Lem b. Parker, author of the play and
a specialist in che contrivance of rail
road effects. The tricks he uses to
run this race of an automobile and an
express train are so simple that they
seem ridiculous-after they're explained
to you. In reality they are as ingen-

The thing that does the real moving

power engine to move the first set and
a ve-horsepower to the second

that nov is the auto. which proceeds
on a cable very slowly across the stage,
the motive power being a stage hand

and a fan watts it realistically back
wards.
Perhaps the most ingenious part of
the entire outfit is the automobile
which from out in front gives every
appearance of being an ordinary motor
car of small size. The heroine n the
man at the wheel are both in the
front leaning far forward in the excite
ment of the race. Both of them are
busy all the time working a pair of
bellows with their feet to blow back
the clouds of sand and dust released
by another crank-turning arrange

their rear, and entirely concealed by
the sides of the car, is a nan turning

HOW THE FAMOUS RACE OF The AUTO And The
EXPRESS TRAIN In "BEDFORDS HOPE IS CONTRIvED
Simple but Highly Ingenious
Stage Mechanism Makes
Thrilling Illusion.

"What shall we do? What shall we
do?" shrieks the heroine of "Bedford's
Hope" ION that train is a man who
is going to ruin poor old Dad. What
shall we do?"
What could she do but beat the
train at it's own game in an automo-
bile? That, at any rate, is what hap
pens, and the way the effect is pro-
duced at the Columbia Theatre makes
the audience gasp.
In the foreground you see the auto

AGAINST INVASION OF

BULLETIN NO. 8.

1.-The other of the laws enacted
bBthe direct descendants of the
"P1lgrim Fathers" mentioned in
Bulletin No. Z, and which, for
lack of space, could not be re-
produced in that bulletin, was
enacted in 1892 in New Hamp-
shire. 1t reads, in substance:
Whereas the production of
malt beverages is conducive to
agriculture in this State, dimin-
2 ishes the consumption of high
grade spirituous liquors and
furtllers the morality and health
OF the people, be it enacted
That whenever in this State any
person or persons hereafter shall
lease, erect or have erected a ny build
ipgs or other structures for the pro-
duction Of malt beverages, and con
tinue to use them for such production.
or shall occupy and use the buildings
~ other structures erected or leased
for the said purpose, these buildings
or structures, together with the ad-
Joining yards and also the stock used
in the production of malt beverages,
shall be free and exempt from all
taxes of any kind whatever imposed
by the authorities of the State. And
as long as such establishments or
buildings are used for said purpose,
their owners or lesseeS shall also be
free and exempt from all poll taxes
AMI be granted exemption from the
poll taxes the workmen or appren-
tices EN- ployed by them, in the
opinion of the selectman of the town
wherein such brewery is located, are
subject to.
Provided, that this law shall have
effect for the term of ten years after
it's enactment, and no longer.
AS is seen, the direct descendants
of the ''Pilgrim Fathers" in two of
the New England States did not only
not stand hostile to the brewing in
dustry, but exbressb ipoited it by assur-
ing it exem bttoa from taxation for all real
and personal property and capital

reasons? In order TO further agriculture ia
