AIRSHIP AND A TRAIN.
Come Near Colliding In England Dur
ing Flight of Aeronaut SIAN
ley Spencer.

stop your train" yelled Stanley
Spencer as his airship was rushing
head on toward an approaching ex-
press train near Preston, England, the
other day.
stop your airship,' yelled the engi-
neer.
Mr.. Spencer proved that his airship
is dirigible by lodging the express
train, ramming tree, and ending his
26-mile voyage in its branches. He
was uninjured.
Spencer, who recently made sue
cessful trip over London, rose to-day
from Blackpool, but, finding the north
west breeze too strong to make head
way against it, he proceeded in a
southwesterly direction and landed In
the open country.
There was a good breeze when he
assembled. When he was 600 feet high
he made several evolutions against
the wind and finally sailed off in the
same direction the wind was blowing.
When he was descending he found
he was over a railroad, with his trail
ing rope dangling among the tele-
graph lines along the line. His dia-
logue with the engineer followed.

OLDEST OF ALL FADS.
Lovers of the Day Seek to Have Their
Pictures on Their Sweet
hearts Shoes.

It Is said that the fashionable girl
of the present day carries the picture
of the young man she loves in her shoe,
and the secret of her heart may, there
fore, be learned by looking at her feet.
There is nothing occult about 1t. Hyp-
notism, mental telepathy and things of
that sort are not concerned. If the girl
Is up to date, all you have to do is to
look at her feet, for there you will see
the picture of the happy man, says the
Chicago Chronicle.
She wears it In the buckle of her slip
per, so that the best time to learn the
truth Is when she is at dance. At a
function Of the kind in Wissahickon re-
Gently a half-dozen of the girls had
their sweethearts at their feet, which,
according to amatory tradition, is
right and proper.
When the miniature fad originated
the modish girls were pleased to wear
the counterfeit presentments their
courtiers at their necks. Then they
moved to the belt buckle, but 1t Is the
prerogative of woman to change her
mind, and man IS once more lowered.
Already the new fancy is gaining sup
porters, and many slipper miniatures
are being made with the portraits OF
matinee idols" This is for the ac-
commodation of those girls who have
not yet succeeded in finding a. man to
admire at close range.

CHANCE FOR LUMBERMEN.
British Columbia Said to Offer an In
wiling Field for Their Ac-
tIvlties.

British Columbia offers an inviting
field for lumbermen. Employment now
awaits several thousand men. Consul
Dudley at Vancouver, in report to the
department of state, in which he deals
with the lumber industry, says: THE
lumber business in this province is
prosperous just now. A few months
ago the provincial government placed
TN export duty upon all logs sent from
this province to the United States.
This applies only to logs cut from gov
eminent lands. Lands in the hands of
private owners or crown granted lands
are not affected by this regulation.
Nevertheless, the placing of this export
duty on logs has increased the number
of mills here considerably, especially
single mills. One mill cuts 100000
shingles daily. These are red cedar
shingles, and large portion of the out
put is shipped to the United States.
IAN agent of one of the lumber mills
has just stated that he has orders
booked that will take him 18 months to
fill. There is great lack of men. He
says that 5000 or 5000 men could find
employment in the lumber and shingle
mills and in the logging camps. The
wages are probably lower and the cost
of living higher than in the adjoining
state of Washington. Still, if men ac-
customed to numbering work are out
of employment there is little doubt
they can find it here.
"Of course, there is contract labor
law here, as in the United States, and it
contracts in advance, but l have little
doubt that competent lumbermen, able
to handle mill machinery or to do good
work in the woods, can find employ
ment in this vicinity if they come. The
destruction of timber in Washington
and Oregon by the recent fires causes
the people here to hope that they may
find larger market than heretofore
for their timber in these states, not
withstanding the export duty"

MISS CARNEGIE'S LION.
The Big Hairy Animal, Bought for
the New York Zoo, Is Safe
ly Landed.

That big and hairy lion which An
drew Carnegie's daughter bought and
gave to the New York geological park
in the Bronx, has arrived on the Ham
burg-American liner Pretoria, with a
lot more beasts and birds for the
Bronx. When she asked her father to
buy the lion Miss Carnegie specified
that it should be the largest and hair
lest lion in the world. The lion that
came may not be the biggest in the
world, but he fills the bill SO far as hair
is concerned. His name grows from
his head, shoulders and TANKS, and
flows over half of his body.
Miss Carnegie's lion came originally
from Barbary. Alongside his cage in
the ships hold were two fine specimens
of Nubian lions. They are not so tall
nor SO long by several inches as the
beast from Barbary, and they are two
feet or more shy on name. But on
roars with the ships roll and pitch the
Nubians held their own. Director Will
liam t. Hornaday, Of the geological
park, was at the pier to meet his new
pets. There were two deaths among
the animals on the voyage. The cloud
ed leopard, the rarest beast In the col
lection, died on the fifth day out from
Hamburg. But the skin was saved
and will be mounted and placed in the
700 park.

GERMANY LIKES RECIPROCITY
An Increase of Trade Is Reported
After Ten Years Experience
with the Policy.

A reports of, great interest to the
United States at this moment, in view
of the tendency of reciprocity treaties
before congress, is that made to the
state department by United States Con-
sui Ozmun, at Stuttgart, relative to the
workings of reciprocity arrangements
in Germany. He shows that Germany
has now had ten years experience in
trade relations with seven different
European countries conducted under
commercial treaties and the results of
their workings have been carefully
compiled and arranged in ia bular form
in this report. The consul's conclu-
sions are, in brief, that Germany, by en-
tering into commercial treaties with
these seven different countries, was
able to increase her export trade with
them A per cent, while at the same
time the imports from these countries
exceeded the exports to them, this ex-
cess being 80 per cent. lass in the last
three years of treaties than in the
three before they came into operation.
This greatly increased volume of trade
has made reciprocity treaties popular
in Germany.

TO CHANGE THE RULES.
Jew System of Rating to he Inaugu-
rated by the New York Yacht
Club Management.

The committee on measurement OF
the New York Yacht club, appointed to
consider the advisability of change in
the rating rule, which has been found
fault with because OF the ease with
which, under it, freak boats are being
developed, will submit its report to the
club at its annual meeting.
The committee recommends a new
rating rule by which the rating meas
urement is found by multiplying the
length of the yacht, obtained as pro-
vided for, by the square root of the sail
area, and dividing the result by five
times the cube root of the displace-
ment. This is radical change from
the old formula.
This report is of international inn
portance and will affect the measure
ment of yachts not only in this country
but in Europe.
The correspondence between Sir
Thomas Upton and Commodore Led
yard disclosed the fact that The new
measurement, if adopted, will not APP
ply to the cup races nextyear.
The order for the new cup defender
in the races with Sir Thomas Lipton's
Shamrock III. has been placed with the
Herreshoffs at Bristol, II. l. Plans for
the new craft were drawn up many
weeks ago in anticipation of the chal-
lenge and orders were placed for con-
structional metal and other requisites,
ca Tho buil1arc are now Dractica Y
ready to begin work as soon as the
material has been assembled.
The condition of affairs about the
boatshops, however, indicates that
operations on the craft may not be
commenced for a month or six weeks,
as the builders are constructing a set
of boatshops, in one of which the new
boat will be built, and it will take &c
days to finish the sheds.
