MAKES HIT
Business Men Call Meeting to Con
slider the Patenting OF the Keno
sha Mans Invention.
CLAIM A CHANCE FOR BIG MONEY.

Harry Raymond seems to have made
hit with his device to harness the
waves of the ocean, for as result of
the exhibition Of the invention a few
days ago, several of the leading bust
ness men of the city have taken a
deep interestin the invention and a
meeting has been called for next
Tuesday evening, at which time plans
will be made to raise money to finance
a company which will patent the con-
trivance and make an effort to inter-
est big Capitalists in the scheme.
The meeting will be held at the law
office of James Cavanagh, and at that
time Raymond will make PROPOSE
ton to the promoters of the company,
and seek to have them take charge of
the invention and promote it. 1t is
claimed that during the short time
that the invention was on exhibition,
several experts in this sort of me
chanics were brought to Kenosha by
interested capitalists and these men
declare that Raymond has finally
solved the problem of utilizing the
waves of the ocean for manufacture
ing purposes. While these men claim
that many improvements will have to
be made before the invention will be
entirely practical, they insist that the
cardinal principle adopted by Ray
mond is a..step in the right direction.
Should the hopes of the men now
taking upgthe continuance be realized
Kenosha is destined to make a great
contribution to the world of sspower, !"
and the..futureEwork of the company
will be watched with a great deal of
interest.
Raymond is satisfied that he will be
able to offer an attractive proposition
to the business men, and he believes
that it will be accepted by them. Ray
mond himself is handicapped on ac-
count of..tl1e fact that the work has
beenlpursued by him without funds.
