atltiK no imiind of t'lio clonn Htaplo
from tliu Ht'od wuh a dny'a work for
a negro woman.
Suddenly Mm. Greene turned to
tliuin. "Gontlemen," hIio Hald, "ap
ply to my friend hero, .Mr. Whitney;
he can make anything." And she
showed tliuin several contrivances
the young Northerner had made.
Whitney modestly said that ho
did not. know how successful he
would lio. hut' that ho would try.
In a fow weeks ho produced a modul,
consisting of a wooden cylinder en
circled hy rows of slender spikes set
half an Inch apart, which extended
Imtween tho bars of a grid set so
closely together that tho seeds could
not pass, hut the lino was pulled
through hy tho revolving Hplkes, and
t'm seed fell Into another compart
ment. This manhlno could clean
fifty pounds or cotton a day, as
compared with ono pound a day
denned hy hand.
Whitney formed n partnership
with 1'hlneas Miller, who Inter mar
ried Mrs. Greene, and they built
a factory at New Haven to make
cotton gins. Thin place was burned
to the ground In March, 1705, and
the partners wore plunged Into debt.
Several Infringements of their pat
ent then appeared to discourage
them still more, and It was not un
til 1X07 that Whitney's rlglits were
established.
In tho meanwhile, however, the
inventor became disgusted with tho
struggle and commenced manufac
turing firearms for the Government.
This proved profitable, and Whitney
greatly improved tho way of mak
ing arms. Hut from tho cotton gin
ho received llttlo revenue.
Ills last' years were the happiest.
In IS 17 ho married Henrietta Kd
wards, tho youngest daughter of
.hid go Plerpont Hdwards of Connec

Soon after this he went to Paris,
and built a submarine, tho "Nau
tilus." This boat was tried In
Hrest Harbor in ISO I before a com
mission appointed by Napoleon Hon
nparto and Fulton succeeded In
blowing up a small vessel anchored
there for thnt purpose. Two years
later at Paris ho also was success
ful in propelling a boat' 1y steam
power.
Fulton returned to America and
In partnership with Robert Livings
ton constructed the first American
steambont, the "Clermont." This
was launched In tho spring of 1807,
and Its success caused a great son
nation. Tho principle of propelling
boats by stunin wns now. proved.
The "Clermont" was soon establish
ed as a regular passage- boat bo
tween Now York and Albany.
Fulton built tho "Domologos," or
"Fulton tho First," for the United
States Government during tho years
1814 nnd 181G. This was tho first
steam battleship over constructed.
In February, 1815, tho Inventor
caught cold from exposure and rap
idly became worse. On February
24th ho died, mourned by evoryono
who had known tho man and his
achlovomont8.

Henry Ford, of Ford Company,
Talks Interesting of Auto
mobile Development.
Cloodroads (loodrum, who Is now
lu Detroit getting "good dope" on
tho now automobiles direct from
tho ractorles whore they are made,
writes Interestingly from that city
of tho sights ho Is seeing and the
facts he Is learning about autos.
Of course he visited the home or
tho Ford nnd endeavored to get a
Hue on the hit lire development or
tho automobile from tho head of
the house of Ford. Hero is tho
way tho story runs:
" 'What do you think tho evolu
tion of tho motor car will ultimately
produce?'
"Henry Ford turned and smiled
slightly. 'Tell mo, what do you
moan?' he replied. 'The clumsy
two-wheeled cart of tho world's
youth evolved into the luxurious
landau; the Montgolflcr balloon,
lifted by hot air, dovoloped into tho
Curtis biplane. In what way will
tliu motor car of tho future differ
from tho first Ford motor car?'
"Mr. Ford passed a hand over his
Iron gray hair and his oyes took on
a contemplative look. Tho man who
ro-creatcd Sinbad's diamond valley
out of his mechanician's brain was
thinking of tho painful early path.
It suggested that eagle Nights or
200 or 300 years do not belong
to the Inventor, but toilsome days
and wakeful nights with infinites
imal progress.
" 'Lightness Is what wo are striv
ing for moro than any other thing,'
ho said. 'It will not be long be
fore tho present 1300-pound motor
enr will bo reduced In welgnt to
500 pounds. This will mean great
er speed and somewhat lower price.
Hut' tho prlco cannot bo greatly de
creased because lighter material de
mands greater strength and crafts
manship,
" 'Although I am not n speed en
thuslast, my aim being to Increase
comfort, I seo no reason why motor
cars should not eventually attain
150 or 200 miles an hour. Rut
there would bo no room for pedes
trlans on streets used by Biich ma
chines. They would roqulro special
highways. In fact, rails would
probably bo tho propor thing, Jiibi
as wo havo rails now for our rail
road trains.'
" 'Would gasoline as used fur
nlsh sufficient power for these light,
speedy machines?'
" 'Oh yes, though it might bo
necessary to mingle other liquids.'
" 'Wouldn't friction sot on flro
a motor car going at 200 miles an
hour unless somo now lubricant
were employed?'
" 'Hy no means; wo havo dyna
mos that run ror n whole year with
ono application or lubricating oil.'
"And this was as far as Henry
Ford would go In snatching motor
secrets from tho future."
