BIG Rush Yet to Come.

newton Hibbs has returned from
Spokane where since the first of the
month ne has been acting as immigration
agent for the Lewiston comm rcial club.
He resigned his position to accept the
agency of a Thunder Mountain townsite
company and will leave for that mining
center sometime next week. Mr.. Hibbs
states that the traffic blockade on the great
overland routes has stopped the rush of
homeseekers but that when the roads are
again opened the greater rush will begin
and that April will probably be the best
month. The Lewiston valley and Clear
water country is Handicapped. being the
'artherest removed from the land boom
ers who work the overland trains. The
Immigration agent for this section should
be fully supplied with specific informa-
tion about farm and timber lands. There
is great demand for lands and the op-
portunities in the Lewiston country are
being overlooked because they are not
properly exploited.

". B. HEPBURN AN INVENTOR
Has Invented an Anti. Telescopins Pivotal Pilot
for Locomotives.

has lnVsntso IN Anss' seSsSCOpmS F,VQsau PiI0t
for Locomotives.
1t is not generally known that Judge
W. B. Hepburn is an inventor as we'll as
an attorney, but such is the fact. He has
lust received notice of the issuance to
him of patent for an anti.telescopinp
pivotal pilot for locomotives. The pilot
is hung IN front of the engine in such a
manner that it can be swung one way or
the other by the engineer. II is beveled
in sucn a manner that the impact of COL
lding engines will be glancing rather
than direct, the engines being thro wn to
one side instead of crashing together and
thus causing the teles coping of the cars
behind. Judge Hepburn has an applica-
ton pending for patent for a similar
device for the rear Of trains.
In the application for patent for the
pilot, the device is thus described BY the
inventor:
1.-THE invention has for its object to
provide means for reducing or avoiding
the dangers of life ana limb by railway
travel, and resulting in the 'telescopinY'
of trains by reason Of head end or rear
end collisions. In some terrible railway
accidents which have occurred in The
past, locomotive engines have been
known to rise up and practically leap
over onto the tops of passenger cars,
crushing them down and by the contin-
ued running of the engines, grinding
up the cars and passengers.
1.-The dangers of railway travel are less
ened, in accordance with my present in
vention, by providing each of the loco
motive engines with strongly.built,
pointed and pivotly mounted or swinging
pilot, having bevelled vertical faces. said
pilot being normally held with its point
central to the railway or in the line of
the longitudinal center of the locomotive.
by any suitable devices and means. un.
der the control Of the engineer being pro-
vided whereby the pilot can, in the event
of an impending collision, be swung aside
in either direction, so that, in striking a
colliding object, whether such object be
an approaching locomotive or the rear
car of train ahead, one or the other.
or both of the colliding objects will |
be derailed or forced aside In such |
manner that telescoping will be avoided. |
BY employing pivoted, beve lled.faced |
plot under the control of the engineer
SO that it may be swung aside in either
the engineer may select the
side to which his locomotive and train
will be thrown. in the event of collision.
which may often be advantageous. For
co operation with my pivoted ant-tele
scoping locomotive pilots, the trains will
be preferably provided with pointed rear
end guards having vertical beveled faces,
such rear.end guards being preferably of
strong steel construction and formed as
rigid parts of the cars carrying them so
hat in case of collision, the tendency to
lerailment and side shunting, through
he action of the bevelled- faced pilot, will
be augmented"
Then follows detailed description in
which reference is made to each part as
shown by the accompanying drawing

Does the schoolboy of today know any,
thing Of Longfellow. Holmes, Whittier,
James Russell Lowell and Fitz- Greene Hal
leck, whose poems his father or even his
elder brother can still recite? He is such a
superior young person that We hesitate to
question him as to what he really knows
and what he has put behind him as belong
ing to past age. One often wonders
