The services of handwriting ex-
perts'' will doubtless command lower
figures in the market after the set
back received by the experts dur
ing the Molineux trial. The tendency
to convict men upon the statements of
men who think" they know thing
is growing less daily and it is safe to
say that expert testimony of this
character will be greatly eliminated
from court proceedings in the future
in New York State at least.

Let not every young man find his

fallen to certain jockeys. At $780, 600

Turns Gas on Automatically

In factories and other places where
it is desired to turn on gas at given
times for heating or lighting purposes
it has heretofore been customary for
an employe to go around and light the
various burners before the working
day begins, and where the gas is used
for heating purposes, such. for in
stance. as melting the lead in type
setting and typefOundlng machines,
delays in commencing work were liza
Bile to occur through neglecting to
light the burners sufficiently early.
Now Oddur Nigfus Sigurddson.
Danish inventor living in London, Eng
land. has patented a simple apparatus
for automatically turning on the gas
at the proper hour. an alarm clock
being used to release the weight
which opens the valve. AS will be
seen, the clock carries a lever sup
port, with one end of tie lever sus-
tanning a weight and the opposite end
confined beneath hook on vertical
rod. AS soon as the alarm mechan-
ism of the clock is put in motion the
rod moves sufficiently to release the
lever from the hook, 'vnen the weight
falls to the cushion in the bottom of
the casing, at the same time opening
the main valve in the gas supply pipe
to allow full force to the heating
