Romances Of Progress
By Albert Payson Terhune
PETER cooPER-And the Man VINO Put Earness on Steam

A curious and fearsome object. the
sight of which made women swoon
and set children to screaming, plowed
Its way through the streets of London
on day In 1903. II was called
steam locomotive" and consisted Of
four-wheeled carriage bearing one
of the then new high-pressure en-
gines; a six-foot boiler, a single a.
inch cylinder and great stack from
which gushed a torrent OF black
smoke and fire. Guiding this weird
continuance was a gigantic, plain
featured man-Richard Trevithick.
When the practical use of steam
was still new thing. Sir Isaac New
ton had prophesied that some day this
odd power would propel wagons. TAX
ing the place OF horses. But no one
took much stock in the forecast Near
ly 100 years had passed before the
idea was taken up. Then, in 1863, a
scientist, Cugnot by name, made a
road wagon, driven by steam. But 1t
was not practicable, and was regarded
merely as plaything. 1t frightened
horses so badly that man with red
flag was always sent on ahead of 1t to
warn riders and drivers Fifteen years
later a British inventor, Murdoch,
made second of these steam road
wagons. This, too, was failure. Both
Cugnots and Murdock's devices were
more the ancestors of the automobile
than of the locomotive.
1t was not until 1900 that the real
father of the locomotive" made his
first test along this line He was Ire
yithick, and he had already made a
reputation by adding important i'm
provements to Watts steam engine.

GRAHAM BELL
The Man Who Made Voice 7raUel
1000 Miles

A big. bearded, farmer-like youth Of
"a found himself one day in 1871 the
hero of Brant county, Canada. He was
had moved from Edinburgh to the
Dominion the previous year. He had
invented a contrivance by which hui
man speech could be carried across a
single wire and transmitted with per-
feet distinctness for considerable
distance. This telephone" as young
Bell called his invention, was regarded
as wonderful and highly amusing
toy. Nothing more. The country folk
turned out by hundreds to witness the
first experiment. A wire had been
stretched from the house of Bells ia
Their in the suburbs to the telegraph
office in the city of Brantford two and
half miles away. The test was sue
cessful. Bell was praised, though
some of the graver Canadian Scots
thought he might far better have
spent the time on something really
useful.
He went next year to Boston to ac-
cept professorship in the University
there. From boyhood he had devoted
himself to a system, devised by his
father, for teaching deaf mutes to
communicate with each other and
with the outer world This was his
intended life work, although as boy
he had longed to be a musical com
poser, and had with difficulty been
persuaded by his father to give up
the ambition. Bell when mere lad
conceived the idea of forming sys-
tenn of harmonic telegraphy. He found
that sounds could be carried over
wires that were Joined to galvanic
battery, and that by adjusting a set Of
reeds at one end of the line Of vibra-
ton with another at the opposite end
noises on one set could be reproduced
by the other. Thus. each could be
both transmitter and receiver OF
music notes From this 1t was but a
step to applying the same idea to

the result,
Soon after Prof. Bell moved to Bos-
ton a wealthy Cambridge man, Hub.
bard by name, sent his deaf daughter
to him for vocal instruction. An en-
gagement between pupil and teacher
soon followed. Miss Hubbard and her
father became deeply Interested In the
Shiner gazette. [volume] (Shiner, Tex.) 1893-current, 1909-09-02

But after proving the practicability
OF his discovery Trevithick was com
PEELED to give up the idea Of making It
popular. The public at large sneered
at 1t, called II freak. and predicted
that It would come to nothing. Never
theless, during the next quarter CEN
fury other men added at times, Ette
by little, to the devices effectiveness;
and, in 1922, an English miner. George
Stephenson succeeded in making the
first locomotive along modern lines.
In 1925 the arst railroad, with one OF
his locomotives drawing train over
its tracks, was opened. This was an
epoch-malKing event in the History OF
Progress. The public was forced, re-
luctantly, to admit that the invention
had come to stay. To England belongs
the credit Of this wonderful invention.
Peter Cooper was a self-made New
Yorker. born in New York city In 1871.
He had little more education than did
Trevithlck. AS boy he worked Tor
his father at making hats. When II
he learned the coachmaking trade.
This later requirement was destined
later to be OF use to him along
broader line Of endeavor. He, like
Trevithick. was natural inventor. A
cloth-shearing machine, a patent glue
and many other unique inventions
started him on the road to fortune. lie
had already won fame as man OF
original ideas when the question OF
the locomotives importation came up.

telephone. and Bell was Induced early
In 1876 to patent 1t.
Mr.. Hubbard was placed In charge
of the Massachusetts exhibit at the
Centennial exposition in Philadelphia.
He wanted Bell to place before the
people in the Massachusetts building
his marvellous scientific toy.
But Bell did not care to do this,
probably falling to realize the import
ance of such step. Miss Hubbard
added her plea to her fathers. When
all other means failed she asked the
inventor to come to the station to see
her off for Philadelphia. AS she was
about to board the train she burst into
tears and again begged her sweet.
heart to come to the Quaker city with
her. He yielded; and the telephone
apparatus as well as his luggage was
shipped to him by the next train.
But only half the battle was won.
Before the telephone could be exhib-
tied a committee must pass on it's
merits. 1t was late In the afternoon
when the tired committeeman reached
the Bell invention. They were on the
point of deciding such toy did not
deserve place in so dignified an ex-
position when Dom Pedro. emperor OF
Brazil, CHANGED to wander Into the
committee room. The emperor rushed
over to Bell, shook hands effusiveIy
with him and asked number of cues.
tons concerning the telephone, which
he had seen tested during "a recent
visit to Boston. He went on to insist
that Bell let him talk through It at
once.
The imperial approval had turned
the tide of fortune for Alexander Bell.

men claimed credit for similar inyen-

In the courts. AT length Bell won.

Miss Hubbard, as wedding present
