The Baggageman Rejoieeih

l The baggageman has at last come in- to his own. And he is properly rejoic- Ing over his good fortune. For the ln- | terstale Commerce Commission, that far-off body whose ,sole duty 1t seemed | to many was the fixing of freight rates, has deigned to consider the woes | Of the baggageman and has issued an order that 1t is believed will put stop to the rapidly increasing size of trunks.
 l Since the man who first invented the wardrobe trunk put his idea on the patience of the baggageman has been fast wearing out. Many of these | trunks are over six feet long, permit ting the fastidious to transport their entire wardrobes without the unple as- antness of having their clothes soile or rumpled at the end of journey. | While this was great convenience to the traveller, 1t soon became an equally great hardship on the baggageman, of- ten resulting in accident or waste of time in handling these freak trunks.
 Now, however, the railroads are per mitted to charge extra for all trunks over forty five inches in size. The ex- trn charge is fixed at the proporlionate of five pounds for every inch over for ty-iive And in addition, railroads may, on one years notice, refuse to ae. cepl any baggage over six feel ln any division.
 Others affected by this decision of I the Interstate Commerce Commission are dfummefs, actors and costumes, people who are particularly in the habit of using what one baggageman has termed slntolerable nuisances. The above taken from an exchange is sensible article from one point et view, but the patient passenger wish | es the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion would establish a correspondence school for the benefit of the Rah-Rah college boy baggageman at the beach stations, so that trunks and suit eases will not be thrown on to the rock bal lasted roadbed in such a way as to prohibit future usefulness. Sad expe- rienee prompts the wish.

The Silkworm's s Rival

With the increase of the human race and its many necessities, there seems always to arise at just the right time a method of supply. The old way of ob- taining silk from the silkworm will continue probably as long as the world shall exist, but to care for the silk, worm and to wind the silk is so slow tedious process that silk must al- ways be high priced, and it's use lim- tied to the few. But now comes the modern invention of Viscose or artiii- cial silk from wood. Just as We had l to abandon flax and cotton for paper making, and chop down trees to pro- duce the tons and tons demanded, so now we are abandoning the silkwofm with it's slow and expensive processes, 1 and are putting the trees Into the mill, grinding them up, treating them in a certain chemical manner, most of which is secret, so as 10 produce not exactly an equivalent for silk, but in many respects material that has wider adaptability and greater avail ability than silk. This new silk is readily manufactured into a close imi- tation of human hair, and for the va rious intracacies of feminine headgear of puts and pads and frills and rats and of other things, this new silk sure ly has decided advantage, as it does not give the wearer the feeling that 1t came from some head of uncertain cleanliness or desirability. The artiti- cial hair is even more cleanly than the natural, because il has gone through chemical processes which make it practically pure, literally so in the
 lktn. Nll1A tlet ttlm is commonly used
 This new silk has a decided luster and gives the fingers pleasing sensa. ton; it Is not harsh and irritating, as some forms of silk fabrics are inclined 10 be. In lacewoFk beautiful patterns may be readily formed, and patterns adapted 10 true silk lend themselves as readily To the artificial. ii takes color readily, and hence is valuable for many kinds of fabrics where true silk, on account of it's greater expense, would not be so attractive for fabrics that need to be repeatedly tied and united into bows and similar objeets.-lnde- pendent.
 samuel Donovan of Harrison street has returned from weeks visit with his brother Austin in Hartford. He brought home some samples of the silk made from pulp which is manu. factured in his native town Of Marcus brook, Pa. The silk has good luster and il is hard to tell il from the silk worms production.

Summer Preparations at NorthiieId

kenarden Hall, the new administra- ton building of the Northiield Schools and Summer Conferences, is already the scene of active preparations Tor the SIst Annual Conference Season. This building, which is the gift of Mrs. John S. Kennedy of New York city, in memory of her husband, greatly ia. ciutates the Northheld work. It is centrally located and contains the ad- ministratiye offices formerly in scat tered and cramped quarters.
 other important changes have also taken place. Marquand Hall, which has housed thousands during the past thirty years, was closed for repairs last summer. IL has been completely re- modelled and improved and, together with Gould Hall which was first used last summer and accommodates about l50 guests, will add greatly 10 the ca pacity and comfort of the Conference grounds.
 Nor is the expansion oi the work in buildings alone. There has been a steady increase in all directions from year 10 year, not only in the number of speakers and visitors, but in the va- rled phases of truth presented. During the school year the Conference build inss are used by the 800 girls of North field seminary. The summer work may be said to begin with the semina- rv commencement, June 7-l0. Then follow in quick succession; the student conference, June 2osa; The Young

New Haven Wars on Trespassers


 The death list of trespassers upon the property of the New York, New Haven X Hartford railroad has in- creased to such an extent that the rail- road has sent an appeal to the cities and towns along it's lines for active CO., operation in efforts to prevent trespas- sing.
 The Interstate Commerce Commis- sion reports that 152 deaths, more than l 55 per cent of all deaths on the rail- road for the year ended June 30, 1912, were of persons wno had no legal right on the railroad premises. In addition l0s trespassers were injured during the year.
 It has always been the policy of the railroad to prevent trespassing a much as possible, but the report of the commission has caused renewed activ- ity to lessen this casualty list. | These accidental deaths are prevent able. The railroad has ordered 10, 900 additional warning signs to be erectes on the highways, and school superin. tendents have been requested to eau ton their pupils of the danger of play ing near the tracks. Warnings have also been issued to the public against using the tracks as highways. The general impression is that tres ! passer is tramp, but that is not cor rect. Less than one-quarter of those killed were described as tramps. Most of those killed used the tracks as a short cut some were boys or young men stealing a ride on trains for short distance.
 \ number were reputable residents, killed while unlawfully on the rail- road property.
 The most daring trespasser to con tend with is the boy or young man who jumps on a freight train for a short ride. In spite of large force of detectives maintained to prevent this abuse the census of those killed and in- jured in this way shows an increase.
 Trespassers are arrested sometimes and taken to court. The magistrates, as rule, are very lenient, especially when boys are the culprits.
 These boys often do considerable damage when riding on coal car. They throw coal at signal lamps, break ing them and making accidents to trains likely.
 Boys often smuse themselves by set ting or releasing the brakes on stand ing freight cars, causing much damage at times.
 The man who uses the railroad track as a short cut to and from his work is the most difficult to contend with, He gets to believe that he has legal right to walk on the tracks because he has been doing SD unmolested for a long time.
 In some towns the tracks are looked upon as public highway and the warning signs are defaced or destroyed.
 In the entire country during 1911, $500 such trespassers were killed. To aeate the evil, earnest cooperation of public officials with the railroad peo- pie is asked
 Putnam railroad officials say that a number of persons are using their tracks as short cut and to avoid the subway. Especially is this true on the Norwich and Worcester track where people are risking life and limb daily to save few minutes time and what they consider Il little inconvenience. The cut south of the depot is very dangerous spot and should never be used as highway by pedestrians.

First Idea of sewino Machine

The earliest attempt at sewing by machinery of which there is any au- theneic record was in 1755, in which year machine was patented in Eng land by Charles F. Weisenthal. In this machine the stitch was formed by needle. having two points with an eye at mid-length, which passed completely through the goods in imi- tation of hand sewing.
