TROLLEY POLE HARP
Invented by Percy BIiven, Putnam
 Motorman.

Several men in Killingly and Putnam are interested in the proposed forma ton of a corporation for the manufac- ture and sale of a trolley pole harp of which Percy Bliven, a motorman on the Putnam lines of the Connecticut company, is the. inventor One hun dred sample harps are being made by a firm in Cincinnati and they are ex- pected to be delivered here in short time. They are to be distributed as samples for trial on many electric lines thuoghout the country and are expect ed to create big demand.
 The Bliven hra9 is great improve ment over any other type in use. It is a device attached to the end of the trolley pole that holds the wheel against the feed wires above the cars. The wheels in present use have a rigid axle, and because of this fact. become wobbly before they are wholly worn out and easily jump from the wire. The wheel in the Bliven harp has re- volving axle that is set in ball bear ings, and it has been found by test to wear so well that its life is several times longer than the old style. It also has the advantage of being easily re- movable bby< snaping open the harp. An old wheel can be removed and a new one inserted in one minute. Un- der the system in present use 1t ms necessary to take the entire trolley pole out of the top of the car and re- place it with another pole with new wheel when change is desired.
 Men who have seen the Bliven wheel In use. are confident that u will be quickly adopted as soon as it's value becomes known to street railway men.
 MT. Bliven has had the harp patent ed in the United States, Canada, Mex leo. Great Britain and in several coun- tries in continental Europe.
