adopted a device, which, as long
as It operates, seems to preclude =
serious accident. A complete block
signal and automatic train-stopping
system has been put in. As an indi-
cation Of what precautions have been
taken, It win be seen that the block
signals occur in the tunnel with much
greater frequency than on the surface
roads. For example, on steam rail
roads the signal sections average about
q half-mile in length; on the Manhat-
tan subway the distance between sig
nails is about 800 feet, nearly seven
signals to the mile. The Hudson tun.
nels more than double this number
and have over IA signals to the mile,
on an average = signal to every S67
foet.
Three different lights are used: A
groan light indicates proceed; a yel-
low light. proceed with caution, and
. red one, stop. And In order that
neither temporary color blindness nor
disregard for signals may carry the
train past the red light, q device foe

The following interview had with
Maj. S. NJ. Yost, one of the oldest Re.
publicans in the city and leader in
that party, was sent out under date OF
August 30th. 1t will be read with in
terest by both Democrats and Repub-
leans:
In an interview today Maj. S. M.
Yost, lifelong Republican, for many
years postmaster here, stated that he
had come to the conclusion that Bryan
would undoubtedly win in the Presi-
Dental election next November. He
said: "With d. b. Hill and Alton b.
Parker both stumping for the common
er, the Democratic nominee should
carry New York"
Maj. Yost thinks that sentiment is
growing daily in Bryan's favor, and
that he will win unless the political
winds change from the present course
Maj. Yost has been a staunch Repub-
lican all his life, but does not admire
Taft and the manner in which he was
nominated. He says he is yet unde-
cided as to which candidate will get
his personal vote, although he fully ex-
poets to determine the question before
are things about Bryan he does not aG-
mire, but that he is undeniably clean
and sincere man, an able statesman and
magnetic speaker.
Maj. Yost came here in 1S47, and has
long been identified with the city's in
terests. He is well informed on ma
tional politics and seldom gives out
opinions without research and a thor
ough study of conditions. AS to the
gubernatorial fight in Virginia, Mr..
Yost firmly believes that Mr.. Stuart
will get the nomination.

"Human Hearts. -"

Successful in its tenth season can be
said of few plays, but it can truthfully
be said of "Human Hearts. A drama
which provides healthful recreation for
the public and which seems to instruct
while appearing in form OF amusement,
is boon to any community. 80 many
questionable forms of amusement are
thrust upon the public, the young and
old alike find much in this beautiful
living story to, think over and enjoy
long afterward. Rich in incident, in
it's variety of characters, in stage set
tings, it is one of the few attractions OF
great merit on the road. The specta-
tor is carried into the delightful atmos-
phere of life in the hills of Arkansas.
The trouble which falls upon the SIM
pie folk of the Logan farm, reminds
one of the line-'sThe trail of the SER
pent." The beautiful and touching
denoument, however, beard its lesson.

true notes in this play and the we'll
chosen cast blend their harmonies with
fine effect. The advance sale opening

Hicks September Forecast

A regular storm period is central on
the 9th, extending from 4th and Sth.
Storms that may have been sighted on
the gulf regions prior to this period will
gain new life and energy during the
4th to Sth, causing severe visitations
along the south coasts and inland to-
ward and over the great lakes. Grow
ing storm conditions will be indicated
on the 4th to 9Th in western and SOUTH
ern extremes. During the 9th to Sth
and possibly over the 9th and 10th these
conditions will bring decided Septem-
Der storms to most parts of the cOun-
try.
A reactiOnary storm period is central
on the 10th, 18th and 18th, having full
moon on the 10th. The Sth to 18th is
at the annual crisis of magnetic an
tagenism between the earth and sun.
Within period of about five days with
the 10th the central day, equinoctiat
storms will be natural. Behind these
storms, starting in the far Northwest
about the 18th, look for rapid changes
to high barometer and much cooler
weather, which change will spread
eastward and southwark during the
18th to 18th.
A regular storm period covers the
18th to 10Th, with moon at last quarter
on the 18th. Crisis of this period will
fall on the 18th to 18th. The center of
earth's equinox falls on the 22nd, but
violent storms are no more liable to
fall on or about that date than any
other period for weeks before and after.
A reactionary storm period runs from
the 22nd to 18th and will not reach its
elimination before the new moon on
the 18th. With the moon on the equa-
tor on the Goth severe electrical storms
may bridge the interval and cause d
continuance of storm conditions into
the months last period. The 18th is
the center of another seismic period OF
about five days.
A regular storm period begins on the
9th and extends to October 2d, being
central on the 18th. AS the month
goes out low barometer and genera
storm conditions will be in transit from
west to east. By the 10Th and 30tf
wide areas of cloudiness and rain viii
develop bringing in general, spell o
autumnal rain, wind and disagreeabl'
weather.
