I AUTUMN IN MARYLAND Writer Tells oT Late Autumn 8c':ue« in that State* There is an incomparable beauty in these autumn days, a mellowness and ripeness like a reflection from the heavily laden orchards, which can be seen at no other time of the year. The nip and eagerness in the morning air sends the blood coursing through the veins as though under the stimulous of old wine. There is life and buoy ancy in every breath. The sun shines warmly through an atmosphere of tinted crystal, and with deft touches brings into life the slumbering beau ties of the autumn woods. Banners of gold and crimson and maroon hang gracefully on the swaying branches bright and splendid against the green background. Slowly, as if to mark the passing of the enehantlDg mo ments. nuts drop one by one from the trees and the echo of their striking re sounds through the quiet woodlands. The stream is just a little clearer and its music on its pebbly bed a little sweeter in these autumn days. The ripening season comes slowly on. Jack Frost is just severe enough to help old Sol in spreading his incom parable decorations, and not keen enough to wither the foliage and leave the trees bare and dreary—the melan choly autumn scene of the more north ern poet. The days of this splendid period in Baltimore and the surround ing country run into weeks and the weeks into months. It begins while September tarries still, and the magic of the season has not been dispelled until late November days. There are no clearer skies than those of Mary land, no brighter sun, no foliage which responds more generously to nature’s autumn brush.—Baltimore News. APPARATUS TO BRAKE SHIPS. A Montrealer’s Invention to Check Ves sels Going: at Full Speed. A contrivance for stopping ocean vessels while going at normal speed, has been on view in the Board of Trade during this week. It is an in vention of Mr. Louis Lacoste, chief justice of the court of appeals, who has patented it. The apparatus, of which Mr. Lacoste exhibited models in a tank, consists of one or more pairs of doors, attached to each side of a ship, which can be opened by steam, electricity or compressed air. The doors are fitted with hinges and iron bars, and offer a strong resistance to the water, and stopping the vessel within a few hundred feet and without any sudden shock. By opening only one door the ship can be brought around much quicker, than can be done by her rudder only. The inven tion. which has been submitted to the British admiralty, has been viewed by a large number or the shipping and commercial men of Montreal, who were rrest favorably Impressed by it. Mr. Geo. W. Noll, chief engineer of her majesty’s ship Tribune, has written to Mr. Louis Lacoste in regard to the device that, after seeing the models, he believes it to be practicable on the lines shown, and to be a great factor of safety. Mr. John H. Glass, engineer of the Allan liner Tunisian, goes further even than Mr. Noll, pro nouncing the brake absolutely efficient and calculated to stop a seagoing steamer going at full speed within her own length. Less technical opinion has been also favorably impressed with Mr. Lacoste's device.—Montreal (Que.) Gazette. French Mining In England. A French syndicate has been form ed for the purpose of mining iron and coal in the vicinity of Dover, England. Extensive mining rights have been acquired in the Alkham Valley, in the south of Kent, and not far distant from Dover. The boring is to be un dertaken by French laborers under the supervision of skilled engineers from the Pas de Calais. A new dia mond drill is being erected for the work. Kent is very rich in iron ore, and at ono time was the principal iron producing district in England. At various parts of the country may be seen closed iron mines. The reason for their abandonment was the scarc ity of coal, but at Dover and at other places rich seams of coal have been discovered beneath the iron ore strata, so tlfat there is every possibility of the iron mining industry in this part of England being revived. Walking Match oil Shipboard. A feature of tho voyage of the steamer Coptic, from China to San Francisco, was a five-day walking match. Sixteen of the passengers en tered the competition. The deck was measured and from 6 o’clock in the morning until 6 o’clock In the evening the contestants walked encouraged by the plaudits of more sedentary pas sengers, who drew up their deck chairs close to the space allotted to the walkers and watched the match. Lieutenant Heinrich of the German army was the winner, walking 128 miles. A. J. Flaherty of the Pekin consular cadets was second with a score of 116 miles. Still Adducing. The fashion of wearing fobs or hand some black watered ribbons, with an engraved jewel or signet ring attached, has heretofore been exclusively a masculine one. This summer we see young girls and young women wearing the same dignified ornaments. On lit tle girls the use of fob chains looks rather odd, because you never see a boy wearing one; fobs and fob-chain jewels are a prerogative of adults. Seal rings are not wrnrn by children for various reasons, but any young woman may wear one with perfect propriety, provided she does uot usurp the right of bearing arms.—PhUnrt*lni?i.-__r2_L i atponizG t£em and you Will not f®t boat. •> •> •> v MRS.
