ton. It seemed to them that some giant hand had seized the equipment while in mid-career and held it with case.
 Experiments with a wireless train control system have been conducted by the Canadian Pacific Railroad company since May last, and this recent dem onstration was the continuation of a long series of successful tests. This automatic train control system is the invention of a Toronto man, Frank w, Prentice. Thirteen years ago there was a head-on collision between a stock train and a passenger train on the line in which a friend of Prentice was in volved. The latter worried about it a good deal and that night had d dream of placing a wireless generator on the van tO prevent accidents. Awakening with the idea still in his mind, he commenced work on it and has been at it ever since.
 The Baltimore & ohio Railroad com pany paid $4O,0OO for his experiments. but they failed because Prentice was using the wrong system. A few years later in Cincinnati. while passing a soda water fountain. he noticed a little rubber ball kept bounding in the air by the force of the water. This little incl dent supplied him with the missing idea and the late demonstration was the result.-Los Angeles Times.

RUSSIAN GENIUS.

Chicago Inter Ocean In Germany, France, England, all things were. of course. possible But Russia was so different. such a curious compound of civilization and savagery, that the proper conditions were plainly lacking.
 But it now looks as if that peculiar Russian atmosphere-a result of the strange survival of certain primitive energy and individuality and restive- ness and even savagery under the sur face of culture-was. after all. the con ditiOn most favorable for the produc- ton of artists who impress one at once with their national flavor and artistic uniqueness.
 In fact. it may safely be said that the significance of the term Russian is now so changed in this country. as far as literature. music or the drama is concerned that it has come to have a real advertising value.

CHRISTMAS WEEK

English Admiralty Will Not Spare
 Sailors to Accompany Aviators

London, Dec. 27.-Because it would interfere with the Christmas holidays of the men, the admiralty has refused Baron de Forests request to have tor pedo boats accompany the aviators in cross channel flights for his prize
 Only five days more for the com petition remain. and two competitors are still in the field, Robert Lorraine, an actor. and Captain F. w. Cody. It is likely, however. that young Sophwit. who in a flight from Snoopy crossed the channel and covered more than 170 miles. landing in Belgium. will prove the winner. It is not unlikely that Whites withdrawal from the contest was in part due to the refusal of the admiralty ito lend it's aid to the ayiators.
 There is still no news of Cecil Grace. who was lost last week in a return flight across the channel from Calais.
