THE AUTOMOBILE LAW.
tringent Legislation that Will go
Into Effect Jan. 1st, 1906.
The Legislature of 1905 passed an
‘ct, effective January 1st, 1908, pro-
hibiting the operation within the bor-
ders of this Commonwealth of any mo-
tor-vehicle unless the operator thereof
shall have procured a license from the
State Highway Department of Penn-
sylvania. The Deputy Attorney Gen-
eral has rendered an opinion which
holds that the Act of 1905 supersedes
and repeals the Act of 1903, and con-
stitutes the nw of the State upon the
subject.
Ir compliance with the Act the State
Highway Department is prepared to
furnish licenses to operate motor-ve-
hicles and the necessary license num-
ber tags. Attention is called to the
following regulations established by
the Department, in which are summar-
ized the more important features of the
Act, in accordance with the before-
mentioned opinion rendered by the
Deputy Attorney General.
MOTOR-VEHICLE REGULATIONS.
1. No motor-vehicle can be operated
within the limits of the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania unless the operator
thereof has secured a license from the
State Highway Department.
2. The Act applies alike to every
“city, borough, county or township in
this Commonwealth.”
38. The Act applies alike to operators
of all forms of moter-vehicles, includ-
ing so-called “motor-cycles.”
4 The operator—not the vehicle—is
licensed. .
5. Every license expires on the
thirty-first day, of December of the
year in which it was issued.
8. Application for license must be
made upon blank furnished for the
purpose bp the Department.
7. License fee of three dollars ($3.00)
must accompany the application. Re-
mittance must be made by Draft, or
Postoffice or Express Money Order.
Money enclosed in application is at
sender’s risk.
8. A license issued toone person can
not be used by another person. If
more than one person desires to oper-
ate the same motor-vehicle, each such
person must obtain a license.
9. The license is not effective until
the two license number tags furnished
by the State Highway Department
have been posted upon the front and
back of the vehicle.
10. The license must be carried by
the operator when using the motbr-ve-
hiele, and must be exhibited when re-
quired by any constable or police. of-
ficer.
11. All tags bearing license numbers,
except the two furnished by the State
Highway Department, must be remov-
ed from all motor-vehicles while they
are being operated within the limits of
this Commonwealth. Not more than
one State license number shall be car-
ried upon a motor-vehicle at one time.
12. The rear license tag must be il-
luminated one hour after sunset so
that the number will be plainly dis-
tinguishable.
18. / At least one fixed white. light
must be carried, visible in the direc-
tion the machine is proceeding. One
red light must be carried, visible in the
reverse direction.
14. Every motor-vehicle must be
provided with gopd and sufficient brake
or brakes. :
15. Every motor-vehicle must be
provided with bell, horn or other signal
device, which must be sounded when
approaching road or street corners.
16. The operator of any motor-vehi-
cle must stop whenever signaled to do
go by the driver of any horse or other
animal.
17. The rate of speed in cities or bor-
oughs must not exceed one mile in six
minutes ; outside of cities or boroughs
one mile in three minutes. Townships
of the first class have the option of fix-
ing a speed limit of one mile in six
minutes. and «hen such limit is fixed,
the township must post signs not over
one-half mile apart, on which the speed
limit and the penalty for violation
thereof are plainly indicated. No
other township, borough or city has
authority to fix a speed limit less than
that established by the Act. Speed
must not at any time be greater than
required by reasonable regard for
safety.
18. All constables and police officers
have authority to make arrests upon
view and without warrant, for viola-
tion of any of the provisions of the act.
In lieu of bail, magistrate is aulhorized
to hold in custody the moter-vehicle
operated by the person arrested.
19. Convictiomsubjects the offender
to a fine of not less than ten dollars nor
more than twenty-five dollars; or in
case of non-payment, to imprisonment
for a period not exceeding ten days.

fine of not less than twenty-five dol-
lars nor more than one hundred dol-
lars ; or in case of non-payment, to im-
prisonment for a period not exceeding
thirty days.
21. Upon certification to the State
Highway Commission of a second con-
vietion, the license issued to the person
convicted is revoked for a period of
six months.
22. All fines are to be paid to the
treasurer of the city, borough or town-
ship wherein the offense was commit-
ted, and are to be expended for the
benefit of the public roads or streets.
23. Section 12 of the Act, relative to
motor vehicles held is stock by manu-
facturers or dealers, is held by the At-
torney General’s Department to be *‘in-
operative and futile.” the license being
granted to the operator, not to the mo-
tor-vehicle.

