INVENTION It COMPLETED AFTER FIVE YEARS OF HARD LAOR MADE NINE THOUSAND EXPERIMENTS. New York, Oct M. The Central Park.' North and Eaat River Railroad Company, the "Belt line," as it generally la known, has decided to replace the. bone cars on its West street line with Beach battery cars, which are equipped with Edison storage electric batteries. It means that the self-propelling electric car Is no longer an experiment but a business success, now recognised as the next step In the transit development of this city. There sre one hundred miles of horse car lines on Manhattan Island. Within a year, It Is expected, that the Beach battery car will have replaced the horse car on every one of these lines and ultimately It will take the place of the electric car with underground conduit. Street railway companies in the suburbs and in foreign countries are taking up the new car. Changes Come Gradually. The South Shore Traction Company which runs Its ears across Williamsburg bridge and out to Babylon, Long Island expects within a week to Install a two-truck storsge battery car. the first ever constructed, and now being completed at the Edison works, at Orange, N. J. In Washington, the self-propelling car soon will replace the overhead trolley on the Washington, Spa Springs Greta railroad. The trolley poles now are being pulled down In preparation for the change. The Edison storage battery didn't come all at once, but after five years of the hardest kind of hard work by Thomas A. Edison. .He spent $2,600,000, made In nine thousand different experiments, and "he now knews nine thousand things not to do," he says. He knows also how to make out of nickel and steel an electric battery that Is much lighter than the old lead storage battery Invented by Plante, and Infinitely more durable.

Cra. R. K. Cassatt of Philadelphia, Has $12,000 Worth of Jewels Stolen. TRIED TO KEEP IT. SECRET

Philadelphia, Oct 19. Through the Insertion of newspaper advertlsmeat by Mrs. Robert Kelso Cassatt, offering a reward of 9300 for the return of f 12,000 worth of Jewels which "have , mysteriously disappeared." It became known here that a scandal Is likely to shake Philadelphia society. While lira. Caasatt refuses to discuss her lost It waa learned that about a month ago, while returning in her automobile from Atlantic City, 'Jewels to the value of several thousand dollars disappeared from the car. They were In the possession of Mrs. Cassatt when she left Atlantic City. She la aure of that Had It not been for Mr. Cassatt, who le a .son of the late president of the Pennsylvania railroad, the loss or theft never would have become public. At the time the Jewels dlsappeared three of the society leaders of Philadelphia were accompanying Mrs. Cassatt from the shore, m the advertisement offering the $200 reward It is declared that the money will be paid over to the person returning the Jewels, "and no questions will be asked." , The stolen Jewels consist of a lorgnette chain forty-eight Inches long, with set diamonds one Inch apart along the length of the chain, and a diamond heart pendant containing If-ty-foor diamonds.

Washington, D. C, Oct 29. The action of the National Board for Promotion of Rifle Practice In restoring the U. S. Marine corps to second place in

the great national team rifle match, which was shot at Camp Perry in August, has met with very general approval in the rifle world, although under the plan of classification of the teams the decision will change several teams from one class to another. In

the shooting the marine corps finished second to the United States infantry

with a .score of 3,136, the , infantry score being 3,186. The U. 8. cavalry followed with 3,113. Iowa had 3.112 and the U. S. navy 3,111. All of these teams were shooting in class A in which " two trophies ' and '. four, cash prises are given, with medals to the members of each team, the first prize being the national trophy presented

