PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 2S.-Dr.
Kite, inventor of many valuable
electrical appliances, gave an abso-
lutely perfect demonstration of his
latest invention, the chrono-kineto-
graph, speaking-moving picture de-
vice, before large assemblage of
highly interested, specially invited
men of power in the world of finance
and genius at st. Anthony hall, in
this city. The men were assembled
through the medium of the Cort-
Kite company, of which John Cort,
the theatrical manager, of Seattle, is
president, and Dan L. Weaver, of
Spokane, a director.
DR.. Kite has given to the world
one of the most important inven-
items of the decade. Not only will
the chrono-kintograph revolutionize
everything appertaining to moving
pictures, but it will serve as very
engrossing subject for students of
mechanical appliances. For a num-
Der of years the adept of the
worlds inventors have endeavored
to perfect just such machine, and
large sums of money have been ex-
pended without success through fall
ure to synchronize sound and move
ment. This DR.. Kite has absolute
ly accomplished, and the simplicity
of his device is only another in
stance of his great genius. His sound
waves carry with remarkable pow
er, while his pictures are decided
ly clear.
DR.. Kite is the inventor of the
central battery system now used in
all telephone exchanges, and his was
the first patent issued from the
United States patent Office for wire
less telegraphy.
