The Buffalo fire department is expert
menting with motorcycles for getting first
aid to people whose houses are on fire.
Each motorcycle carries two chemical
fire extinguishers, and the results of the
experiment so far have given rise to the
prediction that before long every city
will maintain a motorcycle fire brigade.

Berliners are greatly alarmed at the
enormous consumption of ice-water by
travelling Americans. To convince them
of the danger of their habit, propagan-
dist cards are placed on the tables of res
taurants where Americans congregate.
These cards contain on one side medical
opinions warning the public against ice
wafer and soft drinks" and on the
other side scientific attestations of the
healthfulness of the juice of the grape.

Evidence revealed at the docking of
the steel steamer Crescent City, which
was one of the principals in the recent
smashing of the Canadian lock gate ut
the Sault, is highly complimentary to
modern ship construction as well as cor
roborative of the tremendous CONFUSION
that followed the sudden release of the
water from the lock. The Crescent
City's bottom plates will have to be gen
orally replaced, and a large number of
her frames will have to be reconstructed

A German steamship which has here
tofore operated between German ports
and Montevideo and Valparaiso, will
henceforward continue the voyage from
the latter port to San Francisco and
afford traffic connections between that
pert and South American shipping CEN
ters 1t is said that this will be of great
benefit to the tanners of the Pacific
coast, who receive large quantities of
quebracho extract from South Ameri-
ca, upon which the freight rate has been
unduly high because of the lack of ship
ping facilities. Foreign invasions of
American shipping territory ought to be
welcomed as reminders of opportunity
for American shipping investors; and if
what the foreigners are now about to
do cannot proftably be done by
American carriers, the time may come
through development of traffic when
there will be room for ships which car
ry the American flag.

The steamer Robert Fulton which
has just taken her place on day run
on the Hudson river, is a magnificent
craft in which progress in naval archi-
lecture is revealed from keel to truck.
She has four decks, and can accommo-
date large number of passengers. A
conspicuous feature is the fre-prooing
which makes it almost impossible for
accidental flames to menace the ship.
Steel asbestos and other noncombusti-
BILE materials form the upper works of
the steel hull, even to the sides and
trimming of the cabins. This is an in
noyation that will be appreciated by
travellers quite as much as the steel
coaches which have been adopted by
some railroads.

The forest, fish and game department
of the state of New York has succeeded
in Matching 100000 Holsters in the
floating boxes at Montauk point, and it
is estimated that the Matching of the
season will aggregate 100000. This
large production indicates that the coast
states can by concerted action prevent
the extinction of the lobster, which has
been threatened by the constant fishing
TO meet steadily increasing demand.
The lobster is valuable article of food,
and it would be criminal on the part of
the Atlantic coast states to permit its
practical extinction, so far as trade is
concerned.

ready been appointed in S. K. Maru-

with the labor troubles on the planta-
tions and was granted a leave of alb
sence from his duties as Interpreter.
