new STANDARD FOE.
Light and Heat Made Cheap by New
Electrical Invention.

milwaukee,, Wis, Aug. 10.-Science has
round weapon against the Standard
Oli trust more potent than the big stick
or President Roosevelt, even backed up
py the hne infiicting possibilities of
Judge Lands court. The invention of
new battery by Frank c. Curtis, a
milwaukee boy, will put the petroleum
preuuct out of the market. as too ex-
penslve, either for light, heat or power.
Inc Curtis invention is to be exploited
by company formed here with S., O00-
600 capital all of which is said to have
been subscribed by such men as Presi-
dent Marvin Hughitt of the Northwest
ern railway, President d. Underwood of
Car company officials, and other such
corporation men.
When the invention came to the
notice of the railroad men interested
about year ago, they allowed tests to
was brought to the notice of Mr.. Under
wood through the fact that a friend of
Curtis was a boyhood chum OF the Erie
railroad official, and Underwood iu-
terested Hughitt, when an examination
of the. battery seemed to promise a
good future. >
. Mr.. Hughitt then prepared for expert
menting on Northwestern cars. The bat
terry has been In operation on the North
western for three months and on the
Pullman cars for an equally long time.
and seems to be the light of the future.
The battery is composed of a new alloy
for the electrodes, and a new solution.
which develops the current desired, up
to high degree of voltage. 80
The plan is to make batteries for in
staliation in houses, where single bat
terry will be sufficient to light and heat
the entire structure. An equipment for
an enire house is said to cost but $780,
and the solution five cents a cell. each
cell lasting indefinitely. In automobiles
the battery is used to produce the neces-
airy power, and it has been tried sue
cessfully here also.

CATS ARE. DYING FAST.
Heat Is Proving Too Much for the
Feline Tribe.

Hard as this weather is on human
kind, 1t is still harder on the members
of the feline tribe. More prostrations
are reported among the ranks OF the
latter. T. d. Humphrey reports the
death from the heat of three fine
thoroughbred maltese cats belonging
to his wife. These cats were of the
best breed in Kansas. Mr.. Humph-
rey says further that his grocer re-
ports the death of four plebeian cats
due to the heat of yesterday. It is an
open question what effect this news
will have upon the conduct of men.
If cats can not stand the heat, then
obviously there will be none in that
lower world and those who have night
after night been unable to sleep be-
cause of the untimely melodies of the
back fence nightingale will want to
start there at once. Thus this wealth
er even affects the question of theol-
Ogy.
