Pixies on Patents.
How to get $500 and Perhaps
Make a Fortune.

We secure patents and to induce people to
keep track Of their bright ideas we offer
prize of one hundred dollars to be paid on
the first of every month to the person who
submits to us the most merltorious invention
during the preceding month. We will also
advertise the Invention free of charge in the
National Recorder, a weekly newspaper, pub.
lished in Washington, D. G., which has an
extensive circulation throughout the United
States ana is devoted to the interests of in.
ventors.
Nor so HARD AS 1T SEEMS.
The idea Of being able to invent something
trikes most people as being very difficult;
this delusion the Company wishes to dispel.
1t is the simple things and small inventions
that make the greatest amount of money and
the complex ones are seldom profitable. AL.
most everybody, at some time or another,
conceiyes an idea, which, II patented, would
probably be worth to him fortune. Unfor-
tunately such ideas are usually dismissed
without thought. The simple invention like
the car window which could be easily slid up
and down without breaking the passengers
back, the sauce pan, the collar button, the
nut lock, the bottle stopper, the snow shovel
are things that almost everyone sees some
way of improving upon, and it is these kind
of inventions that bring the greatest returns
to the author.
The prize we offer at the end Of each month
will be paid, whether the application has
been acted upon by the Patent Office or note
Every competitor must apply for patent on
his invention through US, and whether he %.
cures the prize or not, the inventor will hav
valuable patent.

a recent decision of local court, that
the Edmunds law against the cohabita.
ton Of males and females not legally
married was in force in the District Of
Columbia, and it is growing as the
number of arrests increase and has
made a regular boom in the marriage
market, as those who marry are not
punished. So far the arrests have been
confined to the denisons of the alleys,
but there are hints that the police are
making preparations to "go up higher"
and whispers are current Of contemplate
ed arrests which will, if made, create a
sensation, owing to the position of the
parties, supposed by their associates to
be of the highest responsibility, and, as
matter of course, to have been mar
ried.
The recent activity Of ex- President
Harrison and some of his friends has
stirred up the republicans no little. 1t
is now believed that Mr.. Harrison is
out for another nomination. With few
exceptions the men who are known as
the leaders of his party are opposed to
Mr.. Harrison's nomination, just as they
were in 1892. Then Mr.. Harrison had
the support of the Office holders, which
he will not haye next year. Still, his
supposed candidacy is worrying the 9TH
er fellows no little, and they cannot
hide it.

it is that well ordered telephone service in

the number Of points and people that can be
reached thereby and when once assured that

A vESTIBULE TRAIN WRECKED.
THE ENGINEER BRUISED AND THE
FIREMAN BADLY sCALDED.

All the Passengers Escape Without
Serious Injury-AH the Coaches
Leave the Track and Turn over
Except the Last SIeeper-A Rail
Claimed to Have Been Removed.
President Spencer Claims That All
the Recent Wrecks Are the work
of Enemies of the Road.
Macon, Ca. March 2o.-The southbound
vestibuled train on the Southern Rail-
way jumped the track this morning at
or near Jackson. Ca. and was almost
completely wrecked. No one was killed
and all the passengers escaped without
serious injury.
The engineer, whose name IS not yet
ascertained. was badly bruised. and the
fireman. Edward Roberts. was very Sc
riously scalded. Neither had time 10
jump. The engineer put on the brakes
and this saved the forward coaches from
being crushed by the sleepers. All the
coaches left the track except the last
sleeper. and all turned over.
Or. Rankin, surgeon Of the Illinois Cen
trail railroad, at Chicago was on the train
and gave the wounded prompt attention.
Dr. Rankins hand was bruised and no
other passenger suffered more severely
than he. The accident Is aid TO have been
caused by the taking out of rail- from
fhe track.
Atlanta, Ca. March 9-President Sam
uel Spencer Of the Southern Railway Com
pany. who has been here several days,
submitted to an interview this afternoon
on the subject of the recent wreck on
his system in Georgia, with special refer
ence TO the disaster near Jackson to-day.
"These wrecks" said Mr.. Spencer ARE
not the fault Of the railroad company and
we should not be criticised for them. To-
day the reports show that the spikes hold
ing the rails had been drawn where the
accident occurred. Then in the wreck at
Scotland a couple of weeks ago, switch
lock was broken and the opened switch
caused the collision. 1t is plainly evil
dent from these facts" he continued,
THAT the trouble we are having is due to
the work OF persons who desire to in
5ure the company regardless of the fearful
loss in human life that such method of
warfare would involve Who these per-
sons are we do not know, in fact have no
idea, but IL is the determination of the
company to discover them and to do so
we will offer a heavy reward for their
identification and capture. This reward
viii be formally placarded very shortly.
We not only do not know whom to sus-
pect. although there Is no doubt of their
reckless animosity. but are completely at
loss to understand the reason for the
animus. Although when the guilty ones
are identified the cause Of their desire to
hurt this company will doubtless be de-
veloped."
Vice President Baldwin and General SUI
perintendent Green have gone to the
scene Of the wreck to-day to make a
thorough investigation. President Spen-
Ger hopes they will be able to secure in
formation that will throw light upon the
perpetrators of the outrage and disclose
the identity of the Southern's enemies.

