ENTERTAINMENT
DREW FULL HOUSE
The entertainment given under the auspices or the St. Cecelia's choir Sunday evening
drew a packed house and was a
very creditable exhibition. Al-
r tho the program was rather
long, there being a drama in
two acts and a comedy in one
act besides numerous musical
selections, both vocal and instrumental, yet the interest did
not nag and everybody w? s well
satisfied with the evening's entertainment. Our space will
not permit us to comment upon the performance in detail
but we might mention that the
selections rendered by the male
quartette and the orchestra music were especially fine.

INVENTION BY
P. W. BLAKE
P. W. Blake has received advice from his attorney in Washington that his idea as to a nut
loci, to be used at points where
railroad rails join, seems to be
a novel one and that no such
patent has been applied for.
Tiie new idea which Mr. Blake
is having patented is a lock
which the inventor believes will
take because of its simplicity.
Over the nuts, which are thru
the Iish plates and rail, is
dropped a bar in which have
been cut grooves to correspond
with the surfaces of the nuts.
The surfaces of the nuts and
grooves of the bar are tappered
in such a manner that when the
bar is dropped over the nuts
and into place, a dovetail is
formed and the bolts secured a-
gainst slipping. The inventor
holds that after these Jocks
have been installed the work of
maintaining the road will be
considerably lessened.—Transcript.

in the' opposite direction for the rest
of the journey, during which the same
