Powerful SearchIiuhts.

The new electric searchlight projec-
tors made by the Allgemeine establish
ment of Berlin are among the most
powerful yet to be produced, and their
candle-power, which is too high for
measurement, can only be reckoned In
hundreds of millionA What is striking
is the new method OF regulating the
arc. The large carbons are now moved
back and forth by small electric mo-
tors and suitable gears, current being
applied to the motors by set of re-
lays which work according to the cur
rent taken by the arc, thus securing
an automatic adjustment OF the arc
length in the best way. The base of
the protector contains other motors
for all the searchlight movements, and
distant lever control is so designed
that turning the lever in all directions
makes the protector also follow these
same directions for pointing the beam.
These searchlights will carry several
miles and still give light enough to

CoNDUCTRESsES ON BUS LINE
Brooklyn Suggestion stirs the Imagi-
nation of Possible Passengers,
Anyhow.

Conductresses are to ring up the
fares on one of the new Brooklyn bus
lines which are to supplement our
transportation facilities-if the board
OF estimate consents.
One of the lines seeking a franchise
announces that to do the conducting
only girls need apply. They didn't say
pretty girls, but let US hope that pretty
girls are meant. If she should step on
our toes while reaching for the bell
rope. her light weight and gracious
apologies will make us happy to have
been in the way.
For she must be thin WASTED in or
der to squeeze by comfortably. And
we shall insist that she set a common
sense fashion in the matter of hatpins.
Nor can she be permitted to knot her
small change in handkerchief or to
carry her bills in the unconventional
manner favored by some women shop
pers. Moreover, the company must
insist that no stops shall be made in
front of candy stores. 1t is bad
enough to wait while the conductor
gulps beer. No passenger should be
expected to bide the conductress' con.
sumption of an Ice cream soda.

Mr.. SHAW PATENTS A
SUPPLEMENTAL BOILER

Edwin c. Shaw, of No. 726 King
street, who is employed in the ship
building department Of the American
Car and Foundry Company, has been
awrded a patent by the government
on the invention of a supplemental
boiler. The device has been con-
structed to be used in Rilroad locomo-
tives, and is placed directly over the
fire box Through its center is a
cylinder for an air current. Although
the boiler is but a few feet long, it
can make as much steam as the large
boiler which is now i'm use and has
the advantage of heating very quickly
and not using such large amount of
coal.
Mr. Shaw has invented several other
appliances. some OF which are now in
practical use.
