Dangers in the Third Rail,
(From the Electrical Engineer

tETOll tlle ElSCUrlCtl EuRlu06r.)
Where, as in the majority of roads in
Europe, there are no grade-crossings, and
where in addition the entire track is
fenced Or hedged in so as to shut out all
trespassing of man or beast, an exposed
third rail offers no difficulties; but where
an unprotected track is the rule, as in
America, experience will show that some
methods must be adopted to avoid annoy
ing and possibly serious consequences,
We are led to these reflections by perusa]
of the accounts of the daily and frequent
accidents on the new third rail electric
branch of the New York, New Haven and
Hartford railroad, which have reached us
ever since the opening of the read. Now
it is a carpenter disabled by his hammer
coming in contact with the rail; next the
dropping of a brake bar from freight
Car causes a short circuit which results in
a damaging burn out at the station and
again girl is shocked, horses are dis
abled and dogs killed. Indeed, only last
week one of the members of the American
Society of Mechanical Engineers, who had
been invited on an inspection run over
the new road, saw his steel ,stemmed UNI
brella go up in a binding flash of light.
Luckily no human lives have yet been
lost, but there is no telling when a COM
bination of circumstances may bring
about such result. That such condi-
ton of affairs can continue indefinitely
in a thickly populated district, or wher-
ever animals are apt to stray ON the track,
is hardly probable, and it is greatly to
be hoped that those in authority in the
New Haven road will give this matter
their serious attention, not only for their
own sake, but for the effect which con-
tinuance of those mishaps will have on
the adoption of the third rail by other
roads. The problem of protecting the
third rail from accidental contact is COM
paratively simple, and we could, in fact,
point to more than one method which, it
seems to us, would answer all the require
ments of practice.

Advocates of short skirts say that few
women would have persisted at the burn

that they stumbled on their skirts and

Two suits for breach of promise have
been settled by juries lately in Massa-
chusetts. In one the damages were laid
at 1000, and the award was $500. In
the other suit was brought for $50, 600,
and the jury gave $3.50. The value OF a
damaged heart apparently depends on the
jury.

The great lens of the Yerkes telescope
now in position at the observatory at
Williams Bay, Wis, was in the hands of
French workmen ten years. Only one
plant in the world can produce large disks

Paris. The rough block of glass weigh
ing 600 pounds was gradually reduced to
225 pounds. The complete lens is inches
thick at the center, tapering to ga of an
inch at the edges.
In a recent interview Prince Bismarck
laughed about the sentimental reports of
his loss of interest in life. "My depres-
sion,' he said, is solely my great age.
Wait till you are SO and see how you feel,
especially if you have spent nearly half a
century in struggles and anxiety. My
whole life has been spent in playing high
with other peoples money. l could sail
my ship on the stream of events, but
not steer it" Nevertheless, the Prince
reached his port as often as any pilot of
his time His health is good, and his
physicians say he may live to a very great
age.
The young Khedive is described in a
letter from Cairo as not in the least dis

hanging cheeks and the plumpness of his
soft, white hands remind one of Dickens
fat boy" The Khedive's only legal wife
is a former slave girl of his mother, whose
business was to stand at the door and re-
move the wraps of ladies on reception
days.

That the milk producers who supply
the city with milk will eventually gen.
rally comply with the order of the Port
land Board of Health, even if no effort
should be made by the Board to enforce
it by means of prosecutions, is, we be-
lieve, practically certain, simply for the
reason that they will find it for their
pecuniary advantage to do SO. There
will certainly be milk producers who will
be shrewd enough to see that certificate
from the Board saying that their
COWS have been tested and pronounced
free from all faint of tuberculosis
will be worth good deal, mas
much as it will give their milk pref
erence in the market, and they will vol
UNFAIRLY and promptly comply with the
Boards order. The milk producers who
hold out and undertake to sell their pro-
duct in competition with that which has
received the endorsement of the Board of
Health will soon discover that they are
at great disadvantage, and will hasten
to place themselves on an equal footing
with their competitors by conforming to
the requirement of the health board.
Public discrimination against those who
undertake to defy the Board of Health s
order will soon compel them to change
their tactics, even if no attempt be
made to enforce the Board S order by due
process Of law.

The agitation against the department
store which ragged SO furiously in Chicago
last winter and which secured some dras-
tic legislation from the Senate against
that kind of establishment, has so far de-
clined that the House thinks it safe to
defy it, and so it has refused to pass the
Senate bill. Doubtless the monopolizing
of business opportunities by these great
stores is an evil, but it is one that cannot
be cured by legislation
