STEAH MAY BE SUPERSEDED The Conduit System Contrasted With the Deadly Trolley. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS ge In the course of an interesting article in Harper's Weekly Mr. John Gilmer Speed considers the future development of elec- tricity as a propulsive power on railroads, and reviews its past and present uses in an it structive manner. Spexking of the great interest being taken in the subject by the tanagers of steam railroads, thetr experi- ments with various forms of the applied power, and the prospective line between Washington and Balt'more, to be run at a high rate of speed, Mr. Speed has this to say: “These things not only stimulate specula- tion as to what may happen in the early future, but show that the most intensely practical men in the industrial world have already recognized that the electric motor has reached a stage in its development when it is a rival to the steam locomotive in its own field. “And the recently made alliance between the Westinghouse Electric Company and the Baldwin Locomotive Works, the largest in the world, affords arother illustration of | @ recognition by practical experts that the time has come for the extension of elec- tricity in the business of transportation. This ts not an amalgamation of two com- panies, but an alliance by which each com- pany can avail itself of the plant and the patents and the experience of the other. Mr. D. L. Barnes, the consulting engineer for the two companies, says that the hither- to unsatisfactory results in electric loco- motives were frequently to be attributed to the lack of experience in practical rail- roading of the electricians who devised them. No establishment in the world is better prepared the Baldwin works to give practical expression to new ideas in ratl- road engines. It may therefore be taken for granted that the future motors for the Westinghouse alternating current will be ras nearly what they should be as possible. This alternating current, it is maintained, will enable those who use It to operate trains much farther away from the power .hovse than Is practicable at present on the trolley lines generally in use. Neither the managers of the Baldwin works nor those of the Westinghouse company are boasting or prophesying, but both express confidence that through the new alliance they will be able to meet all reasonable demands made upon them.” Conduit Systems for the Cities. Referring to these new developments in electric locomotives, the writer refers to the past events in the railroad world. “S!x years ago,” he remarks, ‘the trolley line built by Mr. Frank Sprague in Richmond, Va., had only been in operation a little over a year, and the electrical engineers were busy in their endeavors to find some method of applying electricity to street car traffic in such a way as to overcome the prejudices of the public. The economy of the overhead trolley system had been demonstrated to all, but the general public firm in the opinion that serious danger lurked in the overhead wires. Against the storage battery system, where each car carried its own propelling power in an ac- cumulator, there was no such prejudice. Indeed, this method of propelling street cars met with so much popular favor that cne of the arguments against giving street franchises to companies proposing to use overhead trolleys was that the develop- Ohio Company for the tunnel service is most interesting, and Mkely also to be in- structive. It is only proper to say, now- ever, that the action of this company in selecting electricity for this service was not prompted by considerations of economy, but was due to the fact that with the smoke and gas from ordinary engines the tunnel could not have been properly ventilated. “This tunnel is the longest soft-earth tun- nel in the world, as it is nearly a mile and a half from portal to portal. The ap- proaches make the distance on which the electric motors are used three miles. When the railroad company had concluded that good ventilation could only be secured by the adoption of electric motors, contract was entered into with the General Electric Company for three locomotives, the Gen- eral Hlectric Company guaranteeing that these locomotives would do the work satis- factorily. “In speaking of the successful tests on this tunnel line by means of the first of the locomotives delivered by the General Electric Company, Dr. Duncan, president of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, recently said: ‘There are in the United States a number of tunnels whose operation is anything but satisfactory at present which can be equipped as the Bal- timore tunnel is.’ ——“—.—__ FRIENDSHIPS OF ANIMALS, A Horse and a Hen, and a Dog, a Goose and a Lioness. From an Exchange. Why it is that animals have such a great dislike for solitude and have fits of loneli- ness when shut up by themselves away from any other living being is something no one has been able to explain. Yet it is the fact that all animals yearn for com- panionship, even animals that are wild and fierce. Remarkably strange and curious are the friendships animals form. Horses chum with cats, dogs with geese, and there are two capital storles, one of how a horse and a hen, the other of how a dog and a hen became fast companions. The horse and the hen happened to be the only occupants ef a large orchard, and got to know each other and seldcm were to be found apart. The hen’s favorite method of showing her friendship was to approach the horse with a cackle of joy and rus gently against his legs, the sagacious equine looking down upon her kindly and standing perfectly still in a