DARING RAILROAD PROPOSITION. PAY ' ROITE OF TIIK RAILROAD TO KKT WEST. The sort of railroading which appeals to the public mind, by reason of its daring and by the new problems which It often presents to the engineer. Is that through mountain regions, but It baa remained for Henry XI. Flagler, who has been termed "The Wlurd of Ftortda." to take In hand soma rail way construction which Is not only unique, but daring to the last degree. This task Is the extension of his Florida East Coast Railway, which has for some years been In operation between St. Augnattn and Miami, 154 miles southwestward and northwestward from tbt latter point to the Important Isl and of Key West. The construction of the extension la proceeding rapidly. The road will traverse for a considerable distance a ridge or slight eleva tion of aalltlc limestone, and passing beyond thla will reach aand, the man grove, that strange tree which reaches Its roots downward Into the water from the limbs above being for a long distance the principal vegetation. Then the road will strike considerable stretches of water, more or less shal low, but always the foundation will be one of the finest and most sub stantial Imaginable, namely, coral rock. The construction will be of the most expensive and durable character, and everything will make for absolute safety. The first survey was (or a line to Cape Sable, but when this was made Mr. Flagler found that he waa sixty miles from Key West and twelve miles from what la known as the three fathom Une of the gulf. He therefore decided to undertake the greater prop osition, and so changed the Una from Homestead and la building more nearly along what may be called the general line of the coast In a scenic way this road will be notable. The views It will give of those beautiful southern waters, with all their tenderness of tint, with the scores of "keys" or Islands and Inlets, great and small, will make It like a voyage In wonderland. The Une will pass from key to key. and the first deep water it will strike will be at what la known as Knight's Key, where there will be a channel thirteen feet In depth. Several drawbridges will be constructed, some for the use of the small veasels which are engaged In the sponge fisheries, the seat of the sponge trade being Key West VOpU 1 ence Or.

BEALL & CO. 321 Hawthorne Ave. Portland, Ore. 1 The manufacturers of Lancashire, England, are greatly Interested In a new spining mill of W.000 spindles, which la to be both lighted and ope rated entirely by electricity. The cur rent is taken from the mains of a power company. This Is the first es tablishment of the kind In England, but there are many mills so operated In this country. Attention is called In the Technical World to the fact that the Introduction of the vacuum-tube light baa brought Into existence a new trade that of "glass plumbing." The glass tubes. In which the light is produced by an elec tric current Sowing through a gaseous conductor, are an inch and three-qua ters In diameter, and are put up in lengths of about eight and a half feet and hermetically aealed III situ. For the purpose of this work a new set of glass-blower's Instruments has been devised, including cutting tools, blow ers and hand torches, and experta per form the necessary operations with surprising rapidity. Recent experiments In the Depart ment of Agriculture bars shown that the former idea that bacteria in gen eral are not harmed by freezing la un tenable. On the other hand, the ef fect of rery low temperatures has been greatly overestimated. Messrs. Smith and Swingle have observed as destruc tive effects upon bacterial life from the temperature of salt and pounded Ice aa from that of liquid air. The critical point aprjears to be somewhere sbout the freezing-point of water. An organism which can pass this point In safety may be proof even against abso lute zero. A few Individual bacteria in every culture tried were able to en dure unharmed the temperature of ; liquid air. This Is believed to be due 1 to the absence of water In the cells. Where the Great Northern railway , skirts the shore of Puget Sound, the State of Washington, traffic 4 sometimes Interrupted by slides from j steep sand and gravel banks, which ; cover the tracks. Formerly these accl denta caused vexatious delays while I gangs of men slowly shoveled off the i obstruction; but the principle of dy- (dranllc mining, so well known In the Vt est, suggested a more expeditious method of opening up the road. A steam pump attached to heavy hose now takes the place of the ahovelers when a slide Is to be removed, and the skilfully directed stream of water rapidly washes off the sand and earth, and leaves the track free. Of course care must be taken not to undermine the roadbed, but this difficulty seems to have been avoided. THE DR. C. 6EE WO CHINESE MEDICINE CO.

Mr. Takahlra la not of the titled class be baa risen from the ranks. Entering the Imperial diplomatic serv ice In 1876, after a thorough educa tion at the Japanese capital, he was appointed attache to the Japanese le gation In Washington, becoming sec retary of that legation In 1881. Two years later be was appointed secre tary of the Foreign office. Later, be held a number of Important posts, in cluding those of charge d'affatrea In Core (1889), consul general at New York (1891), mlnlater realdent to Hol land (1892). mlnlater to Italy (1K94). minister to Austria (1S96), vice minis ter for foreign affairs (1899) and vice minister to the United Stat (1900).

Tact ful and diplomatic, a dignified diplo mat through and through. Mr. Taka hlra has creditably represented Jap anese Interests throughout the present difficult period of the war. He baa only courageous expressions of appre ciation for the admirable qualities of the Russian people, wbom he onder stands thoroughly. He does not look for peace In the near future, but aays that Japan la quit ready and pre pared to continue the conflict as long aa may be necessary. As to tbe pos sibility which has been auggeated of a Russo-Japanese alliance after peace has been concluded, Mr. Takahlra de clares thla ean never be. The Japan ese people, he points out. have been educated, politically, along Anglo-Saxon lines, and It would be very difficult to change thla national bent A Franco-Russian alliance might be possible. but a Busso-Jspanese alliance never. aaaaaaaaaaaawa Humorous Teeth Not Bones at AIL Professor E. 8ymes Tbomoson Oresham professor of medicine.
