HOSPITAL Dance
ISNEXT monday
Big Hospital Benefit Dance
Monday Evening in the
HasOn & Tyler
Garage.
EPPLE'S ORCHESTRA
Profits to go Toward the Ad-
diti0n to be Built at
Hospital.

A big hospital benefit dance will be
given in the new addition of the Han
son 4 Tyler garage next week Monday
evening" sponsored by the Webster City
Chambes Of Commerce. Epple's senior
orchestra, Of Boone. will play.
All the profits OF this dance are to
go toward the fund for the enlargement
OF Mercy hospital. The Chamber of
Commerce plans to have committees
out selling tickets. The cause is a most
worthy one and it is expected that the
public generally, including those who
dance and those who do not, will buy
tickets generously. The plan is to
raise as much money as possible. The
hospital is crowded most of the time
and many worthy patients have to be
refused admittance at times because Of
the crowded condition. The addition
is badly needed and the hope Of the
committee in charge is to raise as large
sum of money as possible. Hanson
4 Tyler are giving the use of the garage
free.
The Hanson & Tyler. garage addition
covers two lots and has fine cement
floor. The building will be heated and
"a committee of women will decorate
the place in an attractive manner. 1t
is expected to make the gathering one
Of the largest social affairs ever held
in the city. 1t comes upon date dur
ing the holidays when many visitors
are in the city and the holiday spirit is
dominant. 1t ought to he big success
and net gOodly sum for the hospital.

Gates that the old spirit is raising its

vestigating committee who will stand
before humanity as moral Judge to
brand those guilty according to each

HUMAN" engine
Arthur Bundy Makes Ma
chine Which Creates
Fuel for Power From
Oxygen Of Air.
ALMOST COMPLETED
Has air Cells and Works on
Same Principles as
Human Body.
ALMOST COMPLETED

The invention of an engine which will
work on the same principles as the hui
man body, drawing its fuel from the
oxygen of the air, is now being cOmplet-
ed by a Webster City man, Arthur Bum
dy. The machine when completed will
bring to practical use theory upon
many years-that there is way in
which the oxygen contained in the air
may be condensed so as to form fuel
for motive power.
At his shop on Seneca street Mr..
Bundy has been working on his inven-
tion for many weeks, and expects with
in few days now to have it entirely
completed. The success of the engine
is practically certain, as this is the
second Bundy has built, the first being
small test machine The machine he
is now completing, however, is large
enough for use.
Has Air Cells.
The engine is composed of very
few pieces, the most important being a
generator and series Of rotary air
cells. Into this generator certain gases
are placed which draw the oxygen from
the air. The oxygen is then distributed
through. the rotary air cells, forming
the fuel which creates the pressure for
the motive power. The same principle
has been applied as that when the Oxy-
gen is taken into the body, distributed
through the lungs, forming the fuel
which gives strength to the body for
movement.
a RXnpenno,vass
The machine upon which Buildy is
now working has capacity Of ~
horsepower and can make 1000 revOlu-
ti0ns minute. II placed In an air
plane the 1000 revolutions a minute Of
the propeller would carry the plane at
rate Of speed almost twice as great
as any has yet been able to go. An
automobile with an engine of this new
human" type would be able to travel at
a rate of 1SO or 200 miles an hour.
The cost Of the gases which are plac-
ed in the generator would he approxi-
mately Z cents for forty eight hours
for machine working constantly.
No Electricity.
There are no batteries, no spark
plugs. no gears, no ectricity OF any
kind in the mechanism of the .nsina,
and the inventor claims that it hns 32
times as much power per square inch
as any other piston engine now in use.
The parts are easily and quickly put
together. and Bundy declares they can
be disassembled and reassembled in Is
minutes.
The oxygen is forced into tue rotary
cells with such force that an explosion
occurs at every quarter turn Of the
shaft, which creates the power of the
engine.
TO Secure Patent.
Mr.. Bundy has applications for pat.
ent ready to file as soon as the engine
upon which he is now working is com.
pleted. Thus far his work has been
more or less behind closed doo;s, but
within few days he will be able to
show the invention to all those who
are interested. The various parts can
be easily manufactured and when once
put into general use several hundreds
of the engines could be manufactured
in one day. Within so days, MIR. Bun
dy expects to have the engines on the
market.
