EDISON ON THE FUTURE OF
ELECTRICITY.

II told Mr.. Edison that the Amer

know what specific mechanical in

future" The inventor sat TO. some

said:

to do without this much needed i'm
provement in American tran porta-

Mr.. Edison said he believed that the

its ability to make its own power,
would perform most of the work on
the farm. But" he said, ''the cities

the building was empty. All the men
had gone home. He sat there till the
dizziness had somewhat subsidized, then
made his way down the hall, got his
coat and hat and went out on the side
walk. The cold air Of the street re-
vived him somewhat and he reached a
car that would take him nearly to Miss
Volmar's door. He looked so i'll that
sympathetic passengers made way for
him and gave him a seat, though the
aisle was crowded. When he reached
Miss Volmar'i door he had to keep
himself from falling by hanging onto
the door knob.

except the weather is set today TOT
the opening of the major league base
ball season TOMORROW. AS for the
weather-it's best not to interview
any baseball magnate on that subject.
Some very, very cold snow was dc
ing the honors today at Ebbets field
and the Polo grounds in New YORK.
and at Braves field in Boston. Con-
ditions were little better in Phlla-
delphia. .
President Tener of the National
league today announced his umpire
assignments for the opening series
and then sat right quiet to see If his
luck is good. O'Day and Bransfieii
are scheduled for Brooklyn: Byron
and Quigley at Boston; Klein and
at Cincinnati.
The weather in these parts is a ser
ious menac to opening the season.
Unless it turns warmer, it will be i'm
possible to play baseball. OF course,
there is the chance that spring will
do a comeback. It turned cold in a
day and that is sufficient indication
that the weather can also turn warm
in a day.
