The Absent Guide-Board.

Charlotte Observer.
The Lumberton Robesonian has tax
en- the trouble to reproduce legis-
lative mummy in the shape of the
law that requires county commission
ers to placard the roads. The bill
was passed nearly a year ago. It sol
EMMY set forth that "the boards of
commissioners in the several There
are 1907 counties in this State shall,
within six months after the ratifica-
ton of this act, cause to be erected
and maintained at the various cross
ings and forks Of the public highways
of each county guide-posts with prop
er inscriptions and devices thereon in
dicating the direction to and distance
from the most important town or vi
cinity within ten miles Of such guide
posts. Such posts shall be of sub
stantial timber and the lettering there
on shall not be less than two inches
in height and of legible character
It would be interesting to know just
how many counties in North Carolina
have taken this law seriously, or how
many commissioners have been ar
rested and indicted for not obeying
the Honorable Legislature. 1t is one
of the best laws ever enacted. 1t was
put on the statute books in response
to urgent petitions from all parts OF
the State, and it appears to have been
laughed at. There is not a board OF
commissioners in the State, perhaps
that has wilfully ignored the law
They have been simply unmindful Of
it, and this suggests that the Super
ior Court judges in their rounds Of
the State could accomplish fine worl
by making it a point to impress thu
importance of this law upon CRANE
juries, with recommendation that th'
commissioners be reminded of it's -ex
istence.

THINGS SEEN AND HEARD

Mule Drivers and Auto Drivers.
ssThere are fools who drive mules
as we'll as fools who drive automo-
biles." That's the way Lumberton
man felt about it when a man driving
a mule had refused to give him hail
the road and caused him to run his
auto into a ditch. This same man
asked the reporter to have something
to say about the man who drives a
mule and will not give an automobile
driver half the road. It is true that
some men who drive mules act as
though they owned the roads and
will not "drive out" and let an auto
mobile pass.

CHARGES ONETIME POLICE HEAD. WAS
 POISON PENMAN"

New York, May 4.-The Federal Grand Jury yesterday afternoon in dicted George Jacob, formerly a po- lice lieutenant in New Orleans, on charge of sending scurrilous and ofb- scene letters through the mails. He was arraigned before Samuel .M. Hitchcock, United States commits sioner, who held him in $2,000 bail for pleading on Monday.
 The complaining witnesses were Mrs. Anna LA. Brixton, 28 years old, of No 2,311 Seventh avenue, and her husband. Mrs. Brixton is beautiful and wears many jewels.
 Letters Mrs. Brixton said she had received from Jacob in the last two years were laid before MT. Cotter, an assistant district attorney, recently and soon thereafter Jacob was arrest ed by a post office inspector.
 Mrs. Brixton told the Grand Jury in the inquiry which resulted, that she was an actress in New Orleans when she married Ralph Jennings, owner of a theatre in that city, She divorced she said. They became engaged, but she changed her mind and married her present husband. Jacob, she said, followed her to New York and began to write her abusive letters until she and her husband threatened to have him arrested if he did not stop writ ing.
 IA woman as pretty as you can be made not so pretty by l1ydrochloric acide,'' was the threat contained in one of the letters read to the Grand Jury. Mrs. Brixton took that to the district attorney.

EUROPEAN GUNS
 FOR AMERICAN TROOPS ABROAD

Washington, May 4 = American troops that go to France will have to use Allied guns and intuition if they are to be of use in fighting against the Germans, Howard Coffin of the ad- visor commission of the council of na tional defense today told state gover- nors here for a defense conference. The Allies, he said. are making more munitions than they can use and can help supply the American soldiers.
 eff our army is to be of service there,'' said MT. Coffin, fit must use European standards. To carry our standards abroad would create end less confusion. We would have to es- tablish factories abroad. Allied con tracts are lapsing here now and we can use the output of our own fac tories equipped to manufacture ac- cording to European specifications.
 '-We face entry to the war with the great advantage of having numerous factories working on war contracts and with thousands of skilled men available. This is a tremendous as- set. Had we entered the war two years ago we would have had to do what England has done-take over our factories"

'.The MOrning After''
(By DIR. L. w. BoWER)

One of the characteristic headaches due to uric acid in the system, which acts as a poison when it accumulates.is due to alcohol taken the night before The kidneys do not succeed in throw ing off this poisonous accumulation. the stomach is nauseated, or the blood congests in the head, causing throb- ping pain, called headache-the heart is depressed, circulation of blood poor to the extremities, the muscles feel tired, or twinges of pain here and there are felt, and when this uric acid is de- posted in the tissues or joints it causes rheumatism or gout. I always advise the drinking of hot water, half pint in the morning, and a little Anurfc. Sometimes the "blues," or a. sort of rash, or a pimply face, gives warning of an "uric acid storm" At such times always take Anuric (double strength) which can be obtained at almost any drug store, and which you will find disso1ves the uric acid almost as ho, water does sugar.
 Avoid too much meat, tea and alco- hol. Drink an abundance of water, both hot and cold. Take Anuric three times a day until the bad symptoms all sub- side. This is the best way to avoid rheumatism and many of the pans and aches due to a uric acid condi- ton. If you drink any alcpholic bev- craze you should keep the Kidneys and liver active with Anuric, so as to throw off the poisons which accumulate. If your tongue is coated-a dark brown taste, breath foul, followed sometimes by colds, indigestion, biiousness, con- stipation or sour acid stomach, you should take some vegetable laxative Such one is made in sugar-coated form from the .May-apple, leaves Of aloe, and root of jalap, and commonly sold by almost all druggists as Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They are standard and have been in ready-to- use form for nearly 50 years-Adv.

