Even in this day Of railroad wonders,
with engines that can squirt at the rate
OF liz miles an hour, it seems remark
able idea that provides for passengers
changing cars on trains that run at
the rate of sixty miles an hour without
the slightest cessation Of speed The
latest idea Is wonderful travelling
railroad station in the form of a car
with vestibuled bridge at the side.
1t provides for limited train, or an
express that is unlimited, that shall run
through from New York to Chicago,
for example, without making a single
stop travelling steadily at the rate of
sixty miles an hour. To bring this

scoffed at when first suggested, and
suppose mine will meet with the same
fate"
How will you manage about rum
ming through cities where there is a
speed limit, getting over switches and
all that sort of thing at so miles an
hour on he was asked
The solution of that problem is
simple. Elevate the tracks, mean the
two tracks over which the auxiliary
and the express trains would rum Then
1t wouldn't be necessary to pay any
attention to speed limits or switches.
Of course, don't mean elevate the
tracks ell the way, but only at such
points at which the obstacles to which
you refer will be found
Mr.. Dosser's plan certainly possesses
the merit of ingenuity and novelty.
Railroad men will undoubtedly con-
slider his idea, and regard 1t as of the
highest interest.

PRINT PAPER POOL.
Western Makers VIII Enter the New
Com bfnationu.

= NEW YORK. Dec. PA delegation
of Wisconsin paper manufacturers,
headed by J. Al Kimberly, have been
in this city for several days past, con-
ferring with representatives Of East
ern manufacturers of white paper used
by newspapers, with view to entering
the pool now forming. 1t is believed
that the most prominent firms of the
West will agree to the proposed COM
bination. Allotment and percentage
are the main questions. The trade
in the West differs from that in the
East, and the prospects of an open
market for concerns situated at dis.
lance from the great center is be-
lieved to be one of the objects of the
proposed union. All that now remains
to complete the union Of Eastern man
ufacturers seems to be formal action
concerning questions of contract and
agreement. Although most Of the
manufacturers are identified with the
production of other lines of paper. it
is stated positively that the negotia-
tons now pending concern the news
paper trade only. and have nothing to
do with the manufacture of other
kinds. The work of organization has
been systematized by. a series of COM
nfttees.

MINE BURNED OUT.
Another Disaster for the. Spring Hill
osr-.. COIHery.

e.Ar-.s CoIHery.
HALIFAX, N. s., Dec. 2s.-Another
great disaster has overtaken the Spring
Hill coal mines. Just five years ago,
the mines were wrecked by a great
explosion and 100 lives lost. It took
the best part of a year to get the col
liery in working order again. 1t was
splendidly equipped and gave employ
ment to 1000 men in the pits. About 5
were discovered to- be on fire, The
fire originated in the pipe way Of the
east scope, in the S00-foot level. 1t
soon ate its way into the ], 300 level and
developed into q raging furnace. When
Government Inspector Gifpin arrived,
fire was issuing frHuI, every opening Of
the mine TIVE essDplas were burned,
and the bank head had to be torn away.
The miners worked hard to save their
source Of livelihood, but all their efforts
in that direction were fruitless. They
tried to prevent the air going into the
mine by stopping up every airway.
Mr.. Gilpin had to call the men from
this work, as 1t was attended with
great risk to their lives, should an ex-
plosion occur. which might be expect
ed at any minute.
The flames shot 100 feet into the air,
the reflection being visible at Amherst.
The loss of the east slope is believed
to be complete, the machinery will be
ruined. AT p. M, Friday, the west
slope was reached all right. but the men
will have hard work to save it. The
fire caught from an overheated steam
pipe connected with the driving ma
chinery. The men worked up to- the
time the fire caught and got out safe
ly. The mine has but three slopes,
north, east and west. 1t is likely that
Smost serious damage by fire Will be
confined to the east slope in which
it started. The fire seems to be burn
ing itself out. The loss will be enor-
nous and the fire will cause great
restitution among the miners as even
il the fire does not spread through the
entire mine, it is considered doubtful

get thousands of quail every year and
let them loose. Our members want to
shoot quail. but they. do not thrive
well here, so we have to import them.
We let out from 800 to thousand at
time, and 1t is not uncommon for q
dog to chase up 500 out of single
cover. We have so many deer here
that we have to put a net around the
club house grounds to keep them away
from the house. You may see score

$50 they could" replied the game
keeper, "but we have limit to the
amount one man can shoot. He can
kill only so many quail or pheasants
in day and only so many deer in a
season. During the summer the game
gets very tame, but 1t soon grows
wild when the members come down
here in the winter, and 1t is good
sport"
TURKEY AND PHEASANT SHOOT
ING.
Some of the best sport upon Jekyl
island is in hunting pheasants and
turkeys. The pheasants have been
imported from England. One hundred
were brought over in 1885, and of these
only seventy eight lived. In one sea-
son they laid 1000 eggs. which were
Matched out by barn-yard hens. When
the little pheasant chicks had grown
they were turned out into the woods
The next year 100 more hen pheasants
were imported, and now the woods
swarm with them. Wild turkeys are
native to the region. Theysare to be
found in the oak and pine woods. They
are very shy, and 1T takes a turkey
call to bring them out. 1t is two and

best, and it will be an absolute neces-
sity that the roadbed be almost fault
less, for any unusual variation in mo-
ton or an ugly jump would be apt to
have q bad effect on the trains, and
result in disaster. and death.
This train that Mr.. Dosser proposes
to have all records distanced by will Of
necessity have improvements that ge-
MUS has still to conceive. For In
stance, the engine must have especial
ly constructed journals, on which pro-
vision is made to aviod heating Mr.
Dosser proposes that they shall be
heavier and provided with automatic
oil cups from which is to flow a steady
supply of oil. By system Of pipes
it Is proposed to have these oil cups
constantly replenfshed from the cab
of the engine, an ordinary stop cock
regulating the flow.
Mr.. Dosser is very enthusiastic over
his invention, and believes there is no
doubt of its success If 1T is given a
fail trial. He was asked by the writer:
DO you really believe that your in
yention Is practical, and do you not
realize that railroad men will say it IS
chimerical? Do you believe that what
you propose can be carried out and
developed into facts?''
Why" said Mr.. Dosser, II don't see
any reason why any one should doubt
the practicability OF my invention
There's nothing impossible about it at
all. All great improvements were
