MONUMENT TO CELTIC TRIBES
Prehistoric Encampment in England
Had Fortifications Showing Amaz-
ing Ingenuity of Builders.

BY the purchase of Maiden castle,
near Dorchester. through the duchy
of Cornwall, the king of England has
saved from neglect and possible de-
struction one of the most perfect pre-
historic encampments in Great Brit
ain. the rival of Stonehenge in age
and interest. The Notifications were
erected by a race who existed long
before the days of historical records
and who gave it the name of Mai Dun,
or Hill of Strength Maiden castle
is an intrenched hill rather than a
castle. for on the north side these pre-
historic builders raised three great
ramparts sixty feet high, with deep
bitches intervening, and similar ram
parts were cunningly arranged to COW
er each other on the other sides of the
hill. The only entrances are by wind
ing paths, which form mazes among
the ramparts and which lead to the
top of the hill. where a great dew
pond was built in which, by an in
genious feat of engineering known to
the prehistoric people, it was posi-
BILE to collect quantities of water for
the animals and inhabitants of the
hill On the plain at the top, which
covers 1870 acres the neolithic man
could leave his cattle absolutely Sc
cure from attack by wolves or by hu-
man enemies. The Romans occupied
the fortress in later years and
strengthened it with stonework, but
the triumph of having created this
gigantic intrenchment belongs to the
engineers of the forgotten Celtic
tribes.

Sapreoation is Legal.

The Maryland Court of Appeals in a
preliminary opinion handed down held
that the Mayor and City Council of Bal
timore may, IN the exercise of its police
powers, validly pass an ordinance for the
segregation OF the white and colored
races without conflicting with the provi-
sions of the Constitution of the United
States or OF the State of Maryland
The opinion, however, declares invalid
on technical grounds an ordinance ap-
proved by the Mayor in 1911.
1t was announced that an ordinance
will be drawn up to meet the legal exac-
tons.

APPROVE SAFETY FIRST IDEA
Railroad Employers Respond to Re-
quest for Greater Degree of Care

A student of railway economics says
solve in It's efforts to conserve human
life is to find ways to protest those who
will not protect themselves. One serious
feature of this problem has been the
carelessness of railroad employees, but
conditions are vastly better than they
were few years ago.
In order to make their employees more
careful, the larger companies have in
augurated a system of surprise tests"
These are conducted among all classes
of employees. Such tests are given at
unexpected times and under unusual con-
ditions, so that they reveal to just what
extent rules are broken and risks taken.
A record of tests made last year by
the Pennsylvania lines is an excellent
indication of the support that employees
are giving this great safety first move
ment for the purpose of such tests is
to insure the safety both of employees and
the public at large. Railroad officials
realize that if the two classes are to be
properly protected, every employe who
has anything to do with shop practice,
with maintenance of way, or with the
operation of trains must refrain from
taking chances of any kind.
Employees, the Pennsylvania finds, are
glally cooperating to this end. Agreeable
results have marked every state of the
safety campaign, to such extent that
the number of cases of carelesness or neg
ligence reported is less than l per cent
of the total number of tests made.