y congress. The skirmish run Is the

last stage of the match' and generally speaking the final standing of the teams depends greatly on their shooting at skirmish. For some years past the U. 8. Marine corps has devoted a great deal of time and money to rifle practice. Its latest effort in the direction of. improving its shooting, and with an eye toward capturing the national trophy, being the establishment of a modern up-to-date rifle range on the Potomac river near Washington. The efforts of the marine corps to capture the prize and their sameness In defeat as well as in Incidental victories, and their readiness to help competitors in every possible way has gained for the officers and men an enviable reputation and standing in the shooting game. On the last day of the national match the marine corps team had Just started in on its skirmish run. As the first shots were fired at . 00 yards Lieutenant Randolph Coyle, U. S. M. C, who was team spotter, and who was seated behind the line looking at the targets through a telescope, sprang to his feet and in an excess of enthusiasm over the good shooting being done by the members of the team, called out . loudly, "Good wind." By this Lieutenant Coyle meant that the marine corp's skirmishers had guaged the direction and velocity of the wind correctly as evidenced by the accuracy of their shooting. Through the telescope he could see the holes In the targets made by their bullets, which were invisible to the members of the team. The rules governing the national matches are the strictest that can be devised to Insure fair play and they are vigorously and impartially enforced. One of these rules forbids all coaching in a team match, except that "a team captain may coach his men on the run," meaning the skirmish run. Lieutenant Coyle'a exclamation being called to the attention of Col

onel R. K. Evans, U. S. A., executive officer of the national matches, the latter held that it was a technical violation of the rule against coaching and penalised the marine corps by eliminating their score of 1,032 points made on the skirmish run. He did this with great reluctance as it seemed most unjust that a team whose excellent shooting entitled it to second place should be dropped clesr to the foot of the list through an Indiscretion of a non-shooting member. The elimination of the marine corps gave

the cavalry second place, Iowa third and U. S. nary fourth place. The

cavalry team,- however;- believing that

an injustice waa oetng aone to tne marine corps team, filed a protest with the acting secretary of war, who is president of the National Board for the Proomtion of Rifle Practice, against the action of Colonel Evans. It was what in court might be termed a "friendly suit" The national board being the body which makes the rules for the nstfonal matches under tne ap-

the time, reversed the decision of the executive officer and gave the marine corps team credit, for its score in the skirmish run This placed the marine corps second but-elimited the navy team from the list of prize winners in class A. One of the reasons which actuated the board in restoring the. marine corps to its proper place was the fact that had it been left at the bottom of the list it would have been pitted against the other teams in class C at the next annual tournament, which teams it easily outranks. The practical effect would be to deprive .these teams of any opportunity to win the first prize in their class, which is the Soldier of Marathon, accompanied by $300 in cash. At the matches last

year the Naval Academy team was

A WOMAN TO BE PRETTY. Must Have Luxuriant and Glassy Hair, No Matter What Color. The finest contour of a female face, the sweetest smile of a female mouth, loses something if the head is crowned with scant hair. Scant ' and falling hair, It is not knawn, is caused by a parasite that burrows into the scalp to the root of the hair, where it saps the vitality. The little white scales the germ throws up in burrowing and called - dandruff. To cure dandruff permanently, then, and to stop falling hair, that germ must be killed. Newbro's Herplclde, an entirely oew result of the chemical laboratory, destroys the dandruff germ, and, of course stops the falling hair, and prevents baldness. Sold by leading druggists.

The speed of the -cars at -this, point averages from forty to seventy miles per hour, it is claimed. Several times cars have been stopped just In time to avert serious accidents, these, Instances being when the cars were crowded. If the city car had been crowded yesterday undoubtedly fatalities would have occurred.' ' Following - the accident the Injured men were taken to their homes in the city ambulance. Reld was formerly of West Alexandria. O., but now lives with his brother on West Main street. Norris is well known, having formerly been a grocery keeper on North

Eighth street. Reid is a single man while Norris is married and has a family. '.

. Within an hour after the accident a wrecking crew was on the scene and after a few hours work had the track cleared up ready for traffic. The pas

senger car was pushed onto Its trucks 'but the machinery and trolley was so badly damaged it was necessary to pull it into the city. However after some minor repairs,, the freight in the car was damaged, cident occurred. : ; The general opinion in the neighborhood of the ' wreck is that it is wonderful that the accident had not happened before yesterday. The hill in the first place is a steep one and the view both ways is obstructed by a sharp curve and trees. The interurbans coming from the east always run through the block whether closed or open, it is said, expecting the city car men will look out for accidents.
