That country is having something like
the same kind of trouble as now disturbs
England. Already since the adoption Of
the new constitution the Japanese par.
lament has been twice dissolved by the
emperor. Like the house of commons,
the lower house of the Japanese parlia-
ment insists that it's will is the will Of
the people. The Japanese commons UNI
dertakes to rule the whole empire The
emperor gave the people a constitution
voluntarily. It was not forced from
him, as most constitutions have been
from rulers. In that document the pow
ers of the lower house were distinctly
set forth.
During the past winter the lower house
found the emperor's cabinet distasteful
to it for some reason. It therefore at
tackled that body and made matters very
warm for the members, with the inten-
ton of forcing them to resign. The in
tention was to have them replaced by an
imperial advisory council more subservi-
ent to the commons. 4:4 r
The emperor, however, frustrated this
amiable intention at once by using the
powers conferred on him..by the new con.
stitution and summarily dissolving par.
lament. Legislation is stopped until a
new parliament can be elected. It would
be rather strange if the condition Of ia,
pan should turn out to be worse than II
was before she had a constitution.

Policemen and the Drama.

If anybody appreciates the drama, it is
your policeman. At theaters where he
is on duty at night he cannot always see
all of play himself. He must parade
up and down about the entrance for a
time, but it goes hard if after the throng
have taken their seats he does not slip in
and enjoy the aesthetic surroundings and
the superb delineations Of human emo
ton. He not only enjoys this himself,
but he brings his family and all his rela-
tives to become thoroughly educated in
dramatic art. This is we'll. Nothing is
better than that people should learn in
their youth to be judges of high art, not
to say high kicking. Your guardian in
blue steps up jauntily to the box Office
and says to the ticket man, ''Say, I'm
on duty here tonight" Then he gives a
little ahem and proceeds to remark:
"Say, I've got me sister here wild her
chicks. It's all right, hey?''
Usually it is all right, for policeman
on duty is greater man than the presi-
dent. But some theatrical managers
are very unreasonable. They actually
object to deadheading whole families
night after night simply because these
job lots Of humanity are kin to police.
man. In all the cities of this country
the practice Of giving free entertain.
ment to police parties at theaters is the
vogue. Some of the managers are sc
obstreperous as to say they will not
stand it any longer. They VOW to break
up the custom if they break up Their
theaters.

Sanitation and Health.

From 100 to 1850 the death rate in
London was so high that the population
stagnated. In the former year the in
habitants numbered 665, 900 and in the
latter year 653, 900. During this period
the deaths We're in the ratio of about
one per 80 persons living. By 1901 the
population had crept up to 777, 900, and
the deaths had fallen to one in al per-
sons living. This great improvement in
the state Of public health in London was
not, except to trifing extent, the re-
suit Of sanitary legislation. People
were becoming more enlightened on
many matters affecting their health,
partly owing to a more general knowl-
edge Of chemistry, physiology and other
sciences relating to man and his sur
roundings When those intrusted with
the conduct Of public affairs became
aware how much the health of the peo-
pie was affected by bad water, by foul
emanations and even cesspools, and by
too great a density of population, they
began to secure supplies of pure water,
to construct proper house drains and
street sewers, to remove Systematically
filth from houses and to widen streets
The PRONUNCIATION of the natural laws of
health preceded the enactment of laws
Of health by the state. Jenner's discov-
cry Of prophylaxis in smallpox had for
Its corollary the vaccination laws. The
chemical analysis of water was the ba-
sis Of acts Of parliament relating to wa
ter and rivers. Cameron at

The Press Club League.

Some three years ago a young Ameri-
can newspaper man, Mr.T. j. Keenan, ,Jr.,
Of the Pittsburg Press, was struck with
the bright thought of forming great
international union of press clubs. The
union should include mems and women
separate press organizations as well as
those to which both sexes belonged. The
federation was to extend all over the
United States, into Canada, and take in
Europe. Even Chinese or Hottentot
press club might belong to it.
The aim was to spread the idea Of fra
ternity and solidarity among newspaper
people everywhere and to make them
unite in measures for their common ben
eft. The league was formed according
to the programme laid down by Mr..
Keenan, and few other newspaper
men. One Of the things it has already
achieved is the beginning Of home fol-
INDECENT, invalid and superannuated
journalists. The home will occupy a
beautiful site in Ramapo valley, New
Jersey. The ground was donated fol
this purpose by Mr.. Vernham, a wealthy
gentleman who liked journalists.
Another part Of the programme of the
International League Of Press Clubs is
an annual convention and junketine
tour, and which is greater, the pleasure
or profit Of that tour, no man has as YET
been able to say. This year, the list Of
May, the International League, accepting
the hospitable invitation Of the Georgia
Woman's Press association, will convene
at Atlanta. Any press club which has
as many as IS members is entitled tx
join the International league. Every
town Of any size at all ought to have {
press club with at least rs members.

