A NEW storage power company ts In

is asserted that in a. recent test an Or

ty-five miles an hour at the actual cost
for power of 5 cents. A company called

THE designer of the battleship
"Oregon, George w. Dickey, of San
Francisco, predicts that in few years
steel ships 1000 feet long will be built
for the Pacific trade. He says the ad
vance will be gained by gradual in
creases, because it will take time to
calculate the effect of strain on a hull.
A long hull rests variously on q series
of waves and there is also q side roll,
all of which make 1t difficult to secure
the right rightly without practical
experiments. The advantage of long
chips Is the greater carrying capacity
and the fact that the cost of the crew
is no more than on q smaller vessel.
On the Pacific the liners are built
with huge state rooms, freely ven
tilated, as the climate is warmer than
on the Atlantic.

OUTDOOR SPORTS.

1t ia becoming painfully apparent
that all outdoor sports are INDUCED In
with more or less risk to life and limb.
To single out one particular sport,
football, as so many writer's do, and
urge that it is criminally dangerous ia
not fair.
During the short hunting season
Just end I'd seven men were killed in
Wisconsin while in the woods deer
shooting. In Michigan nine were
killed, and in the Adirondack twenty
three hunters lost their lives in as
many days. Two deer hunters we're
killed in Pennsylvania Twenty-Five
moose and deer hunters were killed In
the state of Maine.
Nine baseball players were fatally
hurt on the diamond during the past
season. 1.-THE deaths on the polo field
numbered three, while on the links
two men were killed by being struck
on the head by golf ball. Eight
pugilists were killed in the prize
ring.
Mountain climbing, tobogganing,
ice yachting, skating, fox hunting,
bicycling and other kindred sports
each year add to TIE list of fatalities
that!occur in open-sir sporting amuse-
ments.
Football is rough game and the
meu who play it take mary chances of
injury; but the casualties in other
sports chow that 1t Is no more danger
resulted from injuries received on the
gridiron.
Texas, it should be added, has been
81 ngularly lucky in not having enough
such casualties to make record.

It has been decided by the New
York Board of Trade to enjoin the
Trunk Lime association from putting
into effect the reclsssification iof mer-
chandise by which shipping rates
throughout the country were to have
been raised on many important lines
of merchandise. The new classified
tion is to operate on and after January
1, unless sufficient pressure can be
brought to bear on the Trunk Line as
ISOLATION to cause the abandonment of
the new schedule. Shippers through
out the country are alarmed at the
present prospect. An advance of from
20 to As per cent. in the shipping rates
on sugar, soap and coffee is contem-
plated. The new classification will
affect about 500 items. There is work
for the Ell Paso chamber of commerce
every day in she year along the above
line until Ell Paso has fair freight
rates.

little incredulous about that cents

understand that the proximity of a
cotton mill enhances the value of the
raw material. The cotton mill towns
pay a bigger price for cotton than 9th

cause the demand is for consumption

The opinion was expressed recently
that the Introduction of the lash would
be good thing "a deterrent to foot
pads. John Hayes, the chief of police
of Kansas City, said he believed a Wig
orous flashing would cause them to try
to get out of the range Of cities where
that practice was in vogue. John j.
Donahue, chief of police in Omaha, not
only advocated the whipping post for
footpads, but for other classes of
criminals as we'll. Chief of Police
Quigley, of Indianapolis, said the foot
pad was . murderer at heart, and
therefore should be given unusual
punishment. He would have them
whipped and then sent to the peniten-
tiary, and afterwards whipped again.
Chief of Police Doyle of Minneapolis,
Watts of Boston, and Bull of Buffalo,
however, do not incline to the idea of
the whipping post. Opinion on the
matter is about equally divided.
