befoer it was determined sometime
to mark the spot where so many Ger

fitting monument to tell to future
ages the story of their heroism. The
city of Leipsic donated tract OF land
worth $25O,0OO for the monument. In
1888 the foundation was laid and to-
day a porphyry monument costing
$500, 900 tells the story of deathless
heroism, of noble patriotism and un-

and liberty on the other.

BUILT FIRST HOUSE In THIS CITY
Postmaster at Rupert Resigns in Ad-
vance of the Expiration OF His
Term.-2O Years Service.

w. N. Shilling, postmaster at HI
pert Idaho, generously indicates his
aversion to embarrassing the national
administration. Mr.. Shilling is one
of the warehouses; of the Republican
party and he has been postmaster ut
different places for nearly 20 years.
He now voluntarily relinquishes the
office in advance of the expiration OF
his term and thereby shreds a theory
often advanced by the Democrats re-
lating to the leech-like tendencies OF
G. O. P. federal appointees. Mr.. Shll-
lings letter of resignation follows:
RUPERT, Ida, Oct. 6 1913
Sir.-Realizing from a political
standpoint that there are others
more justly entitled to this office
than myself and having served as
postmaster in Idaho for nearly
20 years, and having some time
since passed the three score and
ten period of life allotted to man,
| herewith most respectfully ten
der to you my resignation as
postmaster at Rupert. Idaho, and
would be pleased if you would
kindly name my successor at as
early a date as possible. l have
the honor to be,
Very Respectfully,
w. N. SHILLING, P. M.
To the President, Washington,
D. G.
Mr.. Shilling was Union soldier,
After the war he enlisted in the army
that subjugated the enemies of civili-
cation in the west. He has been an
important factor in the upbuilding of
Idaho. Mr.. Shilling erected the first
house at Blackfoot and had the first
store at Pocatello.
Editors Note: This house is the
one now occupied by E. A. Doud near
Snake river bridge. The log part
was erected first, and was used as
store and stage station. AS BUSH
ness improved, the frame part was
added. 1t was at the crossing of the
roads leading to Montana and the
Salmon river mines.

AMUSING EXPERIENCES

Detroit Mich, Oct. eyes said
James, a guide at the Ford plant, we
have some amusing experiences. Peo-
pie have no idea of the extent of the
plant before they take a trip through
it and many of them have but little
idea of what they have seen after they
have gone through.
and the comparisons they make
are a big laugh They are always try
ing to size up som ething by the size
of something they are familiar with
"a big farmer was going through
one day and when he passed the gear
cutting machines with the streams of
soft soap playingo on the metal to
cool it, he said: Gee, them look like
a bunch of cream separators.'
Then they get funny ideas of what
they are going to see. was taking
a party of women through one day
and one asked me where the s1augh-
ter house was. That was a new one
and suffered, I guess, in asking her
what she meant.
&c Why says she, 7 read a piece
in the paper about the thousands of
COWS that killed every year to fur
nish leather for the upholstery and
L wanted to see the slaughter houses
zone of the funniest was a, bunch
OF Englishmen that was here. was
telling all about the enormous guam
titles of material used. told him
that the screws used in all the 1885,
600 cars made this year if put end to
end would stretch from here to Cleve-
land and stick out away over Ohio.
{" But you cawnt do 1t, y'know,'
said one of the Britishers.
g Can't do what?', says I.
" Stretch those blooming screws
from Detroit to Cleveland he answer
ed, because you couldn't attach them
together and they would interfere
with navigation
Can you beat that? Well, those
are only samples of what we get ev-
cry day.
"And some of the people who go
through here can't seem to under
stand things at all. Not long ago
when it was announced that we were
making a car a minute I was towing
a crowd of business men through.
They were evidently here for some
convention. When we got to the as
sembling floor one of them, a hard
headed old chap who acted all the
time as though he was from the heart
of Missouri, pulled out his watch and
began to carefully follow the Iabors
of an assembly crew When the car
that was being set up was run out on
the loading platform, he snapped his
watch shut, waved his hand and said
disdainfu1ly:
7 knew it was a fake?'
What is a fake asked one of
his companions.

WESTCHESTER ROADS
IN FINE CONDITION

The Touring Department of The
Automobile Club of America lately
sent one of its road cars to thorough
ly investigate the highways and by
ways of Westchester County. Many
automobile runs are available in this
section and new cross connections
from the many trunk routes now fur
nish a maze of excellent State roads.
1t is almost a pleasure to get lost in
Westchester. After proceeding from
New York to Dobbs Ferry, White
Plains OF Greenwich, then follow ones
nose, to speak, winding around
through the beautiful and prosperous
Westchester section. Among these
roads are new stretches of state road
which make available delightful short
to Long Island Sound. Road building
in Westchester County has advanc-
ed rapidly during the past season.
Going up Broadway from New York
good city streets will be encountered
to Yonkers, and the stretch which
was under construction going into
Yonkers is now opened and in good
condition. From Gettys Square to
Hastings, Warburton Avenue which
affords excellent views of the Hud-
son river, is now closed and it is ad-
visable to bear right from Gettys
Square and run up hill into Broad
way, thence passing Hastings nesting
near the river edge to Dobbs Ferry.
Continuing on what is ordinarily call
ed the Albany Post road, locally
known as Broadway, the road passes

sE1F-LUBRIoATING BOLTS

There is no doubt but what the aim
of automobile manufacturers at the
present time is to make the motor car
as convenient and comfortable as pos
s1ble, these features being consider
ed second only to mechanical excel
1ence. Engineers have suggested self
lubricattng spring bolts a feature
to be incorporated in new cars. The
driver of the motor car at the pres
emit time expects to keep Immediately
clean. This is different from the
attitude of a few years ago, when a
man who drove an automobile did not
mind dirt and rease;-rather he took
it as part of his pleasure and consfd-
cred 1T something of a badge denot-
ing him a motorist. A great step to-
ward promoting cleanliness was. taken
when self-starters were installed, but
there are many others which are not
fully appreciated by a man until he
has had experience with various in
copveniences which he has noted. To
the ordinary man spring bolts would
seem rather an unimportant consid-
GRAFTON and one that would not re-
qu1re much consideration. He does
not consider that many of the squeaks
which motor cars develop are caused
by spring bolts not properly lubrfcat-
ed.
The general practice is to place
grease cups on the end of the bolts
These have to be screwed up fire.
Quently. To reach them the driver is
practically forced to rub against the
whe els. AS a results he lets them go
without fabrication and the squeaks
develop. But with the new type
spring bolt, this onxenience of Iu-
bricating spring bolts daily is done
away with. The new bolt is three
quarters of an inch in diameter and
hollow. Through the tube thus form
ed extends a wick which carries the
oil to the bolt bushing by means of a
hole cut through the side of the bolt
Because Of its capacity it is therefore
only necessary to fill this chamber
with lubricating oil once in about S.
900 miles. The fact that the bolt has
such a large circumference, gives it
a far greater than ordinary bearing
surface.
