Robbers Get Good Sum and Make Their

OTTUMwA, Feb. 2.--Bradley's Bank
at. Eldon was entered by burglars at
an early hour in the morning, the safe
blown open with nitro-glycerine, and
from five to seven thousand dollars
in cash, all on hand, taken. The
burglars escaped. Ono of the robbers
was hurt by the explosion, as an
amount Of blood on the walls of the
bank indicates. A team of horses and
vehicle were stolen from Rich Bros
grocers, by which the thieves, in all
probability, made their escape from
the city. The entrance to the bank
was made through a side window on
tho main street. The brick vault was
opened with tools, which the robbers
left behind. The team and buggy
taken by the robbers were found about
noon, near Sugar Creek, between
Eldon and Ottumwa. Three strangers
were seen in Eldon the previous night.
Two were tail and one short. One
wore light overcoat. 1t is now
believed that they came to Ottumwa

IOWA PATENT OFFICE REPORT.

DEs MONIES, Feb. A valid patent
cannot be granted to one person when
two OF more persons are the inventors.
or vice versa, to two or more persons
when only one person is the inventor,
excepting when the inventor or
inventors as the case may be make q
formal assignment and therein direct
the patent to be issued jointly to the
inventor or inventors and the
assignees. Whenever an invention is
the joint product of different minds, 4
joint patent must be applied for by all
the inventors, and if patent for such
an invention is taken by any number
of such inventors less than the whole
number, such patent is void. An
invention is essentially product of
mind and not Of hands, and he who
suggests an essential feature or TEA
lures of an art, machiue, manu- cture
or compound is the inventor thereof,
although another person may cmbody
such suggestions In tangible materials.
1t is often difficult to determine
whether IN invention is joint or single;
but W hen two or more persons are
engaged together in the making of an
invention, and an invention results us
the effect of their joint consultations,
each invention is joint, and the courts
will not go into all the minuti9 of the
case, although, of course, one or the
other of the persons must have been
the first to specify this Or that part, or
the whole of the invention, in words,
or by drawings, or by model, or by
actual reduction to practice. Valuable
information about obtaining, valuing
and selling patents sent free to any
