STARTS AUTOMOBILE
BY WIRELESS SPARK

FOR the first time in the history of
the automobile it has been demonstrated
that car can be started from a dis
lance by means Of the wireless tele-
graph.
This was proved at the Indiana state
fair, where the motor of model 81
Overland was started every five minutes
by wireless spark from the Overland
headquarters in Indianapolis, five miles
away.
A complete wireless outfit, CONSISTING
OF motor generator, transformers, RELAYS
and other paraphernalia, was installed
IN the show windows of the city sales
rooms. This was connected with an
aerial on the roof of the building and
by stepping the alternating current IN
from 10 volts to 10000 volts the appar-
atus made it possible 70 send messages
300 miles.
The Overland car on exhibition at the
fair grounds was fitted up with re-
ceivlng apparatus and the necessary
automatic switches and relays for
throwing on and off the electric current
of the starter and magnetic. An auto.
matte switch was regulated so as to al
low the car to run for forty five seconds
after which the magnetic was cut off.
The operation of the car was repeated
at fiveminute intervals
One of the most interesting features
of the experiment was the fact that the
entire operation of starting the car was
accomplished without the aid of a hu-
man hand. A time switch, installed in
the city, controlled the entire operation
From the time Governor Ralston, of In
diana, put the car in operation the first
time by touching a key at the sending
station until the last day of the fair,
the starting and stopping of the car was
taken care of automatically.
That the unique Overland exhibit at
the fair attracted more than the usual
attention was evidenced by the crowds
of visitors who watched for the crack
ling spark which was the signal for the
car s motor to start going.-Adv.

X REMEDY FOR
 BRONCHIAL COLDS
Philadelphia Man Tells How lie Treated a Severe Case With VinoI and the Success full Result,

Philadelphia, Pa" Last Fall I was troubled with a very severe bronchial cold with very bad effects from it, head aches, backaches, andsick tomystomach. I was so bad 1 became alarmed and tried several medicines, also a doctor, but did not get any relief. One of the men where I am employed asked me to try Vinol, saying it cured his worstcolds. l did so, and in very short time received the relief which l craved. Now 1 am enjoying perfect health, and recommend Vinol to be all that is claimed for it. '' JACK c. SINGLETON, Philadelphia, Pa.
 When we tell you that Vinol is the best remedy in all our large stock for chronic colds, coughsand bronchitisthere is no excuse for letting a cough or cold hang on for months and even years.
 It Is the curative medicinal elements of the cod's hvers, combined with blood making and strengthening properties of tonic iron contained in Vinol which makes it so successful in removing chronic coughs, colds and bronchitis, after other medicines fail.
 Try a bottle of Vinol with the under standing your money will be returned if it fails to help you.

man Receives Commission.
 4 man giving his name as Harry Rock S5, of Providence, was found unconscious in the store doorway at Magan's grocery on School street be- tween eight and nine o'clock We'd nesday evening. When he regained consciousness he claimed he was drugged and robbed of $46 and his overcoat by an acquaintance named Frank Smith. There is considerable evidence to bear out the story.
 Rock was seen lying in the doorway by some boys on their way to the basketball game at the High school building. They were unable to arouse him and notified Sergeant Hayes of the police force and pr. B. F. Perry who went together to where the man lay. pr. Perry treated the man and brought him back to con- moval to the Day Kinmball hospital where he remained over night. Ac- cording to pr. Perry the man had been drugged, probably with a tablet composed of morphine and antropine-
 When he was able to talk Rock told the officer and doctor that he lived in Providence and until recently had been employed in the Capital lunch room in that city. During the last week of his employment 8 man who called himself Frank smith worked at the same place. They both got through together and started out to look for another job. He. Rock had S46 in his pocket when they arrived in Putnam on the six o'clock train. He said he went through the subway at the railroad station and intoo a lunch room, Smith accompanying him. They ordered food and coffee and Smith went behind the counter and drew the coffee. After they finished they boarded a trolley car and within five minutes he felt dizzy and got off at a place where there was a large building all lighted up. Then he started to walk down the street and that is the last he remembered.
 From the story told by the man the pair doubtless went into the sub way lunch room and got off the car near the High school building which was lighted up for a basket ball game. The place where Rock was found is not far from the school building The police have been working on the case but with little hopes of success as shortly after the time the affair is said to have occurred their was train out of the city and doubtless Smith is miles away. The men are not known here.
