Scheme Never Before Dreamed Of
Scarcely Any stops-proFfer De-

anna chairmanshp.
Washington, April 6.-Rapid transit,
as it perhaps had never been dreamed
of by any other man, has, been offered
to the postoffice department by an
Ellington, ILL.,, inventor. This inventor
has scheme to run railroad train
at the rate of eighty miles an hour for
500 miles without stopping, which he
claims would unload passengers, mail
and bagga ge meanwhile. His device
would whirl the most delicate passen-
ger out of the car and into the station
without lessenina. the speed of the train
or iniuring the Passenger. 1t would do
the same with tie maifs, he said
"On the grounds that congress gave
the postoffice department no authority
to buy railroad equipment the inven-
tion has been declined, but the inventor
has written President Taft offering the
free use of the scheme, and suggesting
that his appointment as chairman OF
the Panama canal commission would be
considered an adequate return, for a
little while anyway.

republicans In the incoming city
council there will thirty-two republic
cans and thirty-eight democrats.
The republicans offset these heavy
gains of democracy by electing pair
Of aldermen in what heretofore has
been democratic territory Two DEM
oerats succeed democrats and two re-
publicans succeed republicans. Seven
teen new men were chosen to the coun-
Gil and eighteen sitting aldermen were
reelected.
Th facts which stand out as parti-
cularly important in the review Of the
municipal election are these:
Alderman William r. Dever was re-
elected in the Seventeenth ward and
Stanley Kunz's game was badly beaten.
This victory for honest government was
seriously Offset by the sharp defeat Of
Alderman Nicholas Finn in the Twen-
tieth ward by the republican machine
under Homer X. Galpin.
Alderman Charles NJ. Thomson was
reelected in the Twenty-ffth in spite
Of the stone wall opposition Of the
Pease Lake View organization.
Alderman Bernard r. Clettenberg
was reelected in the Twenty second,
as were the republican candidates in
the Twenty-first and Twenty-third
wards, where the issue Of the present
city administration had been raised.
Chauncey Dewey succeeded in elect
ing his candidate, Wilson Shufelt, in
the Second after blistering battle
which will long leave it's mark on the
ward.
Alderman mickey" Conlon was de-
a. s,, ali ~
stronghold, the Eighteenth. by William
J. Healy.
Lerimer's candidate, Jonathan Rux
ton, was beaten badly in Lorimers
ward, the IThirty-fourth. while Nc
Even was whipped in the Twenty
seventh by the forced retirement from
the council Of Alderman Clancy.
The town OF Lake wards, excepting
the Thirty-second, went in a body into
the democratic ranks, the Twenty
first going democratic by a thousand
each.
The total vote cast over the city was
2S5,S84, about 81 per cent of the total
registration of the city and In itself
an unprecedentedly heavy percentage
of the vote to be cast at an OF year
election. -
The county managers within the
democratic organization Immediately
hailed the democratic gains as signs
Of the times, and It is certain that the
democratic chieftains will begin fig
uring today upon a county ticket which
they will expect to elect next Novem-
Der as result Of the aldermanic re-
suits.
The republican leaders did not feel
down-hearted, most Of them refusing to
admit that the apparent democratic
victory was politically significant. It
is the republican idea that the issues
In each case were intensely local and
that the election is no barometer Of
political sentiment in Chicago.

HOW TO OPERATE ROAD DRAG
There Are Few Periods Du-s=5 Year
When Use of Implement viii
Not Prove Beneficial.

The surface of the average country
road should be covered in one round
with the drag. One horse should be
driven on the inside of the wheel
track and the other on the outside,
the drag being set, by means of the
chain, so that 1t is running at an
angle of about IS degrees with the
wheel track, and working toward the
center of the road In the spring
when the roads are more likely to be
ratty and soft it is generally better to
go over the road twice or more.
The drag shouid be floored with
boards which are separated by open
spaces of sufficient width so that the
dirt which falls over will rattle
through.
On roads with heavy traffic the drag
should be used much oftener and with
more care than on roads with light
traffic.
The distance from the drag at
which the team is hitched affects the
cutting. A long hitch permits the
blade to cut deeper than short hitch.
likewise heavy doubletree will cause
the cutting edge to settle deeper than
a light one.
There are very few periods of the
year when the use of the drag does
not benefit the road, but it does the

best work when the soil is moist and
yet not too sticky. This is frequently
within half-day's time after a rain
When the earth Is in this state it
works the best, and the effects of
working 1t are fully as beneficial as
at any other time.
So much has been written and said
pertaining to the great benefits from
the use OF the road drag that many
people beginning the use of 1t become
discouraged before they are well start
ed They should not feel thus as it
often takes a whole season for the
road to become properly puddled and
baked to withstand the rains and
traffic. After road has been worked
with drag only a short time it Is not
well to expect it to stand up to heavy
traffic during continued damp spell
without being affected. However, 1t
will take far heavier traffic than most
earth roads receive to more than scuff
up the surface.
1t is not we'll to consider the bene-
fits from a good road as solely con-
fined to heavy traffic, for there is no
doubt but that the time saved to light
vehicles and the greater pleasure de-
rived from their use over good roads
far surpasses the economy in heavy
hauling.

DOING AWAY WITH STAINS
Best TO Leave II TO Pro-
fessionaIs.

While there Ire simple home RENE
dies for stains that are apt to be sue
cessful 1t is the wisest and most eco
nomical plan In the end to take the
soiled garment at once to a profess
sional. In some cases the experiment.
Ing at home results in the ruin of the
entire garment. This is especially
true In regard to colored fabrics.
White goods may be safely treated
at home, but in the case OF colored
materials one has not only to consid.
er the nature of the stain. but also
the color Of the goods. The stain may
be obliterated by certain applications,
but frequently the color comes away
also or changes to another tone. The
original color may be restored by an
application of q solution Of ore part
OF ammonia In twenty parts Of water.
Should this fail try ether or chloro-
form, keeping away from the fire
during the process. II the stain re-
fuses to respond there Is nothing to
do but to consult a professional. but

had the fresh stain been brought to
him.

provements over previous years.
