The constructing Of engines and rear

The constructing Of engines and rear
cars Of this design is a recognition Of
the fact that on some occasions col
llsions are inevitable. The purpose
of the inventor Is to prevent the great
loss Of life and damage which are
caused when such an accident does
happen. II two locomotives of the
design depicted were to collide the
force Of impact would defect one
train on one side the track and the
other train on the opposite side. Thus
what in the usual case would have
been q terribly fatal and destructive
railroad accident is transformed into
n mere derailment.

TECHNICAL EDUCATION AND TRADE.

The question of the influence of tech
nical education upon trade has lately
been much discussed in England. The
President of the Society. Of Chemical
Industry in Liverpool gives some Of
the reasons why Germany is now ad'
vancing so rapidly. as follows: !. Su-
perlor economy thoroughness, atten-
tion to detail. 2. The possession Of n
large number of men trained not only
technically, but literally. 3. A close
alliance Of legislation and of science
with the interests of trade. 4. A ma
tional system of railways and canals
8. Cheap skilled labor working long
hours. 6. A large supply Of unskilled
laborers already trained to habits Of or
der and discipline by army service. Z.
Protective tariffs. s. A good system
of patent laws. He proposes these rem
edies for England: 1. The appoint
ment of Minister Of Commerce. H..
The naturalization of railways and
canals. III. The extension and i'm
provement of secondary education
Nv. A reform of patent laws. The
question discussed is acute i'm England
and it is not without interest in Amer
lea. The remedies proposed are not
all needed here, and to some of them
at least, consent could not now be OBJ
tanned.

Walking Tours.

Walking is an art almost said to
be one Of the lost arts, says Country
Life in America. 1t is astonishing
how few know how to walk; know
how to acquire the measured stride,
the springy step, the easy poise Of the
body and the swing Of the arms, which
make walking at once one Of the most
healthful and enjoyable forms Of phys.
icaI exercise. For the real pleasure
Of walking one must turn to the coun.
try. Pavements are but dead, un.
yielding matter at best. In the turf
Of the country there is a spring in
response to the pressure of the foot
which is a delight and an inspiration
in itself. The purity of the air sets
the blood to racing gloriously. Good
walkers find twenty miles a day a
comfortable average, allowing plenty

TOLD HIS
FORMER
F|ANCEE
Young Husband, Who Figured
in Secret Marriage, Asked
Too Much Of Her.

Elizabeth. oct 24-Angered at the re-
quest OF Joseph F. Seal that she continue
TO receive him as her sweetheart. al
though he had confessed his secret mar
riage to Miss Jennie Burtchell Cheno-
weth, the young mans former fancee
told the parents OF the young woman yes
terday OF their daughters marriage.
The announcement was a surprise 10
the parents OF Miss Chenoweth, whose
board OF works OF Elizabeth Mr. Seal
lives at No. "a Ayre street. Elizabeth.
and is employed as a clerk by the Equits-
BILE Life Assurance society.
After an acquaintance ofS less than
three weeks at Asbury Park the young
people wero married on September / by
the Rev. DR.. Langley. Of Trinity church.
Asbury Park.
Seal and Miss Chenoweth spent their
summer vacations at Asbury Park, he
living at the Princeton hotel and she at
the Epworth house. directly across wes-
ley lake from each other.
The witnesses to the marriage were
Rector Langley's wife and August Paul
Hillerman. son OF the proprietor OF the
Princeton hotel
At the request of the bride and bride
groom 1t was decided to keep the mar
riage secret for two years, or until
they got ready TO announce 1t. To this
tho witnesses and DR.. Langley agreed.
Mr.. Seal returned to Elizabeth the day
after his marriage and the same evening
called at the home OF his former fianoe
lie confessed to her that he had been
married and begged that she forgive him
for the slight he had cast upon her. He
pleaded that he had been unable to re-
sist and that 1t would ruin all hts plans
II the wedding should become known at
the present time.
The young woman magnanimously
promised to say nothing about II unless
circumstances involving her self-respect
should make II necessary for her to tell
OF the secret wedding.
According 70 the story OF the young
woman. Mr.. Seal asked that she receive
HIM at her home the same as ever, de-
spite his marriage, so that the deception
could be better continued. This the
young woman refused to do.
She kept the secret until yesterday,
when she met Mr.. Seals father and mo-
ther in the street. They told her their
son had informed them that she had
quarrelled with him. and asked the rea-
son.
Rather than be placed in a false posi-
tion she told them Of his secret marriage
to Miss Chenoweth. and ther on the ad-
vice OF friends went 10 the homo Of the
bride and told her mother and father of
II.
The daughter was called In and readily
admitted to her mother her marriage.
She said:
"Mr. Seal and knew each other three
weeks and we are not sorry for what we
did. We intended announcing our we'd
ding IN November. as there is no reason
why we should keep It secret longer. My
husband will come TO the homo Of my
parents 10 live"