WON'T SANCTION SUIT AGAINST
 N. \. DIRECTORS

Boston, May 4.-The supreme court dismissed yesterday a bill in equity filed by Ralph s. Bartlett and other minority stockholders of the New York, New Haven & Hartford rail- road for permission to bring suit for $102, 100000 in the name of the cor corporation against directors who served from. 1904 to 1909 for alleged illegal expenditures in acquiring rail- roads, street railways and shipping enterprises in New England to stif1e competition.
 The case was before the court on an amended bill, the original com plaint having been dismissed because the plaintiffs did not prove that the corporation itself had failed to take action against the directors. In the amended bill the plaintiffs set forth that they had given the corporation an opportunity to act but that it had failed to do so. The court held that the amended bill was insufficient.

FUTURE ELECTRIC RAILWAY TO
 TRAVEL 300 MILES PER HOUR

rents which are set up in them, the phase of these Eddy currents being retarded by their seIf-induction. Hence if we have an electro-magnet excited by an alternative current, and if we hold lightly an aluminium ring just above the pole of the magnet, we find that the alternating magnetic field will react in the manner just describ- ed, and forcibly repulse the ring up- ward.
 Ogain, if the aluminium ring is held by four cords and the alternating cur rent passed through the magnet coil, the ring will remain floating in space above the magnet.
 In the Bachelet system of levitated locomotion there is involved a funda- mental disadvantage, which rapidly assumes alarming proportions when one comes to consider building com mercial railway of this type. This disadvantage lies in the fact that the cars, made of aluminium inductor plates mounted under them, are in tended to be levitated or raised into space, so as to eliminate mechanical friction between the cars and the track, by a continuous series of pow erful and expensive electro-magnets spaced evenly along the track and just below it.
 Mechanism Contained in Car.
 It does not require a great deal of calculating to arrive at the conclusion that 1t would cost a. small fortune to build such a railway, even if it were only a few miles in length, if 1t had to be equipped with such series of closely spaced. powerful electro-mag- net coils.
 As is we1l-known it is possible to arrange an electro-magnet of proper proportions between two horizontal aluminium plates, and when excited by an alternating current, it will be found that the reaction of the mag netic Aux set up will lift the magnet coil above the lower aluminium plate, and also cause the upper aluminium plate to be levitated, or raised above the coil
 Here is the germ of a revolutioniz- ing idea. viz., why not transpose the conditions in the Bachelet levitated railway system, and instead of lining the track with millions of dollars worth of electro magnets, simply place the levitated magnets within the car and construct the lower rail of properly spaced aluminium inducto1 sections? By this means it becomes more feasible to construct such levi tatef railway and a tvarious points along the railway suitable ring shaped solenoids or hollow tubular electro magnets are placed to propel or pull the car forward.
 Magnetic Switching Device.
 The ear would be propelled forward in a manner similar to that of Bache- let's, or by means of powerful cleo trio soienoids placed along the track The details of switching, etc.. are no' given, as there are several different ways in which this could be taken care of, but in some of the schemes developed in this direction the open ing and closing of the solenoid cir cults as the car progresses on it's way
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1917-05-04

is functioned or cared for by the movement of the car itself. In other words, the car, as it moves along, passes over a set of electrical con tacts placed between solenoid points, so that the so1enoid is de-energized, just as the car approaches it, the mo- mentum of the car carrying it forward owing to the powerful magnetic pull of the soienoid which had acted on the car a brief instant before. This is the principle upon which electro magnetic guns operate also.
 There is still another way to reduce the initial installation expense of such a railway system by placing the loco motion coils or electro magnets within the car, or rather on the car; these moving so1enoids to act on iron rings or armaturesI of suitable cross-section placed along the track. The current can be periodically switched on and off automatically, so as to act in the manner above described, whereby the electro-magnet coil would be de-ener- gized just at the instant when the mo- wing car is approaching the point of maximum magnetic pull. In any event this particular action simmers down to the point where what is required is a powerful electromagnetic pull be- tween an iron mass and the electro magnet.
 This all sounds very simple as we'll as impracticable, but system of this kind can be worked out, and has been tried out, in fact, in the laboratory by M. Bachelet and other inventors, with track systems having a length of i1,- 700 feet and more.
 Such a high speed subular electric railway system would have many ad- vantages over present day methods of transportation, and one of these is that the peculiar design of such a railway lends itself well to support on single row of steel towers and the elimination of local stops.
 While the hypothesis and ideals of Prof. Weinberg, as previously outlin- ed in box at the back of the ma other inventors and scientists, have often been rudely shattered by the more level-headed and slow-going in tellects of the day, it really. does not seem so rankly impractical to conjec- ture on the possibilities of such a high speed railway somewhat of the type here described A fortune awaits the man who is big enough for the job It wants another Tesla or Edison and he is bound to arrive sooner or later The Electrical Experimenter.
