Il is stated IN the plea Of the plaintiff
that the manuscript covered 1000 pages
Of paper and that IL contained the story
OF her life.
1t is not stated in the plea Of the
plaintiff whether IL is the story Of her
life that IS valued at $4,000. but there
seems to be M impression among the
officials Of the express company that 30
is the latter.
II IS recalled by the attorneys Tor the

The Barnes Outft' is the name by

many of them have intermarried.
It all happened because Mother.

LIGHT ON THE CLOUD.

There's never an always cloudless sky.
There's never a vale so fair,
But over Ii sometimes shadows lie
In a chill and 5Ongless air,
But never a cloud overhung the day,
And flung its shadows down,
But on its heaven-side cleaned some
ray,
Forming q sunshine crown,
1t is dark tn only the downward side;
Though rage the tempest loud.
And scatter its teTTOrs far and wide,
There's light upon the cloud.
And often when IL traileth low,
Shutting the landscape out,
And only the chilly east-winds blow
From the fOggy seas Of doubt.
ThereW come a time. near the setting
sun,
When the joys of life seem few;
A rift Will break in the evening dun,
And the golden light stream through.
And the soul a glorious bridge will
make
Out OF the golden bars.
And all its priceless treasures take
Where shrine the eternal stars.

in motion the lifting power Of the new
propeller IS far greater than it's own
weight and that Of its motor.
DIT. Julian ?. Thomas. VINO has jIst
purchased Major MmeTs airship. pro-
nounces the Freid motor a remarkable
piece Of mechanism and believes that IL
Will be Of great value 10 successful
aerial navigation. Freld. who was long
associated with Thomas a. Edison, has
been working on this propeller for over
three years The models he now has
are too small 70 carry a man, but he is
sure that with larger ones he can lift
any weight desired.
The inventor is now in comm anieation
with the German government and other
European powers with the idea OF hav-
ing his propeller used in war balloons.
One OF the advantages claimed is that
he can send "A balloon up in any wind
and that il viii remain stationary at any
height. A technicality in the methods
OF procedure in the United States Army
practically pre- cludes It from taking ad-
vantage of the invention. although It
was first offered to IT,
The propeller FTeid bases his hopes
upon is a long tapeTing AFFAIR looking
like the thread of a greas screw with
the supporting center left out. With a
motor underneath It rises perpendicular
ly and will continue to rise as long as
the power is kept up. ANY stopping OF
the power causes 1t to descend slowly.
For practical use as a man-carrying air
ship il IS the plan OF the inventor to
place the propeller horizontal and with
an aeroplane above go in any direction
he desires
