British Railroad Officials Said to Have
Made Considerable Success
of the System.

Many ingenious brains have busted
themselves with the problem of con-
trolling railway traffic since the (pos-
sibly mythicaD porter laid foundation
of modern signaling by attaching a
cord to ''semaphore" so that he could
operate it from a distance. But moth
ing is more ingenious than the system
whereby handful of men in tele-
phone room can direct train movements
over the whole of a main line. Control
of this type is now daily feature OF
British railway traffic, although not
one passenger in 10000 has ever heard
of the system, says the London Daily
Mail.
It's most perfected form is to be seen
at the new control office" at York, on
the London & Northwestern, where the
whole of the immensely heavy passen
ger and goods traffic in the congested
area, from Doncaster TO Newcastle is
directed from a single room.
The keystone of the fabric is huge

room. which shows every station, sig

the whole main line.
Ten electrically worked endless
belts. half each for "up" and down
traffic move across the face of this
diagram, and these belts operate al
different speeds in accordance with
the average movements of the various
classes of train.
Directly a train is under way the

CHARACTER TELLS
THE STORYl

People throughout this country ara
giving more thought to hygiene and to
the purity of remedies on the market,
but no one doubts the purity of Doctor
Pierce's vegetable medicines, for they
have been so favorably known for over
fifty years that everyone knows they ara
just what they are claimed to be. These
medicines are the result of long research
by well known physician, R V. Pierce,
M. D., who compounded them from
health giving herbs and roots long used
in sickness by the Indians. DIR. Pierce's
reputation as leading and honored
citizen of Buffalo, is sufficient guaran-
tee for the purity of that splendid tonic
and blood purifier, the Golden Medical
Discovery, and the equally fine nerve
tonic and system builder for women's

Agrarians Are
Overthrow by
Bulgarian Army
Premier Stamboulisky Is Pris.
oner and New Cabinet in
Control-No Blood
shed Reported.

Sofia, Bulgaria, June 3. - The
agrarian cabinet, headed by Premier
Stamboulsky. was overthrown early
this morning, the plot being carried
out by reserve officers with the assist
ance of theactive army.
Although there was no bloodshed.
the new regime proclaimed a state
of siege and issued a proclamation to
the nation saying:
Bulgarian liberty dawns again.
The regime of deceit, violence and
murder has collapsed under the
weight of its crimes, and new era
of law. harmony and peace has ar
rived"
Professor Zankof with Professor
Meletiff. rector of the University of
Sofia, took an active part in eonsti-
tuting a new ministry which is ac-
credited with the intention of aban-
doning the legal proceedings carried
out by the agrarian party against
former cabinet ministers.
Premier Stamboulisky, who has
been living in semi-retirement in his
native village of Slavonitz, returned
to Sofia last night. On his arrival
at the station he found troops drawn
up and he was received in silence.
When the premier asked for an ex-
PLANTATION, the officers ignored the
question. He then tried to telephone
to police headquarters to obtain an
explanation. but discovered the wires
had been cut. Then he understood
he was a prisoner.
The coup was carried out with
military precision, members of the
reserve officers organization and
units of the active army surrounded
parliament house and arrested the
ministers and deputies. while those
ministers who were absent were ar
rested later at their homes. Among
those arrested were the members of
a powerful organization known as the
yellow guard and alleged to be
staunch supporters of NJ. Stambou-
lisky.
All the frontiers are closed and no
trains are permitted to leave the cap
ital. The military league. which led
the movement, issued a statement
denying. rumors of a general mobiliza-
ton. 1t said calm prevailed among
the population, making such a step
unnecessary.
The premiership of the new gov
ernment has been left vacant for the
present, and the ministry of agricul-
ture also has been left open.

.U.S.Warned
to Enforce
Prohibition
Mayor Hylan Refuses to Have
Buck Passed to City Police
Says People Tired of
Being "Hornswoggled." +
Attacks Dry Workers

New York June 9.-Mayor HyIan,
who recently pledged city support to
the enforcement of theL yolstead law.
told Federal Prohibition Director
Garfield, in a letter Tonight, all liquor
would be stopped al the port of entry
and that enforcement was up TO gov.
ernment officials.
Enforcement of the Yolstead act
is your job in this locality said the
mayors letter. and you should go at
it honestly. Do not try to shift the
burden On the shoulders of anybody
else. Do not rip open the feather beds
and let the feathers be strewn TO the
seven winds and then expect the peace
officers to go and gather in the feath-
ers. Keep the feather beds intact. Stop
the liquor from coming in at the port
Of entry. so that the peace officers Of
any locality will not have to go for
the little violator. Get the hootch and
rum runners. The people Of this
country are sick and tired of being
humbu2ged. They have been horn
swoggled' more on ithe enforcement
Of this law than on any other law
that ever was placed on the federal
statute books"
Attacks Dry Workers.
Mayor Hylan launched a bitter at.
tack on William II. Anderson. state
superintendent Of the Anti Saloon
league. declaring IL ne and a few
others of his kind who. Of course. need
he salary which they derive from con-
tribntions paid in by well-lntentioned
people" would give their aid 10 the
federal authorities in stopping liquor
at its source. the people would get an
honest enforcement Of the volstead
act.
But OF course. said the letter.
we realize that II liquor was stop
ped az the port Of entry and we had
an honest enforcement. there would
be no more contributions into the
Golfers of these private organizations
and Anderson and few others of
his Tx would not be continued longer
on the payrolis. Consequently, il
may be advantageous 10 allow liquor
