JURY HARD TO GET
In The Newt Matthews Case, and
There Seems To Be An Increasing
objection To The Death Penalty.

1t was necessary to examine one
hundred and six men yesterday before
. jury could be secured in the Newt:
Matthew's case. A good number OF
them disqualified because of the Tact
that they aid not believe in the penalty
of death being Inflicted as a pun1sn-
ment for crime. A sttll larger number
were excused on the ground that they
had heard the facts in the case and had
already formed an opinion.
Late in the afternoon jury wac

COMBINED WINDOW GUARD AND FLY SCREEN.
the guard is likewise lowered, as the
dotted lines of our engraving show.
When the guard is in its uppermoSt
position, the lower bar completely fills
the slot, so as to prevent the accumu-
lation of dust.
Most window guards are defective, in
SO far as no means are provided for re-
moving the guard in case of fire. The
objection has been very simply over
come in the device under consideration.
The lazy tongs are pivoted to one side
bar of their frame and are adapted to
be secured to the other side bar by
means of a hook and keeper. BY re-
leasing the hook the lazy tongs can be
folded together so as to leave an un-
Obstructed passage. The construction,
therefore, does not interfere with the
closing of the shutters.
In connection with the guard n fly
screen is employed, which is attached
to the upper and lower bars Of the lazy
tongS frame. The fly screen is con-
structed so that it can be readily raised
and lowered Independently of the sash
and is provided with a catch engaging
the upper bar of the guard frame, by
means of which catch it is held in
raised position. The fly screen and
guard can be used either separately or
together. The device is also applica-
BILE to the windows of high speed rail-
way trains.

Testing the Color Sense.

An improved lantern has been de-
v1sed for testing the color sense of en-
ployees in the railway or marine serv-
ice who use colored signals by night,
says the Chicago Record. On the front
of the lantern are two movable disks,
the lower having five green and five
red glasses of different shades-one
yellow, one blue and one white glass.
The upper disk has London smoke
glass of three different shades and
some clear openings. By rotating the
disks by hand any Of the colors can be
shown, either alone or in combination
with the smoke glass. Between the
disks is a movable diaphragm which
regulates the size of the colOred area
shown. Inside the lantern are two
pieces Of ground glass, which can be
placed before the light when desired,
giving the effect of fog. There are
two separate burners, so that two col
ors can be shown at the same time in
contrast if necessary. In this way red
and green, two reds or two green's of
different shades, red and white, etc,
can be shown at the same time, or any
color can be shown by itself. Each
glass has an illuminated number or
letter, which can be seen by the
person making the examination, but
which is screened from the person
tested. By this means a record can be
kept of the color shown and a name
given to it. 1t is claimed that this Ian
tern will detect cases of defective color
perception which are not discovered by
the worsted test.

!: TWO IDEAS IN OHl :
KEEPS FLIES OUT AND 4
, BABIES IL. :.


The subject of the illustration pre-
sented herewith is a guard which can
be applied to any vertically sliding
window, which is attached to and
moves with the lower sash and which
Is so constructed that it can be readily
opened whenever it may be desired.
The primary purpose of the guard is
to provide means for preventing chill
dren from falling out of the window,
says The Scientific American.
In the construction of the window
guard lazy tongs are employed, carried
by n frame which is screwed to the
lower sash. The sill of the window is
provided with a slot communicating
with an opening into which the lazy
tongs and their frame can pass when
the window is closed.
1t is evident that when the lower
sash is raised the lazy tongs guard is
likewise raised to cover the open space,
and that, when the sash is lowered,

B. hkDO.'s CIGAR SHAPED TRAIN
An Experiment That promises d
New Record For Speed.

A most interesting and important
railway experiment Is now being con-
Quoted by the Baltimore and ONO
Railroad company with passen niger
train of peculiar construction, des1gn ed
BIZ Frederick U. Adams, formerly OF
Chi Gag o but now Of New YORK. Inc
train, says the New York Tribune, Is
variousIy DESIGNATED as the wind
spIitter,n the .'cIgar-shaped trail,
and OF er terms descriptive OF Its de-
sign. Mr.. Adams Ia at lUss for an ap-
propriate name and describes his In
venti on as q railway train calculated to
offer the least possible resistance to
the atmosphere. He has constructed
train with the idea of treating the air
rs If it were fluid with the same quail
tiles of pressure and resistance as
water, and argues that If high speeds
are to be obtained with economy, as
much attention should be paid to the
lines of passenger coaches as TO those
Of steamship or yacht.
Under the Adams plan OF construct
ion there is q continuity OF lines from
the engine cab to the scar car. AL
possible distractions are avoided. The
spaoes between the cars are closed with
flexible connections, which while per
uniting the f1exure of the train on cur
yes and roegh tracks. yet present no
opening for the air. All air for ventt-
lstion is admitted from the front cad
of the tender, below the smoke from
the locomotive and above the dust
from the trucks. It passes through
ducts along the car roofs and Is d1str1-
buted in the train. escaping through
registers in the floor. An ordinary To-
comotive is used.
Six old passenger cars have been
remode led on these plans and q series
of ests Is now being made. 1t Is
hoped that q means will be found to
secure higher speed with economy and
to provide some means of ventilation
other than that Of open car windows.
The field is new one, and Important
results are expected. The tests thus
far show a decided economy In power
and an increased speed, ranging from
seven to twelve miles an hour. Mr..
Adams is confident that careful study
of the construction and of the air cur
rents will lead to far better results.
With light engines the six cars have
been hauled at exceedingly high
speeds. The best runs thus far have
been eighteen miles in sixteen minu-
tes. ten miles in eight minutes,
miles in three minutes and eighteen
seconds. and two miles in seventy-one
seconds. Railway officials are intent
ly watching these tests. Prominent
New York and Baltimore capitalists
are interested in Mr.. Adams inven-
tions and his train will have q thor
ough trial on various roads in the
summer.
