World's First Moving Piciure Studio 1- - , ft' if 7 . .- 4. V-m . n(nt . ll,tJH.i.J..:J8' .. i ttrr jjiCga.. .. . ...... The Old "Black Maria" Where IT was In this tarpaper shack that 1 Thomas Alva Edison made the first real moving pictures nearly 60 years ago. if it had not oeen de stroyed It would now be In the Smithsonian Museum. If Henry Ford had not given It a home at Dearborn, Mich-, where he estab lished the great shrine of Edison. One of the most curious, tacts concerning this first studio, which was known by Edison's assistants as the "Black Maria", was that It cost the trifling sum of $637.67 to build. When this Is contrasted with the millions spent on modern movie studios It Is easy to realize how the picture Industry founded by the great Inventor has grown In Importance. One of the most Interesting, although amusing incidents con nected with the birth of the movies, was when Edison decided to use Jame3 J. Corbett. the pugi list, in a feature film. Naturally a combat had to be shown and "Gen tleman Jim", who was champion of the world at the time, had to have an opponent. A notorious boxer was secured from Newark, N. J who was to face the champion-before the camera. The plan was good but when this bruiser climbed through the ropes and saw Corbett. he had a bad attack of right and left the scene as fast as Lambert Lister Dies at Home in California Former Resident Passes Away at Bur- bank, California, Where He Has Lived for 12 Years. Friends and relatives nere have received word of the death of Lam bert Lister, 73, former Plattsmouth resident, which occurred at his home in Burbank, California, the early part of the week. Mr. Lister has many old friends here who will regret to learn of his passing and share with the family the sorrow that the event has brought. The Lister family made their iome here for a number of years and some twelve years ago they removed to the Pacific coast and lo cated at Burbank, where Mr. Lister has, for the past eleven years, been connected with the Burbank Public Service department. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Lucy Lister, several sons, Theodore, Frank, James and Glenn of Burbank, E. Lister of San Pedro, California, three daughters, Mrs. Estella Rum- mel, 1824 Keelen street, Burbank, Mrs. Alice Wilson, Long Beach, and Mrs. Dorothy Stoehr of South Gate, California. The funeral services and interment were held at Burbank. TRYING TO SAVE TREES From Friday's Daily This morning representatives from the U. S. camp and rifle range north of this city, were in to interview the city officials relative to securing aid in saving the large number of small trees planted last fall and this spring in the plans for beautification and landscaping of the U. S. park. Mayor Lushnisky arranged that the old water wagon that has been out or commission for several years, might be loaned to the camp officials to be used in hauling water as well as a small section of hose to aid in pro viding moisture to the trees that so badly need it at this time. It is feared that the intense heat and lack of moisture may cause the loss of a large number of the trees if some immediate relief is not pro vided. OVERCOME BY HEAT Earl Leesley, who is employed at the rock quarries south of this city was a victim of the extreme heat Wednesday afternoon and it was necessary to have him brought on into the city. He was treated by Dr R. P. Westover and given relief. The case fortunately was not severe and it is hoped that he will be able to resume his usual activity in a short time. 9th V " r . . ..: )v..iiiIII:WMiiWI Edison Made the First Thrillers. possible. However, a substitute was found and the picture was taken. There were a number of curious features about this first studio. It was set on a pivot so that It could "follow the sun" and the roof rolled back to allow sunlight to be used on the action that was being shot. There was no scenery and the whole thing was a far cry from the luxurious and highly scientific sets and equipment now used. Some time later Edison estab lished a fine studio near Bronx Park In New York and for a num ber of years pictures were taken there that were seen all over the world. Edison's creative ability backed by his refusal to ever "take a lick ing" was what made modern movies possible. It is In the hope of finding some one who will go forward with his indomitable spirit that The Thomas Alva Edison Foundation, of which Owen D. Young Is National Chairman, is establishing a living memorial to the great inventor. This will take the form of one hundred Edison Scholars each year, who will be selected from all the country and given the opportunity to secure the scientific training needed to de velop their talents. Fire Destroys Threshing Out fit Thursday Machine Used to Thresli at the Home of Jack Wagner South of Louis ville Destroyed by Fire. While Bobbie Vogler was thresh ing at the home of Jack Wagner, some two and a half miles south of Louisville on Thursday afternoon about 1:30, he was overheated and suffered severe burns when the threshing machine caught on fire. A loud report came and the threshing machine as well as the rack load of sheaves which were being fed into the machine, caught fire, frightening the team which ran away and scattered burning sheaves over the stubble which also ignited, add ing more trouble. Bobbie Vogler fought like a true warrior to extinguish the flames and save tne threshing machine, straw and wheat being threshed. Others helped, but only after considerable damage had been sustained. The ma chine was practically ruined. The alarm was given and the fire depart ment and many citizens from Louis ville were soon on the scene and as sisting in extinguishing the fire. Bobbie Vogler was hastened to town and Drs. Worthman rendered aid in restoring the young man to his normal condition. He was very much overheated and also suffered severe burns, but after persistent treatment was feeling better. Besides the machine and the grain, both threshed and unthreshed. an automobile and trailer were burned DIES AT MASONIC HOME The death of Curtis W. Ribble, 80 occurred Thursday afternoon at the Nebraska Masonic Home, where since May 14, 1930, he has made his home He has been in failing health for the past few years and his feeble condi tlon gave but little hope of his re covery.

Murfin is now employed at the government operated quarry east of Weeping Water, going to work the middle of last week. Phillip Coatman, of Alvo, was look ing after some business matters in the vicinity of Wabash, calling on a number of farmers during the day.

Mr. Pat- erson is well acquainted here and was pleased to meet many of his friends during the short time he was in town. Mrs. Henrietta Lawton was very sick at her home in Wabash last Sunday and had to have the services of a physician, but with good treat ment and good nursing she was feel ing better during the week and was able to be up and about again. P. H. Clarke has been the feeder of the company threshing machine, and while it was a very warm job and required long hours every day, he stuck to it until the last job was completed and the machine hauled to the shed, where it will remain until the harvest of next year. Emil Bauer and family were guests at the home of Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Gerbeling last Sunday. Mrs. Bauer is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gerbe ling.

Joe Rudolph and family, of Eagle, were in Wabash last Tuesday, coni ng over for the day in order that Mrs. Rudolph might assist at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Fred Weyers, where they were threshing, and say it was hot and the work was heavy. They are all glad that the threshing has been completed. The company threshing machine has been kept plenty busy getting the work done for the farmers of this vicinity. Last Thursday the machine finished up threshing at the home of Albert Poole, having then but. two more jobs ahead of it, for E. Golden and Frank Ohms, both of which have now been completed. Health Better Now With a little rest from the arduous task of working nearly night and day in caring for the wheat that has been coming to the Farmers Grain company, which he manages, John C. Browne has recovered rapidly from is brief illness, and is again back at the elevator looking after business. He has retained help to look after the work, however, so the duties will not fall so heavily on his shoulders. The grain has been coming in stead ily for some time, in trucks, wagons and trailers pulled by autos, and a good deal of work Is required to take care of it, get it loaded into cars and ready for shipment. Frank Reese is putting in part of his time there re pairing the cars before they are load ed to prevent even small leaks, as $1 a bushel wheat is much too valu able to have spilled out along the right-of-way.
