was supreme moment for Barlow.
but he bore, it well and gradually
pressed the lever more and more as
the car went bowling away with 8
steady motion that sent q glow of
victory over his face. There was
too much excitement among the
men for talk, but each one jerksd
cut, word Of congratulation and
urged Barlow to sslet her out. /" The
inventor, however, kept his head
and after swift run to within sight
of the lights of Gloucester, he stop
ped the car, reversed the action and
started on the return. He explain
ed that the moter was of limited ca
pacity and had been built for exper-
iment only, but that force enough
to make show of speed
back to Camden He then pressed
the lever hard down, the car whiz-
zed away like the wind and the lit
tie building was reached in three
minutes speed of about seventy
five miles an hour. Mr.. Barlow is
very modest and would prefer that
nothing be said about his motor un-
til he has built one capable of real
work. This he will do at once and
when it is completed public test of
its power viii be made. The re-
porter endeavored to obtain from
him somc information as to the in
ternal structure of his device, but on
this point he will not say word.
When he applies for his patents the
world will know the secret of his
wonderful achievement, but until
then it must be satisfied with the
fact that Keely has been outdons
and that new and marvellous mo-
tive power has been discovered and
actually tested while he has been
promising and pestponing.
A visit was paid to the Keely of
fee yesterday. There it was learn
ed that the inventor was discourag-
ed. Secretary Sehuellerman declar-
ed that Mr.. Keely had discharged
all his workmen because he had
nothing more fer them to do. He
had built all the engines he wanted,

PITTENGER's MISSING HONEY.
His Daughter Dreams TINT he Buried 1,
Under the Barn.

NUNDA. N. Y, Dec. 1G.-Daniel Plttenger,
an eccentric old man, who although we'll edu-
Gated and we'll to do. sawed wood for all who
asked for his services in this village. died
here eighteen years ago. A short time
before no died he drew out nearly 81 OOO
which he had on deposit in tho bank
here. He was known to have large
amount Of money In gold besides much of
which he carried about on his person. When
1t became known that he must die his family
desired to have him tell them where his money
was and what he wished done with 1t. His solo
reply was. II you find it after am dead do
what You please with it," A few minutes be-
lore he died he said Dig for It," These were
his last words.
As tho money could not no found anywhere
1t was believed that his dying words were meant
to indicate that he had buried 1t. Tho ground
In his garden and yard was torn up several
times but no trace of the money could ba
found. The property finally passed into other
hands and Pittenger 8 family moved West.
Last week a daughter OF his arrived In this
place. She has dreamed three different times
that the missing money was buried under the
barn on tho premises where her father died
which Is standing MS 1t was then. The property
now belongs TO William birmingham. He has
no faith in he dreams Of the woman and has
thus ar refused 10 have his premises torn up
to satisfy her. She Ia still hore, pleading for
permission to have the ground under the barn
thorough exam ned. and others are using
their influence to have the matter tested.
