TABLoIDs FOR THE AUTO.
Medicine Cases Prepared for the Con-

Medicine Cases Prepared for the Con-
venience of the Motorst.
1t is for the woman who motors that
most time and thought have been ex-
pended this season in getting up con-
venience as well as luxuries. It seems
as if there was scarcely thing lack
ing in the equipment of the up-to-date
auto which can contribute to the COM
fort of the motorist.
One of the new outfits for touring
is medicine case in which many
common remedies are put up in tab
loid form and which altogether takes
up no more space than the smallest
makeup box.
In the way of drugs there are qui-
nine, bismuth, borax and other rene
dies, not to mention first aid outnt
consisting of bandages, boric lint, cot.
ton wool and plasters; pins, scissors
and sponge, oil for burns, castor oil,
etc.
More than this, there is, photo
graphic outfit in tabloid form, with
all the necessary chemicals for de-
yeloping, toning and fixing photo
graphs.

roe-bucl1, man whose dining room
walls. are covered with the trophies of
his hunts, it is natural that he should
lmmortalize his passion through a
work of art. Herr Schott has done it,
out of pure love of the theme, not as
the result Of an order received, and
has succeeded, as always, wonderfully
we'll.
AS luck would have it, he found the
ideal model and soon created one of
his prettiests statues -'Diana, the God
dess of the Hunt" Another is his
Boar Group" which is as realistic
as can be. Only a hunter could have
modelled it.
All these works of art have made
Herr Schott's name known every

one work, the work that has made the
man famous throughout the world,
and even where art as such is an un-

MONSTER LOCOMOTIVE ON ERIE.
The "GoIiah" Is Easily the Largest ir
the World.

All the wheat raised in this vicinity,
if every acre in 126 square miles was
rich in grain, could be hauled away by
one engine of the Erie road which has
just arrived from the American Loco
motive shops at Schenectady, says a
Susquehanna (Pa.) correspondent.
This is "Goliah," the biggest loco
motive in the world. 1t has just been
built and delivered to the Erie It
can pull train load Of wheat two
miles long at a speed of eight miles
an hour
The top of the cab of this locomo-
tive is just 21s times higher than the
engineer standing on the ground. In
other words, it is IL feet from the
ground to the cab roof.
The boiler is nearly 35 feet in
length, twice the length Of those on
ordinary locomotives. 1t rests on two
sets of eight wheels each. There are
two sets of cylinders. One high pres.
sure set drives the rear wheels, and
is entirely separate from the low
pressure set in front. When both
are used at once the engine becomes
a compound and thSs low pressure
cylinders operate on the exhaust steam
of the rear ones.
The makers of this monster locomo.
tive solved many important problems
| in it's construction. One was to make
an engine Of such length turn the
curves without tearing up the track or
becoming derailed. This was solved
by placing the front end of the boil.

ward wheel base
In spite of the fact that the en-.
gine weighs 2S61a tons and must drive
with fearful force to pull a load of TO-.
600 tons, the shock to the rails and
roadbed at the point Of impact is said
to be less than with most engines. The
reason for this is that the weight and
driving force are distributed over 1G
drive wheels.

BROUGHT CARLOAD OF CATS.
Felines Made Music from Pacific
Coast to New York.

"While we were in the yards at Chi
cago one fall freight train pulled in,'
said the old engineer. "We heard most
extraordinary noises coming from one
of the cars. It sounded as if Bedlam
was let loose. Upon inquiry we were
told that it was a carload of cats
shipped from the Pacific coast and
consigned to a dealer in skins in New
York. The felines were to be
slaughtered on reaching their destina.
ton. Concerts had been given, much
to the annoyance of the train crew, all
along the route and had attracted uni.
versal attention. One would have sup.
posed it a good deal easier and quiet.
er to have shipped the skins rather
than the live cats.

ant travelling companions was told me
by railroad inspector, who had just
returned from a trip abroad.
"He was travelling on a night ex.
press from Vienna to Berlin, when the
passengers were aroused from their
sleep by the shrieks of a woman, who
insisted she was being stabbed with
sharp instruments in several places.
She would not submit to an examina-
tion, and the guard was at his wits
end, because he could not quiet her. A
stout man, some distance away, added
to the clamor by saying he was be.
ing cruelty pricked.
.tAt that moment the train drew up
at station, and the man and woman
were taken out. The man was
searched and six colossal leeches were
found on his thigh. The poor woman
tainted from horror and weakness as
four of these creatures were removed
from her.

brought an insuffciently covered jar
of lceches into the carriage, and they
had escaped. There was no more
