PHONE TRIUMPH NEW EXCHANGE SERVICE IS DECLARED FINEST OF ITS KIND IN WORLD. FAULTS IN OLD METHOD Switchboards and Other Appliances Are Made Fire Proof; Other New Features. London, Feb. 23. London telephone service, according to an American critic, who has traveled much, was declared recently the worst In the world. Now London claims that it has achieved a telephone" triumph and possesses the finest exchange in the world. That, of course, remains yet to be discovered, but be that as it may, between tonight and Monday morning an important change reprei senting great development in telephone work will take place in the city. At a given signal over 12,000 subscribers who are at present on the Central exchange wll be transferred to what will in the future be known as the city exchange, the construction and equipment of which is just completed. That the new exchange will prove the finest in the world, appears to be not. only the opinion of the postofflce authorities but also of every independent expert who has seen it. The central exchange, opened only four years ago, is out of date in many respects and obsolete in others. Many of the improvements are pure ly technical, such as the method of wiring circuits, and others will bring about changes which are calculated to increase the efficiency and speed with which the system is worked. Everything has been made as fire proof as human skill can make it; Switchboards have been constructed in such a way that the risk of fire is reduced to a minimum. The switchboards themselves, are made of iron, and the wood work in front of the. boards is lined with metal. All the power in the wires is isolated, either by being sheathed in lead or carried in iron troughing. The great inconvenience which was caused recently by a fire in the city exchange showed how desirable it was to make future exchanges fireproof. In another respect the new ex change represents an entirely fresh leparture, which other countries may copy if it be found a success. Hitherto it has been the rule to have subscribers ' lines multiplied. One result was that no switchboard could be designed to provide for more than 20,000 subscribers. The system would have suited admirably and it would have been necessary to retain it if the majority of calls were between subscribers on the same exhange, but in Lodon it has been proved that not more than 20 per rent of calls originating at one exchange can be completed without the assistance of the operator at some ather exchange. The multiple system, so far at any rate as large exchanges are concerned is therefore needlessly cumbersome. What has been done at the new city ?xchange is to have the lines multiA DIFFERENCE IN LUNGS. In. the Edinburgh University three human lungs lie side by side. One is of an : Eskimo and is snow white. In life, this would be ruddy with rich blood. Another is that of a coal-miner and is black. The other is of a town dweller and is a dirty slate gray, as are the lungs of most city residents. That's why consumption thrives in cities. One reason why Scott's I Emulsion does so much to keep down consumption is because it helps to keep the lungs clean and supplies them with rich, red blood. It makes the lungs germ-resisting. If the body is run down and health is at a low jebb Scott's Emulsion will build it up quickly and per;SCOTf & BOWNI. 409 Petri Street NewYok.

olio I on the j;i::eiicn board enly, in a.i.Mticn to i:;t'rcrsi::g tie speed at which the system can be worked. The charge overcomes the, limitations as to the 6ize of the exchanges. At the city exchange, for instance, 60,000 subscribers can be provided for, whereas on the principle in operation at the old central exchange three different exchanges would have been required to accommodate this number. The arrangements have been so well perfected that the change from the old to the new system will be carried out almost automatically. It is proposed to bring the central exchange up to date in view of future extensions. Statisticians may be interested to know that nearly 7,000 miles of wire have bee nused in the exchange, and that the soldered connections number 4,000,000.

TOIIIA. Bears the Signature of The Kind Yah Have Always Bought ROAD IS LAW ABIDING PENNSYLVANIA SYSTEM HAS ' CLEAN RECORD. Recent Reforms Maintain Its Record For Couraseous Stand. JnAJL.JIt Matters. f The Pennsylvania railroad, it is well understood, has on all occasions, obeyed the law. The Pennsylvania has always refused to join the anthracite coal organizations and in the last years of that organization refused to be represented at meetings. Finally all the coal roads adopted the Pennsylvania's course and there has been no tangible anthracite coal combination for ten years. It was the first railroad corporation to accept willingly the interstate commerce bill and Mr. Cassatt, it is well known admitted very early in the last stage of corporate agitation that some regulated provisions by the government over railroads were necessary and that railroads should assist in the reform, and for a long time it stood alone. The Pennsylvania was never thoroughly identified with the old trunk line pool and it abandoned all its pooling connections at once when the law forbade. Now it has boldly taken the reform step of abolishing railway passes which seems to have brought upon it the legislative and anti-corporation fire of the national and state capitols, but it moves on, seemingly unchecked in its determi-. nation to test the law as it now stands.

