KITES AS STORM PROPHETS.

Great Value to MeterOlo-

In his kite-fying experiments the
other day in Bayonne, n. j.. William
A. Eddy hit upon unmistakable signs
of an approaching storm that may be
of vast benefit when his scheme is more
scientifically applied. From CLOUD

his kite had been drawing sparks at
regular intervals, but far apart Fully
an hour before the snowstorm came.
which was shortly after noon. with an
accompanying high wind. the sparks
emitted grew to such frequency they
could not be counted. The observers
were unaware of the cause of all this
until the storm broke suddenly on them
with such fury that the kite was de-
molished and experiments were over
for the day.
Mr. Eddy was aided in his expert.
ments by F. A. A. Talbot, of London,
and it is their opinion, the results were
so conclusive, that the government
should take up the idea and press the
investigation on more scientific
grounds. The kite, Mr.. Eddy saws,
when flown at sea, will be able to fore.
tell sudden squalls where the baron.
eter may take no cognizance Of them.

SAVES GIRL AT SEA.
Presence of Mind and Bravery Dis
played by Bradley Martin, dr.,
on Ocean Liner.

According to the stories of the pas
sengers on the North German Lloyd
liner Kaiserin Maria Theresa, which
arrived at New York the other day,
Bradley Martin, Jr,, was the hero of
the trip. The particular incident to
which he figured occurred on Monday
afternoon. Together with several Of
the more adventurous of the passen-
gers he was on the promenade deck
forward, although terrific seas pre-
vailed at the time. and the weather was
otherwise extremely rough.
On the deck at the same time was

maid of Mrs. Van Rensselaer, Cruger
Suddenly wave swept across the liner
Miss Curtillin was standing near the
rail. and before she could retreat the
wave had boarded the Kaiserin and
struck the young woman. For a mo-
ment ii looked as if she would go over
board.

thrown against the railing with great
force The young man managed to get
firm hold on Miss Curtillin, and as the
wafer receded he lifted her to her feet
and assisted her into the saloon.

a STRANGE MISHAP.
Engineer Caught Under snowdrift
in His Cab.
Train Runs wild and Fireman Has to
Crawl over Express Car to Get
mt Emergency Cord 10
Stop Train.

On the Elmira. Cortland & Northern
railway. which is a branch of the Le-
high Valley, there happened the other
night peculiar accident. The train
runs from Canastota to Elmira, n. Y,
leaving Canastota a six o'clock p. m.
Frequently trains are held up by snow
drifts. but ii is seldom that the pres
ence of snow in the cab of the engine
makes a RUNAWAY" of a locomotive
when the engineer and fireman are
still on board, anxious to control the
machine. That, however, was what
happened to Engineer Reidy's machine.
About a mile from the station at
East Ithaca the train entered a deep
cut Suddenly there was mighty rush
of snow The windows gave way and
the engineer. seated at the throttle
was pushed back from his post before
he could make an effort to stop the
machinery. The engine was running
free from guiding hand through the
drifts, and Reidy could make no warn
ing signal. The fireman tried to enter
the express car, which was next the
tender. but the door was locked. Find
ing no other means of sounding the
alarm or of stopping the train, the fire
man crawled over the top of the eX-
press car while the gale howled about
his ears. When the baggage car was
reached he pulled the emergency cord
and the air brakes stopped the train.
A party of passengers poured from
the cars. They were told that the en-
gineer was buried in a mass of snow
in the cab. and that the train had been
running free. 1t took an hour to re-
move the snow from the cab. Finally
Reidy was freed from the weight of
snow, and the train arrived in Ithaca
two hours late.

TWENTY-sToRY HOTEL.
Project to Erect a Gigantic Building
at New York City on VaIu-
able Site,

The st. Cloud hotel, at the southeast
corner of Broadway and Forty-second
street, New York city, owned by John
Jacob Astor, will in all probability be
replaced soon by 20-story hotel from
plans of Bruce Price. j. T.. Pennock,
of Philadelphia, who was one of the
principals in the projection of the St.
James building, is negotiating for a
long term lease of the Forty-second
street corner, and Mr.. Price has pre-
pared sketches of the building, which
it is proposed to construct there. 1t
is expected that if no unforeseen diff
culties arise the contract for the lease
of the land will be signed. Mr.. Price,
as well as business representatives OF
Mr.. Astor, declined to give any infor-
nation concerning the hotel project.

