COOL .WAYSIDE SPRING IN HEAT OK TROUBLE
Portland Man Invents Pole
Which Will Probably Bo
Adopted Throughout the
CountryAttached AVith
Springs, Does Not Go Wild
If the Invention which O. M. Wood
ward, an ex-motorman on the Portland
Electric, railway, has been working on
for years proves to be a success when
It Is given a tryout by Prenldant
Joaselyn and other officials of the Port
land Railway , company tomorrow, tha
problem of how to pievent wild trolley
poles from tearing down wires will be
solved- and Woodward will become rlon
beyond the dreams of avarice.
For six years Woodward has been
working on his Invention. He was a
motorrnan for the local street railway
company prior to that time, but left
the car to work out his Idea of a per
fect trolley pole. His Invention was
completed laaV week and was seen yes
terday for the first time by other than
street railway employes.
The pole worked perfectly at yester
day's tryout, and was pronounced by all
who saw it as a splendid piece of work
and an undoubted success. The con
trivance is eciulpped with a double set
which act In such way that the moment
the trolley pole leaves the wire It is
Jerked down to the roof of the car and
held in place, thus allowing the car to
fo on any distance with no danger to
he span or guy wire. Numerous other
inventions have been made with the
view or overcoming this tendency of a
wild trolley pole to tear down the wire's,
but 11 have so far been failures.
It 'is altogether probable that If the
Invention is a success It will be adopted
by the Portland Railway, Light &
Power company, and all the city cars
equipped with it. Woodward Is a native
of Vermont and has been a resident of
Portland for 30 years. He has the ut
most confidence In the successful out
come of his Invention believing that he
naa'a trolley pole that
way
forced to adopt.

Kelly had no idea of Portland beln

Three fires, with slight damage, was
the record for the daylight hours of the

Independence day celebration, but
property owners have filed no com
plaints on that score.

J.-T. Concannon's grocery store at the
corner of Johnson and Twenty-first
streets started a blase that was quickly
extinguished by the department with
out damage to building or contents.
A blaze. suDiiosed to have been start
ed by a firecracker on the mossy roof
or a rooming-nouse at sj jvonn Bixm
street, was put out by tne aepartmenu
