A test was made few days ago on the

ing railway signal The principal feature
of the signal is a revolving semaphore
arm. On bracket attached to the signal
post is a box containing an electric mo-
tor, which revolves the semaphore When
the block ahead is clear the semaphore
revolves, indicating to the engineer of the
train by its motion that he also may con-
tinue in m5tion. When the track is not
clear the semaphore remains stationary
in a horizontal position. the same as the
ordinary block signal when in danger
position. The inventor OF this signal
claims many advantages for this rotary
signal the most important of which is
that the engineer cannot fail 10 interpret
its language. At night a signal lamp re-

ternately red and white lights. When the
signal is at danger" only the red light
shows. The apparatus is quite simple.

 Most people know a great deal about the girls who ride bicycles, but very few know anything at all about the girls who help to make bicycles It is never the same girl. Most of the girls who make bicycles think it rather unlady- like to ride them.
 There are about 500 girls in this city engaged in making rubber tires for bi- cycles. Miss Lizzie Burns is a repre- sentative typo Of the girls who work in the tir2 factory. She lives in west side teBement. It isn't bad as tenements go ill New York. It's an old fashioned house without air shafts and of the four consecutive closets type. The little front parlor is evidence of the love for prettysthings and home and the self sac rifce of a girl who gets only $7 D week. There fssa brussels carpet on the fieor, haireIoth suit of furniture, and a tall mirror between the windows reaches to the ceiling There arc q big clock on the mantel and two gorgeous blue glass vases The pictures are mostly photo graphs and caayons of her parents and her two brothers.

Among the Princess Maud's wedding presents is a tea jacket made for her by the members of the dressmaking class at the Peoples palace. It is of pure white satin of the Louis XV period, with tight fitting tailor made back and vest set in by revers of silver and white brocade The puff elbow sleeves are fin ished by turned back cuff on the bro eade, and ruifies of embroidered white chiffon match the frill at the neck
 The whole trousseau is marked by the exquisite taste and elegant simplicity for which the bride mother the Prin- cess of Wales, is eminently distinguished in the matter of her own and her daugh- ters' clothes
 A point noted in the description of the millinery of the wardrobe is that in seven hats described six have quills among their trimmings. There are a black straw with black quills, cream lace and black satin ribbon; a white straw with lace, white satin ribbon and white quills another fancy black straw. with pink roses, black roses, choux of black tulle and black quills; a toque of peacock blue velvet bordered with Russian sable and at one side a bunch of quills shaded to repeat tho tones of the velvet and sable; Tam O'Shanter of tan leather with black vel. vet and natural owls quills, and toque of brown straw trimmed with rosettes of brown tulle and old pink velvet roses and the inevitable, this time brown, quills. Evidently quills arc popular with English royalty. = London Cor ,,rer,fnl, llnrnn

women h Bicycle oostums.

We are not goieg either to oppose or advocate short skirts, bloomers or even knickerbockers. Whatever the rider of a bike deems necessary for comfort or adaptability to tho exercise we say let her wear. but-and here is where our great revolt occurs-do not let her wan der through city streets on foot or gayly promenade at gatherings where the ma lority of those present are eonventionally attifed unless she is desirous of attract ing attention and enjoys the comment and remark that her conspicuous garb always attracts, for conspicuous 1t is off the wheel, no matter how modest it may seem on.

Of course at q bicycle meet or at the clubhouse where members as- semble bicycle attire is the rule, and the woman so arrayed is not eonspicu- ons, but the short skirted get up is no more i'll keeping in | general assemblage than bathing suit would be.
 It may be imagination, but it seems to the writer that the women who thus publicly parade acquire an air of bold ness which perhaps Is assumed to hide the innate embarrassment that they must feel Bicycling as an exercise has received tho highest tcommendation, and it can be indulged ill with no lessening of woman 8 dignity if she chooses to carry her femininity into this vocation the same IS into sewing or embroidery. But whfn she so far forgets herself as to sWagger about in garb not intended for walking purposes, she calls upon her self the unpleasant remarks of bystand- CTS, and it is to awake her to . knowl- edge of this fact that we implore her t0 stay on her wheel antil she gets to some spot where her costume is in keeping with that worn by tie majority of the others present.

 Tn the administration of police justice @ it has always been observed that this class of upfor- tunate and involuntary offenders are given heavy fines while those guilty of greater offenses are let off. with less irksome penalties.
 It is true that the public must be protected against idle and vicious vaeabonds and vagrants, but such cases as these should receive Justice tempered with mercy" In times like these men cannot help being ldIe. Their idleness, per 
 chance. is not voluntary, but en- forced upon them by the artificial conditions that at present attend the unsettled conditions of finance in this country.
 There are millions of idle men m this country who are deserving of the sympathy rather than the pun ishment of the public.
 And then, if our Police Court in tends to take upon itself the resPon- sibility of punishing those who are Idle and have no visible means of supnort. we would call the atten- fien of His Honor the Police Judge, to the number of natige-aRd. de de dead..h9ee s.ts te-s,T;4r sg,T;4r0 were never known to do a days work or pay a bill in their lives.
 Tbera are some who have the will but not the work; there are others who can get the work but have not the will.

Women shonIa Now Use Lemons.

IIhhls IS the weather for lemons-lem- ons within and lemons without. Come, confess, is there anything so refreshing as the flavor of lemon in ice water these warm days? Or is there anything more comforting to the skin than lemon applied upon the face? Perhaps you are not ill the habit of using it the latter way. If you are not, put 8 slice of lemon in the water with which you wash your face and observe how it removes the oil and freshens the skin Now and then, too, it is pleasant and beneficial to rub the undiluted juice of the lemon upon the face before retiring, only this should not be done oftener than twice a week It clears out the impurities of the skin and closes the pores, opened unduly with precipitation. But 1t is easy to see that this might be oyerd0ne. In tho tropics the ladies use the lemon or the lime in the bath almost always. Lemon water makes a fine hair wash, too. The pulp of the lemon can be rubbed vigor- ously upon the scalp. No soap need be used, but after few minutes the lemon can be washed out and the towel yigor- ously applied. The lemon gives a gloss to the hair and stimulates growth. It delays grayness too, Of course, every body knows that it is one of the essen tials of manicuring. It removes tho stains from the finger nails and displaees the superhuous cutiele around the edge of the nails. As tooth wash it is ex- ceedingly refreshing and effective, and as 2 remover of stain or dirt from white goods or straw hats it has no equal. h short, in very hot weather there IS no one thing lady can have on her dress ing table which will add more to her comfort than tho lemon. = Omaha World Herald
