around windlasses actuated by a 800
horsepower steam engine. The Sc
curity Of the operation OF the appara-
tus Is assured by several ~instantane-
ously acting brakes, which also control
its motion. Tho engine also runs a
dynamo, the current of which will sup

The electric communications, START
ing from the ground, are effected
through cables that follow of the
frames and end at the axis. From this
point the current Is transmitted to
the periphery by cables. and to the
different posts Of electric distribution
by circular plates and contact
brushes. The processes of Illuminating
every part Of this huge structure fur

revolution in twenty minutes, inc!u-

is obtained through a system Of stair
ways and landings SO arranged that
eight cars can be filled and emptied
simultaneously, without any blockade,
in less thar one minute. Each car is
42lla feet in length.

CLOSE CALL FOR REPORTER,

His Interview Was All Right. Though i
Had Never Taken Place
From the New Orleans Times-Demo-
The most painful experience in my
career when 1 had been in the bust
ness only three months" said an old
reporter, land the city editor assigned
me to interview big Northern politi-
clan who had dropped into town en-
route TO Frisco. l rushed over to the
hotel. saw my man and he promised
to give me talk at $50 p. M, so that
evening, after supper, l was fool
enough to go out to see my best girl,
thinking l would be back in plenty of
time for the appointment. AS bad luck
would have it. we had a quarrel. and
when we get it patched up and looked
at my watch it was after 10. 1 was
Mortified. l grabbed my hat, flew to
the hotel and was informed that my
man had been in bed an hour. Merciful
heaven! What was I to do? To own
up meant certain discharge and dis
grace and, on the spur of the moment,
I had a desperate inspiration. Why not
fake UP an interview? The big man
was going away early in the morning
and if he ever saw the article it was
dollars to doughnuts he'd ignore it al
together. So, without apprecating the
enormity of my idiocy, l wrote up the
terview, but 1 handed it in feeling like
felon. Next day I was sinking to the
office, nervous as a cat. when whom
should I meet but the distinguished
politician himself, bound the same way
| felt my hair stand on end, but. to my
unbounded amazement he addressed me
cordially
That interview was very satisfac-
tory, he said very accurate indeed
and he invited me to have q drink. 1
construed his remarks as bitter sar-
easm, and supposed, of course, he had
prepared some horrible revenge, but I
went along, mechanically, like man
hyprntized. In the cafe he seemed
cnriously embarrassed.
= Blu the way he said, confidential
ly, I didn't say or do anything unusual
last evening. did ~
Unusual gasped. II don't I'M
derstand.'
L asked he said, smiling. because

Boulder, Dec. 4.--The headline of an ar

When there Is a lack Of Electricity in the
system you are sick. My Belt is to supply
this lost Electricity. The only trouble
heretofore with electric belts and batter
les was that the current did not penetrate
the system, hut was retained upon the
surface. which caused frightful burns
and blsters. I have done away with al,
that. My Belt has soft. silken, chamois-
covered sponge electrodes that render
this burning and blistering a physical i'm
possibility and allows the entire current
to penetrate the system as 1t should. The
electrodes on my Bet cost more to manu-
facture than the entire belt of the old
style makes. When worn out 1t can be
renewed for only e cents. No other belt
can be renewed for any price and when
worn out is worthless.
