LIFE SAVING DEVICE.

Contrivance to Prevent Railroad Acct
dent.
a very ingenious and valuable cCn-
triyance for the saving of life by pre-
venting railroad accidents through for
getfulness of trainmen has been invent
ed. The machine has Just stood a very
severe test on the Great Northern rail
road, after having been previously
operated successfully on the St. Paul
~ Duluth road. Practical railroad men
in this section have given strong in
dorsements to the device after seeing its
work. The object of the device is to
hinder signal and distance Indicator
for locomotives, by of which en-
gjneers are prevented from forgetting
their train orders as to stopping or
meeting points. The mechanism is
simply but positively connected with
the forward trucks of the engine, there
by accurately measuring the distance
travelled, the dlal-placed in front of
the engine, showing correctly the dis
lance travelled. Above the dial are
placed fifteen triggers or dogs, pivoted
at equal distances around the center.
When the engineer receives his orders,
he sets one or mOr of these triggers to
TO IA point one mile short of the distance
to be travelled before reaching the stop
ping place. The mileage indicator, on
reaching such a point, releases the trig-
ger, which starts IA signal whistle blow
ing. This continue TO blow for one
quarter of a mile, promptly warning
the engineer Of the near approach to
stopping place. If the engineer is in
attentive and fails to stop when this
last mile has been run over, the ma
chine sets the air brake and stops the
tram for him. \ train similarly
equipped. coming in the opposite di-
rection, would be stopped in the same
m|anncrand a collision prevented. The
device can be made to run forward on
backward. For foggy or stormy wealth
er, or for dark nights. the device is con-
sldcrcd especially valuable FOR ordinary
use, although its life-saymg feature wa,
the point at first sought for.

Washington, October THE off
cial advices received at the Guatema-
Ian legation here do not bear out some
of the reports coming from San Fran
cisco published today. According to
the official dispatches the revolution
lists are only in possession Of the de-
partment Of Quczelltangs and "A part
of San Marcos, while the government
controls the other twenty departments
OF the country.
The legation is not officially in
formed on the killing Of MI. Juan
Aparicio; but two gentlemen Of this
city received yesterday private letters
from Guatemala containing news up
TO September II, and. according to
them, the facts about the killing were
not well known until then, and sew
eral contradictory reports were in
circulation, although the prevalent
opinion vas that President Reina
Barros had lot ordered the killing of
Mr.. ApariciO.

Iuther's Bible

1t has seldom fallen To the lot OK any
man TO bcqucath 10 his country so costly
IA legacy as Luther did in his Bible, and
we can understand even while we lamont,

frustrated the recent attempt Ut a revision

for his text. He docs not scruplc, for in.
