Gasoline Motors Cor RaiIroads.


The San Francisco Chronicle says:
The officials of the Hartman lines
are busy experimenting with new
motive power. The idea is to have
automobiles on rails. Single pas
senger coaches will be fitted up with
gasoline motors. and will be used to
speed along suburban routes or on
branch lines where the travel is not
sufficiently heavy to require locomo-
tives and one coach can often do the
service. The motor shave been tried
out by the engineers of the Southern
Pacific and the Union Pacific. and
the latest reports show that they
are being perfected and will rapidly
be adapted for the use of regular
service.
The Union Pacific has been ex-
perimenting with the scheme for
some time. and 1t is announced that
the engineers of the road have fitted
up several cars. which have operated
to the perfect satisfaction of every
one.
The idea is simple in the extreme.
In the rear of single-passenger
coach a powerful gasoline motor is
installed, resembling much the mo-
tor of an automobile. An attach
ment is made to the rear axle OF the
car, after the scheme of an automo-
bile attachment. and the machine is
ready for service The only difficult
ty to overcome in the scheme has
been the tremendous weight of the
average passenger coach. 1t takes
a high horse power engine to drive
the heavy coaches with any speed
and especially to overcome a grade
of any difficulty.
THE officials claim that the most
serious aspects of the problem have
been solved. and it will only be
matter of time before the new cars
will be put into suburban service ol
along side lines. The new system
will be much cheaper than hauling
by locomotives. and 1t is thougn'
that the single cars will be able tc
attain higher speed. The idea ap
peals to the officials in that the en-
tire equipment of a train Will b'
the one car. This will cut down the
train force. and will almost make
It possible to have the car operated
by one man, or at least two. Power
full motors will be installed and hign
pressure brakes. so that the single
messenger coach will be whisked owe
the rails at high rate OF speed an'
can be brought to dead stop by tn
application of the poweriul ai
brakes.

Keeping the Navy Up to Date.

From Harper's Weekly.
 United States naval officers do not ad. init that the monster battleships planned by Great Britain and Italy are necessarily more effective than warships of the Con- necticut-Lousana and Michigan- South Carolina types. Now that fuller details have reached here regarding the Nuniberu battleship, with which Italy expects to outelass the Dreadnought, there is less disposition than ever to overestimate the importance of Italy's move.
 The assumption that the biggest battle ship can whip one of a few hundred tons smaller leaves out of account the matter of seamanship brains, courage marks mansnip and relative efficiency Ameri- can warships may not be as big as the biggest. but in personnel and equipment they equal anything afloat.
 Our newest warshps have steamng radius of 5000 miles. much greater than that of any other battleships afloat. This is a very important element in the fighting efficiency of all war vessels, and one in which the large English and Italian battle ships are likely to fail.

MISS BAXTER OF TENNESSEE.

Miss Margaret Baxter of Knoxville who will arrive later in the season to be the guest of her cousin Miss Florence Rogers. at her home on South Highlands. is now touring Europe, and was presented at the English court The following account appeared in the Knoxville Sentinel:
 Their many friends in this city will be deeply interested in the following article taken from the London World descrip- tive of the presentation at court of Mrs. Baxter and Miss Margaret Baxter, daugh- ter and granddaughter of Knoxvilles most prominent citizen. Col Charles M Me- Ghee
 King Edward and Queen Alexandria. with the Prince and Princess of Wales, all received upon this occasion.
 Miss Margaret Baxter has been hay ing gay social time, and since her pre- sentation has given several entertain ments and has attended the Caledonian ball. the Duchess of Sutherlands ball and many other notable functions. Of late she has been a member of a house party entertained at a hunting lodge with party of distinguished people The clip ping from the London exchange referred 10 is herewith quoted
 'lf I had not known there were other and more vital reasons for their good fortune l should certainly have imagined that the american debutantes who were presented at the court last Friday were there by reason of their good looks. There were but three in the general circle, and these three were decidedly pretty rep resentatiVes of American girhood Oddly enough, they were all very fair-each one with golden hair and blue eyes-so they made a very noticeable little group. Of the three, Miss Margaret Baxter was the tallest She came with her mother, who Is very like her daughter, having the same golden hair and delicate coloring. The girl wore a lovely dress of white tulle Illusion, and her train of white satin was yelled in tnlle embroidered in silver-al- together a lovely dress Mrs. Baxter was in rose-pinlI satin embroidered with pink roses worked in various shades. and her train was of rich ruby velvet lined with pink satin. She carried q bouquet of pink roses and both mother and daughter wore pearls and diamonds on neck and cor sage
 Mrs Baxter has taken D Charles street Mayfair. for the season, and there her husband will join her ATr. c. Baxter is ex-governor of Wyoming state. and very prominent in affairs in the west. The ] army was to have been his career but. like most Americans. he has in his time | played many parts. Ranehing first, and l political affairs next, having engaged his l attention, he soon gave mp the soldier s l life, and now dcvotes himself chiefly to 1 public matters. His daughter is a remark l ably pretty girl, and as she starts her l first London season already provided with l a large number of friends. English as l well as American, she should have a gay time during the next two months.

 Granting that "jemmy'' was also spelled jenny" and jimmy and the, is 10 doubt that it was so speiled-it would ao- pear to be connected with "gir.' an e1- zine for lifting heavy guns, and then a an engine for lifting anything "ginny" for lifting the lid of a lo1l<ed box, and is time the small erowbar now so named would be arrived at Apart from it's bur glarous meaning, jemmy possesses a Va riety of signihcations.
