WoMENTs PATENTS.
Resume Of q Pamphlet Recently Is
sued on the Subject.

A pamphlet recently published by
the patent office gives list Of pat
ents issued to women by the govern
ment. The pamphlet is supplement-
ary TO those heretofore published
enS orlngs the list OF such iss ues up
TO March j last.
The office was established IN 1890
and the first patent issued to q wom-
an was in 1909, to Mary Kies, for q
method Of weaving straw with silk
or thread. Six years later one was
issued to Mary Brush for a corset.
1t was not until 1923 that more than
one patent year was issued to
women. In 1862 only IA patents
were issued to women, that being
the largest in any year up to that
time.
The war, however, developed the
inventive genius of women and the
annual number Of patents issued to
them increased rapidly. Many Of
them were for inventions for either
fighting or nursing devices. The
annual issue increased steadily year
by year. In 1870 it was 60, in 1880
over go, in 1890 over 200 and 1893
over 800.
From 1909 to 1888 women's inyen-
lions averaged 80 a year; from 1888
to 1892 230 year, and since 1892
2sOa year. The pamphlet gives a
classification of women's inventions.
This shows that wearing apparel
leads the list with 100 different pat
ents in 80 months.
Then comes cooking utensils with
100 inventions, furniture with So,
heating and washing or cleaning APP
paratus with forty-odd each, sewing
and spinning devices and building
apparatus with about 30 each, edu-
cational and medical apparatus, toys
and trunks about 20 each, and other
lines in which women have tried
their inventive faculties IRE baby
carriages, barrel and bicycle attach
ments, printing and bottling appa-
ratus, boxes and baskets, clocks,
flowers, horseshoes, motors, musical
instruments, plumbing and preserv-
ing devices, screens, stationery,
theatrical apparatus, toilet articles
and typewriter attachments.
Few of the patents issued to wom-
en- were for entirely new creations,
excluding those especially concern
ing women's work. Nearly all the
other patents were for attachments
to some previously existing device.

HARDY OLD SOLDIER
Walked from Indiana to Washington to
Get His Pension.


Get His Pension.
Christopher Columbus Cleveland.
aged eighty years, an eccentric
citizen Of Centerville, o., has Just
returned from a long and tedious
journey on foot. Cleveland was a
soldier in both the Mexican and civil
wars, and has drawn pension up
to the early part of last winter,
when for some reason he was cut off
the roll. Not having funds suti-
cient to pay an attorney to look
after his interests, he determined.
says the Cincinnati Enquirer, to
walk to Washington and make Der.
sonal inquiry at the pension depart
ment. Before starting upon his
trip, however, Cleveland walked first
to Danville, ILL.,, to visit his mother,
who still lives at the remarkable age
of one hundred and seventeen years.
This trip was made in the early part
OF last January, and he returned to
his home on February ~, starting
the day following for Washington.
He traverscd the National road, the
eastern terminus of which is Balti-
moro, and he arrived in Washington
in May. His pension papers were
examined and found all right, and
much TO his JOY he was returned TO
the roll. Cleveland did not tarry
long in Washington, but started
upon his return trip as soon as the
pension matter had been arranged
to his satisfaction. He stopped in
nany of the cities along the route
where he had friends, and many Of
them offered to pay his fare home,
but he declined their Kindness. in
sisting that his army wounds on his
side would be made worse and give
him pain should he be Jared by rid.
ing, Cleveland is rather frail in an.
pearancc, and he undoubtedly holds
the record for long-distance walking
when his age is taken into considera.

