7Ae success of a great invention
often depends upon some auxiliary
discovery to make it practicable With
out the telegraph, modern railroadins
would have been impossible. Without
the air-brake, the high speed of the
great express trains could not have
been permitted. To-day the electric
automobile, which is much heavier
than the steam-power carriage, would
be given a great impetus by the dis
covery of something better than the
present rubber tires. The great weight
and swift motion of the carriage upon
rough streets cause the tires to wear
out rapidly. Which will come first, a
lighter electric storage battery or
firmsr elastic substance for the tires?
The history OF inventions suggests
that one or the other will appear At an

:. DENIED.
Judge Rogers Not Satisfied
That Mrs. MCGOugh is En-
titled TO Relief.

Judge Rogers has denied the petit
ton of Mrs. Margaret I. McGough for
a divorce from her husband Thomas

titioner admitted that her husband
had provided in most generous way
for herself and his family.
An affidavit from John III. McGOugh
was read at the hearing OF the divorce
petition. The former partner of the
defendant stated his sister-in-law was
kind and loving wife. that his for
mer partner had been cruel to her and
kept dogs chained TO the bed posts,
