 In the event of a workman throwing a crowbar or other ob- stacle across the track the cir cult is closed and the danger sig nal is given. If a rail is broken or misplaced the circuit is closed and the red board is given at both ends of the block. A sys- tenn of three wires strung on independent poles furnishes pow CT to the motors which control these signal arms and each sig nal is operated by it's individual system.
 It is estimated that no less than $500,0O0 will be expended in this work on the Iron Mount ain alone, and the entire main line of the Missouri Pacific sys- tenn is being equipped in the same manner.

BLOCK SYSTEM
 TO BE INAUGURATED. Workings of Automatic Wreck Preventive System Now Be- ing Installed on Main
 Line of the I. M.

The new automatic block sys- tenn which the Iron Mountain is putting in on the main line be- tween Jefferson Barracks, Mo. and Texarkana is one of the greatest enterprises ever under taken by this road. With this system in working order it is an impossibility for two trains to collide.
 The system has been placed as far south as De Soto, Mo-, and will be put in operation within the week. In the thirty-two miles from Jefferson Barracks to Desoto there are thirty-eigh blocks, each representing about 5000, and when the 480 miles of track between Jefferson Bar racks and Texarkana is taken into consideration it is seen that the undertaking is of immense magnitude.
 The Iron Mountain has a double track from St. Louis to Jeffer.. son Barracks, a distance of ten miles, and this will not be equipped with the block system, and after Poplar Bluff is passed the track is straighter and will not require as many stations as are being put in north of De Soto. A block is established at every curve and the arm is oper- ated by the train itself. There is no way for one train to enter a block which contains another train without the full knowledge of the engineer.
 A train coming into a block throws the arm to red at both | ends of the block. Passing out of that block into another the first arm shows clear and the one in front changes from clear to red. In this way train is pro- tected both in front and rear by these signals. No signalman is necessary, as the engine coming

AUTHOR OF LOUISIANA" /"

Hiram w. Hayes, the autho, of the historical extravaganza, Louisiana" which is having a run this summer at Delmar gar den, the largest summer resort in the Worlds Fair city, is a New Yorker by birth. He is a graduate of the University of Rochester and a newspaper man of some note, having held promi- nent positions on the leading pa- pers in New York, Rochester, Toledo and Kansas City, but late resigning the position of dramatic editor of the St. Louis Post-Dis- patch to give all of his time to this new enterprise.
 At present all of St. Louis is agog over this wonderful produc- tion which MT. Hayes has launch ed in the Worlds Fair Scity. Nothing quite so elaborate or realistic was ever before seen in St. Louis. A real river of water surrounds the stage upon which real boats sail. The costumes are the finest ever used upon any stage, the caps used by the path finders alone costing $500. The piece abounds in new and strik- ing features.
