An Inven tton haa been perfected which, when put Into general us by the eleotrlo coro paniea, may be the means of saving nay lives, for It la deelgned to pre vent the number of accidents which would otherwise occur among linemen and other workera by their coming- contact with the wlrea. hraTrlVnrhnTnl with the dangerous current. The plan la to ao distinguish the wires that any one may tell at a glance which wires are dangerous and which are not The plan Is simple and much more easily put Into general use than the burying of the wires. Insulators upon which are placed wires carrying sufficient cur rent to destroy life are colored a light red or wine color. Tie-Wire Safety Bevlee. Other wires of 'less potentiality are made of any contrasting color, such as ' the usual color of glass. The heavily charged wlrea are In this distinguished easily from the other wlrea and are mora readily avoided. Another featnre of the Invention la the arrangement of the tie wires, which are utilised to tie the wlrea to the Insu lators in such a way as te prevent otner protection to workmen and. the public. eorge w. carter or tma mace is tne Inventor and Is a linemen of experience, fully acquainted with the dangers to which these laborers are daily sub jected, and the Idea has grown out of a great need. A patent has been ap plied for. Xxplaaatlon of Insulators. In practice It Is advisable to distin guish between wires that sre carrvlna a sufficient current of electricity to be come dangerous to life from other wires that sre carrying a current of lesser fotentiality. In carrying out this fea ure of the Invention the bodv of the Oregon No. 1 la made of a light red or wine color and la marked with distin guishing lettera and flrures. And this with the color will Indicate to any per- I son that the line wire that Is attached to the Insulation carries a current of sufficient power to make the same dan gerous to life. The other Insulator. Oregon No. J. has Its body manufactured In the usual color of glass and is also marked with aietinguismng isiiers ana ngures. The Insulator bodies are grooved for the reception of a line wire and a tie wire and are provided at their upper ends with means for securing a tie wire. The peg on which the insulator bodies fit are also provided with means for engagement of the tie wire, this tie wire being utilised to hold the line wire to the insulators and thus prevent cross ing of the line wires or sagging, thus protecting the public as well as work men from coming In contact with dan- serous wires. This Invention is fully protected and is termed the "two-color design. The inventor, O. W. Carter, of Can yonville. Oregon, Is a practical line man, having been employed by the Pa cine Telephone TelegTapo company as meir agem ana uneman ior me past Ave years.
