PETERSON FORMERLY OF PLATTSM0UTH, RECEIVES A PATENT FOR INVENTION. ELECTRIC RECORDING ' SCALE Which Weighs Automatically, And Makes Record of Same, With Tare Fcr Wagon. From Wednesday's Dally. On the return of J. C. Petersen from Excelsior Springs, Mo., where he has been at the bath house of W. A. Petersen his nephew, of whom most of the people of this city well know, although he has been away for the past ten years, and who ac companied him on his arrival this morning. Mr. Will A. Petersen who is en gaged in the business of conducting a bath house at Excelsior Springs, is also doing something along the line of invention. He has Just re ceived a patent on an electric scale, which when applied to the matter of weighing coal, grain or other commodities, connects the scale automatically, running the weight out to the desired point on the beam. which when tipped breaks the con nection, and stops the motor, and should it have gone past for any reason the connection on the lower side of the beam will make and re verse current shoving the weight backwards on the bea'm thus assur ing the correct weight, for an ac curate adjustment breaks both cur rents and leaves the scale in perfect balance. Mr. Petersen's errand here was for the purpose of having the West ern Machine Company manufacture a model of "the scale, on wjiich he has a patent, and also to manufac ture the scales for the trade. When arriving here he found Mr. Sharp the proprietor had departed for Kansas City last evening and was not able to see him today. Mr. Petersen will remain Tor over night and tomorrow to see Mr. Sharp before returning home. Besides the electric scale Mr. Petersen has also received recently a patent on a device for automatical ly coupling the pipe lines in cars. which carries the steam and air on passengers and freight cars. and would thus save the time of work men) as well as prevent their risk of life in entering between the cars for making the couplings, as they are compelled to do with the appara tus as used now. AN AFTERNOON OF CLEANING. From Wednesday's Dally. St. Mary's Guild of St. Luke's Church met at the church yester day afternoon. Each had come well armed with soap and clothes and prepared to do some cleaning. The entire afternoon was spent in giv ing the church parlors a thorough cleaning The walls were dusted, the floors swept, the pews and other furniture cleaned. In the meantime the carpets had received their share of cleaning. Those failing to ap pear on the scene will be duly fined for their absence. These fines will be added to the treasury . of St. Mary's Guild. The ladies were quite tired after their strenuous after noon but feel well repaid as the re moval of the dust and grime bright ened many a dingy corner and made it appear as new. v I wish to express my appreciation for the many kind acts of my friends, who, when trouble came fast and thick, with the loss of my dear wife, the burning of my home. and loss of stock, they so nobly re sponded to the generous impulses of love and friendship, in doing m the kindly acts, as well as making dona tions to help over financial difficul ties. Dear friends please accept my sincere thanks and may such trouble should it come to you, be mitigated by true and fast friendship to sus tain you. IVAN J. TAYLOR. ' we can later. E. J.

The status of Italy as one of the five great powers has been brought into question by her withdrawal from the peace confer ence, and it is this status which is proving a powerful lever in induc ing Italy to accept the invitation tu resume her place at the peace table. Problems incident to the disposi tion of the German colonies are left by the treaty to the great powers so that if Italy does not resume her place the treaty would exclude her frcm participating in the disposi tion of the colonies. The text of the treaty has been delivered to the printers, with the exception of some details which can be revised when the complete print ed draft is ' ready. Owing to the doubts as to Italy's status, the prot ocol of the treaty will be prepared in two forms, one including Italy as a signatory and the other omitting her. Both these forms and the en tire text of the treaty will be print ed tomorrow. The executive committee which will launch the league of nations will hold its first meeting tomorrow. President Wilson or Col E. M. House will represent the United States: Lord Robert Cecil will appear for England: Stephen Pinchon for France; Premier Venizelos , for Greece, the -Spanir ambassador for Spain, and Dr. Epitacio Pessoa for Brazil. Italy Not Represented. Italy will not be represented. The oreanization of the league will be. jjerfected. many committees appoint ed and plans probably will be draft ed for the initial meeting of the league at Washington next October. The determination of. the confer ence to begin the negotiations of a peace treaty with Austria immed iately following the delivery of the treaty to the Germans has been made known to Italy. It is expected the Austrians will arrive toward the middle of May. "Whether Hungary will be asked to join the treaty will depend upon the outcome of the present disorders there. It is said that the Austrian treaty will be featured by the outlining of the boundaries of the states newly formed from the old empire. The Bulgarian and Turkish treaties will follow, but the time for summoning the delegates from these nations has not as yet been fixed. nor Ca OtfV irV:: . . . ; ? - Vy; : TnfvYi The housewife cannot be efficient without a good modern washing machine such as a Voss.
