The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1907-01-09

The exceedingly heavy rain and
thunder shower last evening worked
havoc with some Of the work of diff
ferent contractors. A large amount of
water fell and washed sand and
dirt in the excavations for sewers and
pipe lines and raised the water level
considerably in the large excavations
for buildings that are under way.
Fortunately the weather is not severe
and the fact that many Of the build
ings leak and that the tents, very few of
them shed water did not bring the
great suffering that it otherwise would
have.

Hodges and Nummerdor have applied
for a property on Fifth avenue and
Virginia street and expect to erect a
three story store and fiat building.
They were wise in their selection of
a site, the place selected being along
the street where most of the men will
pass to their work, crossing Fifth av-
enue. Virginia street is the street
that will cross the river being ex-
tended through and viii run under
the viaduct of the railroads. This will
give easy access for the laboring men
to the plants.

1 plant of the Columbia Graphophone com pany, of which the Commercial Grapho- phone company is a branch, which is To- cated at Bridgeport, Conn. This plant l employs nearly 30o0 men and turns out 1 over 6O00 records and several hundred graphophones every day. In speaking of the way the records are manufactured he said:
 'I have found very large number of people who do not understand just how | the records are made, and who think that each individual record has to be spoken or played into. In fact, there are sev eral hundred records made from the orig ina one. The process is simple, though the materials used are. of course, a pat ented product.
 "The original record Is made, and gold mold is then taken of it. This mold
 is made of pure gold and Is put onto a copper base, making the mold about one eighth inch thick. This is for the cylin- der records. The record is. of course, hollow, and after the mold has been on it for few moments, cold water Is poured into the hollow, which causes the record to contract and draw away from the mold. The record is then slipped out and you have the mold complete.
 "The way the other records are made from this mold is similar to pipe-making. A core is placed in the center of the mold, leaving a space the thickness of the rec ord between the mold and the core. The records are made of a patented wax, which is heated to a temperature of 400 degrees. When 1t reaches this tempera- ture 1t is poured into. the space between the mold and the core, the manner in which it is poured being done in a way to prevent any air holes from appearing in the record
 "The core is also hollow. and after a few minutes wait cold water is poured' , into it, which causes the record to con- tract and be slipped away from the mold. Each record is played from six to a dozen times before it is sent out Several hundred records can be made from one mold. The flat records are made in the same way, with the exception that the molds are flat.
 "rhe wax is veritabe tone mine cap able of reproducing any sound. The tone is graduated according to the depth and breath of the cut which the recorder makes and Is produced by the point trav- cling through the cut. Perhaps the real invention of the graphophone Is the dia- phragm-the small plate to which the sounds are transmitted and which works the recording point. The sensitiveness of this diaphragm to the slightest sound is remarkable.
 'The sales of tho Commercial grapno- phone are becoming greater and greater every day. The first sale was made in Birmingham little over a year ago. and while we have already done a large busi- ness, each month Is better than the pre- vlous and we are expecting 1t to be even better in the future. It's convenience and time saving qualities appeal strongly to the business man.

Jonesboro In More Trouble.

If anything ever passes the quaint and quiet little town of Jonesboro situated between Bessemer and the mines, it eer- tainly has to have on a hurricane rush. Jonesboro gets everything going from scarlet fever to mad dogs.
 Tho latest development in this burg IS fight that Is being waged on the new principal of the school, MT. Norris It appears that MT. Morris was elected, but the election did not suit a great number of the citizens. A mass meeting was held last week and a vote was taken to see just how many people wanted him to hold the position and how man,- wanted him to go down and take the count. In the first count there were thirty-two against him and two for him. Another meeting was held last evening and the vote was taHen once more It developed in this case that there were twenty-one people that wanted him put out and one person that wanted him kept in. Business was certainly going some. and some of the arguments were dreams of oratory. After much talk and little business 1t was decided that a request should be made upon the mayor asking him to have the Jonesboro school closed until another principal could be secured The matter Is still in a red hot condition. and oilskin gloves have to be used in order to handle it. The outcome of the affair is awaited with interest

LIBRARY BOOSTERS
 RIDING THEIR TIME
WHEN WEATHER GETS COOL THEY WILL SWOOP DOWN ON BIRMINGHAM WITH SOME IRRE- FUTABLE ARGUMENTS.

The Free Public Library association Is arranging plans for hot campaign which Is to be inaugurated within the next few weks Work in this direction was al lowed to drop during July and August, on account of the extremely hot weather, but now that cool days are setting fin the members of the association are pre- pairing to wake things up.
 It Is believed that the circular letters sent out to the ladies have had the eff feet of getting them interested, and in the opinion of member of the exec utive committee, this is "enough said" The school children will also be lined up, especially the High school students, and great results are expected from this source.
 The canvass to be made will be from to shop. If a man Is found who don't believe that a public library is a neces- sity for Birmingham, and Is therefore unwilling to dig down into his pocket for part of the wherewith with which to build one, he will be attacked with a hand of persuasive orators equipped with arguments that can't be refuted and he will either have to come across or leave town.
 The amount to be gone after at thls time will be s60,0OO, which will be used to construct the building and fill it with books. The city is to give lot, which wil. probably be in Capitol park. After the association has completed the con strucrion of the library it Is to be turned over 10 the city. It Is ultimately proposed to have a library costing $300,00
