TELEPHONES ON CARS.
Useful In Train Despatching-Con IN.
nections Quickly Made.


There are three methods followed
In the application of the telephone
to electric railway despatching; ID
Fixed telephone sub-stations in
booths placed at suitable points along
the line. t2) Jack boxes at poles to
which portable telephones carried in
the cars may be hung and connected
for temporary use. (3) Portable
telephone sets hung upon the front
OF the car, the vestibule platform of
ment made by flexible wires to jacks
at numerous poles along the line.
On some railway lines. says Tech
nical Literature, the method of con-
Meeting a telephone on the car with
the line is not by means of a jack
at the side of one OF the poles, but
BY long slender rod carryingthe
wires, which may be hooked upon
the main lines at any place.
The telephones used on electric
railroad systems must give trans
mission which is clear and loud, and
must be Of types not liable to be
placed out Of service by the jar of
continuous transportation on a car.
Application of the telephone to
train despatching on electric rail-
ways has resulted in marked eco
nomy of both plant and operation. in
that the ability of the superintend-
ent to be informed as to the position
of the various ears and to commune
cate with their operators gives a
greater service efficiency to the road.
The telephone Is of great service in
severe snowstorms by reason of the
facility which it affords for informa-
ton to be given the train dispatcher
as to the condition of the road. In
cases Of mishap the telephone affords
means for the quick clearance of the
track by the facilities of obtaining
wrecking cars or repair hands. In /.
cases of accident not only can medical
help be summoned for the injured
but means can be taken to procure
information relative to details of the
occurrence which may be of great
importance In ascertaining the La
bility of the company.

japanese Rife Rest.

An Austrian military organ draws
attention to one of the minor details
of japanese musketry practice during
the late war which seems TO have es-
caped notice in Europe. In European
armies the question of rife rest for
long range firing has led to many
ingenious contriyances for devislng
tripod arrangements. The Jap
anese War Department solved the
difficulty in a much simpler but
equally effective way. They just
provided the soldier with a bag OF
stout cotton eight inches wide and
20 inches long. which be could carry

on a pier of the Point bridge and the
weather forecaster's river service is
greatly improved A dial In his Office
on the top floor OF the Farmers Bank
building indicates the stage Of water
on the gauge in the river. These
gauges are TO be placed at other river
points, and the forecaster will always
know the river conditions without

be especially valuable in food times
