brought to the territory, called the
Corllss bomb-proof. 1t is spherical in
form, about four feet in diameter and
made of cast steel with walls about 70
inches thick. 1t rests on concrete
base especially prepared to receive its
great weight, about $1,000 pounds.
Its position is outside the vault di-
rectly in front and about six feet from
its west wall. The sphere rests on a
heavy square pedestal with massive
casters.
The cash compartment is in the shane
of second sphere within the outer
shell, which rests on pivot and re-
wolves. The safe is fitted with two
independent time locks, either of which
will open it. 1t is pronounced fire.

NEW ELECTRICAL DEVICE
To Supersede BeII-Cord and Compressed
Air Signals on Trains

The ella Valley, Globe & Northern is
the first railroad to test a new method
for communication by electric signals
between the cars and locomotive, the
invention of NJ. b. Bulla, freight con-
ductor on the Lordsburg run from FL
Paso.
The inventor was in Globe a few days
ago, having been over the run from
Bowie to correct some mechanical de
fects of minor Importance which had
shown up in the practical application of
his theories.
Mr.. Bulla claims that by using his de-
vice all deficiencies now noted in other
methods are rectifed, and no matter
how many cars there are in a train the
signals may be transmitted with perfect
accuracy.
The wires carrying the current are
placed in the air-brake pipes and hose,
and by simple and inexpensive device
the circuit is completed when the hose
is coupled between cars. A dry battery
in the locomotive cab furnishes the cur
rent which is returned to the cab on the
rails, after leaving the journals of the
car axles.
Pressing push button in one of the
cars closes the circuit and causes a bell
to ring in the cab and the engineer re-
spends by pressing a button, which
rings bell in the car. For instance
A conductor will press the button in
passenger car and ring the engine cleo
trio bell three times ; the engineer will
ring twice in the passenger car by
pressing the button which is at his
hand in the cab, whereas by the method
today in vogue, compressed air being
used, the conductor pulls the whistle
cord three times and the engineer blows
two blasts on the locomotive whistle to
signal that he interprets correctly the
order TO stop.
The inventor claims that it will cost
out one-fourth as much to equip a train
with his electrical device as it now costs
for the air apparatus, and that the ex-
pense of maintenance and repairs is
very much less than by the other de-
vices now in use.
The ella Valley train was equipped
about six months ago but it did not at
first prove successful, as the batteries
were not properly secured to withstand
the Jolting of traffic, and the copper
wire connections soon became impaired. |
By using galvanized iron wire and prop |
erly securing the batteries, and other
slight changes, Mr.. Bulla's recent ex-
periments have been most successful. !
1t will be very interesting TO note the |
farther evolution of this invention in
asmuch as it is being tested right before
our eyes, so to speak.

death of General Fitzhugh Lee, who was
a general favorite with everybody. Al
though nearly seventy years old, his was
one of those sEnshiny natures that refuse
to grow old, and you did not realize his
age. His was a life of activity, many
parts, courage and manliness allthe way
through. Many honors had come to him,
yet he was always the same CHEEKY, CON-

never acquired the swell hsad, and ifany-
