Big Cut in Time.
The project for opening up new rail-
way and steamboat route from England
to Canada, via Dublin and Blacksod bay
was first put forward seventy-five years
ago, when a company was proposed with
a capital Of $15.OOO.OOO. and prospectus
issued. The duration of the sea voyage
from Blacksod bay to Canada was then
estimated at seven days, whereas under
modern scheme for making Blacksod bay
a transatlantic port the full journey from
London to Halifax would be performed
in four days.
The project provides for the construc-
ton of deep-water pier and other har-
,bor works at Blacksod bay, and for the
construction of a line of railway about
eighty-three miles long from Blacksod
to Collooney, which would place the
port in direct rail communication with the
Irish railway system, and give communi-
cation with London via Larne or Dub
lin The sea route from bldckSOQ Ody
to Halifax is 2, 100 miles. The promoters
of the Blacksod bay scheme intended, in
the event Of subsidy of $1.5O0.OOO being
granted, to raise capital of So, 1000, 900.
Advantages Of Scheme.
The best argument in favor of these
Irish port schemes would appear to be
their advantage on national grounds, the
case for which was excellently put by
Admiral Sir Cyprian Bridge at the recent
imperial conference. He then pointed
out that the route to Blacksod bay from
the principal areas which furnish Great
Britain's food supplies has the great
strategic advantage of being more remote
from a probable enemy's base of opera
tons than other routes, while its dis
lance from Ensland's own naval bases
offers no disadvantage. It is In great
measure protected by its position alone,
and the naval forces necessary to defend
it and keep 1t open in war time might
therefore be smaller than the force re-
quired of any other line of communica-
ton passing to the United Kingdom. The
promoters Of the Galway route also lay
stress upon the imperial aspect of the
question. and upon the advantages of &C.
celebrating the mail services between
Great Britain and America. The imper al
arguments seem sound enough, but the
commercial case Is by no means con-
vincing.

DUBLIN, September 9. 1911
Following the visit Of Sir Edward Nor
ris. the Newfoundland premier. to Gal
way, and his promise, which is under
stood to have been followed by that of
Canada, of a substantial subsidy to the
scheme for making Galway transatlan-
tic port. the project has attracted fresh
attention. For many years past the
claims of different Irish ports-Biacksod
Bay, Galway and Killery-to be created
termini of ocean transport services have
been advocated, but the difficulties from
the financial, the commercial and the
technical standpoints have hitherto
proved insurmountable.
These difficulties remain. and a careful
consideration of the whole question sug-
gests that unless imperial interests are
deemed to be at stake in the matter, the
case of the Irish ports named being made
the main ports for British transatlantic
traffic has not been fully proved.
Tried Once and Failed.
It is generally forgotten that many
years ago steamboat communication was
opened between Galway and America, but
the service for various reasons was a
failure. The main features of the Gal
way scheme from the commercial stand
point are that there is good roadstead.
that the existing line Of railway between
Galway and Dublin is the shortest and
most direct, and that the route would
shorten the ocean journey to Hallfax to
three and one-half days, or II Trepassy
in Newfoundland were selected as the
port on the other side. to two and three
fourths days. at present steamship speeds.
The actual economy in distance. as COM
pared with the voyage from Liverpool to
New York, is 965 miles to Halifax and
l. $50 miles to Newfoundland
The Killery bay scheme may be con-
sidered in connection with the Galway
project. 1t was proposed that mails
should be landed at Kllery, which should
be connected with Galway by line OF
railway sixteen miles in length. and that
the sea route should be between killery
and Notre Dame bay. otherwise known

Foreign Correspondence OF The Star.

