The House
TIC HOUse.
The house convened at 1890 O'Clock.

The house convened at 1890 O'Clock.
The bill concerning the temporary ap-
pointment of county commissioners, which
Is the product of Attorney Hamersley
dem. of Hartford, was on the calendar of
the house to day for passage. It provides
that the two commissioners in each comfy
whose terms have expired shall act as
county commissioners until March /, 1898
In the meantime the legislature can fill
these places, and if it does not the COVER
nor ia empowered to make appointments
after March l. Attorney Hamersley ex-
to tide over the emergency, go that there
wonld be ample time for the selection of
these officials He also said 1t was neces-
sary to pass this measure 80 that the COM
miseioners could take the required action
about providing appropriations for the
various county Institutions and transact
ing other necessary business.
Representative Tuttle, DEM, offered an
amendment to the bill 30 that the governor
could mako the appointments right away.
He ms6e speech against Hamersley's bill,
taking the ground that the Offices should
tie filled Immediately and by the governor.
Representative Gum, dem of Milford
said: IT do not see any reason why we
should skirk our manifest duty. It is the
privilege of the general assembly to make
the appointments of county commissioners.
There is no need of delay. The gentlemen
in this house are not 80 far away from the
interests of the people but that they can
make these appointments"
representative Callahan, DEM, of New
Haven in his argument against the Ham
ersley bill, said 81 do not know that
fully understand the purport of the
amendment (ruttle'e), but I have read
the bill and understand it. I am opposed
to the bill. It is our plain irty to fill
twenty four hours just as we'll as on
March /. If you will defeat this bill it
will take but few moments for us to do
our duty and appoint men to fill these
Offices. It Is not for us to recall to Office
those whom some of us consider unworthy
of such Office We don't want to revive
them, thoss already dead. For these ads-
uuate reasons I heartily oppose the bill"
The bill was adopted after more argument
by a vote of 1O4 to 70.
Representative Hotehkiss, DEM, of New
Haven introduced bill which provides
that those who have claims for damages to
property against the New Haven and Der

NOT so HARD AS IT SEEMS.

A patent strikes most people as an appal |
ingly formidable thing. The idea is that an
inventor must be natural genius, like Edi
son or Bel; that he must devote years to
delying in complicated mechanical problems
and that he must spent fortune on delicate
experiments before he can get new device to
patentable degree of perfection. This delu-
sion the company desires to dispel. 1t desires
to get into the head of the public clear COM
prehension of the fact that it is not the great,
complex, and expensive inventions that bring
the best returns to their authors but the lit
tie, simple, and cheap ones-the things that
seem so absurdly trivial tina the average citi-
zen would feel somewhat ashamed of bringing
them to the attention of the Patent Office.
Edison says that the profits he has received
from the patents.on all his marvellous inven-
tons have not been sufficient to pay the cost
of his experiments. But the man who con-
ceived the idea of fastning a bit of rubber
cord to a cnild's ball, go that it would come
back TO the hand when thrown made fortune
out of his scheme. The modern sewing-ma-
chine is miracle of neutrality-suspicious. of
the toll of hundreds of busy brairs througt a
hundred and fiftyryears, but the whole bril-
liant result rests upon the simple device of
putting the eye of the needle at the point in.
stead of at the other end

NO BLANKS IN THIS COMPETITION.

This is competition of rather an unusua
nature. II is common to offer prizes for the
best story, or picture, or architectural plan,
all the con petitors risking the loss of their
labor and the successful one merely selling
his for the amount of the prize. But the
Press Claims Company's offer 10 something
entirely different, Each person is asked
merely to help himself, and the one who
helps himself to the best advantage is to be
rewarded for doing it. The prize Is only q
stimulus to do something that would be
well worth doing without it. The architect
whose competitive plan for club house on q
certain corner is not accepted has not spent
his labor on something of very little use to
him. But the person who patent simple and
useful device in the Press Claims Company's
competition, need not worry If he fail to So
cure the prize. He has substantial result to
show for his work-one that will command it's
value in the market at any time.
The plain man who uses any article In his
daily work ought to know better how to I'M
prove it than the mechanical expert who
studies it only from the theoretical point of
view Get rid of the idea that an improve
ment can be too simple to be worth patenting.
The simpler the better. The person who best
succeeds In combining simplicity and popu-
larity, will get the Press Claims Company's
twenty-five hundred dollars.
The responsibility of this company may be
dyed from the fact that it's stock is held by
about three hundred of the leading news
papers of the United States.

The Little Things The Most Valuable =.

Comparatively few Fpeople regard them
selves as inventors, but! almost everybody
has been struck, at one time or another,
wi tn ideas that seemed calculated to reduce
some of the1litte frictions of life. Usually
such ideas are dismissed without further
thought.
why don't the railroad company make it's
car windows so that they.can be slid up and
down without breaking the passengers
backs?" exclaims the traveller. "If l were
running the road would make them in such
a way"
what was the man that made this sauce
pan thinking Off" grumbles the cook. HE
never had TO work over a stove or he would
have known how it ought to have been fixed"
Hang such q collar button" growls the
man who is late for breakfast. "If were in
the business I'd make buttons that would Mt
slip out, or break Off, or gouge out the back
of my neck"
And then the various sufferers forgot about
their grievar C es and begin.to think of some
thing else. If they would sit down at the
next convenient opportunity, put their ideas
about car windows, saucepans, and collar
buttons into practical shape, and then apply
for patents. they might find themselves as IN
dependently wealthy as the man who invent
ed the iron umbrella ring, or the one who
patented the fifteen puzzle.

Fortune, and the. LOSersssHaIe Patents
that may Bring them In Still More.

Would you like to meke twenty-five hun

what follows and you may see way to do it.
The Press Claims Company devotes much
attention to patents. 1t has handled thous.
ands of applications for inventions, but it
would like to handle thousand more. There

country, needing nothing but encourage ent
to produce practical results. That encourage
ment the Press Claims Company proposes to
