Proposition for Construction of Sya- tem in the Isl with Favor, The proposed construction of a system about 600 miles in all, is warmly indorsed of railroads in the Philippine islands, by Secretary Hoot, who believes this step will do more to civilize the territory and wipe out insurrections than regiments of soldiers, The building of raiiroads in Cuba has eliminated the prospects of dis- turbances, and it is believed the same rule would apply in the Philippines. It is proposed to build a line from Manila north through Luzon to the har- bor at the northernmost end of the island. Another projected line is a branch from this north and south line over the mountains to the eastern coast, Another proposed line is from Manila south to Batangas. It has been sub- gested also that a line be constructed along the west coast of Luzon from Da- gupan, the present terminus of the Manila and Dagupan road, to the north end of the island. The propositions which have been con- sidered by the secretary of war and the governor of the Philippines contemplate aid by the Philippine government in the An extr2ordinary step in the artificial incubation of eggs is the resultof some upon the solemn function known BB been exhibiting in London an electric when it is remembered that the years of labor on the part of E.

Itis believed that a grarantee of the interest on the amount of the cost of the roads, in case the roads prove unable to pay such interest out of the earnings, will be sufficient to induce capital to invest ip the different enterprises. The Philip- pine government could not make grants of lands to aid in the construction of the roads, but it could grant rights of ways. It has been determined that the Philip- pine government has the authority to guarantee the interest on the railroad bonds, the payment of interest if made to constitute a lien on the railroad prop- erty. Warns Man Who Had Adopted It of a Barglar’s Presence in the House, es W. H. Farrel, of Shamokin, Pa, Picked up a little half-starved dog near his home, and he adopted the dox. The other night the dog, while in the kitchen, heard someone open a dining room window shutter and crawl into the house. The dog ran upstairs and, leaping on Farrel’s bed, awoke him by crawling over his face and barking. Farrel, hearing footsteps downstairs, Picked up a revolver and started to in- vestigate. He discovered a burglar col- lecting silverware, but before Farrel could shoot the intruder escaped with a small part of the valuables he had gathered. OPENED EYES JUST IN TIME, ELECTRICITY BRINGS LIFE. Physician of Exsex, Ont., Reports Re- markable Experiment on Baby Seemingly Born Dead. A remarkable experiment in science was made by Dr. James Brien, an old practitioner of Essex, Ont., recently, when, by means of elecaricity, he was successful, he says, in restoring life to a child that apparently had been born dead. “My partner, Dr. Boyle, and myself noticed immediately after birth a slight pulsation in the form of the infant,” he said, “but it gradually grew fainter and fainter until not a sign of life re- mained. In the meantime we had re- sorted to all the known methods of sci- ence. It occurred to me to have a test of electricity. It was fully 15 minutes after birth before the first electric cur- rent was employed. After 15 minutes’ application of the current the infant showed signs of returning life. We in- creased the current persistently and in ten minutes more time were rewarded in seeing the child breathing and the heart beating normally.” Connectient Woman Revives After Having Been Pronounced Dead by Her Friends. Miss Mary Rock, of New Haven, Conn., aged 45 years, was recently pronounced dead by her friends with whom she had been staying. She had been ill fora num- ber of months with pulmonary trouble, and was suddenly seized with a fainting spell, and those at her side said she had stopped breathing. Coroner Eli Mix was notified of the sudden death, and he or- dered the medical examiner, Dr. Gus- tavus Eliot, to investigate the case. The police were also informed that she was dead. Word was about to be sent to an undertaker to come to the house and prepare the bady for burial, when Miss Rock opened her eyes. Loses Power of Speech. Bernard Cohen, 12 years old, who was recently discharged from a New York hospital, where he had been hovering between life and death for five weeks, has lost his memory and power of speech. The doctors say he Has a Charch on His Hands, Michael Glita, a mill employe of Passaic, N. J., has a church on his hands, which he won recently at a raf- fle.
