zens surrounded the bank and called
upon the thieves to surrender Instead
of doing so the men started to run,
after firing their revolvers. Three
escaped, but fourth, who gave the
name of John Wortz aud his home as

thieves got about 5000. A suspect is
also under arrest.-Richland Democrat.

still out after the burglars and are on a
pretty sure trail. We hope to see the
whole gang soon.

PERPETUAL MOTION.
A Waterloo, Iowa, Tin Smith
Solves the Problem.
1T is A VERY SIMPLE AFFAIR
BIT 1T DOES THE WORK EASILY AMI
WITHOUT A HITCH.

BIT 1T DOES THE WORK EASILY AND
WITHOUT A HITCH.
For some time it has been an accep-
ted idea that perpetual motion was not
attainable. A machine which furnish
its own impetus has never been found
that could overcome the Away preseat
friction and more failures are credited
to the great desire to attain this desd-
eratum than to anything else that has
bothered the brain and perplexed the
reasoning powers of man.
But, citizen of Waterloo has shown
how easy it is for the whole world to be
wrong. How machinist', engineers
and men of science have pronounced
the idea chlmercal when it was not,
overlooking the simplest principles in
mechanics, aud leaving it for an unas-
Stunning tinsmith to solve the problem.
w. II, Jennish is young man about
% years of age He desired a machine
to display goods in store windows. He
made the machine and surprised him
self, by setting it 10 motion oyer two
weeks ago, and without more ado, and
with no power exerted than it furnishes
itself has been running ever since.
The machine Is not complicated in
the least. In fact it is simplicity itself,
both in material and in principle, and
more than ono Of the thousands who
have seen it have wondered why they
had not thought of it before.
Iron arms are hinged to to a common
tin pie plate. On the end OF these
arms are heavy iron balls. This plate
is fixed on an axis at one end Of q tin
frame AS this plate revolyes these
balls which hug the rim of the plate
through the influence of gravity reach
a point just below the horizontal plane
of the axis they fall outward the length
of the arm giving new impetus to the
revolving disk and brings the next bali
to point Of usefulness. With tais
alone the object is not attained as there
is a perceptibe hitch in passing certain
centres. This is obYiated by running
bell TO IN upright axle or which is a
toothed wheel from which revolves an
arm. This arm follows a governor.
When the arm lags the governor hits it
and thereby furnishes the power to
pass the centre at the other end of the
frame. Thus it will be seen that these
two simple little machines furnish the
necessary power TO each other.
Is it perpetual motion? If not what
is itp The little machine has been run
ming for two weeks without hitch and
promises to run to the crack Of doom or
until it wears out.
Mr. Jennish has lived in Charles City
the greater part of his life, learned the
tinsmith trade when quite young, work
ing in shops in Charles City until one
year ago, when he went to Waterloo
and engaged with Mr.. Switzer as tin.
ner. He makes no particular claims
for his machine and claims he simply
made it as window attraction to dis
play goods on.

Sheriff Thompson stretched ban her across the left side of the en- trance to his office this morning that reads as follows:
 Tax books will close tonight. Will open Friday 18th. and remain open a few days This action is very commendable on the part of Sheriff Thompson from the fact that large crowds of tax payers could not possibly be accommodated, this morning by the Sheriff and his deputies and were thereby forced to retire. Great crowds are constantly gathering in the office and every body is being accommodated as rapidly as possible. R. Lee Johnson

OUR BOYS ACQUITTED.
The Federal Election Cases Finally settled

The GRAPHIC is in receipt of tele- gram from Little Rock stating that all our boys in the much aggravated Federal election cases were this morning acquitted and that they will be home tonight The intelli. genee is certainly gratifying for it has been nothing more than an at. tempt on the part of Poker Jack Mcclure to make a mountain out oi a mole-hill' and create unwarranted trouble over our last Congressional leections. Yesterday Gen. H. King White demurred to the indictment against John Eaton, Tom Pierce and Eph. Herr, Judges of Election of Pastoria township, and the demur- Ter was sustained by Judge John A. Williams. Today Hon. Sam NJ, Taylor demulred to the indictment against Shelley M Currie, Randall Motley and Samuel P. Johnson, judges of elections of Melton town ship, which demurrer was also sus- tained by Judge Williams.
 The election cases are settled for ever and our boys are, as Richard of old, themselves again.

ADJUSTMENTS.
Clay Clement.

Clay Clement.
 The New Dominion is German comedy of the highest order and is to play-goers d decided relief from the clap-trap usually thrown upon a long-suffering public by yodlers and that class of comedians. The char facter of "Hohenstauffen, as in- terpreted by MT. Clement. is in a meas ure a creation. He presents a type of a true German gentleman, educated, refined and possessing all the tender sensibilities and senti-
 nents of that people. Last night a large audience witnessed the produc- tion and applauded repeatedly the very amusing and at the same time touching situations. Mr. Clement did some very clever acting. His reading was almost perfect. His gestures and expression were natural and not over-done and his stage positions effective.
 MT. T. F. O'Malley as Napoleon Lafayette Randolph" was excellent
 His makeup was great and his read ing all that could be desired. His
 work as the old time plantation darkie was thoroughly appreciated by a Southern audience, and that is saying a great deal.
 Miss Faltz was viyaeious and amusing as "Flora May Randolph, :" and Miss Hillman deserves praise for bestowing great care upon thank less part.
 MT. Clement has with him q
 wonderfully trained company, and is to be congratulated upon the fact
 His change from tragedy to comedy was a surprise to his friends. How ever, success seems to attend him in his New Dominion.
