Ambulance Drills In England.

Fritz Morris writes entertainingly In
The Technical World Magazine OF the
Inter Railway Ambulance competitions,
which take the place of football and
other bone breaking games among the
organized railroad employees Of Great
Britain. All such employees are care
fully trained In the proper methods Of
handling people injured In accidents
and, In the annual contests, teams OF
the most expert, representing various
lines, meet to decide which can handle
a given number Of cases In the shortest
time and In the most skillful manner.
Railway ambulance men take the
keenest interest In this competition. In
1905, twenty-four railway companies
were represented by teams In the con
test Preliminary heats are held on
three successive days-one in the prov
inces, and two in London--to decide the
six best teams, who again compete in
the "Final."

One Of the most peculiar incidents Of

in Paris in the course Of motor cycle

In the accompanying illustration, taken
from the Illustrated London News.
The race was run by two competitors,
Pernette and Contant. Pernette fell,
and his body and his motor cycle occu-
pied nearly all the track. Contant, IN
his endeavor to avoid his comrade els

swept up to the palisade, which his

top Of the "u" In the word Humber"
At a speed Of fifty miles an hour he

Trollope at Work.

1t was the customary habit of An.
thony Trollope, perhaps the most me-
thodical Of well-known English novel
lists, to always write with his watch
open on his desk. When at work he
drilled himself into the practice Of
writing $50 words every quarter Of an
hour and placed his watch before him
to make sure Of completing his thou
sand words an hour. He pooh-poohed
the idea Of waiting for inspiration and
punctually produced his copy with the
regularity Of clockwork whatever his
mood at the moment. He made cal
culation to show that In this way, by
working at his desk only three hours
daily, he could write ten pages Of an
ordinary novel a day and finish three
novels comfortably each year. lrol-
lope could also write as easily In rail-
