To Prevent Collision. at Sea.

Consul ]. /. Britain of kehl reports
that a Berlin engineer has applied for
a patent for an invention TO avoid col
lisions between vessels at sea. BY the
inventors system vessels are supplied
with special wireless telegraphic ap-
paratus, which acts over a short cir
cult, even as short a distance as half
mile As soon as a vessel enters with
in q certain distance of another vessel
this telegraphic apparatus acts auto
matically in such manner as TO close
the steam tube 10 the screw on each
vessel. The machinery is thus instant
IL checked. and the steamers have time
TO reverse the engines or reduce speed.
In this manner accidents can be pre-
vented. The apparatus is for use il
fogs and other heavy weather.

The first actual consideration of the
subject of union foreign missionary
work came up in the afternoon, in
the presentation of and discussion up
on several highly interesting papers.
Mrs Mahala Jay of this city, secre-
tary of the American Board of For
eign Missions, read comprehensive
resume of the work of the American
Yearly Meetings in the foreign mis-
sion fields 1t has been but thirty-hve
years since the Friends invaded the
foreign fields, Mrs. Jay said, and view
ed as whole and considering the
method employed, the results have
been highly satisfactory. Mrs. Jay
said that the American Friends were
supporting sixteen separate and indie
pendent foreign mission boards which
conducted the work in ten different
countries Much success. she said, has
come out of the conditions that may
still be regarded as primitive.

which was considered from two view

other. THE Financial by James Ca

methods in vogue by six of the most
successful denominations in the for
eign mission fields The denomina
lions cited were the Baptist, Episco-
PAL, fTtSDs terrain, AetIouAo1, hOIdRK
ans and English Friends. In each Of
these denominations the foreign mis- |
sions are under he oversight and gen |