SAGE HOW IGNORES HER THOUGH SHE IS HIS FIRST COUSIN. In Days of Youth She Entertained Millionaire and Now She Lives 1 in Poverty. Toledo, O., Feb. 23. Although she used to be his hostess in the days of his youth and she is the widow of one of his first cousins, Russell Sage, the veteran millionaire of New York, is now a stranger to Mrs. John Sage. The latter, with her son, live here in one room of an old rookery known as the Oliver house, subjects of charity. Mrs. Sage is 85 and "her boy" is 65. He sometimes gets work around second-hand stores. He used to be a blacksmith, but is now too aged to work at his trade. He is too feeble to do much work of any kind, and the city and benevolent individuals aid the two. They live from hand to mouth and have only the clothes on their backs. Mrs. Sage's husband died eight years ago at Novi, Mich. He was a first cousin of the financier, and Mrs. Sage says that in the early part of their married life, Russell Sage often visited them. That was before he had accumulated wealth. Now Mrs. Sasre knows nothing of him. Despite the years of her son, Mrs. Sage is very motherly to him. When a local press photographer called upon them, Mrs. Sage donn 1 an ancient black silk dress and then Lusied herff in getting her son ready to poe. Combing his hair for him and adjusting his tie, she apologized for his flannel shirt, and led him by the hand to the seats in front of the camera. Jim is equally attentive to his mother, and the two live a simple, pathetic life, without apparently a tinr,p of envy of Russell Sage and his untold plcasureless K.illions.

VAN DE?I ERG G0K!!!G TO RICHMOND

Brahm Van den Berg, who will appear as solist on March 13th with the Cincinnati Symphony orchestra, in the Coliseum, was born at Cologne, on the Rhine, in 1876. At the age of five he was taken to Antwerp and there received his education, his first piano teacher being M. Edward Kurwelds, present director of the National opera at Antwerp. At the age of twelve he played in many concerts and received recognition from many European critics. While a very young artist, he was engaged for a series of concerts in London, Paris, Amsterdam, Brussels, Liege, and elsewhere. While on this tournee he met Saint-Saens in Paris, and that composer was so impressed with the young Belgian's playing that he invited him to his own home, where he had for a time the benefit of this great musician's personal tuition. Appearing later before the King of THOSE WHO THINK Will Be Impressed by this Statement of a Richmond Citizen. The reader can hardly doubt the evidence which follows. The statement given here comes from a Richmond resident, and can easily be proven. If you are skeptical, investigate. Martin Bulac, tailor, 101 West Second street, says: "I was subject to aching pains through my loins and in my kidneys with a tendency of the muscles to tire quickly. The kidney secretions were frequent, scanty and annoying. I was advised to try Doan's Kidney Pills and got a box at A. G. Luken 's drug store. I took but a few doses when I felt their ben eficial effects, and in a short time my back felt all right. I can rec ommend Doan's Kidney Pills very highly to anyone suffering from their kidneys."

Belgium at his palace he became a protege of the King and Queen, completing his musical education under such eminent musicians and teachers as Josef Wieniawski, Peter Benoit, Jean Blocks, Tilborgh, and Leschetizky, and afterwards made an important and successful concert tour. In 196 Mr. Van den Berg returned to Antwerp, taking the position of first conductor in the National Opera, succeeding his former teacher, Edward Kurwelds, who had recommended him for the position, which he held for two seasons. He then became conductor at the Grand Opera House in Algiers, where he remained until 1900, producing about this time an opera of his own composition which was well received. Mr. Van den Berg has written many compositions in varied style, and , his musical temperament is intensely impresive. MILTON (Palladium Correspondence.) Milton, Ind., Feb. 23.
