FIRST GASOLINE ENGINE.
Was Made by Frenchman Forty-Fiye
Years Ago.

The first attempt to apply gasoline
as a motive power was made by a
Frenchman. Pierre Josejh Ravel,
who patented As years ago "a steam
generator heated by mineral oils, to
be applied to steam locomotion on
ordinary roads" Ravel's engine was
fitted to a small carriage and de-
veloped three horsepower. The Fran
co-German war put an end to Ra-
vel's experiments for time, bul
years later he built motor car in
which petroleum was used for the
direct generation Of motive power.
In 1875, Lentz invented a burner
by which a mixture of gasoline and
other napthas, called massout, was
used as fuel on steamships. About the
same time gasoline was used as an
illuminant in street lamps, and later
a new use was found for it in the
manufacture of varnish and oilcloth.
Gasoline, amounting to s per cent
of the distilled product of the crude
petroleum, continued to be drug on
the market until the invention of the
gasoline motor and its application
to the automobile; boats, aeroplanes
and hundreds of industrial uses.
Several inventors helped to inaug-
urate the ''age of gasoline" but the
chief of them was George B. Selden,
of Rochester, n. Y, the father of the
automobiles Philadelphia Ledger.

MILLIONS SHUN WEDDING BELLS.
There Are 100000 Adults i'm the
United States Unmarried.

Unmarried men and women, you
are being investigated. Why are you
unmarried? There are more than
100000 of you in the United
States, and 7. E. Rittenhouse, con-
sarvation commissioner of New York,
is conducting an investigation to de-
ternLine the reason for so many mill
lion single people. His conclusions
are expected soon, says The Washing
ton Star.
Why" asks Mr.. Rittenhouse, ARE
thirty-nine out of every hundred
males without wives? Why should
We have 100000 unmarried per-
sons in the United States? These
mateless millions nearly equal in
number the population of the king
dom of Spain, or that of Mexico and
Canada combined. They are divided
as follows; 100000 unmarried men
twenty years old and over; 100000
unmarried women over Is years old;
7,226,00O of these men are between
20 and A years old; some 00,0OO
of them are between the ages Of As
and 54.
Never in the history of the world
has a nation been SO prosperous nor
within such easy reach of the COM
forts and luXuries of life as the Amer
leans of today. There is something
wrong. What is it?
Some Lack Courage.
"NIaking due allowance for the i'm
pecunious, the aged and the men
tally and physically unfit, it is safe
to say that 100000 of these single
men are capable of assuming the re-
sponsibilities of married life. The
majority of these men have a whole
some respect and reverence for the
married state, and many of them will
enter it, but there are an enormous
number of men who lack the moral
fiber and courage to marry and take
a mans part in human affairs.
while an army of single men are
lavishing their earnings and their af-
fections upon themselves and many of
them developing extravagant and Of
ten vicious havits-an existence
which they prefer to an orderly, eco
nomical married life-another great
army of young women are forced to
toll in our factories and business
houses for the necessaries of life.
This is an unfortunate and un-
natural state of affairs. Moreover
from the ranks of the unmarried
comes humanity's heaviest contribu
tion to immortality and crimes.
"All these factors are we'll worth
considering when studying the prob
lem of marriage, eugenics or race de-
generacy, and the fundamental moral
principle which underlies them all.
Discusses Decnne or Fit.
There is a demand, more or less
popular, to place restrictions around
marriage to prevent the immortality,
crime and degeneracy which follow
the reproduction Of the unfit But
what of the decline in the reproduc-
tion of the fit? Why should not our
highly developed civilization devise
some means to encourage our II, ,000,-
900 fit, but unmarried, persons to
marry, and assume their natural and
proper places and part in the great
scheme of humanity?
What civilization needs is not ne
cessarily large families, but more and
better families

WHITAKER WINS
PRAISE OF FANS
South Bend Boy Starred For Indiana
Against Chicago Despite
Lame Knee.

That Frank Whitaker. South Bend
boy, who played quarterback with the
Indiana eleven against Chicago Sat
urday, played a solid and consistent
game, is the opinion of the Chicago
sport writer's. According TO them he
managed his men well and divided
honors with Erehart and Davis as
the individual stars of the contest.
The Record Herald had this to say:
"Erehart, F. Whitaker and Capt. Da-
Wis displayed a brand of individual
football that early marked them as
players of worth. The little quarter
back of the Hoosiers was an able gen.
eral and handled his men with q GER
tainty of action that brought praise
from the vrowd."
His forward passing was high class
and his ability TO get his men away
on the jump brought repeated cheers
from the Indiana rooters.
Whitaker went into the game with
a bad knee and had to be relieved be-
fore the finish Of the contest.

odd game, while the Bucktails won
two games from the Tusks, the Buck
tails have absolute command of the
situation in the Antlers league, and
are no longer tied with the Teeth.
But the battle for the other end Of the
percentage column between the Elks
and Prongs is quite as desperate as
that Of the leaders. The champion
PrOngs still have complete cOmmaT
Of the situation, however.
The first tie game Of the season was
recorded in the Antlers league when
the PrOngs and Bucks were all even
at the close Of their second game and
the PrOngs saved a shut out in the roll
off. The Fawns and Tusks played off
their scheduled game of the first week
and resulted in a win for the latter.
But in defeat the Fawns were happy
as they now have their original roster
OF players intact for the first time
in four years. This club viii now
bear the closest kind Of scrutiny in
future battles.
Elks League Is Better.
Although the leading Toasts won
two games in their contest last week

much better appearance and they no

Bo1Olers Getting Edge as
Result Of Steady Practice

All fear tho the local bowlers were
destined for the discards because Of
the irrelevant form displayed in the
preliminary games was partly shelved
as the result OF last weeks games in
the several leagues throughout the
city. Good scores were posted in
some parts OF all Of the leagues now
operating and in one instance the To-
cal record sOr the highest total for a
single game was smashed
This event took place in the Elks
league, and was accomplished by the
little" beers. in their contest with
the Bills on Wednesday evening The
team piled uD LILO pins in their ef-
fort and II marked the first double
century scores o fthe season for Frank
Bauer and Captain Freehafer The
beers obtained nearly four hundred
more pins than their opponents and
the total Of the beers shaded the Bills
nearly 800 but in spite of this the
beers lost two games Of the series.

baker league this week and only the

able 10 retain their positions. A note
worthy feature was the fact that the
Hubs and Studebakers actually re-
ceived a rating and the game which
the latter won was the first display Of
form this season. Glenn Richards.
state champion, was the star Of the
evening. showing a couple OF double

counting the first game.

There are three positions where two
or more clubs are tied for place, in
volving eight clubs because of third
place being in dispute.
A change in the management of the
league was effected last week, caused
by the resignation OF s. II. Gentle

unfortunate for the organization as
he has been in charge since the incep-
ton of the league and has proved
himself one of the most efficient men
not only for his league but for the
good OF the sport and his actions must
be regretted
