BLOCK SIGNAL SYSTEM.
II Virtually Prevents Railroad Col
lisions and Is Operated by the
Faithful Tower Man.

1t is much safer TO ride on a railway
train now than it used to be. On many
roads lock and block" signals keep a
train from being run into from behind,
| and it is impossible to have a head on
collision, because trains going in the
opposite direction are on another track.
In the old days trains were kept from
colliding by sending kilograms, and
mistakes of telegraph operators often
cost many lives. Nowadays when an
engineer is running his train close to
another on the same track he knows
it by signals placed every little way
along the line, and the telegraph oper.
ator has nothing to do with it.
A road on which these siganls are to
be used is first divided into sections OF
blocks" each about two miles long.
The rails of each block are separated
from the rails of the adjoining blocks
by some substance that win not let
electricity through. In a tower mid
way of the block is an electric indi-
Gator which is attached to both rails
OF the track by two wires. When a train
enters block at one end. the Indicator,
the two wires, the two lines of rails
and the nearest car truck form an cleo
trio circuit along which travels a cur
rent from battery. The indicator
clicks as the current passes through it
and the words Train in Block" appear
in slot in front. The instant that the
train passes out of the block the cur

AGGY WAS AMUSING.
Filipino Monkey, Although Full of
Franks, Was the Pet of an
American Regiment.

When my brother returned from the
Philippine islands not long ago, having
seen service in the island of Negros, he
brought with him pet monkey named
Aguinaldo. In his native land Aggy
~as quite an amusing beast. If the
soldiers happened to be in want of
cocoanuts or mangoes Aggy would will
ingly go up a cocoanut or mango tree
and shake down any quantity of fruit,
when he would come down and look as
if he was highly pleased at what he had
done. Although Aggy was useful at
times, he was very mischievous. For
instance. he would hunt until he found
some of the officers best cigars and
then proceed to chew a small hole out
of the middle of each cigar, making
them so they would not draw well. An
other favorite prank was to throw
razors, toothbrushes and the like out
of the window and then take refuge in
the top of a cocoanut tree, where he
would stay until the razor owners
wrath had somewhat abated.
He relished spiders and moths, and
would frequently burn his feet or
mouth in attempting to catch the
moths who were attracted by the light
of candle. But Aggy did not thrive
In this climate. He was sent to a man
who took care of all kinds of animals.
but in consequence of the voyage over
and the unsuita bleness of this climate
he died about three weeks after arriy- |
ing here.-N, Y. Herald,

THE TATTOOED CRUCIFIX.
How Lieut.. Commander Gilmore Was
Saved from Execution an the
Philippines.

For the first time since we had been
on the march, says Lieutenant Com
mander Gilmore in McClure's. the
Filipino lieutenant separated his camp
from ours. He also doubled his guard,
stationing his soldiers in the rocks
which surrounded us. Thinking all
this somewhat peculiar, I sent one of
the men to ask if he placed the guards
for our protection.
NO" was his laconic answer. Soon
afterward he came himself to our
camp, and through an interpreter
calmly informed me that he had or
ders, presumably from Gen. Tino, to
execute us in the mountains
| have always believed that the lieu
tenants refusal to obey orders and ex-
ecute us was due to the effect pro-
duced in his mind by an incident which
had occurred a night or two earlier.
At one of our stops he had shown me
crucifiX, which he wore hung by a
ribbon around his neck. and said 10
me: THE 'Americanos' are not Chris

that, as he could see, it must always
be with me. There was a marked
'hange ia his manner toward me after
that.

In the way of financial deals the sui

is an amusing story on the point. Some
years ago he sent for a well-known
Jewish banker of STEAMBOAT to hear the
latest gossip of the bourse. While
Abraham was being conducted to the
palace the court messenger begged
him. should the sultan question him
on the matter, to say that consols were
at 80, as his majesty had been so in
formed by his ministers. Unsuspect-
ing Abraham saw no harm in consent
ing TO the request. Sure enough, dur
ing the audience. the sultan inquired
as to the state of the funds. and the
banker made the promised reply. Alb
dul expressed himself delighted. and.

a large bundle of bonds and instruct
ed him to sell at 80. They were only