The B. & 0. Prosperous,
In the annual report of the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad, it is stated under
the head of construction and better-
ments that the large expenditure was
between Pittsburg and Akron, where
something over $2,000,000 was expend-
ed for a new double track line from
Niles through Youngstown to Cuyahoga
expended in the way of additional
tracks, stations and terminal facilities
over the entire system.
Special mention is made of the prog-
ress of the work on the new terminal
and station at Washington, work on
which it is'expected will be ready for
operation some time in 1907. This ter-
minal is being constructed by the
Washington Terminal Company, the
stock of which is owned jointly by the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad.
The aggregate expenditure for con-
783. Upward of $1,000,000 of this sum
was expended on terminal improve-
ments in and around Baltimore, includ-
ing new warehouse, freight pier at Lo-
cust Point and improvements to the
main line entrance into the city ; about
$500,000 for terminal yards at Wash-
ington ; about $1,500,000 for the Pitts-
burg division for improved freight
facilities.
‘The volume of traffic was the great-
est in the history of the company.
Tonnage maintained its ratio of gain,
reaching a total of 47,285,183 tons car-
ried, an increase of 3,937,990 tons. Bi-
tuminous coal constituted 1472377
tons, stone, sand and like commodities
540,833 tons, ores 444,620.

An American journalist, returms-
jng after an absence of some years
abroad, comments upon the profuse
application of titles which is becom-
ing frequent in this country. The
practice is essentially a modern one.
Daniel Webster in his lifetime was
never spoken of as “Senator” Web-
ster, but always as plain “Mr.” Web-
ster. Nowadays, however, it is {n-
variably “Senator” this and that;
and almost everybody has some kind
of a handle to his name. If this
kind of thing keeps on we shall end
by resting qur claims to respect and
consideration upon those painfr iy
minute social distinctions which pre-
vail in Germany, where men or wo-
men inscribe their names in hotel
registers with the addition of such
descriptive phrases as ‘“‘cousin to an
apothecary’’ or brother-in-law to a
corporal.— Boston Herald.
Germs and Trafic.
Ever since medical records began
it has been recognized that plague
follows routes of travel. The great
caravan routes in Asia were and are
still among the most potent dissemi-
nators of the germ. Obviously para-
sitee which infest the human bedy
will be more or less dependent on
man’s migration for their spread.
All quarantine regulations are based
on the recognition of this fact.—Ex-
change.
Russia's Fatal Error.
The Russians were beaten because
they didn’t knbw how to make the
best use of the instruments with
which they had been provided.
Their government had proceeded in
the theory that big ships make a
strong navy, and that the human ele-
ment is a subordinate consideration.
It was an error which has frequent-
ly been made before, but that it is a
fatal one the result of the fighting
in the Sea of Japan has once more
demonstrated. — Philadelphia In-
quirer.
Birds as Ship Christeners.
When a Japanese ship is about®to
be launched there is suspended from
the bow a huge cage, into which are
crowded a score or more of birds.
Just as the prow cuts the water the
side of the cage is thrown open and
the vessel enters her native element
with her prow crowned by a living
garland of birds, whose free flight
through space is emblematic of the
spirit of the ship.—Chicago Chron-
icle.
Land of "Black Snow.”
A strange phenomenon has been
witnessed recently in the snow re-
gion about Coire, in the Swiss can-
ton of the Grisons. The wide stretch
of snow has suddenly been trans-
formed into a vast sweep of jet
black. This is owing to the sudden
falllng upon the country of enor-
mous swarms of a small black in-
sect, without wings, but provided
with two long legs that permit him
to move like a grasshopper.
Divorce in England.
The number of petitions filled for
dissolution of marriages {in Eng-
land and Wales in 1902 was 1080,
against 300 in 1901. The annual
average number of petitions filed in
five years (1898-1962) was 8583.
The number of petitions filed in 1902
by husbands was 609; by wives, 441;
total 1,050.
The Submarine’s Tiny Guardians.
Three white mice are in each sub-
marine boat and are entered on the
parroli of the fleet. These little
creatures detect an escape of gaso-
line more quickly than human beings
do, and by their squeals and efforts
to escape draw attention to the fact
that something is amiss.—London
Graphic.
Registering Rain Gage.
A German scientific paper de-
scribes a new registering rain gage,
in which each drop falls on a bal-
anced arm, which dips under it,
closes an electric circuit and regis-
ters the fall. The number of drops
in half a minute indicates the in-
tensity of the shower, and curves of
it can be drawn from them.
Electro-Plated Lace.
