GERS are much impressed with the
work which has been done with the
galloping ambulance, a vehicle used In
the British army and lately under test
In the American service, says q Wash

Tribune. Hight of these new ambr
lances, each to be drawn by q single
horse, have been ordered BY the quar-
termaster general and are to be sent
to the various posts where cavalry
troops are on duty. It Is expected
greater speed can be obtained with
this vehicle than with any other type
OF ambulance, in addition to which
quality 1t is SO constructed as to with
stand the shock and jar Of rapid tran
sit over rough country. One OF these
gailoping ambulances will be sent to
Cuba as soon as 1t Is ready and Will be
subjected to severe tests In that island.
The army surgeons. however, are per-
fectly satisfied that the galloping ann
bulance has come to stay and Will
hereafter form q part Of the mobile
equipment OF the medical department
In the field.

ton OF the walks in front Of their

hills and valleys Of snow and ice In
some places and a sea Of slushy snow:
in others, when the expenditure Of
half a dollar or little elbow grease
would make the walks passable. In
jamestown this winter the people were
compelled by the city to have their
walks cleaned OFF by ten o'clock in the
morning or there was trouble. IT
seems that such drastic action will
have to be taken here. The comments
on the city's seeming lack Of civic
pride are not pleasant to hear from
the visitors who have to navigate the
hills and dales in front Of most Of
the residences.

J MATRIMONIAL AUTOS NOW.

Built IN She Shape Of a Heart and Or.
namented With cupids.
Matrimonial automobiles in chit
cago may result from an announce
ment in Pittston, Pa, that d ssmatri-
monial coach has been buff there Ii,
the shape OF 4 heart, covered with de
signs of the heart shape and orna-
mented with Cupids, says the Chicago
News The automobile will be heart
shaped, too, and also be constructed
with q speed capacity sufficient to as
sure the safe escape Of clipping couples
from Wrathful parents 1901
Chicago automobile dealers are en-
thusiastic over the idea. G. A. Coey
said:
The two main features Of the ma.
chine would be the significant shape
and the high speed. 1t could be con
structed in the shape Of a heart, with
Cupid guardians on the tonneau and
on the lanterns ahead. The machine
could be geared to an ordinary speed
Of at least seventy miles per hour In
order that fleeing couples might have
no trouble in making their escape. !,
In view Of the advent Of the matri-
monial automobile 1t is not thought
probable that the liyerymen Of Chicago
will equip carriages in the manner
which the Pittston coach Is said to
have been equipped, as they seem to
feel that It would not be profitable.
Hotel men we're little more enthusi-
astic. 81
The trouble with it, said Abe
Frank OF the Sherman House, tis the
reticence Of the couples as to letting
people know they are married. AS a
rule, they want to hide. With the car
riage that would not be possible, but
with the automobile / presume they
could travel SO fast that no one would
know them anyway. It would be a
good joke, though, If friends Of q
newly married couple could substitute
the matrimonial cab for an automobile
Il they ordered one and then go along
In q machine to see that they didn't
get away" al