GEORGIA's PENSIONERS.
Applicants to BE Subjected to a Rigid
Examination.

Atlanta, Ga. March 20.-The forms Of
affidavits and lists of questions governing
applications for pensions under the new
pension law passed in December, 1894,
were issued from the executive depart
ment to-day. The tnterrogations, which
were especially prepared by Judge John
son to meet the exigencies Of the present
emergency at the direction Of Gov. Atkin-
son. are intended to weed out a wide row
in the large number of applicants for the
benefits Of the new law. The legislature
only appropriated money enough to pro-
vide for 500, but the estimated number
who claim the benfits of 1t in 1O1 counties
IS already over 1000. On account of this
large discrepancy between supply and de-
mand a most rigid examination had to
be established. Many of those who want
the benefits of the new law evil
IDENTIFY believe that it was intended
as a service pension. The applicants are
required to base their claims upon either
the ground OF age and poverty" inhrm-
ity and poverty" or blindness and pow
erty. They are required to go into details
showing how long they have been in such
condition, whether they are able to work
at all or not, and If they had any income
at all in 1893. and If so whathas become Of
it. The applicants must have the certi-
hcate OF witness, who is not only re-
quired to certify to his present physical
condition, but give his means of knowing
what he states. A physicians ahidavit
must also be attached and then the ordi-
nary of the county must finally certify
10 1t. The regulations are ironclad and will
doubtless have the desired effect of keeping
the new pension list within the bounds
OF the appropriation.

Kurtz was quickly aroused and followed
By her son went up to the roof. where the

aroused by the shouts OF Kurtz, had

Two sisters named Schamp found es-
cape cut or. The fremen spread a tar

REDwINE's DEGRADATION.
The Banks Suit Against the surety
Company Taken Up.

Atlanta. Ga. March 2o-The case of
the defunct Gate City National Bank,
which went to the wall two years ago as
a result of Cashier Lewis Redwine's de-
falcation against the Fidelity and Casu-
atty Company of New York, which was on
Redwine's bond, was called for trial in
city court to-day. BY consent the case
went over until tomorrow. The suit is
for $4,000 the amount of Redwine's bond,
the Surety company having refused to
pay the loss for reasons of their own.
What these reasons are will probably be
brought out in the trial. Thomas s. Moore
of New York, general counsel for the
Fidelity Company, is here to assist in
the conduct of the case. 1t is conceded
that there is a great deal in connection
with the Gate City failure that has never
been made public, and the defense of the
Surety Company for its action in refusing
to pay the loss on Redwine's risk may
throw new light on the case.

PATTERsON's TRAGEDY.
Another Version of the Killing of q
Negro by Mr.. McGee.

NEGRO DE Mr.. mcGee.
Waycross. Ca. March 2O.-Henry Daw-
son, colored. stood on a barrel at the
window of Miss Minnie McGse's bed room
a night or two ago at Patterson and tried
TO enter the room. His eyes glared into
the room and as a moonbeam stole into
the window and revealed the form of the
young lady he sprang toward her. The
fair sleeper awoke and screamed for help.
The negro threatened to murder her If
she did not hush. His threat did not avail
and the young lady's father went to her
rescue with a Winchester rife. The ne
gro had found It impossible to reach the
girls side, yet he stood there with his eyes
peering into the room. He did not see
the approaching figure behind him, but
was bent on forcing an entrance into the
room. He pulled at the window, but he
was so frightened by the young lady's
screams, his efforts were powerless
Mr.. MCGEE. the young ladys father, gave
the negro no word of warning but shot
him off the barrel. The negro staggered
off few yards and fell dead.
A coroner's inquest was held and the
verdict was justihable homicide.

FIGHTING THE sEABOARD.
The Pennsylvania Road Takes a
Hand in the Struggle.

Hand in the Struggle.
Atlanta, Ca, March 2O-The Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Company. that mighty
giant among railroad corporations. has
taken hand in the boycott against the
Seaboard Air line. which is under the
ban of the Southern Railway and Steam
ship Association.
A circular issued by the Pennsylvania
ordering its agents to discontinue the
sale of tickets to points on or reached by
the Seaboard was received here to-day
1t appears that the association is consid-
erably worried over the ineffectiveness of
the boycott so far on account of the injunc-
tion proceedings against the Nashville,
Chattanooga and st. Louis. and is ex-
peeted to knock the stuffing out of the
Seaboard and its rate cutting to the east,
which was adopted in retaliation for the
boycott. The Seaboard passenger rates
to Washington. New York and the east
have been just half the regular rate, but
the action of the Pennsylvania will hurt
their business a good deal. even at cut
rates, coming from the north and east.
