banana Canal Chains.

The huge locks of the Panama canal
are guarded by massive chains stretch
ed across the channel. No vessel can
crash into the gates at any of the locks
because of these tenders, placed seven
ty feet from each gate and near the
surface of the water. If the chains
are struck by a boat they gradually
yield to the force, paying out to a GER
tain distance, which depends upon the
violence of the impact.
The mechanisms which regulate the
chain tenders are installed on either
wall. A system of hydraulic cylinders
is used for raising and lowering the
chains. The action of the fender when
struck by boat is modified in part by
the friction produced in the machinery,
but mainly by the resistance produced
by water flowing through Valves

Slowbetter is a calm man, not easily
upset. On one occasion, as his motor
car had come to a sudden stop, he
crawled underneath it to see what was
the matter.
Somehow or other some petrol ig-
nited. A fierce burst of fame and
smoke came forth, enveIoping Slowbet-
ter. IN the midst of the excitement he
walked to one side with his usual slow
and REGULAR step. His face was black,
his eyebrows and eyelashesN were
isinged, and what was left of his hair
and beard was a sight to behold.
Some one brought a mirror, and he
had look at himself. As usual, how
ever. he took matters philosophically
"WeH," he said slowly and deliber-
ately, 81 was needing a shave and my
hair cut nyway.''-Exchange

Animals We Never Met.

DR.. n. A. Cobb, an authority on
zoology, declares that there must be
hundreds of thousands of species of
neeInatodes, or threadworms, more
than nine-tenths of which are still un-
known to science. Of the parasitic
nematodesx infesting y vertebrate ami
mails alone it is, estimated that there
are at least $4,000 species. Insects,
monusks, crustaceans and other animal
groups are also much infested, and as
a rule given species of nematode is
peculiar to a single species of host.
Lastly, the species Of nematode living
free in soil and water vastly outnum-
bers the parasitic species. AS these
creatures are enormously prolific, the
number of individuals must be quite
beyond conception. DR.. Cobb estimates
that in the upper foot OF an arabic soil
the number of neLHatodes runs to thou
sands of millions an acre-Exchange.

WIZ rhex Walk bal circle.

eff you were lost in desert or in a
forest and tried to ind your way out, -
says a well known scientist, you
would be almost sure to walk in a
circle" This well known fact is due
to a slight inequality in the length of
the legs. Careful measurements a
series Of skeletons have shown that
only 10 per cent had the lower limbs
equal in length, 35 per cent had the
right limb longer than the left, while
in S. per cent the left limb was the
longer.
The result of one limb being longer
than the other will naturally be that q
person will unconsciously take longer
step with the longer limb, and conse-
quently will trend to the right or left,
according as the left or rig&t leg is the
longer. The left leg being more fire.
quenHy the longer, the inclination
should take place more frequently to
the right than to the left, and this con-
clus1on is quite borne out by observa-
lions made on a number of persons
when walking blindfolded. The in
equality in the length of limb is not
confined to any sex or race, but seems
to be universal in all respects.

MISS HOPHO A SUIGIDEs
FINDS CORONER PHELAN

Mary Hopko. of 200 Pine street,
committed suicide by jumping in
front of the Bar Harbor express at
Burr Road crossing, Monday, accord
ing to a. finding made by Coroner
John J. Phelan. Her husband,k An
drew Hopko, in trying to drag the
woman from the train, received in
juries which also caused his death.
Coroner Phelan finds the death of the
man was accidental. The couple
lived unhappily according to the tes-
timony of witnesses before the coron-
err. Monday they had been to look at
a house in Fairfield but they could not
agree on the purchase and after a,
quarrel the woman broke from her
husband and threw herself in front
of the train. Gnstave A. MorniIn-
veg, engineer of the train that killed
the couple was also engineer of the
train that ran down and killed I'm
dertaker John B. Reynolds. He has
been in the service of the New Haven
road "a years without figuring in a.
fatality until this year.

Charge Of Treasurer Muennich. A
general collection will also be taken
up.
There were heavy frosts and even
ice formation on Thursday and Sat
urday nights along the river valleys
in the town. The uplands seem to
have escaped the visitation. Other
wise the fruit prospects, which are
now excellent, would be very poor.
The infant son of Mr.. and Mrs
George P. Williams died last Friday,
having survived only a few days
John G. Stetson is having a new
tennis court constructed at his sum-
mer place in Pleasant Valley. When
it is finished he will have two on the

candidates for the ministry before they
may be ordained.
This action is designed to end the
discussion of the alleged heresy ques-
ton of the alleged heresy question IN
which the New York Presbytery and
the Union Theological Seminary are
involved, following the charge or the
Cincinnati Presbytery that New York
be expelled because it licensed young
men from the seminary who hold views
not in accordance with the doctrines OF
the church.
A number of presbyteries from diff
ferent parts of the country also took
this stand, but Cincinnati led the night
To-day's action is regarded as a shrewd
way out of the difficulty. as the demand
for the epulsion of the New York Pres
bytery is evaded, although Insisting
that something must be done to put
an end to the practice of licensing
men who are held to be out OF har-
mony with the teachings, of the church.
The report was summed up in these
words:
1.-The General Assembly renews
positive mandate with full expectation
of loyal compliance by all our pres
byteries and directs that when a can
didate appears who is found to be not
clear and positive on any one of the
fundamentals of our faith his 1icenSure
be deferred until such time as in the
Judgment of the presbytery, he shall
become
ing:
Presbytery and representatives of ov-
erturning presbyteries appeared before
the committee and made full and frank
statements as to the issues involved
Complaint was made against the mem
bers of New York Presbytery for Ii
censing recently and on previous oc-
casions candidates who could not at
firm their belief in the essential doc
trine of the Word of God and our
standards that our Lord Jesus Christ
was born of the Virgin Mary.
THE members of the New York
Presbytery felt deeply panied and ag-
grieved that the overturing .presbyte-
ries should propose drastic action-not
on the basis of the presbytery's records
but on the basis of exaggerated and
newspaper reports.
'"The brethren on both sides of the
controversy together with the mem |
bers of your committee, expressed their |
strong conviction that this continued |
agitation was bringing reproach upon |
the church, was hindering the cause |
of Christ, and that something must be |
done effectually to put stop to it, |

1t is much more important than most
people think to give the name Of the
telephone exchange before the number
instead of vice versa and to be ex-
tremely particular in sounding the con-
sonants clearly in any conversation
Also it is necessary to distinguish care
fully between 5 and and to say ''oh"
for O, instead Of ''naught." which is
often mistaken for 4 and sometimes,
cnriously enough, for 8. All these are
useful memoranda which deserve to be
kept in mind as steadily as that duty
of courtesy to the telephone girl which
is. we fear, too often forgotten.-Lon-
don Globe.

Courtesy In Business Pays.

In the American Magazine is story
by Fred G. Kelly to prove that cour-
tesy in business pays. 1t has to do
with George c. Boldt, manager of the
Waldorf-Astoria In New York city and
former manager OF a Philadelphia hos

Zone night when all the hotels in
Philadelphia were crowded and it was
almost impossible to obtain a room a
man and his wife drove up to Bo1dt's
hotel and asked in a tone of despair if
he could not give them place to sleep.
Yes Boldt told them; you can
take my room. That's all have
1.-The next morning the guest told
Boldt that manager with his sense
of courtesy would be an assured sue
cess in a much larger hotel.
And added the guest, I'm willing
to provide you with the hotel
"Since then that same guest has in
vested many millions of dollars in ho-
tells under Boldt's direction. The guest
was William Waldorf Astor.''
