thai, and four children, three boys and
one girl, are the fruits of this union.
When Breidenthal came to Kansas
he devoted his time to loan and in
vestment schemes, loaning great
amounts of money to the farmers of
southern Kansas. His business meth
DDS were above criticism, and his hon
esty was never questioned by anyone
who had dealings with him. About
eight years ago he became connected
with socialist colonization scheme,
which had for its object the purchase OF
lands in the state of Sinaloa, Mexico,
where it was proposed to establish
colony on the Bellamy plan. Breiden-
thai, c. b. Hoffman and other Kansas
reformers went into the movement, and
one shipment of people was made to
that country. Several eastern socialists
were connected with the movement.
About 16O people from this and adjoin-
ing states went to Mexico and located
the colony on the Bay of Topolobampo.
For two years an effort was made to
grow crops and money was sent there
to keep the people through two dry sea-
sons, but finally it was decided to aban-
don the plan.
About this time Mr.. Breidenthal was
in the saddle managing the populist
party and he gave up the Topolobampo
scheme and devoted his time to politics.
In 1892, when the democrats and popu-
lists fused on the Weaver electoral tick
ct and the populist state ticket, LEVEL
ing was chosen governor. Prudential
was rewarded with the Office of state
bank commissioner. His appointment
was for four years. When Gov. Morrill,
came into Office two years ago he en-
deavored to remove Breidenthal, but
the supreme court, which was repub-
lcan, sustained the populist chairman,
and he is still in that position.

A unique tricycle. cab has made its

ever, soon noted it's usefulness, and
took kindly to the new vehicle.

The construction of this tricycle. cab
is rsimilar to the tricycle. wagons used
by grocers and bakers in New York for

two hind wheels support carriage
frame containing cushioned seat and
a support or platform for resting the

under the carriage frame when not de-

A folding hood is also secured to the
carriage frame in order to protect the

One of the latest has resulted in secur-
ing a photograph without the aid of
camera.
These photographs are produced by
an electric discharge from an inductive
coil. The object is placed on the seDsi-
tive plate and contact is made by con-
Meeting the apparatus with a battery.
photographs of coins and other metallic
substances have been made in this way.
The coinis placed upon sensitive plate,
the plate resting on sheet of metal
connected with one terminal Of the coil,
with the other terminal connected with
the coin. A discharge of one or two
seconds has been found sufficient to
produce an image Of the coin. A halo
produced by the radial discharge ipys-
riably surrounds the image on the coin.
