SAFETY ON THE RAIL.
Automatic Device Prevents Train From
Passing Danger Signals.

Passing Danger Signals.
A device designed to prevent Il train
from running past a block signal set
against it was tested recently on the
Long Island railroad near New York
city.
A special train was used. On the
first trial the train was run at a speed
of about thirty miles an hour. AS it
passed the signal a long metal arm
connected with the air brake lever and
extending through the roof of the last
car came in contact with a crosspiece
of steel hung at the top Of a support
ing post. AS the arm struck the cross
piece the air brakes were automatically
set and the train stopped within $50
feet. On the second trial the train was
run at forty-five miles an hour and was
stopped within 900 feet. On the last
trial the speed was nearly ffty-tive
miles m hour. and the train was stop
ped in 1900 feet.
The device is simple in construction
and not expensive to install. It's inven-
tor claims that it cannot be affected by
snow. ice or sleet and will stop a train
ven if the engineer fails to observe a
danger signal. 1t can be attached to
any system of semaphores used on
railroads Of this country. The general
idea Of the invention is not unlike the
automatic tripping stop used in the
subway. but it is overhead and may be
used either on electric or steam roads.

A Curtain Hanger.

A close coiled spring, about one
quarter inch in diameter. makes Il
much better hanger for a short curtain
than a small rod. The spring should
be about one inch shorter than the
width of the window and fastened
with screw hooks. The spring is pref
cradle not only because it is less apt
to tear the fabric. as it will give some
il the curtain is pulled. but also for the
reason that it is much easier to put it
through the hem than the rod.

STAGE OUTLOOK TODAY.

A. L. Erlanoer Discusses the Present
Situation In the Theatrical Business.
In a recent interview A. L. Erlanger
Of the well known theatrical firm of
Klaw & ErIanger frankly discussed the
present situation in the theatrical bust
ness. Following are some Of the strik-
ing points that Mr.. Granger made:
The present theatrical season. from
the standpoint Of receipts. is the worst
in seventeen years.
The formation If the syndicate was
the commencement Of tile validity OF
the theatrical contract.
Until last year the easiest thing in
the world to organize in any small
town was a corporation to build a
theater.
Big successes that used to run from
six to seven years are now fortunate
IL they can get two full seasons.
There never has been a theatrical
star or a theatrical manager clever
enough to fool the public.
The theaters have overanticipated
the populations in the large cities Of
this country at least twenty years.

Tyinq Strinqs on Tools,

the workman to spend about one hours
time trying to fish it out with Il piece
Of wire. This could have been avoided
if II end Of a length of string had
been tied to the wrench and the other
to his wrist. 1t is always best to tie
a string to any tool and fasten it to
the person if the tool is to be used
where dropping it would cause trouble.

Weaver chUcked in an error, and sew

But hits are what the Sox need,
and what they seem unable to get.
Their attack is not worthy of the
name They bat without confidence,
and it seems that their terrific batting
rally of two days ago, when they col
lected eight hits in nine innings, will
have to last for some time.
They return home tomorrow, with
the fast-traveIng Tigers as their OPP
pOnents. Not much satisfaction can
be CLEANED from those words. Jen-
nings has his men walloping the ball
to all corners, and his pitchers are eff
fective enough to beat the Sox.
Baltimore edged into first place in
the Federal by blaHking Brownies
Sloufeds. Jack Quinn held the St.
Louis crew to four hits. Groom was
hit hard, Walsh getting a homer and
Doolan a triple and single.
Kansas City batted Knetzer and
Walker hard and nosed out Pitts
burgh. Henning was wild, but kept
the hits scattered. StOvan got hons
er, double and single. Kruger pasted a
double and two singles, and Lennox
got foUT-baggeT.
,Matty was lucky to beat Brooklyn.
A single, homer, triple and double
punched in one inning gave the Dodg-
ers three runs. Then Catcher threw
the game away with a wild chuck to
center, allowing three Giants to
score. DaUbert soaked a single, triple
and homer.
PhiIIies scored five times in first
inning, but couldn't hold lead. Ru-

while Alexander was pounded. Con-
molly, Schmidt, Deal, Paskert and Lo-

anywhere he desired.
Tinker is hammering team play in
to his hired men, arguing that few
games lost now will be won back
when the athletes become acquainted
with each other and know what to
expect.
Prendergast retired after the sixth
inning, when. he had allowed four
hits. A wrenched ankle forced him to
turn the job over to Doc Watson,
whose soUthpaw slants completely
baffled the Bisons. Two hits were
made off him in three innings.
Louden, the third basen1an former
ly with Detroit, is having a dizzy ca
reer with the Feds, and his present
. clip will carry him through with the
first flight of batters. He maced a
double and two singles yesterday and
was all over the field.
The victory lifted the Feds above
the 500 mark and into fourth place
in their league. They have the best
record of either of. the local teams,
and Tinker appears to have finally
geared his machine up for a steady
run. When Brennan gets in proper
condition and can take his regular
turn in the box the heaving corps will
be able to withstand some brutal as
saults.
Joe Benz was yesterdays victim of
weak White Sox hitting. Butcher Boy
Joe went out and fooled the Browns,
granting them five hits and tanning
eight in seven innings. But all of this
good work went for naught because
the Sox could do nothing with the
portside f1inging of Earl Hamilton.
Our gang got five hits also, but
none of'them were punched in a way
