ELECTRIC MULES FOR PANAMA
Railroad to BE Built for Drawing
" Ships From Ocean to Ocean.

The first shipment of steel has been
made from New York for building a
unique electric railway along the
Panama canal for drawing great
ships from ocean to ocean. The
enormous volume of shipping across
the isthmus will be drawn on the
ancient towpath system, so that it
will be unnecessary for steamers to
proceed under their own steam. In
place of the mules, on this curious
towpath, powerful electric locomo-
tives will draw the largest ships
smoothly and swiftly across the con-
tinent. A steamer of, say 10000
tons, which. the canal will readily &C
commodate, is obviously very heavy
burden, and the electric locomoties
will be geared to the tracks by a
middle rail in the form of rack.
The canal commission has advertised
for 2,OoO,O00 pounds Of steel ties,
slots and covers and 100000
pounds of steel channels. This rack
railway will be built by the commits
sion, and will be in working order
in less than two years, in time for
the opening of the canal.

Dan Brouthers, Player Of Old School
and Ono Of Greatest Batsmen In
Annals Of Baseball, Sees
Nothing New.

Dan Brouthers, player of the old
school and one of the greatest bats
men in the annals of baseball, being
asked recently as to how many new
plays had been discovered in the
game in the last twenty years, made
this reply:
Il don't know of any real new ones.
They don't do much that they didn't
do when played ball. There IL a
little difference. Some moves are
made with more frequency, and team
work Is more common among clubs.
There is nothing new about the bunt.
There's a man coaching for the New
York baseball club who, twenty years
ago, could bunt more skillfully than
most of the players on the field to-
day, and as skillfully as the experts,
for all that can see. I mean Arlie
Latham. This squeeze play which
they talk 80 much about I saw hap
pen on the ball field, although tho
batter used to chop at the ball. rath-
or than bunt 1t.
THE delayed steal is not a modern
invention. Old players used to do 1t,
and they used to say that they were
blamed idiots for taking such chances
on the bases. They weren't 80 crit
ical then about picking plays and put
ting fancy names on them. If any
thing happened out of the ordinary
that is, the ordinary run Of luck
they'd say after the game was over,
That was a streak of luck, and the
club was fortunate to get away with
a victory That's what we used to
get. None of your delayed steals and
sacrifice killers and such things.
"The sacrifice hit was not known
then. That is, exactly in the manner
that it is made today, although when
managers saw the trend of the times
that baseball was getting more and
more to be game in which one run
would be a great factor in winning,
they trained their clubs to go after
play. Yet I have known times when
we used to play out In the lake cities
when we sacrificed. Did it deliber-
ately, too. No picayune luck about it.
Simply jumped In and took a chance
on getting out to get another fellow
around. They're all old-every one
of them-and it's only the frequency
Of some Of these so-called plays,
against their scarcity in years gone
by, which induces something that We
didn't know.
"Some folks today claim that there
are better base runners now than
years ago. would like those people
to produce them. Where is there one
better than Ned Williamson? How
about Harry Stovey? What of Buck
Ewing and Mike Kelley and Fogarty
and about forty others that could
name If it were worth while? Better
base stealers? Let me tell you some
thing-when people say anything like
that, you tell them to stop reading
those romances about baseball and 60
somewhere and borrow-for you can't
buy them-a few copies Of the older
editions of the baseball guides, and
then come around and tell US what
they found in them in regard to base
runners"

provides that the state shall bear half

Killed Good Roads Law Of 1895.
This principle was the one upon
which the supreme court declared I'M

1896 under the old constitution. In
Trainings the Elwell bill it was
thou htsthat this and other pitfalls
that stood in the way of the former
measure had been avoided, but later
Investigations would seem to indi-
cate differently, it is asserted by
some. 8 @
If, however, the attorney generals
department. rules that the Elwell law
is constitutional, which is at present
considerably doubted, expenditures
w
may make under it will be limited by
the one-quarter of mill levy on all
taxable property of the state, author

May Restrict Tax Levy.
The commission will be further
limited by this law, it was said yes
terday, in the amount of the levy
which may be expended in each coun-
ty, restricted to maximum of 3 per
cent year from the fund raised by
the levy,sand minimum of half of
1 per cent. Aprovision of the Elwell
bill, however, which permits the pay
ment of the expense incurred in con-
structing the highways in ten annual
installments may relieve the situation
produced by this limitation.
1000 Miles Planned.
almost l 600 miles Of new roads
are now projected for the northern
part of the state by the Northern
Minnesota Development league alone,
while the good roads movement in
the state is not centered in that sec
ton. Though it's plans are extended
to cover number of years, the COM
mission faces the problem of distrib-
uting it's funds not only there but
equally to the benefit of other coun-
ties.
Applications already have been
made for the construction of a road,
$50 miles long, from Duluth through
Bemidji to St. Vincent, and from
Deer River to Northome, while the
leagues plans include other roads
from Duluth to International Falls,
Duluth to the Twin City, and Koochi-
ching to Bemidji, approximately l.
600 miles in all.

risk as to the quality of the material
look Ger the trade mark Of the maker.
No concern that makes pure all wool

it. For instance the Earnsdale Worst
ed CO. produce all pure virgin wool
worsteds of an excellent type. And
they stand right back of every yard
made by placing their Seal of Guar
antee on it. 1t is their guarantee
your protection against adulteration
in wooden fabrics When you ask
your clothier or tailor for a suit or
overcoat made from Earnsdale worst

the seal of the makers guarantee is
on the cloth or suit, The long SER
vice, the way the suit or oVercoat

the style, the hang and the retention

MAINTENANCE OF SIGNS.
The Statute Was Slightly Amended by
the 18th legislature.

1t is not generally known by many
outside of those who are intimately
acquainted with the acts of the last
Legislature that the statute i'm re-
gard to the maintenance of guide
posts by towns and liability for fail
ure in not maintaining them has been
somewhat amended by the public laws
of 1911. A Readheld resident, who
asks what the present law is, informs
a reporter that there are only one or
two signbeards in the part of the town
ia which she resides aud that an auto
mobile came some distance out of its
way to her residence in order that
the occupants might inquire the di-
rection to the next town and upon
inquiry found that they were going
from their destination instead Of to it.
The law passed by the last Legis-
laturc, which is Chapter - of the Pub
lie Laws of 1911, is as follows:
Towns shall erect and maintain at
oil crossings OF highways. and where
one public highway enters another,
substantial guide-posts not less than
eight feet high, and fasten to the up
per end OF each board, on which shall
be plainly printed in black letters on
white ground, the name of the next
town on the route. and of such other
place as the ipal officers may di-
rect with the number Of miles there

exceeding $50. and such fines shall be
recovered by complaint OF Indictment.

courts and trial justices within their
respective counties shall have original
and concurrent jurisdiction with the
superior and supreme judicial courts;
ard on all fines provided for by this
act. and recovered on complaint half
shall go to the prosecutor and half to
the county where the town commit
ting the offense is situated
