ELECTRICAL WEEK
AND THOS. EDISON.

The coming week Will be known
throughout the United States as
Electrical Week" and things
electric will be impressed upon
the public mind by the press and
through shop indows. OF course,
it will be electrical week in Hick-
man, too, and the local light and
power company will exhibit many
of the labor-saving electrical de
vices; including the very latest
creations of all the wizards of
this, AN electrical age. In view
of the fact that this country can
boast of, the greatest genius IN
the world in matters electric, the
Courier believes a sketch of this
man s Life and accomplishments is
very timely. His name is Thos.
"A. Edison, who was born at Mi
Ian, o., in 1S47, but when he was
z years of age his family moved
to Port Huron, Mich, whore
he passed his boyhood. Edison
spent but three months in the pub
lie schools, but received thor
ough schooling at his mother s
knee. Before he reached the age
of twelve he had read Gibbon S
ROME" Hume's History of
England" Sears History of
the World" and the "Dietion-
airy of the Sciences.
The most important of Edison .
inventions is the electric mean
descent lamp, which was public
ly exhibited in 1850. The new
lamp proved an immediate sue
cess.
Like Faraday, Edison was a
newsboy; but, unlike Faraday,
Edison never knew the pangs of
hunger in his early youth. They
came later, and they came IN
the great big city of New York.
When about ten years old Edi-
son constructed his first labora-
tory in the cellar of his home in
Port Huron, Mich, and began ex-
periments with a crude chemical
outfit. Toe obtain funds with
which To continue his experiments
ON larger scale young Edison
obtained permission to peddle
newspapers ON the Grand Trunk
railroad.
Edison was successful from the
very start of his work. He of
ten took in IS or so a day, 81 of
which was always turned over
to his mother.
The lure of the laboratory kept
Edison s mind ON experiments.
As he had plenty of leisure time
during the two daily runs, Edi-
son arranged for quite an elabo-
rate workshop in his quarters,
which he equipped with am ex-
traordinary array of apparatus.
This laboratory ON wheels was
the cause of a disaster which
proably had more to do with the
shaping of Edison's career than
any other one thing. One day a
violent lurch of the train knock

shelf, which bursted into flames
