TO AVERT WRECKS.
New Device is Given a Successful
Test on Milwaukee Road.
DEVICE ELIMINATES TRACK.

A practical demonstration of the util-
ity of a new departure, which, it is
claimed by railway officials. will effec-
lively prove the solution in a large
degree OF the railway collision prob
lem. was made the other night on the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul road
near Chicago.
h device consists of an exceed
ingly powerful headlight, which not
only perfectly Eliminates the track
with an intensely brilliant shaft of
light for a distance of a mile, but also
embraces the striking and novel feat
ure of a Beam of light of almost equal
brilliancy penetrating over 700 feet
above. which can be clearly seen ten
miles distant. 1t is thereby possible
for approaching trains to absolutely
locate each other by this vertical shaft
of light. though miles apart, and 1t is
this feature which railroad officials
claim will eliminate the possibility of
collision. This vertical beam will, in
billy country especially, where curves
in the track are numerous. so positive
ly fix the location of trains that moth
ing but carelessness on the part of
the enginemen will permit a collision.
The apparatus consists of a powerful
electric arc headlight. a dynamo and
steam motor, all of which occupy the
space on the locomotive usually de-
voted to the headlight. The dynamo
which generates the current for this
veritable searchlight occupies a space
of less thar fifteen inches wide direct.
ly behind the headlight, and is operat.
ed by a motor driven by steam impact
on a turbine wheel. The current is
G,000 candle power, which can he re
duced to any degree of brilliancy al
the will of the engineer.
PRACTICAL DEMONSTRATION.
One of the heaviest passenger en-
gines on the Chicago, Milwaukee & st
Paul, experimentally equipped witt
this headlight. drew a special traiI
a number OF miles out of Chicago, ant
a practical demonstration of the work
ing of the apparatus was given under
the supervision of Charles w. Adams
At a distance of half a mile the tele
graph poles and framework of soma
phores were clearly defined, while the
tracked itself was distinctly visible
for one mile. Straight above the loco
motive a shaft OF light as thick as
mans body penetrated the darkness
and persons posted ten miles away re
ported hat it was clearly distinguish
able. This is an entirely new depart
ure in headlight illumination n rail
way signals. 1t is further proposed tt
convey signals of distress or othe
communication when trouble occur
between telegraph points, by the us
of colored glass to color the vertica
ray of light.
Among those aboard the specia
train were II. r. Williams, genera
manager of the Chicago, Milwaukee
st. Paul; w. ]. Underwood. assistan
general manager; G. A. WOODWARD
general superintendent; F. A. Miller
general passenger agent, and j. F. Gil
son, division superintendent, and !
was their unanimous opinion that tn
headlight was thoroughly practical an
would become one of the future requi'
ties in railroading.

Do Not Be Afraid

to look the facts squarely in the face.
That cough, racking and persistent, ac-
companied by tightness in chest and
splitting of sticky mucus, is a sign of
consumption. Common sense dictates
the use of Aliens Lung Balsam, an
honest remedy, since it contains no
opium; an efficient remedy, since it
heals the irritated, inflamed throat and
lungs, and so prevents a deep seated
cold from running into incurable forms
of cOnsumptiOn.

Every mother possesses information of vital value to her young

sihon to sleep pains in tie back and lower limbs, eyes dim, desire for
solitude, and o dislike for the society of other girls, when she is a

After Christmas comes the bargain

NAV destroy the argument that the
Nicaragua route is the chaper. This
route has also had other advantages

The Good Work in Porto Rico.

Not. a little reproach has fallen upon
accoun: of their recent decision that it
is illegal for the workmen of the island
to organize. Governor Hunt loses no
time in removing this reproach and
thus depriving the ''antis" of ammu-
milton they hoped to use against the
administration. He explains that the
decision was necessary under the old
Spanish law which still prevails in
such matters. and adds that this law
will promptly be repealed and in COM
mon with other antiquated and appres-
sive Spanish legislation will be sup
planted by enactments in keeping with
the modern American spirit. The
working classes of Porto Rico will be
given every right and privilege which
the workingmen of the United States
enjoy.
This little incident calls renewed at
tention TO the Americanization of
Porto Rico which has been going on
at a rate no less gratifying than it is
astonishing. 1t is not likely that there
was ever case in history where a ter
rtory within so short time after its
transfer from one rule to another so
totally different, has made such a
rapid advance. The excellent showing
may well be source of pride to both
the United States and to the island
itself. Governor Hunt reports tran
quilhty and contentment. good schools
established. railroads built. commerce
excellent, exports increased. agriculture
made more profitable, roads being
built, debts paid, surplus in the
treasury, and gratifying growth of
federation of opinion succeeding caste
and prejudice. If the present rate of
progress is maintained, Porto Rico,
according to all accounts, will soon be
the model government of the world

Rudyard Kipling's latest poem, The,
Islanders" has made no end of sem
sation in England and British wrath is
high against the poet for his bitter
criticism of the spirit of the past which
has gotten the country into its present

fools at the wickets and the muddled
OATS at the goals who comprise Eng
lands nobility and who idly and COM
placently stay at home while the brave
colonial troops and the scum OF Lon
