A SAFETY EXPOSITION.
Chamber of Horrors-Niine Gallery
 100 Feet Above Ground.

| Gosh, if that mans going to light up some gasolene, he'd better build an iron cage, or else I'll have to get out" remarked an exhibitor at the exposition of safety devices, as he saw a demonstration of pouring lighted gasolene from one container into another lighted receptacle, But the safety device worked and the speaker soon felt himself as safe there as in his own home This in- cident took place at the New York museum of safety devices, which is holding an exposition of safety ap- pliances and processes to protect the I life and limbs of the workers and the general public.
 On entering the exposition the vis- itor sees, in front of him miniature mountain, which is really the model of mine gallery, to show scientifical- ly how the construction of steel in- stead of wood is being used to make the galleries of mines safe and strong. for it Is already coming to pass that steel is becoming cheaper than wood Then, too, in the case of fire there is no fear that the steel will burn. The steel beams, the log ging and the track are all of natural size and this mine gallery, installed above the ground by the Carnegie Steel Go, can be studied in all its de- tail, without a trip underground in the midst of perilous descents and dangerous passages from below the surface of the earth. In close prox- unity safety lamps, respirators, hell nets, detectors of dangerous gases indicate the grave perils that necessi- tate methods and processes of such precision for overcoming them.
 While the exposition does not con tain flying machines or seven-leagued boots, there is one device which we'll might figure in the Arabian Nights brought down to date. The inven- tor of this eighth wonder, in simple and convincing words, tells you how the dispatcher in the seclusion of his own office, with the train sheet in front of him, indicating the where abouts of every train on the line, can at will at any moment talk with the engineer in his cab at any point on the line, warning him of the peril in the block just ahead of him. If this warning to MT Engineer should not be needed, the dispatcher, by the simple turn of lever, can shut off the power in the locomotive so that it will come to full stop. The pos abilities of this safety system are simply incalculable.
 That concerns my government said the consular representative of one of the great European powers, as he saw the model of quadrant dayit whereby two men lower a lifeboat filled with people from the deck to the water inside of one minute. Con- tinuing, he came to safety lamp. that touches my own pocket. I must have one of those larps for my villa"

 It happened at the CaAvaire at Fon- tainebleau, whither they had made a days and nights excursion under the escort of Marie Zerkovitch and stu dent friend of hers from the Quarter Latin. These two they had left behind slipping beer at restaurant facing the chateau. On the eminence which com mands the white little town dropped amid the old forest, over against the red roofs of the palace wing in rich ness with the turning leaves, in sight of a view in its own kind unsurpassed, in its own charm unequaled, Sophy broke the brutal truth which was to end the infatuation of the head of house old as St. Louis.
 'Tts bad to pronounce, is itY' asked Casimir, smiling and touching her hand. "Ah, well, good or bad, l couldn't pronounce it, so to me it is nothing"
 They'd all say it was terrible-a mesailli1nce."

 Woodworking machines with the saws and knives revolving thousands |of times minute, seek in vain to mangle the hands and fingers of the workmen, while cunningly devised guards permit the workmens hands to push the work along or to glide harmlessly over the knives or cutf ters; at the same time there is no interference with the speed or lint itation of the output.

Simple and cheap, hence the American industrialist can afford to use 1t.
 Safety elevators, emergency brakes, rail joints. automatic gate crossings and signals, life bouys and collapsible life boats, safety matches, life gune, safety clothes lines, safeguarding the milk and food supply of New York city are among some of the other ey- hibits in this exposition for saving life and limb

cd of her long, sweed indecision was threatened with forced conclusion.
 Marie Zerkovitch was preoccupied against both her friends joy and her friends perplexity, Great affairs touched her at home. There would be war, she said, certainly war. Today the senate went to St. Cloud to see the emperor. Zerkovitch had started thither already on the track of news. The news in the near future would cer- tainly be war, and Zerkovitch would follow the armies, still on the track of news. He went before. in the war of sixty-six," she said, her lips trem- bling. and he all but died of fever. That kills the correspondents just as much as the soldiers. An, it is so dan gerous, Sophie-and so terrible to be left behind alone. I don't know what shall do. My husband wants me to go home. He doesn't believe the French will win, and he fears trouble for those who stay here" She looked at last at Sophy's clouded face. "Ah, and your Casimir-he will be at the frontr'
 "Yes. Casimir will be at the front" said Sophy. a ring of excitement hard ly suppressed in her voice.
 ''If he should be killed" murmured Marie, throwing her arms out in ges- ture of lamentation.
 You bird of i'll omen, He'll come back covered with glory"
 The two spent quiet day together, Sophy helping Marie in her homely tasks. Zerkovitch's campaigning kit was overhauled-none knew how soon orders for an advance might come his buttons put on. his thick stockings darned. The hours slipped away in work and talk. At o'clock they went out and dined at small restaurant hard by. Things seemed very quiet there. The fat waiter told them, with shrug: we shan't have much noise here tonight The lads will be over there" He pointed across the river. They'll be over there most of the night, on the crowded boulevards. Be- cause it's war, madame. Oh. yes. it's war;" The two young women slipped their coffee in silence. AS lad I saw 1880. I was out in the streets in 1851. What shall I see next?" he ask ed them as he swept his napkin over the marble table top. If he stayed at his post he saw many strange things. Unnatural fires lit his skies, and be- fore his doors brother shed brothers blood.

 th ~ Ns oi Savres had his lodging.
 'eo's The stream of traffic set with her. She needed It not. The streets were full of excited groups, but there was no great tumuit yet. Men were eagerly reading the latest edi- tions of the papers. Sophy pushed on till she reached Casimir's house. She was known there. Her coming caused surprise to the concierge. 1t was not the proper thing, but he made no diff ficulty. He showed her to Casimir's sitting room, but of Casimir he could give no information save that he, pre- sumed he would return to sleep.
 T must wait--I must see him." she said, and, as the man left her, she went to the window, flung it wide open and stood there, looking down into the great street.
 The lights blazed noE. Every seat at every cafe was full. The newspa- pers did great trade. A wave of in- finite talk. infinite chaff. infinite laugh ter rose to her ears. A loud voiced fel- low was selling pictures of the king of Prussia, as he looks now, and as he will look! The second sheet never failed of great success. Bands of lads came by with flags and warlike shouts. Some cheered them, more laughed and chaffed. One broad faced old man she distinguished in the cafe opposite. He looked glum and sulky and kept arguing to his neighbor. wag- ging fat forefnger at him repeatedly. The neighbor shrugged bored shoul- ders. After all. he had not made the war-it was the emperor and those ge tlemen at St. Cloud. As she watche the stir grew greater. the bands of marching students more frequent and noisy. "A Berlin" they cried now, amid the same mixture of applause and tolerant amusement A party of girls paraded down tine middle of the street. singing "J'aime les militaires" The applause grew to thunder as they went by. and the laughter broke into one great crackle when the heroines had paS ..,..
