The Lennon Stock company closed
a very successful engagement here Sat
urday night and left Monday tor Ida
Grove to play a weeks engagement
there. They gave gooo satisfaction
while here and will be greeted by good
houses if they choose to play a return
date ON time in the future. Their
work was we'll balanced and the class
OF PLAYS better than that usually pre-
sented by repertory companies. Satur-
day night the house was rowded to Its
fullest capacity.

Denison for a weeks stand.)
FROM THE TINES.
We can inform our readers this
week Of the marriage OF A. F. kadoch
OF this place to Miss Lizzie Wendell
born, OF San Bernardino, California,
which took place at the brides home,
at IL O'Clock p. m. Tuesday. July 10,
1901. We are not in position to give
further particulars OF the wedding at
this writing.
P. D. McMahon returned last Sat
urday from Boyd county, Nebraska,
where he has spent a few days, looking
I'D a proposed route where a railroad
is to be built from Atkinson, Neb., to
Butte, a distance OF twenty-five miles.
Mr.. Mcmahon has the honor OF being
made president OF the company which
proposes to build the road.
Derr Holmes returned from benson
last Saturday afternoon after hay
ing served a thirty days sentence IN the
county Jail for drunkenness and dis
orderly conduct. 1t was hoped that he
would brace up and try and be a man,
at least for the sake of his family, but
he had not been in town an hour until
the mrashal was obliged to take charge
OF him for the same offense. He was
kept in the town Jail until Monday
morning when Mayor Bolien sent HIM
back to serve another thirty days in the
county jail.
1t is MOI generallv known that c. K.
Smith has for some time been at work
upon a so-called cold evaporation gas
lighting system, but such is the case,
and furthermore, he has succeeded IN
perfecting his apparatus, and some time
ago applied for a patent upon the same
He this week received his first returns,
~ 1.-1 .-l:,,@os tl,,+ he invention had
successfully run the gauntlet OF the pat
ent inspectors and had been found to be
an entirely new idea and therefore per
iectly patentable. and he was notltled to
send on his final papers, together Will
the necessary fees, and receive his pat
,ent forthwith. The system embraces q
reservoir OF peculiar construction, con-
tanning gasoline through which ali is
forced and thoroughly charged will
vapor and then fed direct to the lamps
by the same pressure which does the
charging. 1t will therefore be seen tina
the system does away with all smoke
oil and other ~annoyances on the par
of the consumer, including the SLOW
generating process, the lamps BENG al
ways ready for instantaneous lighting
thus making the plan equally prac
ticable for street lighting as inside pur
poses: for as is we'll known, the prin
cipal drawback in gasoline for stree
lighting purposes unde the presen
system (and for inside use for that mat
ter) is the tedious generating process
at the start. 1t will also readily be seer
that a system of this sort VIII prov
very economical, there being no I'm
necessary waste OF gas. which will b
a great advantage over the old plan
especially the individual lamp system
in which the heat from the lamp will, Il
all probability evaporate more gas fror
the supply tank above than IS con
sumed by the flame. Other and add'
tional economical features are, however
claimed for the new process; it beini
asserted that aside from producing tn
same amount OF light from hall tn
amount OF gas, the capacity OF tn
lamps are tripled and even quadrupled-
that is. it is possible to obtain three Q
four times as much light from a certal
sized burner and mantle under the me-
process that by the old and direct ger
orator method; while the operative fea
lures are so simple and easy that it
estimated that a small (probably a one
horse power) engine would be suttlcle1
to furnish gas for a town the size {
Manila, while a plant of the require
capacity for a large city might easily [
attended by one man. If the toregoln
statements hold good, it will be posslb
to erect a central plant in any town {
city and furnish gas to the consumer
cheaper than they can purchase gast
line for a private lighting system, y
with profit to the operators, and M
Smith is evidently in possession OF
very excellent thing in the patent rlgl
line. These claims. though seeming
extrayapant. are said to be amply bOrr
out by a working model. which is
regular and constant service at the re
idence OF the inventor. Mr.. Smith is .
old resident OF this vicinity and is we
known over a large portion OF IL
country, and has many friends who W
rejoice with him should his i%nyentie
fulfill its promises.-Manilla Repu