FAILS AS STEAM-MAKER.

and Engineer Gets Badly
Scared.

That milk is not equal to water as
steam producing agent, says the Chi
cago Chronicle, was demonstrated the
other day on the Erie g. Central New
York railroad by passenger train No. 2.
which left Cincinnatus at 7:3O o'clock
and was due in Cortland an hour and
half later. The train stopped at the
water pump and milk station in Cincin-
natus for a supply OF water Fireman
John Barney, new employe, made a
wrong connection and filled the engine
tank with sour milk The steam
dropped rapidly after the transaction,
because the milk curdled as soon al it
struck the heat, and clogged the pipes,
and such sputtering about the gauge
took place that Engineer Jonas Miller
became frightened, and at Freetown
asked the dispatcher for an extra en-
gine to haul his train to the end of it's
run.

STUDENTS MUST PRAY.
The University OF Chicago Council
Passes "A Law ATecting the
Recreants.

Unclassifed students at the Univer-
sity of Chicago who have been purpose
ly missing the daily prayers at chapel
hours will hereafter be required to at
tend religious services and to comply
with all the requirements which are in
the regulations for regular students.
The university council has passed a
law which revokes all the special priv
ileges of special or unclassified stu
dents.
Chapel prayers, physical culture, de
vision lectures and other minor college
requirements become so irksome to
many students that in order to escape
what they termed useless red tape"
they gradually changed their registra-
tion cards from regular students to
special students. The result was that
the university found itself with sew
era hundred special students and with
only a corporals guard of regulars.
Consequently the university council
took the matter up and passed such
rule that there is now no advantage in
being an uncassifed student. The re-
suit is that the students are now chang
ing back to their regular positions on
the university roster. One discrimina-
tion only has been made against un-
classified students and that is that
such students, members of athletic
teams could never be captains This
rule has almost caused a rupture in
the athletic teams on several occasions
and in order to avert trouble in the
future the council ruled that .eligibil-
ity for membership in any athletic
team or muscial club implies eligibility
to any offce or honor within the gift of
the team or club"

A Tribute to the Dead, Inspiration to the
Living.

The late Mrs. Anna Dare was born.
December, 1910; died, January 10th,
1901. Her life was one peculiarly re-
markable and one long self sacrifice to
humanity In every human being she
saw dignity and worth, and spark of
divinity, capable of infinite develop
ment. The most humble beggar re-
ceived aims and blessing at her door.
She frequented the hedges and the by
ways, realizing that there help was
needed most. Her charity was only
surpassed by her faith and hope in
things unseen. The greater part of her
life was spent at Moore's Junction.
The church and Sunday School at that
place was the object of her charity.
All of her time was devoted to the well
fare of these two places. She was a
most earnest worker there, and when
she moved away from this place a
bright star ceased to shine there, but
the church at her new home gained our
loss. Had Mr.. Goldsmith known her
he would have said: she, too, is like the
mountain by the seashore. -"Around
its breast the rolling clouds are spread.
Eternal sunshine settles on it's head"
The evening following her husbands
funeral when six little girls and one
boy gathered about her knee, she said:
''Then for the first time | realized my
great responsibility. knelt down and
dedicated them to God and jasked Him
to sustain and direct me - For those
who wronged her, her prayer was sin
cere "Father, forgive them" Her
life was beautiful and one long to be
remembered by all who knew her. Her
reward she has received ere this May
we that are left behind profit by the
noble lesson she has taught us. Those
who are acquainted with Longfellow's
beautiful tribute to the Acadians, in
"Evangeline," will associate it with
that of this noble woman, and will
say truly this woman was an Acadian.
Men whose lives glide on like rivers
that water the woodlands, darkened by
shadows of earth, but rejecting an
image of heaven"

Thatched Cottages Disappearing.

Gradually and too surely the old
thatched cottages of England are GO
ing. Where the thatch exists slate is not
substituted for it; it is repaired when
necessary with straw or reeds, more
commonly with the former. But where
a matched cottage tumbles to pieces
or is burnt, the new one that takes
its place is given slate roof, writes
an English correspondent. Large num-
bers of the old cottages, with the wood
en- beams amid their bricks and the
matched roofs, are destroyed by fire.
There is little chance of stopping fire
when it has laid hold of the wood or
