EARL STILL AT 1T.

The Detroit Free Press Lansing cor
respondent said last week:
estate Highway Commissioner Earle's
plan to have penitentiary built in the
Lake Superior trap rock district. where
convicts can be employed in crushing
rock for building good roads throughout
the state, was started on its way today.
A bill carrying an appropriation of $780,
600 was introduced in the house by Rep
resentative Stannard and Senator Smith
in the senate.
1t is proposed to build penitentiary
at Bette Grise, some twenty-five miles from
Hitchcock, where 200 acres of land has
been offered the state free, erect quarry
rock crushing machinery and dock facil-
tiles and employ about 100 of the vicious
convicts from the other prisons on the
contract system.
The plan is to sell the crushed rock to
municipalities for so cents per ton and
the claim is that the institution will be
self-supporting. 1t will be urged as pre-
ferable to prison binder Irvine plant.

IN THE ELECTRICAL WORLD.

The smallest electrical motor i'll the
world can be carried in the vest pocket
or worn as a watch charm.
The largest electrical motor in the
world was recently installed by the Gen
eral Electric Company for the Indiana
Steel Corporation. 1t is a 5000 horse
power induction motor.
The new tantalum and tungsten lamps,
placed on the market within the past few
months. have reduced the cost of incan-
descent lighting one-third for the same
amount of light.
About seventy different kinds of cleo
trio heating and cooking devices are
manufactured today for ordinary house
hold use.
The very latest in heating devices are
the baby milk warmer, combination
shaving mug and water heater, ard the
corn pepper.
The new type of electrical automobile
does not depend upon a storage battery
for power A small gasoline engine
drives generator, which in turn supplies
the electricity for the motors. The new
device simplihes the control and improves
the service.
Frozen water pipes are now thawed by
electricity.
An electrical apparatus for milking
cows has been invented.
Shoes can now be shned by electrical
power; the carpet can be cleaned by the
same force. An electrical device for
winding large town clocks has also been
placed on the market.
The largest transformers in the world
were made for the Great Northern Power
Company at Duluth, by the General
Electric Company. Three units of TO-.
900 horsepower each have been installed
and FIVE others are to be constructed.

A MANS IDEA OF LIFE.

A mans life is full of crosses and
temptations. He comes into this world
without his consent, and goes out against
his will. and the trip between the two is
exceedingly rocky. The rule of con-
traries is one of the important features of
the trip. When he is little the big girls
kiss him, but when he is grown the little
girls kiss him. If he is poor. lie is bad
manager if he is rich he is dishonest If
he needs credit, he can't get it; if he is
prosperous, everybody wants to do him n
favor. If he's in politics, it's for PIE; if
he's out of politics, you can't place him,
and he's no good for his country If he
doesn't give TO charity, he is a stingy
cuss; if he does, it is for show If he is
actively religious, he is hypocrite; if he
takes no interest in religion he is hard
ened old sinner. If he shows affection,
he is a soft specimen; if he seems to care
for no one, he is cold-blooded. If he dies
young. there was great future ahead of
him; if he lives to an old age. he has
missed his calling. The road is rocky
but man loves to travel it.

THERE will be no stagnation or hal

THERE will be no stagnation or halt
in prosperity on account OF the presi-
dental election of next year. This
statement is made in the Manufacturers
Record by Henry H. Rogers, and is re-
ceiving favorable attention in business
circles. Mr.. Rogers is an influential
factor in business affairs and his opinion
in the direction indicated is valuable.
1t is evidently based on the assumption
that the coming presidential campaign
will be accompanied by no probability OF
a political change. Ifa change is serious
" threatened there will be season OF
business waiting and business fear. The
present prosperity of this country is not
an accident or an act of special provi-
dence. 1t is the Legitimate result OF an
effort to secure it and to maintain it.
Suspend the effort or reverse it, and dit
ferent results will be produced. Repeal
of the Dingley BILL or any important
move in the direction advocated by the
opponents of the protective tariff, would
be such change as would very promptly
dispose of Mr.. Rogers very pleasing
prophecy.

However, it seems to have been

impossible to identify the indivi-

Undoubtedly there was at the time
mutually bad blood between a part

some of the citizens of Browns
