WALKING AND LONGEVITY.
With Many Centenarians II Was the
Favorite Form of Exercise.

Walking appears TO be the form of
physical exercise most favored by cen
tenarians. 1t is related of one Mae
Donald. who died In Highlands. Scot
land. in 1891. aged 10l: HE was n
great pedestrian. and the year before
h. died. at the age OF 100 undertook
ON wager 10 walk ten miles In two
hours and half. which he performed.
lie was accordingly presented TO the
king at Windsor
Colonel George Perkins. OF Norwich.
Conn, who died thirteen years ago,
aged 100. made a practice Of walking
four miles a day until within few
wears of his death. Mary Wilkinson of
Yorkshire. England, who in 11SS died
at 100. walked to London when she
was past 30. The distance was 30
miles. She made 1t In five days and
three hours. Mary Mcdonnell. a Wig
orous old woman Of Magheratempany,
Ireland. In 1884, when III, walked
fourteen miles.
Sally Morris. who recently died near
Petersburg. w. Va. at the age of 11S,
had. up 10 two years previous to her
death. walked twenty miles 10 town
and back one day In each week.

ans have enjoyed their fayorlte sports

A great railroad enterprise Is getting
nave been made for railroad from
Port Augusta. IN The State Of South
Australia. clear across the southern
edge OF the continent To the mining
town Of Coolgardie, In western Aus
tralia. As Coolgarde is already joined
by rail to Perth, on the west coast, the
transcontinenia road will be complet
ed when il reaches that point
The road will run quite near the sea,
where II telegraph has for years con
nected the eastern and western COASTS
Of the continent. Nine-tenths Of the
mileage will be through one OF the most
barren deserts III the world, but the
building OF railroads through desert
lands no longer offers difficult problems
10 engineers. The problems have been
solved. and no one doubts that the
stretching OF railroad across this
part OF Australia Viii be successfully
carried out.
The engineers say that the limestone
plateau To the north of the Great Aus
tralian Blight. along whose shores the
track will be laid. Is the only part OF
the continent where there are no ma
tive tribes. A considerable number OF
natives. however, live in the western
part of the region TO be trayersed.
Until the engineers recently went
over this desolate country the region
had been crossed only by Eyre, who
while vainly hunting for new pasture
lands, made the Journey in lS4o4l that
cost him so much suffering and the
loss OF his white comrades
This railroad will complete the con
nection by rail of all the important cen
tiers of population in Australia, except
ing some isolated settlements on the
north and northeast coasts. Heretofore
1t has always been necessary 10 travel
by sea between Perth, Fremantle and
Albany. the most important towns In
the state OF western Australia and the
we'll developed region Of Victoria and
New South Wales.
But with the building of this railroad
the journey may be made from the
southwest corner OF Australia through
all the southern states of the common
wealth, and north along the east coast
as far as Rockhampton, on the middle
coast Of Queensland. Thus nearly all
the great mining regions and agricultu-
raj districts will be connected by rail,
either by the line along the coast or by
branches from 1t already In operation
in Eastern Australia. which penetrate
into the mining and wool producing
districts of the interior.
Eyre was saved from death when he
crossed the continent by the discovery
that he could obtain water by digging.
1t will be remembered with what in
finite difficulty the famous overland
telegraph line from South TO North
Australia was carried across the water
less interior tol meet the submarine
cable ON the north coast.
But a great deal has been learned
about practical methods for carrying
on enterprises in the deserts since the
overland telegraph was stretched
across the sandy wastes OF Australia,
and there is no reason 10 doubt that
the desert railroad now 10 be built will
be completed without very great ditti-
cutl-New York Sun.

Channel For Rub.
Der Tires.s
Goodrich Co. Brought
About Reform
OF Great Benefit to Users Of
Rubber Tires.

Hitherto there have been not less
than ten different standards for steel
channel used in applying solid rubber
tires 10 vehicles. There has been 10
standard recognized among rubber
manufacturers, ench one making his
Tres to fit the particular channel he
used. AS large part of the rubber
tire business consists in re-rubbering
wncels already fitted with channcl. it
has very often happened that the rub
bnr ould not fit the channel perfectly
says the India Rubber World.
This necessitated taking off the char
ncl, and putting on a new one, or. as
WAS more often the case, putting the
rubber on regardless of the ut, aud
thus making a defective job. As n re-
tllt, a great many rubber tires have
given poor service for this reason alone
| as ii is absolutely essential to have Il
correct fit between the rubber tire and
! the steel channel.
TO the B. f. Goodrich Co. belongs
:tc credit of starting the movement
which has resulted in universal
standard channel being adopted
by the manufacturers of solid rubber
tles in the United States. The Amer
lean Steel Hoop Co., Of Pittsburg is
now making a complete set of new rolls
for producing the standard channel,
7 Which will be ready in month, per-
haps. The following manufac-
turers have agreed to adopt chnnuc,
made in accordance with this stand
ard, and will furnish their tires to fit:
The b. +. Goodrich Co., The Consol'
idated Rubber Tire Co., The Goodyear
Tire and Rubber Co., The Diamond
Rubber Co.. The Hartford Rub
her Works Co., Morgan & Wright, Cal
umet Tire and Rubber Co., The Victor
Rubber Co.. The Kokomo Rubber Go.
The Gutta Percha and Rubber Manu-
, featuring Co. of Toronto, Ltd, Tit
India Rubber Co., The Pcnnsylvani,
Rubber Co.
The lasting benefit of this actor
will be apparent to all who have hat
anything to do with rubber tires
Dealers in carriage hardware every
where can now carry steel channe
with the assurance that it is adapted
for all tires, regardless of the manu-
facturer. At present there are grea
many tons of channel in stock tina
does not conform to the standar
:. adopted Probably most of this vii
be sold as scrap, and the channel no
fitted to wheels, which does not cor
: form to standard, will probably b
:, changed when the wheels are retired
: so that the trade may expect soon t
see the standard channel in universe
" use.
