BOLD
FORGER
WRITES

Albany, Aug. 1S--Albert II. Thomas,
the printer who is wanted in this city
for forgery, had not been secured at a
late houg last evening, though he was
located in Portland, from which place
he wrote several letters to different
parts nthis city. In writing, he used
stationery of the Hotel Belvedere, and
1t was at that place where Sheriff X.
L. White instructed the Portland po-
lice TO look for the fellow on Monday,
but for some reason they did not ar
rest the man when he was in their
reach. Thomas wrote TO Beam G. Ho-
gan, stating that the check ne had
given ,tnem on Saturday was worth
less. asking them to hold Il. for a
week, when he would reimburse them
for the amount given him. He stated
that his family had refused or neglect
ed to send him money when he needed
il, and would not until he did some
thing desperate. and II was this fact
that caused him to adopt the plan EN-
ployed by him to raise money for i'm
mediate use.
In letter to c. e. Sanders he
stated that he would make good the
amount of his purchase in a short
time. Other letters were written by
him to various parties in tnis city.
It now develops that he tried to
work of several OF those worthless
checks on different parties on sature
day night. and after disposing OF them
he remained in Albany until Monday
morning. leaving here with a member
OF tae demi-mOnlle on the local train

DISCOVERED NEW
POWER GENERATOR

Seattle, Wn, Aug. 1S.-After five
years of hard work and Experimenting
T. c. McLin, young electrician EN-
ployed at the Edison theater, on Sec
ond avenue, claims to have perfected
a machine that produces a maximum
of power from the minimum OF
energy. Mr.. McLin stands ready to
prove his claim and has built a model
of his machine, proving that he has
approached the perfection of perpet-
ual notion
His machine is not one of perpetual
motion itself, but can generate any de
sired quantity of power from ma
chine of very simple mechanism and
three electrical cells. Mr.. McLin says
that the simplicity of the invention
is what has caused him to doubt its
success until he constructed a model
and actually saw it working.
Mr.. McLin is a very modest fellow
and does not care to talk much about
his Invention, but, to The Star yester-
day, he outlined briefly the history
of his work and the result He says
that the machine is more of con-
trivance of switches and levers than
anything else. 1t would occupy only
very modest amount of space and
any number of horsepower could be
generated Only one man is needed
to watch the engine and regulate the
speed or power wanted,
Coupled with this invention, and
working with Mr. McIin in the power
producing machine, John Martin, of
Green Lake has perfected a power
increasing device that Is novel and
simple 1t consists of series of
cogwheels arranged in a most in.
genious way, that increases the num-
ber of revolutions of shaft according
10 the number of cogs employed.
According to MIR. Martins invention
the POWER applied at one end Of a
shaft will have been trebled by a
series of seven cogs and, by increas-
ing the number of wheels, the revolu
tions at the distal end OF the shaft
is Increased. The shaft comprises as
many separate parts as the number of
times the revolutions are increased.
In speaking of the combined inven-
lions yesterday, Mr.. McLiG said:
Il have been working more or less

five years or more. / have tried all

Mr.. McLin has not confined himself
entirely to his automatic power gen.
orator, but mas perfected and patented
several novel and valuable devices.
He recently patented a new railroad
tie coupler, and is working on an in
genious contrivance for arilroad sig
mailing. He is one of those modest and
young men, appearing
more as one who does a good deal of
instead of talking. about
what he might do. He has recently
shown a decidedly inventive and IN
genious turn of mind in perfectlng the
devices which he can boast at the
present time He says that he spends
lhe whole of his spare time in the
workshop he has arranged at his
home.

Returning, the special train will leave
Albany about midnight Wednesday.
The Knights are looking forward to
a very pleasant visit. II is believed
that there will be no contests for Of

promoted a step each. owing to the
expected retirement Of the present
grand chancellor. Such changes will
be made except in the case of the
grand keeper of records and seals, Mr..
w. H. Leopold Of Savannah. who will
in all probability retain that position.
The Savannah companies will enter
the prize drill, and as they have al
ways made a good showing in such
contests, and have been preparing for
the present one for some time, should
make an excellent showing.
