LONGEST RUN WITHOUT A STOP
The Cornwall Express Travels 1914 niIss With

The longest regular daily run made with

world has Just been placed on the schedule
of the Great Western railway Of England.
It is made between Paddington station.
in London, and Exeter. distance OF 1874
miles. in three hours and thirty-six min,
utes, by what Is known as the Cornwall
express. 1t Is remarkable not so much
owing to the time. as for the fact that tnot
a stop is made from one end of the run to
the other. There have been longer runs
made without a stop, but they have been
made by special and not regular trains The
average speed attained by the Cornwall
express when making this run is 5l7 miles
an hour, although. owing to peculiar
construction of the road at Bristol, lis
miles from London, the train is obliged to
slow down to speed of ten miles an hour
The express train Is composed OF six
long coaches a tender and an engine. An
American would call it vestibule train.
but the English prefer to call the cars
"bogie clerestoried corridor coaches" bo-
gle being a term applied to the trucks.

During the run 1t is necessary to take
water for the engine twice. This, however.
does not necessitate any stop. as it is
taken up from trench beside the track
as the train speeds along at nearly mile a
minute.
The engine which draws this essentially

by comparison be termed the small wheels

trailers, are four feet six inches in dame
ter.
Each day the run Is made, the train
leaving Paddington station at 1925 o'clock
in the morning. and it never fails to roll
into st. David's station in Exeter exactly
on time. The time allowed by the schedule
for this run makes no allowance for delays
of any kind. Even the time lost in going
over the loop around Bristol and the me-
cessity of slowing down when going
through Bath is not allowed for.-New

The magnetic Sousa has undertaken
project in his life. 1t is his tenth semi
annual and third transcontinental SER
les of concerts, as the director Of his own
superb organization. 1t embraces ter
ritory of over 21,0O0 miles, includes the
playing of 2S0 concerts, the visiting Of
1875 cities and towns. Its extent Is
bounded by the two great oceans the
renee. Apart from its musical signifi-
canoe, and the fact that it demonstrates
beyond question what has so often been
denied by unsuccessful aspirants for
the universal favor of music lovers
that a great organization of the finest
instrumentalists can travel with profit
and success, over the entire territory
of the United States-it is also a grand
proof of the possibilities of travel in
America and the superiority of their
railroad systems.
One cannot think talk or speak Of
Sousa without admiration. He has
brought his famous men to standard
that is perfection itself. Undoubtedly
the first requisites in successful leader
are executive ability and ripe musi-
cianship. These Mr.. Sousa admittedly
possesses. But in addition to these, he
is endowed with that rare natural ease
and grace which makes an awkward
movement almost an impossibilty. OF
the prominent leaders now before the
American public, Sousa is the most
strikingly endowed by nature with that
poetry of motion that constitutes an ir-
Tesistibie magnet to the eye.

A Tall Signal Service

A new signal system, which would serve
to notify the business houses when the
mails are late. is being considered by the
postoffice department. The need of such
a system was apparent yesterday at the
postoff1ce, where inquiries were made
through the telephone al all hours if the
mails were late, why they were late, when
they We're expected, ETC., which shows also
that there is a great deal of anxiety among
the business men about their letters. The
idea is to have flags flying from the flag
poles on the postoffice. The scheme is
not developed. but 1t is recommended that
a square red flag be adopted to mean the
mail from New York and the SOUTH and if
it appears alone on the flag pole that
means that the mail from that direction is
one hour late. An obong flag above the
square red one will convey the informs alton
that the mail is more than an hour late
and the color of that flag will show how
many hours the mail is late. In the same
manner blue flag may tell that the west
ern mail Is overdue, and a white one that
that from the north and the east has not
arrived on the schedule time and will be
late in delivery. 1t is claimed that, if all
the business houses were furnished with
an explanation Of the flags. and the people
understood the signals, it would result in
a great convenience and prevent the loss
of time and interruption in business
