Bells "HeIIoI" Patent Expires
by Limitation To-day.

The idea of a new telephone sys-
TEN to be established in this city and
the great interest being manifested in
the matter generally speaking, it is
timely to state that to-day the famous
telephone patent of Alexander Ora
ham Bell expired by limitation, its
full seventeen years of life having
terminated. The same patent has
been the cause of worldwide contro-
versy and long years of litigation, in
which the best legal talent in the
country was interested and which in
vOlved the expenditure Of millions of
dollars. Now that the expiration has
arrived it is a matter of great public
interest to know what effect the ex-
piring Of this patent will have in the
telephone world.
Bells patent, As it is Familiarity
known in the scientific world, has for
seventeen years been the armor and
sword of one of the largest corpora
tions that the world has ever seen.
From behind this perfect garment of
mail it has laid hands on every city
and village in the land. strung its
wires along the country roadsides from
ocean to ocean, and varied its charges
at will. 1t has also successfully with !
stood the attacks of scores of rival in |
ventors and has been upheld in nearly |
every court in the land. It's legal !.
complications have been innumerable, |
and it has set the pace for all modern
and commercial litigation, behind
and in imitation of which ill other
great corporations are now trotting.
The simple fact that although the
fundamental pinciple Is now open to
all; inventors, and there Is unlimited
c.Pital in the land lying practically

The chairman said that the first

Sedalia, Marshall and Northern rail
road from this city to Miami has been
let to Qnigley & Co.. of st. Louis, a

enterprise through to a successful con-
clusiOn.
There are some matters, however,
IN reference to terminal facilities
which must he settled first. Wemust

use for before work can be inaugur-
ated and we must also have right of

would build the road and all along
the line the people have united and
our arrangements for the necessary
money are about completed. l con-
graduate the people upon the bright
prospect before them.
While our present contract covers

and the people will get the road for
$4,000: 1t will require s4O.O 900 to

their way to Chicago.
AT Lindsey's the express passed a local
freight which had been sdetracked. The
express train was running at full speed and
passed safely until the slespers neared tho
switch close to the freight, when the first
three sleepers jumped the track and ran
into the engine Of the freight. The engine
was wrecked and the sleepsTs were crushed
like eggshells.
The scene that followed the collision was
heartrending. The groans Of the dying, the
shrieks of the injured and the Kissing of the
escaping steam combined to add horror to
the scene and work was at once begun to
render aid to the INJURED and those who
were imprisoned in the ruins.
