THIS MIRRORS EYE
P|ERCES DARKNESS

VALLEJO, Cal, Sept. 20.-A local
inventor has evolved a wireless photo
graphic instrument which works only
at night and reflects on mirror, 1t
is said, a picture of everything with
in a radius of several miles. He has
been invited by Secretary of the Navy
Daniels to take the machine to Wash
ington for inspection by experts of
the navy department.
The instrument Receives its i'm
pressions from a web of wires at
tached to a tall mast. For this rea-
son it Is adaptable to ships, making
impossible, its inventor claims, night
collisions, accidents due to fogs and
running afoul OF icebergs. 1t would
be valuable, too, it is claimed, for
army use, in which the movements
of an enemy at night could be easily
followed.
A test was made recently of the in
strument here. The night was dark,
but observers say they saw reflected
on the machines mirror a picture of
the district for a distance of two
miles; saw the shipping in the vicin-
ity of the Mare Island navy-yard,
railway trains passing up and down
the valley, and persons on the streets
of the city. :
The inventor formerly was wire
operator in the government employ.

NEW YORK, Sept. 20.-A notable
gathering of prominent safety men
from all parts of the country will
assemble in New York to attend the
second annual congress of the Ma
tional Council for Industrial Safety,
to be held at the Hotel McAlpin, be-
ginning next Monday and lasting
three days.
The National Council for Industrial
Safety is the outcome of a meeting
held in Milwaukee a year ago under
the auspices of the Association of
Iron and Steel Electrical Engineers.
Safeguarding human life in indus
trial activity is its aim. The mem
bership includes representatives of
the federal and State agencies, al
ready established to supervise con-
ditions of safety in industries, and
also representatives of the mining,
transportation and manufacturing
industries.
Federal records show that every
hour 2S2 workmen are killed or in
jured that every fifteen minutes a
workman is killed: that every SIX
teen seconds a workman is injured.
Every year 2,035,000 workmen are
killed or injured. During the four
DAYS the safety congress is to be in
session 22.272 worlmen will have been
killed or injured. The financial loss
on account of these deaths and ac-
cidents is conservatively estimated at
not less than $250000.000 a year. In
the four DAYS that the safety con-
gress will be in session about $3,000,-
600 worth of property will have been
destroyed by fire in the United States.
These AuurnG innln6a C0nf1a-
grafton losses.
Seventy per cent of industrial ac-
cidental deaths and accidents are
preventable, it is claimed.

ONE night over two centuries ago a

rock of Gibraltar, led by goatherd,
to st. Michaers cave, where dawn
overlook them, and where they re-
manned all through the next day. AS
soon as darkness had fallen again they
scaled the wall, surrounded the signal
house, and in few moments over
powered the guard. The British in
the fortress never dreamed of danger
so close at hand. Ropes and ladders
were lowered stealthily over the preci-
pice, and the Spaniards, feeling sure
of victory, brought up several hun
bred men for the attack. II all had
gone well Gibraltar might have been
in the hands of Spain again before

Accident prevention Is the name
given to the systematic and scientific
practise for reducing dangers to life.
There is a cause for every accident.
1t Is not enough to summon a sur
geon. The damage is done when the
doctor Is required. The aim of acct
dent prevention Is to prevent the
damage. 1t is the application of the
old proverb prevention is better than
cure" Accident prevention seeks out
the cause of the accident, whether it
be carelessness on the part of the op-
orator, defective machinery, insult
ficient lighting, the wearing of cloth
Ing which becomes entangled in the
machinery, the lack of guards, or
whatever the cause may be. BY study
inn ha
applied which remove the danger and
prevent the accident.
Progress at Large Concerns.
Remarkable progress has already
been made in many large organiza-
tions in removing dangerous condi-
lions to the workers. So thoroughly
has the welfare of the worker been
studied that if he will but obey in
struetions and exercise caution, he
need seldom be exposed to the danger
of accident.
The National Council for Industrial
Safety is dedicated to the proposition
that the industrial operations of this
country can be conducted without
sacrificing or manning 2,035,000 in
dustrial workers each year. Never
was an organization formed with a
loftier ambition or to strive for a
nobler purpose.
The records which many large in
dustrial organizations have already
secured where accident prevention
has been doing It's splendid work
have conclusively proved that sys-
tematic, scientific accident prevention
can reduce deaths and accidents in
a manner which cannot be accom-
plished in any other way. One of
the largest industrial organizations
in this country, employing over 200,-
900 men, has reduced its death and |
accident record 43 per cent. through |
accident prevention practises.

