DEATH BY THIRD RAIL
OR DANGEROUS TROLLEY WIRES NO
LONGER FEARED.
AMERICAN SAFETY TRACTION co.,

Controls the Humane Invention o.
the Age.

Controls the Humane Invention OF
the Age.
No need now OF using the deadly third
rail-
Or the dangerous overhead trolley sys-
tent
Nor OF encumbering the streets with the
unsightly trolley poles!
The new system of operating electric
cars, controlled by the American Safety
Traction company. has made all this FEAST
BILE and practicable.
The new underground device for pro-
polling electric street cars has been demon
strated to be a great success on the Worces-
ter & Blackstone Valley street railway.
Much interest and enthusiasm have
been manifested in this new invention
among electricians, railroad men and capi-
tallsts. Recently party OF local capital
lists went to Milbury, Mass, to see the
road in operation. All were pleased with
the practical workings of the new system.
So highly did these practical. hard headed
business men, including well-known and
reputable electrical engineers, think OF it
that in few days after they visited Mil
bury they arranged to organize the Ameri-
can Safety Traction company.
Practical railroad men and electrical en-
gineers who have examined the new sys-
TEN say there is great future for it, To
quote the words OF Thomas Sanders of
Haverhill, after witnessing the trial of the
new system at Milbury, he declared it ''the
most promising invention since the Bell
telephone" IL viii be remembered that
Mr.. Sanders was Mr.. Bells financial
hacker, and with his friends, organized
the original Bell Telephone company. The
result is known to everybody. Surely Mr..
Sanders opinion is worth having. and this
is his opinion of the American Safety
Traction company's device.
1t is absolutely safe; the unsightly troll
ley pole, live wire and deadly third rail are
done away with by this new system. 1t
can be installed on any road, elevated
structure or surface line at such low cost
that progressive railroad management. ap-
preciating its value as a saver OF electricity
and removing all menace to human Life,
must necessarily adopt it,
just ponder over this and figure out the
possibilities of the future Of the American
Safety Traction company. Is it any won
der that Mr.. Sanders termed it a second
Bell telephone?
The American Safety Traction company
is the parent company. From II ali

fact thar he will have hard time in
securing the presence of local shooters
after November !.

"Joe" Nelson. the dminutive cycling

was probably fatally injured in Balti-

in the lead owing TO their great record
breaking feats back of the pacing ma
chimes. Whether back of tandem pace
or single pace, these riders have pre-
vailed, and their records are marvellous
enough to cause wonder the world over.
So much attention has their speed at
tracted that French promoters are even
now making every effort to induce their
manager to take them to France this
fall.
In the grist of records Nelson and
Monroe are found TO have broken no less
than 131, majority OF which they will
probably hold safely during the year.
unless. indeed, they break them them
selves before the close of the year. From
the one-mile to the twenty five miles in-

pair uUiu every lIsti II, ANViooh

that mark.
From the one mile to the hour inclu-
sive. back of single pace the pair hold
every record. Nelson having all 10 eight
miles, and Monroe all from that point
to the hour record OF thirty eight and
fve-eighths miles.
The fastest mile of the year goes 10

five miles at an average gait of 1:i9 %

1:21 $40 are marks which will take
some time beating.
But the most remarkable record break

paced race at Philadelphia. when on the
eght-lap track Monroe averaged
1.26 $40 10 the mile for twenty miles.
Nelson's first mile III i:24 20 and Mon

almost surpass belief. inasmuch as the
record formerly averaged 1:29 to the

made to raise the necessary funds for
building and running her.
IF enough money is not raised by
private subscription, which it is thought
will be done without much difficulty, it
has been proposed to open a public
subscription, witch would be sure to
meet with a ready response, SO that
Boston can have Burgess boat in the
