TESTS OF BATTLESHIPS.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-Navy De-
partment officials have taken steps to
cruise of the Atlantic fleet by conduct-
ing an engineering competition under
service conditions. The performance
of the vessels in the fleet will be
watched with the closest attention and
track will be kept of the amount of
coal and water consumed, the quanti-
ty of lubricating oil used and the re-
sultant condition of the machinery.
This will be in line with the prac-
tice inaugurated by the late Rear Ad-
miral Evans on the start of the fam-
ous cruise around the world with the
Atlantic fleet in 1908, which resulted
in great improvement in the engineer—
ing departments and large reduction
in the consumption of cool on the new
lighting craft.

Arrowhead is outlined Flrot.
The arrowheads which are so often
seed on tailored clothes are
with one thread. This method of
working is not hard. The outline of
the arrowhead should first be marked
with a pencil or chalk and then out-
lined with thread so that a clean
outline can be preserved.
. Bring the needle up at the top point.
then put it in at the lower right-hand
point and bring to the surface again
at the lower left-hand side. The next
stitch is taken at the top, directly be
low the starting point in a straight
line from right to left. The stitches
are then taken alternately at the top
and base, using the outline as a guide.
You could draw the arrowhead any
size you wish. First draw a perpen-
dicular line. Use the top for the point
of the arrowhead, then measure the
same distance to the right and left of
the perpendicular and draw a line
from these points to the top. Toward
the bottom of the perpendicular make
a dot and draw ii line from the right
and left at the bottom of the arrow-
head.

The activity 2f State legislators can
in no wise be equalled by the national
lawmakers for the reason that only
general bills covering the railroads
as interstate carriers can be introduc-
ed. However, in the first six weeks of
the present session of Congress exact-
ly twenty-one bills covering railway
operation alone were introduced and
four other measures affecting the rall~
roads in other respects were also put
in.
The bills introduced in Congress
have likewise covered a variety of mat~
tors, but among them is one calling
for all interstate roads to adopt a
block system within six months after
Ills passage and another prohibiting
the use of wooden passenger cars on
any such road after next year. It was
recently estimated by a special conv
mittee that to replace all wooden cars
with steel, as called for by the latter
bill, would cost the railroads $630,480,»
400. Also to equip every road with
automatic block signals would cost the
railroads $286,402,970 with an annual
maintenance, interest and deprecia-
tion charge amounting to $73,701,012.

Utilities and railroad commissions af-
fecting railroad operation, but where‘
as those under the law are the result
of study and investigation. many of the
bills introduced by legislators have not
been based on actual experience and
acquaintance with the facts.
it has been stated by more than one
expert recently that the increased cost
of railroad capital is today plainly at-
tributable to the flood of legislation on
railroad matters. 0n the other hand,
such men as President Ripley, of the
Atchison. have stated that with such
conditions operating to prevent rail»
roads from raising needed capital the
expansion of our present railroad facil-
ities is almost impossible.
President Howard Elliott, of the
New York,» New Haven & Hartford
linilrond. speaking on this subject,
said recently in an authorized inter-
view:
“it may be said that in the matter
of legislation the railroads suffer in
common with all other enterprises and
with every individual in the country
from the American passion for legisla-
tion. How profound that passion is
can be gathered from a comparison
between the legislation introduced into
and passed by the English Parliament
and by our national Senate and House.
[At Westminster during the ten years
ending with 1000 there were introduo
ed and considered 0,201 measures, of’