Once again, in the great siege that
began in 1873 and lasted more than
three years, England came danger
ously near losing the fortress. Spain
and France took advantage of Brit
ish losses in America to open fire
on the Mediterranean stronghold. At
ter the garrison of over 5000 men had
been reduced to starvation, and only
the bravery of General Eliot could
keep them together. Gibraltar was
bombarded from the mainland. Just
when his command seemed lost under
the strain of attack and Of hardships
endured so long, the Scotsman led
his troops to the attack, and, taking
the much larger Spanish army by
surprise. drove them back and burned
their fortifications. Again Spain and
France attacked from the sea; but
Eliot burned their ships with redhot
cannonballs. The struggle was re-
newed from time to time all during
the siege, until at last peace was
proclaimed. General Eliot. returning

Cat and Dog Burn House;

HAWTHORNE, Sept 2O-Edward
Henking bought a story -and-a-half
bungalow here recently, and last
Thursday had his furniture moved
there in preparation for his wife's re-
turn from a visit to Germany. Yes
terday he heard meows and banks,
yowls and growls, and then a heavy
crash. Apparently a chair had been
upset by his pet cat and dog fighting.
A minute later his bungalow was

we're found the incinerated bodies of

A business Revolt in Germany.

From the New York Times.
We have already noted signs of the
impatience of German business men
with the rule of the landowners and
the bureaucracy that prevailed almost
unchallenged until about four years
ago. At the time the combination
which Chancellor Won Buelow made
with the Conservatives and the Centre
in financial matters led to the forma-
ton of what Is known as the Hansa
Bund. or Business Mems League, to
secure equity for business interests.
It's progress has been repid. Recent
reports show membership exceeding
half a million, or twice that of the
Bund der Landwirthe, or Agricultural
League, the association of the agra.
rians formed eighteen years ago. The
Hansa Bund has now fifty-two men,
bers of the Reichstag and the general
support of twenty-five more. 1t has
sixty members in the lower house OF
the Prussian Diet and sixteen in the
Prussian upper house, with represen-
Ia ton in the Diets of Saxony, Ba-
Varia and Alsace-Lorraine.
The bund Is not primarily political
organization. It aims at protecting
business interests in the various
measures that come before the impe.
rial or state legislatures, especially In
matters of taxation. It's founder and
leader is Privy Councillor Jacob Ries-
ser.
In the recent legislation to meet the
heavy expense of the increase in the
German army the influence of the
Hansa Bund was felt, and though ia
vors were secured by the agrarians
they were less than were claimed foul
years ago. In the long run the bust.
ness men, who represent fully two.
thirds of the German people. will bt

tionism of Germany, which is chiefly
for the benefit of the landowners.

hurled over the cliff, the rest ST,
rendered and were taken prisoners.
The history of Gibraltar was fo'
many centuries one of sieges and cap
lures. The rock was first known to
the Greeks and Romans as one of the
pillars of Hercules; the other, Mount
Abyla, stands on the African shore.
But at that period, when ships hardly
sailed out of the Mediterranean, the
pillar" was unimportant to any great
nation in war. 1t fell into the hands
of Phenicians. Romans, Cartha-
genians and Visigoths at different
periods in history. Tarill, landing
there when he crossed from Africa
into Spain, built a castle on the rock,
which was therefore called Gebel-al-
Tarik Chill of Tarik). the original
form of the name Gibraltar. 1t fell
into the hands of England after the
Spaniards and Moors had fought over
it for centuries.

Danger In Walking on the Track.

Danger In Walking on the Track.
From the Boston Post.
1t is a well-known fact that a very
large proportion of the persons killed
by railroad trains each year are those
who are walking on the track-in
other words, those who are trespass-
ers. Carelessness and laxity of en-
forcement of such laws as we have
against the practise send many good
men to their doom and leave widows
and orphans a charge on the commu-
nifty.
Foreign countries have little of this
because the laws against track walk
ing are stringent and are strictly en-
forced. Canada Is beginning to fol-
low their example, under the lead of
the Canadian Pacific railroad, which
is crusading against all trespassers
on it's rails. The other day In Win
nipeg twenty people in one batch
were fined Sc each and costs for
walking on the tracks, and the move
ment seems to be gaining elsewhere.
In some cases magistrates have sent
persistent offenders to Jail.
Better, go to Jail, however, and be
cured of the habit than to be killed
by q locomotive.
