FRIEDRICH TAMoLIA DUBoIs is

afflicted with three political parties

hold them all down.

A NEW LIGHT.
Lighting Apparatus that Promises 10 Supersedo
Electricity to a Large Extent

A Lighting Apparatus that Promises 10 SupersedO
Electricity to Large Extent
The T. K. Little establishment
in this city has just completed the
putting in of gas lighting appar-
atus that SO far has proven such
a success that it bids fair to super
sede kerosene altogether and will
be a rival of no small consequence
to electric lighting, especially in
small communities. This new
light is called Acetylene, the ma
chinery for its production being
manufactured nv the Acetylene
Gas company Of Niagara Falls
The introduction of this light into
this community was made by Mr..
c. H. Sebree, who first succeeded
in placing lights in the residences
of Howard Sebree and w. r.
Sebree. Mr.. Little investigated
the new light and was so well
pleased that he at once made ar
engagements for the lighting of his
store by the same method. He
Immediately entered into a con-
tract with w. R. Sebree for a 10
light plant and it was placed in
working shape this week. 1t was
lit up for the first time Thursday
evening aud there is not the least |
doubt that it possesses all that is
claimed for it. The large store
presented an appearance on the
inside akin to daylight and the
street and sidewalk in front of the
establishment shone brightly in
comparison with the old method.
A large crowd was attracted to
the scene by the noticeable effect
over the old method of kerosene
lighting. Each jet gives a 16
candle power light and it pene-
trating whiteness showed off to
excellent advantage the handsome
of this splendid establish
ment. Mr.. Little informed us
that the cost of lighting will aver
age about 7 cents per hour for 10
lights. The plant cost, including
piping and setting up, about $12S.
It is much safer than kerosene
and requires very little attention
to keep in working order, requir-
ing recharging only once every
three months.
Mr.. Little is one of Caldwel's
most progressive and enterpris-
ing merchants, and is fully abreast
Of the times in moder improve
nents. His establishment is one
Of the leading in this CITY of its
class and is always well stocked
with late and seasonable goods
The doors will be thrown omen
his evening to the public and Mr.
Little extends a cordial invitation
o one aad all to call and see the
new lights at their best.

Ryan-Sterne-Curtis crowd. He was for
several years a stenoGrapher in the pension
office at Washington. When it was ascer-
tanned definitely that Leland was to get
the penson office the other fellows thought
it would be a good scheme to send Wilker-
son out here and arrange it so that he
would become LeIand's stenographer. In
this way, they could keep track of his
m~aneuvers. The transfer was made, and
an application was made to transfer Tracy,
the old steBographer In the Topeka pen
sion office, to Washington. This was done
to get rid of the only stenographer in the
office. Then it would be easy sailing for
Wilkerson. Leland fell onto the scheme
after Wilkerson had got here. and refused
TO let Tracy be transferred. Wilkerson
has been doing regular clerical work in the
office, and now he wants to go back to
Washington. He has made the application.

place here will be filled by some clerk in
