The bridegroom and his bride were
starting OH their honeymoon. Just as
they had taken their seats in the train
one of the bridegroom's chums came
hastily along to bid him goodby.
As the young husband extended his
hand the friend snapped a handcuff
on his wrist. The groom had been
expecting a trick of some kind, and
before the practical joker could play
similar trick on the bride he found
the other handcuff snapped around
his own wrist. He was chained to
the happy bridegroom himself!
"That's good one against me, Har-
ry," he said, with sickly smile, "but
I shall have to usk you to come to the
door with ME and get the key for
these things. A man on the platform
has it,"
Just then the whistle sounded, and
the train started off, and 1t made no
stop for the next fifty miles. Before
that, however, the porter, with the aid
Of file, succeeded in separating the
prisoners"
The joker meanwhile had to pay
full fare both ways.

1t is a Beauty

George Merit has just in
stalled in his new store building
on west Bayfield, street one of
the most beautiful soda foun-
tains that has ever been shipped
to northern Wisconsin. The
fountain consists of two parts,
the back bar and mirror and the
front oar and serving cabinet.
The serving cabinet is located
just back of the front bar and
contains the two ice cream
chests, sanitary jars for fruit
favors. sanitary sink for wash
ing glasses. ETC., racks for
glasses and cooler. Above the
ice cream chests and Immediate
ly in front OF the front bar is
the tanks containing the fruit
syrups. In the center of the
front bar stands the fountain.
The back bar is beautiful oak
with marble base and decor
ated with beautiful lights. The
serving cabinet is made of silver
plated ware and porcelain ware
with glass jars for all fruit
syrups. The front bar is made
of marble and the fountain is of
silver plated ware with a beauti-
full oriental top which will be
lighted by electricity.
Mr.. Mertz expects to move
back to his store building this
week and the place will be open
for business by Sunday. 1t is a
neat store.

Incandescent Lamp improvements
READ BY HENRY SCHROEDER


Improvements soon permitted the
raising of the efficiency to 4.6 watts
per candle and, in 1887, the efficien-
cy was still further increased to 3. l
watts per candle-their present day
efficiency. These filaments were
still made of bamboo and were coat
ed with preparation of asphalt.
Soon after this the cellulose form
of filament was used. This is made
by disolving absorbent cotton in
chemical solution producing thick
syrup. This syrup is squirted
through dye into hardening solu-
ton, which gives a continuous thread
OF much more uniform eros 8.
section than the older tiaments had.
This thread is then thoroughly
washed, wound upon drums and
dried. IL is then wound upon forms
to give the filaments their shape and
packed in charcoal in an air-tight
crucible and placed in furnace.
The tilaments thus become carbon
lied and this is the completed fila
ment as used in the earlier lamps.
The performance of such filamept
is. however, limited to the tempera-
ture which this practically charcoal
ilament will stand. Owing TO is
porous nature, 1T evaporates very
rapidly and the treating" process
was developed, by means of which
dense form of graphite carbon is
deposited on the base carbon fla
ment by passing an electric current
through the filament in the presence
of a hydrocarbon vapor. The heat
generated decomposes the vapor,
depositidg dense form of carbon
on the flament so that the filament
now becomes somewhat similar In
appearance TO a rubber covered wire
the base carbon representing the
wire and the coating the rubber in.
sulation. This coating can with.
stand much higher temperature
and from this will be seen that the
character of the 6lament depends
largely upon the efficiency or tenn
perature at which it can be burned.
About eight years ago the metal.
lized carbon, or GEM filament was
invented. This can be operated at
an efficiency of 2.5 watts per candle.
with practically the same life as
1871 watts per candle carbon lamp.
The GEM flament is made by TAX
ing a regular untreated carbon fila
ment aud subjecting it to the in
tense heat of an electric furnace,
which converts the base filament in
to more dense form. The filament
is then treated as is the carbon fila
meat and is again placed in the
ielectric furnace to muie the coating.
still more dense. This operation
also changes the characteristic of
the filament in that its cold resist
lance is less than its hot resistance.
which being similar to that-of the
metals, has given it it's name OF
"Metallized Carbon" filament.

The result of the confession of the
Los Angeles Times is to bring home to
organized labor of the world the need
for cleaning house on a wholesale
plan. The bulk of organized laborers
are thrifty, law-abiding citizens, who
frown on the anarchist and the agita-
tor, yet in every local branch clear on
up to the higher council there are
few men, loud of mouth and having
small following who advocate the acts
of violence which have at times
brought disrepute upon the whole or
are in a very small but active minority
and as rule work independently of
the organization to which they belong,
while claiming to serve it by deeds of
violence. The results in Los Angeles
must convince every intelligent friend
OF organized labor that the time has
come when every man who advocates
violence or does violence is an active
foe to the union as well as to the
world at large, and should be kicked
out and repudiated publicly if the
cause is to have the support of fair
minded people. Nor can the unions be
content with the reputation of the
two brothers in the recent dynamite
outrages 1t must of its own initiative
go clear through to the last man, even
though it decimates the ranks of the
men higher up, to whom the working
man looks for wisdom and sound coun-
sci. When this is done the unions can
go before the public, ask for sympathy
and aid and be confident of receiving
1t. The recent strike of the shopmen,
whether successful or not stands as a
monument to the rapidly changing poll
icy of organized labor in that no acts
of violence were permitted and the

Whether the shopmen win or lose in

for organized labor that will advance
