Among the California people owning
real estate in this city, and well known
here is Mr.. j. q. Kenyoa. TIE follow
ing item from the san Malteo Times will
be of interest to his friends here: Last
week We called attention to pew style
dcubIe-reyolving axle wagon which was
seen on tho streets. The wagon was IN
vented by Mr.. J. Gardner Kenyon of
San Francisco. Each wheel Las an axle
which extends TO the opposite side OF the
wagon and fits in a socket, the axle tu.u-
ing with the wheel. The aXles are piuc-
ed one above the other which necessi-
tates the wheels on the one side being
smaller than those on the other side,
giving the vehicle an odd appearance.
Owen McGarvey has given the wagon
fair trial on level and billy roads and
pronounces it one of the best he has seen
IN all bis experience of thir!y-fiye years.
He also declares that he can haul load
one-fourth heavier than on an ordinary
wagon. This recommendation coming
from man of McGaryey's good judg
ment is worthy of credence. Several
others who have examined the wagon
and seen it used are couident that it
will be n great success, as with the axles
thus arranged, the binding OF the wheels
which occurs while driving on side-hlIl
will be entirely done away with.
