Another Perpetual Motion Device
Philadelphia Record.

Thinking he has evolved perpetual
motion, Fred Shollenberger, skilled
mechanic at Paradise, rejoices.
Upon frame work he has placed q
wheel composed of seventeen hollow
spokes, equal distant. In each spoke
a lead bullet is placed, and as the
sspokes are almost S-shapped, nine
bullets roll to the ends and eight re-
main at the axle of the wheel. Thus
the wheel is kept going continually
by the weight OF the one odd bullet.
Shollenberger thinks that by the
use OF more wheels and heavier bull.

plished.

ana successful manner. When the
Hon. Frank II. Hitchcock was sci.
ected by the National Committee
as chairman, he was confronted by
condition that no other leader had
been required TO face. The policies
of the administration. together with
tacit understanding on the part of
the candidates OF the respective par
ties had made ii impossible for great
corporations to contribute anything
toward the campaign. This sentiment
developed until it gradually included
men connected with great Trusts or
corporations so that 1t is almost
next to impossible TO secure large
fund with which to conduct great
political campaign. But with re-
narkable business Sagacity and pow
er Of initiative Mr.. Hitchcock has
nducted this campaign so intelli-
gently and successfully that it will
stand as a model for all future cam
paigns. 1t has been purely cam.
paign Of education and Mr. Hitch
cock Is TO be congratulated that his
plan Of campaign has at last been
demonstrated to be the wisest that
could have bcen adopted.

Some Of our would-be leaders have
been endeavoring to encourage the
Negro % commit the same wrong
OF which he himself has too frequent
" been the victim. They have in.
sisted that the Race should condemn
President Roosevelt beyond pardon,
for the one act in his whole public
career which they consider a mis-
take and an Injustice to the Negro
soldiers. His manly stand in de-
fense Of the Race on countless other
occasions; his broad and liberal ut
teranccs nour behalf in public
speeches and In executive messages

OF this one-at most-mistake of

gratihed, it is only necessary to point
to the luxurious magni6cence of the

ton and Oriental ease combined
dainty boudoir and cozy cafe, library
and mi Ladye's" escritoire on wheels
and all under one roof. AS the pres

he is ready and willing to pay for it,
but it must be "the best" for he is
critical.
