THE GYRoScoPE CAR.

Some months ago Louis Brennan ex-
hibited in England a model gyroscope
car operated on a single rail which
performed wonders of equilibrium and
which promised to revolutionize trans
portation if it We're possible to expand
the carrying unit from the model size
to large proportions. Since then but
little has been heard of the gyroscope
car. but evidently the inventor has
been improving his time in the devel-
opment of his Device for now comes
word Of the trial of a forty-foot pas
senger car with two score of occu-
pants, carried at high speed along
single rail track and around a circular
track with curve of one-eighth of
a mile circle. The cables report a
perfect success, the car being operat-
ed without hitch or mishap Of any
~kind, maintaining a perfect balance
even when the passengers of one ac-
cord moved to one side or the other.
This demonstration is regarded as es-
tablishing the practicability of the one
rail car.
In the new Brennan model, which is
ten feet wide and thirteen feet in
height, and weighs twenty two tons
when empty. the power is supplied by
a gasoline engine, which not only turns
the guiding wheels but keeps the two
horoscopes in operation. These gyro-
scopes are three feet and a half in
diameter and together weigh one and
q half tons. They spin at the rate of
5000 revolutions minute. Improved
pneumatic devices assure the perfect
operation of the horoscopes and re-
duce the incidental friction to negli-
gible minimum. 1t is believed that
when once sent to the maximum Of
rotation these wheels would spin so
long after the cutting off of power that
there would be no possibility of an &C.
cident through the arrangement of the
machinery. For the car will remain
upright on the single rail as long as
the horoscopes are in motion
The advantage of the gyroscope
monorail system as far as it has been
developed in theory are the higher rate
of speed that is possible with safety
than on the double rail basis and the
greater cheapness of construction. The
higher safe speed-estimated at fully
100 miles an hour-is possible with the
monorail by reason of the fact that
there is no dangerous vibration from
side to side to cause derailments. The
gyroscope insures steadiness in all
conceivable circumstances. On the
construction side a great gain is ex-
- pected in the elimination of expensive
grading work. tunne'ing and other
means of avoiding obstacles now nee

News of the DdY
In National Capital

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-The unu
sual proceeding of an arraignment for
sentence at the bar of the United
States supreme court will be witness
ed today. The culprits who will ap-
pear before the black-robed and au
gust judges to listen to their doom are
Joseph w. Shipp, of Chattanooga,
Tenn, and five co-defendants, who are
charged with contempt of the mighty
tribunal.
The case grew out of the lynching
by a mob at Chattanooga, Tenn, of
the negro Ed Johnson, just after the
supreme court of the United States
in March, 1906, had decided to review
the proceedings by which the Tonnes
see courts had convicted the negro of
criminal assault and sentenced him to
be hanged.
The attorney general instituted
proceedings against Shipp, who was
the sheriff, and the jailer and twenty
five others supposed to have been i'm
plicated in the lynching, charging
them with contempt OF the supreme
court Many of the accused were ex-
onerated and in the end only six were
found guilty. These were Sheriff
ShiuD dis DEPUTY jeremiah Gibson,
VISA was the jailer; Luther Williams,
Nick Nolan, Henry Padgett, and Will
lam Mayes, residents of Chattanooga.
All the defendants entered motions
for rehearing, which the court
through Chief Justice Fuller, denied.
It lies in the discretion of the court
to fine or to imprison the men or to
inf1ict both penalties, and no intlma-

The Foolish Railroads.

Glasgow--twenty- miles-was 81 80.
This stage carried the mail. and it had

dy horses could not pull the stage a
double yoke Of oxen took their places.
1t was slow travelling. but they got
through. The steamboat fare from
Glasgow to st. Louis in the early fif-
ties was 81. That included stateroom
and meals, and If the boat was held
up a week or two on Il sand bar the
accommodations went on without eX-
ira charge. The steamboat owners
never believed the railroads could sue
cessfully compete with them. The way
they looked at it people wouldn't be
willing to travel 100 or 200 miles tied
down to one seat in Il small car when
they might be enjoying the freedom Of
big and handsomely furnished boat.

every day and then disappears up the
North river. 1t is triangular flag
with a flaming red background, from
which stands out in bold relief great
cyclopean eye. Inside the pilothouse
is a man in blue coat and brass but
tons, who views the water front and
passing craft through long telescope.
This Is the supervisor of the harbor.
His duties are to see that the regula-
lions are observed in the East river,
the upper bay and the Hudson river
that the channels are kept free Of OBJ
structions and that the city's docks
and ferries are being looked after as
they should be. AS soon as he steps on

raised. 1t signifies to all nautical folk:
