New Discovery to Be Tested.

A new method of giving medical stu
dents instruction which, it is said W II
largely obviate the necessity of dis
section. is to be tried at a Philadel-
phia medical college. The process
originated through the recent discov-
cry by German student of a fluid
can be rendered transparent. The
fluid is composed of several oils, and
it turns the flesh into sort Of trans
parent jelly, enabling the students to
study the veins, muscles and bones
even better, it is asserted, than if they
resorted to the dissecting knife.

Iceland to Have Railway.

Iceland at last is to have a railway.
The enterprise is small to begin with,
consisting of a six-mile freight belt
line around the city AID harbor of the
capital. Reikiavik; but it is thought
that once a beginning is made a rail
way running across to Tningvalla will
be built. Two hundred men will be
employed and it will cost 100000.
The line will be done in 1916. 1t is a
private enterprise. Iceland lies 155
miles from Norway. It is about the
size Of Virginia or Kentucky and has
more than $4,000 population.

BOY WHO WITNESSED
WRECK IS Inventor

Cleveland o., Nov. 13.-seven years
ago Carl Buhl, then nineteen, witnessed
q railroad wreck. An engineer of a
switch engine had asked tower man
whether a certain passenger train had
passed that point. He was informed
II had and pulled his engine onto the
track A few minutes later, the en-
gineer was dead, passenger train was
wrecked and several other lives were
lost in the collision. The tower man
had made a mistake. Today Carl Buhl,
electrician and inventor, has perfected
what he believes to be the one complete
and most important railroad signalling
and safety device in existance. His
Invention, he claims, flashes danger
signals before the engineers eyes right
in the engine cab-hence fog or other
bad weather conditions win not inter
fere with the engineer getting all the
signals.
An ingenious contact device Is the
key TO the situation. In EXPLAINING
his device Bull shows a miniature 10,
comotive on n miniature track A white
light burns in the engineers cab as long
as the track is clear for three blocks
ahead Another train on the track
within that distance causes a contact
which shows a green light in tho cab.
Within three blocks of any break in
the rails the contact flashes a red light
in the cab. II for some reason the lights
should not work, bell rings automat-
ically.
Perhaps the most valuable part Of the
invention Is seen when the engineer
dies or falls unconscious at his post. II
such is the case, and tho red or green
light shows, the breaks are automatical.
ly thrown on when the train enters the
last block Bull has worked for seven
years ON the invention andeis seeking
recognition from the railroads, He is
considering placing his invention be-
fore members Of the Interstate Com.

that this was very questionable nc.

Looks More FAVORABLE.

Washington, Nov. 13.-'There are
elements in the Mexican situation
which J. cannot at pres sent discuss, which
make it look to me very much more ia.
vorable," said President Wilson this
afternoon.
Inasmuch as communications had
been received from Lind at Vera Cruz;
Charge d Affaires O'Shaughnessy in
Mexico City, and William Bayard Hale
at Nogales, Ariz., following his con.
ference ON the Mexican side of the
border with General Carranza, it was
conjectured that triangular CORE.
spondence was progressing which meant
not only Huerta 8 early retirement, but
also truce between the warning Mexi.
can factions.
1t was believed that a settlement had
virtually been reached on provision
al president, satisfactory to both ele.
ments to succeed Huerta, and continue
to serve until an election can be held.
No detail or definite announcement
would be made, however, II was under
stood until after the negotiations have
been closed and the last possibility Of
slip eliminated.
