INVENTION MAKES
MILLIONAIRE Of
R. R. FIREMAN

Escanaba Mich, Sept ia struggle
for years against poverty and to combat
enemies who sought to steal his secret
had it's reward yesterday when James
Deylin. a Northwestern road fireman.
working for "A salary of $50 month be-
came practically millionaire by the sale
OF a patent for a reversible rotary steam
turbine engine
The patent was sold to the North Ger
man Lloyd. the Hamburg American and
the Cunard Line Steamship companies,
through the firm OF Lawson, Walsh az
Lawson of New York, for $4,000. In ad-
dition Devlin signed a contract by which
he will receive $50 a day for a hundred
days 10 superintend the construction of
the first engine. The invention of Dew
} lin makes the rotary engine reversible,
which is the end for which inventors have
been striving for years.
The change in the new invention from
former patents made on the engine is In
the method of apply steam by means of
alternating cutoff valves.
lie Is one OF the most peculiar charac-
tiers Escanaba has ever boosted He is OF
an extremely retiring disposition. with no
close friends, and but little is known OF
his life before he came TO Escanaba eight
years ago TO become n fireman OF the
Northwestern railroad.
lie boarded his savings in order that he
might purchase material for working
models, and many times denied himself
the necessaries OF life In order that he
might carry out his ambitions TO perfect
his engine. On one occasion nearly two
years ago. after giving a successful dem
fraf aft n f..
Devlin learned that an attempt was be-
ing made TO steal his idea, and although
the invention was not then brought TO it's
present state OF completion he blew Il up
with dynamite and burned all the draw
ings that he had prepared
Since that time up 10 March Of this
year when he began the construction OF
a final model, he burned all drawings pre-
pared by him and carried the entire idea
OF the invention In his mind.
The invention was completed early in
June, and on June 10 patent was Issued.
