AN AIR LOCK.


A patent for pneumatic lock has re-
Gently been granted TO Daniel W. Dear
dorm and Charles y. Teetor of Hagers-
town. Ind. This lock is designed for use
on express safes in transit. the bolts be-
ing held in position by air pressure from
the train pipe. If the pressure is sud
denly reduced a spring valve releases the
bolts, pulls the door shut and instantly
locks the safe. The combination is set
at the beginning of runs. and is trans
mitted by man or telegraph to the agent
who will receive the safe at the end OF
the run. Under no circumstances will
the messenger in charge of the safe be
given the secret of the combination that
unlocks the safe after II has been locked
by the air pressure. The combination is
set and the safe locked in the office before
1t is given into the possession of the mes
senger in the car. Connection is then
made with the air brake. a turn OF the
dial sets the tumblers, which are held In
position by tina air pressure. the safe is
then opened by the use of the combina-
tion in the possession of the messenger.
When the safe is open route the mech
anism. which is very simple. that will
close the door and lock the safe is held
in position by the air. From the safe
cord runs through the entire length OF
the train. In case the train Is attacked
by robbers, the engineer. conductor or
any person ON the train can immediate
~ and securely lock the safe by pulling
tins cord. when the safe is so locked It
cannot be opened by anyone except the
agent at the receiving end. In case OF
wreck or derailment. the safe will be
locked by the withdrawal Of the air and
the contents preserved intact from fire
or robbers.

Lake Of OH.

What is said to be the greatest
oil discovery ever made is reported
from Alaska. Some gold prospect
ors several months ago ran across
what seemed to be a lake of oil.
The lake was fed by innumerable
springs and the surrounding noun
tains were full of coal. They
brought samples to Seattle and
tests proved it to be of as high
grade as any ever taken out of
Pennsylvania wells. A local COM
pany was formed and experts sent
up. They have returned on the
steamer Topeka and their report
has more than borne out first re-
ports. 1t is said there is enough oil
and coal in the discovery to supply
the world. 1t is close to the ocean,
in fact, the experts say that the oil
oozes out into the salt water. 1t is
said that the Standard Oil Com
pany has already made an offer for
the property. The owners have filed
claims on 5000 acres and are natu-
rally very much excited over their
prospective fortune.

The King or Traitors.

I. V. Powderly has received his
pay from President McKinley-the
obligation is cancelled, the debt is
paid and the people now know the
value set by this erstwhile labor
leader upon his honor, remarks the
Boise Sentinel. The price of his
treason was the office of commission
er of immigration at the port of
New York, to which place he has
recently been appionted.
Among the long list of traitors
whose names blacken the pages of
the worlds history, the name of
Terence V. Powderly stands out in
bold relief. Endowed by nature
with keen intellect, inherent quail
ties of a leader, he rapidly rose from
the ranks of common laborer to
be their adviser and trusted leader,
until his name was synonym for
loyalty and watchword of hope in
millions Of humble homes. When
the great battle came between right
and wrong-between Justice and in
justice--between liberty and slavery
when the labor and organization
of years was to be tested in the fire
of a great decisive battle at the polls,
this leader, made great by the loyal
trust of his fellow workmen, sold
his honor for place, turned traitor
to the friends of lifetime, and now
the reward has come. With the
heart and nature of treacherons
serpent, he takes to his new office
the hatred of every friend of the
people, the loathing of those with
whose money he was purchased.
When the final day comes that
all men must meet and the gates of
hell swing wide for his blackened
and perjured soul, he will be
welcomed as king by all the Judas
Iscariots and Benedict Arnolds of
countless ages past.

A Calamity Howl.

A few days ago man in this city
gave poison to his little daughter
aud then committed suicide. Why?
Because he was ont of employment
and could obtain no work. He was
intelligent, fairly we'll educated, had
held place in the middle walks of
life and was not merely willing but
was eager to labor to support him
self and his child Fate, or some-
thing worse, was against him and
he sought refuge in death. A short
time previous, in San Francisco,
Professor LIE Conte, all artist, starved
to death. He had won high rank
in his profession, was an educated
gentleman and had been received
into the best society. Yet, with all
these advantages, he could not sup
port himself. He was too proud to
let his friends know his condition,
and so he starved to death, starved
in the midst of plenty because he
could not get work. 1t was only a
few weeks ago that two girls, sisters,
took poison and died together be-
cause they could not earn enough
to support themselves. There was
another alternative-thereis is always
the black alternative, no matter
how bad times may be-but these
girls preferred death to life of
shame. Let us trust that they found
rest and relief from the too heavy
burdens of human life. Sixty sui
cides in one month, two a day, is
the top notch record in Chicago
this Summer. Does any one sup
pose that these unhappy and des-
pondent people committed suicide
because times are getting better, be-
cause they had renewed hope in
the future? If to tell the truth
about these things, to sound the
note of warming, to demand reform
is preaching the gospel of discon-
tent" if to do all this is treason.
then those who hope to tide over by
shutting their eyes to ugly facts
must make the most of it. There
has got to be an awakening and a
change, or a tremendous upheaval
will come shaking our social strnc-
ture to it's very foundation.-Los
angeles Herald.

D. L. Bliss came down from
Glenbrook, Lake Tahoe, Wednesday
evening, says the Republican. Mr..
Bliss was going to Reno to meet
his son who was coming out here to
spend his Summer vacation, he be-
ing in attendance at a college in
the East Mr.. Bliss said that the
men who are surveying the pros
pective railroad had got down as
far as "Uncle Billy's" place, which
is seven miles up the river They
will be through in ten days and
then he will know whether or not
the Tahoe railroad will be built.
If he decides to build it, he will
begin right, away. He said from
the survey thus far things looked
favorable, though, if it required too
great an outlay, it would not be
built.

Texas silver Man Turned Down.

Some time ago it was stated that
ex-General Manager Campbell Of
the |. & G. N. r. e., one of the
greatest railroads in Texas, resign
ed because he could not conform
his political views to those OF Mr..
Gould, as was expected OF him.
That story has never been ques-
toned. The reason is because il
was founded on cold facts.
Since Mr.. Campbell's resignation
a ageneral shaking up has been go
ing on in the management oi
the road. Hon. John M. Duncan,
the general attorney has been let
out. The firm of which ex-Gov-
ernor j. S. Hogg is member has
been stricken from its roll. all Of
these changes can only be explain-