patsy Was Dumb Until Llit BY Bird


Patsy Slattery has long been
known as The dummy fisherman :"
Of the sea wall. As ia boy, says the
New York Press, his hearing was
defective and he never learned 10
talk with anything but his fingers.
He was more than usually intelli-
gent, and his parents were always
looking for some way OF loosening
his tongue, but SO long as be could
not hear other sounds there was no
chance Of his initiating them.
One day Patsy and another fellow
were out in boat duck hunting,
when something happened that
furnished the looked.for shaking up
.ofthe nervous faculties OF the tongue
tied youth. After shooting into q
flock Of ducks, in the haste to row
out after the game he had shot he
climbed over his companions gun
and discharged it. The shot went
over his head. but so close that sew
eral small pieces OF lead lodged in
his shoulder.
Just what took place in the
wounded mans mind, or what was
the immediate influence that it had
over his system science would 90 a
illong way to find out, for, when the
noise of the discharge died away, his
companion was astonished to hear
him shout "ducksl' In an almost
natural tone Of voice. 1t was the
first word he had ever spoken.
The wounds made by the shots
were quite severe, but they did not
begin to create the interest that was
felt in his learning to speak. Little
by little, with painful slowness, he
soon began TO use other words, not
enough to make really connected con-
iversation possible, but it was speech
for all that, and there was promise
icf anything, too, so long as he could
I,ise any words at all.
The duckshot that had been lodged
in Patsy's shoulder panied him a
good deal, and soon began to work
up toward the surface. He went to
the Fitch hospital day or two ago
and had them taken out. He made
a very favorable impression on the
doctors, who were naturally much
interested in such a peculiar case.
Patsy did not try to speak, but used
the finger alphabet. The bandages
did not feel just right after the CD.
GRAFTON was over, aad to call atten.
ton to them he did something that
fairly frightened his companion. He
whistled.
This had been his way of making
his wants known from childhood,
but as soon as he had begun to talk
he had given it up, and had not
whistled for quite long time. The
operation was finished to his salts
faction, and he went back to his
home on the sea wall, but he does
not speak now at all.

Silver Vases for Herotsm.

Hereafter the government will
recognize acte of heroism on the high
seas in behalf of citizens Of the
United States by the award of hand
some silver vases instead of gold
watches, compasses, etc, as has
been the custom in the past. 1t has
frequently happened that these
watches, fine though they are, have
been bestowed upon mariners pos.
sessing chronometers of a much su.
perior quality. The same is true OF
other navigating apparatus which it
has been customary to give in ac-
acknowledgement of valuable heroic
service to American seamen. The
state department officials, who have
charge OF this matter, have decided
TO substitute vases for other ar
ticles as an experiment, and, il it
proves successful, that style of
award will be adopted as the stand.

Fatal Balloon Idsni.


The balloon ascension atP ems
borc Wednesday proved a sad
affair. A man by the name of
Billy Kline or Billy Davis, who
was helping to initiate the balloon
became entanglea in the ropes
just above the parachute. and
was taken up. When about 800
feet high the balloon began TO
settle and Kline called to the
man in the parachute to cutloose
and get lis money, he would
come down all right, but when
the chute" was cut loose that
loosened the ropes which held
his foot and &c then only, had his
hands tc hold with. The balloon
rose very fast until 500 or 1000
feet from the ground when Kline
started to fall. The thud when
he struck the ground was heard
across the fair grounds. Some
thought he meant to suicide, -

MIR. McBee's Lecture on The Affairs and
Arches of Great EatAedrals. 81
The second lecture by.Mrs sIlas McBee,
last evening, at Metzerott's, on Church
Architecture" was even more interesting
than that Of the previous evening. Mr.. Nc
Bees theme last evening vas the interior
Of church architecture, and, as before, the
speaker declared that there must
be message and an inspiration in the
handiwork Of mason, wood carver and
glassmaker. The distinction between art
for arts sake and architecture for archi-
lectures sake was again dwelt upon, and
1t was made the clearer by an allusion to
Michael Angeles Moses, which, contrary
to the worlds great conception of the
prophet as the meekest man, shows
mighty creation, tremendous in its power,
and in no wise conveying the moral and
spiritual lesson expected from the charac-
ter. So, too, with the David, which was
pictured as a powerful man, instead of
spare. God-fearing youth, and, as Mr. Nc
Bee said, really made one feel sorry for
Goliath The controlling principle Of
church Interiors was shown to be unity Of
purpose, the one altar broad and high, so
that it could be seen of all who found well
come in the church.
The illustrations of many cathedrals. no.
tably st. Maria de Maggiore and st. Sophia,
showed the confusion of many affairs. while
the great cathedrals of Durham, Peter
boro, Litchneld, York, Notre Dame and
Rheims illustrated the splendid force Of
the single and emphasized altar. Through
all the Illustrations, which were magnificent
from first to last. the crowning excellence
of the Gothic arch, with it's point Of inspi-
ration and uplift, and the deep. welcoming
shadows" was apparent. The pictures of
the great window at York. with it's stone
styli four feet deep. and Its balcony, run
ming across the window and so frail and
slender that 1t seemed to be only tracery,
was one Of the most interesting Of the
evening. The wood carving in some of the
altar screens Of the English cathedrals and
the facades of some of the Spanish cathe-
drals was shown in great distinction and
beauty.
