SPAIN FAR BEHIND NATIONS.
fiilteracy Prevails There to a Most
Amazing Extent.

OF the 2O,OOO,OOO people inhabiting
Spain, only about 50 per cent. can
read and write; another two and one.
half per cent. of the population can
read without being able to write, but
the remaining 621s per cent. are abb
solute illiterates. In the south of
Spain 1t is impossible to get a sery-
ant who can read and write. and
many OF the postmen are unable to
tell to whom the letters they carry
are addressed. They bring a bun.
die of letters to a house and the
owner looks through them and takes
those which are (or which he thinks
are) addressed to him. The Spanish
postmen are not paid by the state;
the recipient of the letters have to
remunerate them according to the
amount of their correspondence. and
each letter costs the addressee at
least one cent 1t is a joke among
the easy-going Spanlards that he who
treats the postmen best receives the
most letters-whether they are In
tended for him or not.

New York.-Of the several monorail
systems demonstrated during the last
half-dozen years, none is SO fascinat-
ing and astonishingly spectacular as
the gyroscope car. recently exhibited
in England by its inventor, Louis
Brennan, c. B.
Unlike some other attempts to solve
the problem of transferring passen-
gers and freight speedily. safely and
cheaply from one city to another. Mr..
Brennan's system is SO exceedingly
simple that wonder is expressed that
1t was not before thought of and given
to an expectant world.
The Monorail Principle.
The principle, of course, is not new.
for rs years have passed since Prof
w. X. johnson devised the gyroscope,
in order to illustrate the dynamics of
rotating bodies. and his invention, in
the shape of toy, is familiar to every
Sae; but the application, or at least
the method of applying the gyroscope
to balance car suspended upon a
single rail or cable, is entirely novel
} Some years ago certain scientist ap-
piled the principle to boat, but, while
he was eminent. he was impractical

system was tried at Ballybunnion, Ire
land. This was a ground railway
and the line being only some Is miles
long was only experimental. Both
cars and locomotive straddled the
road, embracing 1t as a rider does

set of wheels which followed rail on
either side of the triangular track
While the weight was borne by one
rail, in reality there were three rails,
for without the guide rails travelling
on the road would have been, to say
the least, precarious. Speeds of 11O
miles an hour have been made, il the
claims be credited.
Prof. G. A. Albertson, an electrical

excited considerable enthusiasm. BY
this system electric magnets gripped