The latest Terror


e Thomas a. Edison finishes, as he ex-s
poets to, his latest invention, then life
will be less worth living than ever. The
device is nothing less than q machine
which can take 46 plot graphs in q sec
ond. Forty-six times q second is about
as rapidly as any living thing can change
its muscular movements, SO that the new
machine Will make asuccession Of pic
lures Of man as fast as he can make
motions, whether walking or trying to
catch a train that just glides off as he
comes within IS feet Of It, painting and
putting. What is more, the demoniacal
new Edison machine will have phone
graph attachment. This will register
the words the man who is left will pour
forth in a torrent on the air as he sees
the train disappear. It will mercilessly
record every wheeze of his scant breath
as it gurgles forth from his surcharged
breast.
After that the sly dime museum man
who has snapped a kodak on him will
make a reprod uction Of the whole humil-
itating scene, naughty words and all,
and put it into nickel in tthe-slot ma
chine. The rustic visitor in the railway
station or ferry house will drop nickel
in the slot, and, behold! there will be
Mr.. Fatman, in all his humiliation and
despair, in the very act Of relieving his
mind by the worst words he knows.
Nobody will be safe when the new
Edison photograph, as he calls it, is on
the market. The tenderest partings Of
lovers, the old mans fendish chuckle
when he sets the dog on the unwelcome
sutton, the very expression and language
of my lady when she narrates the private
affairs of her dearest friend to woman
who doesn't like her friend, will be there
with pitiless fidelity as Edison says, ssa
hundred years after one is dead" We
can never know when the photograph
fend is on our track.
Forty-s photographs second will
reproduce as many motions as the eye
can follow. These photographs, being
set in motion one after the other by a
well understood mechanical arrange
ment and focused on exactly the same
level, will produce the effect of con
tinuous panorama. The photograph &C
companying the moving scene will en-
able science to reproduce perfectly and
preserve a whole theatrical play, opera
or dinner party. That is Edison's idea.

Two Kinds Of Business Training.

Two Kinds OF Business Trainin9. #s
Edward w. Box continues his papers
IN The Cosmo Titan on the subject Of
young men and business. The latest is
devoted to the duties Of employers. Mr..
Box says, among other things, that he
honestly believes an employer consults
bis wisest interests BY voluntarily in
creasing the salaries Of those who de-
serve i. a raise IN pay comes with Pc
culiar graciousness when the employee
Is not obliged to ask for it, wringing it,

right minded employee who gets such
increase will redouble his efforts and
will regard his employer from that time
on as his friend. Nothing SO encourages
better work as appreciation for past good
work. n .55
OF the two systems Of business train
ing in vogue, the honest and the dishon-
est one, Mr.. Box says:
AS an Office boy had the most perfect train
Ing possible to become an accomplished liar.
! was told at least half a dozen times day to

ness and honesty were the current coins in
business, and yet day after day was shown
the fals1ty OF 1t by my employer. I refused to
lie for myself, and yet was compelled to lie
Tor another. When became a copyist, it was
asked of me to write letters which knew to
be absolutely contrary to existing facts. And
yet was In the employ of one of the largest
corporations in the world and one Of honorable
repute.
MY direct chief was a man esteemed alike
in business and social circles. He was too. a
recognized pillar in the church. The result
was. as can see now, that I formed an en-
t1rely wrong conception of the true and best
methods of business. 1t was not long before

representation. In my second position found

learned in my previous post. My lines were
thrown, most fortunately for me, with q man
to whom integrity was more than policy.
From him learned healthful lessons. At his
side started. His influence happily was
strong upon me, and the respect he command
ed from me at that time has remained with
me ever since. He taught me well, so well
that, although moro than Is years have passed
the lessons learned from him are fresh
with me today and as pleasant and profitable
to recall as when Twas his rather amateurish
stenographer, and, as liked to believe, his pri-
| vate secretary. -
I can recall now that he never treated me as 8
boy, but always gave me that feeling that
had the instincts of a man which some day
| would be destined to realize. He had faith il
me, and he did not hide it from me. Step by
step he remained at my side. graduating me
1 from one position to another, until he felt
had found my proper atmosphere. His han6
always steadied me; his influence, I felt, was
never far from me- And today, if have one
feeling more thoroughly satisfactory than any
other, it is that the adviser Of my boyhood ani
my friend of today, Mr.. Clarence Cary Of New
York, believes that his confidence in me wa
