The name of Col. McCord's regiment
has been changed to 1.-THE First Terri
torial Infantry" at the request of the
commanding officer. Col. McCOrd sent
a modest telegram of less than ten
words to the war department on the
subject. His signature and title at the
bottom of the telegram as follows:
'Colr mel Myron II. McCord, Command
ing the Arizona, New Mexico, Okla
homa and Indian Territory Reg imeut
of Infantry" was convincing. The
war department probably in the inter-

grams. promptly wired back that the
name of the regiment had been chang

THE STORAGE BATTERY,
The Analogy Between Street Cars and
Elevators,

The Analogy Between Street Cars md
Elevators.
F. ]. Sprague in the Engineering Magazine
We are finally confronted by the condi-
ton of supply and its source.
Railway service, street and suburban
particularly, is analogous to elevator
service. 1t is marked by frequent starts
and stops, sharp variations and quick ac-
ceierations and retardations. The load on
a generating equipment is varied and Sc
we're. This has recently led me to indorse
the use of suitable storage battery under
definite restrictions for isolated plants sup
plying lights and elevators, and to recon-
mend Its use in central station practice
particularly in distributed centers The re-
suit is apparently most encouraging
1t is unfortunate that for many years
the progress of the storage battery was
practically stopped by vexatious litigation,
and by an entire misconception of one of
Its highest fields of usefulness, which is in
general, service regulator or for short
period heavy discharge, rather than for
longtime storage and slow discharge. This
field of the battery is now more clearly
seen, and for the purpose of these remarks
batteries may be divided into storage and
regulating types. the latter being con-
structed with special reference to quick
charge and very rapid discharge, win
reasonable storage capacity. The improve
ments made recently have greatly improy-
ed the battery, increased it's storage ca
pacity and immensely increased its safe
discharge rate. These results, which will
be undoubtedly bettered, and with reduced
cost, will have far greater influence on
the application of electricity to heavy
traction than all the water power in the
world for many years, and until the cost
of fuel is radically increased In fact. ex-
cept in cases where water power is easily
available, and cost of fuel prohibitory, the
junction OF water supply is limited.

LINCOLN'S ANCESTORS,
Pennsylvania Home of the FOrefath
ers of the Martyr President.

Pennsylvania Home of the FOrefath-
ers of the Martyr President.
From the Philadelphia Times.
1t is a fact within the knowledge of very
few people that On the eastern slope of
the Allegheny mountains in Pennsylvania,
not more than half a dozen miles east
of Reading, in close proximity to Exeter
station, on the Philadelphia and Read
ing railroads, hundreds of people are daily
Iassing within a stones throw of the
ancient home of the forefathers of Abra-
ham Lincoln. All that is generally known
of the ancestors of Abraham Lincoln
points out that they emgrated to Massa-
chusetts, then to New Jersey and after
ward to Berks county, Pa From there
they moved to Rockingham county Va
and finally into Kentucky, where the Pres
1dent was born. An investigation proves
too, that the Lincolns were not always
poor, but that some of them were dis
tinsuished citizens of Massachusetts and
the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. of the Presi-
dent was a prominent and extensive land
holder in Pennsylvania
The reason for the frequent family re-
movals of the Lincolns is not well known
but II Is quite sure that they were Quakers
and, as Berks county and it's immediate
surroundings comprised good many peo-
pie of the same belief, it is probable that
they sought closer religious communion
tendencies. However this may be. deeds
and records are in existence which show
that Mordecai Lincoln bought 1000 acres
of land lying in the township from the
sons of William Penn. The exact bound
aries of the Lincoln purchase can be out
hned, both from original data and from
the knowledge of several of the inhabi-
tants who are still living in that section
The land was in the shape of a square.
and lay directly north from the river into
the open country to line of low hills
along the present Philadelphia and Read
ing turnpike. Its eastern and western
boundaries were formed by two small
creeks, the Antietam. and another stream
further east about half mile
Here Mordecai Lincoln erected a house in
the southeastern corner of his land 1t
was built of stone, and stands in a gorge
at the bottom of which the creek flows.
The house remains undsturbed, with the
exception of an addition, which was built
about 1900, and can be seen from the rail-
road before reaching Exeter station.

Col. Fred Funston in the Topeka Capital.
The first man 1 ever saw killed was
working one OF my guns in battle. He was
opening a cartridge box with a screw
driver, and he said 10 me, after he had
finished: Where shall 1 put the screw
driver" l had opened my mouth to answer
HIM when he sank down softly with a bull
let in his heart. That was the first man
saw die. l saw many others after that 1t
wasn't bad. You go into battle expect
ing to see that sort of thing and you are
prepared for 1t, so that it sometimes dis
appoints you in not being half as horrible as
you thought 1T would be. Wounded men
shot in battle do not make much fuss

The CurIey-Haired Juror.
From the New Orleans Times-Democrat.

1t is not generally known that there il
a well-defined prejudice against curly
haired men when 1t comes to choosing a
jury to try criminal cases. The prejudice,
when 1t is manifested. comes from the de-
Tense. When asked to explain the objec-
ton to curly-haired men a prominent prac-
t.tioner recently said: When 1 was Just
starting my legal mentor inculcated the
idea in me. He said that curly-haired men
had almost invariably been the pampered
darling of their parents and in their youth
had been so used to having their own way
that they had believed that everybody on
earth was wrong except themselves In
this way the seeds of opposition were sown,
and when they grow older they make it a
point to disagree with everybody and
everything. II anybody else on the jury
votes for acquittal they vote for convic-
ton, as a matter of course. They live on
combat and are as stubborn as the days
are long. A curly-haired man never gets
on the jury when / am defending a man
II can see him in time"
