Block Signals Now Used.

After several months of active
work the installation of the new
automatic block signaling system on
the New York division of the
Pennsylvania Railroad was complet-
ed few days ago and the last CON
nectinglink between New Brunswick
and Monmouth Junction was placed
in service Sunday noon. The new
system has been in operation between
Jersey City and Railway for some two
or three years, and also between
Trenton and Philadelphia for some
months.
The newsystemis operated by cleo
tricity, the current being supplied by
means of storage batteries placed at
intervals along the track. The
electric current IS carried by means
of the rails. At intervals of aquarter
OF mile the tracks are spanned by
light open iron-work bridges upon
which the necessary semaphore sig
nails are placed. These consist of two
semaphores, or two arms, which ex-
tend out over the track at right
angles with the upright piece on the
signal pole. The signals are exactly
alike IN shape, but the upper one is
painted red and the lower one green.
When the block which the two sig
mails protest is clear the two arms
dropped. As soon as a train passes
the signal bridgeitcompletes an cleo
trical circuit which operates the
mechanism operating the signals.
The first signal is dropped in the
same manner as soon as the train has
left the block, and when it has leftthe
next succeeding block the green sig
nal is dropped as well. When the
green or lower signal is standing at
right angles it indicates to the
engineer of an approaching train that
the block upon which he is about to
enter is clear, but that there is train
on the block next beyond. Both
signals being dropped indicates that
the track is clear at least two blocks.
Lanterns are used at night.

Weather and Crop Conditions.

During the week ending Monday,
August 28, the temperature and sun
shine have been above the normal,
and the rainfall below, except in a
few scattered dlocalities in the South
ern Section. On the evening of the
2Ist, a most destructive thunder
storm, accompanied by hail and high
wind, passed over the most fertile
portions of Burlington and Cumber-
land counties. In the latter dover
Township buildings were moved
from their foundations, sheds blown
down, and fruit and forest trees torn
up bythe roots. Hundreds of bushels
OF apples were blown from the trees,
many fields of corn cut by the hail,
and some stalks broken off by the
high wind
In the remaining sectionsT the
weather conditions have favored the
growing and maturing crops. Corn
is in most promising condition,
especially the late planted Very
fair yields of a second crop of clover
and timothy and good crop of salt
hay, have been secured.
Apples, the State over, are in
fine condition, and maturing we'll.
The yield will be fairly good in
quantity and quality Pears, all
varieties, have been injuriously affect
ed by the Cooling Moth, during the
month of July Cranberries, in
some bogs in Ocean County, are
badly scalded, so much so that the
yield will be less than one-half of the
average.
In some portions of the Central
Section. blowing and seeding have
been retarded, owing to absence of
rain.

lis Time to Plant Bulbs.

This is the season of the year in which
to set out bulbs. Prepare the ground for
them before they are received by having
it dug up to "a depth of at least foot-a
foot and half is better-and worked over
until it is mellow" writes Eben E. Rex
ford in the September Ladies' Home
Journal. Mix with it liberal quantity
of old. rotten manure from the cowyard,
or, if this is not obtainable, use bonemesl
in the proportions of one pound to a
square yard of soil. If the s)il is natur-
ally heavy, it is well to add considerable
sand to make it lighter and more porous.
Plant the bulbs as soon as possible after
they are received, as they are greatly in
jured by exposure to the air. Set tulips
and hyacinths six inches deep, smaller
bulbs from four to five inches. All bulbs
should be placed five or six inches apart,
and each kind kept by itself.

National Export Exposition.

