Given Another Successful Test,

Cape May, n. j.. Aug. 3,--The Holman
locomotive, with the friction geared
tracks, was given another trial, when
speed of ninety miles an hour was at
tanned and kept up for four miles, The
engine drew two cars well filled with
people, but evidently did not make the
best speed possible. The engine will
be tested on long distance run some
time next week. 1t moves along with
out jolting, and the faster it goes the
easier it seems to move.
The engine is 10 feet inches high and
the bottom of the drivers are four feet
above the rails, the space intervening
being taken up by the five friction
wheels under each driver. Hundreds
of people are coming to see the inven-
ton. Mr. Holman, who is Il years old
sat in the cab with the engineer, and
was delighted with the test.

WHEN DID THEY LIVE7

A Question Concerning the Lake Dwell
ers of Prehistoric Switzerland.
One of the most interesting questions
relating to the early history of Switzer-
land is that of the probable length OF
time that has elasped since the people
called the "Lake-Dwellers" occupied
the curious houses whose remains are
now found there. A fresh eXamina-
ton of this question has lately been
undertaken by M. Vouga.
The earliest of the lake-dwellers be-
longed to the age of stone, and they
were succeeded by others who made
weapons and implements of bronze
III. Vouga thinks that the people who
made the stone implements lived dur
ing only one, OF at most two, centuries
on the shores of the Swiss lakes, and
that for some reason, perhaps because
Of an inundation, they suddenly de-
serted their homes.
Then for 5000 years the waters CON
tinued to deposit a slowly thickenine
layer of mud upon the sites of the aban'
doned villages. At the end of that time
another people, who had acquired thu
art of making bronze, appeared upon
the scene, the lakes having in the mean
time, perhaps, sunk to their former
level. These people remained there
for two or three centuries, and then in
their turn disappeared, and another
layer of mud, occupying 1900 year:
more in the process of deposition, GOV
cred the remains of their dwellings ant
the relics of their art and industry.