BERLIN. September 9, 1911.
An appalling tragedy, which must be
almost without a parallel in the history
of crime has occurred in the Hessian
village of Rendel Wilhelm Gunderloch. a
Young peasant of dissolute habits, after
souandering the sum of $4,000, which
had been boarded up by his father, sold
his farm about a year and half ago for
S115OO. and, abandoning his wife and
children. made of to London with the
money. Before leaving he threatened to
return some day and murder every one
of his relations because they had found
fault with him. Some time before that he
had already shot his brother dead, but
had been acquitted on the ground that he
had acted in self-defense
On his departure his wife went to live
In the house Of her parents. whose name
was Eberhard. They had also with them
another daughter and her husband, Wis
senbach by name.
Shot Father-in-Law First.
Shortly before O'Clock in the morning
Gunder och arrived at Rendel In motor
car, which he left outside the village SO
as to avoid attracting attention. and
stealthily made his way into the court
yard of his father-in-law's farm, where
he hid himself. Principally at o'clock.
according to his wont. old Eberhard en-

body and fell dead on the stars. where

to be successfully used by burglars
for opening safes. The new material

A safe door section had been built
up Of two sheets Of half inch steel.
with a layer Of this resisting material
between. A drill was first employed,
but while it easily bit its way through
the outer case of steel 1t failed to
make any impression on the inner fill
ing, and when the drill was with
drawn after FIVE minutes application
oil the edge had gone from 1t. In fact.
it had been ground perfectly smooth.
Next the ox~y-acetylenc blowpipe was
brought into play, the cone Of intense
light giving of a heat Of $500 F. and
exerting a pressure Of fifty pounds to
the inch. Almost directly the steel
covering the region of the drill hole
became incandescent. Then came a
shower Of white hot particles, and the
metal began to bubble over like q
miniature crater. but as soon as the
outer steel had been burned away and
the inner material had been reached
the blOwpipc "back fired" and was ex-

Time after time it was relighted,
but after a second or two's applica-

was examined the con was found to

This was the first time in the discov-

it also provided convincing proof OF
the resisting power of the new ma

pipe was played on a slab of the ma
terial it simply reached a glowing

SAVING " LAMBS.
Thinas 70 considsr In Selecting the
FuturN Breeder,

III !. * eFsHr-r- 6OSVTvv 0uVOVOV 5000
All realize that the ram is half or
more Of every flock, and we know
that as we seldom ever get a eve or
ram that breeds perfect lambs we
must choose a ram that is q high class
fellow and especially strong where
our ewes seem deficient, writes a
sheep grower In the Iowa Homestead.
In grading up a flock, however, I find
but few rams available Mt any price
that can combine the high class NUT
ton form with clear, dense wool. 1t is
because Of this, therefore, that we must
select our future breeding ewes with
utmost care. 1t is very necessary that
we choose well, for when the eve
lambs are two years old they will be
part of the flock, and in two years
more they will be the backbone and
main breeders we look to for profits.
First Of all, the ewes must be good
mixers; then they must have dense,
oily fleece that will protect them from
the rough storms the farm eve must
endure. A deep milking mother Is the
cheapest source Of fat lambs, and for
this reason I want a eve first Of all
a good mixer. So save the eve lamb
that will develop into a good mixer,
1hen choose one that shows by an
open nostril, bright. eye, full, deep
chest, a tendency toward good vitality
and constitution. Choose the lamb
that then springs wide and deep and
11~- 4b,>,,,l, %ho spo1d1lO with hrno1
loin and wide sprung ribs. Garry
these wide lines IN out to the rump
by demanding a wide, broad, well
meated rump on the best types.
Now, If we have chosen for a milk
ing type, suppose we consider the wool
ture breeders. First Of all, this fleece
must be compact, Dense fine quality,
oily fleece. 1t must be of this nature
because the ordinary farm eve must
brave many hard storms, and If her
fleece does not protect her well she
is wasting vitality. With the down
breeds the wool will always be COM
mercially Of secondary Importance, but
as long MS we expect the fleece to pro-
tect u ewes we must breed medium
length wool that is dense, oily and
that tightly wraps the sheep. I don't
expect to endeavor to increase the
weight Of wool on my ewes SO much.
by Increasing the length OF staple as
I do by growing 1t denser on the body
and of medium length. Endeavots to
Increase weight Of wool clip by in
creasing length invariably results in
open, loose fleeces. Among the open.
loose 1eeces are where we find the
pneumonia, colds, catarrh and loss of
vitality.
