Congressman Peterson named Frank Retterath postmaster at Goodland to succeed A. J. Kitt, whose time has expired. The” J asper County Democrat, which is an-ti-Peterson, says the appointment was “another mistake,” as ninetenths of the democrats at Goodland were for Arthur Spinney. The Democrat is in a class by itself when it comes to stirring up factional party troubles and an effort is made to create dissatisfaction at Goodland by the following sentence with which The Democrat concludes its article: “Spinney’s friends, who are legion in Goodland Newton county, are sure to resent Mr. Peterson’s ill-advised choice for postmaster at Goodland.”

BATHTUB UNDER SINK.

Complete); Concealed oy Board Partition When Not In Use. A hidden bathtub that- is convenient in several situations has been invented by an> Ohio man. It is useful in flats and tenements, where room is at a premium, or in houses that are otherwise spacious enough, but have no tub in which the servants may bathe. Ths tub, oddly t enough is in the kitchen, and stands under the sink, the water from the latter flowing through a drain beside it The wooden partition belo z the sink completely conceals the tub, but folds together on hinges like shutters, and «an be folded back out of the way whenever the maid wants to take a bath. Or the partition could be built solid and the top made re-

movable so that the sink and the shelf alongside it could be lifted off. Whichever plan is used it answers the purpose of providing a tub for persons who otherwise would have to resort to the ui atlsfactory sponge bath in their bedrooms.

Scale Records Weight.

A rather elaborate apparatus in the scale line has been patented by a Michigan man. It is nothing less than a scale which records the weights of various objects opposite any name on a sheet of paper it carries for that purpose. The device has a printing mechanism at the back which moves on a carrier like that on a typewriter. It is on this carrier that the paper rests so that any name may be shifted in line with the printing apparatus. The object to be weighed is hung on a hook which projects

Registers on Side, Too.

from beneath, and as soon as the weight is felt the type bearing that figure is engaged and can be thrown on the paper. The weight is also recorded on a dial at the side of the scale, so that it can be seen without reading the paper. There are various uses for such an apparatus, one of them being in manufacturing establishments where records are kept of individual work, or in butcher shops where records are kept of individual sales.

WIRELESS UNDER WATER.

May Prevent Loss of Life In Submarines. By means of an underwater wireless system two brothers, John S. Shea and Daniel S. Shea, who served as volunteer officers during the SpanishAmerican war, hope they will be able to prevent loss of life in disasters among the submarine fleets of the world. Their invention, it is declared, will allow communication from the bed of the ocean with vessels on the surface and wit' land stations. They hope to have the system available for all submarine vessels. A mast is mounted on a buoyant support or raft carried by the submarine and is equipped with a yardarm for the receiving wires of a wireless system. This mast can be used for the visible code, too, wher the vessel is at the top. Another feature of the Invention is that the mast is serviceable in assisting in rescuing the crew when the submarine becomes disabled while submerged.

An Electric Carpet

The latest electric invention is the electric carpet for heating rooms. It was originated in Paris. The under side of the new carpet consists of a network of steel wires [ through which the current is equally distributed in all directions. It is said that the codt of the new form of heating will be less than that of any known system; indeed, it is estimated that a room fitted with one of these carpets can be heated at a totarcost of a penny an hour. f
