THE WORLD ON WHEELS
Komnxknbto Invention of a I'lttsliuru
IMillnntlirnplst
Pittsburg Dispatch * lho woilrt un
doubted ! ! move ! , nnd now an ingenious
inventor hns arisen in out midst who
protiosos thnt our tirbnn population
shall got n move on " Llko all men of
genius this intontor is modest nnd re
fuses to discloao his nnmo to tlio public
Nolthcr does ho seolt foi any pecuniaiy
reward , but donates his idea to a
hustling and ofttlmos woati poopta
'lho invention , which isto revolution
ize locomotion in titles , is n sorics of
traveling sidownlks , romposod of slats
on nn endless ohnln , llko the floor of a
horse jiovvoi niotoi Klcctrlo motors ,
stationed nt sultnblo distances , will fur
nish the power tomovo these Bldoivalks
nt a rate ot four miles an hour As lho
• xverngo pedestrian possesses a thioo-
milo gait this will enable a man to travel
ensili nt the rate of sov on miles nn hour
Onlv half the sldovvnlk will navel , that
portion nearest the house line being
stntionniy
The cost of constructing nnd main
taining these sidowulks , it Is suggostcd ,
shall bo dofiajed bj genoial taxation
It is also oxpneted th it lLo money nnd
ether tnluablos accldentallj dropped
through the slots In the pavement will
form i sinking fund which will mater
ullj lighten taxation
Ihoroaro , of couiso , some objections
to this innovation It may bo said that
it will icquiro some piactlco to stop on
nnd oil the sidewalks without taking a
tumble The inventor rails attention to
the fact thutthoAmeiicancitl/onpiottv
gonoralli gets on and oil horse and
cable cais while in motion While the
fairer and vvcakei ox might oxpurlonco
some dilllculty In getting tlio knack ,
still they ( an return to the use of the
bustle until they become moHciont
To prevent collisions at strcot eor-
nors the electric sldowalk will bo car
iled undoi ground at crossings
Some c tution will bo nccossarv Tor
instance , if a solid cltl/on with u family
basket full of groceries stops at the coi-
tioi of Tifth uud Smlthflld to argue the
political situation , and in the heat of
discussion places the basket on the
moving sldovvnlk , ho may suddenly
awake to the fact that ho was unwit
tingly donated a good Sundaj dinner to
some unknown but doubtless deserving
South Side family
Agtln , suppose a fond mother with
the family treasure in a bib * , buggy
stops olT the sidewalk to investigate
some dross goods maiUcd down bolovv
zero , it may be uccossary to telephone
to the folks of the road to head oil the
wandering hoii
Another souico of trouble will nriso
from the fneb that the sidewalks on
either side of the stcot move in opposite -
ito directions Mr Allnight will start
for home nt 1 a m , nftcr spending a
pleasint evening with the bo\s Ho
headsLivvronceviilo at a two mllc-an
hour gait , but , aftei walking foi two or
thico horns , unaccountably linds him
self iu Buminghniu/ has meioly
taken the wrong side of Smithllcd
strcot , and has been walking on a side
walk that is traveling backward at the
rate of four miles an houi
The advantages cln'racd ' for this In
vention are numerous and startling ,
and but a few of the moio sti iking will
bo mentioned Iu the Inst plaeo thoio
will no longer bonny necessity foi street
cirs , and there will bo mote loom in
the roadway for vehicles
No ouo would ciy aloud for the cutting
down of the hump " The sidewalk
would tun el as easily up hill as upon a
level
In sutnmor , the memboi of the Tat
Mans club , to whom locomotion was a
burden , would lcavo his List I nd tesi-
donco in the morning , caiijing a camp
stool and fan With a good cigar in his
mouth , and boated on the shady side of
the stieot , ho would placidly read a
newspaper while being easily nndswifllv
can led to olflco or store
Tbo pohco could sloop upon their
beats and no one could grumble If a
citizen wanted an ollicor ho would sim
ply wait until ono was cairicd by aud
then waken him up Again , wo could
atiolish the patiol wagon system All
olllcers would bo selected for their
weight When a criminal was captured
ho would bo thrown upon the sldowalk
nnd 260 pounds of municipal authority
would sit upon him until the police sta
tion was reached , when the oOcndor
would bo lunked into a cell
Moving day would bo deprived of
many of its horrors The express wagon
with the biokon springs diawn bv a
hoibO whoso bones ruttlo , and dm en
by nn autooiat , could not renlizo $ o for
moving a load of furnituio three blocks
The citl/.en would divide his famllj
into two companies Ono would st iv at
the old homo and cairy the furniture
onto the sidowillt , while the other con
tingent would sLina in front of the now
house und identify and drag oil their
household goods as they came sailing
up the strcot
Thp sttongest objections agninst pa
rades would bo i amoved In times of
great political excitement , on the eve ,
saj.of a presidential election , the en
thusiastic republican and democrat
could tu n out in gala array without the
awful anticipation of walking over
miles ot cobblestones , ot plunging
through mud up to his nnklos Neither
need ho dread the awful spectacle of
strong mon breaking from the ranks
andimpaiiing the boautj and solidity
of the column when a saloon was being
passed
All that would bo changed The
parade would form on the best street in
the city , wnich would bo swept and
decorated foi the occasion , and thoio
the bravo voters would stand , shoulder
ing imitation muskets nnd blowing real
horns , while the populnco would piss
by ana review thorn ftom the oloctrio
sidewalks And if a member of the
Thirty-seventh Ward club became
dUzy , how easy it would bo to attribute
it to watching the human-freighted
sidewalks going around

And bo they had , but-for some unac
countable ronsot ) had fotgotton all about
the oloctrio sidewalk on their return ,
nnd walked close to thu houses where
thopnvomont was solid , while Teidl-

There is noond to the possibilities of
this invention 'lho originntoi thinks
the sidewalks would soon become so pop
ular that the idea would be carried fui
thor , nnd wo would have rapid transit
