fecting the other, as in making turn.
The frame has circular upper portion
similar to fifth wheel and adapted to
slide on ring secured to the underside
Of the bottom or plate. A steering post
having wheel is inserted into a suitable
bushing in the bottom and secured in the
top Of the frames, so that the movement
Of the operating wheel will be transmit
ted to the forward axle. The axle is
provided with centrally arranged loop,
in which a flattened spoke is pivoted by
means Of a bolt which extends through
the sides OF said loop and through the
spoke. The loop is sufficient length to
allow the spoke to oscillate on it's pivot
back and forth toward the axle ends.
The spoke terminates at each end in
threaded shanks adapted to fit into
sockets of sprocket wheel which is loose
" mounted on axle between depending
guides, which are secured on the under
side OF the vehicle, and have grooves be-
tween which and corresponding wheels

sprocket bearing balls are placed. The
balls allow the sprocket wheel to revolve
with the axle between the guides.
II in steering the spoke happens to
stand vertically, the oscillation of the
axle will be on the pivots at the ends OF
the spoke. II the spoke is horizontal,
then it will oscillate on it's center bear
ing, and there will be no movement at
the ends. The connection thus serves as
a universal joint between the driven
sprocket and the axle, allowing the axle
to be oscillated back and forth to steer
the vehicle and accommodate itself to
the rough or uneven surface over which
,, the wheels may be passing. The sprock-
, ct wheel may be connected by either a
, chain belt or gearing.
Mr. Hoffman has received SO much en-
'couragement from leading firms regard
ing his invention that be has made appli-
cation for patents in most Of the coun-
tries Of Europe. 1t is understood he has
received some fine offers for his invention
and all his friends hope that he will get
the reward that his skill and ingenuity
deserve.

Cooper Popular.
in Nashville

The renal kable work OF L. T.
Cooper, who is fast achieving a nat
ional reputation and is now in the
south, has reached it's climax in the
CITY OF Nashville, Tenn. The news
papers oAthat city aud ofotbers in the
vicinity have printed columns devot.
ed to a description OF the work OF
his medicines IN the cure of various
diseases. The people of central and
Tennessee are greatly wrought up
over the results accomplished by this
young man through the medium and
OF his New Discovery Medicine
each day it is said his headquarters
are damned by crowds OF excited peo-
pie who are eager to speak with him.
> MANY stories, almost marvellous in
their import, have been told OF the
manner in which he has relieved loug-
standing cases Of Stomach and Kid
ney trouble, Rheumatism, Deafness.
Catarrh and other diseases. The 10.
PRODUCTION Of medicine with the
property OF relieving these troubles
has made Cooper the most popular
man in Nashville today, il reports
from that city are to be believed. The
TACT that be is q believer in charitable
work and is constantly on the look
out for some one needing assistance
has but added to his popularity with
all classes and made him almost the
idol OF the masses.
In the tales told OF Cooper's work
and in the articles which have ap.
peared in the dailles of the city the
names Of many people OF respect.
ability and prominence have been
mentioned.
Mr.. W. F. Anderson, 124 Third
Aveneue, North, perhaps the most
prominent automobile dealer in the
city and we'll known in business
circles, was amoung thoee who, 1t
was said. bad been benefited by the
use OF Cooper's preparations.

Upon being asked about the matter
he said: For nine years was a suf.
ferer from rheumatism. The disease
made rapid progress and seriously
affected the muscles OF nv back and
shoulders. In fact, for several years
| have been unable to maintain an
erect carriage and seemed to be grow
ing more bent and bowed each day.
At times l suffered excruciating pain
and was unable to be out or attend
to bueiness. For more than q year
have been in a condition that made
sleep almost impossible and lack OF
rest combined with the pain suffered
made me almost a mental as we'll as
physical wreck. Although l have
tried many remedies without avail
and was determined to let the die
ease run it's course was attracted by
the marvellous cures said to have
been made bv this man, Cooper. In
consequence obtained some OF his
medicines and have been using them
for about ten DAYS. The improve
ment in my condition is nothing short
OF remarkable. The muscles OF nv
back and shoulders are now relaxed
and stronger than for Ave years. 1t
IS now possible for me to walk about
as other men and have suffered no
pain for several days. No one. who
has not had similar experience can
imagine JUST how feel towards this
young man and it is impossible for
me to fully express my gratitude to
him. He has give me strength eu-cease
from pain when I had about lost
hope OF again knowing either"
Inquiry at The Pioneer Drug Store
who has the local agency for Cooper's
remedies, developed the fact that
there is large demand for the
preparation in this vicinity and that
some remarka able cures have been re-
ported in this city.

INJURED MAN WAITS
FOR DELAYED AMBULANCE
PASTRY COOK is STRUCK BY A
STREET CAR
Switchman at Fifth and Main Is
Charged by PatroIman With Caus-
ing Blockade While Wagon Was
on Way to Scene of Accident

Theodore Miller, head pastry cook at
the Hotel Angelus, yesterday was
struck by southbound Maple avenue
car on Main street between Fourth
and Fifth.
Miller sustained a fracture of the
frontal bone, conclusion of the brain,
and his left eye was laid open.
According to the statement of Pa
trolman Roy Allen, on whose beat the
accident occurred, the ambulance was
delayed for six minutes by the action
of Switchman Smith at the corner of
Fifth and Main streets. Allen states
that Smith signaled cars to come
around the corner of Fifth and Main
streets, which so crowded the streets
that it was impossible for the wagon
to pass.
Miller had been staying at a rooming
house at SIG Ruth avenue for several
weeks past. Although he was serious
ly injured and weakened by the acci-
dent. it is believed by the police sur
geons that he will recover.
1t would, however have been pos
sible to treat him to much better
advantage had he been taken to the
station a few minutes quicker than
was the case the police say.
Miller is a Belgian and he recently
arrived in Los Angeles from the east.

JOSEPH FORD WlTHDRAWS
Young Attorney Yields to Friends and
Abandons Race for AS
sembIvman

Joseph Ford, the young attorney
who has made an apparently winning
fight for the Republican nomination
for assemblyman in the Seventy-fifth
district, has withdrawn from the con-
test.
81 have no doubt l could get the
nomination if 1 remained in the field,
said Mr. Ford last night. MANY of
my friends will be disappointed to hear
of my withdrawal, as they have been
most loyal to me in the brief contest
we have conducted. Other close friends,
in whose judgment have utmost con-
fidence, have been opposed to my max
ing the race, and it is TO their impor-
tunities 1 am yielding. They insist
1 cannot afford to give up my law
practice or impair it to some extent
by going to Sacramento.
"I have weighed the question care
fully and decided to take their advice
and stay out of the contest. 1 am very
grateful to my friends who have stood
by me and want to thank them for
their loyalty"
Mr.. Ford's withdrawal leaves Writ
ually a clear field for Councilman
Percy Harmon, who is the machine
candidate for the nomination.
Johnstone Jones is not seriously con-
sidered by Hammon's friends. They
say the councilman will now win in a
walk.
