the installation Of rapid transit facili-
ties between small towns or in the
country is the great cost Of the power
house to generate and distribute the
electricity, the laying of a double track
and the cost of maintenance. Mr..
Tunis declares that by his system he
can lay two tracks-sO that II one be-
comes INSTRUCTED the car can be
switched over to the other-and the
trusses or bents which guide his car
for Just one half of the cost Of a trolley
line.
AS each car is propelled with its own
motor power the great expense of a
power house is not only eliminated, but
the system is not in danger or being
paralyzed by a breakdown In the CEN
trail station. Each car with Its trailer
is absolutely independent OF every
thing save itself.
The single rail is laid just like the
tracks of the ordinary steam rail. Over
it, at fixed distances are bents or truss
es supporting the guides which keep
the car always in an upright position.
The car can be built of any length re-
quired. In the forward end is the en-
CINE. supplied by gasoline oil or steam
power.
Tunis has built and over which he is
now sending q rudely constructed car
at frequent intervals Is two thousand
feet long. Here the trusses are of
timber but steel or iron will be used
in actual equipment. The car is nice
ly balanced on the single rail, the
wheels being of the grooved pattern.
The centrifugal motion of the car on
curves is provided for in the slant of
the trusses.
A compact four-horse power engine
in the car,rWith coal oil fuel that costs
ten cents an hour, is sufficient to drive
the big car at a fifteen mile per hour
rate. A sixteen horsepower engine
will give, Mr.. Tunis declares, a speed
of sixty miles an hour on a forty-foot
car and trailer filed with people, and
at cost of forty cents per hour.

after a series of careful expert
ments, the problem was solved. When

and all was over. When cold. the cru.
chile was broken open. At the bottom
was found metallic chromium at least
80 per cent pure. Above it and easily
separated was a Stag of aluminium ok
ide, or artificial corundum. Herr
krupp could have his precious metal
at reasonable cost for hardening steel
for guns and armor plates.
This was the open door to one of
the greatest inventions of the age DR..
Goldschmidt resolved to experiment
further. He soon discovered that very
pure manganese, also a valuable but
almost unknown product in CONNER
cial quantities, could be equally well
obtained in this way-merely substi-
tutlng oxide OF manganese for oxide of
chromium"
Next came experiments with oxide
of iron and then the discovery of Their
mite. DR.. Goldschmidt found that if
oxide of iron Ca pure haematite ore,
such as is mined in Northern Michi-
GAM were substituted for oxide of
chromium and touched off by the flash
light primer, it's action would be far
more violent, though it could still be
controlled.

According to high authority it is
the most startling discovery in chem
istry. Thernite is it's name. Dis
tinguished chemists say that 1T needs
only the touch of a match to this new
compound to produce a temperature
of 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
1.-THE human mind,'' says New York
scientist, "can form no appreciative
conception of what such a tempera-
ture means. 1t would melt the most
refractory rocks and cause them to
flow like water"
The interior of Mont Pelee, whose
fiery blast destroyed st. Pierre in a
moment and crumbled it's buildings
into dust, would be cool compared with
this temperature of 5,40O degrees. 1t
would melt the White Mountains into
rivers of liquid fire. Nothing could
Withstand its consuming power.
Can Be Controlled and Regulated.
"Yet this heat can not only be pro-
duced at a few moments notice." said
the scientist yesterday, "but it can be
controlled regulated for use in COM
mercial work, in factories, foundrieg
and machine shops, for melting, shap
ing and Welding masses of iron and
steel. 1t is equally valuable for pro-
ducing hitherto rare and costly metals
in a state of almost absolute purity"
And what makes this stupendous
force? The answer seems incredible as
the claims for the force itself 1t is
produced by simply putting match to
a mixture of aluminium filings and OK
ide of chromium, both metallic, and yet,
as by magic, mighty force is in

