The telephones which were recently nut into the motor cars of Minnesota line for communication with the main office are said to be giving such good services that similar equipments have been ordered for other lines. In case of accident when cars are out in the country it is important that the motor- man should be able to communicate quickly with the home office, For that purpose each car is supplied with tel ephone, placed in the front vestibule. The instruments are so adjusted on springs that the jolting of the car does not impair their efficiency. The motor man can plug" in his telephone at the feeder poles, which are quarter of mile apart, and in case of the disabling or the showing in of a train the off, cials in the main office can at once be advised and relief can be dispatch ed Fire departments are now being supplied with portable telephones. to be used in connection with the fire alarm boxes.

the unstinted praise of all who heard
him. He recited wholly from memory.
He is easy and graceful in his gestures,

close in the footsteps of such men as
Henry Irving and Richard Mansfield.
Another recital will be given on the
