STORAGE BATTERIES AND MO-

After the expenditure of small
fortune the Tonopah Mining COM
pany is now fitted with a new elec-
trical power house that is second to
none in the state. Formerly the
building occupied was of small di-
mensions, and was far inadequate
to the needs of the company. The
new structure is of the I4-shaped
variety, being 5Ox30 and 79x27 feet
in dimension. The object in en-
larging the building was that a suit
able place for a storage battery
could be had. Formerly the com,
pany had to put up with many diff
entities, especially when the power
would lie turned off. Frequently

cut off, the storage battery will pro-
vide all the power necessary to con-
tinue the operations. The amount
of electric juice held in reserve will
provide 400 horsepower for one
hour, or any fraction thereof for an
equal length Of time

INTERESTING OLD DOCUMENT.
In 1928 Railroads Were Referred to
 as "a Device of Satan'

Alexander Wells, an old citizen of Wellsville, O., has a copy of an inter esting and novel document issued by the school board of the town of Lam caster, O.. in 1928. The question of steam railroads was in it's incipient stage and club of young men had been formed for the purpose of dis cussing the points at issue. They de- sired the use of the schoolhouse for purposes of debate. This was looked upon by the members of the school board as an innovation bordering up- on sacrilege. as indicated, which is the document in the possession of MT. Wells. It reads as follows:
 You are welcome to the use of the schoo1house to debate all proper ques- lions in, but such things as railroads and telegraphs are mpossibilities and rank infidelity. There is nothing in the Word of God about them If God had designed that his intelligent creatures should travel at the frightful speed of 15 miles an hour. by steam. he would clearly have foretold it though his holy prophets. It is a device of Satan to lead immortal souls down to hell.''
 Such sentiments possibly reflected the feeling to some extent in the days of 65 years ago, but they sound strange at the present time, when the device of Satan" is daily carving people over the land at the rate of 50 or 70 miles an hour. The world has progressed somewhat since 1S2S.-Illi- neis Central Employees Magazine.

The article continues: This was carefully preserved by Sir James Ross, but subsequent experience proved that it was altogether faIlacious, as Sir James Ross ships actually sailed over places which were described as mountains in the chart of Capt. Wilkesi The inference left on the mind of Sir James Ross was naturally enough, that the Yankee commander had drawn up- on his imagination for his facts Be this as it may he was obliged to state in his official report to the government as reliable an Arctic traveller as some the Yankee report was in some re- spects a romance.

statement at this time because Lieut.. Shackleton in his narrative of his re- cent expedition to the Antarctic also states that he sailed over places mark ed by Wilkes as land.
 The Wilkes expedition was sent out officially by the United States govern ment and the circumstances hardly would justify a conclusion that he faked deliberately. What probably happened was that he made an error in calculating his position, locating the Antarctic continent some distance farther north than it really is. There is now no question that the continent exists comparatively few miles farth- CT south The Ross-Wilkes controver- sy was very bitter for some years, and Wilkes land did not appear on British charts.-Buffalo Express.
