at Santiago, Lieutenant Colonel Har-
ward, notifies the government that oil
necessary medicines and supplies are on
the transports and that such a condition
OF affairs as was revealed on the arrival
of the Seneca and Concho will not occur

incidents, the public may be sure that
every precaution is being taken there

Springfield and the Krag-Jorgensen.
The haste that was necessary in send
ing the army to the front rendered It
impossible to furnish improved arms
and ammunition to the volunteers. The
statement made by Secretary Alser that
many old army officers insisted that the
Springfield rife was the best weapon
will surprise many. in this connection.
Undoubtedly 1t is a good weapon, but
there have been some advances made,
and the experience of this war has
proven It, as well as 1t has proven the
superiority of smokeIess powder.

LoNDoN's UNDERGROUND RAILWAY.
How the Rondbed is Used to Start
and Stop Trains,

In designing the new London under
ground railroad the engineers have hit
upon new scheme which may he adopted
hereafter on surface roads. There are no
grades in the tunnel, but at various points
the roadbed itself has been inclined SO
that it can be used as a brake or as a
speed accelerator for trains On each side
of each station is a 3 per cent gradient,
rising on the approaching side and fall
ing again to the level of the road on the
departing side. This unique method gives
a retarding effect TO all trains approach
ing the stations equivalent to the applica-
ton of considerable additional brake pow-
er. while materially aiding in the acceler-
alton of all trains as they leave the plat
forms. Furthermore, the saving I'm power
necessary to secure the requisite rapid ac-
celebration is by the adoption of this plan
calculated to amount to about 33 per cent.
This is point In modern railway practice
which might well be adopted by surface
roads. The new London underground fol-
lows the line of greatest traffic i'm the city.
1t runs from Liverpool street due west,
under Holburn, High Holburn, Oxford
street and past Hyde Park as far as Shep-
herds Bush.
The road will receive passengers from
the great underground central depot, now
In course of construction by the Central
London Railway Company, between the
Bank of England and the Royal Exchange
brought in by the main lines of the Lon
don and Northwestern, Midland and Lon
don and Southwestern railroads. 1t is es-
pecially at this point I'm the city that cross
ing streets is a perilous task, and the rail-
road company is now engaged i'm construct
ing series of subways Immediately below
the surface for the convenience OF pedes-
TRANS and as approaches to its own station
below. From this central depot Will radiste
not less than five underground tunnels
some 81 feet below the surface. each feed

trict of the great agglomeration known as

not especially comfortable to sit upon. The
name comes from the fact that the longest
ana most finely combed fleece in England
was once used for its covering. There are
several other terms peculiar to the house
OF lords which are not generally under
stood. For instance. the painted chamner
is not picture gallery. 1t is the room
where the peers and commons are sup
posed to meet when they come togeth er in
conference. AS these conferences have
been dispensed with II is not used for that
row. 1t takes its name from its rich fres-
Goes and paintings. and is called the
painted room in contrast with the chamber
in which the peers transact their regular
business. The latter is known as the "gild-
ed room, on account of its gold decora-
lions. Pitt was accustomed to speak of the
mouse OF lords as the tapestry, referring
TO the many rich tapestries with which the
chambers are hung"
THE house of lords is also the supreme
court of England, is it not?"
The law lords sit as a court of appeal.
This court includes not only the life peers
created from the judicial ranks. but any
OF the members who have held high iu-
dicial position. 1t is presided over by the
lord chancellor and sits as a court four
days in the week when there Is business
for it to consider. The lord chancellor does
not sit on the woolsack on these occasions
except when he delivers judgment, when
he resumes that place"
Talk Like Senator's
DO the peers have any rule for closing
debate, or are they. like our own senators
at Washington, allowed to talk as long as
they please?"
There is nothing to prevent a peer from
talking just as long as he pleases. except
the considerable one of the lack of an
audience, If he makes himself a bore But
the peers usually show clear majority one
way or another on any question that comes
before them. and there is little Involvement
to the members to talk for the mere pur-
pose of obstruct ton"
Then you do not consider the house of
lords an antiquated Institution"
Not at all, unless by antiquated you
mean old in point Of years. The prevail
ing atmosphere of the chamber is one Of
business, and it does the work that comes
TO 1t with reasonable dispatch and, as most
of those acquainted with it will agree
with intelligence. 1t is also erroneous to
suppose that the house of peers is an as
semblage of old men. 1t Is being constants
ly recruited by young men, and majority
OF Its members are still in their prime"

ART AND ARTISTS

There are only two works in sculpture
that are yet to arrive at the Congressional
Library, the group of figures for the clock
in the reading room and the statue of
Michael Angelo. The latter has been
| n odeled by Paul w. Bartlett, whose strik-
ing figure of Columbus was placed not
long ago on the railing of the rotunda bal
cory. The nymph mounted upon a sea
horse, which completes the fountain group
by Roland Hinton Perry, has just been
placed in position. and the group may now
be seen in it's entirely. The nymph is quite
sim liar to the one which was placed in
front of the right-hand niche some time
ago, and both nereid and sea horse are
splendid In action and movement. Prep
arations are being made to put in place the
bronze doors, which arrived recently. They
were modelled by Herbert Adams, the sub
ject being WRITING" one of the three
principal ways in which knowledge has

On Wednesday afternoon an informal re-

the students and Mr.. Page, who was elect

the choice piece, a museum piece, connois-
seurs declare, of a large output of the
ware that was sent to New York by the
Misses Healey of Washington just before
Christmas. 1t was valued then at SIS. Ii
is valued now at 500, though il has been
withdrawn from sale, and is to be mounted
Miss Emily Healey, while working in her
laboratory a few months ago. discovered
the process which gives to ner gold ware
this iridescent effect. Like the process for
the production Of the gold ware this, OF
course, is a secret and doubly valuable as
1t has the distinction. it is claimed, of be-
ing actually something new.
An indisputable proof of its metallic sur
face, as distinguished from the glazed sur
faces of other wares is its opacity. Held
to the light, no ray penetra,es it, whereas
in the glazed wares, the light filters
through at least in spots.
Two hundred cards ara out to artists and
connoisseurs. inviting them, on Monday
and Tuesday afternoons, to a view of a
number of beautiful pieces of the ware
that are now ready for shipment.
