MEASURE TYPEWRITER SERVICE
New Device Which Promises to Make
Machines Plentiful.

Chicago, Jan. 22.-"Measured Type
writer Service" is the latest develop
ment of the meter system in business
and it is to be expected that before
very long, business men will no longer
buy typewriting machines at all, but
will lease them from a company the
same as they lease telephone service
and electric light. A man in Albany
system that records the number Of
"clicks'' the typewriter makes. and op-
crates something like the "taxi cab"
A business man desiring typewriter
telephones for one of the "metered
kind" A machine is at once sent up
and pretty young miss accompanies
it, She takes her dictation and gets
ready for work. A quarter is dropped
in a slot, and electric light flashes and
the machine is ready for work, and use
for half an hour AT the end Of that
time, a bell rings and in order to use
the machine for greater length OF
time, another quarter is deposited.
The money is in the machine and
is removed when it is returned to the
office. Machines put in for any length
of time are visited and enptied, and
the user never buys writing machine
at ALL Where the business man pro-
vides his own operator the slot is des-
ignated to receive a dime only, and
thus he pays for exactly the wear he
gives the machine, avoids the invest
ment and always has a new machine
in his office. When the time is up
or before the coin is inserted the ma
chine is locked tight, the money re-
leasing the locking device and lighting
the light at the same time. 1t is an
ticipated that this typewriter will be
especially valuable in hotels and public
places and that in the future writing
machines will be as plentiful in depots,
restaurants and other public places as
telephones are today.

Washington, Jan. 2S.-Startling de-
velopments in the plot to overthrow
the government of President Nordi,

secret service agents in New York, In
connection with the arrest OF Jose M.
Goirdani on a charge of counterfeit
ing Haitien money. The officers say
that they have ascertained that the
prisoner was agent for a formidable
conspiracy, whose operations probably
would have extended beyond the limits
of Haiti into Santo Domingo, and even
into Cuba had the revolution in Haiti
been successful, and the agents in New
York.
Chief Wilkie made a statement to-
day, giving the facts and circumstances
connected with the arrest Of Giordani,
which go to show that at the 1me or
his arrest Giordani had in his possess
sion counterfeit Haitien paper mon
ey, to the face value of 100000, two
thousand Remington rifles, and $780,
900 rounds of ammunition, all of when

FIRE At WATERLOO.
Hardware Stock Of sohisI & corso
Extensively Damaged.

Extensively Damaged.
Waterloo, Jan. 23.-A fire was dis
covered in the rear Of Schel & Cor
sons hardware store at about 1880
last evening, which for a time threat
ened to destroy one of the principal
business blocks of the city, The blaze
had gained good headway by the time
the department arrived. altho they
were on the ground within few min
utes after the alarm was turned In.
The fire was caused by an explosion
from a kerosene lamp which was
burning on a table in the rear of the
building. This lamp was left there at
night and at 8 o'clock, when MIR. Cor
son and Lewis Schiel closed the store,
everything, was alright. One of the
local officers passed thru the alley
at about 10 o'clock and no fire was
noticeable at that time, SO 1t must
have started close to 10:30, which was
about the hour the fire was discov-
cred.
The fire did considerable damage to
the hardware stock, the goods in the
rear of the building being ruined
as well as large amount in the
basement, which came in contact with
the fire. The largest amount of dam
age was done by smoke and water,
the entire stock being somewhat dam
aged.

WORK TRAMps ON ROAD.
Texas County Has Splendid Highways
to Commend System.

San Antonio, Texas, Jan. 23.-Re-
stricting the circulation of tramps and
petty criminals, and at the same time
extending the system of good roads in
this county, is the wise policy thai
has been adopted in handling petty
offenders The practice Of making
tramps and others guilty of misde-
meanors move on to the next town
is not conductive to checking the
growth of such parasites on the body
Industrial. Here all such offenders are
kept in convict camp on one of the
county roads and put at hard work. AS
result the finest road system in
Texas networks Bexar county from
this city, comprising 1855 miles of ex-
cellent macadam roads. The mutual
benefit of this to farmers and to mer-
chants makes it the most dmportant
public work Of the county administers
ton. This method of handling petty
offenders has resulted not only in good
roads, but has operated to keep down
petty crimes and to frighten away the
undesirable army of tramps that
would otherwise infest this city dur-
ing the delightful winter months.
