More than a few citizens, hearing of the Mayor's generous, offer of the first chance for a city appointment to a certain well! known resident of Prince Rupert, are charmed by Mr. Newton's | winsome way of forgetting old scores and seeking to do good to one whom once through his peper he despitefully used. In his latest horticultural role as pruner of olive trees and distrib- uter of their branches, not to mention his notable botanical dis- covery regarding the last rose of summer, the Mayor is likely to make many friends and give a good deal of innocent amusement. THE CHURCH AND THE LABOR PROBLEM. “Had the churches played their part in making us vitally conscious that all our opporiunities and talents and possessions should be regarded as a trust, to be utilized not for our own ends, but for the benefit of the community, we should never have heard of labor unrest. “It is because we have forgotten our trust that labor rises and says to us: ‘If neither love nor justice can induce you to share the good things of the world with your co-workers on fair terms, we who have suffered for generations must demand our share by force.’ —Mr. Seebohm Rowntree. A SUMMER ARGUMENT. There are certain problems, particularly associated with hot weather, which are puzzling many these days. For instance, the straw hat really cooler than an ordinary hat, or is it merely the hotter weather which makes the straw hat wearer suffer is more? There is room for a nice scientific enquiry into this point. It is conceded that the straw hat blows off the head easier. Ergo, it must be jammed down harder on the head. Ergo, the ventilation is less, and the pressure of the sweat band creates a discomfort which is unknown except when wearing a] hard hat with half a gale of wind striking the forehead Then is a straw hat really cooler? THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS. The whole trend of human experience shows that there is no such thing as happiness as a right; that, in the individual, the pursuit of happiness as an end is disastrous, and that people who spend their lives searching for happiness do not find it. If that is true for the individual it is true for the state. If we follow happiness we can never overtake it; but if we go our way there is a chance that we may meet it on the road. That is not an individual opinion; it is the teaching of human experience. By steadfastly pursuing il one may attain a certain peace of mind; but happiness, never. IS INVENTED IN GT.

The guard's coach on the train is fitted with a coil framework whence electricily emanates, connecting with the buried = wire. The signal is picked up from either the wire or the train by a “detector” and automatically magnified, so that it is capable of operating a bell, hooter or éven a brake, In the guard’s van are several electric “solenoids,” erected on a marble slab, whieh are entirely automatic When the detector operates, of these rings a hooter, while another is used for pulling a lever in the van which puts on the brakes and stops the train. On the other hand, the train can signal from station to siation, sending out a Current which Operates alarm bells and lamps. that all is right, but if any trouble occurs it goes up at the exact moment of the incident and re- mains in a position of danger. Collisions Impossible. An outstanding feature of the invention is the extreme delicacy of the deteetor, which can be tuned to any piteh and only re- spond to a similarly tuned in- strument, For instance, one tuned to 100 frequencies (vibra- tions) per second would not re- spond to others of even 95 or 105 frequencies. Moreover, the detector is tunable to such an extent that the signalman can distinguish between goods, slow passenger and fast trains, It is impossible for two trains to collide in the same section, If one gets in legitimately it is all right, but if a seeond runs over the bloek both trains are auto. matically stopped, The experiments are being earried on over a ten mile streteh of the Stratford & Midland Junc- tion Railway between Stratford and Kineton, and so far have proved a striking suecess. one Use of Detector. lf the signalman forgets to pull back a lever after a train has passed from one block section into another, this omission is automatically rectified by the current, If the train over runs a signal at danger it will be auto- matically stopped, and will not be ble to proceed until a seal has Best room in town at Savoy.