well-satisfied manner as the feathered wings fluttered about his legs. In ore of the farms just over the border line of the annexed district a hen became so chummy with a valuable retriever that she actually laid her eggs and hatched her chickens in the dog's kennel, and the four- footed beist enjoyed it immensely. He would guard by the hour the eggs, and later the little chickens, and when he had occasion to go in and out of the house he would move with the greatest of care, so as not to disturb his feathered friend. Geese and dcegs are apt to be very fond of each other. There is a story of a goose that was rescued by a mastiff from the at- tack of a fox end was so grateful that it could not show the dog enough attention. It jeft all the other geese of the farmyard and stayed by the dog day and night, ac- companying him daily as he wandered over the farm. When the dog fell fll the goose never once left the kennel, and in its de- yetion it would have starved to death if a handful of corn had rot been brought. to it every day. The frieadship between the horse and the stable cat has been many times remarked, and it is well known that if for any the stable cat Is killed or taken aw: ee will get impatient and nervous over t. A remarkable case is on record of one of the derby favorites a few years ago, Gale- opsis, who some mcnths before the race got into a stat> of positive melancholia which was rapidly pulling him down. Vet- erinarians examined him and found that his trouble was purely a nervous one, brought about through excessive loneliness. Nothing could be done for him until a shrewd stable hand happened to suggest animal companionship. A gcat and a kid were introduced into the stable with great success, and the race horse picked up, so that on the day of the event he was able to make a fine showing. An eye witness of this de: ibes Galeop- of electric motors by the Baltimore andl AMONG THE CANUCKS A (anadian Resort’ Where Simplicity Reigns. ToD A Tiny Village With Attractive Sur- roundings—Good Times There. Correspondence of The Evening Star. NORTH HATLEY, Quebec, Canada, September 1, 1895. Given a map of Canada and -told in a general way where to look for this place, it is doubtful if you could find it, so small a space does it occupy commercially, yet it is not far from the center of civilization, lying on the sloping shores of picturesque little Lake Massawippi, but a short dis- tance north of the Vermont border, and cnly separated from Lake Memphramagog by the Massawippi range of mountains. It is brought into touch with the outside world by its two daily trains between the states and Canada. This tiny village, boasting a post office, general store, two churches and temper- ance hotel, whose host is a character, is at one end of the lake and also for a short distance on tiny Massawippi river. The Indian meaning of this word is “lake of the deep waters;” in parts its depth cannot be sounded. Its one straggling little street has houses of various shapes and sizes scattered along it at intervals, and across the bridge, which spans the river as it runs from the lake is Dreamland Park, with its summer house, swings and tables free to all comers and pleasure seekers. The hills slope in pretty curves and dells to the lake side. The various bays and inlets, va- ried by the wooded points of silver birch and sugar maple in all directions, make its waters very interesting and attractive for boating, the chief occupation and de- light of the summer resident. > North Hatley’s early settler was one eBaron, son of the hero of the much-read Nameless Nobleman, who, wandering from Plymouth, pitched here his tent and set up his household gods. His descend- ants, of the same name, form by far the largest portion of the present habitants. In the old graveyard, a couple of miles south, lie peacefully the remains of the carly fathers, with quaint inscriptions on the tombstones, some still legible. The genial bishop of Maryland has been sperding the summer here with his family, and much pleasure and profit have been derived by those fortunate enough to have heard him preach in the little church built chiefly by the efforts of Baltimore people. Small as this place is, it has been for sev- eral years the favorite summer camping ground, so to speak, of a number of New Yorkers, Baltimoreans and Washingtonians and by a few of the creme of Montreal society. Boating, bathing and driving are the favorite amusements, varied by al fresco high teas along the lake shore, bowling on days too windy or stormy to venture on the water, and private theatricals. Two enterprising Washington ladies, who have a charming cottage across the lake on a point of land which catches every bree have started a circulating Mbrary, a every morning, during the prescribed hour: Ss room r ables a club, so popular is a sort of starting place for everything. The beaux of Sherbrooke, the county town, nine miles north, have a fine canoe club house here. Last Saturday it was the scene of great excitement and gayety, as the first boat races ever attempted on Lake Massawippi were rowed under its auspices All the beauty and elite of Sherbrooke were present, the weather propitious, and the affair, beginning with a sailing race, folluwed by ladies’ canoe race, boat race, swimming match, hurry-scurry, ete.. were hotly contested. A “bonnet dance” in the evening, when the prizes were distributed, marked a most successful affair. The drives In all directions are fine, and so numerous that it is claimed one can take a different one daily for a month. A very popular one is entirely around the lake, a distance of twenty-two miles.

