While on steam roads the tracks are
not injured by locomotives running at
high speeds. street railway men COM
plain that their tracks are torn to
pieces by the electric cars. The rea-
son for this Is that the plunging and
rearing of cars mounted on four wheel
ed trucks pound the track and loosen
the joints. Cars on short-base single
tracks often plunge sufficiently to
throw practically all the weight on to
;he front and rear wheels alternately.
and the damaging effect of this can
easily be realized.

The Ynleon River.


"The River Trip to the Klondike"
is the title of an article in The Cen
fury by John Sidney Webb. Mr..
Webb says:
The mouth of the Yukon is about
100 miles broad. that is, from one
side to the other side-but there is
nothing to suggest river about
it = nothing but small streams,
sloughs, islands innumerable and
disconcerting. II is like being
brought face to face with hundred
gates, only one of which opens the
way which you are seeking, while
the others lead to destruction. This
is the difficulty in navigation at the
starting point and the sort of thing
encountered all the way to Circle
City. 1t is touch and go, or touch
and not go, and you may get through
or may stick on bar and not bulge
an inch for many weary days or
weeks. Eighteen hundred and fifty
miles of river are before you on
your way up to Dawson, and it
takes about Is days if you meet with
no accidents-days of vast, wonder
full and ever changing scenery,
nights of silent grandeur, when you
seem to be all alone, surrounded by
an untrodden wilderness, silent,
awesome, mysterious. -

The TrapdOOr Spider.

One of the most singular speci-
mems OF insect life is the trapdoor
spider of Jamaica. His burrow is
lined with silk and closed by a trap.
door with hinge. The door exact
~ fits the entrance to the burrow
and when closed so precisely CORE
spends with the surrounding earth
that 1t can hardly be distinguished
even when its position is known. It
is strange sight to see the earth
open, little lid raised, some hairy
legs protrude and gradually the
whole form of the spider show it.
self. These spiders generally hunt
for food by night, and in the day
time they are very ohary of opening
the door of their domicile, and il
the trap be raised from the outside
they run to the spot, hitch the claws
of their forefeet in the lining of the
burrow and so resist with all their
might. The strength of the spider
is wonderfully great in proportion
to its size.
