THAT PARkER-'-'MuLuM FIGHT
Pup" but He Says "You Ought
To See Barney"

Kid Parker is a curiosity now. Since
his fight with Barney Mullin last
Friday night at Phoenix, B. c., his
face is so swollen out of shape that
he is the real battle scared hero, says
the Spokane Press. The Kid says
Barney looks so bad he's afraid to
show up. Here's the way Parker tells
it.:
There we stood, toe to toe, both
trying to settle our debts. Barney
wanted to show me that l couldn't
lick him when he had all his meat
on and I tried to snow him that I
could. 1 didn't block anything ex-
cepting with my face-neither did
Barney. His tin-ear Give one too),
looks like a Philadelphia ham UNI
trimmed. About the third round
that Irishman hit me a glancing
blow on top of my head. / did a
double turn in the air and hit the
canvas, but was up again like a
rubber ball bounces. l was sore
and slipped Barney one almost like
it and he hit the floor like an
Oliver chilled pillow going along a
stump on the farm. Barney was
mad before that, but-wow! He
came with a rush and, as usual, I
stopped more with my face. The
ring was so slippery that in the
seventh round when everybody

were sliding around like one OF

NEW YORK, Oct. 26.-Thomas
Edison has accomplished a surprise for
the world. He has worked ont suc-
cessfully the problem Of cheap power.
He promises to put on the market
within six months a new storage bat
terry which will enable every man to
travel in his own private carriage
at about the cost of carfare. Without
danger, without breakdowns, without
cost, almost, carriage, once equipped
with the new power for 5000. will
travel without repairs for fifteen wears
for 100000 miles if necessary, saws
"the wizard
Mr.. Edison reiterates the declara-
ton that he has invented a storage
battery which will solve the problem
of congested traffic in the big cities
Of the world as soon as he can manu-
facture enough Of the batteries. He is
erecting two large factory buildings,
now nearly completed, and is installing
in them new machinery especially for
the manufacture of the motor battery.
Horse to Be q Curiosity.
I'm fifteen years from now the horse
will be curiosity; we shall be pay
ing so cents to look at him in side
shows" said Mr. Edison to an inter-
viewer.
Last year you were sure that you
had solved this problem?" he was re-
minded.
YES last year I was sure" replied
Mr.. Edison, but now 1 am dead sure.
There is a difference between the two.
It's one thing for instance, to be sure
and another thing to be-Wall street
sure.
Il never believed that nature, so
prolific of resources, could provide only
lead as material ingredient Of the bat
terry" said Mr.. Edison. Il have al
ways found ner ready for any emer-
gency, and based on this confidence
that she has never betrayed, COM
muned diligently with her. One day
1 discovered that nickel rust was as
good as lead. Then l thought 1 had
| accomplished the task"
Hok.IA q I ueLv Find
But he hadn't to the satisfaction Of
| his commercial instinct. The question
of the weight of the battery was most
important. as was that of it's durability.
Nickel rust failed, other things fall
ed, everything the ingenious Edison,
! with his trained scientific mind could
conceive failed.
"Then 1 tried cobalt" he said, and
punctuated the statement with a broad
smile.
And it worked?"
ut certainly did, but cobalt, being
one of the rare metals, the problem
| was not solved. 1 secured the country
TO find cobalt and discovered lots of it
| in Canada, in Wisconsin, in oregon
and in Kentucky. Then I knew that
| I was all right"

 Benjamin De Witt in 173S. wrote to the Philadelphia Academy that he had found many varieties of stone on the shore of Lake Ontario He said 1t was impossible to believe that so many kinds of stone should have been formed by nature in one place and out of the same kird of earth.
 They must have been conveyed there by some extraordinary means. He thought some mighty convulsion of nature. as an earthquake or perhaps the bursting of a vast lake pouring It's waters over lower attitudes. had produced this confusion and disorder In the rocks.

OK tne science a century ago
 The last annual report of the Uni ted States National Museum contains a contribution in the history of Ameri- can geology over 500 pages In length. It is written by Dr. George P. Mer- Till and tells the story of the rise and progress of our geological studies from 1785 to the present day.
 Few persons know how little pre-. liminary training our pioneers in geol- ogy had, how few books were accessi- ble to them, and how complete their lack of the information with which the geologist of today begins his ca reer Dr. Merrill calls attention to many of their errors and crudities, not to belittle them, but to show how in those days geological science groped almost blindly toward the truth.
 few examples may be given here of the frequent bewilderment of those observers as thS~ studied the complex phenomena of the rocks. They were much perplexed, for example, by the glacial drift scattered over the north ern third of this country. It was two generations later that this drift was proved to have been carried southward
