NEW RAILROAD SIGNALS.
German Device to Catch Engineers
Attention on Approschina Signals.

Attention on Approaching Signals.
Germany recently has been having
its share of the same epidemic Of rail-
road disasters which aroused the
American public a year ago, and the
large number of accidents which were
traced to the failure of engine drivers
TO see signals has caused the Prussian
railway administration to adopt a new
signal apparatus. The feature of the
new system lies In the warning given
the engineer that he is approaching a
signal about 110 yards before the sig
nal itself is actually reached, says the
New York Times. This is accomplish
ed by the use of an electric cab signal
system which rouses the drivers at
tention by ringing bell and exposing
white slide directly before his eyes
In the cab With his attention thus
stimulated the driver will have no ex-
cuse for running by signal in fog
This combination of outside and inside
apparatus does away with the objec-
ton railroad men have made to signal
devices before the engineers eyes In
the cab, which they believed would
tend to make him pay less attention to
the line of road stretching before him.
Watching from the locomotive Is abb
solutely necessary for the safety of the
train and would gradually be left un-
performed If attention was distracted
entirely to the little signal apparatus
In the cab.
The apparatus now used In Prussia
on several railroads is as follows: At
fixed distance from the signal post
two parallel iron bars with a small
space between them are mounted along
the track for several yards. There is
attached to the locomotive an arm
which carries bristly broom made of
pliable copper wires. The passage of
this broom between the iron bars pro-
duces contact which Is intense and
free from concussion. An electrical ac-
tion follows upon the mechanism in
the cab, a bell sounds and a white
slide replaces red. The sign remains
plainly visible to the eye until the en-
gfneer presses button. He knows
definitely that a signal is to be ex-
pected and If he cannot clearly make
out the order intended will stop the
train

A southern representative said re-
Gently that the new Office building
would enable him to do twice as much
work as formerly. He had In mind the
writing of letters and the sending of
documents and seeds to constituents.
Many members who were always on
hand at the opening hour now spend
they drift over to the capitol. If any
thing of interest is up for discussion,
they may remain, but usually their
visit to the capitol is not to spend time
on the floor, but to visit the house res
taurant
Giving each representative an office
room has one advantage. 1t makes 1t
reasonably easy to locate the where
abouts of a representative. Hereto
fore whenever there was a call of the
house the sergeant at arms sent his
men scurrying all over the city In
search of the absentees. 1t was neces-
sary for the house officials to know
something about the habits of each rep
resentative, where he was accustomed
to loaf at particular hour, who his
intimate friends were, etc. Now that
every member has an Office 1t is likely
that 1t will be easier to round up the
aosentees. If the missing representa-
tive is not in his room, it is more than
likely his secretary will be able to in
dicate where he can be found. This
applies not only to the house officials,
but to others who are anxious to see
representatives and who heretofore
have found it difficult to know where
to begin their search.

Russia Gave Australian Firm Conces-
sion on Siberian Timber Lands.

Russia Gave Australian Firm Conces-
sion on Siberian Timber Lands.
An Australian corporation recently
received a concession from the Russian
government to take out 30.O0o,O00 feet
of timber a year from a forest in ST.
IBERIA, 900 miles from yladivostok, to
be delivered in Melbourne, Australia,
approximately 5000 miles away and
nearly three times the distance from
New York to San Francisco.
1t Is likely that no numbering oper-
alton Of recent years more strongly IL
Illustrates the pinch in the timber sup
ply in all parts of the world, says a
forest service bulletin. In the news of
the concession, told in an American
lumber journal, is the suggestion of
the difficulty that all countries may
have to encounter in getting the wood
which they need in the future Every
year timber cruisers are going farther
and farther afield and cutting trees
which, in former times of abundance,
they passed because of the inaccessi-
bflity of the forest.
In taking out the Siberian timber
the Melbourne lumbermen will have to
ship the entire years cut In July, Au-
gust, September and October, for dur
ing the remainder of the year there is
no open water at the point of shipment.
What makes this unusual feature of
transporting bulky logs 5000 miles
quite feasible is that such unmanufac-
tured stock is admitted free, while
there is heavy duty psl all manufac-
tured wood brought ind,e Australia, the
duty on lumber, for instance, being
nearly So thousand board feet. At
Melbourne new mill is being erected
to manufacture these logs into dressed
stock, such as flooring. ceiling and 9th
er products, as well as into lumber.
These Siberian operations differ from
the numbering methods in the United
States in that in this country it is pos
sible and customary to have new mills
conveniently near the place of produc-
ton, though, with the continually de-
creasing supply. the larger mills often
find 1t profitable to haul their timber
by trans and railroads many miles
away from their saws. Forest experts
In this country say that the hope of the
United States for steady supply of
timber lies in the application of fores-
try to all timber lands, private and
public, and the careful study of the
economical and better utilization of
product Even SO. q severe shortage

BOB pAvls's TROUBLES.
obscured by Dust of Teehnieality
 Kicked Up by His Attorneys.

The demurrer in the case of M. B. Davis, generally known as Bob Davis, indicted by the Grand Jury on the charge of setting fire to the coun- ty jail at Calexico, March 10, was heard before Judge Cole of the Super for Court Wednesday afternoon. Attor- ney Conkling, for the defendant, ar gued that the indictment was faulty in that it did not set forth the manner in which the jail was injured by being set on fire. The demurrer was over ruled; Davis pleaded not guilty, and his trial was set for May 27. His coun- sel notified the court that an applica tion would be made for a change of venue.
 In the case against Davis wherein the Grand Jury brought in an indict- ment charging him with felonious as sault upon A. E. Eslow, Daviss coun sel demurred, alleging that the indict ment failed to state that "E. A. Eslow" was a "person" or a human being, and therefore Esow might be a horse a hog or a dog, as all such nowadays bear names similar to human beings. Ut is to be noted that the attorneys say only that Eslow might be a hog or a dog, not that he is either or both. It wouldn't be nice to call a man such names, even in demurrer,
 The very profound legal problem in- volved in the demurrer was taken un- der advisement by the court.