Electro-plated lace may yet be the
fashion. A French writer says that
a complete set of ecclesiastical vest-
ments has been made at Lyons of
these plated laces, and suggests that
society people adopt them for ball
iresses.
Elaborate Ornamentation.
One room at Tsarskoe, the Czar’s
palace near St. Petersburg, has walls
of lapis lazuli and a floor of ebony
inlaid with mother of pearl. Another
has walls of carved amber, and the
walls of a third are laid with beaten
gold.
Fashion's Manners.
There is no crowd in which rude-
ness of every kind is so comspicu-
ously displayed as that of a fash-
able assembly.—Ambrosia. in the
World.
in Europe.
A German statistician notes that
the increased longevity in Europe
within the last fifty years is more
conspicuous among women than
men.

DAUGHTER OF RUTH.
The annual entertainments of the
Daughters of Ruth and the Band: of
Hope were given in aid of treasuries
sadly in need of a financial tonic.
The two societies had originally
been one united sisterhood, but dis-
sension had done its work when one
faction had clamored for the election
of Nettie Fredericks as president,
while a second division desired a third
term for Mrs. Ida Grumbacher.
Mrs. Grumbacher, fat and placid,
had been duly returned to the chair
for a third term, by virtue of her lav-
ishness as an entertainer, and there-
upon the Fredericks party had estab-
lished the Daughters of Ruth to glean
from the fields of humanity those
whom the demon rum had claimed for
its own.
The cakes were baked by the mem-
bers, but the lemonade cost money,
and it was to provide money for this
tuat the rival societies held an en-
tertainment each year. This year the
ch: 1ces were in favor of the Banders,
who had secured the services of Jack
Schollard as their stage director.
This was all the more an insult to
the Daughters, since Jack had been
paying assiduous court to Nettie Fred-
ericks for several years, and the
Daughers even went so far as to ac-
cuse Mrs. Grumbacher of breaking up
the engagement in order to secure his
cervices for her entertainment.
She had met Jack in the postoffice
the morning after he and Nettie had
had a tiff, and, smarting under the in-
justice of Nettie's assertion that he
was unduly attentive toGrace Vaughn,
Le had readily assented to Mrs. Grum-
bacher’s request that he direct the
cantata and rehearse the various rec-
itations that went to make up her
program.
The Daughters alternately stormed
and pleaded, but to no effect. Jack
assured them that he would be very
lad to help them get up their enter-
tainment, and Nettie, with tear-
stained eyes, vigorously declared that
rhe would see the Daughters go down
to ignominous failure rather than
speak to that horrid man again.
The more the other Daughters
pleaded the more determined she be-
came, and the more triumphant was
the expression upon Mrs. Grumbach-
er’: face. :
On, the day when the Truscott
Trumpet announced that Jack had se-
cured from New York the very latest
songs, the leader of the Banders grew
positively expansive, and announced
that she had decided to dispense with
the cantata and present instead a
minstrel performance, in which the
minstrels should all be members of
the society.
At this announces ent the Daugh-
ters, who had been feebly struggling
with “The Queen of the Roses,” sat
down and wept.
The final straw was applied by no
less a personage than Mrs. Grum-
bacher herself, who, meeting Nettie
in Green's emporium the evening of
the Band entertainment, patronizingly
asked if Nettie would be present.
Receiving an answer in the nega-
tive, she continued, patronizingly:
“My dear, you can’t afford to miss it.
You might pick up some good ideas
for your own entertainment.”
Then she swept out of the store.
Jack Shollard was coming down the
other side of the street, and all Main
street gasped to see her cross and
hail him.
“Jack,” she said with a bewitching
smile. “I am sorry I was so cross the
other evening. Will you make up?”
“Will I?” His face grew radiant.
“Why, my darling:
She held up a detaining hand.
“Come up to the house this evening,”
she said, “and bring the ring.”
“But,” he stammered, “tonight is
the Band of Hope entertainment.”
“I know it,” she said, coldly: “be
there by 7 o’clock if you -are coming.”
The following paragraphs are from
the Truscott Trumpet:
“The Band of Hope entertainment
which was to have been given at the
town hall Thursday has been post-
poned because it was found impossible
for the minstrels to blacken their
faces on account of the unavoidable
absence of John Schollard, who was
to show them how.
“The entertaniment will positively
be given two weeks from Thursday,
when the Daughters of Ruth will take
part, the two societies having decided
to reunite. Miss Nettie Fredericks has
been elected president in place of
Mrs. Ida Grumbacher, who resigned.
“We hear that Jack Schollard and
Nettie Fredericks are to be married
next month. Congratulations, Jack.”
