the inventor that he would get favorable

leave his work az the laboratory Later.

experiments and took a ride in the car

spectacle of a car going along without
trolley pole. Edison smiled and. turning
to the man who sat at his side, said:

eyes were just as big when you saw your
first car going along the street without
horses. Those youngsters will live to see

OPEN REVOLT
AT WEST POINT
Entire Cadet Corps Of $50 viii be
Sweated One by
One.

WEST POINT, N. Y. Sept. 27.-An
open revolt is on today in the mill
tary academy. The delicacy of the
situation is such that Major General
Thomas Barry, superintendent of the
academy, returned from Washington
today to take personal charge.
Unless some weak kneed cadet
agrees to tell the board what caused
the insult to Logan, the board must
drop the matter or expel the entire
cadet corps.
The board of inquiry appointed by
Lieut.. Col. Sibley, has been in almost
continuous session since the silence
began and has already examined 20
first class men.
Sibley intimated today that the en-
tire cadet corps of $50 will be called
one by one before the board
