Crystal is a phrenOlOgist and palm

When questioned about this new

This is just another example Of the
effort which the management Of q

best available, is not sufficient. Even
the entertainment furnished by a
dance orchestra does not fill the de-
mand of the dancing public. They
are looking for amusement and eX-

NEW YORK, April 15.-AS clocks
punched by watchmen indicate that
the rounds have been made at the
right times, so the Photograph, a
new instrument used on railway
locomotives, tells whether the engi-
neer properly has driven his iron
horse over the run.
. Did he exceed the safe speed try
ing to make up time? Were the
curves taken too fast? Were delays
the fault of the time allowance,
roadbed or rolling stock? What was
the average speed for the run?
These are some of the questions
answered by the tell-tale tacto-
graph
The instrument is mounted in the
cab of the engine and is geared to
the axle similar to an automobile
Speedometer, the American Machin-
ist explains. Speed at any time,
