door of your residence? Was this not
daily occurrence years ago? You
must answer this in the affirmative
This does not mean that there are less
worthy poor, but it does mean that
the imposter has been eliminated and
the worthy and necessary recipients Of
charity are getting better help than
you could give them personally.
Why It Was Organized.
In years gone by, our citizens dis
pensed charity in an, unsystematic
and indiscriminate way which resulted
in the city being overrun with beg
gars and the encouragement Of idle
ness among our own shiftless people
What has brought about this change?
When our citizens realized that
something must be done to stop this
constantly growing evil, meeting
was called of all the charity organiza-
tons of the city and a general organi-
zation resulted from that meeting and
thus the Associated Charities was
formed. This association has ever
since acted as a sort of clearing house
for all the general charity work of the
city. The citizen, instead Of giving
to every beggar that came, made his
subscription to the Associated Chari-
ties, and turned all callers for aid ov-
er to the Association for investiga-
ton and help. The Association en-
ploys a city missionary whose business
it is to Investigate all cases of suffer
ing and distress that are brought to
her attention This plan stopped those
who were unworthy, from going from
house to house, and from one organi-

Skies That Become Mines Is
the Perpetual Motion Answer

there to show that no wires make the
device go or that no other unseen ar
ticles are used to make the perpetual
motion device keep it's momentum.
The glass wheel and the glass blown
bulbs with the figure "9'' or So paint
ed on them turn to the left continu-
ously.
Back Of the wheel is card which is
supposed to inform the inquisitive per
son who is wondering why the wheel
turns without any visible means. 1t
reads as follows: "The g. going up on
the right becomes - going down on
the left. The g being SO much more
causing the wheel to turn continuous
ly."
Some of the people believe the card,
others don't, but at least the card is
as near as any one has come to true
solution of the problem of the little
wheels motion.
The device was made after long
years of study on the part of Mr..
Saunders, and it is now copyrighted
and patented In Washington. Mr..
Saunders claims it is the only machine
ever patented under perpetual motion
patent. He claims it does not run by
electricity, magnetism, temperature,
steam, friction or anything else that
any one can name offhand. but the
secret of the real reason it revolves is
locked in the bosom of the inventor.

Chicago, Sept. Ais the figure &C.
lighter than the figure "9?" Or, to
put it another way, is the figure "9'
heavier than the figure ''6?" Still
again, will figures, so placed on the
spokes of wheel that such figures
will be '9s' going down and '6s" go
ing up, keep the aforesaid wheel re-
volving continually without any mo-
tive power?
These thoughts were extracted from
the mind of man who yesterday
watched what purports to be a perpetual
motion device in full operation. The
machine is the invention of w. L.
Saunders, 1904 Fort Dearborn building
and he has had copyright and patent
on everything connected with the de-
vice in order to protect his invention
from possible rivals. He does not
state to what use his invention will be
put.
The machine is about IS inches high
and IL inches at the base. It consists
of thirteen glass spokes running from
a steel and cork axle, and at the end
of the spokes is a blown glass affair
with the figure "9'' on it from one
point of view; from another point of
view it has the figure "6'' painted on
it.
The machine, socalled, is guaranteed
to run as long as the materials in it
withstand the ordinary wear and tear.

A WHITE ELEPHANT
Offered to Roosevelt If He Will
Visit the Kingdom of
Abyssinia.
GREAT HUNT PLANNED FOR

Berlin, Sept 4.-Iidj Jeassu, crown
prince of Abyssinia, has invited Theo-
dore Roosevelt to a great elephant
hunt. promising to beat up a white
elephant for him to kill, and other
wise to arrange a splendid sporting
programme. This news has been
brought to Berlin by Adolf Mayer. a
kinsman of King Menelik Of Abyssin-
Ia, commissioned by the Abyssinian
government to purchase supplies.
King Menelik sent an invitation to
Mr.. Roosevelt at Washington to be his
guest, but Mr.. Roosevelt declined. ex-
planning that as he had refused the in
vitations of several European sover-
eigns he could not make an exception
of King Menelil. however much he
might desire to do so. 1t was then
arranged that the crown prince should
invite Mr.. Roosevelt unofficially. Be
fore Mayer left Abyssinia a mission
had been sent to hand this invitation
to Mr.. Roosevelt wherever found.
Horsemen to Beat Up Elephant
The ENJOYS of the King are empow-
cred to point out to Mr. Roosevelt"
Mr.. Mayer said today, that there is
unrivaled elephant hunting In Abys-
sinia. The crown prince will send
out 5000 horsemen to encircle an i'm
mense range of prairie and drive in
the elephants. Hundreds, and posi-
bly, thousands Of elephants could be
thus assembled. and there would prob
ably be one or two white ones In this
number. These beasts are not really
white. but merely animals Of great Wig
or who have lived to be gray-haired.''
When it was suggested that the
crown prince of Abyssinia was only II
years old. Mr.. Mayer replied that Abys-
sinians develop young. He declared
that the prince was an expert and adj
venturous huntsman. that he spoke
English. French and German. and that
he was quite capable personally OF
showing Mr.. Roosevelt fine hunting
Many stories have reached the court
