A further supply of Haifkins pro-
phylactic having arrived, the Health
Department is making arrangements to
commence incubation at as early date
as possible. 1t will be remembered that
on the occasion Of the last public in
oculation the arrangements were such
that the department was unable to con-
troll the number of people applying
either as regards the neighborhood
from which they came or as regards
the numbers applying on any one day.
The consequence was hopeless con-
fusion, which not only seriously dis
turbed the ordinary business of the de-
partment, but on one occasion at least
gave rise to situation which might
have resulted in grave personal injury
to some of the panic stricken crowd.
To guard against REPETITION of that
experience the president Of the Board
of Health has drawn up special set of
regulations, and these have been ap-
proved by the Premier.
The work Of tearing down infected
houses and wharves Is going on expe-

Big Contract for an American Company.
 After being carefully guarded for over two months it has leaked out that the tramway committee of the GIas= gow (5eotIand} corporation has award ed the contract for the supply and lay ing of the conduit for conveying the cable for Glasgow municipal tramWays to the National Conduit and Cable company of America. The work of laying the pipe under American super vision has already begun, and some 500 navies are being employed. This con dait contract is reported to be by far the most important one ever placed outside of England. Already 1000, ,000 feet of piping have been ordered and it is said that the chances are that the entire requirements in this line will be filled by the Americans, and that the cable-on the superior manufacture of which English manufacturers have long prided themselyes-wiIl also be ordered from the United States The curious part of the conduit contract is that lump sum has been agreed upon with the National company that will include the supply of pipes, the ex- cavation of the earth as well as the laying of the pipe.

 Frequent mention is made in the dis patches of war correspondents of eshell-dodglng," and the average read CT is at first at loss to understand the precise meaning of the words, un- til their constant repetition leads one to believe that probably it is possible to SCI. shells in their aerial flight, and consequently the soldiers are able to dodge them. A sergeant major of ar tillery who has seen some active serY- ice all over the world. gives us some information about the true art. h all his long experience he said he had only seen three or four shells actually in the air. and they came from the gun he himself fired He explained that there are few guns with a somewhat slow muzzle velocity, and the men fir ing these can sometimes catch glimpse of the shells in their flight; but 1t would be impossible for any man to see a shot coming toward himself Bodging shells is done by getting un- der cover immediately before gun is actually fired. For instance . said the sergeant major, if I were climbing 2 hi1l, at the top of=Whieh q gun was di= reeted against me, could tell exactly when q shell was likely to come bound ing along.

But seei Suddenly snow white serpent shoots up in the air. It comes nearer and nearer; the anxious ly strained eyes can now see the line which travels with it. 1t has reached the wreck and has been seized by eager hands. Quickly it is pulled through a tafl-block. and, as they haul on, stout rope soon follows in it's wake. Next comes a hawser, by means of which food and restoratives can be passed to the sufferers. Lastly comes the life buoy, and one by one the crew is safe ly landed Sometimes a kind of car is sent, in which several people can be rescued at the same time.
