TRACKLESS TRAINS
GO EVERYWHERE,

Locomotives without tracks, draw
ing behind them long trains of cars,
and speeding over the highways, are
today familiar sights in Europe, from
France in the West, to Turkey in the
east. Under the caption, "Trackless
Trains Go Everywhere" Donald
| Burns in the Technical World Maya
zine, so writes. Wherever the ordi-
nary four-wheeled vehicle can go, the
trackless trolley can go likewise. The
author describes one particular mod
ell, known as the Renard train, as
follows: This latest prodigy, the
Renard train, is a train of passenger
or freight vehicles, headed by a
steam or gasoline locomotive which
travels over country roads and town
or city streets. The ordinary rail-
way train calls for steel rails and a
special right of way; the Renard
train has no necessity for either of
these, but shares the common high
way with the horse-drawn vehicle"
Further on, the writer says: 'In
France the Renard train has been
used for military service with mark
ed results. A convoy so transported
occupies one-eighth the space of one
drawn by mules, or horses, and it
travels at a speed of ten miles per
hour" Even Turkey and Persia, two
countries which are noted for their
backwardness in most things, have
been quick to take up the new ideas.

LID ON TIGHT IN ST. PAUL.
or First Time in History Saloons Are
Closed on Sunday,

st. Paul, June II. - For the first
time in its history the lid was on tight
in ST. Paul yesterday. The order to
close went into effect at midnight Sat
urday, and when daylight dawned yes
terday every saloon in the city was
closed. 1t was the first time in the
history of the city that the saloons
have been closed on Sunday. The
thirsty were compelled to journey to,
South ST. Paul for their booze. The
police felt the effect of the dry day
more than anybody else, and not a
single arrest was made after 10
o'clock Saturday night.
The closing of the saloons is the re-
suit of a recent ruling of the supreme
court that the attorney general is m
powered to start action to remove
any official of any municipality who
does not enforce the state laws, which
include the Sunday closing law.
Many of the smaller saloons may be
compelled to go out of business as a
result of the enforcement of the law.

trial of w. d. Haywood for the murder
of Gov. Steunenberg of Idaho, in
which the defense claims to have
thrown light on his motive for killing
S~teunenberg and of his relations with
the mine owners as opposed to the
Western Federation of Miners. The
defense intimates that Orchard was a
spy of the mine owners committing
crimes to throw the federation into
disrepute.
Harry Orchard admitted that since
his imprisonment he has been writing
