NEW BATTERY
Electric Device Gives Tremendous
Power, Says Its Inventor.
SIX RAN PIANO FOUR MONTHS

Twelve Cells Ran Automobile One
Hundred and Fifty Miles at Rsoharsa
Cost of 81, Declares Frank c. Curtis.
Says Basic Materials Will Last For
Years.
Frank C. Curtis, inventor of the new
battery expected to supplant present
devices for the furnishing of light.
heat and power, recently gave some
remarkable instances Of its ability, &C.
cording to Milwaukee special dis
patch to the New York Times.
For power purposes" he says,
eighteen cells by by II inches,
weighing about twelve pounds each. or
u total of less than $50 pounds, were
used to run an electric runabout in the
streets of Milwaukee over $50 miles
with one charge of the chemical solu
tion at cost of 81 for the change OF
solution.
Eight cells by by II inches We're
used in connection with the motor Of
the submerged type aud propelled the
boat for nineteen hours cOnsecutively,
or a distance Of about 150 miles.
six cells of this battery were put
on an electrical piano In conjunction
with a small motor and have been in
constant use, furnishing power for The
piano for upward Of four months, and
are still in active use and have been
recharged within that period at inter
walls Of two months. 1t Is equally sue
cessful in lighting experiments.
THE invention is the discovery OF
new alloys to form the electrodes, both
negative and positive, and also In the
combination of chemicals used in con
nection with the electrodes. The de
composition Of the chemicals in solu
ton furnish the electric current In as
large a quantity as may be desired
The power battery Is composed Of ma
terial that VIII last for many years,
the solution and ionite being the only
parts to be acted upon.
There Is no disintegrntion Of any
parts OF the cell except the ionIte cyl

Of this cylinder is u by u inches by

the present market price at cost not
exceeding 20 cents per cell These i0nits
plates are produced direct from the
ore by an electrolytie process which
precipitates the metal from its sui
phides In the form OF a sponge. which
is rolled into sheets. The process Is In
expensive and produces an alloy con-
sisting Of zinc. aluminium and eadmf-

than the metal, furnishes a cheap fuel

This was an order such as Casey
loved. He grabbed a pad, pulled on
his parka, and in a minute the 65 be-
low zero fog had closed about him.
The story appeared the next morning
That night tribe of interior Indians
had arrived In Dawson, and Casey
caught them within an hour after start
ing on his search. They told him of a
trip that winter after food far into
the heart Of a country no Indian had
ever penetrated before, away past the
circle and east Of the Mackenzie. 1t
was a country supposed to be haunted.
At any rate, the Indians and Eskimos
gave it a wide berth. and only necessity
of food drove them into 1t this time.
And they told how they finally reached
a great mountain on whose top were
the remains of a vast building like a
hundred villages built on a great ca
noe" as one of tie chiefs described
1t in the vernacular. The building
had been turned to stone, but was once
wood, sc the tribesmen declared. And
when Casey had found family Bible
one of the old kind with pictures OF
the scenes in the Old Testament-and
turned up the drawing of NOah's ark
one and all of the tribesmen grunted
with satisfaction and declared the boat
on the mountain was very much like
the picture.

donated by some of our public
spirited citizens, will make a very
good beginning.

children and every effort made to
substitute entertaining and whole
some literature that will be of last
ing value for the dime novel
and sensational weekly that seems to
hold such high place in the esteem

build up a flrSt-claSs library, but we
are confident that when the parents

growing up around US who will be
