EDISON SAYS GREAT
PROBLEMS YET TO Be SOLVED
[sentInel specinl service.1

lSentinel Special Service.
Philadelphia, Pa, June S.-Thom-
as a. Edison has arrived in the city
to attend the convention of the Ma
tional Electric Light Association. AS
the inventor and his wife were on
their way to this city from New
York they passed through a shady
glen.
DO you know" said Mr.. Edison,
as | watched that bee / thought |
realized that an aeroplane, a heavier
than air machine of great weight. can
be built as soon as we obtain some
thing that beats the air at the rate
of 200 times a second.
That humble bee was one inch
long, three-eighths of an inch in
diameter. with wing one-quarter
inch wide and fiye-eights of an inch
long. The wings weighed Milo
gram.
IF we can only get to that-the
greatest thing for smallest wing
that is the thing. The bees wings
beat the air 800 times a second. Give
us something that beats the air 200
times a second and we shall win
against all comers."
Edison declared that ) per cent of
the problems of electricity are still
unsolved and that the one thing he
would like to accomplish would be
the making of electricity from coal
without first generating steam. The
talking machine, he said is now
practically perfect, but he would like
TO see the price reduced until anyone
could hear grand opera at a cost of
only . cents.

BILLY ADAMS, SENATOR
FOR Is YEARS, TO QUIT
Isentlnel Special Service. ]

Denver, June Sit is understood
here that William II. Adams. who
has represented the state senate from
the twentyfourth senatorial district
for the past twenty odd years. will
not be candidate for reelection
when his present term ends. This
fact has started the bee to buzzing
in the "bonnets" of several citizens
OF Conejos county who have an idea
they would make a suitable successor
TO Senator Adams. One of the
prospectiyes is said to be Walter d.
carroll, young man with plenty
OF political experience in his home
county, having served Conejos coun-
~ as county clerk. He was a can
didate for reelection at the last cleo
tion, and was defeated by only four
votes by John Macon.
The claims of Macon were CON
tested by Carroll but the decision of
the supreme court gave the election
to Macon.
There are a few others in Coneios
county who are feeling" the situa-
tion, but from what can be learned
nero Carroll seems to have the inside
on the race thus far
10 is said here that Senator Adams
has declared that he will quit poli-
tics forever and in the future de-
vote his time to stock raising on an
extensive scale.
