The Federal Court Of Iowa has finally
rendered an opinion on the question of
the validity of Nelson w. Green's drive
well patent, a case that has been pending
for some time. The court holds that there
are two well established instances of prior
use of the principle involved in this
patent, one Of them being at Independ-
ence, Iowa, where we'll was sunk in the
early summer of 1861, and the other at
Milwaukee, where large number of them
were put down as carly as 1910, the pat
eut to Greea not having been issued till
1868, and the applications of the principle
not having been discovered and put into
use by him until after the well at Inde-
pendence was proved a success. The
court holds that Col. Green made no effort
to prevent the use of his discovery by the
public for about seven years, and it is
upon this showing, more than the fact
that the Iowa and Wisconsin well ante
dated Col. Green's discovery and applica-
ton of the principle, that the patent is
held void. The court also hold that the
reissue was void for the reason that it set
out broader claim than was contained
in the original patent.

r OF
SEWERAGE.


In THE RECORD of March 29th last, I'M
der the heading of Sewerage, there
were some appropriate suggestions for
the thinking citizens of Lambertville and
the city council.
The time is at hand, to determine what
to do with the sewerage the gar
bage" and the accumulation of ashes, and
like material; it will not do to depend on
the disposal of these unavoidable accu-
mutations OF material, as was formerly
done, by depositing in the streets, alleys,
vacant lots, the canal, Swan creek or the
river. 1t must be removed quickly and
effectually from the thickly settled por-
tions of the city so that the ordinarily
prevailing winds will not bring the effluvia
of the decaying matter back into any por-
ton Of the city.
Our city has increased in population
and with class of housekeepers that can
not trough it' as was done some thirty
years ago. Then the gardens not only
gave the family their vegetables but q
dumping ground for their sewage"
Now the gardens are built upon and
"truck' is brought into the city by car
and wagon loads, and if our city is to in
crease, provision must be made to ac-
commodate the people and give facilities
to trade, and we must not lag behind our
sister cities in affording the comforts and
advantages of modern improvements.
In the article of March 2sth the "War-
ing System" was suggested, similar to
that adopted in Memphis; and Wilkes
barre, Pa. was cited as having adopted it.
At Wikesbarre it was partly carried into
effect but after heavy storm the system
has been changed, and it has been found
that there is royalty, or patent fee, of
cents per foot to be paid on Warnings
system.
Our city wants no single and permanent
system, but combination Of systems that
is adapted to the contour, and the clay"
of the land which forms tho plot of the
city.
This is an important matter to the tax
payer and property owner, and it is due
to them that the subject should be well
understood and fairly discussed, before
any expenditure, except for surveys es-
Inmates and information, is made for work
or material, and the sooner the preliminary
work of council is begun the better for
our community.

no hole for ingress or egrcss in its

How Easily are We Gulled.

A few years ago company OF stroll
ing actors got stranded in small town
in Ohio. 1t was, as the actors say,
"a hard CO." 1t was a case in which
the end seemed to justify the means
The men all went to the bottom OF their
pockets, but only fifty cents could be
scraped together in the entire crowd.
The money was taken to grocery in
the little town and invested in cheap
soap. The bars were cut up into small
pieces, which were wrapped in colored
tissue paper These were divided among
the men, and they started out to raise
the wind. The wonderful stories that
were told of that soap made the iDno-
cent town people open their eyes.
These little pieces of soap in their pretty
covering of tissue paper were sold for
twenty-five cents; bar of soap. which
cost five cents, was made to net 50, and
in two days enough money WAS raised
to take the company out of town. That
was only one experiences; the same
company passed through many others.
In hard row, one day, one of the
actors took wire basket from sword
and twisted the little pieces of wires
into curious shapes. These, he claimed,
hung on to the driving wheel of a sew
ing machine, would make it work easier.
and, with a quick, ready tongue, he
convinced the women that it mitigated
their labors about one-half, and he soon
had well-filled purse. Another man.
who is well known in the dramatic pro-
fession, was on a protracted spree in
the city of Cincinnati. Coming around
to himself, he was without money, and
was put to his wits end to get to a dis
tant town to fill an engagement. He
got lot of Walls and filled them with
decoction, principally made up of port
wine and water. This he represented
as wonderful elixir for ageing whisky,
and was wonderfully successful in inn
posing it upon the dealers of that city.
Not only saloon-keepers, but wholesale
dealers and druggists bought it. He
actually obtained number of sigma
lures to recommendation of the stuff,
and by big talk and glo" ing representa-
tons, succeeded in disposing of the
right of its sale in that city for pretty
good amount. All these wandering i'm
posters, however, are not stroling ac-
tors, and all the articles offered at the
doors of our houses are not without
some merit. Post.
