Pennsylvania Man with Rep

Stroudsburg, Pa.-Martin Fish, a
Canadensis man. has devised new
sort of show to give the thrills to
jaded summer boarders and although
he asks but the modest sum Of ten
cents admission, he is making out
we'll with it.
Flsh's stock in trade consists Of
ss rattlesnakes. which he himself
caught in the neighborhood Of his
Canadensis home. They vary in
length from three feet to five.
Visitors are admitted to the room
where the reptiles are. and are usu-
ally greetpd with vigorous kissing
and rafting. for the snakes are in
prime fettle, thanks to Fish's knowl-
edge Of their habits and how to feed
them.
Spectators are admitted to a post
quite near the exhibit, but of course
in a position secure from danger
Townspeople and neighbors are ad-
mitted free. and Fish merely charges
summer visitors enough to reward
his efforts in catching and caring for
the uncanny creatures.

While we are inclined to criticise
English railroads with much freedom,
they have a record in one respeT
which our own railroad managers
must look upon with respect The
gross earnings of the English roads
never showed an unfavorable fuctu-
alton. as compared with previous
wear of over IL per cent. With all
the talk of poor railway management
OF decadent industries and of the
economic evils of war, it is confusing
to find that the commercial develop
ment of Great Britain, measured by
her gross railroad traffic, presents an
almost unbroken record Of advance.
Net earnings, however, have been
badly cut into by the rise in wages and
by the higher cost of fuel-Scribner

WEIGHS ONLY FOUR GRAINS
Smallest Engine in the World Truly a
Marvel Of Mechanical Ingenu-
ity--Its Dimensions.

"Tiny Tim, as / have named this
smallest of all engines" writes T. II.
Robinson in the Technical World
Magazine, is made of gold and steel,
and is so small that common house
fly seems large In comparison. 1t fits
easily into the smallest 22 short cart
ridge, balance wheel and all II
weighs just four grains complete.
That is about the weight Of a com.
mon match. 1t takes 120 such en-
gines to weigh one ounce and / 1920 to
weigh a pound Three million eight
hundred and forty thousand engines
equal one ton.
"The engine bed and stand are OF
gold. The shaft runs in hardened
and ground steel bearings inserted in
the gold bed These bearings are
counter-bo from the inside to form
a self-oiling bearing. The fywheel
has a steel center and arms, with a
gold rim, and this part-the complete
wheel-weighs one grain.
THE cylinder is of steel with oc-
tagonal base highly polished. The
stroke is one-thirty-second Of an inch,
bore three-hundredths Of an inch.
Seventeen pieces are used in the con.
struction Of this engine.
"The feed is through the gold base,
which is hollow. The speed Of this
engine is 5000 revolutions per min
ute. When running 100 per second no
motion is visible to the eye, but it
makes note like the noise of mos
quito, caused by the vibrating piston
rod.
The horse power is 1-49SOO0 Of one
horse power. Compressed air is used
to run these engines and it may be OF
interest to note that the amount re-
quired to make the large engine hum
can easily be borne on the eyeball
without winking"

RuILT UP WHOLE COUNTRY
Construction of Western Railways
Means Much in Development
of Industries.

Hand in hand with the building Of
western railways goes the development
OF the country in many lines. With
the increase in population, regions
which are now devoted to farming and
mining will become the scene of many
manufacturing enterprises, and in
their turn will help to swell the total
Of the commerce of the lakes. Already
in Minnesota steps are being taken to
provide cheap power for many diver
sified industries.
In this western country the harness
ing Of the rivers has already begun,
and as a result of the work now being
done on the st. Louis river, with its
ultimate capacity of 100000 horse
power. projects are on foot not only
for the establishment Of many manu-
featuring enterprises, but also for the
electrifcation of some Of the railroads
which now run north from Duluth to
the great mines on the Iron range.
That time, of course, is still far dis
tant. but the present growth of popu-
lation in the northwest country indi-
Gates that the men who are year by
year adding to the railway mileage are
making no mistake. And should the
time ever come when the population
of the country, the proportion Of the
traffic on the great lakes can only be
conjectured for they will then be one
OF the chief means OF communication
between east and west. as they have
always been since the days when only
the birch bark canoes of the Indians
we're seen upon their waters

Congress Given Permission to the
Washington and Western Mary
land Railroad Company

The senate passed house bill No
1906 to amend the act incorporating
the Washington & Western Maryland
Railroad company. The bill was re
ported from the committee on the Dis
trict of Columbia by Senator Whyte
and was passed without debate. A
similar bill has been passed by the
house of representatives several times,
but Senator Whyte's predecessor, the
late Senator German, was opposed to It
and it was never allowed to pass the
senate
The bill provides that the Washing
ton & Western Maryland Railroad
company be authorized to cross the
Chesapeake and Ohio canal and the
government road, commonly known as
the River road. at a point about 2,4OO
feet east of the Chain bridge to point
Immediately north of the River road
by means of a bridge with a clearance
of at least 16 feet above the present
grade of the River road, and so ele-
waited above the canal as not to inter
fere with it's travel and traffic, and to
proceed from that point Immediately
north of the River road and northwest
wardly through the lands Of the Pal
isades of the Potomac company over
a right of way acquired from the Pal
isades Of the Potomac company to the
south line of the receiving reservoir in
the District OF Maryland, thence to the
point of intersection with the line OF
the Metropolitan Southern Railroad
company. The Washington & West
ern Maryland company is authorized
to construct its road over the reservoir
the exact location of which road is
indicated in the bill.
The senate passed the bill without
amendment.

ERROR IN BILL or LADINc
Young Railroad Man Found Burro
Where He Naturally Looked
for a Bureau.

There was a time when Senator
Elxins of West Virginia was hustiine
young freight agent in New Mexico
His office was a box car and his prin'
cipal troubles were in making his re
ceipts of freight tally with his bills
of lading. One day he had carload
of household furniture switched to his
siding. The seal of the car door was
quickly broken, as young Ell1ins then,
as now, always liked to keep up with
his work. He was greeted with the
bray OF an ass as the door slipped
back on its rollers. The bill Of ladine
was at once scanned, but there was
nothing to show that the animal
should be a passenger on this partic-
ular car. The goods were all checked
ont and then Elkins wired the general
Office thus: I'm a bureau short and
a jackass long on this carload of fur
niture." After a little delay the an
swer came: "All o. X. The bureau Is
a burro."

taken as a whole. the weight has been
multiplied three times and the tractive

GEN. BUCHANAN's RETIREMENT.
Lively Struggle Over the Succession to
His Place

Brig. Gen. James A. Buchanan, lately In
command of the Visayas. p. l. land now on
his way home will be placed on the retired
list of the army upon his own application
tomorrow. There Is lively struggle In
army circles over the succession to the
place, but it appears that the vacancy will
not be filled Immediately, because Secretary
Taft has not had opportunity to can
vass the applications with the President.
The Secretary has caused the chief of staff
tail each mans record of service and pecu-
liar fitness for the place. The point of i'm
portance to the candidates is found In the
fact that this list far is strictly limited
to the names of persons who have seen civil
war service. OF course, IT is by no means
certain that the President will be limited In
his choice in this manner. but 1t is believed
at the War Department that he will accept
the Secretary's view in the matter.
