SCIENTISTS SCOFF AT BOTTLED LIGHT Declare That Tomadelli’s Claim Is Preposterous New York, May 9.—"Bottled sun-| light,” a bulb which its inventor Juan J. Tomadelli claimed would burn three years without gl!onunn. was de-, clared to ba contrary to all scientific laws by experts-testifying for the state at the trial yesterday of the injunc- tion suit to resttain further sale of stock in the Tomadelli Electronic eor-: poration, the promoting company, Common sea salt, tin and copper were the elements which, Tomadelll asserted, burned-in the lamp, Dr. Clay- | ton H, Sharp testified. “You might as well screw a plug of wood into an electric socket and expect light,”” Dr. Sharp sald. Describing a visit to the Toma@elll plant at Harrison, N, J., Dr. Sharp sald the bulbs, fitted up with the copper and tin wiring and salt, were lald on a rack, Charging machinery which was supposed to obtain electronic energy from the air, he said, was to light the bulbs. Dr. Sharp satd he was not allowed ng machinery ' in t was too “danger- ous” He demonstrated for State Referce Newburger in court that it , was possible to produce a glow in * Tomadelll's lamps by ordinary electri- cal means, but also showed that the Jamps would cease to glow as soon as a8 induction apparatus was removed.

With Swinging of Fists | Sheridan, Wyo. May 9—Dr. William | Frackelton of this city, who ptoduced “adopted” by the Crow Indians, tells of the first reproduction of the Custer massacre ever staged. The part of the Sioux Indians was played by 200 Crows ,and local na- tional guard troops were Custer's men In the midst of the mimic battle Blue Bead, one of the Indians, insisted on capturing the American flag. This was not in the rehearsal, and imme- diately the “dead” troopers rose and returned to action, Blue Bead was shot from behind with the wadding from a blank cartrdige. A battle roy- al with fists ensued. As Dr. Frackel- was ton expressed it, “Custer avenged.” soon ¢ TO HAVE AIRPLAN London, May 9.—Designed to fly at {100 miles an hour with 800 horse- | power engines, carry 14 passengers and complete «the journey between nd Brusscls in less than two at airplanes of Brit. early completed at a facto¥y necar Brussels.

Kro-Flite EXPERTS AVER LOST HEAT COSTS MILLIONS YEARLY | Fix $150,000,000 as Fuel Tax Paid by the Home Owners in the United States. Chicago, May 9.—An unusual fuel tax of $450,000,000 for the United States “is approximately the price paid by home owners and tenants for | building standards of the United | States, which'are extravagant of fuel,” | | acel g to a survey completed here by the Buréau of Industrial Research, which extended into all parts of the| country and in which a number of state universities cooperated, y\What is described as “the wasteful | standard of construction” will be ! maintained in bulldings to be erected | !this year, the survey says, and adds | that this will add “many more mil- lions to the fuel tax and be passed on to tenants in requirements for exces- | sive rents to cover the fuel waste.” “The fuel consumed in 16,000,000 homes of northern states is fully 30 I percent and probably 50 percent more than would be necessary if standards | were maintained in materials,” the | survey reports, “The heat which pnurl' {upward through ‘he roof of buildings | in Chicago, New York and every oth-| |er large city where artificial heat is | requirad during part of the year, rep- | resents a wasted expenditure of fully | a billion dollars every four ycars, for | 60 percent of the heat produced by | burning expensive fuel under present {The time honored fallacy that air ‘spucol between roof and upper celling | | serve 1o stop heat loses is discredit- | | ed. | ALLING RUBBER COMPANY 240 MAIN STREET A Few Days Only, We Will Sell Automobile Tires At Reduced Prices GOLF SUPPLIES | Clubs—$2.00 to $7.50.
