Washington. Dec. !. Tsd-nss
from England herald the invention
of an automobile tire with all the
good qualities of a pneumatic tire
but containing no rubber. This re-
markable step in the progress of auto
improvements is concisely described
by Consul General John l.. Griffiths
In a report from London, as follows:
"The springs are made of slightly
tapered strips of special steel coiled
spirally in such way that the great
er part of each turn is within the
preceding one, and that under suffi-
cient compression the whole of the
inner coils can be forced within the
outermost one. To the surfaces OF
he links which roll on the ground
are cemented blocks of hard COM
position of fiber and gutta-percha
oompacted under pressure, and these
&c is stated, can be renewed when
worn away at a cost of 81 cents to
SLIP for each wheel.

been to initiate the action of the

Sunday afternoon, and the attend
ants reaped much gain from the
performances. This mad scene OF
DIR. Cooks, we trust, will prove
equally profitable to him and to
his exploiters. Later the doctor
may be convinced that honest con-
fession, besides being good for the
soul, is profitable likewise, and may
tell us at a cent word that he lied
about climbing Mt. Mckinley.
II the cold made Cook mad, and
his admirers excuse him on that
plea, can't they in common charity
admit that Peary was crazy with
the heat, when after % years OF
struggle crowned with final attain
ment of his goal, he found an i'm
poster had beaten him back to civil
lization and laid claim to his
honors?

was empowered to get warrants for
the property owners, who. II they
fail to abate the nuisance, will be
sued for the cost of the Improvement
made by the city. The pond Is the
mort unsightly and dangerous OF
places in the eyes Of the health de-
partment. The nuisance can be rem
.edied by draining the low ground or
filling il with earth. During the sum

system was built years ago by prop
erty owners at their own expense
after obtaining permission from the
city. In the past few months Dr.
Holland has found that dry wells
have been connected to the system
which causes a sickening odor to
arise from the intakes. City Engineer
Washington told the board of health
Yesterday the only solution to the
problem Is to dig up the entire sewer.
Those who are running Their sanitary
sewerage into the pipes will be proc

to find who has made connections. A
short time ago property owners and

Cotton in Kentucky.

In F. lton county, in the extreme
southwestern section Of Kentucky.
the farmers are growing cotton with
great success. In one day recently
two ginning companies at Hickman
paid out nearly $4,000 for cotton.
This would indicate that many farm
ers in that vicinity are enjoying
prosperity by reason of their efforts
in the cotton-growlng line.
In view of the experience OF Full
ton county growers It would appear
that farmers in other sections Of Ken
lucky could afford to devote some
thoughtful attention to the possibili-
ties of cotton raising.

doubt, a large price for his confess
sion. Having made a fortune off a
bogus pretension, the doctor will
materially add to his resources by a
statement that he was "crazy with
the cold" when he made his orig
inal claim. Maybe he was; but the
cunning of his madness, as exempli-
fed by his hiding on the outskirts
of the world until he located Peary
and timed his return; his opportune
arrival with the news OF his bogus
accomplishment. his whirlwind har-
vest of lecture fees, and successful
rush to cover just before the grand
exposure at Copenhagen, is the
wonder of the age. Now, that he
has returned to sanity under the
soothing influences of comfortable
environments paid for by gullible
