A Balloon incline Railroad.

Consul William Bardel writes from
Bambery that Engineer Balderauer.
Of Salzbcrg. has invented a balloon
railroad. experiments with which are
now being made in the mountains in
tie neighborhood of that German city.
It consists of a stationary balloon,
which is fastened to a slide running
along a single steel rail. The rail is
fastened to the side Of a steep oun
tain. which ordinary railroads could
not climb. except through deep cuts
and tunnels. The balloon is to float
about 35 feet over the ground, and
q heavy steel cable connects it with
the rail-. The conductor can, at will,
make the balloon slide up and down
the side of the mountain. For going
up the motive power is furnished by
hydrogen gas, while the descent Is
caused by pressure of water, which
is poured into a large tank at the UP.
per end of the road, and which serves
as ballast. Suspended from the bal
loon is a circular car with room for
ten passengers. The cable goes from
the bottom of the balloon through the
center of the car to a regulator of
speed, which is controlled by the con-
ductor. The inventor of this railroad
claims that his patent will force all
incline cable roads out of existence.

INSPECTOR Of
POLICE HEAD Of
RObbER GANG

Chicago. Sept H.-An interesting story
OF police methods was told yesterday at a
hearing on charges that have been pre-
ferred by Chief OF Police Collins against
Inspector Patrick j. LAWN. who is ac-
cused Of conniving at crimes in his dis
trict while a police captain.
Patrick Il. Mahoney, a former patrol
man under LAWN. testified that he was
Intimately acquainted with brother of
LAWN. who was police sergeant. and that
Patrick j, LAWN, then a captain, called
him into private room In the police sta
tion and declared that he was about to
take the examination for promotion 10 po-
lice inspector and that IL would aid him
In securing the promotion IL ne could do
a good job OF police work before the ex-
animation was held. LAWN then said.
according TO the witness:
There is a Dutchman over here on
wentworth avenue near Fiftieth street
who owns "A jewelry store with 5000 10
$4,000 worth OF stun I'm the safe. Now,
you know some handy fellows who can
touch the place off II will be worth 5000
to me 10 have the job pulled off and then
turn back the stuff as If II had been re.
taken"
Mahoney said that he agreed to the
proposition OF LAWN. and made arrange
ments with James Clark and Thomas
Barry to rob the place. Several boxes OF
jewelry, according to the witness, were
carried from the place and some money
was secured which was divided between
the men and himself The jewelry was
concealed in the basement of his own
house, Mahoney declared
Bernard j. Hagaman, the jeweler who
was called the "Dutchman" by the wit
ness, preceded Mahoney on the stand and
said that his place had been robbed. as
Mshoney afterward described and said OF
the jewelry taken, some OF IL. valued at
$500. had never been returned TO him.

SOME FACTS ABOUT THE
DREAD DISEASE LEPROSl

The fact that many persons come into
intimate contact wit lepers for years
without becoming affected is not strange
when one reflects that the same applies
20 the closely allied disease--tuberculosls
Men have voluntarily submitted them
selves TO direct inoculation with material
from the sores. discharges. etc, Of lepers.
yet I'm only one case (that of a hawaiian
convict who when condemned 20 death.
submitted TO the alternative OF inocula-
tion) was the actual disease produced in
this artificial manner.
There is no cure for leprosy. All the
remedies proposed after the disease be-
comes well seated have been OF nttle use
The utmost attained is a prolongation
OF life and mitigation OF suffering.
There H. "a tradition which has OF late OBJ
tained some scientific support that Ash
diet Is one OF the necessary causes Of
leprosy. either through tainted FISH con-
tanning some substance which stirs the
bacilll into activity or through the baclln
growing I'm the fsh and thus being taken
into the stomach. This lunacy may have
originated in the belief that the scales of
the leper and the scales OF the FISH are
analogous Leprosy exists among inland
people who never eat fish and does not
seem specially prevalent among those OF
the coasts who eat most fish. A curious
thing about leprosy Is that only one wo-
man Is effected TO every four men.-New

A DIFFERENCE
IN LUNGS.

In the Edinburgh Uni
versity three human lungs lie
side by side. One is Of an
Eskimo and is snow white.
In life, this would be ruddy
with rich blood. Another is
that of a coal.miner and is
black. The osner IL of a town
dweller and is a dirty slate
gray, as are the lungs of most
city residents. That's why
consumption thrives ir cities.
One reason why SCOTS
Emulsion does so much to
keep down consumption is
because it helps to keep the
lungs clean and supplies
them with rich, red blood. 1t
makes the lungs germ.re-
sisting. If the body is run
down and health is at a low
ebb SCOTS Emulsion will
build it up quickly and per-
manently.
