To England in two DAYS.

EAST electric ships crossing the
ocean at more than a mile minute.
will go from New York to Liverpool
in two days" writes John Elfreth
Watkins, Jr., of "What May Happen
in the Next Hundred Years." in the
Decem Der Ladies' Home Journal.
''The bodies of these ships will be
built above the waves. They will be
supported upon runners, somewhat
like those of the sleigh. These run
ners will be very buoyant. Upon their
under sides will be apertures expell-
ing jets of air. In this way film OF
air will be kept between them and
the waters surface. This film, to-
gether with the small surface of the
runners, will reduce friction against
the waves to the smallest possible de-
gree. Propellers turned by electric
ity will screw themselves through both
the water beneath and the air above.
Ships with cabins artifically cooled
will be entirely fire-proof. In storm
they will dive below the water and
there await fair weather"

The Irl R. Hicks 1901 Almanac

Whatever may be said Of the scien-
tific causes upon which the Rev. lrl
r Hicks bases his yearly forecasts of
storm and weather, it is remarkable
fact that specific warnings Of every
great storm, food, cold wave and
drouth, have been plainly printed in
his now famous Almanac for many
years. The latest startling proof OF
this fact was the destruction Of Gal
weston, Texas, on the very day named
by Prof Hicks in his 1900 Almanac,
as one of disaster by storm along the
gulf coasts. The 1901 Almanac, by
far the finest, most complete and
beautiful yet published, is now ready
This remarkable book of near two
hundred pages, splendidly illustrated
with charts and half-tone engravings,
goes as a premium to every subscriber
who pays one dollar year for Prof.

Streets of the City.

The names of the streets of the
city of River Falls are printed on the
plat of the city but very few people
know the designation without re.
ferring to the map. Sometimes 1T is
convenient TO know the name of a
street as a matter Of reference.
Looking at the original plat the in
ference is that the town, ike Topsy,
"just grew" instead of being made.
NORTH AND SOUTH STREETS.
Main or First street attempted tC
follow the line of the river, which
does not follow longitudinal lines,
but is about 10 degrees out of whack
AS the town grew" additional
streets were laid out parallel to First
or Main street which east of the river
are mum bered in order to and includ.
ing 9th street.
On the west side of the river the
streets run at right angles to the
meridian line and are named as fol.
lows, commencing at the river; River
St, CLARK. Lewis, Fremont next east
Of the school house). Pearl next west
OF the school house,, Falls, Spring and
Grove.
EAST AND WEST STREETS.
There is but one east and west street
in the first ward, Union street; the
county-line road is called Division
street: then come six streets in order
named from trees: Cedar, Pine, Ma
pie, Elm, Walnut, Locust. These
extend through the city, on both sides
OF the river. Next south Of Locust
street (the street running by the
JOURNAL Office is Spring street
which runs straight east and west:
and next Cascade Avenues the next
Vine street. South of the South
Fork bridge are several short streets
running east and west; California,
Church. Broadway. aud CHARLOTTE,
and one running parallel with Main,
called State street
