Mr.. Dunn, like the good trus repub-
iican he was, and is, relieved the
chairman of the Eleventh District
Republican committee from his peril
Gus position, and saved his party from
impending disgrace. Soon after this,
in the summer of 1896, MIR. Dunn was
requested by E, r. Belcher to accept
his proxy and represent him at an
important meeting of the State Gen.
trail committee, which he did, and in
his person only was the Eleventh Con.
gressional District represented. Did
Belcher give his proxy to man who
is not republican
If so, why?
In the presidential election Mr.,
Dunn placed a sum of money in
Belcher's hands for election day ex-
penses, and in other ways, to my GER.

lIcan cause, and yet we are asked by
Belcher to believe he 10 not a good re-
publican.
In December following McKinley's
election Belcher's views concerning
Mr.. Dunn we're expressed as follows in

him for the county committees en-

The following article needs no intro
ductory comment:
EDITOR TIMES From recent state
ments of E. r. Belcher, in his newly
acquired newspaper, it is made to ap-
pear that Mr.. FL. L. Dunn is not re-
publican. Mr.. Dunn is too we'll and
favorably known in republican orioles
here and throughout the state to need
any defence at my hands, but in JUS
tice to myself and the hundreds Of re.
publicans in this county who admire
Mr.. Dunn for his faithful party SER
vice, and for his many good deeds for
the benefit of my race and people,
and who have strongly endorsed him
for the custom house, L feel called
upon to say something on this subjec..
Mr.. Dunn is a member OF the county
committee, appointed at the instance
of E. r. Belcher. He is also member
of the Eleventh District Republican
committee, by Belcher's naming.
If he was not a republican why was
he placed on these committees by E..
r. Belcher He was a good enough
republican in the spring of 1896 to
place large sum of money in Bel
cher's hands, 5000 or more, for the
purpose of organizing the district for
the election of Mckinley delegates
and at the same time for Beloher's re-
election, as chairman of the district
committee, both of which results were
without doubt largely due to this
timely aid from Mr.. Dunn.

Mysterious Glass Balls.

The small island Of Billion, between
Sumatra and Borneo, has long been IA
nous for its rich tin mines, which are
controlled by the Dutch government In
describing the geology Of Billion be-
fore the Royal Academy Of Sciences in
Amsterdam recently Mr.. Verbeek gave
an account of the mysterious "glass
balls Of Billiton," which are found
among some of the tin orc deposits.
They are round, with grooved surfaces.
Similar balls are occasionally found in
Borneo and Java, as well as in Aus
tralia. Mr.. Verbeek thinks they. cannot
be artificial. and there are no volcanoes
near enough to support the theory that
they are volcanic bomba Besides. he
says, the CLASSY rocks produced by the
nearest volcanoes are quite different In
their nature from the material of the
balls. He suspected that the mysterious
objects were elected ages ago from the
volcanoes of the moon and afterward
fell upon the earth.

Mr.. Clarence Alva of st. Louis has
thought Of a little scheme which gives
q very good idea Of the manner in
which the earth is kept in space. Mr..
Alva says person may get the right
idea il he secures couple OF magnets
and places them directly opposite each
other so that the currents shall flow in
opposite directions. They should be an
inch or 30 from each other. The mag
nets should be rather strong and should
be of the same sine and strength. Then
the experimenter should make little
sphere Of paper or some light substance
and fasten two pieces Of steel or similar
metal to the ball, the metals being al
most exactly opposite. Then comes the
work of placing the sphere in the ex-
act center Of the space between the two
magnets. II the experimenter can do
this, he will have the sphere remaining
in the air without any visible means of
support. It is quite trick to get the
thing in correct operation. but Mr.. Alva
says it can be done.

DR.. Sanarelli, discoverer of tho bacil-

lecture recently delivered in Monte
video, declared tho dread disease to
be duo to microbe, which had been
named by him icteroid, and that it
was rarely found either in tho blood
OF yellow fever patients or in their
bodies after death, az IL easily disap-

the microbc was difficult, but bacteria
logical diagnosis was possible. Twenty
four hours cultures in gelatin were
recognizable without microscope. Tho
microbe was very deadly for animals,

PATENT APPLICATIONS.
The Vast Majority Of Those Sent TO Wash
ingtOn Are Rejected.

The Vast Majority Of Those Sent TO wash
ington Are Rejected.
The applications for patents filed av-
erage about 1876 day. There are 85
principal examiners, with perhaps 200
assistants. Every examiner and every
assistant examiner has his own special
ty. Let US take the case. say, Of poor
inventor living In Oregon. He makes
valuable invention and desires to OBJ
tain patent He sends his application
with $l5 to the commissioner Of pat
ents. It Is referred to the examiner hav-
ing charge Of that peculiar class Of in
ventions It is his duty to reject it if
anything can be found on which to base
a rejection. Nearly 100000 patents
have been granted in the United States,
and probably more than 1000. 900 in
the rest Of the world. II any Of these
anticipate the invention, the examiner
must reject the application. It is not
necessary that exactly the same thing
should have existed before, for If any
thing substantially similar can be found
the applicant must go to the wall. But,
more than this. If anything similar has
been described in any printed publioa-
tion, in any language, anywhere in the
world, or il without being patented or
described in print it has been used any
where in the United States, the exam
iner should reject.
The rub comes all the time upon the
degree OF similarity which will consti-
tute an anticipation Of the invention.
A tremendous responsibility, it will be
seen, is thus thrown upon the examiner.
He wants to be safe It is both his
pride and his duty not to allow patent
to go cut that ought to have been re-
jected. The consequence is that great
many examiners reject almost every

Several men gathered about horse

upon the prominence Of the beasts
ribs and general lsnkiness. The AMI
NAL belonged to farmer living near
Ypsilanti, and, IL was said. never por-
mitted grass to grow under It's feet on
the road. The farmer was not pleased
with the remarks and the strong In
ferences that the poor thing had never
realized tho sensation of corn and oats.
What do you call your horseT' was
asked.
"Cyclone, and don't he look itf' re-
piled the man from the rural districts.
"Cyclonel What namei He certain
ly looks ~ IL one had struck him.
"That's what happened to him, my
friend. II was just like this. You re-
member the awful breeze we had out to
Ypsilanti about three years agof This
feller was sucking colt at the time
and was in the barn with two horses.
The cyclone, regular old hummer, came
along and thrashed the barn of its legs
and dropped it nigh on to 100 yards
away. After the twister had raised all
the hob, fences and sheds 1t could we
went out to look things up The two
horses were stone dead and the colt
would you believe it9-was nowhere to
be found.
"Next day I turned over the hen
coop. which lay In the field half a mile
away. Right In that coop and laying
OH the door which faced down was the
colt. He commenced kicking when he
heard us, and we took him out in a
hurry. He wasn't scared bit, tell
you, and was cool as cucumber. The
neighbors say they, saw the coop goin
through the air and the colt after 1t.
The little feller caught the coop and
got inside of it to save himself, that's
what he did. That's the plain truth,
and II you don't believe it ask the colt.
Good day. strangers detroit Free
