NEW IDEA FOR EXPRESS TRAINS.
Makes No Stops, But Drops Passen-
gers Off at Stations.

gers Ut at Stations.
A model of a new device was re-
Gently shown before the members OF
the British Association, by means OF
which it is possible to put passengers
off at any station along a railroad
without stopping the train.
The model showed a circular track.
The last carriage on the train was
slipped as each station was passed,
and passengers wishing to alight at
the next station would proceed to the
last carriage, the train being of course
continuous on the American plan, so
that access could be had right
through. Then the slipped carriage
had deposited its passengers and TAX
en- up fresh load, it would be started
and the next train would be allowed
gradually to catch it up. 5. It would
then form part Of the new train until,
having passed a sufficient number of
stations, it came to be the last car
rage again, when it would be once
more slipped. Of course the cars
would be electrically driven, and the
author exhibited model showing
how by an electrical device. it could
be shown in the separate car and in
the overtaking train how far the two
were apart.

Procs Of FiliaI Affection.

When a Carthage father became SO
badly Jagged few nights ago that he
could not walk, his muscular son threw
him over his shoulder and "toted" him
home much as he would have carried
a sack of four-an exhibition which
tends to disprove the theory that filial
affection is ecreasing.-Kansas City
