NeU Device For
Planes To Land
On Ships Deck

WASHINGTON, ID. c., July 90
Perfection of a device to enable an
airplane going 60 miles an hour to
land on the deck of a ship was an
nounced today by the Navy Depart
ment. The device. which it is claimed
will permit the landing of any type
of airplane used in the navy, is equip
ped with landing gear which works
on a number of wires placed across
the deck of the ship and held down
with weights. Hooks descending from
the bottom of the plane engage the
wires.
The increasing amount of weight as
serts a breaking effect on the speed
of the plane. In one of the expert
ments a small plane was brought to
stop within a range Of 38 feet.

when, in company with Edwin Friese.
resident engineer, he made his weekly
inspection of the bridge yesterday.
The work has been progressing sat-
isfactorily, according to Mr.. Mackall,
and the reports show that the bridge
is 20 per cent. completed, and this 20
per cent. has been the most difficult
part of the work, being all under wa

Explains Operation.
According TO him, circulating
rump which supplies cold water to
the condenser, failed to operate prop-

hot steam. losing the vacuum which
ordinarily is kept there when the ma

Use OF 120-volt bulbs for lighting

families he said, use the 110-volt lamp
which is too low a rating for the Rich

fail to give the service to which the

CONSIDER ABOLITION
OF SHERIFF'S OFFICE
tBy Associated Press)


TORONTO, Jan. 31.-Ontario is con-
sidering abolition of the office OF
sheriff. one of the oldest known to
English law, but now described by the
provincial public service commission
as nothing but a glorified bailiff."
Originally the office of sheriff in
England carried with it wide powers
such as the trial of criminal and civil
cases and the assessment and collec
ton of taxes and is still an honorary
position much sought
In Ontario the office was created
for police duties, but its powers have
dwindled until now the sheriff's sole
Official functions are appearing at the
opening of the AssiZes court in official
dress including cooked hat and drawn
sword, the hanging of murderers, and
the serving of few legal papers.
No sheriff in Ontario, however, has
actually hung a man in century, that
unpleasant duty being performed by q
paid hangsman, who travels from pro
vince to province shipping his gallows
and setting it up where it is needed
As to the appearance of the sheriff
at the opening of Assizes court, the
commissions report says:
mo sheriff should be allowed to ar
ray himself in this fashion. 1t puts
him to large expense and instead oi
adding to the dignity of the court il
provokes mirth.''
One proposal advanced by the com
mission is to combine the offices o.
sheriff, high constable and jailer.