Alexander Rogers of the fourth cavalry and acting superintendent of the Yosemite National Park, has filed with the Secretary of the Interior his first an- nual report. Leaving the Presidio May 9 of this year troop K of the fourth cavalry, in command of Capt. Rogers, marched to the park, reaching there May 21. One of the first things done was to send notices to be put up in all the post offices anywhere near the park to warn ali possible tres- passers that the government authorities intended to protect the park without any trifling. Details under command of com- missioned officers were at once sent out to patrol the park. In the southeastern part of the park the snow melts early in spring and sheep men drive their flocks in there. Five herders were caught, their flocks driven out and the men admonished never to appear in the park aguin. The patrols now traverse the region so frequently that the sheep men stick close to the boundary, and if they come in over the line keep scouts out to warn them of the approach of troops, when they at once drive out. Three herders were caught in the southwest cor- ner of the park and warned off. In the northern part of the park 20,000 sheep were driven off and fifteen herders captured. The sheep country is extremely 1ough, and Capt, Rogers says special mention should be made of the effective scoiting done by Lieuts, Benson, McClure and Smed- berg, who have penetrated regions never before seen, and where the ground was so rough horses had to be abandoned. Much hardship is caused by the deep snows which make the high trails impassable until well on in summer. Lieutenant McClure has prepared an excellent topographical map cf the park, which is regarded as the most ac- curate yet produced. It will be photocraph- ed by the Interior Department. The few cattle in the park are there under leaves. Cattle do iittle injury, and the owners, as a rule, are Americans who take pride in pre- serving the park as it is. Two of the cattle men have withdrawn entirely from their leased land. Game in the park is increasing. It is not easy to catch people who shoot within the boundaries, but it is believed little destruc- tion of game is practiced by tourists or residents. The California fish commission has planted 30,000 eastern troat in the streams in the park this season, and a hatchery has been established there. The proposition to cut down the park alcng its southeastern boundary,as provided in a bill introduced in Congress by Mr, Caminetti, does not receive Capt. Rogers’ indorsemefft. There are mineral resources there, Lut there are also many natural beauties that should ciaim that the park shculd include them. The regulations governing the conduct of visitors have remained unchanged for twen- ty or more years. Capt. Rogers asks that they be amended so as to enable him to require that visitors leave all firearms, aps, nets and tackle outside the boun- daries. He also asks that penalties be fix- ed for trespassers. There are none now, and all that can be done is to expel any ore who commits any act of trespass or destruction, The greater number of tres- passers are Portuguese or Frenchmen of the lowest order of existence, and they are rough and lawless, showing no respect for a law that provides no penalty. A nder the influence of fear and force,” says Capt. Rogers, “they are as meek a lot of Villains as ever stole government grass, and the knowledge that a few of their kind had gone to prison for tres- passing on the park would keep most of them outside {ts borders.” The report urges a new and complete vey; suggests that signs and howidary S'be established, and indorses the sition that the government should ac- all lands within the park that have patented to individuals. —__—_—_o+___ Lincoln appointed Zenas Robbins. Guiteau, and Mr. Ramsdell's commission THE REINS OF OFFICE Mz, J. Nota McGill Installed as Register of Wills, He is the Twelfth of a List of Able Officials—Old Employes Retained. Mr. J. Nota McGill, whose appointment as register of wills was announced last Friday, appeared at the city hall this morning, and, after taking the oath of office before Judge Cox, relicved Col. Levi P. Wright, the retiring register, who has held the office since September 1, 1890. There was no ceremony attending the transfer of the office, the new register merely exhibiting to his predecessor his commission, a certified copy of the oath of office and his bond of $5,000, approved by Chief Justice Bingham of the District Supreme Court. Then the formal transfer of the office and its records took place, Col. Wright warmly congratulating his successor and wishing him all success, and Mr. McGill, in returning his thanks, high- ly complimented Col. Wright upon the suc- cess he had attained in the conduct of the office. The first official act of Register Mc- Gill was the reappointment of Dr. Michael J. Griffith as his deputy. In conversation with a Star reporter Mr. McGill stated that he would devote the day and probably many more in familiariz- ing himself with the affairs of the office and in becoming acquainted with his em- ployes. He at the present time contem- plated making no changes in the personnel of the office, and did not now know that he would make any. Mr. McGill said he wish- ed to thank The Star for its kind expres- sions, and all others who had spoken kind- ly of his, appointment, and remarked that he would endeavor to so perform his duties as to merit a continuance of such kindly expressions, and would be glad to receive any suggestion which would tend to make his administration of the office all that it should be. The Twelfth Register. Mr. McGill Is the twelfth register of wills the District has seen. The. first one was Jchn Hewitt, who was appointed by Presi- Gent Jefferson in April, 1801. He served until his death, in July, 1818, when he was Succeeded by John B. Blake, who was ap- pointed in July, 1818, by President Monroe. He dicd in August, 1819, when Henry C. Neale was appointed by President Monroe. Mr. Neale held the office until his death, in April, 1836, when Edvard N. Roach was appointed by President Jackson. October, 186i, President Lincoln appointed Mos Kelly as Mr. Roach’s successor, but he fail- ed_ of confirmation, although he held the office until August 7, 1862,2when President 2 Mr. Rob- bins continued in office until November 1868, when President Johnson appointe James R.

This was the very day that President Garfield was shot down by said to have been the very last one signed by him. Fees and Saluries. Until the removal of Col. Webster the of- fice of register of wills was understood to be held during the good behavior of the occupant of it, and it is said that Col. Web- ster was on the point of contesting the right of the President to remove him without cause, when he was informed by his coun- sel that under the tenure of office act the register held office during the pleasure of the President.
