Great Inventions Are Rare.

Invention TO some extent resembles
mining Thousands Of miners plod
weariIy through the mountains and
valleys searching for precious metals
or outcroppings Of ore. One among
thousands strikes the big bonanza.
About 800 patents are issued every
week by the United States patent Of
fee. Only one IN many years is for
something startlingly new and mean-
ing millions Of dollars to the inventor
or the people who may gain control of
ii. Only about one inventor In every
hundred secures II monetary return
which will equal the cost of the inven-
ton and patent. or the 10000 or 3d.
600 patents issued every year there are
few which nre Of such Importance as
to attract widespread attention, and
only at long intervals is there an in.
vention which revolutlonizes condi'

Grateful Scots and the saapipes.


What Scot ever called the pipes a
musical instrument? asks, Harpers
Weekly. In the old wicked days bands
OF predatory English marched over the
border. They were as bold and sturdy
as the Scots and far greater In num-
ber. Cluny Whauppert the laird
OF Glengarramoyle, in desperate need
of sure defense invented the pipes IN
secret and never let skirl out Of
them till he faced the invading Sas-
senach on the bloody field. Then
Cluny blew melody so fierce, so
cldritch, so grinding and blistering to
the soul, that every clansman ripped
and slashed bis way through the Eng
llsh hordes intent on only one thing
to escape the fendish screeching of
the pipes, And that Is why every
grateful Scot to this day cherishes the
bagplpe. the preserver Of Scottish In,
dependence. He has beaten his sword
into plowshare, but he will always
uphold the pipes to bent the band.

returned from joint conference
with General Manager G. K. Jeffries
Of the Traction company at Indian

Of the company employees here was

work Wednesday and the regular
schedule Of cars in and out of the city
was maintained for the first time
since Friday night.
The men all appear glad to be back
after the four days idleness and while
they realize that the difficulty resulted
in a virtual victory for the company
and for other traction companies,
whose men went out at the order Fri
day night, the men here contend that
had other members of the amalgama-
ton held out with the same degree Of
firmness that was displayed by the
local employees, the strike would have
had a different ending.

WHITE SOX LINEUP
RECEIVED IN CITY
Bodie, Chase, Lathrop and
Other Well Known Stars to
be Seen in ACtion-FiSher
Will be on Mound.

Mishawaka's baseball aggregation
now has a definite idea what it will
run UP against Friday afternoon as
the lineup OF the White Sox for the
big Sox-Mishawaka game has arrived.
A special TO the News-Times an
nounces that the following men will
hold down the various positions:
Easterly. C; Kuhn, C; Lathrop, p;
Chase. 1b; Berger, 2b; Bodie, II;
Chapel. CT: Rousch, IF; Breton. 30;
Fournier, IS. Gleason will manage
the team.
Against this aggregation of all
stars. Manager Squibbs of the local
team will pit the following men:
Landick. c; Fisher. p; Phihon. 1b;
Stillson, %; Jones, IS; SQuibbs, 3b;
TrOwbridge. II; White. CT; Scheibel-
hut, IF. This is the Regular lineup
for the locals with the exception Of
the catcher's position. Landick will
be substituted for Werntz in this
game.
The White Sox will leave Chicago
Friday morning at 1880 o'clock. ar
irving in this city at 1:01. They will
go TO the Mishawaka hotel, where
they will dress for the game. Follow
ing this they will be conveyed TO the
ball park IN automobiles.
1t Is the intention or the local
management to have all machines
from this city that will be at the
game to go at one time, making a sort
OF automobile parade. All WAC can
do so have been requested to meet at
the Mashawaka at 1880 o'clock where
the line will form.
The Boosters club will meet the
visiting aggregation at the Lake Shore
depot and will lead tn EN- TO the local
hotel. They will have a section at the
ball park reserved for them.
MiShawaka fans are sanguine as to
the outcome OF the game. The team
is in fine shape and will undoubtedly
put up a strong front against the
major league artists.
Fisher, the man who has pitched
for Mishawaka throughout the sea-
son, will be on the mound against the
White Sox. He will face Lathrop. a
former NoIre Dame twirler.. Lathrop
did not have any too much on Fisher
when the former attended school at
the university last summer but his
year in fast company probably has
improved him greatly. Fisher is 60
ing into the game TO win, however.
Indications point to record crowd
at the game. Many from this city
will go, while the game has been ex-
tensively advertised in South Bend,
Elkhart and other surrounding cities
and towns. All OF these are expected
to send their share OF fans.
The game will be calle1 promptly
at o'clock. Packey Nc .-land, the
noted prizefighter, will empire the
contest.

All of the four fire companies Of
the city were called. The fire was
extinguished after an hours fight.
The origin OF the blaze is believed
to have been in the simultaneous
burning out OF number OF fuses Of
the six transformers stationed IN the
building and which controlled the
power leading TO the paper mill. The
tongues of fire coming through the
cracks in the metal covering Of the
structure ignited a large quantity of
wood piled up against the building.
The blaze had gained considerable
Roadway when the firemen arrived.

found it impossible TO pass down the
thoroughfare and tried TO turn
around and in so doing backed his
car over the curb on the south side,
evidently failing to notice a steep
embankment. However. the front
wheels Of the motor car held the ma
chine in place so that no damage
was done to the machine and it was
finally replaced on the pavement by
a force Of city employees under Com

team. A bicycle belonging to George
