ties In Suit Begun In

Court.
HAPPENED 80 YEARS AGO
Case Unusual Because Of the Ex.
trey Length of Time Which Has
Elapsed Since
Occurrence.
HAPPENED 80 YEARS AGO

The case of Charles Hubenthal
against John Gibbons arising over a
promisorry note made over thirty-two
years ago came up for trial in the
district court before a jury this after
noon at two o'clock.
Because of the fact that Judge
Bank may be called as witness In
the case Judge w. S. Hamilton is pre-,
siding at the trial. Judge Bank stuo.
led law in the office of Sprague and
Gibbons during the years around
which the transaction Is said to have
occurred and is an intimate friend OF
both parties to the suit.
The petition OF the plaintiff recites
that the plaintiff paid note for the
defendant as surety on or about Jan
II, 1880, and that by reason Of pay
ment for plaintiff is entitled to re
cover $500.
The defendant answering the petit
ton Of the plaintiff, claims that h,
has no knowledge OF the plaintiff
being surety on the note, that he wa
not informed Of the claim or deman,
made for money until short tim,
before the suit was commenced.
The attorneys began the work o
selecting a jury in the case and 1t Il
not thought that 1t will require {
great deal of time to try it. The
case is very unusual because of the
extreme length of time which has
elapsed since the transaction occurred

Affection Of stammerInc.

Stammering is hesitancy OF
speech. the result of an affection OF
the vocal and cumulative organs.
There are many opinions as to the
cause of this affection. The person at.
fected may be relieved by following
certain rules, the principal one being
cultivation of the habit of speaking
correctly and not fast. The suffere,
must study the process of speech, the
relation of breath to articulate sounds,
the position of the tongue and other
organs in molding the outward stream
of air.

range the decorative features for his own
cars. 1t was suggested that each dealer
line up all the cars of his make possible
and head his own division. remnants could
be displayed or other features which
would attract attention and add to the &C.
casion. With each dealer acting as a
marshal for his own particular make car
this would be not only a splendid adver-
tisement for his line, but would probably
be able to bring out a large number who
would not otherwise take part in the
parade A band of music will head the
parade and the parade itself is expected
to be the largest Of it's kind ever held in
Washington.
Many of the dealers are contemplating
decorating their showrooms and having
musical programs rendered during the
evenings, while the serving of refresh
ments will be another of the many unique
features. Cars will be at the disposal
of those who desire to journey from one
salesroom to another, and in this way
those who take part in the carnival week
exhibition will be enabled to take care of
prospects and see that they are conducted
to any salesroOm in order to inspect the
latest product of the manufacturers for
the year 1913.

Disnantling a Car.

When a car is being taken down care
should be taken to so mark the parts that
their relation to each other will be pre-
served in the reassembling. Before sep
arating the gears of the timing mechan-
ism they should be marked either with
prick punch or paint that. when again
assembled. the meshing of the teeth will
be the same as before and the action of
the valves and spark will be harmonious.
Bushinss also should be marked so that
the two halves of the same set will be
easily found, and the relation of the up
per and lower half maintained. Should
one-half OF bushing be turned, i. e.,
the left end be the right or vice versa, it
is probable that the shaft either will be
loose or too tight all of which can be
avoided by marking the parts before they
are separated.

quarters in Philadelphia at the Good

North Broad street. AS an example of
the wonderful success of the Goodyear
business in this city under the efficient
management of Mr. Barnes it is stated
that during the past fiscal year it has
increased $50 per cent over the year
1911. and this splendid showing entitled
Philadelphia to the honor of third place
among the cities selling Goodyear tires.
Mr. Barnes has won his way to the top
entirely through his own efforts and
pleasing personality and there is every
reason to feel that in his new and
greatly widened territory he will con-
tinue his successful career.

Guard Steering Bearings.

Failure of the steering connections
through the giving way of one or an
other of the ball and socket connections,
though comparatively rare, is sufficiently
serious in its nature-even as a remote
possibility-to be carefully guarded. In
a very few instances the makers make
some provision of this nature in the de-
sign of the connections In the majority
of cases, however, either a great amount
Of wear in the joint or the breaking of
one of the arms close to it, is liable to
wreck the machine. AS a measure Of
precaution. it Is possible to attach a cou-
pie of clips to the rod and arm, just
back of each joint, connecting them with
a helical spring of sufficient strength to
hold up the rod in the event of failure
in the joint, or to plain wire con-
nection of similar nature. Another pos
sible method of protection, which in many
respects is even better. is to use a pro-
tecting boot for the joint, which is made
of heavy leather. and is so secured that
in the event of the failure of the joint
the rod will be effectually kept from fall
ing.
