Well Know Erie Man Goes to WASH

A new device is being tested on
the various railways OF the coun-
try which has been perfected with
a view to preventing wrecks on
the road. The invention Is very
simple and yet one which may
prove at last the remedy for the
wrecking habit, which is assuming
great proportions.
A third rail must be added TO the
tracking which must either be To-
'.ated at the side of the tracks or
may be placed In the center. with
the engine carrying with II small
generator constant current is
I'm force with the tracks and when
once they are connected the abr
brakes acts automatically, red
light appears In the cab and the
erlsine Is automatically stopped.
1t must be explainer that the
current Is only made with the third
track, when two engines enter the
same section of tracking. Then the
current becomes active and the
stoppage takes place. A light cap
ocnne1ts the tender of the engine
with the rail and by this means
current is formed causing the
trains on the same soction of track
ing to stop, preventing the terrible
catastrophes of the road owing to
any mistakes OF telegraph operators.
As the device is being used ON
many of the great roads OF the
country as an experiment 1t Is held
probable that soon the danger OF
wrecks will be thing of the past

Don't Overlook 1t.

One mission of the home newspaper
is to print the news. Another, and
next in important duty, is to write con-
tinuously about the resources of its
section. If it does this, then with the
aid of the people who should take an
interest and pride in extending its
circulation, it can and will accomplish
a world of good. 1t 10 much more eff
fective as a resource advertisement
than any other class of matter-even
than that of the especially prepared
class-for it gives the reader the gen.
eral information he seeks. 1t is an in
PRODUCTION. a description. a conversa-
tion-all in one. To those who have
special persons whom they wish to in
terest and make acquainted with their
locality, there is no other way half so
effective as to send them six months
subscription to home paper, If they
happen to have a live one. We say
this from observation of results.
