Fender to Protect Pedestrians.

From the Popular Science Monthly.
If the plans of a wildly imaginative
Texan inventor go through. all motor
vehicles viii soon be equipped with a
huge rubber ball. projecting out in
front. And its purpose? Oh it Just
gently bumps the careless pedestrian
instead of knocking him senseless or
dead. What matters it that the ball
will be more than yard in diameter
when puffed out to its capacity?
OF course, you think that the rubber
ball safety guard bounces the careless
pedestrian to one side. allowing the
automobile to proceed on its way. You
are wrong. 1t is intended to envelop
the victim in its folds. But that is not
all 1t applies the brake automatically
when careless man sinks in its eN
panse This is accomplished by means
of a compressed air Arrangement.

Meerschaum as Building Material.

From, the Popular Science Monthly.
Even the most esthetically inclined
of our American millionaires would
hardly consider the luxury of living In
residence built of meerschaum as
within the range of their fortunes, yet
there are many unpretentious houses
of this material in the Spanish town of
Vallecas near Madrid. where a coarse
variety of this substance may be found.
Oddly enough just across the straits
are the Moroccans. who have discovered
that still another variety of meer-
schaum lathers freely and makes a good
substitute for the ordinary toilet soap.

Lives on Appian Way.

In 1908 he was transferred to the
monastery of st. Sebastian Basilica on
the Appian way. where the catacombs
of the first Christians are located. This
was his opportunity. At last he was
on the right spot. He was living among
the old memories so dear to his heart,
on grounds which still held their own
secret.
This secret Fra Damiano was bent
on finding out. He knew, as every
body knows. about the discussion as
to the dwelling of st. Peter and st.
Paul in Rome; and although archeolo-
gists have already settled the question
he wanted to find new proofs. Spurred
by this aim he started to work. Every
day he went out with his pick, touch
ing the ground here and there.
Wherever he heard a hollow sound he
dug more deeply. Day after day he
worked necessarily without any prac
tical result. Finally, Unexpectedly, he
struck a wall. and on removing the
earth a glimpse of color met his joyful
eyes. 1t was a catacomb of the second
century A d, decorated IN the purest
baroque style. looking like Bernini's
work of the seventeenth century. Fra
Damiano reported the discovery to the
Italian government, which took up the
work of excavation. Today the results
reached are beyond all expectations.
Nearly thirty feet below the catacomb
lie the rooms of ID first century Roman
villa with the most beautiful panel dec
orations. On one wall seashore re-
sort is painted with Its lighthouses
stretching into the sea, sailboats and
people lying on the sand wrapped in
their bath robes. Others are dining
under the shade of u tent spread from
one tree to another. All these pictures
are as fresh as if painted yesterday.
On other walls there are most beau
fiful Pompeiian decorations. Christian
monuments also have been uncovered,
which. to the great joy of Fra Damiano.
corroborate the Christian tradition of
ST. Peter dwelling in Rome. These are
engraved stones of the second and
fourth centuries A. D.. on which the
words "Domus Petri' (the house of
Peter) and prayers of st. Paul and st.
Peter are written. Beautiful coffins
have also been brought to light which
contain embalmed bodies ma agniicently
dresEed and having threads of pure gold
entangled in the hair.
Ali this has been found in these few
last years and only through the love for
old things by Il monk who never dream
ed that such future could be in store
for HIM.
Conscription did not lay its grip on
Fra Damiano who today is living
among his discoveries, hoping to find
still more of them. for, as he says. 'The
soil never having been touched, none
can say what it holds in its depthA"

ROME. Italy. August 20. While
wars tremendous tragedy is annihilat-'
ing human life and destroying the best
samples of medieval architecture, a.
Franciscan brother in Rome has
brought to life frescoes and pagan
fombs of the first, second and fourth
centuries A. D.
This brother. Fra Damiano. is a Sar-
t;inian. His parents are very simple
people, who live in the island, cultivat-
ing their land. After having been re-
ceived into the order the son was sent
10 Corsica and thence in 1901 TO the
convent of SAINT Antonio in Rome.
When Fra Damiano arrived in Rome
his mind and soul awakened a once to
the beauty of art and Christianity. of
which the city is full. In his leisure
hours he tramped all over the old city
and the campagna, drinking in the
spirit of ancient times. Nothing ap-
pealed more TO him than the ruins.
His greatest ambition was to dig and
bring to light treasures hidden in the
earth

Old Form Will Never Be In

Trenton, N. j., Oct. 25, 1917.
Mr.. Charles T. Logan,
The Palisadian.
Dear Mr.. Logan:
Replying to yours of the Gath,
would state that Commission Govern
ment in Trenton is very favorably
looked upon by everyone. It has re-
suited in a more businesslike admins
tration, LESS POLITICS, and the
general opinion would be that Com
mission Government is working along
better, giving better service and eff
cheney returns in money invested in
city government than ever before.
Trenton would NEVER go back to
the old form. The commission form
of government supplies the BEST
METHOD of city government yet
evolved.
Very truly yours,
Trenton Times,
