improvements and Refinement
of Details to be Seen in
New Models on
Exhibition.

Two models OF 4c and 20 horsepower respectively
are being SHOWN BY the White Company. Inc
principal mechanical change in the new cars as
compared with previous White steam cars Is the
engine In the place OF one standard type OF valve
rnecbsnis, another standard type of valve mechan-
ism Is used. In former years the engines used IN
White cars were fitted with the Stephenson valve
motion, which was sctUEted by eccentrics on the
crank shaft as also the pumps. The new
engine IS fitted with the Joy valve motion, which is
actuated directly from the connecting rods and the
pumps al! OF which located on the left hand
side OF the engine driven by the levers OF the
valve mechanism. This construction permits
OF a great simpIihcation OF the engine. The number
OF parts IS reduced almost to halr OF those for
merly necessary considerable weight is saved. all
eccentrics are done away with and the cylinders
are brought close together. permitting the use of
short one-piece crank shaft. The crank shaft
Is a one-pece forging OF tool steel There only
two main bearings to the crank shaft. This is
most advantageous construction. because when
three or moro hearings are used in any shaft there
is always a possibility that they may get out Of
alignment The main bearings OF annuar type
and may be removed from the crank shaft by tax
ing of the lock nuts and lock washers.

CHAPTER V.
HONEST MAN AND KNAvE.


"W WISH to talk to you, Edward, ''
began Mr.. Durant. His manner
was serious. and Pinckney. who
had known him so long, realized
that he was seriously put out about
something At such times there was
nate-that way was absolute obedience
and prompt replies to his questions.
Pinckney became all attention at once.
"Yes. sir. What is it?" he asked.
Durant consulted the paper In his
hand.
The royalty on this Rhinestrom
gun" he asked-"am l correctly in
formed about itT'
How much did you think it wasT''
asked the manager.
According to the papers, we pay a
royalty of $4,000 for every gun six
inches or under and $1,000 an inch ex.
ira for every one over six. SO for
these twelve inch guns we are to forge
we must pay $4,000 each"
That's correct, sir" said Pinckney.
"It's too much" declared the steel
magnate sharply
His manager ventured a protesting
gesture.

Durant shook his head.

It, Edward. To make a profit we have

The ConyiCt's Daughter.

A play that will live forever is
The Convicts Daughter" which
will be produced at the Shelton
opera house on Monday, September
27th,. for one performance. A true
story Of human life is revealed and
should you go back for a visit to
the old home place, each and every
character true to life in the play
would be seen living by you. The
stern old Judge, the quaint old jury
men, and the ever dutiful town mar
shall; the village gossip who knows
it ALL and the clever tricky villain,
who steals his miserable presence
into the happy peace loving com
munity and by his cunning almost
brushes the heart OF the beautiful,
innocent daughter OF the man who
he has sent TO prison. A play that
touches the hearts of all
