FRANKFORT, KENTUCKY, SATURDAY. OCTOBER 27. 1906
AUTO LINE TO LAWRENCE
BURG.

When the two big automobile
cars made their initial trip to
Lawrenceburg, on Monday, they
found the road in such bad con-
dition. on the Franklin county
end, that the managers have post
poned the regular running of the
cars until the road can be put in
proper shape.
A big party of business men,
members of the Business Mems
Club, filled the two cars and had
II very enjoyable visit to the pretty
little capital of Anderson.
They were royalty entertained
by the Business Mems Club of
Lawrenceburg, and came home
greatly pleased with the outlook
for closer business relations with
that place.
In the meantime the freight car
will be run. for the transportation
of packages, at least part Of the
way, and, so soon as the road is
in condition, the passenger car
will enter regularly upon the BUSH
ness.

EDISON PERFORMS ANOTHER
MIRACLE.
Wizard Said to Have Solved Prob
lem Of Cheap Power for
Motor Carnage.

Thomas \. Edison has accom-
plished II surprise for the world.
He has worked out successfully
the problem of cheap power. He
promises to put on the market
within six months n new storage
battery which will enable every
man to travel in his own private
carriage at the cost of car fare,
says New York telegram.
Without danger. without break
downs, without cost, almost. a
carriage once supplied with the
new power, for 5000, will travel
without repairs for fifteen years,
for 100000 miles, if necessary,
says the wizard. He reiterates
the declaration that he has solved
the problem of congested traffic
in the big cities of the world, as
soon as he can manufacture
enough of them. He is erecting
two large factory buildings, now
nearly completed, and is install :
ing in them new machinery es-
pecially for the manufacture of
the motor battery.
In fifteen years from now the
horse will be curiosity: we shall
be paving 30 cents TO look at him
in side shows" SAID Edison to an
interviewer.
Il never believed that nature,
so prolific of resources. could pro-
vide only lead az Il material in
gredient OF the battery" said Mr..
Edison. Il have always found
her ready for an emergency, and,
based on this confidence that she
has never betrayed, | communed
diligently with her. One day L
discovered that nickel rust was as
good as lead. Then | thought |
had accomplished the task. >
But he hadn't to the s..tisfac-
ton of his commercial instinct.
The question of the weight of the
battery was most important, as
was that of its durability. Nickel
rust failed, other things failed,
everything the ingenious Edison
could, with his trained scientific
mind, conceive. failed.
"Then / tried cobalt. he said.
Cobalt being one Of the rare
metals, the problem was not
solved. | secured the country to
find cobalt in sufficient quantities
to warrant its use, and discovered
lots of il i'm Canada, in Wiscon-
sin, in Oregon, in kentucky.
Then | knew that | was all right.
Zone of the most difficult prob
lens in metallurgv is to separate
cobalt from the ores with which
it is associated. At present it is
done only at great expense, and
so. for the last few months we
have heen devising plan Of get
ting cobalt out of the ore cheaply
within ratio of cost already call
culated tor the price of each eel.
Now | can positively promise that
the new battery will he on the
market in the spring. The fac.
tory buildings are ready and the
machinery is being installed. y
The actual cost of recharginG
the new battery is matter of d
few cents per cell, the creates,
achievement being in making 4
motive power of light weight, il
compact shape, and, above all
endurable.

Saud True has new method of
catching catfish. He goes out to
Elkhorn Greek, gets some elastic
willow switches, clears the bank
of weeds, and sets snares baited
with chicken liver u few yards
from the water. The catfish
come out Of the water, swallow
the bait and start back to the
creek. The bending switches re-
act and jerk the fish back on the
bank. After several frultless
efforts the fish finally get tired
and submit to be gathered into
the bushel basket True carries on
his arm. They are readily sold
at one dollar pound.

CORKERS AND TWISTERS.
By Baldheaded Ike.

The old Steadmantown dirt
road, beginning on the George
town pike. near Blacks pond, and
ending on the Peaks Mill pike at
the Innes farm. is about three
miles long, and is the only high
way from Frankfort to Switzer,
as connecting two important and
populous sections of the county.
One mile of the road was mac
adamized years ago. and the
other two miles are rocky, rough
and almost impossible in winter.
1t is much travelled. Is the
county SO poor and the county
court So devoid Of public spirit
that it can not macadamIze this
two miles of road? Where are
magistrates Noel and Graham?

The magnificent drapery of
green, gold and scarlet spread
over the maple trees by the chang
ing leaves of fall is the challenge
of coloring made by nature to
painter TO initiate and to poet to
describe. And yet how fruitless
for the one to attempt to'paint
and for the other to picture the
gorgeous scene that nature has
spread SO lavishly before admiring
eyes. The variegated carpet
made by the falling leaves is fit
for the tread of queens and
princes-richer in hues than
comes from the weaver's loom and
light almost as the down that
falls from the thistle's bloom.

MERELY SUGGESTED.

The real effect Of the south jetty
upon the bar channel of the Columbia
river not yet being apparent and being
remote to the point Of blind guessing,
why would it not be within the realm
Of reason to use the next and better ex.
pedient Of putting the dregder Chinook
back on the bar to do some real ,tangi.
bic conspicuous work! 1t costs inf.
nitely less to maintain her there than
it does to build jetty work, for the time
involved. and there is the certain ad-
vantage of having something done in
the way of digging and holding a chan
mel just where it is needed. This is
merely a suggestion; but even vague
promptings have been known to ma
terialize to the degree of potency that
is desired, though this is far cry and
a faint one. However, reiterstion may
increase the tone until il is heard in
quarters where it will do the most good,
