New Marine Railwax.

- One of the strongest marine rail- ways in the South is being placed in position at present paralleling the old plant just across the bay from the city. The new railway will be capable of lifting from the water with apparent ease the average ship which comes to this port. and upon a completion of the new plant the local company will be m position to handle all work which comes this way. Heretofore vessels needing repairs have had to seek dock age at other Gulf ports. Now, how ever, with the new railway and the docks from the navy yard any class of craft is easily taken care of in these waters. Mayor Welles. who Is one of the owners of the marine rail- way. planned the entire plant. His partner is Captain E. E. Saunders. who is also half owner of the large fishing fleet.

The physiological effects of electric currents have been investigated py Professor Nernst at Bonn. The safety of the human body when exposed to powerful high frequency electric cur rent has been explained as due to the passage of the current over the sur face of the body only. but Professor Nernst finds the reason of the currents harmlessness to be probably that 1t does not have time to effect a change in the ceIIular tissue before the reversal Of the current takes place. Experiments on frogs have confirmed the new theory.