Philadelphia, the city of straight
streets, straight coats, straight hats
and pretty girls, " will be full of ex-
citement and interest the next two or
three months. Firston the list is the
u. A K. encampment, with 90, 900
veterans of the Civil War to be enter
tanned. Scarcely will the sound of
their bugles have died away, when
the National Export Exposition will
open, and Greater America will show
to. the world what Yankee ingenuity
and industry can accomplish. One
can imagine something of the gran
deur of this scheme, when the cost of
buildings and grounds alone, it is es-
tlmated will be ST 900, 900. That
seems a small sum compared with
what it has cost the nation to expand
IN another direction. When Col.
John Jacob Astor returned from
Europe few weeks ago, says the
Exposition Bulletin. he said, 81 had
lots of people tell me that until we
whipped the Spaniards, their idea of
the United States was that of a
walled-in country, SO to speak, with
no influence abroad, either politi-
cally or industrially." When the
brainy delegates, who are coming
from every cline, see how we live
and what we are doing, there will be
change of opinion in regard to
Uncle Sans country.
The attractions of the Exposition
are to be SO great and varied, one is
at a loss which to select for descrip-
ton. Among the not least inter
esting are our new daughters who
are coming to take peep at us in
their new relation. The Porto Ricans
will dispense hospitality by offering
cup of their delicious coffee free to
visitors. The dark eyed Cuban bellies
will roll cigarettes and hand them
out to the multitude. By special
permission of the Secretary of the
Treasury, $50 natives of the Celes-
tial Empire will come and establish
a village, precisely the same as in
China. To the untraveled visitor
this will be instructive and enter
tanning. Arrangements are in pro-
gress for the exhibition Of a distinc-
tive novelty that will be as big and
startling as the Eifel Tower or the
Ferris Wheel. Among the amuse-
ments will be the London Ghost
Show, where you will be taken close
to the banks of the Styx. The freak
is anxious to come. A man in In
diana has a flying machine, and pro-
poses to carry people from one build
ing to another each morning and af-
ternoon. A Frenchman, writing
from Paris, wants the privilege of
digging a hole in the Exposition
grounds, 5000 feet deep: into which
he would lower people in basket.
The Philadelphia independent
say S: Every one should lend hand
to make the coming Exposition
success. Do not miss this chance
of adding to your stock of knowl-
edge. 1t will furnish you food for
thought all through the dreary win
ter when you are snow-bound and
thereis no mail. In the golden days
of October you can go on your wheel.

Exploring a Strange Land.

John Bell Hatcher, professor of
geology and paleontology, in Prince
ton University, has just returned
from an eight months expedition to
Patagonia, where he has been making
extensive researches in the sciences
of geology and paleontology He
and Mr.. Peterson, his assistant, sailed
for South America on December 5th,
and after arriving there abouta month
afterward, located their headquarters
along the Strait of Magellen, at Sandy
Point. Explorations and investiga-
tions of the interior of Patagonia
were then begun, most of which were
confined between the forty sixth and
fifty second parallels, which section
of country is largely occupied by the
Teehuelchi tribe of Indians
Of the three expeditions made to
Patagonia by Professor Hatcher
within the past four years, this has
doubtless proven to be the most sue
cessful from different points of view.
Many rare specimens of fossil verte-
brates and invertebrates have been
secured, and valuable geological,
chronological and botanical collections
and which will be brought to Prince
ton to be prepared for the Geological
Museum.
What especially characterizes these
collections is not only the extraor-
dinary number of the genera and
species, but even more, the remarka-
bly, perfect preservation of the speci-
mems. In fact, almost every genus
is represented by one or more COM
plete skeletons, and forms hitherto
known only from more or less frag-
mentary parts, may now be studied
and figured as entire organisms.
Another interesting feature of the
expedition, is that a great part of
Patagonia which seems never to have
been explored and which, at least,
has never been mapped, has been
thoroughly investigated by Professor
Hatcher ane Mr. Peterson, and by
the discovery of mountains, lakes,
rivers and glaciers which have never
before been named or recorded on
any map. They have made import
ant contributions to the geography.
A large and important series of
Photographic negatives which depict
the geological and physiological fea
lures of that so little known section
of country have been taken, and
many photographs of the people who
live in the plains and mountains,
showing their condition of life.
Professor Hatcher spoke very
highly of the tribes inhabiting the
plains, He said they consisted al
most entirely of native Indians, lived
in tents and obtained their living by
hunting guanoes, a kind of camel,
oxen, deer, ostriches and other birds.
Their manner of life is considerably
abovethe average uncivilized tribes
and they are naturally hospitable
people. They are extremely fond of
their children, believing that they are
providentially entrusted to their care.
Their morals are good and compare
quite favorably with those of civilized
nations.
After remaining in Princeton a few
months Professor Hatcher anticipates
making another expedition to Pata-
gonia for further research in the work
he has SO we'll begun, and hopes to
make still more startling discoveries
there than he has hitherto.

Major Lee. who has been the personal

up the evidence taken during the inquiry

Of. He showed that every allegation
made by Gen. Miles has been fully sus-

that sort of report is submitted. a wave

country that when compared with that
which followed the white washing of AL.

pie of this country have decided this case

unwise enough to allow his friendship for
Algerism and his dislike for Gen. Miles

to get report contrary to the evidence,
so much the worse for Mr.. Mckinley.
The country has been disposed, through
all the dirty mess, to believe in the per.
sonal integrity of Mr.. Mckinley, and that
he was the victim Of his political obliga-
tons to Alger, but public opinion cannot
be made to stand too great a strain.
The republican managers are trying to
get Mr.. Hobart to announce that, owing
to his health, he will not be candidate
for denomination, but he has 80 far de.
