Three Hundred Miles Per Hour.

BY a system of magnets placed beneath
which. when charged, are attracted to the
rail and so lift the car into space-Dr.
Albert c. Albertson, a distinguished cleo
trical engineer of the Royal University
of Denmark, claims that he has solved
a great transportation problem, making
the speed of 300 miles an hour not only
possible but probable. Not only this, but
trains equipped with this patent will run
without wheels. the railroad structure
will be lighter than a ten-horsepower en-
CINE will be used instead of one of 300
horsepower. DR.. Albertson's invention
aims simply to overcome the weight of
the present railway train by means of
powerful magnets These are attached to
the bottom of the cars in such way as
to lift the wheels and render a 1000 pound
car as light as one pound. The attraction
of gravity thus being overcome, the heav-
TEST train becomes light as air, and can
be rushed along the tracks with only at
mospheric resistance to contend with
The magnets clamp the rail above and
below so that il is impossible for the
train to leave the track. Mr.. Albertson' s
announcement is that there has been dis
covered a method of abolishing the dead
weight of the train, leaving only aerial
resistance to be contended with. If this
can be done, as Mr.. Albertson asserts.
half of the battle is won, and the world
may yet be able to travel on the earth's
surface with the much-dreamed-of hun
dreds of miles an hour.-Express Gazette.

CONVICT WANTS TEETH.
Prison Directors Discuss an Unusual
and Momentous Application.


SAN QUENTIN, Sept. 12-G. S. Hans
Ter. life-termer in San Quentin prison,
wants the Board of Prison Directors to
furnish him a set of false teeth Hansler
has not a single molar in his head. is
utterly devoid of friends and claims his
entire worldly possessions consists of
81 so on deposit at the prison treasury.
The directors have no funds available
for such purposes and Warden Tompkins
claims the prisoner is fast losing his
health by being unable to masticate his
food The matter was presented to the
prison directors during their session to-
day and occupied considerable of their
time.
Director FELTON, was particularly anxious
that the convict be provided forthwith
a plate, but the other members of the
board. while concurring in the belief that
they were essential, yet asserted there
was no provision made for such pur-
chases; that It would establish a prece-
dent for convlcts to ask for all kinds of
things, and that the bill would not be
paid.
Very WELL" said Senator FELTON,, 'Het
US create a fund quick If 1t can not be
done any other way, / will take up a
collection myself There should be
missionary fund for just such purposes.
We do not have to buy wigs, toupees
and any old thing for these inmates, but
when a fellow needs teeth he needs them

and believe in helping deserving cases."

be referred to the Board of Examiners
with recommendation that the prison d.
rectors be allowed to outfit Hansler with

ROCK CRUSHERS
MAY BE STOPPED
Water Scarcity at Fol
som Prison a Serious
Problem.
Directors May Be Obliged to
Install an Electric
Plant.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAN RAFAEL Sept Flowing to the
shortage Of water in the American River
and the large consumption Of water by
the Folsom Light and Power Company
the State prison at Folsom cannot derive
enough power to operate the rock crush
ers on full time. In fact, the crushers
cannot now be run with enough speed to
turn out rock I'D to standard.
The Board of Prison Directors had the
matter brought to their notice long time
ago and have IN various ways tried to OBJ
viate the existing difficulty, but without
tangible results. The directors have now
been submitted a proposition to alleviate
the trouble and at their next meeting at
Folsom prison on Saturday, September 49,
will investigate the proposition thor
oughly.
The rock crushers at Folsom are ope-
rated by waterpOwer. Many years ago
the Folsom Power Company and the
State jointly dug a canal Two falls were
constructed in this canal one of twelve
feet, and lower down stream one of seven
feet The corporation was TO get the
water from the steep drop, while the
prison was TO be supplied by the seven
foot fall. A powerhouse was constructed
and sluicegates erected.
Subsequently the State officials and the
power company had a misunderstanding,
resulting in an injunction suit which is
still pending In the meantime the cor
poratiOn has closed the upper canal gates
thus depriving the prison of as much
water as is necessary.e At this time OF
year the water is low and the prison is
Curtailed greatly in their supply. Some
thing must be done at once or the rock
crusher plant soon must be shut down.
1t is asserted that there is a movement
on foot 10 either effect a compromise with
the power company upon past differences
10 absorb ii, or 70 entirely eliminate water
power at Folsom and install an electric
plant similar TO the one now in operation
at San Quentin. John Martin, president
Of the Central Gas and Electric Company
was at San Quentin to-day and for sew
eral hours was ciOseted with the direc-
tors. During this conference it is under
stood plans We're devised for the solution
OF the problem.

UNDERGROUND Trunk Line.

A remarkable scheme, which has for It's
object the relief of congestion of traffic in
the streets of Chicago, is proposed by the
Illinois Telephone and Telegraph Company.
The scheme is to run an underground
trunk line to @ tract twelve miles south
of the city A summary of plans and pos
sibilities of the project is as follows: An
expenditure of $15,OO0,000 in tunnels, by
feet or u by IA feet; transportation OF
freight by means of ten-foot electric cars,
which will be brought right into the base
ments of Chicago's big buildings by means
of elevators. The tract, with its ware
houses and direct tunnel connection with
the easements Of the principal buildings
of Chicago, will result in the abolition OF
freight sheds and depots in the heart OF
the city. Congestion in the heart of the
city will be so relieved that the running
time of street cars will be materially in
creased.-EXchange

Importance in surplus wheat production.

the beginning of its crop year-amount
to 50, 900 bushels, compared with IT,
724.O00 in the same time last year. Appar-
emily it is to be a record year for the
South American republic in this particu-
lar. But the country is making very slow
progress toward becoming one which can
be relied upon to supply as much as 80.

still so limited or confined to so uniform
a land surface that unfavorable climatic
conditions for one section means a gen.