Earth treatment has entered into
very large number Of diseases from
time immemorial. 1t Is certain that
some earths have peculiar curative
properties. Hence the mud baths, mar
BILE baths and sand baths for various
ills of the flesh.
But regarding the particular case in
point, do not think that the earth
burial had anything to do with the re-
covery of the child. In the first place,
the electric spark having struck and
passed through its body did not leave
that body charged with electricity.
The child lost consciousness from shock
and when buried was probably in
trance condition. It's feturn to con-
seriousness was due to other causes
than the burial.
But the use of earth for reducing
swellings in cancer cases, in securing
equable pressure around wounds and
for poulticing Is now common in medi-
cine. The original earth poultice man
in this city was DR.. Hewson, who some
twenty or thirty years ago was very
successful In his applications of earth
poultices. To be sure, he was q CRAM"
about some of his treatment, for he in
sisted that his poultiees should be COW
cred with blue paper. But to this day
earth poultices are used after his form
ula with great success.

Odd AilmeDts Puzzle Doctors

PROVIDENCE, r. I.,-After an ILL
ness Of two years, Miss Leonie Jodoin,
20 years old, has died at her home in
Jericho, r. I. A part of this time was
spent as a novice in the Roman Catho
lie convent at Flushing, L. l., which she
was forced to leave on account Of ill
health.
The case had baff1ed New York and
Rhode Island physicians and post
mortem examination was required to
clear up the mystery. At first hemor-
rhages were frequent, and Miss Jodoin
had been treated for consumption. Sew
eral months ago hard lump was de-
tected In her stomach, and an opera
ton disclosed common sewing needle,
one and half inches long, which was
removed. This operation gave her
great relief and recovery seemed GER
tain until recently, when the old pains
returned.
The post-mortem examination re-
vealed, piercing the outer envelope of
the heart, a steel hat pin, four and one
fourth inches long, without a head, and
in the stomach another headless hat
pin, one, one and one-half inches long.
Miss Jodotn never gave any eXplana-
ton of how the needle got in her Stom-
ach, and DR.. c. E. Chagnon, the family
physician, expressed the opinion that
while in a fit of hysteria Miss Jodoin
forced the hat pins into her body.
BY Dr.. Howard chiIds Carpenter.
Hysterical persons as a rule do not
injure themselves purposely. When
they, do hurt themselves, it is generally
to secure sympathy and excite COM
passion. When they throw themselves
about and fall they choose a soft spot,
such as a sofa or bed or a pile of
rugs. Even in their hysteria they do
not deliberately plan personal dam
age of any kind. So, in the case Of
Miss Jodoin hysteria may be eliminated
as a cause for the self-inflicted wounds.
Her using pins in the way that she
did has the appearance Of dementia
rather than anything else. Demented
persons might stab themselves In the
manner described and then keep secret
the cause of their suffering. Regard
ing the pin which pierced the outer
covering of the heart, am inclined to
believe that it was the immediate cause
of her death.
Bullets have been known to penetrate
the heart, and the wounded person to
recover But it Is different where a
rigid instrument pierces the sack of
the heart. In that case the muscular
movements Of the organ would tear
the wound larger and larger, and would
set up Inflammation which would soon
cause death.

WILKESBARRE.-L struck
the house of John Hudock, Russian,
several days ago. 1t passed down the
chimney and struck a child in cradle,
running down its body from the right
shoulder to the left hip and then down
the leg and across the right foot, burn
ing the flesh all the way. When the
parents rushed to the cradle the child
showed no signs Of life.
Neighbors f1ocked in, and as soon as
it could be done grave two feet deep
was made. The child, stripped of all
clothing, was covered with earth, its
head being left free. The rain poured
down, but the crowd stood about the
grave, praying.
Half an hour later DR.. E. M. Davis
reached the place and found the child
conscious and suffering very little. 1t
was taken to the hospital and Is likely
to recover.
The theory of the Russians is that
the earth absorbs the electricity from
the body.
