prominence soon, but such is the case.
While in search Of news yesterday report
er met Mr.. w. II. II. Campbell, who re-
sides at 800 North Market street, and who
invited him 10 examine a combination hand
and foot motor for which he has just receiv-
ed patent This wonderful invention is
admirably adapted for motive power for
light machinery and vehicles of all kinds,
including railroad hand cars and anything
of that kind. The reporter spent some
time in observing its adaptability to various
uses and figuring on its auxiliary
to man in the matter OF travel, and was as
tonished 10 find that, by it's aid, tricicles
could be propelled with ease to the speed of
a fast horse, and hand cars could be driven
on express time by four men. with the
greatest ease. The inventor, who is an old
resident OF this county, explained number
Of different notifications by which this ex-
cellent invention could be made suitable as
motive power for machinery, and after
spending half hour with him, we are
satisfied this machine, which is very simple
and cheap, is destined TO produce reyolu-
ton in operating machinery. Mr.. Camp
bell intends going east soon for the purpose
of inducing some manufacturing concern to
assist him in the manufacture and intro
duction of his wonderful patent, combina-
ton power For operating machinery.

great many of our citizens expressed re-

Gated on the east side of the river, and was
very conveniently located for good part
Of the grain trade. A reporter of the EAGLE
met Mr.. osgood on the street yesterday and
found that while be feels his loss very keenly
he is already making arrangements to re-
place the elevator recently burned with 8
much better one. 1t is proposed TO build
the new elevator of brick and as nearly fire
proof as can be done. If Captain 0sgood
succeeds in erecting this building in ac-
cordance with the plans of the architect il
